Processamento e caracterização de compósitos de resina fenólica com nanotubos de carbono com aplicações aeroespaciais

Este trabalho de pesquisa consistiu na obtenção de compósitos nanoestruturados utilizando matrizes poliméricas termorrígidas e nanotubos de carbono (CNT) e posterior caracterização de suas propriedades mecânicas, térmicas, elétricas, reológicas e demais características físico-químicas para aplicações aeroespaciais. As atividades experimentais para a realização deste trabalho foram, em sua maioria, conduzidas na Alemanha. Durante o desenvolvimento deste trabalho de pesquisa, foi possível entender melhor como deve ser realizada a purificação, funcionalização e dispersão de CNT em compósitos poliméricos. Desta forma, CNT foram caracterizados e utilizados como reforços para a obtenção de compósitos nanoestruturados em matrizes termorrígidas (resina fenólica). Estes compósitos foram processados, por meio de cura em autoclave e avaliados com relação aos seus desempenhos mecânicos, físico-químicos e morfológicos. Duas metodologias foram utilizadas para permitir a dispersão dos CNT: dispersão em solução aquosa e por calandragem (TRC). Os resultados obtidos mostram que a metodologia mais adequada para dispersar os CNT em resina fenólica é a partir do processo por calandragem e que teores superiores a 0,5% em massa de CNT não resultam em melhorias significativas quanto aos desempenhos viscoelástico, térmico, elétrico e mecânico destes compósitos. Ainda, a partir dos ensaios reológicos e elétricos, foi observado que teores abaixo de 0,2% em massa de CNT já são suficientes para promover a percolação dos CNT na resina fenólica, gerando mudanças significativas no comportamento físico-químico do compósito nanoestruturado. A partir deste trabalho de pesquisa...

Viabilidade de turbinas eólicas de pequeno porte no Brasil

Facing a global scenario where oil is scarce and the emission of CO2 in the atmosphere is a world concern, the search for new methods of energy production becomes the focus of all countries. Based on these assumptions, the wind power gains highlight and happen to be the most exploited around the world, since this does not produce toxic waste, since it uses the wind, no raw material shortage and its cost and efficiency are increasingly attractive. Taking advantage of the geographical features of Brazil, coastal and territorial extension, this study aims to analyze the feasibility of using wind turbines widely used in Germany, one of the countries with the highest production of energy through wind, in Brazil. In order to increase the energy production without causing more environmental impacts, geographical analyses will be made, and to determine the features and costs of production of this type of energy generation, and at the end of this dissertation, will finish for one of the turbines, Montana, is it feasible to install, however due to the Government's little incentive return is not very expressive. With respect to the turbine Passaat, this is infeasible to install under current conditions

Estudo urbano e ambiental da circulação urbana do bairro de Santo Amaro, cidade de São Paulo

This work is resulted of studies about the urban circulation in the modern cities. It was developed from two case studies: the city of São Paulo, specifically Santo Amaro's neighborhood and the city of Regensburg in Germany. The urban circulation of these places was analyzed starting from the premise that the daily of the inhabitants is a relevant factor to be considered. It was researched the types of transportation, the accessibility, and the clearance of public transportations. One of the main purposes of this work was to present general guidelines for the improvement urban circulation in the modern cities, as well as to supply didactic material that contribute to the reflection about urban circulation focusing priorly on the problems of traffic of driving force vehicles

Principais aplicações terapêuticas da ozonioterapia

The ozone therapy is the therapeutic administration of ozone, which can be: subcutaneous (SC), intramuscular (IM) Intradiscal; intracavitary (pleural and peritoneal spaces); intravaginal, intrauretral, in the bladder; ozonated autohemotherapy. This therapy is being increasingly studied in order to help in some treatments and is being proven to be very effective in most cases, especially in acting on disinfection and healing of extensive wounds. There are over 6000 articles on the medical use of ozone in the literature, but the concentration used varies with each author. Most diseases have a positive response because ozone increases tissue oxygenation and metabolism. Discovered in Germany in the nineteenth century, ozone therapy still needs further study to clarify its mode of action and demonstrate its benefits. The objective of this review is to discuss some of the studies in the literature and try to clarify the main directions and forms of action of ozone therapy in medicine, showing the possibilities of getting good results including in veterinary medicine

Análise das emissões de gases do efeito estufa na produção do milho através da fertilização por resíduos de biocombustível. Estudo de caso : Dedelow - Brandemburgo - Alemanha

The focus of this research study were gas exchange between soil and atmosphere of nitrous oxide (N2O) between different fertilization treatments Corn The research, conducted in the experimental field Dedelow - Brandenburg / Germany, analyzed three different fertilization treatments, aiming to quantify GHE emissions, to identify the influence of the residue of biogas in the release of these gases process in agricultural soils in search for a solution fertilization less harmful to the environment and the greenhouse effect , based on the comparison of three treatments: organic fertilization, mineral fertilization and no fertilization. It was found through the analysis of the measurements that the first was the one which issued N2O, showing that even though coming from the residue of biogas , when returned to the soil, it becomes harmful to the environment and global warming . The cultivation of energy crops can lower or raise the emissions of greenhouse gases, so it is necessary for further research on this question not only in Germany , where such research is in continuity, but also in Brazil, a pioneer in the introduction to his energy matrix of a biofuel produced from cane sugar

Análise comparativa entre Brasil e Alemanha sobre autoprodução de energia elétrica residencial

The energy crisis has affected many countries. With the growing warning with the emission in the atmosphere and the lack of resources, the seek for sustainable sources for energy genaration have become even bigger. Some Countries, as Germany, started first in this journey, creating an incentive program to self-generation with renewable sources (wind, photovoltaics, biomass, etc.), giving priority for smaller plants. In Germany the program called EEG started in 2004. In Brazil, since the beggining of 2012, the self-generators did not know how they could be beneficted for self-generation, and self-generation didn't become commun in the country. However, with NR 482, of April 17th, 2012, the parameters were defined, and the self-generator could have a guideline. Therewith, studyies can be redirected for a better knowlegde of the conditions the self-generator will be sujected, in addition to Germany's case as reference to compare with Brazil's case. In this paper these studies are made, focused in wind power (wind turbines) and photovoltaic panels

O romantismo de George Sand em Un Hiver à Majorque

This article aims to draw attention to the elements that signalize some characteristics of the Romanticism in the narrative Un hiver à Majorque by George Sand, such as the style, the themes, the descriptions of space and the use of fantastic elements. Some quotes and intertextual allusions are also employed as procedures to emphasize the dialogue established by the text of Sand with the literary romantic movement.

Visões seiscentistas do paraíso e do inferno: passos na construção da recepção da litratura brasileira na Alemanha

The present text intents to explore how the observation and the annotation of cultural practices of a nation can have a decisive role in the image construction of its literature and how this image can be decisive for the perception of the texts written about the target nation. To exemplify this idea, some important topics for the construction of the image of Brazil and for the text written about this country in Germany are taken under consideration.

Provocação para um resgate na construção das relações literárias Brasil/Alemanha

The present article starts from the initial consideration that, in the perspective of the investigations of the Brazil/Germany literary relations, not always the study of the presence of Brazilian literary works in Germany has been receiving sufficient attention in Brazil. Initially, the natural existence of mental paths is signalized. This fact, in a way, guides the general lines of the critical Brazilian thought in the consideration of aspects of the cultural and literary dialog here in question. This consideration favors the movement that goes from Germany to Brazil, which doesn’t give enough space for the study of the opposite movement. Finally, some historical literary elements are presented, which can base deeper studies of the literary relations Brazil/Germany in the sense that here is intended to be rescued, i.e., the one that goes from South America to Europe.
