Instalações para o Curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da FCT/UNESP

A necessidade de se ter profissionais capacitados para pensar a questão urbana e propor soluções inovadoras é o ponto de partida para a criação do curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo na Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”. Quando da sua criação, toda a estruturação foi baseada na infraestrutura já existente no campus para que posteriormente novas instalações, adequadas às especificidades do curso, fossem pleiteadas. Com apenas oito anos de funcionamento, alunos e professores enfrentam dificuldades no desenvolvimento das atividades em função da falta de infraestrutura adequada. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho é dedicado ao desenvolvimento de um projeto que atenda de forma satisfatória as demandas existentes no curso. A partir da elaboração de estudos de projetos análogos e de analises das necessidades do campus e suas necessidades obtém‐se as diretrizes que encaminham para a escolha da uma área apropriada para implantação nesta unidade universitária e pautam o desenvolvimento do projeto, que busca inserir‐se de forma adequada ao contexto préexistente

Aplicações práticas de proteção radiológica nas áreas de medicina nuclear e radiodiagnóstico em instalações hospitalares

After the discovery of ionizing radiation, its applications in various fields of science began to take significant proportions. In the case of medicine, there are the application areas in radiotherapy, diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine. It was then necessary to create the field of radiological protection to establish the conditions necessary for the safe use of such ionizing radiation. Apply knowledge obtained during the graduation stage and in the practice of radiological protection in the areas of nuclear medicine and diagnostic radiology. In the area of nuclear medicine, tests were made in the Geiger-Muller counters (GM) and the dose calibrator (curiometer), the monitoring tests of radiation, waste management, clean of the Therapeutic room and testing the quality control of gamma-chambers. In the area of radiology, were performed tests of quality control equipment for conventional X-ray equipment and x-ray fluoroscopy, all following the rules of the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA), and reporting of tests. The routine developed in the fields of nuclear medicine in hospitals has proved very useful, since the quality control of GM counters contribute to the values of possible contamination are more reliable. The control of dose calibrator enables the patient not to receive different doses of the recommended amounts, which prevents the repetition of tests and unnecessary exposure to radiation. The management of waste following the rules and laws established and required for its management. Tests for quality control of gamma chambers help to evaluate its medical performance through image. In part of diagnostic radiology, tests for quality control are performed in order to verify that the equipment is acceptable for usage or if repairs are needed. The knowledge acquired at the internship consolidated the learning of graduation course

Planejamento e controle da produção: reestruturação no layout de apertadeiras eletrônicas em uma linha de produção do ramo de autopeças

In industrial plants, there is a department responsible for planning the use of productive resources to find the best possible way to set out plans in strategic, tactical and operational levels. This department is known as PCP or PPCP, which means Planning and Production Control and Planning, Programming and Production Control, respectively. This work presents the use of some of the tools from this department, in particular the Aggregate Production Planning, to propose a new layout of electronic nutrunners for an auto parts industry output line. Through some process indicators analyzes, was identified some productivity losses. The higher loss rate occurred by the electronic nutrunners breaking, and so this work was focused in these devices. Some premises were adopted for the use of electronic nut runners, setting an ideal cycle time for the operation of the production line and making calculations to define the minimum amount of electronic nutrunners to find the production demand without damaging the equipment. With this work we observed that a relevant factor for the constant breaks of electronic nutrunners is because these are working with overload, in other words, the amount of installed equipment is not enough to supply the demand without failures
