The temperature dependencies of specific heat and spin susceptibility of a coupled dx2-y2 + idxy superconductor in the presence of a weak dxy component are investigated in the tight-binding model (1) on square lattice and (2) on a lattice with orthorhombic distortion. As the temperature is lowered past the critical temperature Tc, first a less ordered dx2-y2 superconductor is created, which changes to a more ordered dx2-y2 + idxy superconductor at Tcl(< Tc). This manifests in two second order phase transitions identified by two jumps in specific heat at Tc and Tc1. The temperature dependencies of the superconducting observables exhibit a change from power-law to exponential behavior as temperature is lowered below Tc1 and confirm the new phase transition. © 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

A Pesquisa Operacional (PO) oferece ferramentas, usando modelos matemáticos, que descrevem situações do mundo real das empresas e do governo. Estes modelos permitem otimizar lucros ou minimizar custos através da Programação Linear (PL), considerada a maior descoberta da matemática aplicada do século XX. Sua aplicabilidade é imensa e a programação computacional é simples. Por exemplo, o uso de software como o Excel, garante encontrar a solução para problemas que podem envolver um número grande de variáveis e assim auxiliar os agentes na tomada de decisão. Vários Prêmios Nobel em Economia tiveram a PL envolvido em seu conteúdo, por exemplo, os prêmios dados a Leonid Kantorovich, Leonid Hurwicz, Tjalling Koopmans Kenneth, Kenneth J. Arrow e Robert Dorfman, Paul Samuelson e Robert Solow. A Teoria das Filas, utilizada neste trabalho, é uma ferramenta da PO que envolve distribuição de probabilidades e permite investigar a chegada e atendimento de clientes, a partir de certos números de canais disponíveis. O caso em análise é uma fila do caixa rápido do supermercado Oba Hortifruti, localizado na cidade de Indaiatuba - São Paulo. A fila possui característica M/M/1, no qual o primeiro M denota que a chegada de clientes à fila segue uma distribuição de Poisson, o segundo M denota que o tempo de atendimento dos clientes segue a distribuição Exponencial e o 1 significa que há apenas um canal de atendimento. A aplicação desta ferramenta sugere uma otimização do serviço para que o mesmo se torne estável (objetivo qualitativo), gerando assim uma maior satisfação do cliente com o atendimento, podendo elevar a margem de lucro do estabelecimento em estudo (objetivo quantitativo)

PURPOSE: In view of reports in the literature on the benefits achieved with the use of platform switching, described as the use of an implant with a larger diameter than the abutment diameter, the goal being to prevent the (previously) normal bone loss down to the first thread that occurs around most implants, thus enhancing soft tissue aesthetics and stability and the need for implant inclination due to bone anatomy in some cases, the aim of this study was to evaluate bone stress distribution on peri-implant bone, by using three-dimensional finite element analysis to simulate the influence of implants with different abutment angulations (0 and 15 degrees) in platform switching. METHODS: Four mathematical models of an implant-supported central incisor were created with varying abutment angulations: straight abutment (S1 and S2) and angulated abutment at 15 degrees (A1 and A2), submitted to 2 loading conditions (100 N): S1 and A1-oblique loading (45 degrees) and S2 and A2-axial loading, parallel to the long axis of the implant. Maximum (σmax) and minimum (σmin) principal stress values were obtained for cortical and trabecular bone. RESULTS: Models S1 and A1 showed higher σmax in cortical and trabecular bone when compared with S2 and A2. The highest σmax values (in MPa) in the cortical bone were found in S1 (28.5), followed by A1 (25.7), S2 (11.6), and A2 (5.15). For the trabecular bone, the highest σmax values were found in S1 (7.53), followed by A1 (2.87), S2 (2.85), and A2 (1.47). CONCLUSIONS: Implants with straight abutments generated the highest stress values in bone. In addition, this effect was potentiated when the load was applied obliquely.

The alveolar ridge shape plays an important role in predicting the demand on the support tooth and alveolar bone in the removable partial denture (RPD) treatment. However, these data are unclear when the RPD is associated with implants. This study evaluated the influence of the alveolar ridge shape on the stress distribution of a free-end saddle RPD partially supported by implant using 2-dimensioanl finite element analysis (FEA). Four mathematical models (M) of a mandibular hemiarch simulating various alveolar ridge shapes (1-distal desceding, 2- concave, 3-horizontal and 4-distal ascending) were built. Tooth 33 was placed as the abutment. Two RPDs, one supported by tooth and fibromucosa (MB) and other one supported by tooth and implant (MC) were simulated. MA was the control (no RPD). The load (50N) were applied simultaneously on each cusp. Appropriate boundary conditions were assigned on the border of alveolar bone. Ansys 10.0 software was used to calculate the stress fields and the von Mises equivalent stress criteria (σvM) was applied to analyze the results. The distal ascending shape showed the highest σvM for cortical and medullar bone. The alveolar ridge shape had little effect on changing the σvM based on the same prosthesis, mainly around the abutment tooth.

In this paper we present two studies, the first one completed and the second one in development, which are based in teaching approaches that propose the qualitative study of mathematical models as a strategy for the teaching and learning of mathematical concepts. These teaching approaches focus on subjects from Higher Education such as Introduction to Ordinary Differential Equations and Topics of Differential and Integral Calculus. We denominate this common aspect of the teaching approaches as Model Analysis and in a preliminary level we relate it with Mathematical Modeling. Furthermore, we discuss some questions related with the choice of the theme and the role of Digital Technologies when Model Analysis is applied.
