In this work we report our achievements in the elaboration and optical characterizations of low-losses suspended core optical fibers elaborated from As2S3 glass. For preforms elaboration, alternatively to other processes like the stack and draw or extrusion, we use a process based on mechanical drilling. The drawing of these drilled performs into fibers allows reaching a suspended core geometry, in which a 2 μm diameter core is linked to the fiber clad region by three supporting struts. The different fibers that have been drawn show losses close to 0.9 dB/m at 1.55 μm. The suspended core waveguide geometry has also an efficient influence on the chromatic dispersion and allows its management. Indeed, the zero dispersion wavelength, which is around 5 μm in the bulk glass, is calculated to be shifted towards around 2μm in our suspended core fibers. In order to qualify their nonlinearity we have pumped them at 1.995 μm with the help of a fibered ns source. We have observed a strong non linear response with evidence of spontaneous Raman scattering and strong spectral broadening. © 2011 SPIE.

This study was carried out in a marine area at Cocanha Beach, Caraguatatuba, southeastern Brazil, aiming to determine the most appropriated density for brown mussel (Perna perna L.) cultured in suspended socks (French System), in order to reduce costs with acquisition of juvenile mussels (seed) and labor. In September 2007, 15 socks measuring 2 m each were reared at densities of 300, 400 and 500 seeds/m. After 250 days, mussels were harvested and separated in two length classes: non-commercial (<6 cm) and commercial (≥6 cm). Mussels were counted and weighed. In August 2008, the experiment was repeated with 1-m-long socks at lower densities (200, 250 and 300 seeds/m) in order to identify differences among commercial-sized mussels only. Data were analyzed by ANOVA or nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by Tukey or SNK tests, respectively. The results suggest that it is feasible to use densities from 250 to 300 seeds/m, since biomass yields are similar to those registered at higher densities and the use of mussel seed is therefore optimized. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.

A caracterização das águas superficiais e intersticiais nos estuários é fundamental para desvendar as condições ambientais, qualidade ambiental e mudanças sazonais, que podem ocorrer em espaço menor como é o caso do furo da ilha de Colares. Este trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar a influência da sazonalidade nas águas estuarinas na foz Norte e Sul do furo da ilha de Colares e da contribuição das águas intersticiais para as águas superficiais. Os parâmetros físicos e químicos, e nutrientes contemplados são: índice pluviométrico (IP), temperatura, salinidade, pH, condutividade elétrica, sólidos totais dissolvidos, material particulado em suspensão, oxigênio dissolvido, profundidade de Secchi, nitrato, nitrito, N-amoniacal, fosfato, silicato e sulfato. A determinação destes parâmetros ocorreu de forma simultânea em cada foz do furo de Colares durante um ciclo de maré (13 horas) nos periodos chuvoso (10/04/2013) e menos chuvoso (05/10/2013). Os resultados revelam que a sazonalidade interfere nas condições abióticas das águas estuarinas do furo da ilha de Colares e deduz que o IP é o fator de maior efeito das mudanças dos parâmetros físicos e químicos e, sobretudo o maior responsável na mobilidade, disponibilidade e distribuição dos nutrientes dissolvidos, que foram encontrados em concentrações maiores no período chuvoso. Ainda os nutrientes nitrato e N-amoniacal foram considerados muito elevados na foz Norte, possivelmente relacionados com a influência de atividades antropogênica. Contudo foram considerados dentro dos limites estabelecidos pela Resolução 357 da CONAMA/05. Na foz Sul ocorreu níveis de pH fora do padrão estipulado pela Resolução da CONAMA, porém o fenômeno foi considerado natural visto que este em especifico se encontra distante de atividades antropogênicas. No período menos chuvoso o N-amoniacal foi considerado ausente na foz Norte e Sul. O manguezal foi considerado como fonte de salinidade, silicato e sulfato para as águas superficiais.

This paper aims to contribute to the three-dimensional generalization of numerical prediction of crack propagation through the formulation of finite elements with embedded discontinuities. The analysis of crack propagation in two-dimensional problems yields lines of discontinuity that can be tracked in a relatively simple way through the sequential construction of straight line segments oriented according to the direction of failure within each finite element in the solid. In three-dimensional analysis, the construction of the discontinuity path is more complex because it requires the creation of plane surfaces within each element, which must be continuous between the elements. In the method proposed by Chaves (2003) the crack is determined by solving a problem analogous to the heat conduction problem, established from local failure orientations, based on the stress state of the mechanical problem. To minimize the computational effort, in this paper a new strategy is proposed whereby the analysis for tracking the discontinuity path is restricted to the domain formed by some elements near the crack surface that develops along the loading process. The proposed methodology is validated by performing three-dimensional analyses of basic problems of experimental fractures and comparing their results with those reported in the literature.

We demonstrate the supercontinuum (SC) generation in a suspended-core As2S3 chalcogenide microstructured optical fiber (MOF). The variation of SC is investigated by changing the fiber length, pump peak power and pump wavelength. In the case of long fibers (20 and 40 cm), the SC ranges are discontinuous and stop at the wavelengths shorter than 3500 nm, due to the absorption of fiber. In the case of short fibers (1.3 and 2.4 cm), the SC ranges are continuous and can extend to the wavelengths longer than 4 μm. The SC broadening is observed when the pump peak power increases from 0.24 to 1.32 kW at 2500 nm. The SC range increases with the pump wavelength changing from 2200 to 2600 nm, corresponding to the dispersion of As2S3 MOF from the normal to anomalous region. The SC generation is simulated by the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The simulation includes the SC difference between 1.3 and 2.4 cm long fiber by 2500 nm pumping, the variation of SC with pump peak power in 2.4 cm long fiber, and the variation of SC with pump wavelength in 1.3 cm long fiber. The simulation agrees well with the experiment.
