O presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar a fadiga muscular por meio da amplitude e freqüência do sinal eletromiográfico (EMG) do músculo vasto lateral (VL) e reto femoral (RF) do membro inferior direito, durante protocolo incremental de corrida em esteira e nas contrações isométricas submáximas realizadas no início e após cada velocidade. Participaram deste estudo 07 voluntários saudáveis, do gênero masculino, experientes em corrida na esteira, com idade média de 25 anos (± 4,3), sem antecedentes de doenças músculo-esqueléticas nos membros inferiores e de antropometria semelhante. Foram realizadas três contrações isométricas voluntárias máximas (CIVM = 100%) de extensão do joelho para posterior determinação da contração submáxima de 50% da CIVM (CI-50%). O protocolo de corrida foi composto de um aquecimento de 5 minutos (9 km/h), e após iniciou-se o teste com velocidade inicial de 10 km/h e incremento de 1 km/h a cada 3 minutos, até a exaustão voluntária, havendo uma pausa entre cada velocidade de aproximadamente 2 minutos. Antes do início da corrida e após cada velocidade realizou-se uma contração isométrica com 50% da CIVM (CI-50%) de 5s de duração. No sinal eletromiográfico coletado durante a corrida, os valores de RMS (Root Mean Square) dos músculos VL e RF foram obtidos no período correspondente a um ciclo completo da passada a 10% e 100% do tempo analisado (120 segundos finais de cada velocidade) por meio de rotina específica (Matlab). No sinal eletromiográfico coletado durante as CI-50% (5s), os valores de RMS e FM (freqüência mediana) foram obtidos no período de 1s (intervalo de 1 a 2s). A normalidade dos dados foi determinada através do teste de Shapiro-Wilk. Utilizou-se teste-t de Student para amostras pareadas, e o nível de significância (p) adotado foi de p<0,05. Os resultados...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

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

Since the beginning of the railway industry until today, rail wheels are important components to the good working of a railway. For being a critical security item, design and maintenance are done with extremely care to avoid failures. Despite de fact of railway components be projected to support a big number of cyclic solicitation during its life, some accidents still occur. These accidents, despite the low frequency, always have great consequences, drawing in great financial, material, and people losses. Nowadays, railway component failure is relatively low, because it’s been projected to work below the materials Fatigue Resistance Limit, however, with the growing demand of faster trains and higher load for each axle, the occurrence probability is even bigger. This work includes a comparative study of two fabrication processes (casting and forging) applied in the production of rail wheels where it was measured the mechanical properties of traction and fatigue. The study also verified through microstructural analysis, hardness, traction and fatigue tests, statistical analysis of fatigue test results and fractographic analysis that forging process lead to better correlations between fatigue life and mechanical properties, providing more security in railroads, less wagon retention caused by corrective maintenance and smaller operational cost with its use

The oil extraction in deep waters sparked new areas of knowledge, the creation of engineering courses dedicated just to these processes and a wide field of analysisvoiding multiple impacts in case of faults, mainly the economic and environmental. This paper aims to show on the effects and causes of fatigue failure in steel tubes used for oil and gastransportation (linepipe), mainly caused by vortex induced vibrations, or VIV. To make this, through laboratory tests, it found trough the curve Stress versus Number of Cycles, and thus estimating that with a stress value of 350 MPa or less, the fatigue life cycle of the API 5CT T95 (1% Cr) pipe is estimated infinite. It could conclude that the analyzed material has good fatigue failure resistance for offshore use, taking into account only the influence of VIV's, since there are no stress concentrators

Nowadays, the automotive industry is working to optimize the design of engines, in order to reduce the fuel consumption with acceptable efficiency ratio. This undergraduate thesis is aimed at perform a kinematic/dynamic analysis of a slider-crank mechanism that is part of a four stroke internal combustion engine, the same engine that was used in the analysis described by Montazersadhd and Fatemi (2007). Two algorithms were developed based on Kane’s method to calculate velocities and accelerations of the mechanism bodies, and provide the acting forces at connecting rod joints. A SimMechanics model was developed to simulate the engine, and monitoring the same parameters that were calculated with the algorithms. The results obtained with both approaches were satisfactory and showed good agreement with the values provided by Montazersadhd and Fatemi (2007). The obtained results showed that the axial component of the rod joint efforts was caused by the pressure exerted on the piston head,whereas the radial component was related with the action of inertia loads. Besides, this thesis presents a connecting rod assembly mesh that is going to be used for static and fatigue finite element analysis in the future

A fadiga muscular é definida como uma falha no sistema neuromuscular na capacidade de gerar uma força requerida ou esperada. Quanto maior a idade do indivíduo, maior é a probabilidade de chegar à fadiga, aumentando o risco de quedas. Dessa forma, a fadiga pode influenciar no andar dos indivíduos, causando prejuízos no controle postural e podendo causar lesões músculo-esqueléticas A partir dos estudos realizados, percebe-se que a fadiga muscular pode prejudicar o desempenho do andar, sendo ele adaptativo ou não. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar e comparar a influência da fadiga muscular sobre os parâmetros cinemáticos do andar livre e adaptativo entre adultos jovens e idosos. Participaram do estudo 20 indivíduos, distribuídos em dois grupos etários: Adulto Jovem - 20 a 40 anos; e Idoso - a partir de 60 anos. Os participantes realizaram o andar livre e adaptativo percorrendo uma distância retilínea de 8 metros sobre um carpete de borracha com 1,4m de largura. Foram realizadas 6 tentativas para cada condição experimental. Para a coleta dos dados cinemáticos dos ciclos do andar definidos foi utilizado um sistema tridimensional (3D) optoeletrônico de análise do movimento (OPTOTRAK Certus – 3D Motion Measurement System, NDI), com precisão de 0,1 mm, posicionado no plano frontal, face anterior, ao movimento do participante, com frequência de 100 Hz. A indução a fadiga será através da tarefa de sentar e levantar. Para a comparação entre os dois grupos foram analisados as seguintes variáveis espaciais e temporais do andar livre e adaptativo: comprimento de cada passo, largura de cada passo, velocidade média do andar, distância horizontal pé-obstáculo antes da ultrapassagem, distância horizontal depois do obstáculo e distância vertical péobstáculo. Estas variáveis foram analisadas durante o ciclo do andar antes e após fadiga muscular.

Têm-se preocupado cada vez mais com a saúde do trabalhador manual, que vem sendo prejudicada com as altas demandas de trabalho repetitivo sem a devida recuperação, aumentando os riscos de lesão. A fadiga muscular tem se mostrado um importante fator responsável pelo aumento do risco de lesão, pois deixa a musculatura enrijecida e com pouca resistência muscular para suportar a demanda de trabalho. Este estudo pretende evidenciar a diminuição da força de resistência muscular devido ao acúmulo de fadiga residual do trabalho, através da dinamometria manual. Foram escolhidos 16 sujeitos, funcionários do Restaurante Universitário e da administração do Instituto de Geociências (IGCE) da UNESP campus Rio Claro, que realizam trabalho manual repetitivo. Entre os 16 sujeitos, haviam 11 mulheres (com média de idade 48,8 ± 12,4, e média de IMC 26,9 ± 4,8) e 5 homens (com média de idade 45,9 ± 14,8 e média de IMC 25,3 ± 6,5). Foi realizado o teste de preensão manual onde os sujeitos realizavam 10 contrações rápidas e de máxima força, com intervalo de 3 segundos entre cada contração, mas foram utilizadas para análise as contrações 1, 5 e final.. O teste foi realizado com ambas as mãos na Segunda-feira e na Sexta-feira, no período da manhã e da tarde. Analisando-se os resultados obtidos para a mão não-dominante, pudemos observar uma queda nos valores de média de força manual ao longo das contrações, sendo que na sexta-feira a queda é maior que na segunda-feira, e à tarde a queda é maior que no período da manhã. Para a mão dominante, essa queda maior ocorreu na sextafeira à tarde, momento de maior acúmulo de fadiga residual. Podemos concluir com este estudo, que a fadiga residual do trabalho interfere na queda de desempenho de força dos funcionários, sendo a mão não-dominante mais influenciada pela fadiga...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

In recent years, increasing demand for energy has led to studies to increase the amount of electricity produced. Due to this fact, more and more boilers are becoming important sources of electricity generation. To raise the efficiency of energy generated in the boilers is necessary to raise the steam pressure and temperature to values previously unimaginable. The use of more resistant materials and maintenance practices and most appropriate operation made it possible. The objective of this study is to test the main types of failure in a chemical recovery boiler, in particular due to fatigue in the superheater, because it is a component subjected to high temperatures and thus more subject to different failures. In this manner this study aims to reduce the incidence of unscheduled maintenance shutdowns, increasing the operation time under appropriate conditions. Modeling performed in this study, the failure did not occur, because we considered only the mechanical stress. Under normal conditions, mechanical stress in combination with thermal stresses can cause cracks in the tubes due to cyclical stresses, leading to fatigue failure

The increasing search for better performance at the automotive industry, especially on the matter of fuel consumption, caused a progressive evolution of industrial technology. For the wheel this study is based on the try of reducing mass and decreasing the moment of inertia, characteristics that directly reflect on the performance parameter, as consumption and acceleration, so that it also is effective on the growth of the profit margin, since it reduces the costs of the locomotion. In this paper will be applied the Finite Element Analysis to explain the wheel behavior and identify ways to improve the performance. To the analyze it will be simulated a test condition established by ABNT NBR 6751:2009 foreseeing a possible collapse through general yielding and fatigue. The load here presented results from the equation presented on the norms and in the datas provided by the manufacturer

When materials for application in aircraft structural components are studied, it must be considered that they will be submitted to cyclic loading, and this is an important parameter to design the study in fatigue life of the materials. Whereas, for example, a landing gear operation, the study of fatigue life and corrosion in the materials used in it is essential, especially when you want to use new techniques for surface treatments. The objective is to study the influence of surface treatment of immersion ion implantation nitrogen plasma, in axial fatigue of Stainless steel 15-5 PH in 39-42 HRC condition. Stainless steel 15-5 PH was tested in axial fatigue and corrosion in salt spray. It was also performed microindentation tests, optical microscopy for microstructural analysis and scanning electron microscopy for fractographic analysis. It was observed that the 3IP had no effect on the thickness of the material and not the hardness of it, and still provided a significant increase in fatigue life of the material

This work will address the study of fatigue conditions with constant load in an alloy of aluminum analysis 7475 - T761, so we can better understand the conditions of the aircrafts which contain this alloy in their structures. A literature review, which was discussed the concepts of fracture mechanics, fatigue, aeronautical components, chemical analysis of aluminum alloys, fatigue problems that appears in the aircrafts, metallographic analysis, and testing of optical microscopy tensile, fatigue and microhardness, surface analysis (MEV) study of the chemical composition of the alloy in question, the main causes of crashes, was performed, completing the work, analysis of data from tensile test, hardness and fatigue together with the interpretation of images of optical microscopy and scanning electron was taken. The data indicated the high mechanical strength of the alloy, along with its microstructure indicating elongated grains and high surface contour, which shows such resistance by hindering the movement of dislocations. The grooves are clearly shown in the MEV images as well as the classic with increased fatigue loading and subsequent reduction of the number of cycles to rupture behavior shown in the graphs. Therefore we observed the optimal behavior is supported by the league when subjected to fatigue loadings
