Redes de energia elétrica inteligentes (smart grids)

Trecho da Nota Técnica: "Com o avanço do uso da tecnologia digital nos sistemas de fornecimento de energia elétrica, começa a surgir o que se convencionou chamar de quarta geração desses sistemas, ou seja, as chamadas smart grids, caracterizadas pelo uso intensivo de equipamentos digitais, de telecomunicações, de sensoriamento e operação remotos de instalações, e de tecnologia de informação (TI), adicionalmente às instalações físicas de geração, transmissão e distribuição de energia elétrica existentes."

Phenotypic correlations of fatty acid composition among intramuscular, subcutaneous and intermuscular fat tissues in concentrate-fed beef cattle of differing genotypes

[EN]In an attempt to predict intramuscular fatty acid composition using easily accessible fat depots, between-tissue correlations were studied in 75 Asturiana de los Valles bulls with different levels of muscular hypertrophy, and 25 Asturiana de la Montan˜ a bulls. Trans-18:1 in intramuscular fat was highly and positively correlated with levels in subcutaneous and intermuscular fats, while levels of total n-3 were not correlated. Predicting intramuscular fatty acid composition using easily accessible depots is thus possible for some fatty acids exhibiting high between-tissue correlations (e.g., trans-18:1) but breed and tissue specific deposition may limit this for others (e.g., n-3 fatty acids).

Enhanced Operation of Electricity Distribution Grids Through Smart Metering PLC Network Monitoring, Analysis and Grid Conditioning

Low Voltage (LV) electricity distribution grid operations can be improved through a combination of new smart metering systems' capabilities based on real time Power Line Communications (PLC) and LV grid topology mapping. This paper presents two novel contributions. The first one is a new methodology developed for smart metering PLC network monitoring and analysis. It can be used to obtain relevant information from the grid, thus adding value to existing smart metering deployments and facilitating utility operational activities. A second contribution describes grid conditioning used to obtain LV feeder and phase identification of all connected smart electric meters. Real time availability of such information may help utilities with grid planning, fault location and a more accurate point of supply management.

Selektionsversuche mit Trenngittern (sorting grids)

Der Beifang an kleinen Fischen beim Fang von Tiefseegarnelen (Pandalus borealis) ist sowohl aus Gründen des Bestandsschutzes als auch aus der Sicht des Fischers absolut unerwünscht. Diese Fische überleben zum größten Teil nicht die Fangprozedur, auch nicht, wenn sie unmittelbar nach dem Hol wieder über Bord gegeben werden. Sie sind damit für den Erhalt des betreffenden Bestandes verloren, kommerziell wertlos und verursachen in größeren Mengen einen erheblichen Sortieraufwand, der sich auf die finanzielle Bilanz einer Fangreise negativ auswirkt.
