Discarded polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles have damaged our ecosystem. Problems of marine fauna conservation and land fertility have been related to the disposal of these materials. Recycled fibre is an opportunity to reduce the levels of waste in the world and increase the mechanical performance of the concrete. PET as concrete reinforceme...

This paper focuses on the possibility of adapting the centrifugal slip casting method to obtain zirconia-alumina composite materials in the form of finished tube-shaped products. These types of products, due to their unique properties, can be utilised, for example, in the transport of aggressive substances, even in extreme temperatures or corrosive...

Alcohol-soluble comb copolymers were synthesized from rubbery poly(oxyethylene methacrylate) (POEM) and glassy polyacrylamide (PAcAm) via economical and facile free-radical polymerization. The synthesis of comb copolymers was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies. The bicontinuous microp...

Over the last 10 years, 40% of approved oral drugs exhibited a significant effect of food on their pharmacokinetics (PK) and currently the only method to characterize the effect of food on drug absorption, which is recognized by the authorities, is to conduct a clinical evaluation. Within the pharmaceutical industry, there is a significant effort t...

ABSTRACT: The last Brazilian agricultural frontier known as MATOPIBA, an acronym for the states of Maranhão, Tocantins, Piaui and Bahia, is a region that has stood out in the scenario of modern large-scale agriculture intensive in capital and technology. However, barriers related to the transportation system, especially regarding the high logistics...

Artificial lighting systems are used in commercial greenhouses to ensure year-round yields. Current Light Emitting Diode (LED) technologies improved the system efficiency. Nevertheless, having artificial lighting systems extended for hectares with power densities over 50W/m2 causes energy and power demand of greenhouses to be really significant. Th...

Howland circuits have been widely used in Electrical Bioimpedance Spectroscopy applications as reliable current sources. This paper presents an algorithm based on Differential Evolution for the automated design of Enhanced Howland Sources according to arbitrary design constraints while respecting the Howland ratio condition. Results showed that the...

Peroralni liofilizati so trdne farmacevtske oblike, za katere je značilno, da po aplikaciji v ustno votlino v nekaj sekundah razpadejo in sprostijo zdravilno učinkovino. V ustni votlini se učinkovina lahko delno absorbira, s čimer se izognemo metabolizmu prvega prehoda, kar lahko vodi v njeno večjo biološko uporabnost. Zaradi hitrega razpada in eno...

V magistrskem delu je predstavljena študija, kako različne strategije obdelave vplivajo na kakovost površin, na konkretnem izdelku-turbini. Osredotočena je na dve strategiji in sicer na t.i. točkovno strategijo frezanja, ki je primerna bolj za razgibane, proste površine in na bočno strategijo frezanja, idealno za turbinske lopatice. Izdelali smo CA...
