This work is part of several research related to the plan of design and construction of a sustainable house. The previous researches focused on sustainable materials and it have shown that ceramic material are more interesting to improve the thermal comfort and the reduction of fees and prices of the house, making possible to construct popular home, mainly clay bricks, that have high thermal inertia and low costs, besides the fact that it is easy to find the raw materials in nature and process them. However, a major issue in using clay bricks is that it uses too many energy to be processed during the sintering (burning), a crucial part of the process that assures mechanical resistance. Alternative materials are being proposed by the researchers, as the clay bricks without the sintering mixed with Portland cement, assuring the proper resistance to the brick. Raw materials of cement, however, also need to be thermally processed in rotary kilns, in a process called clinckerization. This research was proposed for comparing the energy used by the two types of bricks and other objectives, in order to determinate which one uses less thermal energy. The intention was to compare the energy used during the sintering of regular clay bricks and the unfired bricks with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% of Portland cement. The paper also investigated and compared the use of electrical and thermal energy of all the bricks to identify how important were the thermal stages (sintering or clinkerization) relatively to the total energy spent. At last, a resumed analysis was performed to identify the possible health damages of the many life cycles of the bricks. The conclusion was that unfired bricks with less than 40% of cement use less thermal energy to be processed. In addition, their carbon dioxides emissions were less dangerous to ...

O núcleo leito da estria terminal (NLET) é uma estrutura límbica localizada no prosencéfalo rostral, no qual constitui uma importante região no circuito neural das respostas comportamentais e fisiológicas a estímulos aversivos. Estudos anteriores demonstraram o envolvimento do NLET nas respostas cardiovasculares desencadeados por estímulos aversivos. No entanto, os mecanismos neuroquímicos locais envolvidos nesse controle pelo NLET ainda são pouco compreendidos. O glutamato é um importante neurotransmissor excitatório no SNC, e evidências têm apontado que a neurotransmissão glutamatérgica é um importante mecanismo neuroquímico envolvido no controle das respostas fisiológicas durante o estresse em várias estruturas límbicas. Entretanto, um possível envolvimento da neurotransmissão glutamatérgica do NLET nas respostas cardiovasculares ao estresse nunca foi investigado. Assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi estudar o envolvimento da neurotransmissão glutamatérgica no NLET nas respostas autônomas observadas durante o estresse de restrição agudo em ratos. Nós observamos que a microinjeção bilateral no NLET de LY235959 (antagonista seletivo do receptor glutamatérgico NMDA) reduziu a resposta taquicárdica desencadeada pelo estresse de restrição, porém não afetou as respostas pressora e de redução da temperatura cutânea da cauda. O tratamento bilateral do NLET com NBQX (antagonista seletivo de receptores glutamatérgicos não-NMDA) reduziu a resposta taquicárdica e a de redução da temperatura cutânea desencadeadas pelo estresse de restrição, porém sem interferir com a resposta pressora. Dessa forma, nossos dados sugerem que a neurotransmissão glutamatérgica do NLET tem uma influência facilitatória nas respostas taquicárdica e de vasoconstrição cutânea induzidas pelo estresse.

With the Big Data development and the growth of cloud computing and Internet of Things, data centers have been multiplying in Brazil and the rest of the world. Designing and running this sites in an efficient way has become a necessary challenge and to do so, it's essential a better understanding of its infrastructure. Thus, this paper presents a bibliography study using technical concepts in order to understand the specific needs related to this environment and the best forms address them. It discusses the data center infrastructure main systems, methods to improve their energy efficiency and their future trends
