Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“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
Clogging potential evaluation of porous mixture surfaces used in permeable pavement systems
Service life of permeable pavements is strongly influenced by the infiltration capacity reduction produced due to the progressive clogging of the interconnected pores. This study focused on the effect of rainfall intensity and duration as well as the pavement slope, on the clogging and de-clogging processes of permeable pavements. For this purpose, a rainfall simulator was used in order to test porous asphalt and pervious concrete samples with void contents of 15, 20 and 25%. In order to simulate the permeability reduction in permeable pavements during their service life, test samples were clogged using three different sediment concentrations: 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 kg/m2. Three different rainfall intensities (50, 100 and 150 mm/h) and two different rainfall durations (15 and 30 min) were tested over the test samples. The infiltration capacity of the test samples was assessed in newly built conditions, and for each clogging scenario before and after rainfall simulations. Results showed that rainfall patterns as well as pavement slope significantly affect the infiltration capacity of clogged permeable materials, being higher after longer and intense rainfall events and for lower pavement slopes. Overall, PC mixture showed a best performance in terms of infiltration capacity and self-cleaning capabilities
Antioxidant Bioaccessibility of Cooked Gluten-Free Pasta Enriched with Tomato Pomace or Linseed Meal
Gluten-free products lack bioactive compounds, while vegetable wastes from food manufacturing are still rich in nutrients. This study compared the antioxidants of gluten-free pastas enriched with vegetable by-products: the control formulation (66.7% rice and 33.3% fava bean flours) was enriched with 10% or 15% of tomato waste (TO) or defatted linseed cake (LI). Carotenoids, tocols, phenolics, and antioxidant capacity (ABTS and FRAP) were determined in the cooked pasta as well as in the soluble and insoluble fractions after in vitro gastro-intestinal digestion. The cooked enriched pastas showed higher levels of carotenoids (1.36–1.53 vs. 1.02 mg/kg DM), except for the LI-added samples, tocols (8.83–21.70 vs. 7.01 mg/kg DM), free polyphenols (218.1–258.6 vs. 200.9 mg/kg DM), bound polyphenols (132.7–177.6 vs. 101.9 mg/kg DM), and antioxidant capacity. Cooking augmented the carotenoids and free polyphenols in the enriched pastas, tocols in LI pastas and bound flavonoids in TO pastas. After digestion, the recoveries for soluble and insoluble fractions were 53% and 35% for carotenoids, 52% and 43% for tocols, 109% for free phenolic acids, 97% for free flavonoids, 93% for bound phenolic acids, and 100% for bound flavonoids. Bioaccessibility was the highest for free phenolic compounds, whereas carotenoids and tocols were partially available
