Unveiling cryptic diversity: integrative taxonimy discovers eight new species of moths and exposes biodiversity shortfalls in a Neotropical region

Abstract: The genus Eois Hübner (Geometridae: Larentiinae) is a highly diverse Neotropical lineage comprising 257 valid species, yet it has never been comprehensively revised. Previous studies indicate that wing polymorphism in several nominal taxa hides potential cryptic species, a pattern supported by COI data, host plant preferences, and female genitalia Leia mais…

Evaluation of crude oil and vegetable oil sorption by polyrethane composities with different concentrations of Imperata Brasiliensis fiber

Abstract: This study proposes the development of sustainable polyurethane (PU) composites based on castor oil, reinforced with Brazilian satintail fibers (Imperata brasiliensis), aiming at their application as sorbent materials for the removal of oils in contaminated environments. Formulations with different fiber contents were prepared to investigate the impact on the Leia mais…

Chemical characterization of toxic elements in plastic utensils: key insights and health impacts

Abstract: Toxic elements (arsenic,cadmium,lead,andmercury) are public health concerns and listed as priority pollutants for their severe toxic effects, especially in children, whose biological systems are developing. The aim of this study was to determine the concentrations of toxic elements (As,Cd,Pb,andHg) in plastic utensils using x-ray fluorescence and pecific migration tests. Leia mais…

Unsupervised aspect-based sentimento analysisthrough LLM: a case study of na unlabeled portuguese beer database

Abstract: This study investigates the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) to Unsupervised Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) in Portuguese, focusing on consumer reviews of Brazilian beers. We construct a novel domain-specific dataset comprising nearly 60,000 filtered reviews collected from a major Brazilian beer forum, along with a manually annotated gold-standard Leia mais…

Industry 4.0 design principles in continuous production processes: a case study

Abstract: This study investigates the application of Industry 4.0 design principles in a continuous production environment, specifically in an iron grinding plant. The research aims to understand how principles such as interconnection, information transparency, technical assistance, decentralized decisions, and sustainability, are implemented in the mining sector, and to identify the Leia mais…

Análise de políticas nos campos de ambiente construído e energia: resultados do subprograma 2 do OblegisPPDS

Resumo: A Assembleia Legislativa do Estado de São Paulo – Alesp, por meio do Instituto do Legislativo Paulista – ILP, desenvolve, em parceria com o Instituto de Pesquisas Tecnológicas de São Paulo – IPT, o Projeto Observatório de Políticas Públicas e Desenvolvimento Sustentável – OBLegisPPDS, no âmbito do Acordo de Leia mais…

Initial formation of a metallic coating inclod spray: a molecular dynamics study

Abstract: Cold spray (CS) is a solid-state technique for producing metallic coatings through high-velocity powder particle deposition. In this work, large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to model the sequential impact of gold particles to investigate the deformation behavior of the particles and the evolution of their microstructure during Leia mais…

Tree roots characterization through spectral analysis and machine learning of ground penetrating radar data

Abstract: Spectral analysis of data acquired using ground penetrating radar (GPR) allows for the evaluation of the amplitudes and frequencies associated with reflections generated by subsurface materials and their interaction with electromagnetic waves. This interaction produces a unique response for each material type. In this study, we tested two widely Leia mais…
