In this work, the reference drugs, generic and similar to the active ingredients acetylsalicylic acid, paracetamol, captopril, hydrochlorothiazide and mebendazole were purchased from local pharmacies and studied by thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Thermal decomposition was assessed to obtain from the Ozawa method the activation energy in inert atmosphere (nitrogen), using three different heating ratios (5, 10 and 20 o C min-1). The pharmaceutical formulation of the AAS reference was the one who presented different from the others (generic and similar) Thermogravimetric profile indicating likely interaction between the active ingredient and excipients. Was observed at the heating rate of the inverse temperature that no linearity of the data, ie, there was no correlation between the percentage of mass loss and the activation energy involved in the thermal decomposition of the pharmaceutical formulation of the AAS reference log graph. The analysis by differential scanning calorimetry was performed in nitrogen atmosphere with a heating rate of 10 ° C min-1. In the analysis of these same drugs, the data curves found on the melting point were, except for hydrochlorothiazide, are consistent with the literature. Hydrochlorothiazide presented a melting point well below that found in the literature, which may be justified due to the interaction of the active ingredient with the excipient lactose. In the study of purity, using the Van't Hoff equation, the reference drugs hydrochlorothiazide and mebendazole reference generic and showed similar impurity content below the limit established that this equation must be greater than 2.5 mol%

There is great difficulty in forming a composite refractory metal niobium with copper. This is due to the fact that Nb-Cu system is almost mutually immiscible and may be neglected solubility between them. These properties hinder or prevent obtaining homogeneous and high-density structures, conventionally prepared. This study aims to analyze the use of high-energy milling process (MAE) to implement these natural difficulties, with regard to the densification of the sintered bodies. The MAE and the press were used in the preparation of powders, to obtain a fine and homogeneous distribution of the grain size. Four loads Nb and Cu powders containing 15% by weight of Cu were then milled for MAE in a planetary type ball mill under various milling times and speeds. The results obtained by MAE were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), according to the parameters of time and grinding speed. The samples were compacted under pressure of 200 MPa, were then sintered in liquid phase in a vacuum furnace at temperatures of 1100 ° C / 60 min and 1200 ° C / 60 min. Then it was used to characterize diffraction of X-rays to identify the phases. The microstructures of the sintered samples were observed and evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Vickers Microhardness tests were performed, obtaining higher values for the sintered bodies in the largest of the post milling times and the larger grinding speeds. It was found that the liquid phase sintering of the samples that were processed by MAE produced at the end of a homogeneous and densified structure in 77,4% relative to the value of the theoretical density of the composite

The stabilization of energy supply in Brazil has been a challenge for the operation of the National Interconnected System in face of hydrological and climatic variations. Thermoelectric plants have been used as an emergency source for periods of water scarcity. The utilization of fossil fuels, however, has elevated the cost of electricity. On the other hand, offshore wind energy has gained importance in the international context and is competitive enough to become a possibility for future generation in Brazil. In this scenario, the main goal of this thesis was to investigate the magnitude and distribution of offshore wind resources, and also verify the possibilities of complementing hydropower. A data series of precipitation from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) Blended Sea Winds from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC/NOAA) were used. According to statistical criteria, three types of complementarity were found in the Brazilian territory: hydro × hydro, wind × wind and hydro × wind. It was noted a significant complementarity between wind and hydro resources (r = -0.65), mainly for the hydrographical basins of the southeast and central regions with Northeastern Brazil winds. To refine the extrapolation of winds over the ocean, a method based on the Monin-Obukhov theory was used to model the stability of the atmospheric boundary layer. Objectively Analyzed Air-Sea Flux (OAFLUX) datasets for heat flux, temperature and humidity, and also sea level pressure data from NCEP/NCAR were used. The ETOPO1 from the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC/NOAA) provided bathymetric data. It was found that shallow waters, between 0-20 meters, have a resource estimated at 559 GW. The contribution of wind resources to hydroelectric reservoir operation was investigated with a simplified hybrid wind-hydraulic model, and reservoir level, inflow, outflow and turbine production data. It was found that the hybrid system avoids drought periods, continuously saving water from reservoirs through wind production. Therefore, from the results obtained, it is possible to state that the good winds from the Brazilian coast can, besides diversifying the electric matrix, stabilize the hydrological fluctuations avoiding rationing and blackouts, reducing the use of thermal power plants, increasing the production cost and emission of greenhouse gases. Public policies targeted to offshore wind energy will be necessary for its full development.

A significant observational effort has been directed to investigate the nature of the so-called dark energy. In this dissertation we derive constraints on dark energy models using three different observable: measurements of the Hubble rate H(z) (compiled by Meng et al. in 2015.); distance modulus of 580 Supernovae Type Ia (Union catalog Compilation 2.1, 2011); and the observations of baryon acoustic oscilations (BAO) and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) by using the so-called CMB/BAO of six peaks of BAO (a peak determined through the Survey 6dFGS data, two through the SDSS and three through WiggleZ). The statistical analysis used was the method of the χ2 minimum (marginalized or minimized over h whenever possible) to link the cosmological parameter: m, ω and δω0. These tests were applied in two parameterization of the parameter ω of the equation of state of dark energy, p = ωρ (here, p is the pressure and ρ is the component of energy density). In one, ω is considered constant and less than -1/3, known as XCDM model; in the other the parameter of state equantion varies with the redshift, where we the call model GS. This last model is based on arguments that arise from the theory of cosmological inflation. For comparison it was also made the analysis of model CDM. Comparison of cosmological models with different observations lead to different optimal settings. Thus, to classify the observational viability of different theoretical models we use two criteria information, the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and the Akaike information criteria (AIC). The Fisher matrix tool was incorporated into our testing to provide us with the uncertainty of the parameters of each theoretical model. We found that the complementarity of tests is necessary inorder we do not have degenerate parametric spaces. Making the minimization process we found (68%), for the Model XCDM the best fit parameters are m = 0.28 ± 0, 012 and ωX = −1.01 ± 0, 052. While for Model GS the best settings are m = 0.28 ± 0, 011 and δω0 = 0.00 ± 0, 059. Performing a marginalization we found (68%), for the Model XCDM the best fit parameters are m = 0.28 ± 0, 012 and ωX = −1.01 ± 0, 052. While for Model GS the best settings are M = 0.28 ± 0, 011 and δω0 = 0.00 ± 0, 059.

Lo scopo di questo studio è la comprensione della dinamica dello strato limite urbano per città dell’Emilia Romagna tramite simulazioni numeriche. In particolare, l’attenzione è posta sull’ effetto isola di calore, ovvero sulla differenza di temperatura dell’aria in prossimità del suolo fra zone rurali e urbane dovuta all’urbanizzazione. Le simulazioni sono state effettuate con il modello alla mesoscala "Weather Research and Forecasting" (WRF), accoppiato con le parametrizzazioni urbane "Building Effect Parametrization" (BEP) e "Building Energy Model" (BEM), che agiscono a vari livelli verticali urbani. Il periodo di studio riguarda sei giorni caldi e senza copertura nuvolosa durante un periodo di heat wave dell’anno 2015. La copertura urbana è stata definita con il "World Urban Databes and Access Portal Tools" (WUDAPT), un metodo che permette di classificare le aree urbane in dieci "urban climate zones" (UCZ), attraverso l’uso combinato di immagini satellitari e "training areas" manualmente definite con il software Google Earth. Sono state svolte diverse simulazioni a domini innestati, con risoluzione per il dominio più piccolo di 500 m, centrato sulla città di Bologna. Le differenze fra le simulazioni riguardano la presenza o l’assenza delle strutture urbane, il metodo di innesto e tipo di vegetazione rurale. Inoltre, è stato valutato l’effetto dovuto alla presenza di pannelli fotovoltaici sopra i tetti di ogni edificio e le variazioni che i pannelli esercitano sullo strato limite urbano. Per verificare la bontà del modello, i dati provenienti dalle simulazioni sono stati confrontati con misure provenienti da 41 stazioni all’interno dell’area di studio. Le variabili confrontate sono: temperatura, umidità relativa, velocità e direzione del vento. Le simulazioni sono in accordo con i dati osservativi e riescono a riprodurre l’effetto isola di calore: la differenza di temperatura fra città e zone rurali circostanti è nulla durante il giorno; al contrario, durante la notte l’isola di calore è presente, e in media raggiunge il massimo valore di 4°C alle 1:00. La presenza dei pannelli fotovoltaici abbassa la temperatura a 2 metri dell’aria al massimo di 0.8°C durante la notte, e l’altezza dello strato limite urbano dell’ordine 200mrispetto al caso senza pannelli. I risultati mostrano come l’uso di pannelli fotovoltaici all’interno del contesto urbano ha molteplici benefici: infatti, i pannelli fotovoltaici riescono a ridurre la temperatura durante un periodo di heat wave, e allo stesso tempo possono parzialmente sopperire all’alto consumo energetico, con una conseguente riduzione del consumo di combustibili fossili.

Questo elaborato presenta il progetto di una interfaccia per l'aggiunta di sensori inerziali ad un nodo di una WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) �finalizzato al monitoraggio delle frane. Analizzando i vantaggi che avrebbe portato l'utilizzo di ulteriori sensori, si �e cercato di fornire un valido approccio di progettazione; in particolare l'idea �e quella di integrarli con un giroscopio ed un accelerometro aventi applicazioni in altri settori. Con questo particolare utilizzo, essi possono portare ad un miglior monitoraggio riuscendo a rilevare i movimenti in modo dettagliato ed a riconoscere i falsi allarmi. Nell'approccio che si intende suggerire verranno sfruttate schede per la prototipazione rapida, user-friendly e con costi decisamente accessibili, adatte alla sperimentazione elettronica e per lo sviluppo di nuovi dispositivi. Attraverso l'utilizzo di ambienti di sviluppo appositamente creati, si sono simulate le comunicazioni tra nodo e scheda di sensori, mettendo in evidenza i vantaggi ottenuti. Buona parte del progetto ha riguardato la programmazione in linguaggio C/C++, con una particolare attenzione al risparmio energetico.

In questo elaborato viene analizzata l’importanza di isolare termicamente in modo corretto le nostre abitazioni, per poterne trarre un vantaggio sia salutare che economico. E’ stata presa in esame la palazzina di Via Maria Zanotti situata nel comune di Imola (Bo). Si sono dapprima valutate le prestazioni energetiche dell’edificio, andando a calcolare la trasmittanza delle pareti e dei solai dell'edificio, che sono risultate inferiori rispetto a quelle prescritte oggi giorno nel Bollettino Ufficiale della Regione Emilia Romagna (BURERT) n.184 parte seconda. Affinché i valori della trasmittanza risultassero coerenti con quanto imposto dalla normativa si è avanzata l'ipotesi di andare ad inserire il sistema a cappotto. Si sono quindi analizzati diversi materiali isolanti fino a giungere alla scelta di quello più idoneo per la seguente struttura. Una volta scelto il materiale isolante è stata calcolata la trasmittanza delle pareti complessive dell'isolamento a cappotto, le quali sono risultate verificate nei confronti della normativa vigente. Si sono poi studiate le fasi necessarie per il montaggio del sistema a cappotto ed infine si è posta particolare attenzione ai dettagli costruttivi, evidenziando tutti i punti critici dell'edificio e le soluzioni di dettaglio necessarie per eliminare i ponti termici.

Il lavoro di questa tesi è focalizzato sulla valutazione della sensibilità delle microonde rispetto a differenti idrometeore per le frequenze a 89 GHz e 150 GHz e nella banda di assorbimento del vapor d'acqua a 183.31 GHz. Il metodo di indagine consiste nell'utilizzo del modello di trasferimento radiativo RTTOV (Eyre, 1991) per simulare radianze dei canali dei sensori satellitari nelle microonde Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-B (AMSU-B) e Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS). Le simulazioni basate sul modello RTTOV si sono focalizzate su tre dataset indipendenti, forniti da ECMWF. Il primo passo tiene conto di una selezione di categorie dei profili atmosferici basato su una distinzione della fase delle idrometeore, LWP, IWP e WVP, con sottoclassi terra e oceano. La distinzione in diverse categorie permette di valutare la sensibilità di ciascuna frequenza utilizzata nelle simulazioni al variare del contenuto di acqua e ghiaccio. Un secondo approccio è usato per valutare la risposta di ciascuna frequenza nei casi di nevicate sulla terraferma. Questa indagine ha permesso lo sviluppo di un nuovo algoritmo prototipale per la stima dell'intensità di precipitazione nevosa basato su una serie di test a soglia e una equazione di combinazione lineare multipla che sfrutta una combinazione dei canali più sensibili alla snowfall: 150, 186 e 190 GHz. Una prima verifica su casi di studio pre-selezionati di snowstorm sembra fornire risultati promettenti. Infine è stato realizzato uno studio di sensibilità dell’algoritmo 183-WSL (Laviola and Levizzani, 2011) utilizzando le simulazioni di RTTOV con precipitazione/non precipitazione come predittori discreti e con le intensità di precipitazione come predittori continui. Le simulazioni RTTOV rivelano una sovrastima delle radianze in presenza di profili di pioggia e ciò potrebbe essere dovuto alle approssimazioni e parametrizzazioni adottate nel modello RTTOV-SCATT usato per la risoluzione dello scattering in presenza di precipitazione.

This work presents discussions on the teaching of Chemical Bonds in high school and some implications of this approach in learning chemistry by students. In general, understanding how the chemicals combine to form substances and compounds, it is a key point for understanding the properties of substances and their structure. In this sense, the chemical bonds represent an extremely important issue, and their knowledge is essential for a better understanding of the changes occurring in our world. Despite these findings, it is observed that the way in which this concept is discussed in chemistry class has contributed, paradoxically, to the emergence of several alternative designs, making the understanding of the subject by students. It is believed that one of the explanations for these observations is the exclusive use of the "octet rule" as an explanatory model for the Chemical Bonds. The use of such a model over time eventually replace chemical principles that gave rise to it, transforming knowledge into a series of uninteresting rituals and even confusing for students. Based on these findings, it is deemed necessary a reformulation in the way to approach this content in the classroom, taking into account especially the fact that the explanations of the formation of substances should be based on the energy concept, which is fundamental to understanding how atoms combine. Thus, the main question of the survey and described here of the following question: Can the development of an explanatory model for the Chemical Bonds in high school based on the concept of energy and without the need to use the "octet rule"? Based on the concepts and methodologies of modeling activity, we sought the development of a teaching model was made through Teaching Units designed to give subsidies to high school teachers to address the chemical bonds through the concept of energy. Through this work it is intended to make the process of teaching and learning of Chemical Bonds content becomes more meaningful to students, developing models that contribute to the learning of this and hence other basic fundamentals of chemistry.

As plantas são organismos sésseis, incapazes de se movimentar de modo a procurar melhores condições ambientais ou nutricionais. Desenvolveram, assim mecanismos que lhes permitem adaptar-se e sobreviver em condição de stress. O stress parece ser parcialmente descodificado num sinal de défice de energia que desencadeia uma resposta, que envolve a indução da expressão de genes relacionados com processos catabólicos e a repressão de genes envolvidos em processos anabólicos. As proteínas quinases e fosfatases desempenham um papel fundamental na regulação das vias de sinalização de stress e, em particular as quinases da superfamília das SnRK encontram-se envolvidas em vários processos da resposta a stress, principalmente abióticos. Enquanto as SnRK2 e SnRK3 estão sobretudo envolvidas na resposta a ABA e a stress hídrico e salino, as SnRK1 têm sido descritas como reguladores chave da resposta a défice energético. No entanto, um número crescente de estudos tem evidenciado a interligação entre estas duas vias de sinalização. Apesar da importância de SnRK1 na regulação da resposta ao stress e na regulação do crescimento e desenvolvimento em plantas, os mecanismos moleculares envolvidos são ainda pouco conhecidos. Com o objetivo de identificar proteínas que interagem com SnRK1 e que poderão estar envolvidas na sua via de sinalização, foi efetuado um rastreio, pelo método Y2H, utilizando uma biblioteca comercial normalizada construída a partir de mRNA extraído de onze tecidos de Arabidopsis. Foram identificadas 32 proteínas que potencialmente interagem com SnRK1.1, entre as quais MARD1 e NDF4. O estudo destas interações permitiu verificar que MARD1 medeia a interação entre SnRK1.1 e RAPTOR1B, sugerindo que, de forma semelhante à que ocorre em mamíferos, esta interação pode interligar a resposta ao défice energético envolvendo os complexos SnRK1 e TOR. Curiosamente, verificou-se que MARD1 medeia igualmente a interação entre SnRK1.1 e várias das MAPKs de Arabidopsis, o que poderá indicar que estas duas vias de sinalização estão igualmente interligadas. Foi também verificado que, no sistema de Y2H, SnRK1.1 interage, em alguns casos de forma depende de NDF4, com as proteínas DELLA, componentes essências da via de sinalização de giberelinas, o que pode sugerir uma interligação entre estas duas vias de sinalização e, desta forma, explicar parcialmente o papel de SnRK1 no crescimento e desenvolvimento das plantas. Um novo mecanismo de interligação entre as vias de sinalização de ABA e energia é sugerida pelos resultados obtidos em ensaios de Y2H mostrando que SnRK1.1 interage com SnRK2.3 e, pela observação de que em plantas que não expressam SnRK1.1/2, a expressão de genes de resposta a ABA é fortemente comprometida, sugerindo que SnRK1 poderá ativar as SnRK2 e, deste modo, ativar a resposta a ABA. No seu conjunto, estes dados evidenciam o papel de SnRK1 como regulador central da resposta ao défice energético em plantas e sugerem alguns dos mecanismos moleculares que poderão estar envidos, nomeadamente através da interação com várias outras vias de sinalização como o complexo TOR (interagindo com RAPTOR1B), as MAPKs, a via de sinalização de ABA (através da interação com SnRK2) e a via de sinalização de giberelinas (através da interação com proteínas DELLA).
