Understanding the dynamics of submarine density flows through direct observations from modern systems
No full textSubmarine density flows are the volumetrically most important process fortransporting sediment across our planet and form the largest sedimentaccumulations on Earth. Current models for turbidity currents are largely basedon experimental and numerical models, and inferences from deposits in thegeological record. This thesis provides a new understanding of the structure ofsubmarine density flows through the analysis of direct measurements ofsubmarine density currents near the seafloor. This is achieved by the analysis ofdatasets of density flows collected in two submarine channel systems: CongoSubmarine Canyon and a channel on the Black Sea Shelf. The analysis of newmeasurements of submarine density flows suggests a new structure forsubmarine density flows that contrasts with previous models. The new structureshows that the flow front is the fastest part of the flow that outruns the rest ofthe flow. The difference in velocities between the front and end of the flowresults in a flow stretching. This model contrasts with previous field observations of submarine flows collected in coarser sediment submarine channel systems.This thesis also analyses the cross-stream evolution of submarine density flowsthrough meandering submarine channel systems. This new model studies the evolution of the flow processes around meanders, and suggests differentscenarios of the flow structure based on the dominant process. This documentlinks the evolving structure of the flow around bends with the sedimentdistribution of the submarine channel systems, and reconciles discrepanciesamong earlier models. This thesis provides a better understanding of thecomplexity of the system formed by submarine density flows and the interactionof these flows with seafloor sediment and channel morphology.<br/

Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Endometrial CD16(+) and CD16(-) NK cell count in fertility and unexplained infertility
No full textProblem: Peripheral counts of CD16+ NK cells have been well characterized in reproductive failure. However, not enough case-control clinical studies have been conducted to establish normal or abnormal CD16+/- values in the endometrium. Method of Study: Peripheral and endometrial NK cell counts by FACS, IL-6 and VEGF cytokines levels by ELISA were characterized in fertile women and unexplained infertility patients with implantation failures (UI-IF) during implantation window. ROC and correlation analysis were performed. Results: ROC analysis revealed endometrial CD16+ NK cells, IL-6 and VEGF as good diagnostic parameters for unexplained infertility. Almost half of UI-FI patients showed increased total and CD16+ NK cell counts correlating with decreased levels of endometrial IL-6 and VEGF. No correlation was found with peripheral blood values. Conclusions: Increased CD16+ NK cells were associated to IL-6 and VEGF deficiency in a high proportion of UI-IF patients. Testing for these immunomarkers could be a potential tool in infertility diagnosis.Fil: Junovich, Gisela Yael. Halitus Instituto Medico; Argentina.

Imagens de Otto Maria Carpeaux: esboço de biografia
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, Florianópolis, 2015.Este esboço de biografia procura citar algumas imagens de Otto Maria Carpeaux: construções biográficas de naturezas múltiplas, elaboradas em contextos, por atores e sob condições igualmente díspares. Está constituído a partir de uma visão crítica da História, o que permite que ?outras imagens?, fragmentárias e não monumentais, também tenham espaço. Em diálogo com o princípio da montagem, este esboço apresenta-se em duas partes. Na primeira, Imagens possíveis, estão citadas as imagens elaboradas em vida e post mortem acerca do austríaco-brasileiro que nasceu em Viena em 1900, se exilou no Brasil em 1939 e morreu no Rio de Janeiro, em 1978. Na segunda, Montagens possíveis, apresentam-se duas possibilidades de exercício biográfico: pela leitura alegórica do documentário O velho e o Novo (Otto Maria Carpeaux), entendido como instrumento de intervenção no contexto ditatorial brasileiro e de uma reelaboração biográfica concernentes às suas experiências europeias; e pelo Caderno de imagens críticas, registro dos encontros em Carpeaux pelo meio de imagens críticas produzidas a partir da cesura do presente.Abstract : This biographical sketch attempts to quote some images of Otto Maria Carpeaux: various types of biographical constructions, carried out in different contexts by disparate authors under conditions just as distinct. It stems from a critical view of history, allowing for ?other images? fragmented and non-monumental ? to share the space.In dialogue with the montage principle, this sketch has two parts. The first, Possible Images, quotes the images produced during and after the life of the Austrian-Brazilian, who was born in Vienna in 1900, went to Brazil in exile in 1939 and died in Rio de Janeiro in 1978. The second part, Possible Montages, presents two possibilities of a biographical exercise: through the allegorical reading of documentary O Velho e o Novo (Otto Maria Carpeaux), understood as an instrument of intervention in the Brazilian dictatorship context and as a biographical retelling of the author?s European experiences; and through my Scrapbook of Critical Images, a record of the encounters in Carpeaux through critical images produced from the caesura of the present
Maria José ao encontro de Tchekov
No full text“A Carta da Corcunda para o Serralheiro” (“Letter from the Hunchback Girl to the Metalworker”), signed by Maria José, was first performed in a theatre show in 1988 (by actress-director Maria do Céu Guerra), two years before the typescript was published in book form for the first time by Teresa Rita Lopes. The evidence upon which this article is built is that it was the theatre that revealed the dramatic destination of this singular epistle of the only female heteronym that Fernando Pessoa invented, which was also the last heteronym to be created by the author. The dramatic construction of Maria José can be approximated to the character-building strategies in Anton Chekhov’s realist dramaturgy, in a way that differs from Pessoa’s other dramaturgical experiences. The analysis of Chekhov’s ascendancy over Stanislavski’s research, as well as the importance of Schopenhauer’s conception of the tragicomic, which is simultaneously projected onto Chekhov’s theatre and Maria José’s profile, are favourable lines of reading for this rapprochement between Pessoa and the Russian fiction writer and playwright. Pessoa’s readings of Chekhov’s texts (such as the play Uncle Vania and the short story “Vanka”) provide relevant data for assessing the magnitude of this encounter.“A Carta da Corcunda para o Serralheiro”, assinada por Maria José, começou por ser difundida num espectáculo de teatro em 1988 (pela actriz-encenadora Maria do Céu Guerra) dois anos antes de o dactiloscrito se ver publicado em livro, pela primeira vez, por Teresa Rita Lopes. Parte-se da evidência de ter sido o teatro a revelar a destinação dramática da epístola singular do único heterónimo mulher que Fernando Pessoa inventou, que terá sido também o último a ser criado pelo autor. A construção dramática de Maria José pode ser aproximada às estratégias de construção de personagem na dramaturgia realista de Anton Tchekov, de um modo que se distingue de outras experiências dramatúrgicas de Pessoa. A análise do ascendente de Tchekov sobre as pesquisas de Stanislavski, bem como a importância da concepção de tragicómico em Schopenhauer, que se projecta em simultâneo sobre o teatro de Tchekov e sobre o perfil de Maria José, são linhas de leitura propícias para esta aproximação entre Pessoa e o ficcionista e dramaturgo russo. As leituras de textos de Tchekov por parte de Pessoa (como o caso da peça Tio Vânia e o conto “Vanka”) fornecem dados relevantes para avaliar a magnitude deste encontro
