Red blood cell aggregation (RBCa) is a sensitive inflammation marker. RBCa determination from erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ESR, is used since long, but is unspecific unless corrected for hematocrit, Ht. Whole blood viscosity measurement at low shear rate is also sensitive to RBCa but is cumbersome to apply. To inve…
This paper shows friction results obtained through compression ring tests for two commercially-available lubricants (i.e., Oildag and Deltaforge) applied in the hot forging of aluminum alloys. The experiments were performed with AA 6061 F aluminum alloy samples with the goal of observing the behavior of each lubricant…
Potassium dihydrogen phosphate presents a ferroelectric phase below 122 K and a paraelectric phase for T > 122 K. X-ray scattering measurements were performed in order to verify the mechanism of the phase transition from point group C2v19 to C2v¹19 at 119 K induced by DC electric field; in other words, a change of the…
Átomos de oxigênio, presentes em metais com estrutura cristalina cúbica de corpo centrado, são localizados preferencialmente em sítios octaedrais. Na ausência de uma tensão mecânica externa, estes átomos são distribuídos aleatoriamente. Na presença de oscilações mecânicas, a redistribuição dos átomos nos diferentes sí…
Sintered metallic porous structures have an application as capillary structures in two-phase heat transfer loops. In this work the manufacturing procedure of tubular porous structures for capillary pump application is discussed. The application of porous structures on capillary pumping systems requires porosity higher…
In the last years the possibility of creating new conducting polymers exploring the concept of copolymerization (different structural monomeric units) has attracted much attention from experimental and theoretical points of view. Due to the rich carbon reactivity an almost infinite number of new structures is possible…
Bi4Ge3O12 (bismuth germanate - BGO) single crystals were produced by the Czochralski technique and their electrical and dielectric properties were investigated by impedance spectroscopy. The isothermal ac measurements were performed for temperatures from room temperature up to 750 °C, but only the data taken above 500…
HCx powder metallurgy steel contains in its composition high contents of Cr and C, and significant quantities of alloy elements typical of tool steels (Mo, V, W), to provide the corrosion resistance of stainless steel with wear resistance of tool steels. HCx appears to be a suitable material for applications in aggres…
In the field of biomedical applications a special interest exists regarding the study of the physicochemical and mechanical behaviour of materials, with special focus on the electrochemical degradation of metal/ceramic interfaces. In fact, metal/ceramic interfaces may be present in several biomedical devices, ranging…
This work investigated the influence of the aggregate's aspect ratio on the fracture behavior of a low cement aluminum silicate refractory castable treated at two different temperatures (110 °C and 1000 °C). The aggregates were cylindrical pellets with an aspect ratio of 1, 2, 3 and 4, produced by extruding a mixture…
Crystalline, electric and fracture properties of Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) thin films are strongly affected by annealing temperatures in rapid treatment annealing (RTA) of metal organic decomposition (MOD). X-ray diffraction (XRD), RT66A standard ferroelectric analyzer and Vickers indentation method were used to invest…
Novel approach to rheological modelling of a fly ash-water mixture is proposed. The model is first tested against the available experimental data for a corn starch-water, a glass beads-water and a fly ash-water mixture and then used taking the advantage of available CFD code for a calculation of major and minor losses…
This work presents an experimental investigation which correlates the flexure load capacity loss of reinforced concrete beams with the amount of steel cross section loss due to localized corrosion of the embedded steel. Concrete beams (100x150x1500 mm) with the central portion contaminated by chlorides, placed during…
In this study, the MAXIM technique was used in an attempt to clarify the phase transformation sequence that occurs during in situ annealing of galvanized samples. A diffractometer equipped with a novel imaging system comprising a Micro-Channel Plate in front of a CCD camera was used. The galvanized samples were produc…
The distance of concrete structures from the sea is an important aspect when studying the deleterious effect of airborne salinity in marine environment zone. It permits to know how the durability of structures is affected by increasing the distance from the sea. This paper presents results of an experimental work on a…
The ASTA4 876-91 standard establishes a corrosion forecast of concrete reinforced bar by measuring the electrochemical potential. This forecast is based on thermodynamic considerations without taking into account the kinetic of the corrosion process. A comparison was made between the results obtained based on this sta…
This paper deals with theoretical foundations of micromechanical constitutive modeling of porous polycrystalline ceramic materials under compression. The porosity of the material is assumed to be closed and distributed in grains and along grain boundaries. It strongly influences both material elastic features and micr…
