The self-evaluation is increasingly necessary in a competitive environment, and a way for companies to self-evaluate is through your budget. Knowing the importance of this budgetary process, this study aimed to observe and analyze the developing process of a zero-based budgeting (ZBB) highlighting its best practices and difficulties and propose recommendations for other companies in general. This goal was achieved through a case study in an area responsible for the budgeting process in the customer services department from a white-goods company. Also was required to review the literature regarding the customer services area, waste reduction, cost management, budgets in general and the zero-based budgeting. After reviewing the literature and the study, we can highlight good practices and difficulties observed in the studied company, and also propose recommendations on how to develop a zero-based budget and evidence what plans, analyzes and justifications are essential in a good budget process execution

Load transportation in brazilian territory is made difficult by a deficient highway network, result of low maintenance and lack of government supervision. The problem aggravates when we consider the transportation of indivisible loads, mainly because the brazilian highways are not prepared for such task and few companies in Brazil have the necessary equipment suited for this kind of transport. In this dissertation it will be shown the analysis of a specific equipment to transport overweight indivisible loads, called hydraulic modular multi axle trailer. From an existing project (RB.04LE-01), manufactured and homologated in Brazil, it has been studied how the components in this trailer work so it could have been possible to elaborate a new model (RB.04LE-02), with two main objectives: reduction of costs and weight with subsequent increase in the liquid load for roadway transportation. The trailer’s components analyses were made utilizing the theory of fatigue strength of materials and finite element method with the von Misses criteria for a more safety when realizing the calculations

Silicosis, a common type of pneumoconiosis, is an occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of silica dust often with mining activity and thus reaches the miners. The fine and ultrafine silica particles deposited in the alveolar epithelium may lead to the development of progressive massive fibrosis. An increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production has been proposed to explain the mechanism for induction of pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis. In this situation, alveolar macrophages are activated to phagocytes silica particles deposited in the alveoli. The activated macrophages secrete large amounts of ROS that in turn induce synthesis of fibrotic factors. In addition, the activity of antioxidant enzymes is impaired, which results in increased lipid peroxidation, as well as generating a local inflammatory process. Diffuse pulmonary fibrosis progresses with interstitial collagen deposition. Interstitial collagen overlies small pulmonary arteries and arterioles and thus it is associated with pulmonary hypertension in pulmonary fibrotic diseases. In addition, cytokines and silica particles passing through the respiratory membrane can reach the bloodstream. In this context, the increase in the generation of ROS in the circulation may lead to a reduction in the bioavailability of nitric oxide, an important endothelium-derived relaxing factor. A deficiency in the nitric oxide bioavailability can result in vascular endothelial dysfunction. Moreover, pro-inflammatory cytokines could contribute to the impairment of endothelial function. In the airways, pro-inflammatory cytokines can reduce the smooth muscle responsiveness to β- adrenergic agonists as isoproterenol. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of silica dust instillation in the function of the pulmonary artery, aorta and trachea of rats with acute silicosis. For this purpose, male Wistar rats were anesthetized... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

No reservatório de Salto Grande (22º53’53’’S / 49º59’33’’W), Rio Paranapanema (SP/PR), é realizado um tipo de manejo (redução do nível de água) para redução da biomassa da macrófita submersa Egeria densa desde 2004. Estas plantas causam perdas econômicas para o programa de geração elétrica e infortúnio para a população local. O reservatório de Salto Grande possui lagoas marginais que apresentam elevada densidade dessas macrófitas e são tidas como ambientes de alta importância para o desenvolvimento, alimentação e reprodução de muitas assembléias, principalmente as de microcrustáceos zooplanctônicos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar as mudanças na estrutura (composição, riqueza, abundância e diversidade) das assembléias de microcrustáceos zooplanctônicos (Cladocera e Copepoda) e suas relações com as alterações nas condições limnológicas decorrentes da variação de nível em duas lagoas marginais (Pedra Branca e Guaritá) em função do deplecionamento. Foram realizadas amostragens mensais de abril/2005 a julho/2006, além de coletas nictemerais durante o processo de deplecionamento (agosto/05) e um mês após o mesmo. Para a análise do zooplâncton foram amostrados 150 litros de água superficial em cada lagoa (região limnética). Simultaneamente, foram medidas as variáveis físicas e químicas da água: temperatura, pH, oxigênio dissolvido, condutividade elétrica, transparência, turbidez, material em suspensão (total, frações orgânica e inorgânica) e concentração de clorofila a. As variáveis limnológicas demonstraram um padrão de variação sazonal, além da influência do deplecionamento, principalmente sobre a temperatura e oxigênio dissolvido. O valor de riqueza encontrado para Cladocera foi elevado, totalizando 49 táxons. Os Copepoda foram analisados apenas até o nível de Ordem... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

In this paper we study the process of manufacture of wire drawn steel bars 9254, from rolled wire rod. These bars are used in the automotive industry for the manufacture of coil springs, which make up the system damping of several vehicles. The wire drawing process consists of the steps of pre-straightening, shot peening, drawing, cutting and polishing. The study aims to search for the configuration of process variables, which present the best result with respect to bending. To this were maintained settings prestraightening and mechanical stripping and varied angles and stringer polish being studied to replace the spinneret with a working angle, for a string with two working angles. To assist in the analysis of the results was the tool used DOE Software Minitab, which assesses the variation in results according to each parameter and the interaction parameters. It was thus possible to determine the best condition for wire drawing

A terapia fotodinâmica (PDT), de maneira simplificada pode ser aplicada utilizando um fotossensibilizador (FS) e uma fonte de luz com comprimento de onda específico, que combinados na presença do oxigênio produzem espécies citotóxicas que causam o dano celular. O objetivo deste estudo piloto foi verificar a susceptibilidade de Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) à PDT, empregando diferentes concentrações de azul de metileno. As amostras desta bactéria foram sensibilizadas com azul de metileno nas concentrações de 6,25 μg/mL; 12,5 μg/mL; 25,0 μg/mL; 50,0 μg/mL; 100,0 μg/mL e 200,0 μg/mL e expostas à luz LED vermelha (660nm) por 20 minutos. Após o tratamento de todos os grupos estudados a fração de sobrevivência foi calculada pela contagem das unidades formadoras de colônia (UFC). O resultado deste estudo mostrou que o fotossensibilizador no escuro foi tóxico (dark toxicity) nas concentrações de 100 e 200 μg/mL. Já no grupo onde utilizamos apenas a luz, não houve redução bacteriana significativa. Entretanto, o uso combinado do AM e da luz LED (Grupo PDT) mostrou que todas as concentrações testadas causaram uma redução significativa de S aureus. Desta forma concluímos que a terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobiana pode ser um tratamento alternativo para redução de Staphylococcus aureus.
