O problema do balanceamento de linhas de montagem

A finalidade desta monografia, é a de efetuar uma pesquisa dos métodos desenvolvidos para o balanceamento de linhas de montagem e obter informações para verificar se a indústria usa realmente tais métodos. Normalmente o balanceamento de linhas de montagem é realizado apenas com o uso do bom senso e o método de tentativas erros sem maiores considerações, constitui ainda objetivo desta monografia, determinar o grau de otimização conseguido em algumas fábricas para o balanceamento, com vistas a verificação se e ou não compensador o uso de algum método formal, e no caso afirmativo, qual ou quais, o presente trabalho, possui ainda a finalidade adicional de transferir conhecimentos necessários para as fábricas pesquisadas, possibilitando a introdução de tais métodos e de acompanhar o inicio da implantação resolvendo os problemas decorrentes. Com tal pesquisa, poderiam ser atingidas tanto as metas teóricas, ou seja, o conhecimento dos métodos desenvolvidos sobre balanceamentos de linhas de montagem, como ainda aquelas operacionais quanto à sua aplicação à realidade industrial.

Análise e extração das expectativas dos agentes de mercado em torno da data do COPOM

Este trabalho explora um importante conceito desenvolvido por Breeden & Litzenberger para extrair informações contidas nas opções de juros no mercado brasileiro (Opção Sobre IDI), no âmbito da Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros de São Paulo (BM&FBOVESPA) dias antes e após a decisão do COPOM sobre a taxa Selic. O método consiste em determinar a distribuição de probabilidade através dos preços das opções sobre IDI, após o cálculo da superfície de volatilidade implícita, utilizando duas técnicas difundidas no mercado: Interpolação Cúbica (Spline Cubic) e Modelo de Black (1976). Serão analisados os quatro primeiros momentos da distribuição: valor esperado, variância, assimetria e curtose, assim como suas respectivas variações.

Fundamentos em processamento de linguagem natural: uma proposta para extração de bigramas

É senso comum que o texto escrito é uma importante forma de registrar as informações e que atualmente grande parte desse conteúdo informacional está disponível em meio digital. Entretanto, de maneira geral, os computadores lidam com o texto como sendo uma cadeia de caracteres que não têm nenhum significado. A área de Processamento de Linguagem Natural (PLN) vem se empenhando em extrair significados do texto. Nesse sentido este trabalho apresenta uma revisão desse tema e propõe um método automatizado que utiliza uma heurística determinística denominada Heudet que visa extrair bigramas do texto. A meta é extrair o significado do texto através de um conjunto de expressões multipalavras identificadas. Os resultados obtidos foram melhores se comparados com aqueles que utilizam-se das técnicas de medidas de associação estatística obtidas pelo software Ngram Statistics Package (NSP).

Círculos ao invés de linhas: em busca de valores e princípios estruturantes da gestão social. Projeto juventude, participação e autonomia (Instituto Universidade Popular - UNIPOP)

The organizations are characterized as dynamic spaces, they are being revisited and redefined, because they constitute structural human spaces and new vain outlines won expression. As it begins, of the non consensus in its conception, it is explicit the complexity degree that is identified in the plurality and diversity, brought by the people that compose them, characterizing it as accomplishment space, of happiness and also of conflict, of relationships of power and organizational limits and from birth and burial of faiths, values, norms, symbols, knowledge and rituals, therefore, deeply human. In that way, to know the administration of the organization is preponderant condition for the format of the human relationships to be delineated in its living. Like this the work makes an option in knowing the social administration, this work tries to know and analyze the values and beginnings of the social administration; revealling characteristics and specificities of the organizational performance of UNIPOP that contribute to the formation of the conception of Social Administration, it tends as source of the information the managers of the institution; to identify the formative values of UNIPOP that contribute to the youths' partner-political action in the community, tends for reference the current students of the organization and last to evaluate values structurates and supporting that interconnection between the organizational Administration, formation youth's program, participation and autonomy and attendance, starting from the existences gained by the exits, of that program. This way, the research will be qualitative, looking for understanding starting from their documents, the existence of those values

Extração, caracterização estrutural e atividades farmacológicas do olginato obtido da alga marrom Lobophora variegata (Lamouroux) Oliveira Filho, 1977

The alginic acid or alginates are acidic polysaccharides found in brown seaweed widely used in food, cosmetic, medical and pharmaceutical industry. This paper proposes the extraction, chemical characterization and verification of the pharmacological activities of brown seaweed variegata Lobophora . The alginate was extracted from the seaweed Lobophora variegata and part was sulphated for comparative purposes. The native extract showed 42% total sugar, 65% uronic acid, 0,36 % protein and 0% of sulfate, while the sulfate showed 39% , 60%, 0.36% and 27,92 % respectively. The presence of a sulfate group may be observed by the metachromasia with toluidine blue in electrophoresis system and characteristic vibration 1262,34 cm-1 in infrared spectroscopy connections assigned to S = O. We observed the formation of films and beads of native alginate, where more concentrated solution 6% resulted in a thicker and more consistent film. Native alginate showed proliferative activity at concentrations (25 and 50 mcg), (50 mg) and (100 mg) in 3T3 cell line in 24h, 48h and 72h, respectively , as the sulfated (100 mg) in 24 . Also showed antiproliferative or cytotoxic activity in HeLa cells of strain, (25 and 100 mg), (25 and 100 mg) and (25, 50 and 100 mg), to native, now for the sulfate concentrations (100 mg) in 24 (25, 50 and 100 mg) in 48 hours, and (50 and 100 mg ) 72h. For their antioxidant activity, the sulfated alginates have better total antioxidant activity reaching 29 % of the native activity while 7.5 % of activity . For the hydroxyl radical AS showed high inhibition ( between 77-83 % ) in concentrations, but the AN surpassed these numbers in the order of 78-92 % inhibition. The reducing power of AN and AS ranged between 39-82 % . In the method of ferric chelation NA reached 100 % chelating while the AS remained at a plateau oscillating 6.5%. However, in this study , we found alginates with promising pharmacological activities, to use in various industries as an antioxidant / anti-tumor compound

Estudo da adição do resíduo proveniente da extração de minério de ferro em argilas do Rio Grande do Norte

The mining industry is responsible for the generation of waste from their natural process of extraction. The mining impacts in urban areas are of special importance due to the high urban occupation, which are exacerbated due to the proximity of the mined areas and populated areas. Some solutions to wastedisposal have the potential to significantly reduce the environmental risks and liabilities, but represent higher costs in the stages of deployment and operation. The addition of mining waste as raw material in the development of commercial products reduces the environmental impacts, transforming the waste into a positive element in the generation of employment and income. This thesis studies the incorporation of waste iron ore in two clays, one from the ceramic industry of the City of Natal and the other from the ceramic industry of the Seridó Region, both in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Percentages of iron ore waste of 5%, 10% , 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% were used in the tested ceramic matrix. The two clays and the iron ore waste used as part of this investigation were characterized by X-ray diffraction tests, X-ray fluorescence tests, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and dilatometric analysis. The samples were sintered under temperatures of 850 °C, 950 °C and 1050°C at a heating rate of 5 °C/min with isotherms of two hours. The following tests were performed with the samples: linear shrinkage, water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent density, mass loss in fire and bending resistance in order to obtain their physical and mechanical properties. An amount of 5% of waste iron ore in the matrix clay at a temperature of 850 0C resulted in na increase of about 65% in the tensile strength of the clay samples from the Natal ceramic industry. A linear shrinkage of only 0.12% was observed for the samples, which indicates that the physical properties of the final product were not influenced by the addition of the waste
