Comparação entre métodos e análise de correntes de curto-circuito

Overcurrents may endanger the whole electrical system and living beings, they are the result of short circuits and failures that can occur in electrical systems, no matter how well designed they are. Therefore it is important to predict these failures with analysis of electrical systems to make it possible to design appropriate protections, to ensure that those intervene properly and avoid technical and mainly human losses. However there is no standard for calculation of the short circuit currents, the main authors of the national literature about the subject suggest various methods, knowing the particularities among them provides quick and easy choice and proper application of them. To do so, a base case from an electrical system that presents a short circuit is chosen, which will be analyzed using the methods presented

Os benefícios da natação para bebês

A natação para bebês apresenta diversos benefícios, tanto sob o ponto de vista físico, durante o desenvolvimento neuromotor do bebê, sob os aspectos sócio-afetivos, mostrando-se altamente benéfica para o relacionamento afetivo profundo entre a mãe e seu bebê, e deste com o mundo social em que vive. Assim, sob o ponto de vista psicológico e social, a natação para bebês tem dois momentos complementares – um que facilita situações de regressão a padrões primitivos de relacionamento com o mundo, e outro que estimula o movimento de socialização progressiva através da aquisição de recursos de desenvolvimento e de novos padrões de comunicação e integração com o mundo. A natação apresenta algumas características que a tornam bastante indicada para crianças de faixa etária baixa, e principalmente para bebês, pois nela encontra-se diversas formas de estimulação para o desenvolvimento da motricidade. Em termos musculares, foi notado que bebês que freqüentam a piscina têm a musculatura dorsal mais desenvolvida que a de outros bebês, além da estimulação de outros grupos musculares, o que facilitaria na recuperação de bebês com problemas respiratórios ou para reabilitação física. Assim, a natação proporciona ao bebê um bom desenvolvimento motor, cognitivo e afetivo, melhora o relacionamento entre pais e filhos, além de trazer inúmeros benefícios à saúde e ao dia-a-dia do bebê.

Utilização de biossurfactante e surfactante químico para dessorção de óleo presente em vermiculita hidrofobizada: estudo comparativo

A number of methods and products have been developed in order to eliminate or reduce the negative effects that hydrocarbons cause to the environment, including hydrophobic expanded vermiculite, used in oil residue filtering systems at gas stations. However, upon adsorbing organic compounds, the vermiculite is no longer used and is sent to landfills. The aim of the present study was to wash granular and powdered vermiculite containing oil lubricant in its pores with distilled water and solutions of 0.1% SDS surfactant and rhamnolipids, with the aim of removing the lubricant and the possibility of reusing the mineral. The greatest amount of lubricant removal was obtained through washing with 0.1% SDS and both granulometric forms. This may be associated to the industrial purification received by the surfactant. However, the biosurfactant is ecologically more viable due to its low toxicity and ease of degradability. In the readsorption tests, greatest adsorption was obtained with the granular vermiculite washed in SDS solution. In order to enable the reuse of the mineral, further tests are needed to enhance desorption/adsorption efficiency.

Fibras naturais: características químicas e potenciais aplicações

This study has as objective determining the chemical properties that serve as the basis for potential scientific and technological applications of seven species of fibrous plants cultivated in Brazil, which are: Banana” (Musa spp.), “Coco” (Cocos nucifera), Curauá (Ananas erectifolius), Fique (Furcraea andina), Piteira” (Furcraea gigantea), Sisal(Agave sisalana) and “Taboa” (Typha domingensis). The tests for determining the percent dry completely, extractives soluble in cold water, in hot water, in sodium hydroxide 1% and in ethanol-toluene, and the percentages of ash, hydrophobicity, lignin, holocellulose and cellulose were performed at the Department of Environmental Sciences, Agronomy College (FCA) of UNESP – Botucatu, São Paulo State. It also presents a literature review about these fibers and their potential applications. Differences between the results obtained and those found by other authors are possibly explained by variations on the origin of plant material, the harvest season, the climate and soil where they were grown. However, the results and the methodology used, serve as a basis for further studies with natural fibers
