Extraction of S- and N-Compounds from the Mixture of Hydrocarbons by Ionic Liquids as Selective Solvents by Beata Gabrić, Aleksandra Sander, Marina Cvjetko Bubalo, Dejan Macut

“…Recent approaches employ different ionic liquids as selective solvents, due to their general immiscibility with gasoline and diesel, negligible vapor pressure, and high selectivity to sulfur- and nitrogen-containing compounds. For that reason, five imidazolium-based ionic liquids and one pyridinium-based ionic liquid were selected for extraction of thiophene, dibenzothiophene, and pyridine from two model solutions. …”

Trabalho, Cultura e produção cultural: notas para uma sociologia do trabalho com arte e cultura no Brasil by André Grillo

“…In order to analyze cultural production in the so-called “new world of work”, and the category of cultural producer in contemporary Brazil, I seek to develop a sociology of work with art and culture, making use of the theoretical framework of the sociology of work based on the analysis of André Gorz’s and Boltanki and Chiapello on contemporary changes in the world of work (and the influence of the counterculture in this process), complementing them with the sociology of work with art and culture of Menger and Becker. For that reason, I begin with the discussion about the so-called “new world of work” from the perspectives of the evolution of Gorz’s thought and Boltanski and Chiapello’s classic The New Spirit of Capitalism. …”

Shear Strength of Compacted Clays as Affected by Mineral Content and Wet-Dry Cycles by Frederick Nai Charkley, Kunyong Zhang, Guoxiong Mei

“…Recently, it has been observed that sudden slope failures of most clay slopes occur in regions pronounced with repeated rainfall and sunny climate. The reason for this is still unclear. Examining the effect of clay minerals and drastic weather changes on shear strength will be useful in predicting the performance of structures built in such soils and to take precautionary measures to improve the properties before failure. …”

Wavelets-Computational Aspects of Sterian Realistic Approach to Uncertainty Principle in High Energy Physics: A Transient Approach by Cristian Toma

“…However, such aspects regarding the use of conjugate Fourier spaces can be also noticed in quantum field theory, where the position representation of a quantum wave is replaced by momentum representation before computing the interaction in a certain point of space, at a certain moment of time. For this reason, certain properties regarding the switch from one representation to another in these conjugate Fourier spaces should be established. …”

Doppler Impedance Changes at the Fetal Brain Vessels in a Pregnancy Affected with a Multiple Combination of Uteroplacental Anomalies by José Morales-Roselló, Núria Peralta Llorens

“…This cerebral low-impedance state, usually found before labor, and considered an adaptive mechanism developed to protect the fetus at term from labor asphyxia, was present for an unknown reason at 20 weeks. After the patient was treated with vaginal progesterone, the cervix shortening improved and markedly, at the same time, the cerebral vascular resistances increased and maintained an adequate for gestational age impedance until delivery at 34 weeks. …”

Thickness Dependent on Photocatalytic Activity of Hematite Thin Films by Yen-Hua Chen, Kuo-Jui Tu

“…This is because the hematite film with a thicker thickness has a rougher surface, providing more reaction sites for photocatalysis. Another reason is a lower band gap of a hematite film would generate more electron-hole pairs under visible-light illumination to enhance photocatalytic efficiency. …”

Les enjeux organisationnels de la reprise du travail de salariés après une longue absence by Célia Quériaud, Bernard Dugué, Johann Petit

“…Though many studies have been conducted about return-to-work following a health problem (accident or illness), the particular aim of this study was to identify the key factors needed to facilitate return-to-work whatever the reason for the absence. The study analysis focused on 16 cases of return-to-work after an absence of more than three months.We decided to consider return-to-work as a process beginning before the moment of the absence and continuing after the moment when the employee returned to the workplace. …”

Examples of absence include in-situ memorial structures that literally provide the space for negation, sites of religious veneration that render the place of nothingness, and spontaneous memorials that serve as the location for being (pour-soi, en-soi, and pour-autrui). …”
