    Get PDF
    Transformers are essential equipment to the operation of electrical power systems, a failure causes the lack of electricity supply to end-users, affecting the operating indicators of companies in the distribution sector. The investigation presents an identification of the faults in transformers through a fishbone diagram, an evaluation of the variables that cause the identified failure using the cross-impact matrix method and a proposal to improve the performance. The results will enable a plan to be developed for taking action with monitoring plans to avoid faults that could put the electrical asset at risk and achieve a better performance of the distribution network

    Comparison of frictional forces during the closure of extraction spaces in passive self-ligating brackets and conventionally ligated brackets using the finite element method

    This study compared the frictional force resulting from the bracket/archwire interface and the stress at the root/periodontal ligament/bone interface, between passive self-ligating brackets and conventionally ligated brackets, during the space closure stage. A cone beam tomography was taken to a female patient that required extraction of upper first premolars and passive self-ligating system; three months after its activation, a cone beam tomography was taken again. The designs of the maxillary bone and the entire system were possible through tomography images and stereomicroscopic photographs. Validation of the Finite Element Method (FEM) was achieved comparing the amount of movement seen through tomography images and the FEM. Space closure was simulated for each system through the FEM and a comparison was made between the frictional force at the bracket/archwire interface, and the root/periodontal ligament/bone interface. The most significant representation of frictional force at bracket/archwire interface and bone stress was found at the conventionally ligated system, while the passive self-ligating system accounted for the highest distribution of stress over the root. The FEM is an accurate tool used to quantify frictional force and stress concentration during the orthodontic closure. The passive self-ligating system was seen less frictional during the closure state compared to conventional brackets

    Selective CO removal over Au/CeFe and CeCu catalysts in microreactors studied through kinetic analysis and CFD simulations

    A kinetic study of the preferential oxidation of CO in H2 rich streams (CO-PrOx) over a cerium-copper oxide (CeCu) and a gold catalyst supported on cerium-iron oxide (Au/CeFe) is presented. The gold catalyst is very active but the CeCu oxide is more selective. A kinetic model describing the CO-PrOx system with CO2 and H2O in the feed has been formulated considering the oxidation of CO and H2 and the reverse water-gas shift reaction. The rate equations have been implemented in computational fluid dynamics codes to study the influence of the operating variables on the CO-PrOx in microchannels and microslits. The CeCu catalyst is the only one capable of achieving final CO contents below 10-100ppmv. Due to the opposite effect of temperature on activity and selectivity there is an optimal temperature at which the CO content is minimal over CeCu. This temperature varies between 170 and 200°C as the GHSV increases from 10,000 to 50,000h-1. Simulations have evidenced the very good heat transfer performance of the microdevices showing that the CO-PrOx temperature can be controlled using air as cooling fluid although the inlet temperature and flow rate should be carefully controlled to avoid reaction extinction. Both microchannels and microslits behaved similarly. The fact that the microslits are much easier to fabricate may be an interesting advantage in favour of that geometry in this case.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación MAT2006-12386-C05, ENE2009-14522-C0

    ABSTRACT: The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the static and dynamic frictional force generated between surfaces of metallic brackets and glass coated applied by the Sol-Gel method, and non coated wires. Methods: metallic brackets (0,018 x 0,025″), stainless steel wires (0,016 x 0,016″) and elastic ligatures were used in all frictional tests. All components were characterized using SE M and optical microscopy. The frictional force was evaluated using a machine of tests Testresources® in dry environment. Results: the results showed that the stainless steel wires without modification (control group) showed the lowest values of static friction force followed by the stainless steel wires group coated by Sol-Gel method and the wires group with thermic treatment (thermic group). For dynamic friction force, the Sol-Gel group showed the smallest values, followed by the control group and the thermal group. Conclusion: the evaluated coating did not show a better frictional performance applied on stainless steel brackets in comparison with the control group.RESUMEN: El propósito de este estudio in vitro fue comparar la fuerza de fricción estática y dinámica generada entre brackets y alambres de acero inoxidable con y sin recubrimiento vítreo aplicado por el método Sol-Gel. Métodos: en todas las pruebas de fricción fueron utilizados brackets (0,018 x 0,025”), alambres de acero inoxidable (0,016 x 0,016”) y ligaduras elásticas. Se realizó una caracterización con microscopia óptica y microscopia electrónica de barrido (SE M). La fuerza friccional fue evaluada utilizando una máquina de pruebas Testresources® en medio seco. Resultados: los resultados mostraron que el grupo de alambres de acero inoxidable sin modificación (grupo control) presentaron los valores más bajos de fuerza de fricción estática, seguido del grupo de alambres recubiertos por el método Sol-Gel (grupo Sol-Gel) y el grupo de alambres con tratamiento térmico (grupo térmico). Para la fricción dinámica, el grupo Sol-Gel mostró los valores más bajos, seguido del grupo control y el grupo térmico. Conclusión: los recubrimientos evaluados no mostraron mejor comportamiento friccional sobre brackets de acero inoxidable cuando son comparados con el grupo control

    Q2Q160-66Pacientes hospitalizadosObjectives: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) represent a major clinical problem in Colombia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors associated with MRSA SSTI in Colombia. Methods: A multicenter cohort study with nested case–control design was performed. Patients with an SSTI with at least 48 h of inpatient care were included. Patients with an MRSA SSTI were considered the case group and patients with either a non-MRSA SSTI or with an Methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) SSTI were the control groups. A multivariate logistic regression approach was used to evaluate risk factors associated with MRSA SSTI with two different statistical models. Results: A total 1134 patients were included. Cultures were positive for 498 patients, of which 52% (n = 259) were Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA was confirmed in 68.3% of the S. aureus cultures. In the first model, independent risk factors for MRSA SSTI were identified as the presence of abscess (P<0.0001), cellulitis (P = 0.0007), age 18–44 years (P = 0.001), and previous outpatient treatment in the previous index visit (P = 0.003); surgical site infection was a protective factor (P = 0.008). In the second model, the main risk factor found was previous outpatient treatment in the previous index visit (P = 0.013). Conclusions: Community-acquired SSTIs in Colombia are commonly caused by MRSA. Therefore, clinicians should consider MRSA when designing the initial empirical treatment for purulent SSTI in Colombia, although there seems to be low awareness of this fact
