Full textThe objective of the thesis work is to study the magnetic field configuration for faculae, active regions, filaments and initiation of solar eruptive events, flares and CMEs. Data obtained coordinated campaigns with THEMIS, Hinode and other instruments have allowed us to study faculae, filaments and active regions. The polarimetry analysis of THEMIS/MTR and Hinode/SOT data gives consistent results using UNNOFIT or MELANIE inversion codes. It allows us to detect fine vertical flux tubes in faculae. Using active regions magnetic vector map as the boundary conditions, we constructed the 3 D magnetic field structure of active regions with a nonlinear force-free field optimization method. The force and torque in the observed vector fields have been minimized to construct a consistent bottom boundary condition for the nonlinear force-free field model. Twisted magnetic flux ropes along the polarity inversion line have been evidenced. Conditions related to shear and twist of flux ropes have been discussed in the frame of flare and eruption initiation and developement

Full textThe paper presents the study of concentration photovoltaic and thermal system, carried out during the three years of Phd. The first part of thesis analyzes and compares the effects of the secondary optics on the performance of a triple junction solar cell. Are set up two bench test, an indoor bench test and an outdoor one. The cells are triple junction III-V and they have a circular shape with an active area of 4.15 mm2. In addition, two different solutions for the 3J cell receiver are tested, the Insulated Metal Substrate technology (IMS) and the Direct Bonded Copper (DBC). The optics consists of a primary Fresnel lens with constant pitch, used only with outdoor bench test, and a refractive secondary optic (RTP) made of dielectric material. Maximum efficiency achieved about 30% on indoor bench, and 17% in outdoor bench, mainly due to low Fresnel lens efficiency. During the research project monitoring the performance of two 3,5 kWp CPV devices under real outdoor operating conditions, took place. The overall AC electrical efficiency has a peak of 31% and the maximum electric production is 2.7 kW. The effect of lens fouling has a much higher impact: a clean lens allows to produce about 19% more power and efficiency increases by 5%, at equal solar irradiation. The tracking mechanism has proved, in the worst case, an inaccuracy of 0.26° which is lower than the acceptance angle of the optics (0.4°). Concurrently, an extensive test campaign has been carried out of a 2.5 kWt Concentrated Solar Thermal Power system. The experimental analysis allowed to prove that the overall plant performance and the optical efficiency were high. In particular, the daily energy production and the plant efficiency reached a peak value of about 22.5 kWh and 71.71%. The plant output has also been investigated using an analytical model previously developed to support the prototype design. In general, the simulation results were in good agreement with the experimental data.

Full textIn this work is proposed an asymmetrical (elliptical-circular) weir with two points of discontinuity only, with geometrical parameters associated to the specific design discharge, allowing the standardization, and whose hydraulic characteristics (water profile, pressures and discharge coefficient) may be theoretically determinate. Their hydraulic characteristics, developed by a system of partial differential equations, system allowing the development of a computational model to determine the theoretical values of the weir hydraulic characteristics. The validation of these theoretical values of the weir hydraulic characteristics, obtained by a computational model, was made by the comparison between the values of water profile, pressures, discharge coefficient and critical depth obtained by the theoretical model and the values obtained by the physical model.

Full textThe brief observa on of contemporary ci es reveals a disintegrated and disturbing reality, characterized by deafening noises. In this context, the architect possesses dispropor onate design freedom. The lack of appropriate formal criteria combined with the absence of an Aesthe c frame and historical reference allows him to create from “nothing” and start from a clean sheet of paper. This process of design has resulted in the concep on of arbitrary objects, where random forms have li le, (and some mes no rela onship with architecture. The banality of the design process and the necessity to reestablish solid founda ons for architecture mo vate this thesis. Le Corbusier had previously discussed that disorder causes the “uneasiness of the spirit”. The impossibility of visual percep on of the concept order reinforces the disciplinary crisis of contemporary architecture. Therefore, the primary objec ve of this research is the inves ga on of the quality defi ned as formal clarity, a design criteria capable of contribu ng to the visual percep on of order and the iden fi ca on of formality. This research is organized upon the basic principles of architecture. Form, understood as an organized structure derived from a system of rela ons between the parts and the whole. Architecture, defi ned as the formal synthesis of the program’s necessi es, the sugges ons of the place and discipline of construc on. These two concepts are fundamental in the inves ga on of formal structure and the design aspects that contribute to order and formal clarity. The bibliographic analysis and the observa on of architecture projects contributed to the iden fi ca on of three essen al and complementary criteria: Universality, systema city and tectonics. Architectural projects by the modern Swiss architects Werner Frey and Jacques Schader and the contemporary Spanish architect Javier García-Solera, illustrate and reinforce the principles addressed by the research and collaborate in the construc on of an aesthe c and historical repertoire of solu ons. The iden fi ca on and understanding of formal order and clarity are considered fundamental for the reestablishment of intellectual and visual capacity in architecture. Only thus, endowed with aesthe c judgment, will the architect be able to move away from contemporary design banality and produce coherent architecture with formal iden ty.

Full textDen här rapporten är en del i den andra fasen av Solaris-projektet, där målet är att utveckla en solcellsdriven obemannad flygande farkost (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV). Den andra fasen omfattar konstruktionen och optimeringen av farkosten (flygplanet). En av de viktigaste byggstenarna i den här fasen är fastställandet av vingprofilens form och design, det vill säga valet av vingprofil. Målet med den här rapporten är att helt och hållet bestämma vilken vingprofil som ska användas på flygplanet, samt en presentation av dess karakteristiska egenskaper. Detta har gjorts i jämförelse med andra liknande vingprofiler. Verktyget som använts för denna jämförelse heter XFOIL. Programmet är utvecklat av professor Mark Drela på MIT i USA, och är gjort för analysering av vingprofiler. Det här har gjorts i rapporten: Jämförelse mellan en mängd olika potentiella vingprofiler. En vinnarprofil har valts ut. Jämförelse mellan vinnarprofilen och en vanlig (non-reflexed trailing edge) vingprofil. Beräkning av de moment som krävs för att styra klaffar och roder.

Full textThe objectives of this thesis are, first of all, to make an inventory of ground-based observations of the solar diameter variations, not only temporal but also latitudinal. These last variations reflect surface distortions which are induced by the underlying physical properties (shearing, friction). The quality of ground-based measurements depends on the state of the atmospheric turbulence, which affects the precision. Our team is thus engaged in the construction of a microsatellite, PICARD, of which one of its main objectives is the data analysis algorithms that are necessary to achieve the required high degree of precision. The solar diameter measurements being photometric, any contamination of the solar limb due to the presence of surface magnetic phenomena, such as spots or faculae, affects the precision of the measurements. My work consisted in establishing an algorithm for an automatic control of these phenomena at the solar edge, algorithm which will be then introduced into the future PICARD Date processing. In order to establish this algorithm, a specific and versatile instrumentation, MIRESOL, has been developed. In parallel, in order to physically explain the solar distortions, I established a new theory, based on the thermal wind. Lastly, a final chapter exposes preliminary calculations concerning the possible links between the variations of the solar diameter and the global temperature of the Earth. We show that there is undoubtedly a connection which is through the luminosity variations of the Sun

Full textThe magnetic field in the quiet solar chromosphere is concentrated along the lanes of the super-granular network. From this chromospheric network magnetic funnels emerge, and rapidly expand with height through the transition region and finally fill the wholecorona. In this context We examined properties of line profiles from the solar corona acquired with the UV spectrometer SUMER on board SOHO. We establish that the maximum outflow at low corona temperatures does not appear in the centre of the network but rather near network boundaries. Furthermore the maximum blue-shift seems to appear in the dark regions in line intensity from the corona. For very low intensities, correlations reveals a lack of energy to either accelerate the plasma or produce any detectable radiation. The absence of magnetic field concentration in these regions seems to confirm the lack of energy. To study the properties of such magnetic funnels and the role of the coronal heating, we employed a new 2D MHD time dependent model including the solar atmosphere all the way from the chromosphere to the corona. These results indicate that the maximumoutflow is not to be found in the very center of the funnel but in the vicinity of the center for one of the heating function, this is not thecase of the second. The model directly relate for the first time the form of the heating function to the thermodynamic and spectral properties of the plasma in a funnel

Lectins are proteins that bind to specific mono or oligosaccharides. This interaction with carbohydrates makes of the lectins valuable tools for biotechnological applicattions. The aim of this study was, therefore, to partially characterize the red alga marine Solieria filiformis lectin (SfL) and investigate its effect in depression experimental models. The SfL was isolated by extraction with Tris-HCl buffer 25 mM (pH 7,5), precipitation with ammonium sulfate (70%) and chromatographies in DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-100 matrices. Subsequently, was characterized by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, followed by evaluation of its effect in the central nervous system, using behavioral tests for screening of anxiolytic and antidepressant agents, such as the open field, elevated plus maze, hole-board, tail suspension and forced swimming tests. For these tests, male Swiss mice (n = 6-10) were pretreated with SfL (1, 3 or 9 mg/kg; iv.). Since the SfL showed significant antidepressant effect, it was evaluated the monoaminergic system involvement in this effect, and, for this, forced swimming tests were performed, using specific antagonists. Posteriorly, it was analyzed the SfL effect (9 mg/kg; iv.) in depression model induced by administration of the Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS – 0,5 mg/kg; i.p.), through prevention and reversion protocols. Finally, the SfL antioxidant capacity was evaluated, through lipid peroxidation, reduced glutathione (GSH) and nitrite dosages in the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and striatum of the mice. As experiments positive controls, imipramine (10 or 30 mg/kg; ip.), bupropion (30 mg/kg) and fluoxetine (35 mg/kg) were used. As result, the CD analysis revealed that the SfL is composed, predominantly, by β-sheet, and the behavioral screening showed that the SfL has antidepressant-like effect, without psychostimulant and anxiolytic effects. Its action mechanism in the depression seems to involve the dopaminergic system and its ability to contain the oxidative stress in the analyzed brain areas. Additionally, the SfL was able to prevent and reverse the behavioral and neurochemical changes induced by LPS, confirming, thus, its potential antidepressant. Like this, this study suggests that, in depression experimental models, the SfL has antidepressant-like effect, and may, therefore, to represent a potential therapeutic agent for the depression treatment.
Lectinas são proteínas que se ligam a mono ou oligossacarídeos específicos. Essa interação com carboidratos faz das lectinas valiosas ferramentas para aplicações biotecnológicas. O objetivo desse trabalho foi, portanto, caracterizar parcialmente a lectina da alga marinha vermelha Solieria filiformis (LSf) e investigar o seu efeito em modelos experimentais de depressão. A LSf foi isolada por extração com tampão Tris-HCl 25mM, pH 7,5, precipitação com sulfato de amônio (70%) e cromatografias sequenciais em matrizes de DEAE-celulose e Sephadex G-100. Posteriormente, foi caracterizada por espectroscopia de dicroísmo circular (DC), seguida da avaliação de seu efeito no sistema nervoso central, utilizando testes comportamentais para a triagem de agentes ansiolíticos e antidepressivos, tais como os testes do campo aberto, do labirinto em cruz elevado, da placa perfurada, de suspensão de cauda e do nado forçado. Para esses testes, camundongos Swiss machos (n = 6-10) foram pré-tratados com a LSf (1, 3 ou 9 mg/kg; iv.). Uma vez que a LSf apresentou efeito antidepressivo relevante, avaliou-se o envolvimento do sistema monoaminérgico nesse efeito, e, para isso, foram realizados testes do nado forçado, utilizando antagonistas específicos. Posteriormente, analisou-se o efeito da LSf (9 mg/kg; iv.) em modelo de depressão induzida pela administração do lipopolissacarídeo de Escherichia coli (LPS – 0,5 mg/kg; ip.), através de protocolos de prevenção e reversão. Por fim, a capacidade antioxidante da LSf foi avaliada através das dosagens de peroxidação lipídica, glutationa reduzida (GSH) e nitrito no córtex pré-frontal, hipocampo e corpo estriado dos camundongos. Como controles positivos dos experimentos, foram utilizados imipramina (10 ou 30 mg/kg; ip.), bupropiona (30 mg/kg; ip.) e fluoxetina (35 mg/kg; ip.). Como resultados, a análise por DC revelou que a LSf é composta, predominantemente, por folhas-β, e a triagem comportamental mostrou que LSf possui efeito antidepressivo-símile, sem efeitos psicoestimulante e ansiolítico. Seu mecanismo de ação na depressão parece envolver o sistema dopaminérgico e a sua capacidade de conter o estresse oxidativo nas áreas cerebrais analisadas. Adicionalmente, a LSf foi capaz de prevenir e reverter as alterações comportamentais e neuroquímicas induzidas pelo LPS, confirmando, assim, o seu potencial antidepressivo. Assim, o presente trabalho sugere que, em modelos experimentais de depressão, a LSf possui efeito antidepressivo-símile, podendo, portanto, representar um potencial agente terapêutico para o tratamento da depressão.
