The Brazilian Symposium on Programming Languages (SBLP) is the main event in South America devoted to programming languages. Its scope includes all aspects of programming languages, including language design and implementation, formal semantics, domain-specific languages, and theoretical foundations of programming languages. The Symposium is a yearly event supported by the Brazilian Computer So...

conclusions the results of the present study indicate that brazilian propolis demonstrated in vitro anti-microbial efficacy against s. mutans and c. albicans. results the antimicrobial efficacy of hexidine against s. mutans and e. coli was higher compared to that of c. albicans. the brazilian propolis (p) mr showed antimicrobial action against s. mutans and c. albicans. the antimicrobial effica...

in this paper, after collecting the rock samples from eight mines and one high way slope, the tests for determination of dry density, uniaxial compressive strength, tensile strength (brazilian test), elastic modulus, schmidt hammer rebound number have been done on samples. in addition, in order to calculating the mean size of rock grains, quartz content, hardness and abrasivity, a thin sections...

--Tree crew supervisors in 48 California cities were asked what problems they encounter with the five most common trees along their streets. The top five trees of the 20 most often named were sweetgum, Modesto ash, southern magnolia, planetree, and Chinese or lacebark elm. Major problems reported included root damage to sidewalks and curbs, growth of suckers from the root crown, exceptionally f...

The tensile strength of rocks plays a noteworthy role in their failure mechanism, and its determination can be beneficial in optimizing the design of the rock structures. Schistose rocks due to their inherent anisotropy in different foliation directions show a diverse strength at each direction. The purpose of this work was to compare and assess the tensile strength of phyllite, which was obtai...

cracked and un-cracked brazilian disc specimens subjected to diametral compression were used for conducting fracture toughness and tensile strength experiments on a polymer concrete (pc) material. the value of mode i fracture toughness (kic) was determined from the center- cracked brazilian disc and the indirect tensile strength (σt) was obtained from the un-cracked brazilian disc specimen. the...

considering the fact that rocks fail faster under tensile stress, rock tensile strength is of greatimportance in applications such as blasting, rock fragmentation, slope stability, hydraulic fracturing,caprock integrity, and geothermal energy extraction. there are two direct and indirect methods tomeasure tensile strength. since direct methods always encompass difficulties in test setup, indire...

the cracked brazilian disc (cbd) specimen is widely used in order to determine mode-i/ii and mixed-mode fracture toughness of a rock medium. in this study, the stress intensity factor (sif) on the crack-tip in this specimen is calculated for various geometrical crack conditions using the extended-finite element method (x-fem). this method is based upon the finite element method (fem). in this m...
