O presente trabalho ocupa-se do estudo do Complexo Xisto-Grauváquico ante-ordovícico (Grupo das Beiras) na região do Caramulo-Buçaco (centro de Portugal). Em termos geológicos, a área estudada pertence à Zona Centro Ibérica e encontra-se limitada a N pelo granito do Caramulo, a S pela bacia meso-cenozóica de Arganil, a W pelo sinclinal paleozóico do Buçaco e pela bacia meso-cenozóica ocidental portuguesa e a E pelo sinclinal paleozóico de Arganil e pelo plutonito granítico de Tábua-Santa Comba Dão; no seio da área estudada encontra-se a bacia meso-cenozóica de Mortágua. Com base nas características litológicas e estruturais distinguem-se no Complexo Xisto Grauváquico 4 grandes conjuntos litológicos concordantes entre si, designados de Unidades I, II, III e IV, que se desenvolvem da base para o topo de N para S. A Unidade I situa-se a N da região. O seu limite inferior é desconhecido, e o superior posiciona-se no último conjunto arenoso com potência decamétrica. É constituída por xistos cinzentos e negros com intercalações de arenitos de espessura não superior a 100 metros e de extensão lateral quilométrica. Apresenta uma espessura mínima de 1000 m. A Unidade II apresenta consideravelmente menor proporção de material arenoso intercalado entre os pelitos comparativamente à unidade inferior. É caracterizada por apresentar um predomínio de material silto-argiloso e escassos níveis arenosos com potência não superior à dezena de metros e escassa continuidade lateral. Cartograficamente esta unidade constitui uma franja alargada de orientação próxima a E-W. Apresenta uma espessura aproximada de 1500 m. A Unidade III é caracterizada pela presença de conjuntos arenosos com extensão lateral quilométrica e espessura de várias dezenas de metros, separados por material silto-argiloso. Os limites inferior e superior estão situados respectivamente abaixo e acima dos principais conjuntos arenosos. Esta unidade apresenta uma espessura máxima estimada na ordem dos 2000 m. A Unidade IV, que é a unidade superior, apresenta um predomínio pelítico, com escassas intercalações de conjuntos arenosos. O seu limite inferior encontra-se no topo do último conjunto arenoso da Unidade III. Apresenta uma espessura mínima de 500 m. As características sedimentológicas das 4 unidades indicam uma sedimentação num ambiente de plataforma externa siliciclástica aberta, com a construção de barras e por vezes sujeita à acção de tempestades, com sucessivos períodos de superficialização e profundização numa bacia de sedimentação bastante subsidente. Em termos estruturais, para além duma deformação pré-ordovícica, que é comprovada pelo forte mergulho e dispersão da orientação dos eixos da 1ª fase varisca e da lineação de intersecção L1, a área estudada foi principalmente afectada pela Orogenia Varisca. A 1ª fase de deformação varisca (F1) gerou dobras com superfícies axiais e xistosidade associada (S1) de direcção WNW-ESE, e forte pendor para NNE. Estas dobras D1 apresentam comprimentos de onda que nunca chegam a ser quilométricos, desenvolvendo-se um grande flanco inverso denunciando a presença de uma antiforma para NNE e uma sinforma para SSW. A 2ª fase de deformação varisca (F2) actuou na parte nordeste da área estudada e é caracterizada por ter gerado dobras de comprimento de onda quilométrico, com planos axiais e xistosidade associada S2 de direcção NW-SE, subverticais ou a pender fortemente para NE. Embora com alguma dispersão, as lineações de intersecção L2 e os eixos das dobras D2 apresentam maioritariamente forte pendor para E. A direcção e tipos de estruturas da F2 sugerem uma correlação com a terceira fase definida em vários pontos da Zona Centro Ibérica e estreitamente relacionada com as intrusões graníticas. Do ponto de vista petrológico, distinguem-se várias rochas sedimentares (pelitos e arenitos) todas elas sujeitas a metamorfismo que não ultrapassa a fácies dos xistos verdes. Dentro das rochas sedimentares mais grosseiras, há a destacar a presença de arenitos vulcânicos cuja composição denuncia, não muito afastados da bacia sedimentar, a presença de aparelhos vulcânicos que estariam em actividade durante a sedimentação. Foram analisadas isotopicamente 27 amostras de metapelitos colhidas em 5 locais diferentes de forma a abranger quase toda a área estudada. Os dados isotópicos de quatro destes locais de amostragem forneceram isócronas Rb-Sr, em rocha total, com valores da ordem dos 400-440 Ma. O granito do Caramulo, datado pela isócrona Rb-Sr em amostras de rocha total, forneceu uma idade de 326±12Ma. As idades modelo Sm-Nd (manto empobrecido) de 5 amostras de metapelitos estão compreendidas entre 1.35 e 1.25 Ga. Este período de tempo pode ser considerado como correspondendo à época de diferenciação mantélica da crusta que deu lugar à maioria das áreas fonte dos metapelitos.

Neste trabalho os autores, embora reconhecendo não se se tratar de novas estações pré-históricas, não podem deixar de atribuir ao material recolhido uma importância bastante significativa, não só do ponto de vista tipológico, como da variedade de tipos de rocha, empregues na sua confecção. No aspecto tipológico, é de realçar as afinidades mirenses e asturienses de algumas peças recolhidas (picos, machados e pesos de rede), que apesar das suas reduzidas dimensões em relação aqueles encontrados no Baixo Alentejo e no Minho, não deixam de ser os representantes do «Languedocense» costeiro no centro do país mais precisamente na Foz do Tejo, ponto de encontro das indústrias paleolíticas e respectivas fácies do Norte e do Sul. O material agora estudado, embora não tenha sido recolhido em estações bem definidas, não perde de forma alguma o seu valor arqueológico, pois é originário (em especial aquele com afinidades «languedocences») das zonas marginais do Tejo, dado que a matéria prima utilizada está presente nos locais onde foi recolhida. Devemos ainda realçar as dimensões do material de calcário de aspecto acheulense e languedocense, sendo difícil atribuir-lhe uma datação correcta dada a fragilidade e fraca consistência desta rocha, e tendo ainda em conta o meio em que foi recolhido. No entanto se atender-mos à tipologia das peças e aos vários tipos de rochas utilizadas, podemos constatar que: I - Quartzito - Material acheulense e «languedocense». II - Basalto - Acheulense e «Ianguedocense». IlI - Calcário - «Ianguedocense» e peças de tradição acheulense. IV - Silex - Mustierense e Paleolítico superior.

The natural gas is an alternative source of energy which is found underground in porous and permeable rocks and being associated or not to the oil. Its basic composition includes methane, other hydrocarbon and compounds such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, sulphidric gas, mercaptans, water and solid particles. In this work, the dolomite mineral, a double carbonate of calcium and magnesium whose the chemical formula is CaMg(CO3)2, was evaluated as adsorbent material. The material was characterized by granulometric analysis, X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermal analysis, specific surface area, porosity, scanning electronic microscopy and infrared spectroscopy. Then the material was functionalized with diethanolamine (dolomite+diethanolamine) and diisopropylamine (dolomite+diisopropylamine). The results indicated that the adsorbents presented appropriate physiochemical characteristics for H2S adsorption. The adsorption tests were accomplished in a system coupled to a gas chromatograph and the H2S monitoring in the output of the system was accomplished by a pulsed flame photometric detector (PFPD). The adsorbents presented a significant adsorption capacity. Among the analyzed adsorbents, the dolomite+diethanolamine presented the best capacity of adsorption. The breakthrough curves obtained proved the efficiency of this process

In this work we developed a computer simulation program for physics porous structures based on programming language C + + using a Geforce 9600 GT with the PhysX chip, originally developed for video games. With this tool, the ability of physical interaction between simulated objects is enlarged, allowing to simulate a porous structure, for example, reservoir rocks and structures with high density. The initial procedure for developing the simulation is the construction of porous cubic structure consisting of spheres with a single size and with varying sizes. In addition, structures can also be simulated with various volume fractions. The results presented are divided into two parts: first, the ball shall be deemed as solid grains, ie the matrix phase represents the porosity, the second, the spheres are considered as pores. In this case the matrix phase represents the solid phase. The simulations in both cases are the same, but the simulated structures are intrinsically different. To validate the results presented by the program, simulations were performed by varying the amount of grain, the grain size distribution and void fraction in the structure. All results showed statistically reliable and consistent with those presented in the literature. The mean values and distributions of stereological parameters measured, such as intercept linear section of perimeter area, sectional area and mean free path are in agreement with the results obtained in the literature for the structures simulated. The results may help the understanding of real structures.

Metal-ceramic interfaces are present in tricone drill bits with hard ceramic inserts for oil well drilling operations. The combination of actions of cutting, crushing and breaking up of rocks results in the degradation of tricone drill bits by wear, total or partial rupture of the drill bit body or the ceramic inserts, thermal shock and corrosion. Also the improper pressfitting of the ceramic inserts on the bit body may cause its total detachment, and promote serious damages to the drill bit. The improvement on the production process of metal-ceramic interfaces can eliminate or minimize some of above-mentioned failures presented in tricone drill bits, optimizing their lifetime and so reducing drilling metric cost. Brazing is a widely established technique to join metal-ceramic materials, and may be an excellent alternative to the common mechanical press fitting process of hard ceramic inserts on the steel bit body for tricone drill bit. Wetting phenomena plays an essential role in the production of metal/ceramic interfaces when a liquid phase is present in the process. In this work, 72Silver-28Copper eutectic based brazing alloys were melted onto zirconia, silicon nitride and tungsten carbide/Co substrates under high vacuum. Contact angle evolution was measured and graphically plotted, and the interfaces produced were analysed by SEM-EDX. The AgCu eutectic alloy did not wet any ceramic substrates, showing high contact angles, and so without chemical interaction between the materials. Better results were found for the systemns containing 3%wt of titanium in the AgCu alloy. The presence os titanium as a solute in the alloy produces wettable cand termodinamically stable compounds, increasing the ceramics wetting beahviour

The sharp consumption of natural resources by the construction industry has motivated numerous studies concerning the application of waste to replace partially or fully, some materials, such as aggregates, thereby reducing the environmental impact caused by the extraction of sand and crushing process. The application of stone dust from crushing process arising as an aggregate for the production of Portland cement concrete is a viable alternative in view of the high cost of natural sands, in addition to the environmental damage which causes its operation to the environment. The stone dust has reduced cost compared to natural sand because it is produced in the beds of their own quarries, which are usually located close to major urban centers. This study examined the feasibility of using stone dust from the crushing of rock gneisses in the state of Bahia, replacing natural quartz sand. In the development of scientific study was conducted to characterize physical and chemical raw materials applied and molded cylindrical specimens , using as reference values Fck 20, Fck 25 and Fck 30 MPa ( resistance characteristic of the concrete after 28 days) in following compositions stone powder: 10%, 30%, 50 %, 100% and 100% with additive. The specimens were cured and subjected to the tests of compressive strength and water absorption, then the samples were subjected to the tests of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results obtained showed that the composition with 10% stone powder showed the best results regarding the physical and mechanical tests performed, confirming the reduction in compressive strength and increased water uptake increased as the content of the powder stone in the concrete composition

The industrial production of ornamental rocks and the burning of coffee husk generate waste that is discarded into the environment. However, with the study of the incorporation of these residues in ceramic products, may be found an alternative to reducing environmental impacts and detrimental effects on human health caused by its indiscriminate disposal of waste in nature. Thus, this work aimed to study the addition of ashes of the coffee husk and granite residue in matrix of red ceramic. The raw materials were dry milled and sieved to mesh 100. To characterize the raw materials were carried out analyzes of X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), particle size analysis (PSA), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). Six formulations were prepared where the clay content was kept constant (70%wt) and ashes contents and granite residue varied from 10, 15, 20 and 30%. Dilatometrics analyzes were performed at four selected formulations, containing them: 100% clay (A100); 70% clay and 30% ashes (A70C30); 70% clay and 30% granite residue (A70G30); and 70% clay, 15% granite residue and 15% ashes (A70G15C15). The samples were prepared by uniaxial compaction with pressure of 25 MPa, and fired at temperatures of 800°C, 850ºC, 900ºC, 950ºC, 1000ºC and 1100°C. Assays were performed to determine the linear shrinkage of burning (LSB), water absorption (WA), apparent porosity (AP), density (D) and tensile bending. Also were performed analyzes of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the samples fired. The formulations incorporating granite residue and/or ashes reached the required limits of water absorption according to NBR 15270-1 and NBR 15310 and tensile bending according to classical literature (SANTOS, 1989) necessary for the production of tiles and ceramic block for masonry sealing

The general objective of this study was to contribute to the understanding of the chemical evolution of fluids that percolate through carbonate rocks of the Jandaíra Formation. The oxidation and reduction conditions in which grains, source and cement were formed was investigated using the cathodoluminescence technique (CL). The study area is located in the west part of the Potiguar Basin (Fazenda Belém field) and Rosário Ledge (Felipe Guerra municipality, State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil). The analysis of thin sections of carbonate rocks under CL revealed that grains (allochemical or not) and diagenetic products (micritization, dolomitization, neomorphism and cementation) exhibit since absence of luminescence the various luminescence colors (yellow, orange, red, brown, and blue) in a variety of intensities. As pure calcite shows dark blue luminescence, the occurrence of different luminescence colors in calcite crystals suggest one or more punctual crystal defects such as free electron, free space and impurity. The dyeing of thin sections with alizarin and potassium ferrocyanide revealed the absence of ferrous carbonate in the different lithotypes of Jandaíra Formation. Therefore, the different colors and intensities of CL observed in these rocks are probably caused by the presence of ion activators such as Mn2+ and is not an activator/inhibitor combination. In the same way, the absence of luminescence is very probably caused by the absence of activator ions and not due to the low concentration of inhibitor ions such as Fe2+. The incorporation of Mn2+ in the different members of the Jandaíra Formation must have been controlled by the redox state of the depositional environment and diagenesis. Therefore, it is possible that the luminescent members have been formed (e.g.,ooids) or have been modified (gastropod neomorphism) under reduction conditions in the depositional environments, in subsurface during the burial, or, in the case of Rosario Ledge samples , during the post-burial return to surface conditions. As regards the sudden changes from low to moderate and to strong luminescence, these features should indicate the precipitation of a fluid with chemical fluctuations, which formed the frequent zonations in the block cement of the Rosario Ledge samples. This study suggests that the different intensities and colors of CL should be correlated with the Mn2+ and Fe2+ contents, and stable isotopes of samples to determine the salinity, temperature, pH e Eh conditions during deposition
