Evolução geológica das sequências do embasamento do Cinturão Araguaia na região de Paraíso do Tocantins (TO), Brasil

Estudos isotópicos baseados nas metodologias Pb-Pb em zircão e Sm/Nd (rocha total), permitiram avanços no entendimento do quadro geológico evolutivo e litoestratigráfico do embasamento do segmento sul do Cinturão Araguaia. Os processos geológicos identificados aconteceram a partir do Arqueano (2,6 Ga e T_DM 2,78 – 3,25 Ga) e se estenderam até o Neoproterozoico. Os ortognaisses do Complexo Rio_dos Mangues posicionam-se no Paleoproterozoico (2,05 – 2,08 Ga) e T_DM 2,35 – 2,21 Ga. Um forte encurtamento crustal e fusão parcial de compartimentos isolados e espessados, gerou corpos ígneos de 1,85 e 1,82 Ga e o Granito Serrote (1,86 Ga), que provêm de fontes entre 2,50 e 2,43 Ga. No final do Mesoproterozoico a região foi marcada por processos tafrogenéticos, evidenciados por magmatismo máfico e alcalino (1,05 Ga) e bacias deposicionais, como a que acolheu os sedimentos que originaram as supracrustais do Cinturão Araguaia. No Neoproterozoico, através da inversão nas condições geodinâmicas, ocorreu novo processo de encurtamento/espessamento crustal com fusões que originaram expressivas massas batolíticas (Granitos Matança e Santa Luzia). O Cinturão Araguaia foi edificado a partir dessa movimentação tectônica. O transporte de massas tectônicas no sentido do Cráton Amazônico teria ocorrido, resultando na atual arquitetura em que se encontram as várias unidades lito-estratigráficas, organizadas sob a forma de lascas imbricadas.

Strontium isotope stratigraphy of the Pelotas Basin

Dados da razão isotópica de estrôncio foram obtidos a partir da análise de conchas de foraminíferos recuperadas dos depósitos terciários da Bacia de Pelotas visando o refinamento do arcabouço cronoestratigráfico dessa seção. Este artigo representa a primeira abordagem à obtenção de idades numéricas para esses estratos. A estratigrafia de isótopos de estrôncio permitiu a identificação de oito hiatos deposicionais na seção Eoceno-Plioceno, aqui classificados como desconformidade, além de uma seção condensada. O reconhecimento de hiatos deposicionais representa um importante avanço, considerando a baixa resolução cronoestratigráfica da seção cenozóica da Bacia de Pelotas. Além disso, foi identificado um substancial aumento na taxa de sedimentação na seção neomiocênica. Tendências gerais de paleotemperatura e produtividade foram identificadas com base em dados das razões isotópicas de oxigênio e carbono da seção Oligoceno-Mioceno. Essas tendências são coerentes com eventos globais, evidenciando as condições ambientais durante a sedimentação.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)

CARACTERÍSTICAS DO CIMENTO DOS DEPÓSITOS SEDIMENTARES DA BACIA BAURU: REGIÃO DE PRESIDENTE PRUDENTE – SP

Este artigo apresenta resultados parciais de uma pesquisa referente à cimentação em rochas sedimentares na região de Presidente Prudente – SP, que é integrada a um projeto aplicado à gestão de águas subterrâneas. Geologicamente, a área está localizada em depósitos sedimentares da Bacia Bauru, do Cretáceo Superior. Os resultados da pesquisa, baseados em dados de superfície e subsuperfície, demonstram uma correspondência entre o grau de cimentação carbonática e distinções petrográficas. Uma distinção nítida na porção leste da área da pesquisa deve ser relacionada a eventos tectônicos sindeposicionais ou pós-deposicionais. A presença de analcima no cimento indica a ocorrência de hidrotermalismo, que pode estar associado a esses eventos. Do ponto de vista hidrogeoquímico, a variação do pH das águas subterrâneas em função da profundidade dos poços está relacionada ao comportamento hidroquímico dos minerais constituintes do cimento. A pesquisa mostra também que as camadas menos cimentadas são as mais valorizadas do ponto de vista da explotação de águas subterrâneas.

Sedimentação na bacia do Pantanal Mato-Grossense, Centro-Oeste do Brasil

The Pantanal is a Quaternary sedimentary basin located at the left margin of the Upper Paraguay River, west-central Brazil. Basin infilling was mainly by siliciclastic sediments and the stratigraphic succession exhibits an overall finingupward pattern. The depositional system tract is composed by a large meandering fluvial plain and several marginal alluvial fans, being the Taquari megafan the most striking feature. The present landscape is a complex tropical wetland, with geomorphic features derived from the present conditions and other inherited from successive Pleistocene and Holocene climates. During the Pleistocene, the sedimentary environment was dominated by braided alluvial fans, the original geometry of which is preserved as relict forms, permitting remarkable patterns of distributary paleochannels to be easily recognized in satellite images. Eolian processes were active in some abandoned lobes, contemporaneously with sedimentation in active fan lobes. Closed ponds bordered by lunette sand dunes, originally salt pans produced by eolian deflation, are relict eolian landforms in the Pantanal landscape. Eolian processes were probably more effective at the glacial maximum. Landscape has been changing in the Pantanal area since the end of the Pleistocene in adaptation to a more humid and warmer environment prevailing during Holocene. Initiation of the modern wetland has occurred during the Pleistocene / Holocene transition, with the change to a more humid climate and the individualization of lacustrine systems. The modern Pantanal wetland is a vast expanse of poorly drained lowlands that experiences annual flooding from summer to fall months. Although climatic fluctuations have occurred during all the Holocene, the alluvial fans have remained active depositional systems and lobes were formed by progradation and abandonment. Abandoned lobes were subjected... (Complete abstract click electronic address below)

Análise faciológica e estratigráfica das formações Taciba (parte superior) e Rio Bonito (membro Triunfo) em poços testemunhados da área de Monte Alegre (PR)

The Triunfo Member, from Rio Bonito Formation, is a potential reservoir for hydrocarbons and water, and contains coal deposits in the northern state of Paraná. On the eastern edge of the Paraná Basin, the Triunfo Member has two depocenters in Santa Catarina and offlap to the North of Paraná; here in two adjacent areas characterized his final lapout. These areas have a number of wells core/logged with the initials MA and NF, Monte Alegre and Figueira North, which were drilled by the Companhia de Pesquisa e Recursos Minerais (CPRM), in order to research for coal in the Rio Bonito Formation. In this study, three wells in the MA area, and they were MA-4, MA-6 and MA-7 was subjected to vertical facies analysis (1D), from the description of wells and processing of data, so that later it was possible to chronocorrelate thereof, together with MA-5 well, through cycles facies (2D). This is a thesis which has never been developed in these wells mentioned above, it was possible to observe the development of part of the Member Taciba (top) and the Member Triunfo as a whole, can be determined three cycles facies to the latter, as well as their depositional environments. Finally, the chronocorrelate showed that there is a tabular architecture between the wells studied, this occurred because of subsidence uniform

Comparação de compósitos obtidos via RTM de resina epóxi e fibra de carbono com e sem descontinuidade nos tecidos

Technology is growing interest in the use of composites, due to the requirement of lighter materials and more resistant, factors essential to meet the project specifications and reduce the operational cost. In the production of high performance structural composites, considering the aerospace criteria, the domestic industry has shown interest in the process of resin transfer molding (RTM) for reproducibility and low cost. This process is suitable for producing components of polymeric composites with relatively simple geometries, consistent thicknesses, high quality finish with no size limitations. The objective of this work was machined carbon steel to make a matched-die tooling for RTM and produce two composite plates of epoxy resin and carbon fiber fabric with and without induced discontinuities, which were compared towards their impregnation with ultrasound, their properties via tensile tests and thermal analysis. In ultrasonic inspection, it was found good impregnation of the preform of both composites. In the thermal analysis it was possible to check the degradation temperature of the composites, the glass transition temperature and it was found that the composites showed no effective cure cycles, but presented good performance in the tensile test when compared with aluminum alloy 7050 T7451 . The results showed that the injection strategy was appropriate since the laminate exhibited a good quality for the proposed application

Analise mecânica e microestrutural em estruturas tubulares aeronáuticas soldadas de aço ABNT 4130

Airplane Motor Cradles have a complex geometry, since they require different conbinations between different tubes and TIG welded in several angles. In T-25 aircraft and Universal T-27 Tucano (EMBRAER / FAB), besides having to bear the engine balance, these components maintain fixed the nose landing gear in another extremity. They are considered critical to flight safety, and for this reason, the aviation standards are extremely rigid in their production, imposing a zero index” of defects on the final weld metal quality. These structures may be containing an historical of welding repairs, whose effects on their structural integrity are not computed. In this work we analyzed the standardised AISI 4130 steel and the raw steel of tubes to the Airplane Motor Cradles. First of all, microscopy and microanalysis of the base steel, then we analyzed the effects of the TIG weld. Tensile testing was conducted to measure the difference between the mechanical properties of standardised steel and without this treatment

Modelagem de motor de combustão internae simulação do processo de queima de combustível

The internal combustion engine is a heat engine widely used in the automotive industry. In order to better understand its behavior many models in the literature have been proposed in the last years. The 0-D thermodynamic model is a fairly simple tool but it is very useful to understand the phenomenon of combustion inside the chamber of internal combustion engines. In the first phase of this work, an extensive literature review was made in order to get information about this kind of analysis and, after this, apply them in a model able to calculate the instantaneous temperature and pressure in one zone of the combustion chamber of a diesel engine. Therefore some considerations were made with the aim of increasing the accuracy of the model in predicting the correct behavior of the engine, adding the combined effects of heat transfer, leakage and injection. In the second phase, the goal was to study the internal flow of a three-dimensional model of an internal combustion engine. In order to achieve this goal the software Solidworks was used to create the geometries of an engine and the suite of softwares Ansys was used to create the moving mesh (ICEM CFD and CFX-Pre) and to solve the CFD problem (Ansys CFX code). The model was able to perform the air flow simulation during the four-stroke cycle of an engine: admission, compression, expansion and exhaust. The results obtained from both models were suitable and they open a new range of possibilities for future researches on the field

Análises tectono-estratigráfica e faciológico-diagenética da coquina-reservatório Lagoa Feia, Campo de Linguado, Bacia de Campos

A tectono-stratigraphic study of bivalve coquina-reservoir of Linguado Field allowed to identify two trends of permoporosity development. The delineation of these depositional-diagenetic traps were made through structural and stratigrafic cross-sections and maps. It resulted in the identification of shelf-ramp systems (tilted to SSE), it tickens from 60 to 70 meters and ends against an antithetic fault. The main coquina is bounded by fine siliciclastic units, white clay (low Gamma Ray values) or shale (high Gamma Ray values) lithologies, influencing diagenesis of basal or top coquina limestones (cimented, non-porous). Also in the middle of coquina-reservoir the “clayer” material is also associated with cemented carbonates, with also compartimentalize the reservoir into two subzones. The coquina porosity of the subzones is taken from density-neutron logs, while induction log estimates permeabilities and fluid saturations. It’s noticed the porosity development into pairs, good one followed by a regular/poor one and vice versa. These pairs form verticals succession, pair cycles where porosity improves or decreases upwards. These two scales of pore heterogeneity impose strong layering to the reservoir, and influences fluid saturations, oil-water contacts and porosity cut-offs. In a cross-section with density and induction logs, it can be observed the porosity variation along the shelf-ramp coquina (between 3LI_0004_RJS e 3RJS_0157C_RJ), the porosity is better developed in a downdip direction in the case of the two shelf wells, and also be the three ramp wells. The southern west downdip, 3RJS_0157C_RJ well, has best porosity pairs-cycles; however, its lowest structural conditions favour water saturation. Therefore it is fundamental for reservoir fluid evaluation a cross-plot analysis of RHOB-NPHI and Induction logs

Modelo petrofísico 3D do Arenito Namorado no Campo de Namorado - Bacia de Campos, RJ

The Namorado Oil Field represents the beginning of the oil exploration in Brazil, in the 70s, and it is still a subject of researches because the importance of this turbidite sandstone in the brazilian oil production. The Namorado’s production level was denominated “Namorado sandstone”, it is composed by turbidite sandstone deposited during the Albian-Cenomanian. In order to define the structural geometry of the main reservoir, geological and geophysical tools like RECON and Geographix (Prizm – Seisvision) softwares were used, and its application was focused on geological facies analysis, for that propose well logs, seismic interpretation and petrophysical calculations were applied. Along this work 15 vertical wells were used and the facies reservoirs were mapped of along the oil field; it is important to mentioned that the all the facies were calibrated by the correlation rock vs log profile, and 12 reservoir-levels (NA-1, NA-2, NA-3, NA-4, NA-5, NA-6, NA-7, NA-8, NA-9, NA-10, NA-11 e NA-12) were recognized and interpreted. Stratigraphic sections (NE-SW and NW-SE) were also built based on stratigraphic well correlation of each interpreted level, and seismic interpretation (pseudo-3D seismic data) on the southeastern portion of the oil field. As results it was interpreted on two- and three-dimensional maps that the deposition reservoir’s levels are hight controlled by normal faults systems. This research also shows attribute maps interpretation and its relationship with the selection of the reservoir attribute represented on it. Finally the data integration of stratigraphic, geophysical and petrophysical calculations lets us the possibility of obtain a detail geological/petrophysical 3D model of the main reservoir levels of “Namorado sandstone” inside the oil/gás field

Corpos intrusivos básicos na coluna sedimentar Permo-Carbonífera no vale do rio Corumbataí

As rochas intrusivas básicas associadas a Formação Serra Geral na porção sul do município de Rio Claro e norte de Piracicaba configuram geometrias na forma de diques e soleiras. Estes corpos estão associados à uma parte da Bacia Sedimentar do Paraná que foi deformada por eventos tectônico que resultaram em trends preferencias NW-SE, condicionando a estratigrafia, a intrusão e geometria dos corpos de diabásio e formação da estrutura domática do alto de Pitanga. Os corpos intrusivos tem em sua maioria a forma de soleiras e em menor quantidade a forma de diques. A compreensão destes corpos é importante para o entendimento da estratigrafia da área conhecida como domo de Pitanga na região de Rio e Piracicaba
