Desenvolvimento de uma caixa de redução para veículo Baja SAE

A gear Box in a Baja SAE vehicle is required due to the objectives of the SAE competitions, which the vehicles are challenged to pass through different obstacles. A powertrain system has as the main objective the extension of the torque for the traction shaft of the vehicle, when compared to that one available in the engine. The Objective of this thesis is the description of a gear box project for a Baja SAE vehicle of the Piratas do Vale Team of Unesp Guaratinguetá. In the development of the thesis, a flowchart, developed by the team, was used, which includes a theory part and also the choice of shelf components. In this Project, the type of gearbox was chosen, besides the calculation of axles, gears, bearings and sealers, and software simulations were done for the critical parts. The transmission, developed in this thesis, is more complex than the current one used by the team, but the new one shows improvements, as a new reverse gear with high torque

Green supply chain management em uma indústria de bens do consumo do Vale do Paraíba - SP

The Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is gaining prominence in the academy and business, as an approach that aims to promote economic and environmental gains. The GSCM is operated through the Environmental Management System Tools and treated as an Environmental Management System (EMS), involving Reverse Logistics, Green Purchasing, Green Sourcing, Green Design, Green Packaging, Green Operation, Green Manufacturing, Green Innovation and Customer Awareness. The objective of this study is to map the GSCM tools and identify their practice in a consumer goods industry in the Vale do Paraiba. The approach and data collection were made in the company's database chosen as the object of study, as well as through on site visits and interviews. The results showed that the tools Green Operation, Green Manufacturing, Green Innovation and Green Sourcing are applied in the company and just Costumer Awareness tool showed no practice at all. To other tools was identified ideology or interest of the company in applying them

Influence of intentional ankylosis of deciduous canines to reinforce the anchorage for maxillary protraction

Introduction: This retrospective cephalometric study analyzed the influence of intentional ankylosis of deciduous canines in patients with Class III malocclusion and anterior crossbite, in the deciduous and early mixed dentition stages, treated by orthopedic maxillary expansion followed by maxillary protraction. Methods: Lateral cephalograms of 40 patients were used, divided in 2 groups paired for age and gender. The Ankylosis Group was composed of 20 patients (10 boys and 10 girls) treated with induced ankylosis and presenting initial and final mean ages of 7 years 4 months and 8 years 3 months, respectively, with a mean period of maxillary protraction of 11 months. The Control Group comprised 20 patients (10 boys and 10 girls) treated without induced ankylosis, with initial and final mean ages of 7 years 8 months and 8 years 7 months, respectively, with a mean period of maxillary protraction of 11 months. Two-way analysis of variance and covariance analysis were applied to compare the initial and final cephalometric variables and the treatment changes between groups. Results: According to the results, the variables evidencing the significant treatment changes between groups confirmed that the intentional ankylosis enhanced the sagittal response of the apical bases (Pg-NPerp) and increased the facial convexity angles (NAP and ANB). Conclusions: The protocol involving intentional ankylosis of deciduous canines enhanced the sagittal response of the apical bases.

Sustentabilidade e cadeia de suprimentos: uma perspectiva comparada de publicações nacionais e internacionais

O objetivo do artigo é apresentar um quadro de referência de conceitos da Gestão da Sustentabilidade na Cadeia de Suprimentos (GSCS) para auxiliar pesquisas futuras na tentativa de integração intra e interorganizacional fundamentada em aspectos da sustentabilidade. Trata-se de um artigo teórico, cujo procedimento metodológico adotado foi o desk research em periódicos da área de gestão e operações, realizado em duas etapas. Na primeira, buscou-se visualizar os estudos da temática em seis importantes periódicos internacionais da área, totalizando 53 artigos entre 1954 e 2009. Esta etapa gerou uma evolução da temática, contribuindo para apontar tendências. Na segunda, foram revisados seis periódicos nacionais da área de administração. Selecionaram-se 11 artigos, publicados entre 1961 e 2009, resultando em um panorama da temática no contexto acadêmico brasileiro. O conceito de GSCS apareceu apenas em 2007, o que mostra a atualidade do tema, embora este seja a junção de temáticas anteriormente estudadas.

Cirurgias plásticas para readequação de contorno corporal de pacientes submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica durante a adolescência

INTRODUÇÃO: A partir da década de 1990 foram iniciados os primeiros tratamentos cirúrgicos da obesidade em adolescentes, seguindo a sequência cirurgia bariátrica, perda ponderal e dismorfismo corporal, criando demanda por cirurgias plásticas para readequação do contorno corporal. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar fatores associados a cirurgias plásticas de readequação de contorno corporal (morbidade e mortalidade), realizadas em pacientes submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica durante a adolescência. MÉTODO: Entre janeiro de 2008 e janeiro de 2011, 5 pacientes submetidos a gastroplastia redutora durante a adolescência, com consequente perda e estabilização de peso, foram submetidos a cirurgias plásticas do contorno corporal. A média de idade no início das cirurgias plásticas foi de 19,7 anos, sendo 3 (60%) pacientes do sexo feminino. Foram realizadas dermolipectomias abdominais em todos (100%) os pacientes, dermolipectomias crurais em 4 (80%), dermolipectomias braquiais em 2 (40%), mamoplastia com inclusão de implantes de silicone em 2 (40%) pacientes do sexo feminino, mastopexia na terceira paciente do sexo feminino (20%) e correção de ginecomastia em 1 (20%), toracoplastia em 2 (40%), torsoplastia em 2 (40%) e torsoplastia reversa em 1 (20%). Foram realizadas, em média, 3 intervenções cirúrgicas por paciente, sendo operados 20 sítios cirúrgicos. RESULTADOS: Ocorreram deiscências em 3 (15% dos sítios cirúrgicos) casos e foi necessário revisar a ressecção dermogordurosa por flacidez residual em 3 (15% dos sítios cirúrgicos) casos. CONCLUSÕES: Foram identificados alguns fatores associados às cirurgias plásticas de readequação de contorno corporal na amostra de 5 pacientes submetidos a cirurgia bariátrica durante a adolescência, comparáveis aos da literatura específica.

La expresión génica hipotalámica de la enzima Citocromo P450scc en ratas hembras es regulada positivamente por estrógeno y negativamente por progesterona

Los neuroesteroides son potentes moléculas modulatorias sintetizadas en sistema nervioso central y cuya actividad se restringe a dicho ámbito. En su síntesis participan enzimas del grupo del citocromo P450 (CP450) enzimas que no pertenecen a dicho grupo. En este trabajo se estudia la expresión génica de CP450scc a nivel de hipotálamo medio basal (HMB) de ratas hembra en diferentes condiciones hormonales, y se lo relaciona con su eventual regulación a través de esteroides gonadales, particularmente estrógenos y progesterona. Se proporciona evidencia de que existe una expresión diferencial en HMB, y que dicha expresión se encuentra positivamente modulada por estrógenos, y negativamente modulada por progesterona.

Food composition of beryx-alfonsino over submarine rises near Azores

Qualitative and quantitative food composition, as well as intensity of feeding of beryx-alfonsino Beryx splendens was examined on banks near the Azores. Data are presented with respect to size groups and taking into account type of feeding of males and females. Crustaceans and fishes were constituents of their feeding ration. A tendency toward increase in the number of consumed fishes in the course of ontogenetic development of beryx-alfonsino was noted. Beryx-alfonsino was shown to occupy the trophic level of consumers of the third order performing function of a deep-water predator.
