Numerical Simulation Study on the Air/Water Counter- current Flow Limitation in Nuclear Reactors
After a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) in a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR), the temperature of the fuel elements cladding increases dramatically due to the heat produced by the fission products decay, which is not adequately removed by the vapor ...

O objetivo deste artigo é investigar a origem de uma controvérsia sobre as águas minerais: elas serão um recurso hídrico ou um recurso mineral que deve permanecer submetido ao Código de Mineração brasileiro? Para que seja possível transitar pelos subterrâneos dessa querela, foi preciso realizar uma prospecção.

Hydrophysical Database for Brazilian Soils (HYBRAS) and Pedotransfer Functions for Water Retention
Core Ideas We propose a Hydrophysical Database for Brazilian Soils (HYBRAS). Data in HYBRAS comprise 445 soil profiles, with 1075 samples of Brazilian soils. We compared the accuracy of water retention estimates based on climate‐based PTFs. In general, the Brazilian PTFs performed better than the temperate models for HYBRAS.

Molecular Characterization of TP53 Gene in Human Populations Exposed to Low‐Dose Ionizing Radiation
Ionizing radiation, such as that emitted by uranium, may cause mutations and consequently lead to neoplasia in human cells. The TP53 gene acts to maintain genomic integrity and constitutes an important biomarker of susceptibility. The present study investigated the main alterations observed in exons 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 of the TP53 gene and adjacent ...

Estimating recharge rates with baseflow separation in the Ibicuí Watershed (South America)
This study aims to estimate the groundwater recharge rates in the Ibicuí Watershed, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, using baseflow separation method. The watershed’s main aquifer is the Guarani Aquifer System, in its confined areas (West) and outcrop (

Lineações minerais em porfiroblastos
The study of mineral lineations has been of fundamental importance in the comprehension of tectonic evolution in orogenetic belts. However, in polydeformated areas, while the newest lineation’s orientation can be found, the oldest lineations tend to be obliterated by the newest deformation events.
