Caracterização geomorfológica das áreas associadas a zonas de falhas na bacia de Taubaté SP

Landscape is the result of interaction between tectonic, weathering and pedogenetic processes, so it is necessary to understand the morphogenesis and relate it to the landforms and landscape. Therefore, this project comprises a geomorphological characterization of some areas associated with the fault zones of Taubaté Basin, at the surroundings of the cities from São José dos Campos to Taubaté SP, emphasizing the Quaternary landscape evolution, where the normal faults played an important role in controling and they were originated, mostly, from the reactivation of Precambrian fault zones by tectonic action. The rift valley scenario is highlighted in the region, identifying the sharp relief from the basin boundary, featuring both Serra do Mar and Serra da Mantiqueira, and a central depressed area where the Taubaté Basin is located. Deforming or modifying basin features are identified, promoting the rearrangement and conditioning of the drainage network and relief, which indicates the presence of morphostructures, conducting to the deduction of a late tectonic process

Metodologia de determinação de funções de pertinência de controla-dores fuzzy para a avaliação energética de empresas de avicultura de postura

The objective of this work is to determine the membership functions for the construction of a fuzzy controller to evaluate the energy situation of the company with respect to load and power factors. The energy assessment of a company is performed by technicians and experts based on the indices of load and power factors, and analysis of the machines used in production processes. This assessment is conducted periodically to detect whether the procedures performed by employees in relation to how of use electricity energy are correct. With a fuzzy controller, this performed can be done by machines. The construction of a fuzzy controller is initially characterized by the definition of input and output variables, and their associated membership functions. We also need to define a method of inference and a processor output. Finally, you need the help of technicians and experts to build a rule base, consisting of answers that provide these professionals in function of characteristics of the input variables. The controller proposed in this paper has as input variables load and power factors, and output the company situation. Their membership functions representing fuzzy sets called by linguistic qualities, as “VERY BAD” and “GOOD”. With the method of inference Mandani and the processor to exit from the Center of Area chosen, the structure of a fuzzy controller is established, simply by the choice by technicians and experts of the field energy to determine a set of rules appropriate for the chosen company. Thus, the interpretation of load and power factors by software comes to meeting the need of creating a single index that indicates an overall basis (rational and efficient) as the energy is being used.

Desenvolvimento de um sistema de controle para avaliação de fontes de energias renováveis no bombeamento de água

The use of alternative energy systems in the current days is an urgent necessity due to the problems that the planet is facing as the heating and loss of ozone layer. The scarcity of conventional energy is another problem that must be solved for the future of humanity. It must be considered that the people are inhabiting places moved away not always with available energy. The application of technologies as automation and control can help us to solve this problem.

Gestión de pacientes de un Servicio de Urgencias Hospitalarias

[ES] Un servicio de urgencias de una zona ofrece asistencia sanitaria y tiene como principal objetivo atender la patología urgente que acude al hospital y el nivel de compromiso que se asume consiste en diagnosticar, tratar y estabilizar, en la medida posible, dicha patología urgente. Otro objetivo es gestionar la demanda de atención urgente por parte del ciudadano a través de un sistema de selección prioritaria inicial (Triaje) que selecciona, prioriza, organiza y gestiona la demanda de atención. Para poder controlar y realizar el trabajo de la forma más eficaz se utilizan herramientas de gestión necesarias para el control de los pacientes, desde que se realiza su ingreso en el servicio de urgencias hasta el alta del mismo. Las aplicaciones desarrolladas son las siguientes: Gestión de Pacientes en Urgencias: Esta aplicación asignará un estado inicial al paciente y permitirá ir cambiando el estado del mismo usando el método del Triaje (valoración), el más difundido en la medicina de urgencias. Además, se podrán solicitar pruebas diagnósticas y la visualización de marcadores de analíticas para comprobar su evolución. Finalmente, se podrá desarrollar un informe de alta para el paciente. Informadores de Urgencias: La aplicación gestiona la localización física del paciente dentro del servicio de urgencias, permitiendo asimismo el cambio entre las distintas localizaciones y el control para la información a los familiares de los mismos, pudiendo almacenar los familiares y teléfonos de contactos para que estos puedan ser informados. El desarrollo se ha realizado utilizando el MVC (modelo - vista - controlador) que es patrón de arquitectura que separa los datos de una aplicación, la interfaz gráfica de usuario y la lógica de control de componentes. El software utilizado para el desarrollo de las aplicaciones es CACHÉ de Intersystems que permite la creación de una base de datos multidimensional. El modelo de objetos de Caché se basa en el estándar ODMG (Object Database Management Group, Grupo de gestión de bases de datos de objetos) y soporta muchas características avanzadas. CACHÉ dispone de Zen, una biblioteca completa de componentes de objetos preconstruidos y herramientas de desarrollo basadas en la tecnología CSP (Caché Server Pages) y de objetos de InterSystems. ZEN es especialmente apropiado para desarrollar una versión Web de las aplicaciones cliente/servidor creadas originalmente con herramientas como Visual Basic o PowerBuilder.

Sistema de gestión abierto de cita previa

[ES] Este trabajo consiste en la creación de un sistema de gestión abierto de cita previa, surge de la necesidad del personal de las Administración Tributaria de Canarias que trabajan en las oficinas de atención tributaria de tener un sistema que facilite al contribuyente la forma de gestionar una cita previa para solicitar atención tributaria, además de facilitar al coordinador, la gestión de citas solicitadas por los contribuyentes. Para ello se ha realizado un análisis previo para cubrir todos los requisitos que eran necesarios para que se cubrieran todas las necesidades del sistema y que fuera totalmente escalable. Para el desarrollo del sistema se ha utilizado la plataforma Java EE que dota de todas las herramientas necesarias para la creación de un software de estas características, además de numerosas herramientas que ayudan a la consecución satisfactoria del sistema, como pueden ser Hibernate y Spring. Se ha utilizado un sistema de virtualización para tratar de imitar lo máximo posible la forma de desarrollo que tiene la empresa para que así la integración del sistema sea absoluto, por eso se han utilizado las mismas herramientas que utilizan y la misma estructura de base de datos. Además de las diversas herramientas se han utilizado distintos patrones de diseño para el desarrollo del software como pueden ser: Front Controller, Facade y Data Access Object además del patrón Modelo-Vista-Controlador para la arquitectura de este sistema. La utilización de estos patrones ayuda a que el mantenimiento de este sistema sea mucho más óptimo.

Los niños de nadie : puntos de partida para una ruptura epistemológica en las concepciones de las políticas públicas de niñez y adolescencia

La Ley de Protección Integral de Niñas, Niños y Adolescentes 26.061 se materializa en las políticas sociales de infancia, cuya universalización es imprescindible. Sin embargo, dicha ley encuentra sus limitaciones en el sesgo biopolítico y controlador en el que se constituyen las leyes liberales pregonando una ciudadanía virtual, enmarcada en un discurso de igualdad que se reproduce en la base de las desigualdades generadas por el capital. Es por ello que se plantea al protagonismo infantil como una matriz de pensamiento superadora, posicionando al niño como un ser político, hablante y emancipado de la apropiación del mundo adulto.

Controlo de estufagem do Vinho Madeira em escala piloto

Um dos processos de envelhecimento do Vinho Madeira é a “Estufagem” realizada através da circulação de água aquecida a uma determinada temperatura por um sistema de serpentina existente no interior de cada estufa. De modo a tornar o processo de estufagem eficiente e preservar a qualidade do Vinho Madeira, a monitorização, registo e controlo da temperatura reveste-se da maior importância sendo, atualmente, todo esse processo realizado, por norma, manualmente, quer no sistema de dez estufas de aço inox existente no laboratório de enologia da Universidade da Madeira (UMa), quer nos sistemas das cooperativas de Vinho Madeira. Existem, no mercado, alguns sistemas que solucionam, com menor ou maior limitação, este problema. Porém, nenhum desses sistemas implementa um sistema de controlo “inteligente” capaz de se adaptar automaticamente a diferentes períodos de temperaturas predefinidos e manter o aquecimento das estufas de acordo com essas temperaturas com uma margem de erro inferior a ±0,5℃, bem como o custo associado aos mesmos é elevado o que dificulta a sua implementação neste setor. O sistema implementado, nesta tese, consiste em duas aplicações: uma aplicação web e uma Windows Forms Application. A aplicação web foi desenvolvida em C# com recurso à framework ASP.NET Web Pages e implementa toda a lógica necessária à monitorização gráfica e à gestão do sistema, nomeadamente a definição do setpoint para cada estufa. A Windows Forms Application, também desenvolvida em C# devido à necessidade de interligação com a biblioteca fornecida pela CAREL para conexão aos controladores de temperatura IR32, efetua o registo e controlo automático da temperatura, de acordo com o setpoint definido para cada estufa através da aplicação web. O controlo de temperatura realiza-se com recurso às redes neuronais, nomeadamente através dum controlador DIC (Direct Inverse Controller) que obteve, de entre os vários controladores testados, o melhor Erro Quadrático Médio (MSE) e o melhor Coeficiente de Correlação (R). Através da utilização do sistema implementado conseguiu-se eliminar a limitação física de erro com ± 1℃ em torno do setpoint tendo-se conseguido, para o melhor caso, uma margem de erro de ± 0,1℃ relativamente ao setpoint reduzindo-se, assim, a margem de variação de temperatura até um máximo de 1,8ºC e, consequentemente, o erro associado.
