Multifunctional Compartmentalized Capsules with a Hierarchical Organization from the Nano to the Macro Scales by Rui R. Costa (1487530)

“…By varying the temperature from 25 to 37 °C, the two-hour release of rhodamine encapsulated within the microcapsules and its diffusion through the external compartment decreased from 84% and 71%. The devices could withstand handling and centrifugal stress, with 50% remaining intact at a rotation speed of 2000<i>g</i>. …”

Buckling and Torsional Instabilities of a Nanoscale Biological Rope Bound to an Elastic Substrate by Chris Peacock (9437559)

“…In addition, in ambient conditions, the sine wave response coexists with the formation of loops along the length of the fibrils, as observed for the torsional instability of a twisted filament when tension is decreased. This work provides direct evidence that single collagen fibrils are highly susceptible to axial compression because of their helical supermolecular structure. …”

Time of speech-language therapy in a public service versus recommended parameters by Juliane Maria Geraldo Morelli (12825565)

“…The worst results were for the frequency parameters, whereas the voice complaint presented an adequacy of 50%. CONCLUSIONS: It is believed that the data obtained may help to improve the organization of the service, prioritizing the parameters in decreasing order, frequency, duration and time, highlighting the importance of providing conditions to implement programs to optimize public health services that are in greater demand.…”
