Изменение характеристик потока в мультициклоне при различной установке циклонных элементов

В работе представлены результаты численного моделирования потоков в корпусемультициклона, в двух моделях расположения циклонных элементов. Целью работы является возможность оптимизации расположения входов полуулиточных патрубков циклонных элементов в батарейном циклоне по первой и второй моделям. Они позволяют также более точно учесть гидравлическое сопротивление аппарата при определении наиболее эффективного расположения циклонных элементов.The paper presents the results of numerical simulation of flows in the case of multicyclone, in two models of the location of the cyclone elements. The aim of this work is the possibility of optimizing the location of entrances palowitch nozzles cyclone elements in the battery cyclone the first and second models. They also allow for a more accurate account of the hydraulic resistance of the device when determining the most effective location of cyclonic elements

O que a Evolução pode nos ensinar sobre Raça e Racismo? Entrevista com o Joseph L Graves Jr.

O Dr. Joseph L. Graves Jr., renomado biólogo evolutivo e geneticista norte-americano, da North Carolina A&T State University, concedeu uma entrevista à Revista de Medicina, através dos grupos de pesquisa Race.ID (Grupo de Pesquisa em Saúde da População Negra) e BrEHS (Brazilian Evolution and Health Study Group). Na entrevista, o professor conta sobre sua trajetória, os desafios enfrentados na carreira, o que significa ser um cientista negro nos EUA, as complicadas relações entre a medicina e a ideia de raça e o que a medicina evolutiva tem a ver com tudo isso.Dr. Joseph L. Graves Jr., a renowned American evolutionary biologist and geneticist from North Carolina A&T State University, granted an interview to Revista de Medicina through the research groups Race.ID (Research Group on Black Population Health) and BrEHS (Brazilian Evolution and Health Study Group). In the interview, the professor talks about his journey, the challenges he has faced in his career, what it means to be a Black scientist in the USA, the complex relationship between medicine and the concept of race, and how evolutionary medicine is connected to all of this

The malleable brain: plasticity of neural circuits and behavior: A review from students to students

One of the most intriguing features of the brain is its ability to be malleable, allowing it to adapt continually to changes in the environment. Specific neuronal activity patterns drive long-lasting increases or decreases in the strength of synaptic connections, referred to as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) respectively. Such phenomena have been described in a variety of model organisms, which are used to study molecular, structural, and functional aspects of synaptic plasticity. This review originated from the first International Society for Neurochemistry (ISN) and Journal of Neurochemistry (JNC) Flagship School held in Alpbach, Austria (Sep 2016), and will use its curriculum and discussions as a framework to review some of the current knowledge in the field of synaptic plasticity. First, we describe the role of plasticity during development and the persistent changes of neural circuitry occurring when sensory input is altered during critical developmental stages. We then outline the signaling cascades resulting in the synthesis of new plasticity-related proteins, which ultimately enable sustained changes in synaptic strength. Going beyond the traditional understanding of synaptic plasticity conceptualized by LTP and LTD, we discuss system-wide modifications and recently unveiled homeostatic mechanisms, such as synaptic scaling. Finally, we describe the neural circuits and synaptic plasticity mechanisms driving associative memory and motor learning. Evidence summarized in this review provides a current view of synaptic plasticity in its various forms, offers new insights into the underlying mechanisms and behavioral relevance, and provides directions for future research in the field of synaptic plasticity.Fil: Schaefer, Natascha.
