Impedance spectroscopy for characterization of biological matter
Standard characterization methods of biological cells are time consuming and may reduce cell viability by staining them with markers. An alternative fast and non-destructive method is developed using impedance spectroscopy, which has potential applications in biology. The technique is used to identify tumor cells in mice, detect bacterial eye infections, monitor fruit ripening, and measure sweat lactate concentration in humans by using a skin sensor. These applications often require a portable measurement system. Therefore, three portable systems were designed and tested. It has been shown that the method can be further improved by four-terminal measurements. For extension of the method in the millimeter-wave frequencies, full electromagnetic simulation of the chip has been carried out, and electrodes and interconnections have been adjusted accordingly.
Engenharia de Materiais

Esta obra reúne os maiores pesquisadores brasileiros da área para apresentarem seus temas de pesquisa, que estão construindo as bases de novas tecnologias e progressos inovadores.
Comportamento geotécnico de solos estabilizados com cinza de casca de arroz
O município de Cabrobó, em Pernambuco, concentra a maior parte do arroz produzido no estado e a Construção Civil na cidade está em crescimento devido às obras de Integração do Rio São Francisco. A casca de arroz é utilizada no processo de geração de energia térmica para a parboilização do arroz e a cinza gerada nesse processo é um material leve utilizado para redução da acidez na agricultura local. Os solos expansivos podem acarretar problemas para as edificações pela variação de volume que ocorre quando há mudança de umidade, devido à presença de argilominerais do tipo 2:1 que facilitam a absorção de moléculas de água. Este e-book tem como objetivo analisar o comportamento geotécnico de dois solos (C1 e C2) potencialmente expansivos de Cabrobó em estado natural e suas misturas com proporções, em peso de solo seco, de 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% e 10% de cinza de casca de arroz (CCA) para reduzir a expansividade do solo. Foram realizados ensaios de caracterização Física, Química e Mecânica para estudo do comportamento do solo na presença da CCA.
Fundamentals of Business Process Management
This textbook covers the entire Business Process Management (BPM) lifecycle, from process identification to process monitoring, covering along the way process modelling, analysis, redesign and automation. Concepts, methods and tools from business management, computer science and industrial engineering are blended into one comprehensive and inter-disciplinary approach. The presentation is illustrated using the BPMN industry standard defined by the Object Management Group and widely endorsed by practitioners and vendors worldwide. In addition to explaining the relevant conceptual background, the book provides dozens of examples, more than 230 exercises – many with solutions – and numerous ...
Shock Waves
Ending poverty and stabilizing climate change will be two unprecedented global achievements and two major steps toward sustainable development. But the two objectives cannot be considered in isolation: they need to be jointly tackled through an integrated strategy. This report brings together those two objectives and explores how they can more easily be achieved if considered together. It examines the potential impact of climate change and climate policies on poverty reduction. It also provides guidance on how to create a “win-win†? situation so that climate change policies contribute to poverty reduction and poverty-reduction policies contribute to climate change mitigation and resilience building. The key finding of the report is that climate change represents a significant obstacle to the sustained eradication of poverty, but future impacts on poverty are determined by policy choices: rapid, inclusive, and climate-informed development can prevent most short-term impacts whereas immediate pro-poor, emissions-reduction policies can drastically limit long-term ones.
Ecohydrological Interfaces
Ecohydrological Interfaces Comprehensive overview of the process dynamics and interactions governing ecohydrological interfaces Summarizing the interdisciplinary investigation of ecohydrological interface functioning, Ecohydrological Interfaces advances the understanding of their dynamics across traditional subject boundaries. It offers a detailed explanation of the underlying mechanisms and process interactions governing ecohydrological interface functioning from the micro scale to the ecosystem and regional scale. The multidisciplinary team of authors integrates and synthesises the current understanding of process dynamics at different ecohydrological interfaces to develop a unifying conce...
Climate Change on Mountains
The world is warming up rapidly and this change is most noticeable in mountains with already observable consequences on flora and fauna. This book presents concepts, methodologies and major achievements of recent research in climate change ecology in mountains by placing this research in a historical perspective, that of travelers and naturalists of the Romantic era, and first of all Alexander von Humboldt. There is now a renewed interest, both in academia and beyond, in Humboldt, his writings and his view of nature. But how can we actually make use of his writings? How can we put his philosophy into practice? How can we still learn from past scientific figures and do a better science today?...
