When describing the mechanical behaviour of the lithosphere modelled as a thin plate, the most important parameter corresponds to its flexural rigidity, which is commonly expressed through the effective elastic thickness, ...

The purpose of this work is to study the theme “infiltration trenches” in some of its main aspects, such as sizing methods and parameters related to this, in order to subsidize the installation of these structures in the ...

The cultivation of sugar cane represents one of the most important agricultural supplies in Brazil. One one of its driving factors is the production of etanol, a widely used fuel for Brazilian automobiles. Among the residue ...

ZnO particles synthesized by the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method were sensitized with different amounts of ionic liquid (IL) 1.3-dimethylimidazolium iodide (MMI.I). The structure of the modified and unmodified ZnO ...

The intra-arc Liquine-Ofqui Fault System (LOFS) is an active transpressive fault zone located in the Patagonian Andes of Chile. In 2007, a seismic sequence occurred in the Aysen Fjord region of Chilean Patagonia along the ...
