Estudo e aplicação da técnica de vibroacustografia em ensaios não destrutivos

A presença de falhas, trincas, furos e fadigas causam perturbações nos modos vibracionais (normais) de uma estrutura, por exemplo, tubos, gasodutos e peças metálicas. Uma vez conhecido o espectro de freqüência de uma estrutura instalada em condições normais (sem falhas), é possível acompanhar através, de ensaios não destrutivos uma alteração no espectro de freqüência que pode estar associado a alguma falha mecânica na estrutura.O presente trabalho busca encontrar um padrão nos sinais de resposta dos materiais analisados pela técnica de Vibroacustografia, antes e depois das deformidades causadas. Tentando viabilizar a técnica para a utilização em Ensaios Não Destrutivos (END). E futuramente, para as amostras biológicas, espera-se estender os conhecimentos obtidos dos ensaios anteriores para detecção e prevenção de possíveis fraturas do tecido ósseo

Efeitos da variação do teor de umidade da madeira no processo de lixamento

The process of sanding wood is little known and industries use it in a practical way without having studied their best conditions before. There are few studies involving this type of machining. On this basis, this paper studied the effects of varying moisture content of the wood surface quality after the sanding process. It was used a sanding machine with flat horizontal cut parallel to the fibers, using: 02 different species (Pinus elliottii and Corymbia citriodora); 01 sanding abrasive (aluminum oxide) and 03 different particle size abrasives ( P80 , P100 and P120 ) . Initially, the pieces were acclimatized ( 2 ± 7% , 12% and 17% ± 2 ± 2 ) and subsequently passed by the sanding process, and therefore, the surface roughness was analyzed. For each condition, were performed 06 repetitions totaling 54 trials for each species. We analyzed the effects of wood moisture by capturing the power sanding, rougheness, acoustic emission and maximum temperature during the sanding process. The variation of moisture content produced changes in the surface quality of the finished parts, and these changes were more marked in Pinus than Corymbia. During the sanding process of the specimens with 7 % and 12 % humidity, there was a lower noise emission, power consumption and heating surface. When checking the roughness of these parts after this process, it was observed that the surface quality of them were superior in the parts sanded containing 17 % moisture

O Grupo Sobrevento de teatro de formas animadas

Since prehistoric man seeks to dominate play scenes and images of their daily lives, to understand them or dominate. In the theater, the man tried to represent hunting scenes and deities. Since the first creation material representative of the gods, these objects acquire magical powers. After a long time, came the Puppet Theater, which through the use of various materials, the man concocted dolls in his image and likeness, as well as representations of animals. Subsequently, the Theater of Animated FormsVisual involved various props, like the mask, the shadow and the object. Thus, these elements can appear all together or not in the same show and are, therefore, the Theater of Animated Forms. How important human need to understand the world and events around them, the arts were needed to explain the divine and unreachable. Clumping the four languages of art: music, plastic arts, dance and theater, the Theater of Animated Forms of so characteristic of the man in search of the divine and sublime sentiments or not. In Brazil, faced with a multitude of excellent groups Theater of Animated Forms, the Sobrevento Group stands to monitor on an extensive repertoire theoretical foundation for the themes of the pieces created, and the high level of aesthetic sensitivity and artistic creation through is the dummies used in your repertoire. The objective of this study is to describe and analyze the Sobrevento Group considering the process of artistic creation, which led to the understanding of what is Theater of Visual Theater. To this end, guided interpretive anthropological approach, we conducted an ethnograph with the group

Analise de defeitos em motores através de vibração mecânica: estudo de caso

Revolving machines are among the most used equipment in general industry and therefore expenditures on this equipment class are a significant portion of the total amount spent by the company. If there is an unscheduled stop of some of this equipment, industrial plants can lose huge amounts of money caused by interrupted production and parts delay. Others may increase significantly maintenance costs due to consequences elsewhere not affected before. Even plant and people safety can be in danger if there is an operation interruption without a backup system start. This work is focused on a rotating system case study which is monitored by vibration analysis that shows that is possible to determine when is the most appropriate time for equipment intervention without any reliability loss just by using a simple and cheap system which is not much used because professionals are not aware to its utility. Industrial facilities were evaluated by fail detection and historical analysis in some equipment in order to show feasibility of vibration analysis through a before-during-after process. The plant evaluated is part of a chemical multinational located in Guaratinguetá-SP. At this time, that plant had around 650 critical equipment monthly monitored and no unscheduled shutdown was registered in one year period due to equipment monitoring

Ensaio de ligações de estruturas de madeira por chapas com dentes estampados em quatro espécies da família leguminosas

In the last years, the use of industrialized systems of lattice structures of wood as an alternative in the construction processes, is becoming more popular in Brazil, mainly for their commitment to the environment.The industrialized system of wooden lattice structures consists in a production of lattice structures, composed of pieces of wood where their mechanical connections are made with the sheet multi-toothed connectors (CDE).Among the many challenges to make this system competitive, the whole system of the connections between the pieces of wood not only must show functionality, but also speed, strength, versatility and economy. Referenced at Brazilian Standard for Wood Structures (NBR 7190/1997 - Project of timber structures) the sheet multi-toothed connectors, are analyzed using three test methods: tensile strength parallel to grain, tensile strength normal to the fibers and shear strength, all of them in two positions, αCH0=0o e αCH0=90o to four types of wood: Angelim (Vatairea heteroptera Ducke); Red-Angico (Parapiptadenia rigida (Benth) Brenae); Garapa (Apuleia leiocarpa (Vog.) Macbr) and Jatoba (Hymenaea stilbocarpa Hayne), belonging to the Leguminosae family and founded in several regions of Brazil.The purpose of this manuscript consists to analyze the mechanical connections with the sheet multi-toothed connectors through tests from NBR7190/1997

Análise da troca de calor em sistemas de injeção de termoplásticos – um estudo de caso: polipropileno

The purpose of this work was to define the processes through which the cooling of thermoplastics parts occur inside the mold cavity in an injection process. The plastic materials have become more widespread in the automobile industry and, among its manufacturing processes, injection moulding develops quickly, allowing the manufacturing of quality parts in great volumes. Data was collected from the injection of Volkswagen Gol NF 23X (Gol Generation 5). Using approximated methods for calculation for the heat Exchange inside the mould, in the cooling system, the required water flow was determined to properly cool the parts. Comparing the obtained value with Project specifications, it was verified that the method, in spite of incurring in some mistakes, is efficient in determining the flow of cooling fluid and serves as a verification tool for the parameters defined on project, and can be applied to simple projects. The definition of the cooling system, in practice, is dependent on innumerable variables and each case must be approached in itself, since the parameters for one product may not be ideal for another

Entre o convencer e vencer: estudo sobre as relações entre políticas de subjetivação e ideologia

Neste estudo desenvolvemos uma análise das relações entre a ideologia e as políticas de subjetivação na sociedade moderna através do rastreamento de marcas discursivas em peças publicitárias próprias das práticas de governo vinculadas ao autoritarismo. O corpus da pesquisa se delimita no diálogo com os registros que chegaram até nós por meio dos esforços de Victor Klempere, em seu livro “A linguagem do terceiro Reich”. Este autor nos coloca em contato com propagandas utilizadas na imprensa escrita e falada. Por meio da Análise do Discurso discutimos o sentido de “convencer”, enquanto recurso de argumentação e cartografamos os recursos simbólicos utilizados nas estratégias de “vencer” sobre o público alvo das propagandas políticas. Queremos observar as marcas dos processos de subjetivação que acompanham os deslizamentos das práticas políticas de convencimento para o exercício da violência concentrada nos termos daquilo que se expressou como um ato de “vencer” pela força física. Que processos de subjetivação se consolidam sob o jugo da força colocada em exercício por formas autoritárias de governos sobre os cidadãos? Como estas marcas reverberam em nossos corpos e limitam as possibilidades de expressão da vida? Estas são as nossas perguntas que nos acompanharam nas leituras, no trabalho do pensamento e da escrita.

Um Estudo de caso sobre a fabricação de engrenagens

Human evolution has always been linked to personal or group needs. This statement is based on observations of the day to day. With time, we can now choose from among many excellent techniques and materials that can be employed in the construction of this part of the machinery so important to the functionality of machines and equipment. When we look at a machine, we see that this is usually designed by combining a set of pre-determined in your project. Among the many pieces that we can highlight one of them is of fundamental importance, the gear. Gears are an example of the mechanical devices used by the older man, and are currently the most important components in the transmission technique. This is responsible for transmitting rotary motion from one shaft to another. Gears are one of the best among the various means available for the transmission of motion. Gears are the most important components of modern technique of transmission. The main purpose of a transmission gear is precisely transmit torque and speed. The requirements have increased significantly due to pollution and energy conservation. Nowadays, gear transmissions are required to transmit high strength through all his life together with the high demand on performance and sound properties. An optimal design for the gear you need a set of the most modern fabrication machines and cutting tools. In the following work is studied on the manufacture of gears, making the monitoring of a case study of the try out the installation of a gear grinding machine

Diagnóstico dos resíduos gerados nas oficinas mecânicas de veículos automotivos do município de São Carlos-SP

The mechanical garages do varied types to activities related to the reparation from vehicles such as change from Motor oil, change and cleaning from car pieces, motor rectification, among others. These activities generate different kinds of waste and wastewater that when disposed in an inappropriate way can pollute the environmentand cause risks to the public health. Despite the environmental issues that involves these enterprises, they aren´t object of environmental licensing and there are any rules that regularizes their activities with the goal of these possible environmental impacts mitigation. The environmental diagnosis proposed by the present work has as goal the knowledge of the possible environmental aspects and their effects in the environment, for establishing control measures and from that to generate subsidy for environmental normatization of the sector in the municipal level. Furthermore, it should also define practices as waste production reduction, separation of them at the generator source and convenient final disposal, as well as wastewater production reduction and treatment of them before its launching in the wastewater network. The environmental diagnosis was based on a survey realized in garages from the city of São Carlos – SP, in order to define the more important characteristics of this activity that are related to the environment and public health. From the obtained information from the survey and the interpretation of the data, subsidy for the municipal environment management of the mechanical garages were generated.

Cryptotermes brevis (Isoptera, Kalotermitidae): biologia e polimorfismo de imaturos

Cryptotermes brevis (Walker, 1853) é um cupim de madeira seca exótico no Brasil, pertencente a família Kalotermitidae e que possui uma distribuição geográfica bastante ampla, sendo encontrada somente em ambientes sinantrópicos. Esta espécie de cupim de madeira seca vive dentro de pedaços de madeira onde escava suas galerias por meio da alimentação. Estes insetos se alimentam do próprio ninho onde vivem e sua infestação é percebida pela formação de grânulos fecais sólidos que são expulsos de peças de madeira infestadas. Dessa forma, C. brevis causa grandes danos econômicos em áreas urbanas, infestando peças de mobiliários manufaturados pelo homem e estruturas de madeira como batentes, forros, rodapés, etc. Em uma colônia de cupins de madeira seca existem castas morfofisiologicamente diferentes, as quais realizam tarefas distintas. Entre elas estão as castas ápteras (soldados e falsos operários), e os reprodutores (rei e rainha). A maioria das castas de cupins são cegas e exibem comportamentos característicos que são utilizados na comunicação entre eles, como por exemplo trofalaxia estomodeal e proctodeal, “grooming”, antenação, “butting”, etc. Devido ao reduzido conhecimento da biologia dessa importante praga urbana, o presente trabalho objetivou elucidar as aspectos da biologia e do polimorfismo de imaturos nesta espécie de cupim. Para entender o polimorfismo de larvas e ninfas foi realizado um estudo biométrico em que mensurou-se a largura da cabeça e do pronoto e o comprimento do broto alar e da tíbia. Os resultados obtidos mostraram três ínstares larvais e quatro ínstares ninfas. Adicionalmente, foram iniciadas colônias que foram abrigadas em diferentes volumes (300 cm3 e 150 cm3) e tipos de madeira. Estas colônias incipientes de laboratório foram abertas após seis meses e mostraram uma média de 5 indivíduos por colônia... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

The objective of the present work was to evaluate Pinus’ glued laminated timber (glulam) beams and steel reinforced glulam beams, using PU mono-component adhesive in lamination step and epoxy adhesive to bond steel bars. The mechanical performance was verified through bending test, and the adopted method based on homogenized section, to considerate the differences between wood and steel mechanical properties. The homogenization section method proved itself effective in obtaining the stiffness of the parts in MLCA. The stiffness of reinforced beams increased 91% in comparison with glulam beams, differing only 5.5 % from value of stiffness calculated

Proposta de conector para ensaios de ligações CDE submetidas à tração perpendicular as fibras em madeira de pinus

The growth of urban population associated with the shortage of supply of public infrastructure such as hospitals, kindergartens, schools, among others, has reinforced the need to develop alternative methods that simplify the construction processes and allows for a reduction in these costs works. The conventional processes have increasingly been shown ineffective to solve the problem of demand for different types of urban and rural buildings. Given this fact, industrial construction processes can gain space and have proven to be highly interesting to solve the above problems, in particular, considering the cost-effective and time. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the influence of moisture on the strength of metal plate connections connectors (printed plate with teeth). For the sizing of the links between structural lumber using metal connectors with teeth prints; controlled process variables (drying of the wood and the different moisture contents), and finally found results and compare them with different literatures order to obtain a qualitative efficiency of the process. Some specimens had very low expectations, can be explained by the presence of bone marrow, and pre-existing cracks. Thus, the results were discarded for further analysis and more accurate results
