Marine ecosystem can be considered a rather exploited source of natural substances with enormous bioactive potential. In Mexico macro-algae study remain forgotten for research and economic purposes besides the high amount of this resource along the west and east coast. For that reason the Bioferinery Group of the Autonomous University of Coahuila, have been studying the biorefinery concept in order to recover high value byproducts of Mexican brown macro-algae including polysaccharides and enzymes to be applied in food, pharmaceutical and energy industry. Brown macroalgae are an important source of fucoidan, alginate and laminarin which comprise a complex group of macromolecules with a wide range of important biological properties such as anticoagulant, antioxidant, antitumoral and antiviral and also as rich source of fermentable sugars for enzymes production. Additionally, specific enzymes able to degrade algae matrix (fucosidases, sulfatases, aliginases, etc) are important tools to establish structural characteristics and biological functions of these polysaccharides. The aims of the present work were the integral study of bioprocess for macroalgae biomass exploitation by the use of green technologies as hydrothermal extraction and solid state fermentation in order to produce polysaccharides and enzymes (fucoidan and fucoidan hydrolytic enzymes). This work comprises the use of the different bioprocess phases in order to produce high value products with lower time and wastes.

Neste trabalho é dada continuidade à investigação previamente realizada no âmbito de uma nova técnica de reabilitação de estruturas de alvenaria baseada na projeção de finas camadas de argamassa reforçada com fibras (FRCC). Para tal, foi desenvolvido um programa experimental composto pela realização de ensaios de push-out em provetes reforçados segundo esta técnica, com o intuito de avaliar a influência da utilização de diferentes tipos de conetores na capacidade resistente e no comportamento da interface entre o material de reforço e o material reforçado.

This work reports the implementation and verification of a new so lver in OpenFOAM® open source computational library, able to cope with integral viscoelastic models based on the integral upper-convected Maxwell model. The code is verified through the comparison of its predictions with analytical solutions and numerical results obtained with the differential upper-convected Maxwell model

The usual high cost of commercial codes, and some technical limitations, clearly limits the employment of numerical modelling tools in both industry and academia. Consequently, the number of companies that use numerical code is limited and there a lot of effort put on the development and maintenance of in-house academic based codes. Having in mind the potential of using numerical modelling tools as a design aid, of both products and processes, different research teams have been contributing to the development of open source codes/libraries. In this framework, any individual can take advantage of the available code capabilities and/or implement additional features based on his specific needs. These type of codes are usually developed by large communities, which provide improvements and new features in their specific fields of research, thus increasing significantly the code development process. Among others, OpenFOAM® multi-physics computational library, developed by a very large and dynamic community, nowadays comprises several features usually only available in their commercial counterparts; e.g. dynamic meshes, large diversity of complex physical models, parallelization, multiphase models, to name just a few. This computational library is developed in C++ and makes use of most of all language capabilities to facilitate the implementation of new functionalities. Concerning the field of computational rheology, OpenFOAM® solvers were recently developed to deal with the most relevant differential viscoelastic rheological models, and stabilization techniques are currently being verified. This work describes the implementation of a new solver in OpenFOAM® library, able to cope with integral viscoelastic models based on the deformation field method. The implemented solver is verified through the comparison of the predicted results with analytical solutions, results published in the literature and by using the Method of Manufactured Solutions.

[Excerpt] A large number of constitutive equations were developed for viscoelastic fluids, some empirical and other with strong physical foundations. The currently available macroscopic constitutive equations can be divided in two main types: differential and integral. Some of the constitutive equations, e.g. Maxwell are available both in differential and integral types. However, relevant in tegral models, like K - BKZ, just possesses the integral form. (...)

Enquadramento: O Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC) acarreta múltiplas alterações no quotidiano do doente e seus familiares mas a reabilitação é considerada uma oportunidade. A Rede Nacional de Cuidados Continuados Integrados (RNCCI) facilita a reabilitação e a educação para a saúde possibilita a mudança de atitude necessária para a reabilitação. Objetivos: Conhecer e divulgar as perceções de doentes com AVC e enfermeiros relativamente às práticas de Educação para a Saúde na RNCCI. Metodologia: Qualitativa, com entrevista semi-estruturada, a 8 doentes e a 17 enfermeiros. A técnica escolhida foi a análise de conteúdo das entrevistas. Partimos de categorias definidas a priori, e emergiram outras categorias. Resultados: Os doentes atribuíram aos enfermeiros a maior parte da responsabilidade pela reabilitação. Os enfermeiros relacionaram os aspetos psicológicos e a importância do envolvimento da família com a adesão do doente ao regime terapêutico. Conclusão: Os doentes demonstram que se encontram no modelo biomédico, por outro lado os enfermeiros apontam o modelo biopsicossocial como orientador das suas práticas de Educação para a Saúde na rede.

(Excerto) Com a expansão das novas tecnologias digitais da infor­mação e da comunicação e as biotecnologias, o mundo social e técnico está a transformar-se de uma forma acelerada nas últimas décadas. Uma alteração que tem dois efeitos impor­tantes: em primeiro lugar, uma mudança na relação entre o humano e a tecnologia; em segundo, uma crise da forma tra­dicional das ciências sociais pensarem a questão da técnica.

[Excerto] As biotecnologias, do mesmo modo que as tecnologias da informação e da comunicação, têm investido e mobilizado a cultura e o humano. E apesar de os objectos técnicos serem o produto da inventividade humana, a técnica tem-se afastado da ideia instrumental de simples construção humana para causa do próprio homem (Heidegger, 1988). A ideia de crise do humano tem-se então acentuado, à medida que passamos a falar de vida artificial, de fertilização in vitro, de "barrigas de aluguer", de clonagem, replicantes e cyborgs, de adeus ao corpo e à carne, de pós-orgânico e de trans-humano.
