Os benefícios da prática regular de atividade física no processo de envelhecimento by Arestides Pereira da Silva Júnior, Marília Velardi

“…Foi constatado que os principais benefícios da prática regular de atividade física para o idoso são relativos à: prevenção de doenças; manutenção ou melhoria da capacidade funcional e das capacidades físicas; melhora dos níveis de aptidão física; auxílio no controle do peso corporal; auxílio no desenvolvimento e manutenção dos ossos, músculos e articulações saudáveis; manutenção da força muscular e do equilíbrio, dando-lhes mobilidade e reduzindo as quedas; proporciona maior socialização; promove o bem-estar psicológico e a autoestima, além de outros de ordem subjetiva. Além disso, muitos idosos encontram na atividade física uma nova motivação para viver, tendo em vista que o envelhecimento também é entendido como um período de desenvolvimento, desafios e possibilidades. …”

Assessment of the Efficiency of Thermal Waste Regeneration in the Blown Impassable Channels of Heating Mains by V. A. Sednin, T. V. Bubyr

“…The energy efficiency of heat utilization dissipated by mains water pipelines as well as ground cooling in impassable heating mains channels was investigated by intensifying their ventilation and using heat pump equipment at the end points of the channels for heating mains water, depending on the geometric characteristics of the heating mains section, air temperature, soil and mains water installations at central heating points or directly at heat sources. …”

Assessing the salinization mechanisms of coastal brackish springs by Sanz, Esteban, Carrera, Jesús, Ayora, Carlos, Barón, Alfredo, González, Concha

“…They allow us to show that the spring salinity is mostly controlled by the weight of the water column flowing towards the spring mouth (for low flow rates) and by energy dissipation (for high flow rates). When concentration and flow rate data are available, it is possible to characterize: (1) the resistance of the upwards conduit from the response at high flow rate; (2) the depth of the branching point from the concentration at low discharges; and (3) the hydraulic resistance of the seawater conduit from the slope of concentration vs. flow rate at low spring discharges. …”

Effect of Water Content on the Impact Propensity of White Sandstone by Jiankui Bai, Chuanming Li, Ruimin Feng, Nan Liu, Xiang Gao, Zhengrong Zhang, Bochao Nie

“…As a result, the total energy, elastic energy, and dissipative energy of the rock are reduced. The accumulated AE energy also decreases with the increase of the water content, indicating that rocks with higher water content gather less elastic energy before damage and accumulate less energy when deformation damage occurs. (3) The impact energy index and elastic energy index are negatively correlated with the water content. …”

Research on the Impact of Different Force Directions on the Mechanical Properties and Damage Evolution Law of Sandstone with Different Hole Diameters by Fukun Xiao, Renhe Li, Le Xing

“…Third, as obtained by comparing and analyzing the energy conversion of the rock with different diameters of the hole, the energy conversion in the rock is changed due to the existence of holes, and the increase in hole diameter causes a gradual decrease in the elastic energy stored in the rock and gradual increase in the dissipated energy. And by comparing the energy conversion of the rock with different positions of the hole, it is acquired that the elastic energy conversion ratio of the rock with the vertical hole is higher than that of the rock with the horizontal hole. …”
