The paper investigates mixed-mode fatigue crack growth in ductile polyurethane adhesives, emphasizing mode decoupling to distinguish the impact of each loading component on propagation. It also explores temperature sensitivity rates for mode. Individual scrutiny role tests is accompanied by an analysis fracture surfaces clarify failure mechanisms. findings indicate differential ambient between I and II components a mixed test. Notably, response exhibited higher than tested polyurethanes....
The accurate thermal performance assessment of building components is critical for improving energy efficiency in buildings, mainly as space climatization accounts a large percentage consumption. literature review points out multiple parameters that influence the measurement U-value using HFM method. However, most these studies are focused on situ tests and little information exists variability results hot box method to assess resistance. According EN 1934, baffle must be positioned between...
The existing literature primarily explores fracture energy concerning test rate. However, for numerical simulations and bonded joint design, understanding the strain rate sensitivity is key, not speed. Even at a constant speed in tests, adhesive varies during crack propagation, complicating analysis. current study aims to comprehend of energy, as opposed loading two different polyurethane adhesives subjected mode I conditions. experimentally examines variations under rates investigates how...
Introduccion y objetivos: Pocos son los estudios que evaluan la autopercepcion del estigma social en las personas padecen esquizofrenia. El objetivo presente estudio consiste analizar percepcion sobre esquizofrenia tienen padecen. Material metodos: Se realizaron dos sesiones cuatro grupos focales de con estaban siendo atendidas servicios rehabilitacion psicosocial Parc Sanitari Sant Joan Deu. A partir un guion establecido se valoraron total 11 areas abordadas grupos. Resultados: Las...
The investigation of the behaviour adhesive joints under high strain rates is an active area research, primarily due to widespread use adhesives in various industries, including automotive manufacturing. Understanding how perform when subjected crucial for designing vehicle structures. Additionally, it particularly important comprehend exposed elevated temperatures. Therefore, this study aims analyse impact rate and temperature on mixed-mode fracture characteristics a polyurethane adhesive....
This study focuses on the prediction of fracture mechanics behaviour a highly flexible adhesive (with tensile elongation 90%), since this type is becoming widely used in automotive structures due to their high at break and damping capacity. Despite extensive applications, understanding under varying loading rates temperatures remains limited literature. In addition, current models are also unable accurately predict complex failure mechanism that such bonded joints have. aims determine...
Patient safety has not been systematically included as a priority in the organization of care Portuguese primary health units. The concept patient is new and includes group activities designed to avoid adverse events care. These include harm patients, near misses, incidents, accidents errors. Adverse are caused by multiple factors can be prevented. In order do that, we need know how anticipate prevent these events. When they occur, must willing report them, discuss share our experiences with...

The aim of this paper is to study the response a polyurethane-based adhesive when subjected different loading conditions. To achieve this, double cantilever beam (DCB) and dogbone specimens were manufactured, tensile strength, fracture fatigue tests performed. results revealed strength 14.5 MPa an elastic modulus 0.27 GPa for studied polyurethane adhesive. analysis showed that crack growth starts stabilize after 20% test done, used more suitable static conditions than cyclic conditions,...

Study design: Cross-sectional Setting: Primary health units, West Porto, Portugal. Participants: Family physicians. Methods: Data was collected SIARS© database, including all electronic prescriptions issued 2009. Variables analyzed related physician (gender, age, number of patients weighted...
Objectives: To analyze the causes of death and factors associated with patients from one family practice. Type study: Descriptive Location: USF Horizonte, Matosinhos, Portugal Population: Patients registered doctor between 2000 2007. Methods: The data were abstracted clinic records using Piloto 32®, SAM® SAPE® electronic medical record systems. Socio-demographic variables related to analyzed an Excel spreadsheet. Results: Over eight year period, 106 deaths recorded giving a mortality rate...
The Closing Conference of the 27 National Meeting General Practice had reflection Dr. Maria José Ribas, on what is expected to be general practice and GPs. Answering three questions: "How do we want our family doctor in future" In that context will work What challenges changes needed next decade probably following We traveled by responses a child 7 years various doctors. fate common desire have service available, competent, understand accompany individual their size bio-psycho-social,...
Este encontro, o primeiro de outros que se pretendem regulares, teve por fim divulgar um conjunto objectivos e iniciativas para ano em curso debater a vida futura da Revista.
