RESUMOApresenta-se um modelo empírico capaz de representar, analiticamente, a curva de distribuição textural acumulada de partículas de um solo e, a partir desse modelo, obter uma expressão que fornece o diâmetro médio predominante de partículas (∅ ∅ ∅ ∅ ∅ m ), que representa o tamanho médio de partículas que ocorrem com maior freqüência no solo. Essas expressões podem ser aplicadas tanto na física do solo quanto em estudos geológicos, geomorfológicos e sedimentológicos.Termos de indexação: textura, curva textural, distribuição de partículas. SUMMARY: CHARACTERISTIC MEAN DIAMETER OF SOIL PARTICLES
Water, which is essential for the existence of life, has almost a hundred properties that distinguish it from other liquids.In this paper, we will focus on its density, which, unlike the absolute majority of other liquids, increases with increasingtemperature in the vicinity of the solid-liquid transition, for a wide range of pressures, including ambient pressure. Ourapproach will present an analytical thermodynamic formulation for this problem that has as a novelty the introductionof a variable exclusion volume. We will consider the excluded volume a thermodynamic variable that depends onthe system's thermal conditions. This approach will be applied to the two-liquid theory of water, which claims thatwater molecules can be assembled into two different kinds of clusters. At a given state, the relative numbers of theseaggregates can be very sensitive to thermal variations, and, as the excluded volume for each of them is different, whentheir relative number changes, the total excluded volume also changes. We will show how to gather the ideas of a nonconstant excluded volume with the two-liquid theory of water into a new, elegant and non-trivial analytical expression for the density of water. In the end, we compare our expression with experimental data and show that it provides an exact understanding of the anomalous behavior of water density.
Young people can have negative repercussions on their mental health, quality of life and on illnesses related to physical inactivity due to social isolation and fear of the disease (Covid-19). This study aimed to analyze the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the quality of life, level of physical activity and mental health of university students. College students (16-24 years old) completed an online interview, considering possible changes in mental health, quality of life and physical activity level, evaluating the moment before and during the pandemic. The recruitment strategy of the participants was the snowball type. 1,167 young people (69.2%-women) attended in the study, of which 8.8% had a confirmed diagnosis of Covid-19. There was a worsening in all scores of quality of life, stress and depression during the pandemic when compared to the period prior to the pandemic (p < 0.001). The pandemic also increased inactivity among young people (49.1% vs 28%, p < 0.001). Female students, from the health area, who had their own home and who did not have confirmed diagnosis of Covid-19 showed increased stress in the pandemic period. The Covid-19 pandemic worsened the indicators of mental health, quality of life and level of physical activity among university students. It is noteworthy that despite not being a risk group for the aggravation of the disease and consequent higher mortality, restrictions related to the pandemic limited or prevented the movement of people and this isolation can represent important changes in health in the medium and long term in this population.
TítuloFluxograma do processo de desidratação da batata e uso de aditivos ResumoInformações acerca do fluxograma referente ao processo de desidratação da batata, assim como o uso de aditivos para sua conservação. Palavras-chaveAditivo alimentar; antioxidante; batata; conservação; conservação do alimento; conservante; desidratação do alimento; fluxograma; processamento; produção; purê de batata Assunto Fabricação de batata preparada e conservada Demanda Gostaria de obter informações sobre o fluxograma do processo de desidratação da batata, uso de aditivos para fixar cor e conservar o produto e sua utilização na indústria alimentícia. Solução apresentada IntroduçãoOs excedentes da produção de batata geram toneladas de resíduos, devido às perdas póscolheita e a demora entre a compra e a venda. Uma alternativa à redução das perdas por deteriorização, é a produção de flocos de batata desidratados.Segundo Petter; Lucchin; Santa Maria (2003) trata-se de flocos constituídos de batatas cozidas, desidratadas na forma de grânulos finos. São obtidos a partir de batatas frescas cortadas, cozidas, amassadas, moídas e desidratadas em secadores de tambor.Os flocos de batata desidratada são muito utilizados na indústria alimentícia para a produção de alimentos para bebês, sopas, pães, biscoitos, bolos e snacks. A produção de flocos de batata desidratados reduz os custos operacionais da indústria com importação e garante 100% do aproveitamento da matéria-prima. Processo de desidrataçãoDe acordo com Fires (2005), a desidratação é o processo de retirada de água dos alimentos, por meio de circulação forçada de ar quente, através de bandejas perfuradas aonde é colocado o produto a ser desidratado. É realizada através de calor produzido artificialmente em condições de temperatura, umidade e corrente de ar cuidadosamente controladas.
