TRADUÇÃO COMENTADA DO CONTO FOLCLÓRICO JAPONÊS “CHIKARA TAROU”, DE KEISUKE NISHIMOTO
No full textThis work consists of an annotated translation of the Japanese folklore’s
short story “Chikara Tarou”, by Japanese author Keisuke Nishimoto, from Japanese
language to Brazilian Portuguese language. The research aims to contribute to the
Japanese Literary Translation Studies through an analysis of linguistic and cultural
aspects presented in the source text, as well as its consequences in the target
culture and language, theoretically based on Venuti’s (2004) concepts of
foreignization and domestication. Furthermore, this monograph seeks to disseminate
the Mukashi-banashi literary genre and the short story, not yet translated in Brazil,
providing knowledge concerning the author, genre, Japanese culture. In addition, it is
as an attempt of deconstructing sexism presented in the short story through its
annotated translation.O presente trabalho consiste em uma tradução comentada do conto
folclórico japonês “Chikara Tarou”, versão do autor Keisuke Nishimoto, do japonês
para o português brasileiro. A pesquisa objetiva contribuir para os Estudos da
Tradução Literária Japonesa através de uma análise dos aspectos linguísticos e
culturais presentes no texto de partida e suas consequências na língua de chegada,
utilizando como base os conceitos de estrangeirização e domesticação de Venuti
(2004). Ademais, este trabalho também visa divulgar o gênero literário Mukashibanashi do conto, o qual ainda não possui tradução no Brasil, fornecendo
informações acerca do autor, do gênero e cultura japonesa, como também busca

Towards high-speed computational scattered light imaging by introducing compressed sensing for optimized illumination
No full textWe propose the application of Compressed Sensing to Computational Scattered Light Imaging to decrease measurement time and data storage. Computational Scattered Light Imaging (ComSLI) determines three-dimensional fiber orientations and crossings in biomedical tissues like brain tissue. Currently, conventional ComSLI is time-consuming and generates large data. Compressed Sensing reconstructs signals with fewer samples than required by the Shannon-Nyquist theorem with minimal perceptual loss, significantly reducing the number of measurements. We introduce an optimized illumination strategy for ComSLI based on the Discrete Cosine Transform and validate it by reconstructing characteristic scattering patterns in vervet brain tissue, thereby demonstrating the feasibility of Compressed Sensing in ComSLI.ImPhys/Menzel grou

No full textFunctional Nanowires Array Electrodeposited into Nano-porous Membrane Thin Films
No full textNi, Co, Fe and Co/Cu multilayered nanowires were electrodeposited into a nano-well template to synthesize novel functional ferromagnetic devices. Growth rate of Co/Co multilayered nanowires was around 40 nm·sec-1 and the cylindrical shape was precisely transferred from the nanochannels to the nanowires and the aspect ratio reached up to ca. 150. Magnetic hysteresis loops of Ni, Co and Fe nanowires with diameter 40 nm showed typical perpendicular magnetization behavior due to the uni-axial shape anisotropy and the coercive force reached up to around 1 kOe. 2% of anisotropic magnetoresistance effect was observed in Ni nanowires electrodeposited into anodized aluminum oxide template, while 20% of giant magnetoresistance effect was observed in Co/Cu multilayered nanowires.15th International Conference on Thin Films, ICTF 2011; Kyoto; Japan; 8 November 2011 ～ 11 November 2011Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 417(1), 012047; 2013conference pape
An Energy‐Tunable Dual Emission Mechanism of the Hybridized Local and Charge Transfer (HLCT) and the Excited State Conjugation Enhancement (ESCE)

An Energy‐Tunable Dual Emission Mechanism of the Hybridized Local and Charge Transfer (HLCT) and the Excited State Conjugation Enhancement (ESCE). Chemistry – A European Journal, e202404376 (2024), which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.202404376. This article may be used for non-commercialpurposes in accordance with the Wiley Self-ArchivingPolicy [https://authorservices.wiley.com/author-resources/Journal-Authors/licensing/self-archiving.html]Molecular design of dual-fluorescent probes requires precise adjustment of the energy levels of two excited states and the energy barrier between them. While the hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) state has been recently focused as an important excited state for high emission efficiency with a tunable energy level, a dual emission involving the HLCT state has been only achieved with the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) system. Here, a series of dual-fluorescent molecules involving an HLCT excited state with the excited-state conjugation enhancement (ESCE) motif is presented as the first case. The energy level of the HLCT state has been adjusted by changing substituents and solvents, separately from the ESCE energy level. The HLCT-ESCE molecular design with tunable fluorescence properties proposes a new strategy for the development of advanced fluorescent probes

Participants and methods: The sensory thresholds of 7-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were measured with four sine-wave electrostimulation frequencies (5, 50, 250, and 2,000 Hz) before and after applying 2-minute vibration to the plantar side of the foot in mice. In human participants (16 males and 16 females; mean age, 21.0±0.8 years), the sensory threshold was measured at 50 Hz before and after applying 2-minute and 5-minute vibrations to the dorsal side of the foot. Results: Application of a 2-minute vibration at either the ipsilateral or contralateral side modulated the sensory thresholds elicited by a 5- or 50-Hz right electrostimulation in mice. In human participants, application of a 5-minute vibration at either the ipsilateral or contralateral side modulated the sensory threshold elicited by 50-Hz right electrostimulation, but had no effect on local skin temperature. These results suggest that the right side of pain-related Aδ fibers (50 Hz) or C fibers (5 Hz) was modulated by the localized ipsilateral or contralateral side of vibratory stimuli, respectively, in mice and humans. Conclusion: The ability of contralateral vibration to modify the right sensory thresholds suggests possible involvement of the central nervous system in vibratory modulation.
