Esses compostos substituem outros que são ambientalmente mais nocivos, como é o caso do chumbo tetraetila. No Brasil, o oxigenado empregado é o etanol anidro, usado em teores que variam de 20% e 25%. Nos últimos anos foi iniciada a comercialização de veículos equipados com motores projetados para funcionar com misturas de gasolina C e álcool hidratado em qualquer proporção, o flex fuel. Com o objetivo de contribuir para melhor compreender as propriedades do flex fuel, neste trabalho foram medidos dados de pressão de vapor reid na temperatura de 37,8°C, curvas de destilação e massa específica das misturas de gasolina A e etanol anidro, gasolina C (20% e 25%) e etanol hidratado em vários teores (0 a 100%). O método utilizado para a medição da pressão de vapor da gasolina baseia-se nos métodos ASTM D 5191 e ASTM D 6378. Os resultados mostram que a presença do etanol e da água presente no álcool hidratado afetam fortemente a volatilidade do flex fuel em relação à gasolina A. Com uma abordagem do equilíbrio líquido-vapor, considerando o flex fuel como uma mistura pseudoternária gasolina A/etanol/água, os dados foram correlacionados pelo modelo NRTL. O desvio médio obtido foi inferior 0,30 ao desvio padrão de 1,5 kPa esperado nas medidas

Due to reduced reproductive tolerance, current Roundup Ready cotton only allows for over-the-top glyphosate applications through the fourth leaf stage of development. To combat this issue, Roundup Ready Flex cotton was introduced in 2006, offering both vegetative and reproductive tissue tolerance to glyphosate. Roundup Ready Flex cotton offers a wider window of application timing, without risk of plant injury. The primary objectives of this research were to test Roundup Ready Flex cotton against current Roundup Ready cotton technology at various application rates and timings and to test various elite varieties of Roundup Ready Flex cotton for glyphosate tolerance. Roundup Ready Flex cotton tolerance was unaffected by application rates or timings. Roundup Ready Flex cotton varieties were unaffected by glyphosate applications. Roundup Ready Flex cotton exhibits both vegetative and reproductive tolerance to glyphosate and is an effective alternative to current Roundup Ready cotton cropping systems.

The Fukushima Daiichi accident prompted the nuclear community to find a new solution to reduce the risky situations in nuclear power plants (NPPs) due to beyond-design-basis external events (BDBEEs). An implementation guide for diverse and flexible coping strategies (FLEX) has been presented by Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) to manage the challenge of BDBEEs and to enhance reactor safety against extended station blackout (SBO). To assess the effectiveness of FLEX strategies, probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) methods can be used to calculate the reliability of such systems. Due to the uniqueness of FLEX systems, these systems can potentially carry dependencies among components not commonly modeled in NPPs. Therefore, a suitable method is needed to analyze the reliability of FLEX systems in nuclear reactors. This thesis investigates the effectiveness and applicability of Bayesian networks (BNs) and Discrete-Time Bayesian Networks (DTBNs) in the reliability analysis of FLEX equipment that is utilized to reduce the risk in nuclear power plants. To this end, the thesis compares BNs with two other reliability assessment methods: Fault Tree (FT) and Markov chain (MC). Also, it is shown that these two methods can be transformed into BN to perform the reliability analysis of FLEX systems. The comparison of the three reliability methods is shown and discussed in three different applications. The results show that BNs are not only a powerful method in modeling FLEX strategies, but it is also an effective technique to perform reliability analysis of FLEX equipment in nuclear power plants. / Master of Science / Some external events like earthquakes, flooding, and severe wind, may cause damage to the nuclear reactors. To reduce the consequences of these damages, the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) has proposed mitigating strategies known as FLEX (Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies). After the implementation of FLEX in nuclear power plants, we need to analyze the failure or success probability of these engineering systems through one of the existing methods. However, the existing methods are limited in analyzing the dependencies among components in complex systems. Bayesian networks (BNs) are a graphical and quantitative technique that is utilized to model dependency among events. This thesis shows the effectiveness and applicability of BNs in the reliability analysis of FLEX strategies by comparing it with two other reliability analysis tools, known as Fault Tree Analysis and Markov Chain. According to the reliability analysis results, BN is a powerful and promising method in modeling and analyzing FLEX strategies.

This research developed a novel, non-wire bond semiconductor interconnect technology, termed the Dimple Array interconnect (DAI), with significantly improved electrical, thermal and mechanical characteristics for power electronics applications. In the DAI structure, electrical connections onto the devices are achieved by solder bumps formed between the silicon device and arrays of dimples stamped on a metal sheet flex. This research first presents the design of the materials, electrical and thermal performance, reliability, and the fabrication process of the DAI. It was found that due to the use of solder material, the current handling capability and thermal management of Dimple Array interconnected devices are significantly better than those using wire bonds. In addition, the shorter and wider solder joints reduce parasitics, which is a serious problem in wire bond interconnects. The proposed fabrication process of the DAI is simpler than other developing integrated power packaging technologies, such as flip chip and deposited metallization integration. DAI was successfully demonstrated in a half-bridge power electronics module with much improved electrical characteristics. The study then focuses on the thermomechanical reliability of Dimple Array packages as compared to conventional controlled collapse bonding (CCB) flip chip packages. Experimental approaches, such as power cycling and temperature cycling tests, and numerical simulation with the help of finite element analysis (FEA) were used. The thermal cycling test shows that dimple solder joints display an eightfold reliability improvement over the conventional CCB solder joints. The power cycling test showed that the measured forward voltage can not reliably reflect the integrity of the solder joint interconnect. However, from metallographic cross-section images of these samples, it was concluded that the DAI solder joints are more reliable than the CCB solder joints under power cycling conditions. FEA results showed excellent correlation with experiments in predicting that the Dimple Array solder joints are more fatigue-resistant due to a reduced stress/strain concentration. Furthermore, failure mechanisms were explored using the mapped stress/strain distribution within the models. It was found that the CCB solder joint has a highly localized strain concentration at the device/solder interface, while strains are more uniformly distributed over the whole Dimple Array solder joint. / Ph.

[pt] Este trabalho investiga vestígios de efeitos geracionais na escolha do etanol como combustível para carro. Há evidências de que as políticas de incentivo aos programas de diversificação da matriz energética influenciaram os hábitos de consumo. Apesar do baixo envolvimento do consumidor na compra de commodities, mas tendo em conta fatos como a crise do petróleo, o Proálcool, o advento dos motores a álcool e flex fuel, este estudo investiga se há algum efeito geracional na preferência por etanol em detrimento da gasolina como combustível. O estudo faz uso de um questionário, aplicado somente para consumidores que tomam decisões de abastecimento de carros tipo flex. A amostra inclui consumidores de ampla faixa etária, de acordo com as necessidades de cobrir diferentes possibilidades de efeitos geracionais. Os resultados apontam para alguns indícios, particularmente para preocupações ambientais e envolvimento com o carro. / [en] This research investigates traces of generational effects in choice of ethanol as a car fuel.

The results point to some evidence, particularly for environmental concerns and car involvement.

La surdité de perception est généralement la conséquence de la mort des cellules ciliées et de la dégénérescence supplémentaire des innervations afférentes induite par une absence de stimulation. Les indications de l’implant cochléaire se sont élargies en direction des patients sourds qui présentent un reliquat d’audition exploitable dans les fréquences graves. La persistance d’un reliquat auditif suffisant après l’intervention permet parfois une stimulation électrique acoustique, amplifiée acoustique sur les fréquences graves préservées, et électrique sur les fréquences aiguës. Actuellement, plusieurs protocoles de préservation de l’audition sont en investigation. Chaque protocole vise à appliquer des procédures qui minimisent les deux mécanismes du traumatisme, à savoir trauma immédiat et trauma différé. En particulier, une insertion atraumatique du porte-électrode (Flex EAS et Flex Soft ; Med-El) a été proposée pour minimiser le traumatisme chirurgical intracochléaire. L’application local et concomitante de médicament devrait améliorer la tolérance du tissu et donc réduire les dommages intracochléaire au niveau cellulaire. Un cathéter (Med-El) intra cochléaire pour la délivrance de médicaments intracochléaire a été développé, destiné à l’utilisation d’agents pharmacologiques in situ avant l'insertion du porte-électrode. Les propriétés mécaniques de ce cathéter n’induit pas de traumatisme dans la cochlée. Une insertion séquentielle de cathéter et de porte-électrodes est réalisable et souvent atraumatique / Sensorineural deafness is generaly the result of hair cell death and additional degeneration of afferent innervation. In recent years the candidacy criteria for cochlear implantation have been expanding, and now include patients with severe to profound high-frequency hearing loss along with mild to moderate low-frequency loss. The single most important prerequisite for providing both electric and acoustic stimulation in the same ear is the preservation of acoustic hearing following the surgical procedure. Currently, several hearing preservation protocols are under investigation. Each protocol attempts to implement procedures that minimize both immediate and delayed mechanisms. Specifically, atraumatic approaches and electrode insertions (Flex EAS and Flex Soft) have been proposed that aim at minimizing the surgical aspect of intracochlear trauma. The concomitant application local of drugs should enhance tissue tolerability and thus reduce intracochlear damage on a cellular level. Acute and topical, intracochlear drug delivery prior to electrode array insertion with a disposable single-use catheter (Med-El) has been evaluated and developed. The flexible properties of this catheter are enough to be inserted without trauma in the cochlea. Sequential insertion of intracochlear catheters and electrode arrays is feasible and often atraumatic

To find competencies on a workplace with flex office structure. Companies today, 2012 are facing new opportunities and challenges. Information technology develops, competition is bigger today than ever, increased environmental requirements will be added and new patterns of life and values are occurring. This means that people who work in offices feel strong pressure of conversion, which is something that people experience differently. Therefore it is essential how the working environment is designed in an office. Working in an office means a lot of information processing and we can see large changes taking place. The ability to work efficiently, flexible and to be able to lead and plan a company’s resources efficient is essential. The flex office was developed in the beginning of 1992 and was meant to be an office independent of space and time, and an office where all information and working material is gathered in a common database. At a flex office there are no given working places instead the employees chooses their working station for the day. A problem for the employees in flex office environment is to find the competencies they need. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a design proposal that solves the customer's information design problem in finding competencies at the workplace. Theoretical data has been gathered through studies of literature. Empirical data has been gathered through interviews, observation and a questionnaire. These data have then formed the basis for the design proposal which is created with help from Michanek and Breilers design model. To find the competencies, different working environments have been created and also a workplace location system. The design proposal divides the working environment in three different activity environments. These are made to help form the workplace location system; in order to include the needs from the target group as well as it gives the opportunities to find the working competencies through good information design. The workplace location system gives the employee the opportunity to find other competencies at the office by explicit showing the status and localization of the employee.
