Análise de ordem de uma bancada experimental aplicada ao estudo de rotores

In this work the main concepts to apply to dynamic signal analysis technique for rotating machines known as order analysis, discussing their characteristics and applying it on an experimental test rig. It aims to characterize the dynamic behavior of experimental test rig in run up and run down tests, it's operational speed range and the identification of the critical speed of shaft rotation. The results of the critical speed and stationary natural frequency of the shaft are discussed

Utilização da função Desirability em um processo de fundição de aço ABNT 1030

This dissertation addresses the main theme the use of desirability tool in optimizing a process with multiple response variables. The current scenario of strong bids to conquer the consumer market makes it necessary to develop improvements for better process performance as a whole, is to cut costs, increase efficiency or effectiveness. Thus, the use of methods to assist in this process is becoming increasingly feasible. This study used the MINITAB program and the data of the doctoral thesis of Dr. Luiz Henrique Dias Alves, in order to compare the results obtained in both studies. As a result, after applying the desirability method, simulated to optimize two responses variables regarding the formation of voids related to solidification in ABNT 1030 steel casting process. Thus, it was possible to evaluate the behavior of the variables with the variation of parameters of the desirability function
