1. Numerical simulation of anisotropic polymeric foams
This paper shows in detail the modelling of anisotropic polymeric foam under compression and tension loadings, including discussions on isotropic material models and the entire procedure to calibrate the parameters involved. First, specimens of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) foam were investigated through experimental analyses in order to understand the mechanic

2. Study of an anisotropic polymeric cellular material under compression loading
This paper emphasizes the influence of micro mechanisms of failure of a cellular material on its phenomenological response. Most of the applications of cellular materials comprise a compression loading. Thus, the study focuses on the influence of the anisotropy in the mechanical behavior of cellular material under cyclic compression loadings. For this study,

3. Fabricación y caracterización de espumas de alúmina para aplicación en quemadores porosos radiantes
In radiant porous burners, the heat source requires a solid porous matrix where the combustion reaction takes place, in which the heat transfer is performed more efficiently. This work is based on a study of the alumina suspension rheology, where parameters as viscosity and tixotropy were the guide to select the appropriate formulation for the ceramic foam f

4. Modelos de material para espumas poliméricas aplicadas a estruturas aeronáuticas em material compósito sanduíche / Material models for polymeric foams applied to aircraft structures in sandwich composite materials
Estruturas aeronáuticas são em sua grande parte fabricadas em material compósito para que sejam atendidas as especificações de projeto. Entre essas estruturas destaca-se a estrutura sanduíche. A utilização desse tipo de estrutura requer estudos extensos em novos materiais, bem como na aplicação dos mesmos. Uma atenção especial para o núcleo dess

5. Obtenção e caracterização de espumas cerâmicas de alumina para uso como queimadores radiantes
Ceramic foams are cellular porous ceramics that can be produce by different methods, like replica method, sacrificial template method and direct foaming method. Foams are a type of porous ceramic which present many properties making them a very versatile material, used in different applications, like radiant porous burners. Radiant burners consist of ceramic

6. Biodegradation of polyurethane derived from castor oil
The aim of this research was to study the biodegradation of a polymer derived from castor oil, which is a renewable, natural material that is a practical alternative for the replacement of traditional polyurethane foams. Due to its molecular structure, which contains polyester segments derived from vegetable oil, the polymeric surface is susceptible to micro

7. Caracterização de cerâmicas porosas de alumina reforçada com zircônia produzidas pelo método da réplica
Porous ceramics have many applications: thermal insulation, catalytic support, materials to fire protection, filters, and others. There are many techniques to production of ceramic filters. One technique to obtain ceramic filters is the replication method. This method consists in the impregnation of polymeric foam with ceramic slurry followed by a heating tr

8. Drenagem de espumas gás-líquidos e influência da presença de partículas e anti-espumantes / Air-liquid foams drainage and influence of the presence of particles and antifoams
This Dissertation presents results of two comercial antifoams on the stability of gas-liquid foams formed in the presence of an anionic surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant and colloidal particles. Air-liquid foams are colloidal systems formed by air bubbles separated by liquid films. The drainage or flow of the liquid contained within these films pass through

9. Polímeros extracelulares insolúveis (EPS) nos reatores anaeróbios operados em bateladas seqüenciais: caracterização e fatores que favorecem a produção / Insoluble exopolysaccharides (EPS) in the anaerobic sequential batch biofilm reactor: characterization and factors that enhance the production
The insoluble exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced in anaerobic treatment processes from some kinds of wastewater are unwelcome due to operational problems that it may cause, making the process unfeasible most of times. The anaerobic sequential batch biofilm reactor (ASBBR), containing immobilized biomass, is a new configuration of reactor that has been studied

10. Inhibition of Microbial Growth by Fatty Amine Catalysts from Polyurethane Foam Test Tube Plugs
When polyurethane foam test tube plugs are autoclaved, they release volatile fatty amines that inhibit the growth of some microorganisms. The chemical structures of these amines were determined by the use of a gas chromatographmass spectrometer. They are catalysts used to produce the foam. The problem of contaminating growth media with toxic substances relea

11. Macroporous polymer foams by hydrocarbon templating
Porous polymeric media (polymer foams) are utilized in a wide range of applications, such as thermal and mechanical insulators, solid supports for catalysis, and medical devices. A process for the production of polymer foams has been developed. This process, which is applicable to a wide range of polymers, uses a hydrocarbon particulate phase as a template f
