title: Mechanical and thermal analysis of coating mortars with partial replacement of aggregate by expanded clay

description: Abstract In the construction industry context, the performance of constructive elements is a relevant topic for scientific research. Hence, the aim of this study was to analyse the mechanical and thermal behaviour of lining mortars, using different contents - 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% - of a fine fraction of expanded clay as a partial substitute for the conventional aggregate, in order to compare them with a reference mortar without expanded clay. With that purpose, important mechanical properties of the mortars were identified, both in the fresh state and in the hardened state. In addition, the thermal conductivity of the mortars was determined and laboratory tests were carried out on the samples with the aid of incidence and heat transfer simulators. The results show that the mortars incorporating expanded clay did not present negative impacts on their mechanical properties. On the other hand, the increase in the expanded clay content in the composition of the mixes reduced the thermal conductivity and increased the thermal insulation of the samples. Thus, the influence of light aggregate on the thermal behaviour of the mortars under study is evident, without compromising their mechanical behaviour.

title: BIM+Lean for integrating production and quality control at the construction site

description: Abstract Current production and quality control activities performed on-site are based either on manual procedures or on different automatic data collection technologies. A major problem in these controls is that they are often applied in isolation. Therefore, there are opportunities for improving the performance of construction projects by integrating quality and production control systems supported by digital systems and considering concepts and principles from Lean Philosophy. This article describes a conceptual framework that make it possible to integrate production and quality control in construction sites, considering the combination of BIM and the Last Planner System™ (LPS). This investigation was based on two empirical studies, carried out in companies that develop and build residential building projects. The main contribution of the study is the ability of the model to surpass the limitations of commercial software available to cope with the flexibility demanded by LPS. The results indicated that the proposed framework enables timely feedback to be provided to production managers, and BIM models to be quickly updated with progress monitoring and product quality data.

title: INCREASED RISK OF SPORTS INJURIES AMONG MEDICAL STUDENTS: CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the nature and rate of sports injuries in medical students, as well as the risk factors at these events. Methods: All student-athletes (218) from a Medical School, integrated in at least one of the six team sport modalities (soccer, rugby, indoor soccer, handball, basketball, and volleyball) in 2017, were included. Injuries affecting their performance, regardless of time loss, were included. Athlete-exposure (A-E) was defined as one student-athlete participating in one practice or game. Results: Injury rates were significantly higher in junior medical students (1st - 3rd year) (7.58 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 6.11-9.06) than in senior medical students (4th - 6th year) (4.49 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 3.26-5.73) (p &lt; 0.001). Multi-sports athletes had higher injury rates (10.69 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 8.22-13.17) than single-sport athletes (4.49 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 3.51-5.47) (p = 0.002). More than 60% of reported injuries occurred in the lower limbs and the mechanism that accounted for most injuries in games was player contact (51%); whereas in practice, it was non-contact (53%). Conclusion: Junior medical students present a higher injury rate than seniors. Medical students practicing more than one modality had a higher injury rate than those involved in just one sport modality. Level of Evidence IV, Cross-Sectional Study.

title: FIGHTING FOR THE COLLECTIVE: MEANINGS CONSTRUCTED BY ORGANIZED TEACHERS

description: ABSTRACT This study investigates the question of the senses and meanings that organized professoriate attributes to its political participation in social movements in Chile. Using qualitative methodology with a narrative approach, 12 in-depth interviews were performed with teachers who participate in different political organizations: professional associations and national, regional and/or school unions. The results show a high valuation of the teaching organization as a validated mechanism of political pressure and participation, associated with social struggle. Adherence to the professional association - College of Teachers - allows the formation of a collective subject that, by also participating in other organizational instances, modulates the social identity of critical teacher. Finally, there is evidence of the need to move forward in new investigations that can rescue the experience of organization of those marginalized voices in a school culture that often individualizes protest and organized action.

title: EPIDEMIOLOGY, CLASSIFICATION, AND TREATMENT OF BILATERAL FRACTURES OF THE DISTAL RADIUS

description: ABSTRACT Objective: To study epidemiology, fracture pattern, associated injuries, and treatment of individuals with bilateral distal radius fracture, in a tertiary hospital. Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study developed based on patients with bilateral distal radius fracture from January 2012 to November 2017. Demographic data, trauma mechanism, radiological patterns, degree of deviation, associated injuries, classification of fractures according to the Association of Osteosynthesis (AO), the Salter-Harris (SH) and Frykman scales, and type of treatment used in each case. Results: 13 cases were included in the trial, 10 adults and three children. In infants, the mean age was 9.6 years (7-11 years), and low-energy trauma was described in all these cases. In total, 66.6% of the children presented the SHII classification . In adult patients, the mean age observed was 43.5 years (27-56 years), with high-energy trauma reported in four (40%) cases. The AO 23C.3 and 23B.2 classifications were the most prevalent in adults. Conclusion: In adult individuals, there was a higher incidence of open fractures, wrist joint involvement, ulna fracture, and concomitant injuries, with high-energy trauma observed only in this group, corresponding to half of the cases. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.

title: THE TERRITORY OF MEMORY: A CITIZEN CARTOGRAPHY OF MEMORIES

description: ABSTRACT Action research gives shape to the project “The Voice of the Hours”, carried out by four schools located in the province of La Coruña, with the aim of drawing a kairos map. To do this, the schoolchildren analyzed the intensity of the passage of time. Once the action of memory was understood, they participated in the exploration of memory by requesting from people belonging to five generations stories from their own biography. At the procedural level, a questionnaire associated with a quick response code was generated, which, after being attached to a symbol, was used as an exploratory instrument, as it was distributed in the urban space. In response, 256 personal memories were obtained, which were analyzed using the qualitative panel technique, called “cohort” and aimed at learning the story of the action, in the voice of the protagonists. Finally, the cartographic results were represented in a participatory artistic installation.

title: Iohexol gastrointestinal transit times in cockatiels under sedation with intranasal midazolam by computed radiography

description: ABSTRACT: This study used contrast radiography to evaluate gastrointestinal transit times in cockatiels (Nymphicus hollandicus) and investigated the sedative effects of intranasal midazolam in this species and its usefulness in facilitating the manual restraint required for radiographic studies. Twelve healthy adult cockatiels received intranasal midazolam at dose of 2 mg/kg, and iohexol at 15 ml/kg by crop gavage. Radiographic images were obtained before contrast administration, 3 minutes after and then each 10 minutes for 90 minutes. Sedation quality of the bird was evaluated during the radiographic study and assessed according to an adapted visual sedation scale. Three minutes after iohexol administration, the cervical oesophagus and the crop were filled in all birds. At the same time, the contrast medium reached the thoracic oesophagus, proventriculus, isthmus and ventriculus in most birds. In all cockatiels, median (range) transit times were 3 (3-10) minutes for proventriculus and ventriculus, 10 (10-40) minutes for small intestine and 45 (30-70) minutes for large intestine. The overall gastrointestinal transit time was 50 (30-90) minutes.Crop remained filled with iohexol throughout the study, while oesophagus and isthmus presented a pattern of contrast progression different from the other gastrointestinal segments. According to the visual sedation scale, cockatiels presented a moderate to intense muscular relaxation, and intranasal midazolam seems to be an appropriate sedation protocol for radiographic study. All cockatiels remained healthy after the study and presented clear and watery stools at least 12 hours after, due to gastrointestinal emptying.

title: INQUISITION AND REGALISM: THE (RE)EVALUATION OF CANDIDACIES WITHIN THE HOLY OFFICE DURING POMBAL’S RULE

description: Abstract This paper analyzes the administrative procedure of the Portuguese Holy Office derived from the reforms promoted by Pombal, specially the mechanisms of social classification adopted by the institution after its elevation to the status of royal court. It discusses the action of decision-making bodies from the Portuguese Inquisition who, in the years 1769 and 1770, undertook a process of reanalyzing old licensing processes that had been suspended for incurring regimental impediments, reconsidering them in light of the new political guidelines in force at that time. This action, the text argues, was part of the reformist political efforts that aimed to curb the regulatory power of the Holy Office, renew the paradigms of social stratification enforced by the institution, and provide the central governing power with an instrument to co-opt political support from the intermediate strata of society, valuing mercantile groups and broadening their base of supporters and state financiers. This reveals a still unknown dimension of the regalist impetus of D. José I’s reign and shows how the Portuguese Inquisition served the reformist policies of his government.

title: Constructability of complex architectural shapes: a systematic literature review

description: Abstract The use of parametric computational models led to a revolution in building shapes. However, the formal freedom brought about by parametric models has also posed new challenges, especially concerning the construction process and the use of materials in architecture using complex shapes. Therefore, for the development of an efficient and effective architecture, it is essential to understand constructability or how manufacturing and assembly processes and materials influence the generation of shapes. Hence, this article aims to identify and analyse the state of the art regarding the manufacturing and assembly processes of complex architectural forms through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). After searching five databases, 142 papers were found, of which 61 were selected for analysis. These works offered a broad view of the application of materials and digital manufacturing techniques in the construction of complex shapes, as well as different constructability criteria used for shape analysis, mentioned in 17 papers. This study’s conclusion is that the development of complex architectural forms requires the integration between the shape design, the construction materials that will be used, and the manufacturing and assembly processes.
