Neste trabalho foram avaliadas as propriedades de resistência e deformabilidade de misturas solo-cimento-fibra. O estudo experimental consistiu de duas etapas, denominadas de etapa de laboratório e etapa de campo. Na etapa de laboratório foi verificada a influência da adição de fibras de polipropileno no comportamento tensão x deformação de um solo arenoso cimentado e não cimentado. Ensaios de resistência à compressão triaxial foram realizados para avaliar os efeitos da porcentagem de fibras, do comprimento das fibras, do diâmetro das fibras, da porcentagem de cimento, da densidade relativa, da tensão de confinamento e da distribuição granulométrica no comportamento do compósito. Na etapa de campo, o comportamento carga x recalque do solo arenoso cimentado reforçado com fibras foi avaliado, juntamente com os mecanismos de ruptura de cada compósito, através da execução de ensaios de placa de 0,30 m e 0,60 m de diâmetro sobre camadas tratadas de 0,30 m de espessura. Os métodos propostos por Vesic (1975), Meyerhof & Hanna (1978) e Thomé (1999) foram utilizados para a previsão da capacidade de suporte das camadas tratadas em campo A partir dos resultados obtidos chegou-se às seguintes conclusões: (1) a influência da inclusão de fibras sobre as propriedades mecânicas do compósito depende fundamentalmente das propriedades da matriz; (2) a porcentagem de cimento e a tensão de confinamento exercem forte influência no comportamento mecânico do material compósito; (3) o efeito da inclusão de fibras é mais evidente para maiores comprimentos e maiores teores de fibras, sendo seu efeito mais pronunciado para materiais compósitos com maiores densidades; (4) a influência das fibras na resistência de pico e última do material depende também do diâmetro das fibras e da distribuição granulométrica do solo; (5) O comportamento carga x recalque do solo cimentado é influenciado pela adição das fibras, alterando principalmente o comportamento pós-pico e o mecanismo de ruptura; (6) os valores de previsão da capacidade de suporte das camadas cimentadas, com e sem reforço de fibras, apresentam boa aproximação com os valores experimentais.

A utilização de resinas epóxi na fabricação de materiais compósitos vem crescendo substancialmente nos últimos anos. O processo de pultrusão também acompanha esta tendência e a demanda por dados técnicos a respeito desta resina vem crescendo, sendo cada vez mais objeto de pesquisa em universidades e empresas. A pultrusão é um processo contínuo de fabricação de materiais compósitos. O processo consiste basicamente em duas etapas a saber: a impregnação, onde se tem a aplicação da mistura com resina, endurecedor e aditivos sobre as fibras; a cura do perfil, onde o material compósito passa pelo processo de reticulação, adquirindo sua forma final e suas diferentes propriedades mecânicas, físicas e químicas. O interesse deste trabalho reside especialmente sobre este tipo de resina pelo fato de que seu emprego no processo de pultrusão confere excelentes propriedades químicas e elétricas ao perfil fabricado. Dadas às características do processo de pultrusão, o conhecimento do comportamento da resina, do ponto de vista físico e cinético, é requisito básico para a obtenção de produtos de qualidade. Apresentando um comportamento diferenciado de resinas poliéster, as resinas epóxi possuem características especiais que tornam o seu uso no processo de pultrusão bastante desafiador. Através de ensaios térmicos (calorimetria exploratória diferencial – DSC- e análise termogravimétrica – TGA) foi possível verificar o comportamento das resinas epóxi misturadas com endurecedor As resinas estudadas apresentaram boa resistência térmica, com temperaturas de degradação superiores a 1500C. Quando testadas no DSC, as resinas apresentaram diferentes calores de reação para cada um das condições testadas, destacando-se a resina LY-553 como adequada para uso no processo de pultrusão. Testes verificando tempo de gel e viscosidade complementaram os dados, fornecendo informações úteis para o estudo das resinas na área de impregnação no processo de pultrusão. Estes testes confirmaram a aplicabilidade da resina LY-553 no processo de pultrusão, bem como qualificaram a resina GY-281 como uma possível alternativa para a produção de perfis pultrudados.

The direct use of natural gas makes the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) potentially more competitive with the current energy conversions technologies. The Intermediate Temperature SOFC (IT-SOFC) offer several advantages over the High Temperature SOFC (HT-SOFC), which includes better thermal compatibility among components, fast start with lower energy consumption, manufacture and operation cost reduction. The CeO2 based materials are alternatives to the Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) to application in SOFC, as they have higher ionic conductivity and less ohmic losses comparing to YSZ, and they can operate at lower temperatures (500-800°C). Ceria has been doped with a variety of cations, although, the Gd3+ has the ionic radius closest to the ideal one to form solid solution. These electrolytes based in ceria require special electrodes with a higher performance and chemical and termomechanical compatibility. In this work compounds of gadolinia-doped ceria, Ce1-xGdxO2-δ (x = 0,1; 0,2 and 0,3), used as electrolytes, were synthesized by polymeric precursors method, Pechini, as well as the composite material NiO - Ce0,9Gd0,1O1,95, used as anode, also attained by oxide mixture method, mixturing the powders of the both phases calcinated already. The materials were characterized by X ray diffraction, dilatometry and scanning electronic microscopy. The refinement of the diffraction data indicated that all the Ce1-xGdxO2-δ powders were crystallized in a unique cubic phase with fluorite structure, and the composite synthesized by Pechini method produced smaller crystallite size in comparison with the same material attained by oxide mixture method. All the produced powders had nanometric characteristics. The composite produced by Pechini method has microstructural characteristics that can increase the triple phase boundaries (TPB) in the anode, improving the cell efficiency, as well as reducing the mass transport mechanism effect that provokes anode degradation

The manufacture of prostheses for lower limb amputees (transfemural and transtibial) requires the preparation of a cartridge with appropriate and custom fit to the profile of each patient. The traditional process to the patients, mainly in public hospitals in Brazil, begins with the completion of a form where types of equipment, plugins, measures, levels of amputation etc. are identified. Currently, such work is carried out manually using a common metric tape and caliper of wood to take the measures of the stump, featuring a very rudimentary, and with a high degree of uncertainty geometry of the final product. To address this problem, it was necessary to act in two simultaneously and correlated directions. Originally, it was developed an integrated tool for viewing 3D CAD for transfemoral types of prostheses and transtibial called OrtoCAD I. At the same time, it was necessary to design and build a reader Mechanical equipment (sort of three-dimensional scanner simplified) able to obtain, automatically and with accuracy, the geometric information of either of the stump or the healthy leg. The methodology includes the application of concepts of reverse engineering to computationally generate the representation of the stump and/or the reverse image of the healthy member. The materials used in the manufacturing of prostheses nor always obey to a technical scientific criteria, because, if by one way it meets the criteria of resistance, by the other, it brings serious problems mainly due to excess of weight. This causes to the user various disorders due to lack of conformity. That problem was addressed with the creation of a hybrid composite material for the manufacture of cartridges of prostheses. Using the Reader Fitter and OrtoCAD, the new composite material, which aggregates the mechanical properties of strength and rigidity on important parameters such as low weight and low cost, it can be defined in its better way. Besides, it brings a reduction of up steps in the current processes of manufacturing or even the feasibility of using new processes, in the industries, in order to obtain the prostheses. In this sense, the hybridization of the composite with the combination of natural and synthetic fibers can be a viable solution to the challenges offered above

This work proposes the development of an innovative material made from a vegetable polyurethane matrix and load of industrial waste, from retread tires, for thermal insulation and environmental comfort. Experimental procedures are presented, as well as the results of the thermal and acoustic performance of this composite material, made from an expansive foam derived from the castor seed oil and fiber of scrap tires. The residue was treated superficially with sodium hydroxide, to eliminate contaminants, and characterized macroscopically and microscopically. Samples were produced with addition of residues at levels of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight, for determination of thermal properties: conductivity, heat capacity and thermal diffusivity, sound absortion index and density. The results were compared to commercially available thermal insulation and sound absorbing products. According to the analysis of results, it was concluded that the developed composite presents characteristics that qualify it as a thermal insulation with superior performance, compared to commercial available insulation, and sound absorption capacity greater than the castor oil polyurethane s, without addition of the residue

Materials denominated technical textiles can be defined as structures designed and developed with function to fulfill specific functional requirements of various industrial sectors as are the cases of the automotive and aerospace industries. In this aspect the technical textiles are distinguished from conventional textile materials, in which the aesthetic and of comfort needs are of primordial importance. Based on these considerations, the subject of this dissertation was established having as its main focus the study of development of textile structures from aramid and glass fibers and acting in order to develop the manufacture of composite materials that combine properties of two different structures, manufactured in an identical operation, where each structure contributes to improving the properties of the resulting composite material. Therefore were created in laboratory scale, textile structures with low weight and different composition: aramid (100%), glass (100%) and aramid /glass (65/35%), in order to use them as a reinforcing element in composite materials with polyester matrix. These composites were tested in tension and its fracture surface, evaluated by MEV. Based on the analysis of mechanical properties of the developed composites, the efficiency of the structures prepared as reinforcing element were testified by reason of that the resistance values of the composites are far superior to the polyester matrix. It was also observed that hybridization in tissue structure was efficient, since the best results obtained were for hybrid composites, where strength to the rupture was similar to the steel 1020, reaching values on the order of 340 MPa

Visando a aplicação de recursos naturais renováveis da Amazônia, entre estes as fibras naturais, neste trabalho é apresentada a proposta de fabricação e caracterização de laminados de madeira reforçado por compósitos de matriz poliéster e fibras naturais. A matriz é um poliéster teraftálica insaturada e pré-acelerada obtida comercialmente (Duverpoly 754) e o agente de cura um peróxido de MEK (butanox M-50) na proporção de 0,33% em volume. As fibras naturais usadas para cada amostra de laminado fabricado foram o tecido de fibras de tururi, fibras de sisal e fibras de curauá e as laminas de madeira usadas foram as conhecidas comercialmente como imbuia. O tecido de tururi foi usado de duas formas: sem abertura e com abertura de 100% em relação a largura original. As fibras de sisal e curauá foram cortadas em comprimentos de 50 mm na usados na forma de pré-preg. A fabricação do material laminado foi feita através da inserção intercalada de lâmina de material compósito entre as laminas de madeira seguido de pressão controlada através de uma prensa hidráulica com pressão constante de 2 toneladas, produzindo desta forma o laminado de madeira reforçado. Características mecânicas e microestruturais foram obtidas para a lâmina de madeira e para os laminados de madeira reforçados, obtendo-se a resistência a tração, da lamina de madeira e imagens microscópicas depois do ensaio de tração. As laminas de madeira antes do reforço, foram ensaiadas tendo duas orientações de 90° e 0° de orientação das fibras. O laminado de 0°grau apresentou o melhor resistência mecânica, com valor correspondente a 35,64 MPa comparado com o valor de 0,40 MPa para a lamina de 90°. Os ensaios dos laminados de madeira reforçados, de madeira/tururi sem abertura, madeira/tururi com abertura de 100%, madeira/sisal de comprimento de fibras de 50 mm, madeira/curauá de comprimento de fibras de 50 mm, madeira/madeira com orientação de 90°a direção das fibras, alcançaram respectivamente os seguintes resultados de ensaio de tração: 61,33 MPa; 57,27 MPa; 49,27 MPA; 53,76 MPa e 68,29 MPa, sendo que o laminado de madeira/madeira apresentou o melhor resultado e a menor resistência mecânica foi registrado para o laminado de madeira reforçado por fibras de sisal. As imagens obtidas em microscopia eletrônica de varredura corroboraram com as propriedades mecânicas obtidas para cada situação do material e fibra fabricadas.
