Design of isolated footings of circular form using a new model
Rojas, Arnulfo Luevanos Techno-Press 2014 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.52 No.4
This paper presents the design of reinforced concrete circular footings subjected to axial load and bending in two directions using a new model. The new model considers the soil real pressure acting on contact surface of the circular footings and these are different, with a linear variation in the contact area, these pressures are presented in terms of the axial load, moments around the axis "X" and the axis "Y". The classical model takes into account only the maximum pressure of the soil for design of footings and it is considered uniform at all points of contact area. Also, a comparison is presented in terms of the materials used (steel and concrete) between the two models shown in table, being greater the classical model with respect the new model. Therefore, the new model is the most appropriate, since it is more economic and also is adjusted to real conditions.
Zeolite Synthesis in FluorideMedia: Structure Directiontoward ITW by Small Methylimidazolium Cations
Rojas, Alex,Martí,nez-Morales, Evangelina,Zicovich-Wilson, Claudio M.,Camblor, Miguel A. American Chemical Society 2012 JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY - Vol.134 No.4
<P>Pure silica ITW zeolite can be synthesized using 1,2,3-trimethylimidazoliumand 1,3-dimethylimidazolium cations and fluoride anions as structure-directingagents (SDAs). Similarly to the previously reported 1,3,4-trimethylimidazolium,the dimethyl cation can also produce the zeolite TON, but this higherframework density phase finally transforms <I>in situ</I> into ITW. The structures of the as-made and calcined phases preparedwith the new cations show a unit cell doubling along <I>z</I>, and the refined structures are reported. Periodic Density FunctionalTheory calculations provide the energies of the six SDA-ITW and SDA-TONzeolites, and their relative stabilities fully agree with the experimentalobservations. Structure-direction in this system is discussed fromexperimental and theoretical results that give strong support to theidea that strained silica frameworks are made possible in fluoridemedia by decreasing the covalent character of the Si–O bond.This decreased covalency is enhanced with the 1,2,3-trimethyl isomer,which is shown to be the strongest SDA for ITW and, at the same time,is the more hydrophilic of the three SDAs tested. Our observationswith the three SDAs agree with the so-called Villaescusa’srule, i.e., the low framework density phase is favored at higher concentrations,but at the same time question the supersaturation hypothesis thathas been proposed to explain this rule, since here the low-densityphase is the most stable one.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/jacsat/2012/jacsat.2012.134.issue-4/ja209832y/production/images/medium/ja-2011-09832y_0002.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/ja209832y'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>

Thymus vulgaris L. is widely used as an ingredient in cooking and in herbal medicine. However, there is little information about its toxicity. The present study was performed to evaluate the acute and repeated 28-day oral dose toxicity of thyme essential oil in rats. For the acute toxicity test, two groups of three rats were used. The rats received a single dose of essential oil: 300 or 2,000 mg/kg of body weight (bw). The rats were observed individually during the first four hours, and then daily until day 14. For the toxicity test with repeated doses, four groups of 10 rats were used. Doses of 100, 250, and 500 mg/kg/day were tested for 28 days. At the end of the experiment, blood was collected and the animals were sacrificed. Histopathological examination showed that in the lungs of rats given the 2,000 mg/kg bw dose, polymorph nuclear infiltrates, hemosiderin macrophages, and interstitial space thickening were present. In the repeated dose study, all rats survived the 28-day treatment period and apparently showed no signs of toxicity. The hematological and biochemical parameters were not altered. The histopathological study of the organs showed severe changes in the lung, with the dose of 500 mg/kg/day; in the other organs, no alterations were observed or the changes were slight. The body weight was only altered in male rats given the 500 mg/kg dose. The relative weight of the organs did not show any significant changes. Our studies revealed that the essential oil of Thymus vulgaris has moderate oral toxicity according to the results of the acute test, whereas the results of the 28-day oral toxicity test suggest that the no-observed-adverse effect level (NOAEL) is greater than 250 mg/kg/day.
Clavulanic Acid Is a Leading Culprit Beta-Lactam in Immediate Allergic Reactions to Penicillins
Torres-Rojas Isabel,Pérez-Alzate Diana,Somoza Maria Luisa,Pfeifer Ana Prieto-Moreno,Diaz Elisa Haroun,Jimenez-Rodriguez Teodorikez W,Sánchez Javier Fernández,Ruano Francisco J,Blanca Miguel,Blanca-Lóp 대한천식알레르기학회 2023 Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Research Vol.15 No.2
Purpose: Clavulanate, a beta-lactam associated with amoxicillin, is frequently prescribed in patients at all ages. Recent data implicate amoxicillin-clavulanate in up to 80% of beta-lactam allergy cases. We assessed clavulanate’s role in inducing allergic reactions to this combination treatment, with a focus on selective immediate reactions. Methods: Adults (≥ 16 years) reporting a history of immediate reactions to amoxicillin-clavulanate were evaluated through a beta-lactam allergological workup, using modified European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology guidelines. Patients first underwent skin testing, and if negative, drug provocation tests. Expected outcomes were: Group A, subjects with immediate reaction to classical penicillin group determinants (penicilloyl polylysine, minor determinants mixture, and/or penicillin G); Group B, subjects with selective immediate reaction to amoxicillin; Group C, subjects with selective immediate reaction to clavulanate and Group D, those immediate reactions with co-sensitization to clavulanate plus penicillin group determinants or amoxicillin. Results: Of 1,170 included patients, 104 had immediate reactions: 36.5% to penicillin group determinants (Group A), 26.9% to amoxicillin (Group B), 32.7% to clavulanate (Group C), and 3.8% to clavulanate plus penicillin determinants or amoxicillin (Group D). Diagnosis was made by skin testing in 79%, 75% and 47% of the patients, respectively, in the first 3 groups (P < 0.001). Drug provocation tests were necessary to establish most other diagnoses. Anaphylaxis predominated over urticaria/angioedema in all groups. Conclusions: Selective immediate reactions to clavulanate accounted for over a third of cases with confirmed reactions after amoxicillin-clavulanate intake, with more than half experiencing anaphylaxis. Within this group, skin test sensitivity was below 50%. People taking amoxicillin-clavulanate may also be co-sensitized to both drugs.
Adaptive force/position control of robot manipulators with bounded inputs
Lina Rojas-García,Isela Bonilla-Gutiérrez,Marco Mendoza-Gutiérrez,César Chávez-Olivares 대한기계학회 2022 JOURNAL OF MECHANICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.36 No.3
In various automated industrial, medical, or service applications using robotic systems it is required to regulate both robot movement and contact force. In order to address this control problem, this paper presents a force/position control structure that has two characteristics that are very relevant in robot-environment interaction tasks. First, the structure of the controller is based on the use of generalized saturation functions, and this makes it possible to ensure that the robot actuators operate within a safe region without exceeding their torque limits. On the other hand, an adaptable term is included within the structure that allows to compensate for parametric uncertainty related to gravitational forces and the stiffness of the environment on which the robot operates. The validity and correct performance of the proposed control structure is based on a rigorous stability analysis, as well as numerical simulations using a three-degree-of-freedom robot manipulator.
A new model for T-shaped combined footings part II: Mathematical model for design
Luevanos-Rojas, Arnulfo,Lopez-Chavarria, Sandra,Medina-Elizondo, Manuel Techno-Press 2018 Geomechanics & engineering Vol.14 No.1
The first part shows the optimal contact surface for T-shaped combined footings to obtain the most economical dimensioning on the soil (optimal area). This paper presents the second part of a new model for T-shaped combined footings, this part shows a the mathematical model for design of such foundations subject to axial load and moments in two directions to each column considering the soil real pressure acting on the contact surface of the footing with one or two property lines restricted, the pressure is presented in terms of an axial load, moment around the axis "X" and moment around the axis "Y" to each column, and the methodology is developed using the principle that the derived of the moment is the shear force. The classic model considers an axial load and a moment around the axis "X" (transverse axis) applied to each column, i.e., the resultant force from the applied loads is located on the axis "Y" (longitudinal axis), and its position must match with the geometric center of the footing, and when the axial load and moments in two directions are presented, the maximum pressure and uniform applied throughout the contact surface of the footing is considered the same. To illustrate the validity of the new model, a numerical example is presented to obtain the design for T-shaped combined footings subjected to an axial load and moments in two directions applied to each column. The mathematical approach suggested in this paper produces results that have a tangible accuracy for all problems.
