1. A Conceptual Approach to the -ING Construction: Aspects of Radiality and Subjectification
Abstract: The -ING construction has a number of uses in the English language, and teaching it to speakers of other languages poses some challenges, as learners tend to interpret the construction as a verbal one, in the progressive aspect, which is only one part of the picture. Bearing this in mind, we have developed a corpus-based research into the form-mean

2. Pioneering studies on monogenic central precocious puberty
ABSTRACT Pubertal timing in humans is determined by complex interactions including hormonal, metabolic, environmental, ethnic, and genetic factors. Central precocious puberty (CPP) is defined as the premature reactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, starting before the ages of 8 and 9 years in girls and boys, respectively; familial CPP is def

3. A sinusoidal equation as an alternative to classical growth functions to describe growth profiles in turkeys
ABSTRACT. Because of the relatively long growing cycle and the high cost of research into turkey production and nutrition, the potential benefits from modelling growth in this avian species are considerable. Though there are many studies aimed at evaluating animal growth models, the number of studies targeting growth models in turkeys is quite limited. In th

4. Wastewater infrastructure and the ecology and management of freshwater systems
Resumo Globalmente, os recursos de água doce são influenciados pelo aporte de energia, nutrientes e poluentes das águas residuais. Os gestores locais e os tomadores de decisão têm a tarefa de abordar as preocupações ecológicas e de saúde humana associadas ao envelhecimento e à infraestrutura obsoleta de sistemas de tratamento de esgoto, utilizando

5. Estrategia para la optimización de un compuesto de caucho con aceite de soja utilizando diseños de experimentos
ABSTRACT When a rubber component is made, is necessary to start from a “rubber compound” which may be composed of one or more polymers and various additives or fillers. The development of an elastomer mixture to produce a compound with a specific end-use is complicated in the field of rubber technology. Therefore, the successful development of a compound

6. Kinetics of Formation of Fe2B Layers on AISI S1 Steel
In the present work, the AISI S1 steel was pack-borided in the temperature range 1123-1273 K for 2- 8 h to form a compact layer of Fe2B at the material surface. A recent kinetic approach, based on the integral method, was proposed to estimate the boron diffusion coefficients in the Fe2B layers formed on AISI S1 steel in the temperature range 1123-1273 K. In

7. Multivariate Analysis of Erosivity Indices and Rainfall Physical Characteristics Associated with Rainfall Patterns in Rio de Janeiro
ABSTRACT The identification of areas with greater erosive potential is important for planning soil and water conservation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical characteristics of rainfall events in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and their interactions with rainfall patterns through multivariate statistical analysis. Rainfall depth,

8. Measurement uncertainty of dissolution test of acetaminophen immediate release tablets using Monte Carlo simulations
ABSTRACT Analytical results are widely used to assess batch-by-batch conformity, pharmaceutical equivalence, as well as in the development of drug products. Despite this, few papers describing the measurement uncertainty estimation associated with these results were found in the literature. Here, we described a simple procedure used for estimating measuremen

9. QSAR Study of the Inhibitors of the Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 1 and 2 using Bayesian Regularized Genetic Neural Networks: A Comparative Study
Linear and non-linear quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were presented for modeling and predicting anti-diabetic activities of a set of inhibitors of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 and 2 (ACC1 and ACC2). Different algorithms were utilized to choose the best variables among large numbers of descriptors and then these selected descriptors we

10. Understanding the ligamentum teres of the hip: a histological study
Objective: To perform a histological study describing the microstructure of the ligamentum teres of the hip, with special emphasis on the presence of nerve bundles. Our study aims to correlate the microstructure of the ligamentum teres with its postulated functions, allowing greater understanding of its role within the hip joint.Methods: Fresh specimens exci

12. The effects of weathering exposure on the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of high-density polyethylene and poly (vinyl chloride)
This paper presents results describing the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties (melt flow index - MFI and oxidative induction time - OIT) of high density polyethylene and poly (vinyl chloride) after weathering exposure (6, 12, 18, and 30 months). The materials exposed were geomembranes of two thicknesses: 1.0 and 2.0 mm (PVC) and 0.8 and 2.5 mm (HDP
