Resumo: Este trabalho vem contribuir com a técnica de tratamento de solos moles por meio do sistema de estabilização Dry-Mix, analisando parâmetros de resistência à compressão não confinada de corpos-de-prova, devidamente preparados com misturas plásticas de solo mole, aglomerante (cimento Portland) e água, em laboratório. O solo utilizado era oriundo da região da Baixada Santista, localizada no Estado de São Paulo. Duas diferentes dosagens de cimento, 100 e 200 kg de cimento por m³ de solo, além de dois diferentes tipos de cimento CP III e CP V, foram utilizadas neste estudo. Os corpos-deprova foram ensaiados à compressão não confinada nas idades de cura de 7, 28, 90 e 180 dias, e submetidos aos ensaios de ultrassom, durante 28 dias. As dosagens inferiores a 100 kg de cimento por m³ de solo apresentaram resultados de resistência à compressão não confinada inferiores a 200 kN/m², não sendo recomendadas para o tratamento Dry-Mix. Os módulos de elasticidade apresentaram valores crescentes até a idade de 28 dias, indicando perda da rigidez após essa idade de cura. Nos ensaios de ultrassom, foram observados resultados significativos somente para os corpos-de-prova com a dosagem de 200 kg de cimento por m³ de solo. Os resultados de resistência à compressão simples foram submetidos a uma análise estatística, na qual as médias dos resultados foram comparadas com o tipo de cimento, a dosagem, a quantidade de turfa e a idade dos corpos-de-prova, utilizando o teste de Tukey, ao nível de 95% de probabilidade estatística. No geral, os melhores resultados ficaram por conta do cimento CP V - ARI, e com a dosagem de 200 kg de cimento por metro cúbico de solo
Abstract: This work focuses on contributing with the soft soil treatment through the use of Dry-Mix stabilization system, analyzing the parameters of unconfined compressive strength tests performed in specimens properly prepared with plastic mixtures of soft soil, binder (Portland cement) and water, in laboratory. The soil used was from Santos city, located in the state of São Paulo. Two different amounts of cement, 100 and 200 kg per cubic meter of soil, as well as two different kinds of cement: CP III and CP V cement were used in this study. The tests were conducted under unconfined compressive strength at ages 7, 28, 90 and 180 days and underwent ultrasound tests for 28 days. The amounts below 100 kg of cement per m³ presented unconfined compressive strength results under 200 kN/m², which are not recommended for Dry-Mix treatment. The modules of elasticity presented increasing numbers up to the age of 28 days, indicating rigidity loss after this age. In the ultrasound tests, significant results were observed only in the test with the amount of 200 kg of cement per soil m³. The simple unconfined compressive strength results underwent a statistic analysis, in which the result averages were compared according to the type of cement and amount, as well as the amount of peat and the tests ages, by using the Tukey's range test at 95% of statistical probability. In general, the best results were presented by the CP V - ARI cement, with the amount of 200 kg cement per m³ of soil

Abstract:
Bricks are traditional building materials with ancient origin, but that can respond to the important challenges the industrial research is currently called to face, i.e. in reducing energy consumption, in lowering production costs and in improving physical properties and durability of the finished products. The growing demand for a sustainable production addressed research to obtain new materials designed to meet environmental issues and society welfare. A possible way to achieve these goals and satisfy these different aspects is the optimisation of new mix design, re-using waste materials produced from industrial, urban and excavation activities. The fulfilment of a sustainable production is twofold, determining a reduction in the exploitation of new geo-resources, and mitigating the problem of waste accumulation and management, reassessing residual materials as secondary sources for a new environmental-friendly material production. Although numerous studies have been carried out in the last decades addressing waste reuse as a successful alternative resource in the production of bricks, their implementation in the industrial sector is still very limited. The main reasons are: i) sporadic partnership between academic research and industry in this technological area; ii) lack of specific standards for the evaluation of processes and finished products; and iii) limited public education on the possible sustainable frontiers. Another important issue should be considered in the production of new materials: the maintenance of the aesthetic quality when substituting traditional materials. Bricks are building materials, and innovation should respect parameters such as the "cultural compatibility", understood as the recognition of the territorial identity of a community. This aspect has even of greater relevance when bricks are used as integration or replacement materials in the restoration of damaged historical buildings. This work aims at filling the gap between academic research and industrial development, through a close collaboration between university and industry and the achievement of common objectives. This was possible with the support of a leader company in the production of traditional bricks, SanMarco-Terreal srl (Noale, Italy), which contributed offering technical support, raw materials and consolidate experience in the production of traditional bricks. New mix designs have been developed according to the objectives of Horizon 2020, (https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/horizon2020/), particularly in the field of sustainable use of natural resources, optimization of firing conditions, recycling and gas emission control, in order to satisfy the goals related to the scientific excellence, the societal challenges and the industry leadership. Therefore, the study focused on: 1) the relationship between chemical-mineralogical characteristics and mechanical properties and durability under different stress conditions of bricks already on the market, obtained by different clays and fired at different temperatures (600, 950, 980, 1050°C); 2) the characterisation of the pore system in commercial bricks using a multi-analytical approach, in order to fully understand and describe porosity through a parameterization of the morphological characteristics of pores. This study was also addressed to the optimization of the pore system in fired bricks obtained from different raw materials and fired at different temperatures (600, 950, 1050°C), providing hints for the optimisation of production strategies that can affect the pore system and the brick quality; 3) the study of new mix designs obtained by adding waste material from quarrying activities and industrial sludge for the production of new bricks based on the concepts of reuse and sustainable use of natural resources. The type of waste specifically adopted were: i) trachyte fragments from quarrying activity (Euganean Hills, Italy); ii) sludge resulting from the ceramic industry. The study of the commercial bricks showed that the chemical-mineralogical and physical-mechanical properties, the porosity and the durability of the finished products are highly dependent on the raw material composition and the firing temperatures reached during the production process. The results obtained for the new experimental products demonstrated the real possibility to achieve new bricks reusing waste, maintaining the physical, mechanical and aesthetic features of the traditional materials and improving the quality of the finished product. More in detail, commercial bricks fired at temperature of 1050°C showed considerable mineralogical transformations, with the growth of new phases and a higher vitrification process in the matrix, which determined improvement of the mechanical properties. On the contrary, brick fired at 600°C had good water behaviour, but resulted weaker during accelerated ageing tests. This behaviour is due to the low compactness determined by the absence of vitrification in the matrix and the low rate of new phase crystallisation. Moreover, it was observed how hausmannite (Mn3O4) used as a dye, caused changes not only in the aesthetic aspect of the finished product determining a dark grey colour, but also in its mechanical properties and in the porous system, since it promotes the melting process. The detailed study of the porosity allowed knowing the pore system in each of the samples and assessing the influence of the raw materials and firing temperature on the development of the pore system. Bricks produced with carbonate clay showed higher porosity and pore interconnection due to the decomposition of the carbonate during the firing process. Moreover, in the bricks fired at higher temperatures (1050°C) changes in the morphology of pores occurred, which became larger and rounder due to the release of volatiles. On the contrary, in bricks obtained from the least carbonate clay and fired at 600°C, porosity displayed very different features, with less homogeneous and smaller pores. In the study on the influence of the waste materials used in the production of new bricks, two different cases were considered: i) addition of stone waste from trachyte quarrying activity; ii) addition of ceramic sludge. These materials were added as temper; influence on the physical-mechanical properties and durability were investigated. Results were satisfactory, recognising their potentiality as possible sustainable additives in the brick industry. It was observed that the alkali feldspars in trachyte act as fluxing agents and decrease the melting point. This effect was emphasized with different observations: textural and mineralogical analyses showed a considerable increase of the number of bridges among minerals and a wider recrystallization of the matrix, sonic data an overall increase in compactness, porometry a different evolution of the pores system upon firing. These changes developed not only at increasing temperature, but also at increasing trachyte content. Furthermore, the analysis of the thermal properties, carried out on infrared images showed that the increasing content of trachyte reduces heat transmittance. Only in one case (a brick with 15% of trachyte and fired at 1050°C) an increase in heat transmittance was observed, caused by the high degree of sintering achieved. In general, the good response to stress conditions (under freeze-thaw and salt crystallization cycles) and the relatively homogeneous features among the samples showed that trachyte can be considered as a valid alternative material to the currently used temper which also brings technical advantages. One important result is that the addition of a trachytic temper confers to bricks the same technical features of traditional ones already at a temperature as low as 900°C, opening the possibility to the reduction of production costs, in addition to that of exploitation and use of new geo-resources. The use of sludge from ceramic industry also showed satisfactory results. Colorimetry proved that these bricks have aesthetic characteristics very similar to those of bricks already on the market, as well as mechanical properties determined by uniaxial compressive and ultrasonic tests. Nonetheless, differences arose when durability was evaluated. While during the salt crystallisation tests the experimental bricks preserve almost intact their original appearance and mechanical properties, they resulted to be particularly vulnerable to freeze-thaw cycles. This suggests that they may represent a valid substitute of commercial bricks, but caution should be taken when using in cold climates. PhD thesis is an important starting point to address the improvement of the traditional bricks in a sustainable way, and the assessment of the characteristics for new materials derived from industrial wastes, evaluating quality and durability. Both case studies demonstrated that the reuse of industrial waste could indeed sustain the industrial sector of brick production, providing a reduction in the exploitation of geo-resources, energy consumption and costs. The comprehension of the intrinsic relationships between mineralogical composition, textural features and physical properties resulted to be fundamental for the development of new products.
BRICKTECH: Valutazione dell’utilizzo dei materiali di scarto nella produzione di laterizi. Caratterizzazione petrofisica di nuovi mix design e ottimizzazione delle condizioni di cottura. RIASSUNTO Il laterizio é un materiale della tradizione costruttiva dalle antiche origini, ma che può rispondere alle importanti sfide verso cui la ricerca in ambito industriale è attualmente rivolta, ossia il risparmio energetico, l’abbassamento di costi nella produzione e il miglioramento delle qualità del prodotto finito. Inoltre, la crescente domanda di una produzione sostenibile ha indirizzato la ricerca verso nuovi materiali che tengano conto della salvaguardia dell’ambiente e del benessere della società. Una delle strade percorribili per il raggiungimenti di tali traguardi e che congiunge questi diversi aspetti è l’ottimizzazione di nuovi mix design, utilizzando materiali di scarto, risultato di attività industriali, urbane e di escavazione. In questo modo il consolidamento di produzioni di tipo sostenibile ha un duplice valore in quanto non solo determina la diminuzione dell’utilizzo di nuove geo-risorse, ma si risolve anche il problema dell’accumulo e della gestione dei rifiuti, rivalutandoli come fonte secondaria di interesse per la realizzazione di nuovi materiali nel rispetto della tutela dell’ambiente. Nonostante negli ultimi decenni siano stati numerosi gli studi effettuati per la realizzazione di mattoni con materiali di riuso come risorse alternative e questi abbiano dimostrato una vasta applicabilità nel settore del laterizio, l’implementazione in ambito industriale è ancora oggi molto limitata, a causa della mancanza della compartecipazione tra ricerca accademica e le reali necessità industriali, della scarsità di standard specifici di valutazione dei processi di lavorazione e dei prodotti finiti e della limitata educazione pubblica rispetto alle possibili frontiere sostenibili. Un altro aspetto importante che deve essere considerato nella produzione di nuovi materiali è quello del mantenimento delle caratteristiche estetiche del materiale tradizionale. Il mattone, infatti, essendo un materiale da costruzione, deve rispondere a parametri di “compatibilità culturale”, intesa come riconoscimento della identità territoriale di una comunità. Questo aspetto ovviamente ha un valore ancor maggiore nel caso di materiali impiegati con funzione di integrazione o sostituzione per il ripristino e/o restauro di edifici storici danneggiati. Questo lavoro è, pertanto, rivolto a colmare la lacuna di uno scarso dialogo tra ricerca accademica e sviluppo industriale, attraverso la stretta collaborazione tra università e industria e il raggiungimento di obiettivi condivisi. Questo è stato possibile grazie all’affiancamento di una ditta leader nel settore della produzione di laterizi tradizionali, la SanMarco-Terreal srl (Noale, Italia), che ha apportato il suo contributo mettendo a servizio strumentazioni, materie prime e la gran esperienza maturata in quest’ambito lavorativo. I prodotti sono stati sviluppati in linea con gli obiettivi di Horizon 2020 (https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/horizon2020/), soprattutto in termini di sfruttamento sostenibile delle risorse naturali, di miglioramento dei processi di trasformazione delle materie prime, di riciclaggio e della ottimizzazione delle condizioni di cottura, al fine di soddisfare i punti relativi all’eccellenza scientifica, alle sfide per la società e alla leadership industriale. Pertanto, lo studio è stato rivolto a: 1) mettere in relazione le caratteristiche mineralogiche e chimiche con le proprietà meccaniche e la durabilità in diverse condizioni di stress di materiali già in commercio, ottenuti da differenti argille e cotti a diverse temperature (600, 950, 980, 1050°C); 2) analizzare il sistema poroso di materiali industriali al fine di ottenerne una conoscenza affidabile e completa come punto di partenza per definire un protocollo per la quantificazione e la parametrizzazione delle caratteristiche morfologiche dei pori attraverso l'uso combinato di metodi tradizionali e tecniche di elaborazione di immagine a seconda del tipo di materia prima utilizzata e le temperature di cottura raggiunte (600, 950, 1050°C); 3) sperimentare nuovi mix design ottenuti dall'aggiunta di rifiuti provenienti da attività di estrazione di materiale lapideo e industriali per la produzione di nuovi mattoni basata sui concetti di riciclo e di uso sostenibile delle risorse. Il tipo di materiali di ri-uso adottati nello specifico sono stati: i) lo scarto di escavazione di trachite della cava di Rovolon, Colli Euganei, Vicenza (Italia); ii) un fango refluo derivante dall’industria ceramica. Lo studio dei mattoni commerciali ha confermato come le proprietà chimico-mineralogiche, fisico-petrografiche, di porosità e di durabilità dei prodotti finiti siano strettamente dipendenti dalla composizione delle materie prime e dalle temperature di cottura raggiunte durante il processo di produzione. I risultati conseguiti dalle analisi dei mix design sperimentali hanno dimostrato la possibilità di ottenere nuovi laterizi utilizzando materiale di scarto e di implementare strategie industriali con soluzioni sostenibili e compatibili. Più in dettaglio, i mattoni commerciali (1) cotti a temperature superiori a 1050°C hanno mostrato una maggiore evoluzione mineralogica, con la crescita di nuove fasi, e fusione della matrice, con un conseguente miglioramento delle proprietà meccaniche. Al contrario il mattone cotto a 600°C si è distinto per un buon comportamento idrico, rilevandosi però il più debole durante i cicli di invecchiamento accelerato, a causa della bassa compattezza, a questa dovuta all’assenza di vetrificazione nella matrice e alla bassa evoluzione di nuove fasi a tale temperatura. Inoltre, è stato osservato come l’hausmannite (Mn3O4) utilizzata come colorante, comporti cambiamenti non solo sull’aspetto estetico del prodotto finito (determinando un colore grigio scuro), ma agisca anche nelle sue proprietà meccaniche e nel sistema poroso promuovendo il processo di fusione. Lo studio dettagliato della porosità (2) conseguito attraverso l’uso di differenti metodologie di studio ha permesso da un lato di comprendere in maniera più approfondita i limiti di ogni tecnica, dall’altro di conoscere il sistema poroso di ogni campione nella sua complessità. I mattoni prodotti con argilla carbonatica han mostrato una maggiore porosità e interconnessione dei pori, che derivano dalla decomposizione del carbonato durante il processo di cottura. Nei mattoni cotti a temperature più alte (1050°C) è stato riscontrato lo sviluppo della morfologia dei pori, che diventano più grandi e rotondi. Al contrario nel mattone ottenuto con l’uso di una argilla meno carbonatica e cotto a 600°C, la porosità è molto diversa, i pori sono meno omogenei e più piccoli. Nella valutazione dell’influenza dell’utilizzo di materiale di scarto (3) per la produzione di nuovi laterizi, in entrambi i casi di studio i) l’aggiunta di trachite di escavazione (5, 10, 15% in peso) e ii) l’aggiunta del fango ceramico (10% in peso) come inerte, i risultati sono stati soddisfacenti al fine di identificare possibili “alternative sostenibili” ai mattoni attualmente in commercio. i) Si è visto come la presenza di feldspati alcalini nella trachite agiscono come agenti fondenti e diminuiscono il punto di fusione. Questo effetto è stato osservato sotto differenti punti di vista, dall’aumento della connessione tra i minerali, dalla crescente compattezza, dalla maggiore evoluzione della tessitura e del sistema dei pori, tutte caratteristiche che si sviluppano, non sono in corrispondenza dell’aumento della temperatura, ma anche dell’aumento del contenuto di trachite. Inoltre, lo studio delle proprietà termiche, condotto attraverso l’analisi di immagini infrarosse, ha evidenziato come il crescente contenuto di trachite riduca la capacità di trasmissione di calore. Solo nel caso del mattone con 15% di trachite e cotto alla temperatura di 1050°C è stata osservata una trasmissione di calore più rapida, per l’alto livello di sinterizzazione raggiunto. In generale la buona risposta alle condizioni di stress (gelo-disgelo e cristallizzazione di sali) e l’assenza di una forte differenza tra i campioni hanno dimostrato che la trachite può essere considerata un inerte alternativo a quello normalmente utilizzato che inoltre può recare vantaggi nella produzione, con risparmio di energia e di costi, dal momento che agisce come agente fondente. Il suo impiego permette, infatti, di ottenere mattoni cotti a 900°C (temperatura inferiore a quella attualmente utilizzata dalla ditta) e che contengano più del 10% di inerte, limitando lo sfruttamento e l’uso di nuove geo-risorse. ii) Anche la miscela con l’aggiunta del fango di scarto dell’industria ceramica ha ottenuto risultati soddisfacenti. Le prove di colorimetria han dimostrato che il prodotto finito mantiene un aspetto molto simile ad un mattone di colore giallo già in commercio (ottenuto con la stessa argilla, ma con l’inerte standard) suggerendone la possibile sostituzione dal punto di vista estetico. Le prove di compressione uniassiale e l’analisi ad ultrasuoni hanno, inoltre, rilevato anche un comportamento meccanico molto simile a quello del mattone commerciale giallo, indice della sua compatibilità anche nella riposta al carico. Solo dal punto di vista della durabilità il mattone ottenuto con l’aggiunta del fango ha mostrato una risposta più debole. Mentre durante la cristallizzazione dei sali il suo aspetto originario è rimasto quasi intatti, a condizioni forzate di gelo e disgelo si è riscontrato il progressivo deterioramento dei campioni fino alla loro totale disgregazione alla fine della prova. Alla luce di quanto evidenziato questo nuovo mix design può essere a tutti gli effetti considerato un’alternativa sostenibile del mattone commerciale, in particolare per il mantenimento delle proprietà fisico-meccaniche e delle qualità estetiche, ma non può essere messo in opera in edifici situati in situazioni ambientali dove sono possibili cicli di gelo e disgelo. Questa tesi di Dottorato rappresenta un punto di partenza fondamentale per affrontare la riqualificazione di mattoni tradizionali in chiave sostenibile e permettere la valutazione in termini di qualità e durabilità dei mix sperimentali ottenuti con materiali di riciclo, nel caso specifico consistenti in trachite di cava e in un fango ceramico. Entrambi i casi di studio hanno dimostrato di rappresentare una valida alternativa al fine di ottenere nuovi mattoni di interesse per il miglioramento del settore industriale del laterizio, in termini di risparmio di sfruttamento di geo-risorse, energia e costi. Comprendere le relazioni intrinseche tra composizione mineralogica, caratteristiche tessiturali, la microstruttura e le proprietà fisiche del laterizio è la base di una consapevole conoscenza del materiale per lo sviluppo di nuovi mix design.

Abstract:

Large areas prone to clay slides are present in Canada, Sweden and Norway. Traditionally, mainly geotechnical approaches have been used to solve clay-slide issues. However, there is great potential to utilise interdisciplinary studies in order to prevent or reduce possible slide damage. The present study combines geology, morphology and geophysical investigations, with geotechnical data. The purpose is to better understand landscape development, formation of quick clay and sliding in clay.

Thick, marine clay deposits in valleys along the Norwegian coast are occasionally subjected to large landslides involving quick clay. The development of quick clay is closely related to the deglaciation history of the coastal parts of Norway. During and after the last ice age, up to several hundred metres of glaciomarine and marine deposits accumulated in Norwegian fjords. These sediments were subsequently exposed on land due to glacioisostatic rebound. Leaching of salt from the marine clay by groundwater resulted in the development of quick-clay layers or pockets, which completely liquefy when remoulded.

The study area of this thesis is the small valley Buvika, located in the Trondheimsfjorden area, Mid Norway. Buvika is characterised by its undulating terrain with numerous slide scars and ravines. There are thick occurrences of quick clay in the subsurface.

The existing geotechnical and geophysical data, combined with sedimentology, structural geology, morphology, geophysical results, and 14C-datings, have given input to the understanding of the landscape development of the study area. From this, a deglaciation history has been deduced, indicating at least one, and possibly two, minor glacier re-advances in Late Allerød/Early Younger Dryas time. This implies that there have been more and larger ice-front oscillations in the study area than earlier documented.

The lowered relative sea level led to incision by rivers accompanied by numerous slides involving quick clay. The erosion pattern of a valley filled with glaciomarine and marine deposits can be quite complex, but careful analyses have helped outlining the interplay between river and ravine incision, groundwater erosion and sliding. The study of sediments and structures in large excavated sections have resulted in the detection of slide material from old flake-type slides, where only a thin layer of quick clay acted as a slide plane. Younger slide scars cutting into theses older slide deposits show further quick-clay development. Mapping of the morphology in Buvika has identified numerous slide scars and ravines. A relative chronology of slide events has been established based upon the slide scars’ position in the terrain and/or results from 14C-datings of terrestrial organic material. Most of the historical slide scars are located in the northern part of the valley.

Detailed mapping of the quick-clay extent is of great interest for planning and protection purposes, as the position of quick clay within slopes has a major impact on the landslide risk. In this study, the resistivity method is found to be potentially well suited for outlining quick-clay occurrences since quick clay has a slightly higher electrical resistivity (10-80 Ωm) than intact unleached clay (1-10 Ωm). This is due to a higher salt content in the latter. These relationships are supported by pore water salt content measurements. The resistivity profiles that were acquired show good correlation with other geophysical data and geotechnical drillings. However, the resistivity method must be combined with other investigations, since both leached, non-quick clay and silty, non-sensitive material may give resistivity values of the same range as quick clay.

The stratigraphy of an area strongly influences the landscape development. It determines the morphology, such as ravine development, and size, shape and distribution of slides. To the east of Buvika, thick and frequent layers of sand and gravel in the dominant clay deposits drain the slopes, leading to development of deeply incising ravines. To the south and north, thinner layers of coarse material in the clay lead to pore-pressure build-ups and quick-clay development, resulting in numerous slide scars.

Abstract:
Abstract This thesis examines the Mid-Pliocene climatic extreme ca. three million years ago (Ma) which was the latest longtime warm period. It is an important topic because the climate back then was warmer compared with the present. The bipolar regions are studied because they represent the largest areas that control the global climate. This study is based on clay mineral research that may significantly improve our knowledge of the Mid-Pliocene climate when combined with other palaeoenvironmental data. The paleoclimatological objectives of this study were: 1) to investigate how clay minerals reflect the Mid-Pliocene Global Warmth event, 2) to study ice sheet development at high latitudes, especially in East-Antarctica, and the history of ice rafting and sea ice, especially in the Arctic Ocean. This thesis deals with the clay mineral distribution and compositional analysis of the Pliocene-aged marine sediment sequences provided by the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP). The first studied site, Site 1165, is located at the continental rise of Prydz Bay, East Antarctica, and the second studied site, Site 911, is located at the Yermak Plateau, north of Svalbard, in the Arctic Ocean. The Pliocene smectite clay minerals at Site 1165 were mainly derived from Antarctic continental sources and transported to the site primarly by bottom currents related to warm events during the last 5 Ma. The evidence obtained in this study shows that the East Antarctic ice sheet may have been a dynamic ice sheet during the past 5 Ma, especially during the Mid-Pliocene. The results from the Mid-Pliocene possibly suggest a general warming trend. Based on the composition of the heavy minerals and clay minerals, at Site 911, the Pliocene smectite clay minerals were mainly transported within sea ice by the Siberian branch of the Transpolar Drift. The results indicate a warming trend at approximately 3 Ma after which they indicate a shift back to glacial conditions. Based on this study, the Mid-Pliocene Global Warmth can be observed in both the Arctic and Antarctic regions.

Cette recherche vise à analyser et à identifier, par des essais, le comportement au fluage d'une argile de type kaolinite sous un état de contraintes triaxial. Une investigation fine de l’état microstructural, avant et après fluage, a par ailleurs été réalisée. Les résultats macroscopiques ont permis de constater que des phénomènes de dilatance et de contractante s’amplifient pendant le fluage. Les résultats montrent également que la position, sur le plan des contraintes (p'-q), du niveau de contrainte vis-à-vis des différents domaines volumétriques, contrôle le développement de la déformation au fluage et du taux de déformation. Les résultats de MEB ont montré que l'évolution microstructurale de l'argile, après le chargement mécanique, dépend fortement de l'histoire du chargement
The objective of this research is to analyze the creep behavior of a typical clay along triaxial tests, moreover, to analyze the microstructural mechanisms of creep. Analysis on the macroscopic results ascertained that both dilatancy and contractancy phenomena could occur during creep. The magnitude of the dilatancy/contractancy during creep was guided by the test conditions: stress level and the over consolidation ratio, which specifically governed the direction of the volumetric strain variations. The results of SEM indicated that the microstructural evolution of the clay after the mechanical loading depend on the stress history. Afterwards, the structural evolution in creep phase depends on the structural pattern developed in monotonic loading

The pitaya or Cereus undatus pitaya or, synonymy: Hylocereus guatemalensis, H.undatus is exotic fruit consumption and slightly increasing in our country. The functional assignments given to this fruit, common sense encourages the study of their physical, chemical and microbiological. It should be noted that the fruits are primary sources of several vitamins and other bioactive compounds, for example, phenolic fibers, and sugars. The intake of these compounds increases the immunity of individuals, leading to improved levels of health, physical and mental performance. The reference values for these nutrients pitaya, also, are unknown to the general public, as this is a fruit intake of a wealthy class, for its price is too high for our Brazilian standards. In food matrices are very complex, given its inherent characteristics. Thus, there are several techniques used for quantitative analysis of bioactive compounds, among them, have a High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and UV-visible spectrophotometry. The objective of this study is to quantify the presence of vitamin C, anthocyanins and sugars in pitayas white and red pulp by HPLC, as well as to determine, although the content of antioxidant activity by the method of capturing the radical 2,2 '- azinobis ( 3-etilbenzenotiazolina-6-sulfonic acid - ABTS), soluble solids (? Brix) is determined in a digital refractometer, as well as acidity and pH. The soluble solids found can confirm that the samples of red pitaya have higher sugar content than the white pulp. The pH and total acidity (g citric acid/100g fruit), should also be monitored and analyzed, possibly under conditions of controlled cultivation of this food because it is an exotic fruit and consumption in our country recently. As for the results of anthocyanins, because it is a dye that rapidly degrades, its presence became insignificant, being found only in the halo of red pulp pitaya, requiring further analysis and monitoring standards in a more specific. There was a low antioxidant activity in the samples, as well as its content of vitamin C, these values should be found, first, the storage time, which decreases the levels of these analytes.
A pitaya ou Cereus undatus, sinon?mia: Hylocereus guatemalensis, H.undatus ? uma fruta ex?tica e de consumo ligeiramente crescente no nosso pa?s. As atribui??es funcionais dadas a essa fruta, pelo senso comum, incita ao estudo das suas caracter?sticas f?sicas, qu?micas e microbiol?gicas. Deve-se ressaltar que as frutas s?o fontes prim?rias de v?rias vitaminas e outros compostos bioativos, como por exemplo, os compostos fen?licos, fibras e a??cares. A ingest?o desses compostos aumenta a imunidade dos indiv?duos, induzindo a melhoria dos n?veis de sa?de, rendimento f?sico e mental. Os valores de refer?ncia desses nutrientes para a pitaya, ainda, s?o desconhecidos do grande p?blico, por ser esta uma fruta de consumo de uma classe abastada, por seu pre?o ser demasiadamente alto para os nossos padr?es brasileiros. As matrizes em alimentos s?o muito complexas, dadas as suas caracter?sticas intr?nsecas. Diante disso, v?rias s?o as t?cnicas utilizadas para determina??es anal?ticas de compostos bioativos, dentre elas, t?m-se a Cromatografia L?quida de Alta Efici?ncia (CLAE) e espectrofotometria U.V vis?vel. O objetivo deste trabalho ? quantificar a presen?a de vitamina C, antocianinas e a??cares nas pitayas de polpas branca e vermelha por CLAE, bem como, determinar, ainda, o teor de atividade antioxidante pelo m?todo de captura do radical 2,2?- azinobis (3-etilbenzenotiazolina-6-?cido sulf?nico ? ABTS), teores de s?lidos sol?veis (?Brix) determinado em um refrat?metro digital, al?m da acidez e pH. O teor de s?lidos sol?veis encontrados pode confirmar que as amostras de pitaya vermelha t?m maiores teores de a??cares que a de polpa branca. Quanto ao valor de pH e acidez total titul?vel (g de ?cido c?trico/100g de fruta), precisam, ainda, ser monitorados e analisados, possivelmente, sob condi??es de cultivo controlado desse alimento por se tratar de uma fruta ex?tica e de recente consumo no nosso pa?s. Quanto aos resultados das antocianinas, por se tratar de um corante que degrada rapidamente, a sua presen?a mostrou-se irris?ria, sendo encontrada somente no halo da pitaya de polpa vermelha, necessitando de mais an?lises e padroniza??es em condi??es mais espec?ficas de monitoramento. Houve baixa atividade antioxidante nas amostras analisadas, bem como o seu teor de vitamina C, esses valores encontrados devem-se, primeiramente, ao tempo de armazenamento, que diminui os teores desses analitos.

Abstract:
The following work presents an evaluation of the antimycobacterial activity (against Mycobacterium smegmatis) of the extracts, fractions and some phenolic compounds present in the leaves of Ficus benjamina L. and Ficus luschnathiana (Miq.) Miq., along with an estimation of the total phenolic content and the quantification of some of these compounds by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The phenolic estimation (Folin-Ciocalteu method) revealed that the crude extracts and the high polarity fractions from these extracts (ethyl acetate and n-butanol) are rich in polyphenols, although, its amount are not directly related to the antimycobacterial activity. The evaluation of this biological activity was performed by broth microdilution method, furnishing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the extracts, fractions and tested compounds. The better biological activity was verified with butanolic fraction from F. luschnathiana (MIC = 156,25 μg/mL) and ethyl acetate fraction from F. benjamina (MIC = 312,50 μg/mL). However, the correlation of these good results with specific compounds was not possible, since technical difficulties prevented the isolation of substances from these fractions; and concerning the screened polyphenols only quercetin was encountered in butanolic fraction. In addition, quercetin exerted weak antimycobacterial activity against M. smegmatis (MIC = 625,00 μg/mL), much weaker than that observed for the fraction. The other investigated standards that were encountered in the extracts and fractions (caffeic and chlorogenic acids, rutin and kaempferol), also exhibited weak inhibitory effect. Thus, the good antimycobacterial activity observed for the fractions above mentioned are probably not related to these phenolics, still it may be related to compounds of the same nature. Many polyphenols, such as flavonoids, have been reported as mycobacterial growth inhibitors, thus it is also possible to conclude that the structural characteristics of quercetin, rutin and kaempferol do not support the biological activity studied.
A seguinte dissertação apresenta uma avaliação da atividade antimicobacteriana (frente à Mycobacterium smegmatis) de extratos, frações e substâncias fenólicas presentes nas folhas de Ficus benjamina L. e Ficus luschnathiana (Miq.) Miq., juntamente com uma estimativa do teor de polifenóis totais e a quantificação de alguns destes compostos por Cromatografia Líquida de Alta Eficiência (CLAE). O doseamento de polifenóis (método de Folin-Ciocalteu) revelou que os extratos brutos e as frações mais polares destes extratos (acetato de etila e n-butanol) são bastante providos de substâncias fenólicas, ainda que este teor não esteja diretamente relacionado à atividade antimicobacteriana. A avaliação desta atividade biológica foi realizada por método de microdiluição em caldo, que fornece a concentração inibitória mínima (CIM) dos extratos, frações e substâncias testadas. Uma boa atividade inibitória foi constatada para a fração butanólica de F. luschnathiana (MIC = 156,25 μg/mL) e para a fração acetato de etila de F. benjamina (MIC = 312,50 μg/mL). Entretanto, não foi possível correlacionar estes bons resultados a compostos em específico, visto que por dificuldades técnicas não foi realizado o isolamento de substâncias destas frações; e dos polifenóis pesquisados, somente a quercetina foi encontrada na fração butanólica. Esta por sua vez apresentou fraca atividade inibitória sobre M. smegmatis (MIC = 625,00 μg/mL), inferior a própria fração. Outros padrões investigados e que foram encontrados nos extratos e frações (ácidos cafeico e clorogênico, rutina e canferol), também apresentaram fraca atividade antimicobacteriana. Desta forma, a boa atividade inibitória das frações citadas acima possivelmente não se deve a estes polifenóis, ainda que possa estar relacionada a substâncias de natureza semelhante. Diversos polifenóis, como os flavonóides, têm sido reportados como inibidores do crescimento de micobactérias, de forma que também se pode concluir que as características estruturais da quercetina, rutina e canferol não favoreçam esta atividade biológica aqui apresentada.

Abstract:
Este trabalho aborda a espécie Pothomorphe umbellata (L.) Miq. (Piperaceae), conhecida popularmente como pariparoba. Nos últimos anos foram atribuídas diversas atividades a essa espécie, entre elas uma potente atividade antioxidante, atividade anti-inflamatória e ainda inibição in vitro do crescimento de Helicobacter pylori. Tais estudos tornam interessante a investigação da atividade antiúlcera e dos principais grupos de compostos que possam ser relacionados à esta ação, sendo estes os principais objetivos do trabalho. Para cumprir os objetivos propostos, foram utilizados diferentes modelos de ulceração gástrica em animais. Em modelo de indução por etanol acidificado, extratos brutos de folhas e raízes não inibiram significativamente a formação de lesões, porém frações do extrato de raízes conseguiram desempenho semelhante ao do lansoprazol. Em modelo de ligadura do piloro e indução por indometacina o extrato bruto de raízes (EB) não mostrou diferença em relação ao controle negativo. Em modelo de indução por ácido acético, o EB reduziu o tamanho, a presença de necrose e infiltrado inflamatório nas lesões. Com os resultados obtidos, é proposto que sua atividade esteja relacionada à capacidade antioxidante já relatada na literatura. Através de análise e separação por CLAE, foram identificadas três moléculas na fração mais ativa em relação à ação antiúlcera. Duas delas (piperumbellactamas A e B) já haviam sido descritas nessa espécie, porém nas partes aéreas. A terceira (caldensina) havia sido isolada de Piper caldense, e não foram encontrados na literatura relatos de sua ocorrência em P. umbellata. Para melhorar a solubilidade do extrato em água, foi preparada uma suspensão de nanocápsulas, que associou as substâncias mais apolares com sua matriz polimérica. Ao mesmo tempo, formou partículas de tamanho e índice de polidispersão adequados, indicando a viabilidade da formulação.
This work is based on a research of Pothomorphe umbellata (L.) Miq. (Piperaceae) extracts, popularly known as pariparoba. Through the past years, many activities have been attributed to this species, including strong antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory effect and in vitro growth inhibition of Helicobacter pylori. On that account, the investigation of the antiulcer activity and the research for related chemical compounds was proposed, trying to establish a relationship between these compounds and the activity. To accomplish the proposal, some distinct ulcer models (in rats) were used. The crude extracts from leaves and roots had no significant effect over mucosal damage when tested in acidified ethanol model. By contrast, some fractions from the roots extract showed similar performance when compared to lansoprazole. Also, the crude extract from roots (CE) was not different from water when tested in pylorus ligation and indomethacin induction models. When tested in acetic acid model, the CE significantly reduced the lesion area, the presence of necrosis and inflammatory infiltrate. With these results, a correlation between the antioxidant (previously reported) and antiulcer activities is suggested. The chemical analysis was performed through high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and three molecules were identified in the fraction which showed the stronger antiulcer activity. Two of them (piperumbellactam A and B) had been described in branches of this species. The third (caldensin) had been isolated from Piper caldense, and no record was found about its occurence in P. umbellata. In order to increase CE water solubility, a nanoparticles suspension was prepared. This formulation was able to associate the hydrophobic components to its polymeric matrix. At the same time, it exhibited adequate particle size and polydispersity index, indicating a viability of the formulation.

Abstract:
L’objectif de ces travaux consiste à développer de nouvelles briques de terre cuite à base d’agents porogènes biosourcés dans le but d’obtenir des matériaux à haute performance thermique. Les matières premières, argile et biomasse, ont d’abord été caractérisées de manière individuelle. L’utilisation de co-produits agricoles (paille de blé, tourteau de tournesol et farine de noyaux d’olive) en tant qu’agents porogènes pour l’obtention de briques de terre cuite porosées a ensuite été étudiée. L’intérêt d’ajouter des éléments biosourcés entraînant une augmentation de la porosité, une augmentation de la résistance thermique malgré une diminution des propriétés mécaniques a alors été démontré. Toutefois, des problèmes de plasticité causant des soucis de mise en forme au niveau des échantillons ont été identifiés. Après avoir optimisé le taux de sable, l’impact de la granulométrie des matières végétales ainsi que leur taux d’incorporation ont été évalués. Une porosité maximale de 34,4 %, constituée de macropores, a été obtenue dans les conditions expérimentales optimales conduisant à une conductivité thermique de 0,45 W/m.K, soit une diminution de 15 % par rapport à un échantillon de référence sans matière végétale. Afin de continuer à améliorer les propriétés du matériau argileux obtenu, il a ensuite été envisagé de créer une microporosité en modifiant chimiquement les matières végétales qui seraient ensuite dégradées lors de la cuisson. Pour cela, les matières végétales ont été modifiées soit par imprégnation directe de carbonates soit par greffage de nouvelles fonctions carbonates ou esters. Les matières ainsi modifiées ont ensuite été incorporées dans les formulation de terre cuite et les propriétés des matériaux obtenus ont été mesurées (physiques, mécanique et thermique). Enfin, l’impact environnemental potentiel des échantillons contenant des additifs modifiés a été étudié à travers une Analyse de Cycle de Vie. Les différents scénarios, simples (avec un seul agent porogène) ou combinés (avec un agent végétal et un agent de synthèse) ont été comparés avec la méthode ReCiPe. Les étapes présentant les impacts les plus importants ont été mises en exergue. Il a également été démontré que le choix de l’unité fonctionnelle pouvait modifier radicalement les conclusions de l’étude
The objective of this work is to develop new clay bricks with biobased pore-forming agents in order to obtain materials with high thermal performance. The raw materials, clay and biomass, were first characterized individually. The use of agricultural by-products (wheat straw, sunflower seed cake and olive stone flour) as pore-forming agents for the production of porous clay bricks was then studied. The benefits of the addition of biobased components that increase the porosity and the thermal resistance was demonstrated even if it results in a decrease of mechanical properties. However, problems of plasticity causing trouble during the extrusion of samples were identified. After optimizing the sand rate, the impact of the particle size of the biomass and the rate of incorporation were assessed. A maximum porosity of 34.4%, made up of macropores was obtained under optimal experimental conditions, leading to a thermal conductivity of 0.45 W/m.K, representing a decrease of 15 % compared to the reference brick without additive. In order to improve the properties of the resulting material, it was considered to create microporosity, thanks to the chemical modification of the vegetable materials that will be degraded during the firing process. For this, the agricultural by-products were modified either by direct impregnation of carbonates or by grafting of new chemical moieties (carbonate or ester). These modified matters were then incorporated into the clay formulation and the properties of the obtained bricks were measured (physical, mechanical and thermal ones). Finally, the potential environmental impact of the modified samples containing additives was studied through a Life Cycle Assessment. Different scenarios, simple (with one pore-forming agent) or combined (with a crude vegetable agent and a synthesized one) were compared with the ReCiPe method. The steps from the process with the most significant impacts were highlighted. It was also shown that the choice of the functional unit could radically alter the conclusions of the study

The mining industry is responsible for the generation of waste from their natural process of extraction. The mining impacts in urban areas are of special importance due to the high urban occupation, which are exacerbated due to the proximity of the mined areas and populated areas. Some solutions to wastedisposal have the potential to significantly reduce the environmental risks and liabilities, but represent higher costs in the stages of deployment and operation. The addition of mining waste as raw material in the development of commercial products reduces the environmental impacts, transforming the waste into a positive element in the generation of employment and income. This thesis studies the incorporation of waste iron ore in two clays, one from the ceramic industry of the City of Natal and the other from the ceramic industry of the Serid? Region, both in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Percentages of iron ore waste of 5%, 10% , 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% were used in the tested ceramic matrix. The two clays and the iron ore waste used as part of this investigation were characterized by X-ray diffraction tests, X-ray fluorescence tests, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and dilatometric analysis. The samples were sintered under temperatures of 850 ?C, 950 ?C and 1050?C at a heating rate of 5 ?C/min with isotherms of two hours. The following tests were performed with the samples: linear shrinkage, water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent density, mass loss in fire and bending resistance in order to obtain their physical and mechanical properties. An amount of 5% of waste iron ore in the matrix clay at a temperature of 850 0C resulted in na increase of about 65% in the tensile strength of the clay samples from the Natal ceramic industry. A linear shrinkage of only 0.12% was observed for the samples, which indicates that the physical properties of the final product were not influenced by the addition of the waste

Abstract:
En conditions de plein champ après retournement d'une prairie permanente, on compare pendant cinq ans l'évolution des propriétés d'un sol brun entre deux parcelles, l'une exempte de tout traitement chimique, l'autre désherbée à l'atrazine. On observe au cours du temps une diminution de la stabilité structurale (-30%) et de la teneur en matière organique (- 20%), ainsi qu'une augmentation du rapport isotopique ¹³C/¹²C, du taux d'humification et de l'extractibilité des acides humiques. Toutefois, l'étude des caractéristiques chimiques de la matière organique ne révèle pas de différence majeure entre les deux parcelles tout au long des cinq années. Un fractionnement des agrégats à 50 [micro]m permet de mettre en évidence une plus grande richesse en carbone de la fraction grossière (50-2000 [micro]m) du sol non désherbé par rapport au sol traité, qui peut être attribuée aux importants retours de matière organique fraiche par les adventices. Ces derniers n'affectent cependant pas les caractéristiques qualitatives des matières organiques totales ; ainsi le rapport C/N reste constant et identique dans les deux parcelles. L'analyse en spectroscopie d'absorption infra-rouge des acides humiques et fulviques extraits montre que les groupements fonctionnels des composés humifiés ne sont affectés de façon majeure ni par l'évolution générale du sol ni par le traitement à l'atrazine. Cependant, l'étude de la cinétique d'adsorption de l'atrazine met en évidence une diminution de la vitesse de mise à l'équilibre entre les échantillons les plus anciens et les plus récents. Par ailleurs, la comparaison de l'adsorption entre la fraction fine (0-50 [micro]m) et la fraction grossière (50-200 [micro]m) d'un même échantillon de sol montre que l'adsorption est moins rapide mais également moins réversible sur la fraction grossière. Ces différences de comportement rendent compte de variations très fines de la réactivité des matières organiques, et sont commentées en relation avec la structure hypothétique du complexe argilo-humique

Abstract:
Consolidation behaviour of fine grained soil is evaluated commonly by Terzaghi’s one dimensional linear elastic consolidation theory. It is based on several simplified assumptions. Out of these assumptions most important assumption is constant value of coefficient of consolidation Cv during the consolidation process. But it leads serious problems to the consolidation of soft clay like bentonite and bentonite –sand mixture. Since Terzaghi’s one dimensional consolidation theory gives good results for small strain problems. Hence in this study Terzaghi’s one dimensional consolidation theory is used for evaluating consolidation of pure bentonite and bentonite –sand mixture assuming constant value of coefficient of consolidation Cv for small range of effective stress. Variation of coefficient of consolidation with effective stress for different percentage of bentonite in sand is shown. Moreover variation of other consolidation properties like coefficient of compressibility av, coefficient of volume compressibility mv, compression index Cc with effective stress is determined and comparison of these properties for different clay content are made. Based on consolidation property permeability of clay is calculated indirectly for different percentage of clay. It is observed that permeability of clay increases with decrease in clay content.Based on consolidation properties graphs between average degree of consolidation and time factor is plotted and comparison is made for different percentage of clay. Rate of consolidation is compared here using the two transforms Fourier as well as Laurent and it is clear from the experiments that rate of consolidation is faster using Laurent transform.

Abstract:
Attractive particle interactions which lead to the hetero-aggregation or 'sliming' of silicate clay gangue and valuable sulphide mineral particles are encountered in a number of hydrometallurgical and flotation processes. Sliming leads to poor recovery of the valuable minerals and high recovery of the clay gangue minerals in flotation concentrates. In the present work, the hetero-aggregation mechanism of hydrophilic mica clay mineral sericite (or muscovite) and hydrophobic chalcocite was investigated by probing the particle interactions and the prevailing interfacial chemistry under dispersion conditions where the individual chalcocite and sericite particles displayed negative zeta potentials. The mitigation/suppression of the hetero-aggregation was examined via the prudent control of dispersion conditions and pulp chemistry (i.e., pH modification and solution speciation control) and the use of two, anionic, polymeric dispersants with different molecular weight and functionality (carboxylate-substituted polyacrylamide, Cyquest 3223 and sulphonate-substituted polymaleic acid, P80 co-polymers) as dispersants. The adsorption behaviour of both polymers onto both minerals under industrially relevant suspension conditions have been quantified in terms of the polymer adsorption density and the adsorbed layer characteristics. These interfacial layer properties which impact on the mineral particles' zeta potentials and interactions, and also underpin the dispersion efficacy of polymers were characterized, using interfacial and solution analytical methods and TM-AFM imaging analysis.

The discourse of this paper is focused on “clay/ Self / Contemplation of Collapse,” and is primarily concerned with exploring and analyzing the author’s creative processes of ceramic art, from first contact with this realm in 2005 to 2010. One’s own creative experiences are tapped to explore the micro views of creating ceramic art, as well as all the epiphanies, understandings, and discoveries. The state of “collapse” is used to analyze the works and to trace one’s own experiences and epiphanies, as well as related contexts and opportunities caused by the self and the immediate environment. Beginning from the processes of self-reflection and thoughts on the realization of creation, the turns of art are evaluated. Through the exploration of these various aspects, the author attempts to discover the direction of future creations, and further open the possibilities and development potentials of creating ceramic art; it is also used to view the self, develop the self, and create the self.

Abstract:
Einleitung: Steady-State- Muster-ERGs (PERGs) werden in der Glaukomfrühdiagnostik angewandt. Da die transienten PERG-Komponenten N35, P50 und N95 unter schnellen Reizbedingungen nicht zu erkennen sind, können bisher keine Aussagen über die Beteiligung einzelner Retinaschichten an der Reizantwort gemacht werden. Mit der Deconvolution-Methode (CLAD) wurden 2004 akustisch evozierte transiente Antworten aus hochfrequenten Messungen entfaltet. In dieser Arbeit wird CLAD beim PERG validiert um herauszufinden, ob bei Messungen mit hohen Reizfrequenzen deutliche transiente Antworten entfaltet werden. Methodik: Es wurden 3 Reizbedingungen mit nicht-isochronen Stimuli der mittleren Frequenz 16,7 rps verglichen. Der Abstand zwischen 2 Stimuli variierte zwischen 15 und 105 ms, 30 und 90 ms oder 45 und 75 ms, der mittlere Abstand betrug jedoch immer 60 ms. Als Referenz wurden konventionelle transiente (1,4 rps) und Steady-State-Messungen (16,7 rps) durchgeführt. Um sie zu validieren, wurden in einem zweiten Schritt aus den transienten CLAD-Steady-State-Antworten synthetisiert und diese mit der Steady-State-Referenzmessung verglichen. Ergebnisse: Die große Übereinstimmung der synthetisierten Steady-State-Antworten mit der Referenzmessung im Bezug auf Amplitude und –Kurvenform bestätigte, dass die entfalteten transienten Antworten „trotz“ Abweichungen von konventionellen PERG-Antworten plausibel sind. Allerdings hatte der konkrete Stimulusabstand Einfluss auf die PERG-Antwort: die Amplituden der 3 CLAD-Reizbedingungen wichen signifikant voneinander ab. Diskussion: Diese Studie zeigte, dass durch CLAD transiente Reizantworten aus Messungen hoher Frequenz gewonnen werden können. Ob der Einsatz von CLAD Vorteile in der Glaukomfrühdiagnostik erbringt und der exakte retinale Ursprung der Antwortkomponenten ist in künftigen Studien zu validieren. Durch CLAD könnte es in Zukunft möglich werden, auf elektrophysiologischem Wege den Beitrag einzelner Retinaschichten bei Retinapathologien genauer aufzuzeigen.

Abstract:
Die Tonscherbe mit der Inventarnummer 1270 ist das zentrale Stück der Vitrine im Schriftenraum, das im Ägyptischen Museum der Universität Leipzig die demotische Sprache und Schrift repräsentiert. Sie ist neben knapp 20 weiteren Objekten Zeuge dieser Sprachstufe des Ägyptischen, die zwischen dem siebten vorchristlichen und fünften nachchristlichen Jahrhundert in Ägypten geschrieben und gesprochen wurde, so zum Beispiel zur Zeit Kleopatras VII. Es handelt sich dabei um eine komplizierte, von rechts nach links zu lesende Kursive. Nur wenige Forscher weltweit sind in der Lage, die Zeichen zu entziffern, die stark durch individuelle Handschriften geprägt sind. In Demotisch liegen uns neben großen Werken der Weltliteratur wie die Setna-Romane oder magische Handbücher auch Zeugnisse des Alltagslebens vor. Darunter sind Schülerübungen, Einkaufslisten, Ehe- und Scheidungsurkunden oder auch komplexe Gerichtsdokumente zu nennen. Diese geben uns einen Einblick in Wirtschaft, Recht und Verwaltung in die Lebensweise der Bevölkerung Ägyptens vor 2000 Jahren.
