Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Use of Biosensors to Analyse a Soldier’s Stress LevelJosé Miguel Martinho Silva, Ricardo A. Marques Lameirinhas et al.Currently and increasingly, biosensors are present in our daily lives, even if tendentiously and imperceptibly. As such and given their importance, the scientific community is clearly interested in making progress in this research field. This study is part of the study of biosensors using pre-gelled electrodes and was focused on the analysis of the ability to extract information on the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 1 Mar 2024 · 4,982 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComparative Study of Properties of Biopolymers from Corn Starch with Addition of Microalgae Spirulina platensisJúllia Koury Abreu, Loraynne Coelho Pereira, José Izaquiel Santos da SilvaThe discovery of the environmental impacts caused by petroleum-based polymers has led to the use of natural polymers gaining more and more space. Naturally occurring polymers, also known as biopolymers, are chemical compounds produced by living things or raw materials from renewable energy sources. Their main advantage is decomposition, while polymers from fossil and non-renewable energies can take hundreds of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2023 · 6,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStudy of the Thermodynamic Equilibrium of Fragrance Mixtures, Limonene, Linalool and Geraniol, using the Unifac and Cosmo-Sac Models and the Estimation of their Combined Properties in Binary, Ternary and Quaternary MixturesLavínia Mota Cristianismo Silva, José Izaquiel Santos da Silva, Rogério Alexandre Alves de Melo, Edilailsa Januário de MeloPerfume is a non-ideal complex mixture of chemicals originating from the extraction of essential oils and these oils are volatile components extracted from plants, some animals, or even synthesized. For this reason, to compose a fragrance, there are countless possibilities to combine one element and another, which makes the process slow and expensive. Therefore, in this study, we will combine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2022 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSimulation of Production of Anhydrous Bioethanol using Glycerol and 1-Butyl-3-Methylimidazolyl-Tetrafluoroborate in the Aspen Plus SimulatorJosé Izaquiel Santos da Silva, Lílian da Silva Félix, Mariana Martins Vieira et al.Biofuels are present in the global scenario as an energy source derived from organic biomass, representing an economic and environmental alternative. They are a renewable source of energy with low rates of pollutants emissions and, consequently, less carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. The obtaining of bioethanol is originated from a fermentation process, in which a multi-component mix is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 16 Jun 2021 · 7,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInfluence of Different Freezing Curves on the Acrosome Integrity of Male Goat Sperm CellsSofia Alexandra Fagundes Lopes, Henrique José Duarte Rosa, António Chaveiro, Fernando Moreira da SilvaThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of three different freezing curves on male goat’s sperm viability and acrosome integrity. Semen was collected on three adult male goats in February (Azores, Portugal, latitude 38°39′N) using an artificial vagina and a female with induced heat. Three collection sessions were spaced of approximately 5 days. The study followed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 19 Feb 2021 · 6,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffect of Different Cycles of Thermal Fatigue in Steel Metallurgical Aspects ASTM SA-516 Grade 60Eder Hermes Bicharra, Jorge Luis Braz Medeiros, Luciano Volcanoglo Biehl et al.The ASTM SA-516 steel has applications in compact steam boilers of low and medium temperature and pressure. Deterioration can show when exposed to high temperatures due to fuel gases burning. Failures detected by inspections done in a frequency required by standard on the boilers. Among the main failure mechanisms found in materials used in boilers, creep, corrosion, when subjected to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEnhancing Brazilian Portuguese Textual Entailment Recognition with a Hybrid ApproachAllan de Barcelos Silva, Sandro José RigoPrevious work on textual entailment has not fully exploited aspects of deep linguistic relations, which have been shown as containing important information for entailment identification. In this study, we present a new method to compute semantic textual similarity between two sentences. Our proposal relies on the integration of a set of deep linguistic relations, lexical aspects and distributed representational resources. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 12 Jul 2018 · 8,934 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModern Metaheuristic with Multi-Objective Formulation for the Variable Selection ProblemLauro Cassio Martins de Paula, Anderson da Silva Soares, Telma Woerle Soares et al.The development of efficient algorithms for variable selection becomes important to deal with large and complex datasets. Most works in quantitative chemical analysis have used Genetic Algorithms (GAs) as a reference method to select variables. On the other hand, new advances in metaheuristic techniques provide novel possibilities in this task Moreover, the application of Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) may significantly contribute … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 20 Nov 2017 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptical and Structure Analysis of ZnO:Al FilmNeilo Marcos Trindade, Michel Chaves, José Roberto Ribeiro Bortoleto et al.ZnO and ZnO:Al are wide-bandgap semiconductors which have many applications, mainly as transparent conducting films. Thin films of these compounds were deposited onto glass and silicon substrates by RF magnetron sputtering for the investigation of structural and optical characteristics. The XRD results show that the films present wurtzite structure. The formation of a polycrystalline film having a preferential crystallographic orientation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPromising Effects of Beta-Glucans on Metabolism and on the Immune Responses: Review ArticleViviam de Oliveira Silva, Natália Oliveira de Moura, Larissa Jahnel Rodrigues de Oliveira et al.A public health issue, Diabetes mellitus, affects millions of people around the globe. Ingestion of foods with a low glycemic index - fiber-rich meals-such as beta-glucans, is increasing as an important alternative for diabetes control. These compounds act reducing parameters such as blood glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, by decreasing the absorption of glucose and lipids by enterocytes and eventually promote … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2017 · 12,689 accessesView PDFCite
