Effects of resistance training on liver structure and function of aged rats
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-01-01)
The aging process may cause negative physiological changes. However, exercises as resistance training (RT) have been considered an important intervention to attenuate these changes. Additionally, liver plays an important ...
EVALUATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE STANDARD FIRE RESISTANCE CALCULATION METHODS IN THE VERIFICATION OF CONCRETE WALL BUILDINGS
(Centro Federal Educacao Tecnologica Rio Grande Norte, 2021-01-01)
It is necessary, in order to carry out the assessment of concrete structures in a fire situation, to know the Standard Fire Resistance of the structural elements. Both the ABNT NBR 14432 (2001) and the ABNT NBR 15200 (2012) ...
