O USO DE CAVACOS DE MADEIRA NA INDÚSTRIA CERÂMICA E A CONSEQUENTE GERAÇÃO DE CINZAS
Authors: Amaro Vieira Vanessa , De Paula Nádia Figueiredo , Souza Júlio César 
Published: April 2024

A sinterização ou “queima” é a etapa onde o calor transforma argila em cerâmica. Uma indústria cerâmica do município de Jaboticabal, SP utiliza cavacos de madeira para aquecimento dos fornos. A combustão dos cavacos produz energia e calor de maneira eficiente e sustentável, entretanto, resulta na produção de cinzas. O conhecimento das particularidades da biomassa queimada auxilia na definição de uma aplicação para as cinzas e no estabelecimento de estratégias para sua redução. O objetivo do trabalho foi caracterizar lotes de cavacos utilizados pela empresa e relacionar com a quantidade de cinzas produzidas. Foram avaliados três lotes, dos quais nove amostras foram coletadas. Analisou-se densidade, umidade, porcentagem de casca, granulometria e cinzas produzidas nos fornos. A densidade variou de 246 a 271 kg/m3. Lotes 2 e 3 apresentaram umidade de 7% e Lote 1 de 24%. A proporção de cascas variou de 10,8 a 19,7%. A produção de cinzas foi de 2%. Cavacos livres de cascas, produzem 0,6% de cinzas enquanto as cascas produzem 2,15%. Cerca de 50kg de cinzas são produzidos em cada forno por queima. A cinza apresenta granulometria predominantemente fina. Há uma variação considerável entre os lotes de cavacos, principalmente quanto à umidade e porcentagem de casca. Cavacos com mais casca tendem a produzir mais cinzas e cavacos mais úmidos resultam em maior consumo, pois haverá gasto de energia para evaporação de água. Os dados evidenciam que é possível reduzir as cinzas utilizando cavacos com menos cascas e reduzir o consumo de energia utilizando cavacos mais secos.

Published: April 2024

A conservação da qualidade da água dos rios é de extrema importância. A área agrícola no Brasil é extensa, e o uso de variados fertilizantes podem causar diversos problemas ambientais impactando diretamente a qualidade dos rios. Caso não ocorra o manejo correto do solo, pode ocorrer a lixiviação dos compostos orgânicos, causando assoreamento, eutrofização e mudança na biota aquática. Para minimizar os impactos em áreas de predomínio agrícola ou remediar rios que não tem suas protetoras matas ciliares, propõe-se o estudo de um cinturão de proteção no leito dos rios, seguindo a observação de áreas alagadas, utilizando como eco tecnologia o sistema de wetlands, ou alagados construídos. A macrófita escolhida para a pesquisa foi o Cyperus Papyrus, nome popular Papiro, por ser uma macrófita emergente e bem adaptável as situações adversas de climas e em toda região brasileira. Portanto, o objetivo deste trabalho foi a realização do tratamento das águas de um rio urbano da cidade de Jaboticabal, utilizando Wetlands construídos com a macrófita ´´Papiro``, e testar sua capacidade de remoção dos aportes de nitrogênio e fósforo. Os valores de nitrito e nitrato, na maior parte do experimento, estavam dentro do permitido pela legislação. Foram observadas remoções de ortofosfato, nitrogênio amoniacal, nitrito e nitrato nos wetlands utilizando o papiro, indicando que os usos desses sistemas podem ser uma alternativa viável para a melhoria da qualidade da água.

Authors: Puri Basant K. , Miari Anastasia , Theodoratou Maria 
Published: April 2024

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified the focus on mental health, particularly on the coping strategies of healthcare workers who have faced unparalleled stress due to their pivotal role in addressing health disparities and determinants of health. Constantly operating in high-risk environments and managing the surge of critically ill patients, these professionals’ psychological resilience has been sternly tested, necessitating robust assessment tools. Aim This study aims to refine the extensive 54-item Toulouse Coping Scale into a more pragmatic and less time-consuming instrument while preserving its statistical integrity, to support the mental well-being of healthcare workers. Setting The setting for this study was amongst healthcare workers in Greece, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a period marked by significant psychological demands on medical staff. Methods We conducted an unbiased exploratory factor analysis on the Toulouse Coping Scale’s 54 items, drawing from a sample of 144 healthcare workers, adhering to strict methodological criteria. Results Data completeness was achieved across the sample, which comprised 40 (28%) males and 104 (72%) females, predominantly aged between 31 and 50 years. The final instrument, encapsulating two domains with a total of nine questions, demonstrated strong internal consistency, with an eigenvalue of 3.438 for the first domain and 1.478 for the second, validated by a scree plot. Conclusion The streamlined TCS-9 scale facilitates a more rapid assessment of coping strategies while reducing redundancy. The two-domain structure ensures that the revised scale retains the original’s thoroughness in a more concise form. Contribution By enabling quicker and more efficient evaluations, the TCS-9 enhances the practicality of assessing coping mechanisms in healthcare settings, thereby contributing to the sustenance of health systems and the promotion of health equity.

Microaggressive Stress and Identity Trauma: The Work-Related Mental Health Risks of LGBTQ+ Music Teachers
Authors: Smith Tawnya D. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Music teachers are exposed to work-related stressors sufficient to negatively impact their mental health, and both the COVID-19 pandemic and culture wars have amplified the likelihood of teacher-targeted bullying and harassment. However, LGBTQ+ teachers have been historically more likely to experience workplace discrimination, and they may be even more at risk since the advent of the third wave of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in the United States. Given the absence of a body of LGBTQ+ music teacher mental health research, the purpose of this review of literature was to examine teacher mental health, music teacher mental health, LGBTQ+ teacher mental health, and LGBTQ+ music teacher studies to reveal the threats to mental health that LGBTQ+ music teachers may encounter as a result of their work. I draw upon microaggressive stress theory to consider the ways that harassment and discrimination can lead to mental distress. Recommendations to prevent such stressors include implementing microintervention education and expanding access to mentorship, support groups, and mental health care. Future research is needed to determine the extent that microaggressive stress negatively impacts LGBTQ+ teachers. Studies of microintervention curricula are also needed to determine if such strategies are beneficial to reduce microaggressive stress for those in educational contexts.

‘Het recht op een kind bestaat niet’ De rechten van het kind in het Nederlandse beleid ten aanzien van de internationale adoptie- en voortplantingsmarkt (Miek de Langen-lezing 2023)
Gezinsvorming via de internationale adoptie- en voortplantingsmarkt brengt verschillende risico’s voor de bescherming van kinderrechten met zich. Door gebruik te maken van deze buitenlandse markten omzeilen Nederlandse wensouders regelgeving die er mede op is gericht om de rechten van het kind te beschermen. Met name de inbedding, identiteit en waardigheid van kinderen kunnen onder druk komen te staan in deze commerciële setting. De centrale vraag van deze beschouwing is of de rechten en waardigheid van kinderen in het Nederlandse beleid ten aanzien van de internationale adoptie- en voortplantingsmarkt wel voldoende worden beschermd. Is er sprake van voortschrijdend inzicht? Welke lessen kunnen worden geleerd van interlandelijke adoptie voor internationaal draagmoederschap en gebruik van buitenlandse ei- en zaadcellen?
The One and Only Juliet: The Humanity of Young Noblewomen in Shakespeare’s Play
Authors: Zhang Xiaojun , Xing Yexuan 
Published: April 2024

Feminist critics have made many innovative elaborations of the plays of Shakespeare, the most excellent writer of the Renaissance, expanding the interpretations of the various performances of his female characters. Romeo and Juliet is considered one of the most famous works of his writing career, which tells a romantic and tragic story from two young Italians in feudal times. However, Romeo and Juliet emphasizes more on the influence of inner experience on human choices as a tragedy. Despite the heroine lives in the Middle Ages, her willingness for love and personality liberation breaks the stereotype of women as weak and submissive. Therefore, this paper will explore Shakespeare’s rewriting of the image of Juliet as a medieval noble lady and analyze her unique humanism and desire for spiritual freedom.

Published: April 2024

With the rapid development of space technology, the complexity of spacecraft is increasing and the cost of spacecraft is growing. Therefore, it is increasingly important to use space crawling robot to provide state sensing and maintenance services of large spacecraft extravehicular equipment. In order to ensure the reliable attachment of the robot to the target star in the gravity-free space environment, this paper proposes an attached foot scheme which can be applied to the space crawling robot. The proposed attached foot integrates the two technical approaches of claw grabbing and dry adhesion, which can effectively solve the repeatable attachment problem of the star surface with different characteristics. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed technical approaches are verified by simulation.

Authors: Zhang Chenhao , Xiao Zhiren , Fu Chenhao 
Published: April 2024

This article introduces a plant collection system applied in Tibet to solve the challenges of traditional manual collection in the plateau environment. The system uses a remotely controlled Raspberry Pi trolley[1] to collect plants, which improves the collection efficiency and the safety of collectors. Hardware modules include basic functional systems and artificial intelligence subsystems for control, navigation and plant recognition. The AI[2] subsystem uses the YOLOv5s[3] model for plant recognition and cooperates with sensors to implement environmental monitoring. The software interface provides slider and button controls, allowing the operator to precisely control the robot's movement and camera angles. Experimental results show that the system performs well in heavy object grabbing, muddy driving, sloping driving, and plant grabbing, etc., and provides an effective tool for field plant research and protection work.
