1. Characterization of Sobradinho landslide in fluvial valley using MASW and ERT methods
Abstract Landslides can substantially impact the fluvial systems, which is why the continuous mapping of their extent, evolution and stability assessment is crucial. However, in such environments, material identification (e.g. colluvium) and subsurface characterization by the methods used for geologic mapping and geotechnical investigation is often a challen

2. COVID-19: A Matter Close to the Heart
Abstract Background: Hepatic congestion is a frequent finding in patients with heart failure (HF). Physical examination has limitations in quantifying systemic congestion and requires correlation with echocardiographic and laboratory data (usually B-type natriuretic peptide, BNP, or N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide, NT-proBNP). Hepatic elastography

5. Influence of Stress on Propagation of Shear Wave in Piezoelectric-Piezoelectric (PE-PE) Composite Layered Structure
Abstract Shear waves (SH) propagation in piezoelectric composite under the influence of initial stress is investigated analytically and numerically. The dispersion equation of shear waves propagation in direction normal to the layering is obtained in presence of initial stress. Numerical solutions were obtained for evaluating the effect of stress on dimensi

6. Monitoring Heat Treatments in Steels by a Non Destructive Ultrasonic Method
In order to determine if heat treatments can be discerned by nondestructive ultrasonic testing, samples of SAE 1045 and SAE 4140 steels were subjected to the classical heat treatments of annealing, normalizing, quenching, and quenching and tempering, and their elastics constants, Young's, shear and Poisson's moduli, were monitored by ultrasound. Results show

7. Ultrasonic method of microvibration detection: part II - additional processing method and applications
Abstract Introduction In the last 28 years, the scientific community has been using elastography to evaluate the mechanical properties of biological tissue. The aim of this work was the optimization of the UDmV method, presented in Part I of the series, by means of modifying the technique employed to generate the reference sine and cosine functions, used fo

8. Acoustic Birefringence and Poisson's Ratio Determined by Ultrasound: Tools to Follow-Up Deformation by Cold Rolling and Recrystallization
Poisson's ratio and birefringence, both measured by ultrasound, are used to follow the evolution of the anisotropy in ASTM A-36 steel plates cold-rolled between 5 and 50% deformation, and then subjected to recrystallization at 900 and 1000 ºC. Times of flight of longitudinal and shear waves along the thickness of the plates were measured. As orthotropy incr

9. Achieving effective confinement through utilization of non-Newtonian fluid mixture as stemming structure
Abstract The economics of a mining operation is directly influenced by blasting outcomes, where blasting aims to comminute the rock mass in order to attain smaller grain sizes to be loaded and hauled at a minimum cost for its first processing stage. In order to promote adequate rock breakage, the stemming structure needs to provide proper confinement for the

10. A magneto-motive ultrasound platform designed for pre-clinical and clinical applications
Abstract Introduction Magneto-motive ultrasound (MMUS) combines magnetism and ultrasound (US) to detect magnetic nanoparticles in soft tissues. One type of MMUS called shear-wave dispersion magneto-motive ultrasound (SDMMUS) analyzes magnetically induced shear waves (SW) to quantify the elasticity and viscosity of the medium. The lack of an established pres

11. Seismic Pressures in Offshore Areas: Numerical Results
Abstract The purpose of this study is to obtain numerical estimations of seismic pressures in offshore areas considering the effect of seabed configurations and soil materials. To this end, the Boundary Element Method is used to irradiate waves, so that force densities can be obtained for each boundary element. From this hypothesis, Huygens´ Principle is im

12. Evaluation and comparison of behavior of corrugated steel plate shear walls
In this paper, the nonlinear behaviour of steel plate shear walls with corrugated plates under lateral pushover loading conditions in the models' top level has been analytically investigated by the finite element method. The one-storey frames have beams and columns as boundary elements. Steel plate shear walls are simulated using the finite element method, b
