O propósito deste trabalho foi mensurar as dimensões dos arcos dentários de crianças com fissuras labiopalatinas, de 3 a 9 meses, antes das cirurgias primárias, e comparar com crianças sem fissura labiopalatina. A amostra foi composta de 223 crianças, divididas em grupos: sem deformidades craniofaciais (G1), fissura pré-forame incompleta (G2), fissura pré-forame completa (G3), fissura transforame unilateral (G4) e fissura transforame bilateral (5). Para avaliação, os arcos dentários superiores das crianças foram moldados com silicona de condensação. Os modelos passaram por um processo de digitalização, por meio de escâner 3D e as medidas utilizadas para a correlação entre os grupos foram realizadas diretamente nas imagens escaneadas. Nas imagens, foram determinados pontos de referência, necessários para a realização das medidas de avaliação. Os resultados mostraram diferença estatisticamente significativa na distância intercaninos (DIC) entre G1-G4 (p= 0,000), G1-G5 (p= 0,007), G2-G4 (p= 0,000), G2-G5 (p= 0,000), e G3-G4 (p= 0,008). Para distância intertuberosidades (DIT) foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre: G1-G4 (p= 0,000), G1-G5 (p= 0,000), G2-G4 (p= 0,000), G2-G5 (p= 0,000), G3-G4 (p= 0,009) e G3-G5 (p= 0,000). Para amplitude anterior da fissura unilateral (AAFuni), o G3 apresentou diferença estatisticamente significativa com relação ao G4 (p= 0,000) e para amplitude anterior da fissura esquerda (AAFe) e direita (AAFd) com relação ao G5 (p= 0,011 e p= 0,030). Para amplitude posterior da fissura (APF), houve diferença estatisticamente significativa entre G4 e G5 (p= 0,013). Com base nos resultados obtidos, foi possível constatar que as crianças com fissura labiopalatina apresentaram dimensões transversais dos arcos dentários maiores que as crianças sem fissura labiopalatina, de 3 a 9 meses, antes das cirurgias primárias. A DIC foi maior nas crianças com fissura transforame unilateral e a DIT foi maior nas crianças com fissura transforame bilateral em relação aos grupos estudados. Houve aumento significante da AAF e APF nos diferentes tipos de fissura com relação à severidade da fissura de lábio e/ou palato. / The purpose of this study was to measure the dimensions of the dental arches of 3-9 month children with cleft lip and palate, before the primary surgery, and compared them with children without cleft lip and palate. The sample consisted of 223 children, divided into groups: without craniofacial deformities (G1), unilateral cleft lip (G2), unilateral cleft lip and alveolus (G3), unilateral cleft lip and palate (G4) and bilateral cleft lip and palate (5). For evaluation, impressions of the upper dental arches of the children were performed with condensation silicone. The casts underwent a process of scanning through 3D scanner and the measurements used for the correlation among groups were executed directly on the scanned images. On the images, the landmarks required to perform the evaluation measurements were determined. The results showed statistically significant differences in intercanine distance (ICD) between G1 - G4 (p = 0.000), G1 - G5 (p = 0.007), G2 - G4 (p = 0.000), G2 - G5 (p = 0.000), and G3 - G4 (p = 0.008). For the posterior arch width (PAW), the following statistically significant differences were found: between G1 - G4 (p = 0.000), G1 - G5 (p = 0.000), G2 - G4 (p = 0.000), G2 - G5 (p = 0.000), G3 - G4 (p = 0.009), and G3 - G5 (p = 0.000). The unilateral anterior cleft width (UACW) exhibited statistically significant differences between G3 and G4 (p = 0.000); the left (LACW) and right anterior cleft width (RACW) showed differences between G3 and G5 (p = 0.011 and p = 0.030). For posterior cleft width (PCW), statistically significant differences between G4 and G5 (p = 0.013) were found. Based on these results, it was found that 3-9 month cleft lip and palate children had transverse dimensions of the dental arches higher than those without cleft lip and palate, before the primary surgeries. The ICD was higher in children with unilateral cleft lip and palate and PAW was higher in children with bilateral cleft lip and palate among the groups studied. A significant increase in the ACW and PCW of the different cleft types with respect to the severity of cleft lip and / or palate was found.

The Onion Creek Diapir is one of many salt domes proximal to the Uncompahgre thrust front of the ancestral rockies in the Paradox Basin. It is comprised of Paradox Formation evaporites and large blocks of Honaker Trail Formation carbonates that were deformed by loading of Permian Cutler Formation progradational alluvial to fluvial fans. The history of salt movement in the Onion Creek Diapir is recorded in the near-salt strata. Large salt bodies and their adjacent mini-basins evolve conforming to a complex relationship between salt withdrawal, creating localized accommodation, and sediment deposition. Migrating mini-basin depo-centers, thinned and folded strata, and spatial facies trends reveal the relative rates of diapirism and sedimentation. The study area outcrop, north of the diapir, is divided by significant stratigraphic horizons that help define depositional periods. Six measured sections in the study area reveal higher preservation rates of fine grained floodplain deposits, typically destroyed in alluvial environments, than at locations correlating to stratigraphic levels high in the outcrop suggesting a low accommodation environment evolving into higher accommodation where stacked channel complexes are preserved. Preserved slump folding at the base of the outcrop reveals that although some salt emergence occurred in the earliest depositional period it was not significant enough to preclude sediment deposition or to divert the Cutler fluvial network and destroy floodplain facies. A 3-D digital outcrop, modeled from photogrammetric data, illustrates the development of localized accommodation, attracting fluvial channel in a near-salt, tight axial syncline during the later depositional period. These evidences suggest a greater emergence of the diapir and likely diversion of the Cutler channel complexes.

The aim of this thesis is to create map of cave Výpustek surrounding enviroment. It is going to be complementary map documentation to existing map documentation made by the other students of VUT Brno. These documentations will be joined together and create one relief covering terain above the cave. The work began with building our own traverse and measuring detailed points. The result is topographical and hypsographical determination of the locality expressed numerically and topographically too. Another task was to measure and represent some profiles of main halls and passages of the cave. Intention is to connect underground space with the surface. Surveying network of points built previously inside the cave was used for measurements.

Critical infrastructures (CIs) distributing water, oil, gas, electricity, etc., to community residents and businesses, leverage cyber-physical systems (CPSs) to supervise and control the physical processes that these services entail. Over recent decades, these systems have moved to implement more modern IT-resembling solutions using Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems (SCADA) for increased reliability, scalability, and remote connectivity. This change exposes these highly critical systems to new threats and vulnerabilities. One approach to mitigate the risks faced by these systems is to perform analysis on digital representations in the form of digital models or digital shadows of the CPSs. However, this is not a trivial task in practice. These practical issues are explored in this design science research through the development of a guidance process to perform the data collection necessary to create a static digital model of a small-scale power grid CPS in Sweden. The results show that it is possible to gather information on the CPS components through the four approaches: SCADA system exports, documentation information, CLI scripting, and network scanning. While the artefact presented in this report demonstrates these results, challenges still remain such as a lack of SCADA export tools, reaching the SCADA network with scanning tools in a responsible manner, and accessing insights into the complete documentation held by the organisations. The researcher suggests these topics for future research directions.

The main subject of this diploma thesis is a study of a suggestion of environmentally friendly adjustments in the basin of Jičínka, working as preventive protection against floods. The study contains a research of the stated area using the method of CN-curves in the hydrological model DesQ-MaxQ and the principle of Wischmeier-Smith's equation, in modicication of ArcGIS programme. Based on the analysis, the work suggests an improvement of erosive and drain ratios and then an assessment of effectiveness of the protection. We get the assessment of the effectiveness by comparing the condition of the erosive wash and the surface drain before and after implementation of our measures. The work also sets its goal in calculating the financial returnability of the investition indicatively.

Ce mémoire traite comme objet le BIM (Bâti immobilier modélisé), ses incidences et ses perspectives juridiques dans le droit de la construction au Québec, il consiste à présenter une discussion méthodologique relative à ce sujet. Le BIM et la disposition de l’ensemble des informations sur une maquette numérique globale pourraient éventuellement élargir les hypothèses de mise en jeu des responsabilités des intervenants ainsi que le partage des risques. Pour le savoir, nous jugeons opportun de pouvoir dresser un panorama des risques et responsabilités des participants d’un projet de la construction pour permettre de tirer les changements ainsi que les conséquences juridiques de l’arrivée de ce processus dans l’industrie de la construction. Il est donc nécessaire d’analyser le cadre juridique actuel afin de déterminer l’applicabilité du régime de responsabilité civile aux intervenants BIM, au regard du droit de la construction et des dispositions du Code civil du Québec, par la même occasion, de conclure si un changement des dispositions législatives est nécessaire ou non. Ce travail traite également les difficultés juridiques inhérentes à l’utilisation des modèles BIM, notamment les risques technologiques et les questions des droits d’auteurs des éléments de la maquette numérique. Enfin, cette recherche dresse une présentation sur les outils juridiques à déployer et offre également une approche pragmatique des pratiques contractuelles actuelles du BIM au Québec en présentant les différents documents contractuels le concernant. / This study treats as an object the BIM (Building Information Modeling), its implications and its legal perspectives in the construction law in Quebec, it consists in presenting a methodological discussion relating to this subject. BIM and the provision of all the information on a global digital model could possibly broaden the hypotheses of bringing into play the responsibilities of the parties involved as well as risks sharing issues. To find out, we believe it is appropriate to be able to draw up an overview of the risks and responsibilities of the participants in a construction project to allow us to draw the changes as well as the legal consequences of the arrival of this process in the construction industry. It is therefore necessary to analyze the current legal provisions in order to determine the applicability of the civil liability regime to BIM stakeholders, with regard to construction law and the provisions of the Civil Code of Quebec, at the same time, to conclude whether a change in the legislative provisions is necessary or not. This research also deals with the legal difficulties inherent in the use of BIM models, in particular the technological risks, data ownership and associated proprietary issues of the elements of the digital model. Finally, this paper presents the legal tools to be deployed and also offers a pragmatic approach to the current contractual practices of BIM in Quebec by presenting the various contract documents.
