Corrosion Behavior of Duplex Stainless Steel in Industrial White Liquor
Authors: Esteves Luiza , Schvartzman Mônica M.A.M. , Reis da Costa Campos Wagner , Lins Vanessa F.C. 
Published: December 2017

Specimens of lean duplex and duplex stainless steel were exposed at 200°C in industrial white liquor from a Brazilian kraft mill using an autoclave to simulate the same conditions of digester processing. Tafel extrapolation method and weight loss were used to evaluate corrosion behavior of duplex steel in white liquor. The higher alloy steel, although presenting a lower corrosion rate than the lean duplex, presents a more severe selective attack on ferrite, at 200°C and 1.8 MPa, after Tafel extrapolation method in industrial white liquor.
Traduzir À Petites Pierres de Gustave Akakpo: a escrita heterogênea e a questão dos provérbios
Authors: Araújo Ferreira Alice Maria 
Published: December 2017

As questões que apresentamos neste artigo resultam das discussões que tivemos durante a experiência da tradução da peça À petites pierres de Gustave Akakpo, que realizamos com os alunos de tradução francês da Universidade de Brasília, Rodrigo D’avila, Jana Araújo e Dyhorrani Beira, a pedido da Profa. Maria da Glória Magalhães dos Reis, coordenadora do Grupo En classe et en scène (UnB). O desafio levou-nos a discutir questões teóricas, éticas, históricas, epistemológicas advindas dos problemas do traduzir como exercício de leitura e escrita, de uma poética do traduzir (Meschonnic, 1999). Dentre as diversas questões que se colocaram, discutimos aqui aquelas ligadas ao traduzir, um texto dramático (uma farsa trágica/uma tragédia farsa), uma poética migrante (heterogeneidade), e um duelo de provérbios (gestus de linguagem).
O Direito Constitucional Comparado entre renascimento e consolidação
Authors: Dutra Deo Campos , Ribas Vieira José 
Published: December 2017

O presente estudo possui essencialmente dois objetivos principais. O primeiro deles consiste em realizar uma análise crítica do processo que se designa de "renascimento" do Direito Constitucional Comparado. Esse renascimento, por sua vez, tem lugar particularmente na academia norte-americana, e é resultado direto do movimento de internacionalização do Direito Constitucional. Essa nova realidade impõe concomitantemente novas perspectivas para o estudo desta área do Direito. A principal delas, objeto segundo de nosso trabalho, é a compreensão da nova modelagem dada atualmente ao Direito Constitucional Comparado. O estudo do Direito Comparado, hoje, se apresenta como parte integrante de um quadro teórico em que um dos principais objetivos é a sua instrumentalização de novas propostas de transformações políticas para as democracias liberais ocidentais.
Quantification of an atmospheric nucleation and growth process as a single source of aerosol particles in a city
Authors: Salma Imre , Varga Veronika , Németh Zoltán 
Published: December 2017

Abstract. Effects of a new aerosol particle formation (NPF) and particle diameter growth process as a single source of atmospheric particle number concentrations were evaluated and quantified on the basis of experimental data sets obtained from particle number size distribution measurements in the city centre and near-city background of Budapest for 5 years. Nucleation strength factors for a nucleation day (NSFNUC) and for a general day (NSFGEN) were derived separately for seasons and full years. The former characteristic represents the concentration increment of ultrafine (UF) particles specifically on nucleation days with respect to accumulation-mode (regional background) concentrations (particles with equivalent diameters of 100–1000 nm; N100−1000) due solely to the nucleation process. The latter factor expresses the contribution of nucleation to particle numbers on general days; thus, it represents a longer time interval such as season or year. The nucleation source had the largest effect on the concentrations around noon and early afternoon, as expected. During this time interval, it became the major source of particles in the near-city background. Nucleation increased the daily mean concentrations on nucleation days by mean factors of 2.3 and 1.58 in the near-city background and city centre, respectively. Its effect was largest in winter, which was explained by the substantially lower N100−1000 levels on nucleation days than those on non-nucleation days. On an annual timescale, 37 % of the UF particles were generated by nucleation in the near-city background, while NPF produced 13 % of UF particles in the city centre. The differences among the annual mean values, and among the corresponding seasonal mean values, were likely caused by the variability in controlling factors from year to year. The values obtained represent the lower limits of the contributions. The shares determined imply that NPF is a non-negligible or substantial source of particles in near-city background environments and even in city centres, where the vehicular road emissions usually prevail. Atmospheric residence time of nucleation-mode particles was assessed by a decay curve analysis, and a mean of 02:30 was obtained. The present study suggests that the health-related consequences of the atmospheric NPF and growth process in cities should also be considered in addition to its urban climate implications.
Structural analysis of S-wave seismics around an urban sinkhole: evidence of enhanced dissolution in a strike-slip fault zone
Authors: Wadas Sonja H. , Tanner David C. , Polom Ulrich , Krawczyk Charlotte M. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract. In November 2010, a large sinkhole opened up in the urban area of Schmalkalden, Germany. To determine the key factors which benefited the development of this collapse structure and therefore the dissolution, we carried out several shear-wave reflection-seismic profiles around the sinkhole. In the seismic sections we see evidence of the Mesozoic tectonic movement in the form of a NW–SE striking, dextral strike-slip fault, known as the Heßleser Fault, which faulted and fractured the subsurface below the town. The strike-slip faulting created a zone of small blocks ( < 100 m in size), around which steep-dipping normal faults, reverse faults and a dense fracture network serve as fluid pathways for the artesian-confined groundwater. The faults also acted as barriers for horizontal groundwater flow perpendicular to the fault planes. Instead groundwater flows along the faults which serve as conduits and forms cavities in the Permian deposits below ca. 60 m depth. Mass movements and the resulting cavities lead to the formation of sinkholes and dissolution-induced depressions. Since the processes are still ongoing, the occurrence of a new sinkhole cannot be ruled out. This case study demonstrates how S-wave seismics can characterize a sinkhole and, together with geological information, can be used to study the processes that result in sinkhole formation, such as a near-surface fault zone located in soluble rocks. The more complex the fault geometry and interaction between faults, the more prone an area is to sinkhole occurrence.
Hierarchical creep cavity formation in an ultramylonite and implications for phase mixing
Authors: Gilgannon James , Fusseis Florian , Menegon Luca , Regenauer-Lieb Klaus , Buckman Jim 
Published: December 2017

Abstract. Establishing models for the formation of well-mixed polyphase domains in ultramylonites is difficult because the effects of large strains and thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical feedbacks can obscure the transient phenomena that may be responsible for domain production. We use scanning electron microscopy and nanotomography to offer critical insights into how the microstructure of a highly deformed quartzo-feldspathic ultramylonite evolved. The dispersal of monomineralic quartz domains in the ultramylonite is interpreted to be the result of the emergence of synkinematic pores, called creep cavities. The cavities can be considered the product of two distinct mechanisms that formed hierarchically: Zener–Stroh cracking and viscous grain-boundary sliding. In initially thick and coherent quartz ribbons deforming by grain-size-insensitive creep, cavities were generated by the Zener–Stroh mechanism on grain boundaries aligned with the YZ plane of finite strain. The opening of creep cavities promoted the ingress of fluids to sites of low stress. The local addition of a fluid lowered the adhesion and cohesion of grain boundaries and promoted viscous grain-boundary sliding. With the increased contribution of viscous grain-boundary sliding, a second population of cavities formed to accommodate strain incompatibilities. Ultimately, the emergence of creep cavities is interpreted to be responsible for the transition of quartz domains from a grain-size-insensitive to a grain-size-sensitive rheology.

Authors: Perin Santos Jovania Maria 
Published: December 2017

RESUMO: Este estudo se propõe a analisar uma unidade didática para alunos iniciantes - do nível Básico 1 - do curso de PLE (Português como Língua Estrangeira) elaborado por professores do Celin-UFPR (Centro de Línguas e Interculturalidade da Universidade Federal do Paraná). Com esta análise, procura-se elucidar carências e melhorias que possam ser implementadas no material a fim de contribuir para o seu aprimoramento. O estudo parte do conceito de que há a necessidade de se produzirem materiais específicos para públicos específicos. A análise da unidade didática será feita tendo como direcionamento a Abordagem Comunicativa e o Letramento Crítico conforme descrito por Mattos e Valério (2010) e o Ensino de Línguas por Tarefas de acordo com Santos (2014). Para a elaboração de materiais didáticos de ensino de línguas e especialmente de PLE em imersão parece ser aceitável que mais do que uma corrente teórica seja utilizada, desde que sejam complementares. O artigo defende que a habilidade em combinar diferentes procedimentos teóricos confere qualidade à proposta de ensino. Inicialmente será apresentada a fundamentação teórica e as diretrizes que farão parte do estudo. Na sequência, haverá uma breve descrição da unidade didática em questão e em seguida a sua análise e sugestões para melhoria.

Gedomineerde en aanpalende markten – enkele opmerkingen bij NS Limburg
Was het misbruikverbod in de Nederlandse mededingingspraktijk lange tijd een rustig, zo niet wat ingeslapen bezit, met het zeer uitvoerige boetebesluit waarmee de ACM de gang van zaken rond de aanbesteding in 2014 van de OV-concessie Limburg afstraft, is aan die rust voorlopig een einde gekomen. Voor mededingingsjuristen biedt de ACM stof tot nadenken met een op onderdelen innovatieve aanpak, die echter de analyse van de effecten van het gestelde misbruik stiefmoederlijk bedeelt.

The bats of the Congo and of Rwanda and Burundi revisited (Mammalia: Chiroptera)
Authors: Van Cakenberghe Victor , Gembu Tungaluna Guy-Crispin , Musaba Akawa Prescott , Seamark Ernest , Verheyen Erik 
Published: December 2017

In 1966, Robert William Hayman, Xavier Misonne and Walter Verheyen published their listing of the Congolese, Rwandan and Burundian bat specimens in the collections in the museums of Tervuren, Brussels, Geneva, London and New York. In the fifty years that have passed since, some major changes have been introduced in the taxonomy of the Chiroptera: new species have been discovered, species have been split off, species have been moved to other genera, and additional material has been collected. We re-evaluated the data presented by Hayman et al., and supplemented this with specimen records found in the literature and in online catalogs. This resulted in 136 species, represented by 20 231 specimens (compared to 113 species and 8567 specimens originally). When available, we also recorded additional information such as locality, sex and age, collector, collection date and preservation type of the voucher specimen. The distribution maps of the Congolese taxa are revised to represent the current taxonomy, and are presented in perspective against the taxon’s Species Distribution Model to assess species distribution on the African continent. Additionally, an updated key to the various taxa is presented.
Abuse and Misuse of Selected Dietary Supplements Among Adolescents: a Look at Poison Center Data

Published: December 2017

OBJECTIVE The use of dietary supplements has increased and is associated with adverse effects. Indications for use include recreation, body image concerns, mood enhancement, or control of medical conditions. The risk of adverse effects may be enhanced if agents are used improperly. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of abuse and misuse of 4 dietary substances among adolescents reported nationally to poison centers. Secondary outcomes included an assessment of medical outcomes, clinical effects, location of treatments provided, and treatments administered.
METHODS This descriptive retrospective review assessed data concerning the use of garcinia (Garcinia cambogia), guarana (Paullinia cupana), salvia (Salvia divinorum), and St John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) among adolescents reported nationally to poison centers from 2003 to 2014. Adolescents with a singlesubstance exposure to one of the substances of interest coded as intentional abuse or misuse were included. Poison center calls for drug information or those with unrelated clinical effects were excluded. Data were collected from the National Poison Data System.
RESULTS There were 84 cases: 7 cases of Garcinia cambogia, 28 Paullinia cupana, 23 Salvia divinorum, and 26 Hypericum perforatum. Garcinia cambogia was used more frequently by females (100% versus 0%), and Paullinia cupana and Salvia divinorum were used more frequently by males (61% versus 36% and 91% versus 9%, respectively). Abuse, driven by Salvia divinorum, was more common overall than misuse. Abuse was also more common among males than females (p &lt;0.001). Use of these agents fluctuated over time. Overall, use trended down since 2010, except for Garcinia cambogia use. In 62 cases (73.8%), the medical outcome was minor or had no effect or was judged as nontoxic or minimally toxic. Clinical effects were most common with Paullinia cupana and Salvia divinorum. Treatment sites included emergency department (n = 33; 39.3%), non-healthcare facility (n = 24; 28.6%), admission to a health care facility (n = 8; 9.5%), and other/unknown (n = 19; 22.6%).
CONCLUSIONS Abuse and misuse of these dietary supplements was uncommon, and outcomes were mild. Further research should be performed to determine use and outcomes of abuse/misuse of other dietary supplements in this population.

Published: December 2017

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to describe whether tolerance develops in pediatric patients receiving chronic intermittent furosemide therapy, to characterize when it occurs and whether age-related variations exist. The effects of increasing total daily dose of furosemide and concurrent diuretics and vasopressors were assessed as secondary aims.METHODS Charts from patients receiving intravenous or oral furosemide for at least 3 consecutive days of therapy between June 1, 2013, and December 31, 2013, were reviewed retrospectively. Daily net fluid balance was used as the objective marker for development of tolerance. Net fluid balance (mL/kg/mg) was defined as the difference in a patient's daily intake and urine output (mL), normalized by weight (kg) and total daily dose of furosemide (mg).RESULTS Sixty-one patients, aged 2 days to 20 years (median 3 years), were included in this study. Median daily dose of furosemide was 1.96 mg/kg/day (range, 0–13.7 mg/kg/day). Average net fluid balance for all patients on the first day and last day of therapy was 6.83 and 26.66 mL/kg/mg, respectively (p = 0.011). Linear regression and Spearman's correlation found no significant relationship between age and difference in net fluid balance between the first and last day. Linear mixed-effects model for net fluid balance with day as covariate found that net fluid balance increases over time (p = 0.002).CONCLUSIONS Pediatric patients appear to develop tolerance to chronic intermittent furosemide therapy.
