Abstract

O uso de condicionadores de solo tem sido cada vez mais frequente nas lavouras com culturas de grãos pelos produtores no Alto Vale do Itajaí, SC. Neste aspecto, este estudo objetivou avaliar atributos químicos e físicos do solo e rendimento de grãos da soja (Glycine max) e milho (Zea mays) após a aplicação de doses de condicionador de solo em lavoura de plantio direto consolidado. O experimento foi conduzido em uma propriedade rural no munícipio de Agronômica, SC, em duas áreas experimentais, uma cultivada com milho e outra com soja na safra de verão 2017/2018, ambas em sistema de plantio direto consolidado. O delineamento foi em blocos casualizados com três repetições. Os tratamentos avaliados foram a aplicação das doses de 0 (testemunha), 10, 20 e 40 litros por hectare do condicionador de solo à base de Lignita, aplicadas sobre a palhada de ervilhaca e aveia antes da semeadura da soja e do milho. Avaliaram-se os teores de K trocável, de matéria orgânica, CTCpH 7,0, pH em água na camada de 0-5cm de profundidade, a macro, micro e porosidade total e a densidade do solo nas camadas 0-5, 5-10, 10-15 e 15-20cm. Também se avaliou o rendimento de grãos do milho e da soja. Conclui-se que a aplicação de condicionador de solo não melhora os atributos químicos e físicos do solo, e não tem efeito sobre o rendimento de grãos de milho e soja nas doses avaliadas.

Abstract

We introduce a strategy to develop optimally designed fields for continuous dynamical decoupling. Using our methodology, we obtain the optimal continuous field configuration to maximize the fidelity of a general one-qubit quantum gate. To achieve this, considering dephasing-noise perturbations, we employ an auxiliary qubit instead of the boson bath to implement a purification scheme, which results in unitary dynamics. Employing the sub-Riemannian geometry framework for the two-qubit unitary group, we derive and numerically solve the geodesic equations, obtaining the optimal time-dependent control Hamiltonian. Also, due to the extended time required to find solutions to the geodesic equations, we train a neural network on a subset of geodesic solutions, enabling us to promptly generate the time-dependent control Hamiltonian for any desired gate, which is crucial in circuit optimization., Comment: 14 pages, 10 figures

5. Visualizing Kraus operators for dephasing noise during application of the $\sqrt{\mathrm{\mathrm{SWAP}}}$ quantum gate

Quantum Physics
Abstract

We consider the case of a $\sqrt{\mathrm{SWAP}}$ quantum gate and its optimized entangling action, via continuous dynamical decoupling, in the presence of dephasing noise. We illustrate the procedure in the specific case where only the two-qubit operation is controlled and no single-qubit operations are included in the description. To compare the optimized dynamics in the presence of noise with the ideal case, we use the standard fidelity measure. Then we discuss the importance of using optimized gates in the quantum operational-probabilistic theory. Because of their importance for the explicit construction of the completely positive maps representing the operations, we derive optimized Kraus operators in this specific case, focusing on the entanglement operation. We then show how to visualize the time evolution of each Kraus operator as a curve in a three-dimensional Euclidean space. Finally, we connect this formalism with the operational framework of quantum mechanics by describing a possible set of measurements that could be performed to obtain the Kraus operators.

16. [M(salen)]-based conducting polymer films

Abstract

This thesis reports the preparation and characterisation of poly[M(salen)] (M=Ni) conducting films bearing crown ether receptors, which were prepared via oxidative polymerisation of the [Ni(salen)] monomer. Electrochemical techniques showed that the resulting modified electrodes are electroactive, and that the electrochemical response is ligand-based. Moreover, this response was found to change irreversibly in the presence of metal cations (Cs +, Mg2+ and Ba2+), indicating the potential use of these films as sensing systems. The local structure around Ni atoms was studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and found to remain unchanged regardless of the sample physical state, occurrence of polymerisation, and changes in the polymer doping state or ion uptake. For films bearing a small and 'rigid' pseudo-crown, data show that Ba uptake occurs by allocation of the cation within the pseudo-crown. However, for films bearing the large and flexible crown 2+ ether macrocycles, Ba is coordinated to a very low number of oxygen donor atoms, which is unexpected according to solution complexation concepts. This allows more Ba2+ to bind to the polymer at the cost of less selectivity towards analyte size. Acoustic wave sensor and microscopic techniques showed that the mechanical properties of films bearing crown ether macrocycles depends on the amount of deposited electroactive material. Thin films (r < 15 nmol cm" ) consist of a uniform layer of polymer with monodisperse, small polymer islands on the top, whereas thick films (r > 100 nmol cm" ) are rough, with an underlying uniform layer decorated with large heterogeneous islands of polymer. These large islands are mechanically quite different (more liquid-like) from the dense, inner layer. Finally, the incorporation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the poly Ni(sa/e) matrix enhances the electronic/electrochemical properties of the conducting polymer, opening a new route towards the optimisation of these systems.

Abstract

Este artigo apresenta uma das edições da Feira do Conhecimento Científico e Tecnológico do Instituto Federal Catarinense Campus Rio do Sul (FETEC), evento que ocorre anualmente e já se encontra na 20ª edição. As feiras de ciências são de suma importância para aquisição de conhecimento pelos alunos e para a transferência de conhecimento às comunidades. Visando a tais interesses, a XX FETEC apresenta-se como ferramenta auxiliadora no processo de aprendizagem e desenvolvimento do senso crítico do aluno. Dentre os projetos desenvolvidos e apresentados pelos estudantes no evento realizado em agosto de 2019, a dimensão que mais se destacou foi a pesquisa, com a apresentação de vários projetos, e também foram apresentados resultados de projetos de ensino e de extensão. No Campus Rio do Sul, a maioria dos cursos, seja do ensino médio, do ensino superior ou da pós-graduação abrangem o setor agrícola. Isso se deve ao princípio norteador de criação do Instituto Federal Catarinense Campus Rio do Sul que, inicialmente, em 1995, foi criado como Escola Agrotécnica Federal e, posteriormente, transformou-se em Instituto Federal, passando a ofertar cursos ligados ao setor de informática, licenciaturas e engenharias. Desse modo, observou-se que a maioria dos projetos apresentados na XX FETEC estavam relacionados ao desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias para a agricultura.

Abstract

Neste artigo, desenvolvemos um estudo sobre a inclusão de temáticas relacionadas à cultura caiçara no Projeto Político-Pedagógico de escolas do litoral paulista. Embora haja um amplo espectro de pesquisas acadêmicas, observamos que há poucos materiais voltados ao universo escolar que versam sobre o sujeito e a cultura caiçara. A discrepância entre produção didática e produção acadêmica, somada à importância da valorização da diversidade étnico-cultural presente na Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) nos levou a desenvolver esta pesquisa. Portanto, nosso objetivo é traçar considerações a respeito da escassa presença de temáticas relacionadas à cultura caiçara em planos pedagógicos e matrizes curriculares, contrariando a legislação atual no que se refere à relação escola-comunidade. Para tanto, desenvolvemos um trabalho de abordagem qualitativa, centrado em estudo bibliográfico. Serviram de base para as reflexões, os estudos sobre cultura caiçara realizados por Adams (2000), Diegues (2004), Marcílio (2006) e Sanches (2004) e os trabalhos de Veiga (2001), Santiago (2001), Moreira e Candau (2007), Candido e Gentilini (2017), e Ferreira (2015) a respeito do Projeto Político-Pedagógico, do Currículo e da Base Nacional Curricular (BNCC). As reflexões levantadas buscam, sobretudo, mostrar os principais entraves para a não difusão da cultura caiçara no âmbito escolar. A consciência de tais barreiras pode gerar, como resultado, uma postura mais inclusiva por parte da comunidade escolar em relação à preservação da memória cultural e da identidade social dos sujeitos que integram as comunidades locais.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective: This study was designed to analyze and compare the cusp and apex movements of the maxillary canines and first molars during canine retraction in the first step of extraction space closure, and to evaluate if these teeth follow a curvilinear (acceleration and/or deceleration) movement rate. Material and Methods: Twenty-five patients (23.3 ± 5.1 years of age) were enrolled. The retraction of the maxillary canines was accomplished using nickel-titanium closed coil springs (100gf) on 0.020-in stainless steel archwire. Oblique cephalograms were traced and superimposed on the anatomic best fit of the maxilla (before the retraction [T0], and after one month [T1], three [T3], five [T5] and seven [T7] months). Statistics was based in a normally distributed data. Multilevel procedures were used to derive polynomials for each of the measurements. Student’s t-test and one-way repeated measures ANOVA were conducted. The level of significance of 5% was adopted. Results: Canine cusps and apexes did not follow a quadratic curve regarding horizontal movement (neither accelerate nor decelerate). Canine and molar cusps showed more horizontal movement than apexes (4.80 mm vs. 2.78 mm, and 2.64 mm vs. 2.17 mm, respectively). Conclusions: Canine did not accelerate or decelerate overtime horizontally; the cusps and apexes of the canines and molars showed more horizontal movement and larger rate at the beginning of canine retraction, followed by significantly smaller and constant movement rate after the first month.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new limit that promises theoretically achievable data reduction ratios up to approximately 9:1 with no perceptual loss in typical scenarios. Also, we introduce a novel Gaussian foveation scheme that provides experimentally achievable gains up to approximately 2 times the compression ratio of typical compression schemes with less perceptual loss than in typical transmissions. Both the proposed limit and foveation scheme shares the same background material: a model of image projection onto the retina; a model of cones distribution; and, subsequently, a proposed pointwise retina-based constraint called pixel efficiency. Quantitatively, the lattermost is globally processed to reveal the perceptual efficiency of a display. Analytical results indicate that in general the perceptual efficiency of displays are low for typical image sizes and viewing distances. Qualitatively, the pixel efficiency is used together with a lossy parameter to locally control the spatial resolution of a foveated image. Practical results show that proper use of the lossy parameter in the foveation filtering can increase the subjective quality of images.

Abstract

Miniaturization of chemical processes is becoming a must for green chemistry and sustainable industry processes, so technological research in this direction is well received. Continuous microreactor systems hold many potential benefits over batch reactors allowing: high surface-to-volume ratio, fine adjustment of chemical reaction residence times, small thermal inertia and fast changes in temperature. Advantages of multilayer green ceramics for microprocess applications include: LTCC substrate is chemically inert to most solvents, it has a high contact angle, presents low thermal coefficient of expansion, can withstand high operational temperatures and high internal pressures. For these reasons, LTCC-based microsystem technologies allow the implementation of different unitary operations for chemical process, making it an enabling technology for the miniaturization of chemical processes. In fact, recently LTCC microfluidic reactors have been used to produce micro and nanoparticles with excellent control of size distribution and morphology. The present work provides a report on the performance of a 3D LTCC flow focusing Microfluidic reactor designed to fabricate Nanoparticles using nano precipitation through an anti-solvent, with electric potential size tuning. We also implement an approach to nanoparticle production scale-out.

Abstract

Highly flexible structures (springs) can be found in many precise devices, such as small actuators of optical disc drive and mobile cameras. A good configuration design is crucial for correct operation of these devices. In this case, optimization techniques can be applied to design of these flexible structures, aiming to reduce development time and costs. Remarkably, the design of these structures turns out to be a challenge in topology optimization. Thus, in this work, a formulation for designing highly flexible structures by using topology optimization is investigated. The topology optimization problem is defined as minimization of the mean compliance subjected to material volume and perimeter constraints, combined with a projection technique. The material model is based on the traditional SIMP approach and the optimization problem is implemented by using COMSOL software and solved by using MMA algorithm. A well-known plane string case has been carried out to evaluate the potential of the proposed topology optimization formulation.

Abstract

Purpose: This study measured the maximum angulation between 2 implants allowed by the internal walls of the component in screw-retained multiple prostheses using rotational abutment-type components. Materials and Methods: Thirty specimens of 3 different brands (Conexao; Neodent; and SIN), consisting of titanium rotational abutments connected to external hexagon abutment analogs with standard platforms, were divided into 3 groups. The specimens were internally filled with polyester resin, screw retained, torque, and sectioned to assess the space existing between the internal wall of the rotational abutment component, edge, and vertex of the hexagon. The measurements were performed using 3-dimensional equipment. Results: When the implant hexagons were oriented edge-to-edge, groups 1, 2, and 3 presented 40.75, 45.00, and 31.89 degrees, respectively. Vertex-to-vertex hexagon orientation showed 9.79, 18.18, and 3.27 degrees for groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Conclusions: The maximum mean angulation in the mesio/distal direction between the 2 implants with hexagon-oriented vertex-to-vertex is 10.41 degrees, and hexagon-oriented edge-to-edge is 39.54 degrees. This study suggests guidelines for positioning external hexagon implants for interference-free screw-retained multiple prostheses using rotational abutment-type components.
