ANÁLISE DE ESTABILIDADE DE TALUDES PELO MÉTODO DE EQUILÍBRIO LIMITE E MÉTODO DO...

A avaliação da estabilidade de taludes pode recorrer a diversos métodos de análise determinísticos, tais como, os métodos de equilíbrio limite ou a análise de tensões e deformações, através do método dos elementos finitos ou outro método numérico. Os métodos de equilíbrio limite efetuam a análise do equilíbrio de uma massa potencialmente instável e fazem a comparação entre forças resistentes e as forças atuante...

Personal brand: How humanizing the brand is the key to a successful business.

Humanizing the brand is a fundamental strategy for organizations seeking to distinguish themselves in a competitive market. Adopting a more authentic, transparent and close-to- the-consumer approach allows brands to establish stronger and more reliable relationships with their audience.

Impacto do Treino dos Músculos Inspiratórios em Doentes Submetidos a Ventilação...

Contexto: A reabilitação dos músculos respiratórios é crucial na recuperação após ventilação mecânica invasiva (VMI) prolongada. Estudos mostram que o treino dos músculos inspiratórios (TMI) pode acelerar o desmame ventilatório mais eficientemente do que a reabilitação convencional, embora alguns estudos recentes sugiram impacto limitado. Este estudo observacional analisou o impacto do TMI no desmame ventilatór...

Toward optimal virtualization: An updated comparative analysis of Docker and LX...

Traditional hypervisor-assisted virtualization is a leading virtualization technology in data centers, providing cost savings (CapEx and OpEx), high availability, and disaster recovery. However, its inherent overhead may hinder performance and seems not scale or be flexible enough for certain applications, such as microservices, where deploying an application using a virtual machine is a longer and resource-int...

Participatory methodologies in the tourism planning process: the case of the to...

The paper aims to contribute to the reflection, analysis, and discussion of the importance of mobilization and active participation of territorial agents in the tourism planning process, particularly in low-density rural territories. For this purpose, we present the case study of the tourist destination of Vila de Rei, in the Centro region (Portugal), focused on the use of participatory methodologies in the tou...

Amination of polymeric braid structures to improve tendon healing: An experimen...

Several polymers are researched for tendon repair as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polylactic acid (PLA). These are biocompatible and useful in scaffolding repair though with minimal success due to long-term failure. There is a need to improve such scaffolds’ design and physical–chemical nature. This work concerns surface functionalization of polymeric braids (PET and PLA) that fulfill the high mechanica...

Assessing the stakeholders’ responses in public discussions of IPSASB standards...

This article assesses the factors that may explain stakeholders’ responses in public due processes carried out by the IPSASB. Seven ongoing projects were assessed, comprising 328 comment letters sent to IPSASB from 47 countries. The authors present a new approach which takes into account cultural values in public sector accounting and financial reporting. This article shows that factors that can explain stakeho...
