Steam injection is an oil recovery method accomplished by introducing steam directly into the oil well to the reservoir. The steam causes dilation of the casing, which, after reduction in temperature, tends to return to the initial dimensions: causing the formation of cracks in the cement and loss of hydraulic isolation.. In this context, the type of the SBR latex is used to improve the flexibility of the cement matrix by reducing the amount of fatigue failure. To prevent these failures, the mechanical resistance parameters should be carefully adjusted to well conditions. This work aims to study the mechanical behavior of cement slurry systems additivated with SBR latex for cementing oil wells subject to steam injection. Through the central composite factorial design was studied the behavior of the compressive strength by varying the density of the paste between 1.75 g /cm³ (14.6 lb/ Gal) and 1.89 g/cm³ (15,8lb / Gal), curing time between 4 days and 28 days and concentration of SBR Latex between 0 L / m³ and 534.722 L / m³ (0 gpc and 4 gpc). The results showed that increasing the concentration of SBR latex, within the given ranges, there was a decreased compression resistance and elastic modulus by increasing the elastic deformability of the slurry. From the results it can determine best slurries formulation conditions in oil well cementing operations subject to steam injection.

Introdução: O tratamento endovascular da aorta torácica (TEVAR) é uma modalidade terapêutica emergente que tem vindo a revolucionar a abordagem de diferentes tipos de patologia da aorta na sua localização torácica. Objetivos: Avaliação da experiência institucional do serviço de angiologia e cirurgia vascular. Métodos: Análise retrospetiva da série consecutiva de todos os doentes com patologia da aorta torácica e/ou toracoabdominal submetidos a TEVAR na nossa instituição. Foram excluídos aqueles com uso concomitante de endopróteses fenestradas/ramificadas abdominais. Resultados: Desde abril de 2005 até abril de 2014, 79 doentes foram submetidos a TEVAR, com idade média de 66 ± 12,83 anos (máx: 86; mín: 14). As indicações incluíram: 46 aneurismas (58%), 17 dissecções aórticas clássicas tipo B (22%), 13 no contexto de outras síndromes aórticas agudas (16%), 2 por ateroembolismo (3%) e um por fístula aortoesofágica (1%). Na patologia aneurismática, a distribuição anatómica da doença foi a seguinte: 5 na aorta ascendente e arco aórtico (11%), 35 na aorta torácica descendente (76%) e 6 toracoabdominal (13%). O diâmetro médio das dilatações aneurimáticas foi de 69,64 mm (máx: 150 mm). A rotura foi uma apresentação da patologia em 21,5% dos doentes (n = 17); 20,9% dos doentes tinham antecedentes de cirurgia aórtica prévia. A dissecção aórtica tipo B complicada foi a segunda indicação mais comum, sendo de apresentação aguda em 13 (76%) e crónica em 4 (24%). As complicações na base da intervenção foram dilatação aneurismática em 35% (n = 6), malperfusão com isquemia de órgão alvo 47% (n = 8), desconhecida em 18% (n = 3). Foi realizada extensão distal com stent descoberto (Petticoat) em 9 casos (41,2%) e foram realizados procedimentos adjuvantes em 18% (stenting renal n = 2; stenting ilíaco n = 1). Dentro das outras síndromes aórticas agudas, o TEVAR foi realizado no contexto de úlcera aórtica penetrante (n = 4), hematoma intramural (n = 4) e os restantes por rotura/pseudoaneurisma (n = 5). As endopróteses utilizadas foram: 32 Valiant Medtronic®, 15 TAG Gore®, 25 Zenith TX2 Cook®, 2 Zenith TX1 Cook®, uma Relay Plus®, 3 Talent Medtronic® e outras em 1%. A mediana de dias de cuidados intensivos foi 2 (intervalo 0-42) e a mediana de suporte tranfusional foi de 2 UCE. A taxa de mortalidade aos 30 dias ou intra-hospital foi de 18% (n = 14). Atendendo ao timing da cirurgia, a taxa de mortalidade aferida nos casos electivos foi de 8% (4/50) e nos urgentes atinge os 35% (10/29). Intraoperatoriamente foram tratadas 7 complicações relacionadas com vaso de acesso membro, 2 casos de dissecção aórtica iatrogénica, um caso de trombose arterial inferior e um endoleak tipo IA. A taxa de reintervenções foi de 17%, com as seguintes indicações: 9 endoleaks, 2 isquemias mesentéricas e 2 fístulas aortoesofágicas. Conclusões: A série apresentada traduz uma experiência institucional favorável com resultados reprodutíveis e que o TEVAR é um procedimento seguro e eficaz para o tratamento de diferentes patologias da aorta torácica, quando comparado com o tratamento cirúrgico aberto.

A síndrome Takotsubo (STT) é uma forma adquirida e transitória de disfunção sistólica, cuja apresentação clínica e eletrocardiográfica mimetiza um enfarte agudo do miocárdio. A STT é também conhecida como miocardiopatia de stress, síndrome do «coração partido», balonamento apical, insuficiência cardíaca aguda reversível, miocárdio «atordoado» (forma neurogénica) ou miocardiopatia aguda das catecolaminas. Os autores descrevem uma apresentação rara de STT após procedimento anestésico. Adolescente de 14 anos, sexo feminino, com antecedentes pessoais de enxaqueca hemiplé- gica e quisto pineal, submetida a ressonância magnética (RM) cranioencefálica de controlo. Durante a indução anestésica com propofol verificou-se bradicardia, revertida com atropina, seguida de taquidisritmia ventricular, revertida com lidocaína e murro pré-cordial. Nas primeiras horas de internamento evoluiu para edema pulmonar associado a insuficiência respiratória global por disfunção ventricular esquerda aguda. O ecocardiograma transtorácico mostrou dilatação do ventrículo esquerdo com hipocinesia global e fração de ejeção reduzida (< 30%). O eletrocardiograma revelou taquicardia sinusal persistente e alterações inespecíficas do segmento ST. Os biomarcadores cardíacos encontravam-se elevados (troponina 2,42 ng/ml, proBNP 8248 pg/ml). Foi medicada com diuréticos, IECA, digitálico e dopamina, com melhoria clínica, bioquímica e ecocardiográfica ao quarto dia. Os ecocardiogramas subsequentes mostraram normalização da função ventricular. A doente teve alta medicada com carvedilol, que suspendeu após normalização da função cardíaca e RM cardíaca não ter revelado alterações. Estão descritos poucos casos de STT em idade pediátrica. Alguns são desencadeados por patologia aguda do sistema nervoso central, mas nem todos cumprem os critérios de diagnóstico clássicos. Neste caso, o procedimento anestésico poderá ter desencadeado a STT.

Novel cementing materials formulations containing flexible polymeric admixtures have been studied aiming at improving the mechanical behavior of oil well cement slurries submitted to steam injection. However, research activities in this sector are still under development. The steam injected directly into the well causes casing dilation, which after a reduction in temperature, tends to return to its original dimensions, resulting in crack formation and hydraulic isolation loss of the well, which will result in shortening of well life. In this scenario, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of Portland-based slurries containing SBR latex, applied in oil well cementing of wells submitted to steam injection. Were formulated slurries with densities of 1.797 g/cm3 (15.0 lb/Gal) and 1.869 g/cm3 (15.6 lb/Gal), containing admixtures with a latex concentration of 0; 66.88; 133.76; 200.64 and 267.52 L/m3 (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 gpc). Tests including rheology, fluid loss control, thickening time, API compressive strength and splitting tensile strength, beyond steam injection simulation. Microstrutural characteristics of the slurries were also performed (XRD, TG, FTIR and SEM). The results showed that increasing the polymer concentration increased in the rheological properties and fluid loss, and a decrease in the elasticity modulus of the cement slurries. The results obtained showed that the slurries can be applied in cementing operations of oil wells submitted to steam injection.

Cells the solid oxide fuel are systems capable to directly convert energy of a chemical reaction into electric energy in clean, quiet way and if its components in the solid state differentiate of excessively the techniques for having all. Its more common geometric configurations are: the tubular one and to glide. Geometry to glide beyond the usual components (anode, cathode and electrolyte) needs interconnect and sealant. E the search for materials adjusted for these components is currently the biggest challenge found for the production of the cells. The sealants need to present chemical stability in high temperatures, to provoke electric isolation, to have coefficient of compatible thermal expansion with the excessively component ones. For presenting these characteristics the glass-ceramics materials are recommended for the application. In this work the study of the partial substitution of the ZrO2 for the Al2O3 in system LZS became it aiming at the formation of system LZAS, this with the addition of natural spodumene with 10, 20 and 30% in mass. The compositions had been casting to a temperature of 1500°C and later quickly cooled with the objective to continue amorphous. Each composition was worn out for attainment of a dust with average diameter of approximately 3μm and characterized by the techniques of DRX, FRX, MEV, dilatometric analysis and particle size analysis. Later the samples had been conformed and treated thermally with temperatures in the interval between 700-1000 °C, with platform of 10 minutes and 1 hour. The analyses for the treated samples had been: dilatometric analysis, DRX, FRX, electrical conductivity and tack. The results point with respect to the viability of the use of system LZAS for use as sealant a time that had presented good results as isolating electric, they had adhered to a material with similar α of the components of a SOFC and had presented steady crystalline phases

The Potiguar basin has large fields of viscous oil where the used method for recovering is based on vapor injection; this operation is carried out by injecting vapor in the oilwell directly, without the protection of a revetment through thermal insulation, what causes its dilation and, consequently, cracks in the cement placed on the annular, and lost of hydraulic insulation; this crack is occasioned by the phenomenon of retrogression of the compressive resistance due to the conversion of the hydrated calcium silicate in phases calcium-rich, caused by the high temperatures in the wells, subjected to thermal recuperation. This work has evaluated the application of composite pastes with addition of residue of biomass of ground sugar-cane bagasse as anti-retrogression mineral admixture for cementation of oil-wells subjected to thermal recuperation. The addition of the mineral residue was carried out considering a relative amount of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 59% in relation to cement mass, trying to improve the microstructure of the paste, still being developed a reference paste only with cement and a paste with addition of 40% of silica flour - renowned material in the oil industry as anti-retrogression additive. Pozzolanic activity of the ash was evaluated through XRD, TG/DTG, as the resistance to compression, and it was also determined the physical and mechanical behavior of the pastes when submitted to cure at low temperatures (22 and 38º C); besides it was evaluated the behavior of the pastes when submitted to two cycles of cure at high temperature (280ºC) and pressure (7 MPa). It was verified that the ash of the sugar-cane biomass presents pozzolanic reaction and has great efficiency in decrease the permeability of the paste by filler effect, as well as that addition of ash in a relative amount of 10, 20 e 30% increases cured compressive resistance at low temperatures. It was also showed that the ash in a relative amount of 40% and 59% has very significant efficiency as anti-retrogression additive, since it prevents the decrease of compressive resistance and forms hydrated calcium silicate type xenotlita and tobermorita which have more resistance and stability in high temperatures

The foundations for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in adults are laid in childhood and accelerated by the presence of comorbid conditions. Early detection of manifestations of cardiovascular pathology is an important clinical objective to identify those at risk for subsequent cardiovascular morbidity and events, and to initiate behavioral and medical interventions to reduce risk. Children were once considered to be at low risk, but with the growing health concerns related to lifestyle, cardiovascular screening may be needed earlier. Several noninvasive procedures are available to assess the cumulative effect of these exposures. These include carotid ultrasound, flow-mediated dilation, pulse wave velocity and measures left ventricular mass. This dissertation analyzes the comorbid conditions that increase cardiovascular risk in youth, namely obesity and low physical fitness, using carotid intima-media thickness to objectively detect early manifestations of cardiovascular pathology. Until recently researchers have not used surrogate markers of subclinical atherosclerosis to examine the role of a single bout of exercise. Utilizing the acute exercise model can be advantageous as it allows for an efficient manipulation of exercise variables and permits greater experimental control of confounding variables. It is possible that the effects of a bout of exercise can predict the effects of chronic exercise. We analyze the physiological factors pertinent to arterial stiffness using arterial distensibility and pulse wave velocity in the context of acute exercise in children and adults. In some instances, those who amend their trajectory by not maintaining risk factors into adulthood experience reductions in subclinical markers to levels associated with never having had the risk factor. Though avoidance of risk factors in youth is ideal, there is still a window for intervention where long-lasting cardiovascular effects might be avoided. In this dissertation we present preliminary findings linking modifiable youth risk factors to subclinical markers of CVD in adulthood.

O comportamento ao fogo de pilares de aço inseridos em paredes de edifícios é substancialmente diferente dos pilares quando isolados. O contacto com as paredes provoca por um lado um efeito de redução das temperaturas, revelando-se de certa forma favorável em termos de comportamento ao fogo, mas por outro lado provocando um aquecimento diferencial das secções levando ao aparecimento de esforços desfavoráveis (momentos fletores) nos pilares, aumentando a instabilidade. Este último fenómeno designa-se de “Thermal Bowing”, provocado pelo aquecimento diferencial, deve ser avaliado por uma quantificação rigorosa das temperaturas nos perfis de aço. O estudo foi realizado em dois níveis, numérico e experimental. Foram testados pilares inseridos em paredes de alvenaria, tanto com a alma paralela como perpendicular à parede. Pretendeu-se assim, avaliar o efeito da ação térmica diferencial no comportamento estrutural dos pilares e concluir qual o efeito das paredes sobre estes na sua resistência estrutural. Foram ainda alvo de análise o nível de carregamento e a esbelteza do pilar. Compararam-se os resultados dos ensaios experimentais com os estudos numéricos, reproduzindo as condições utilizadas nos ensaios experimentais, por forma a contribuir para o desenvolvimento/melhoria dos métodos de dimensionamento dos pilares em situação de incêndio. O programa experimental comportou a realização de ensaios em pilares de aço de secção H, embebidos em paredes. A modelação numérica dos ensaios foi realizada utilizando o programa de computador de elementos finitos ABAQUS, elaborando-se uma análise geométrica e material não - linear. Os principais resultados deste trabalho de investigação foram uma melhor avaliação da evolução de temperaturas na secção transversal dos pilares de aço com aquecimento diferencial, inseridos em paredes, deslocamentos, forças de restrição e esforço axial daí decorrentes. A partir destes resultados, realizou-se uma análise detalhada do deslocamento do centro de gravidade ao longo do tempo, provocada pela degradação das propriedades mecânicas do aço.

Este relatório foi realizado no âmbito do estágio curricular do Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária da Universidade de Évora, que decorreu no Centro Hospitalar Veterinário de 1 de Setembro de 2015 a 1 de Fevereiro de 2016. A primeira componente trata da casuística acompanhada durante o estágio. A área da clínica médica representada com maior frequência foi a gastroenterologia. A segunda componente consiste na revisão bibliográfica sobre a síndrome de dilatação e torção gástrica, complementada com dois casos acompanhados durante o estágio. Esta ocorre principalmente em cães de raça de grande porte, como o Dogue Alemão, o Pastor Alemão, o Poodle Médio e o Rottweiler. O diagnóstico implica uma anamnese completa, tendo como queixas timpanismo abdominal e vómito não produtivo, confirmando-se por raio x abdominal. O tratamento recomendado passa pela rehidratação, descompressão gástrica, gastrectomia parcial (em caso de necrose gástrica) e gastropexia. A gastropexia profilática está recomendada em raças predispostas; Abstract: Small Animal Practice This report was elaborated following a traineeship under the context of integrated masters degree in veterinary medicine of Universidade de Évora at the Centro Hospitalar Veterinario from September 1st, 2015 to February, 1st, 2016. The first component covers the casuistry accompanied during the mentioned traineeship. The most prevalent clinical area was the gastroenterology. The second component consists of a literature review of gastric dilatation volvulus syndrome along the report of two cases followed. This syndrome often occurs in giant dog breeds. Great Dane, German Shepherd, Standard Poodle and Rottweiler, are examples. The main complains are retching and bloat, and the diagnostic is made by abdominal radiography. The treatment consists in stabilization of the patient, gastric decompression, partial gastrectomy (if needed) and gastropexy. Prophylactic grastopexy is the recommended procedure for predisposed breeds.
