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

Avaliação da rigidez torcional do chassi de um protótipo Baja SAE através do método de elementos finitos e de ensaio experimental

The torsional stiffness of chassis is one of the most important properties of a vehicle's structure and therefore its measurement is important. For the first time, the torsional stiffness was considered on the design of a prototype Baja SAE of the team from UNESP - FEG, Equipe Piratas do Vale Bardahl. According to the team's opinion, the increase of stiffness on this prototype, called MB1114, made possible a great improvement in its performance during competitions. In this work, the experimental evaluation of the torsional stiffness from this prototype is performed, detailing the analysis of results, as well as, the hysteresis' effect, least-squares regression and uncertainty analysis. It also shows that it is possible to measure the torsional stiffness of chassis with a low experimental uncertainty without expending many resources. The test rig costed R$ 32,50 due the reuse of materials and the use of instrumentation already available on campus. Furthermore, it is simple to produce and can be easily stocked. Those features are important for Baja and Formula SAE teams. Lastly, the measured value is used to validate the finite element analysis performed by the team during this prototype's design, because similar studies will be performed for the new cars. After investigating the finite element analysis, one result 13,5% higher than the measured value was reached. This difference is believed to be occurred due the imperfections of the finite element model, in other words, for not been possible to simulate every phenomena present on the real model

Pinniped Populations at Islas ae Guadalupe, San Benito, Cedros, and Natividad, Baja California, in 1968

In April and June 1968, the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program (POBSP) of the Smithsonian Institution conducted surveys on breeding marine birds and pinnipeds on various Mexican islands. Between 18 to 26 April and 21 to 29 June, pinniped populations were surveyed at Islas de Guadalupe, San Benito, Cedros, and Natividad off Baja California. Species observed were the California sea lion, Zalophus californianus, Guadalupe fur seal, Arctocephalus townsendi, harbor seal, Phoca vitulina, and northern elephant seal, Mirounga angustirostris

La internacionalización de las empresas bajo el marco específico de las zonas de baja fiscalidad

[ES] En el presente trabajo se exponen, desde una perspectiva teórica, los principales motivos aducidos por las empresas multinacionales para acometer inversiones en zonas de baja fiscalidad, siendo éste el preámbulo del trabajo empírico desarrollado. Los resultados obtenidos nos permiten presentar un perfil de las empresas interesadas en realizar este tipo de inversiones frente a aquellas que no lo están. Esta contribución permitiría enfocar los esfuerzos del órgano competente en la promoción exterior de la Zona Especial Canaria.

Identificación de regiones del ADN con baja frecuencia de lectura

[ES] El ADN es un polímero que contiene la mayor parte de la información necesaria para el desarrollo y funcionamiento de todos los organismos vivos conocidos. La información está fraccionada en diferentes segmentos, los genes, que contienen variables que son individuales y que determinan las características de cada persona. Hay dos que son de especial importancia para la atención sanitaria: la susceptibilidad genética de padecer una enfermedad y la capacidad de responder de forma diferencial a un medicamento, denominado farmacogenética. Poder identificar dichas variantes puede ayudar a comprender la enfermedad e individualizar el tratamiento del paciente respectivamente. Para conocer estas variantes debemos conocer la secuencia de ADN de los genes implicados en las patologías o en las características farmacogenéticas para un individuo determinado, un proceso denominado secuenciación. Sin embargo, existen técnicas para seleccionar y secuenciar el exoma, que es la parte del genoma que contienen los exones, fracciones de los genes que contienen la información necesaria para la fabricación de las proteínas. La secuenciación de exoma cubre la mayor parte de los exones del genoma, pero no detecta algunas regiones, lo que imposibilita la detección de variantes en ellas. Este hecho crea una incertidumbre diagnóstica, lo que limita el poder de esta herramienta para la detección de mutaciones patogénicas. Así, el objetivo principal del Trabajo Fin de Grado es la creación de una herramienta informática que permita al personal clínico, la detección de regiones del exoma con poca cobertura de secuenciación, es decir, regiones del ADN con una frecuencia de lectura baja comparándolo con respecto al genoma de referencia.
