Organização e gestão da manutenção dos ativos físicos do projeto Sonaref

Esta dissertação desenvolveu-se no âmbito da Organização e Gestão da Manutenção dos Ativos Físicos no Projeto Sonaref, que compreende a construção da nova Refinaria do Lobito na província de Benguela em Angola, com um orçamento de 6,4 mil milhões de dólares, propriedade da Sociedade Nacional de Combustíveis de Angola (Sonangol), dona da obra, em parceria com a multinacional Americana KBR (Kellogg, Brown & Root) responsável pelo desenho do projeto e fiscalização da sua execução, e a Odebrecht Angola que executa as obras de infraestruturas de apoio necessárias à instalação da nova Refinaria do Lobito, na qual a gestão dos equipamentos é responsável pela manutenção de todos os equipamentos do projeto. Possui um efetivo de 170 colaboradores (158 Nacionais e 12 Expatriados), controla uma frota de 141 equipamentos pesados, de 20 marcas diferentes (incluindo grupos geradores, torres de iluminação e máquinas de soldadura), e 47 equipamentos ligeiros. Durante o período de 2013 a 2014 teve um valor de aquisição de equipamentos orçamentado em 20,667,361.42USD, atingindo um valor residual técnico de 67% e contabilístico de 74%, perfazendo um total de 274,557 horas trabalhadas, tendo atingindo uma média anual de disponibilidade de 86%, e um rácio de equipamentos parados de 7%. A atividade manutenção está focada em dois grandes tipos de intervenções - preventiva, e corretiva/curativa - tendo esta última como causas principais, acidentes ocorridos e avarias (mecânica, elétrica ou outra). Porém, existem várias dificuldades, tais como a falta de um software de manutenção, problemas relacionados com a qualidade da execução das intervenções de manutenção devido à falta de técnicos especializados, num mercado com pouca disponibilidade de recursos, seja humanos com formação técnica adequada, seja na oferta de peças de reserva, o que obriga a recorrer a países terceiros, o que implica um tempo acrescido de espera. Constatou-se a necessidade de implementação de um software de gestão da manutenção e um processo de formação técnica especializada.

Influência de variáveis arquitetônicas no desempenho energético de hotéis no clima quente e úmido da cidade de Natal/RN

This master thesis aims to assess the influence of the design decisions on the energy building performance of hotels. The research is based on the integration of field study and computer simulation. Firstly, a detailed field study is carried out to identify the characteristics of hotels in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The items assessed are occupancies, light and equipment densities, types of air conditioning, total and monthly energy consumption, among others. A second and more comprehensive field study is carried out to identify the range of occurrence of architectural variables, with a larger number of buildings. A base case is modelled in VisualDOE, based on the first field study. Then, a first set of simulations are run to explore the sensitivity of the variables on the energy consumption. The results analyses were the base of a second set of simulations, which combined the most influential variables. The results of 384 models were assessed, and the impacts of design decisions were quantified. The study discusses tendencies and recommendations, as well as the methods advantages and disadvantages

Padronização e flexibilidade: proposta de um edifício tipo para uma escola técnica profissionalizante

Nowadays the acquisition of sustainable elements and concepts in construction has been increasingly discussed, improved and incorporated to buildings, since the sector directly interferes in the urban space and environment, representing environmental impact. In order to make a sustainable building (Green Building) it is vital to incorporate less damaging constructive practice, starting from the project until the operation of the enterprise, that means to consider an integrated process of conception, implementation, construction and operation. The more effective sustainable principles participation in architecture happens at the projecting step through minimal environment impact solutions. Among the issues varieties that goes with sustainability proposal of the buildings project, there were added to this work the elements that are directly attached to bioclimatic architecture, more specifically the climate variation, ventilation, lighting and sunlight, that directly affect the project conception. It is important to put in evidence that architecture role goes far beyond the simple activity of building spaces; it is the sequence of political, economic, social and cultural elements, having the users as the main apparatus to its materialization. Thereby this professional dissertation consists of an architecture draft for a professional and technological school in the Rio Grande do Norte State, this dissertation is based on the analysis of previous experience and the bioclimatic principles that implicate in building on hot and dry, hot and humid climates, and the use of strategic solutions that aim the optimization of natural light and ventilation

Vitalidade no centro antigo Teresina, Piauí Praça Marechal Deodoro: uma intervenção contemporânea em área de valor patrimonial

This study deals with the discussions of contemporary interventions in public spaces in areas of heritage value. The product of this dissertation is an Intervention Project to Marechal Deodoro Square located in Teresina/PI center. The starting point for understanding the theme of this study is to investigate the accessibility and vitality of a public space - through relationship between form and uses. The spatial properties of accessibility and visibility as well as the distribution of land use - factors were associated with distinct patterns of vitality - and compared to usage patterns observed in situ and statements from users obtained through the results of the questionnaires. In attention to questions about the building constructed, particularly in historical centers, considers the guidelines to define intervention strategies in the square, consisted in the development of simulations that after evaluation of results of redesign, was chosen the best option to meet the necessary requirements to the performance, considering the spatial properties of integration and visibility that meet these requirements. Therefore, the "Intervention Project" carried out for the Marechal Deodoro Square characterization proposed items are discussed: spatial structure, vegetation, road network, pavements, street furniture and lighting

A cena contemporânea aos pedaços : observação de um experimento pedagógico

We try to relate this research with other logic, to discover a path of practical approach to approach a creation composed of fragments and a search of parameters for the aesthetics of appropriation. Accordingly, we find relationship with the theater composed of fragments, where different styles are appropriate theatrical and representational styles are merged with each other. Discusses in the first chapter on the theater composed of fragments, and stroll through lanes of the strategies of some directors in the ways of the contemporary scene. In the second chapter we seek procedures and concepts of atmosphere Mikhail Tchekhov (TCHEKHOV, 1996), and the transition from point-to-point by Scott McCloud (2005). In the third part we describe the observation of the experiment conducted by the students of the Bachelor's Degree in Regional Theatre at the University of Cariri in Juazeiro, Ceará, in 2010. Using the methodology of "pesquisa-ação", observing that the scenic writing end of the experiment, called "Toque Me", and the presentation in the cities of Crato and Barbalha, in August 2010, contained elements of the strategies from theater fragmentary scenes and conceptual contents of contemporary theater

O entre do carvão ao corpo - em - arte de ator-brincante

I propose with this paper a reflection on the experiences contained in the creation of the body- in-art (FERRACINI, 2006a, b) that originated the show Rosmaninhos... This process was developed within the coletivo UZUME teatro from João Pessoa PB, through recreations and resignifications of the corporeity and physicality contained in the steps, loas, aboios, songs and choreography observed in the manners that Mestre Zequinha plays in his group of Cavalo Marinho (Sea Horse), resident in the city of Bayeux - PB, and starting from the appropriation of the text Hamlet of William Shakespeare. The body-in-art is understood in this work as a vectorial body that dilates its daily functionality, recognizing a potential learning area capable to generate creative escape lines that destabilize the "subject centered in an individuality and identity" (FOUCAULT apud FERRACINI, 2006b, p.14), being open to the differentiation of itself, indicating the possible existence of an itself-other and of the exchange-in-art space. This process of construction of the body-in-art based on Master Zequinha s ways of playing the Cavalo Marinho was methodically guided by the appropriation of the coletivo UZUME teatro of the stages of Observation, Codification and Theatricalization contained in the technique of corporal mimeses proposed by the LUME Teatro (Campinas - SP). That use resulted in two phases: Active Observation and Composition of the body-in-art. Through the repetition of these aesthetic matrixes of the Cavalo Marinho, the actors discovered actions that when, codified and organized, can configure their body-in-art, which created a vectorial exchange-in-art space to what was found in the Cavalo Marinho party. This search proposed the means of potentiating the actors' work when it comes to a preparation that allowed to dilate the scenic presence and stimulated the production of actions, which culminated in the mounting of the show Rosmaninhos...

Trajetos cênicos do grupo parafolclórico da UFRN:que dança é essa?

This paper aims at studying UFRN Parafolclórico Group, whose aesthetic formation is subjected to our analysis, specially at its two last performances, that is, Flor do Lírio (Lily Flower), 2004, and Debaixo do Barro do Chão (Under the Mud of the Ground), 2008. Three targets are envisaged here: to analyze the aesthetic ideas backing Parafolclórico Group exhibitions; to evaluate how their many folk elements interact with different artist languages in order to compose a certain choreography; and finally, to identify the aesthetic conformation placed behind the two different choreographs of the last performances, their trends and innermost features that differentiate them. In accordance with the Analysis of Contents (BARDIN, 2006), interviews have been made with the choreographers and the staff of the spectacles, resulting in elucidating answers to the understanding of their thematic axis. On the first chapter we called attention to motivating subjects as recollection, personal experiences, bibliography research, research in loco regarded as propelling forces of the creative works. Herein, folk culture is depicted as a dynamic process opening a frank dialogue with contemporary events and reinforcing their continuity. On the second chapter, we approached the aesthetic conformation and the scenic elements (costumes, light, scenario, make-up), integrating the studied spectacles and disseminating folk songs in various ways. As what concerns the subjects discourse, we have obtained support in authors like Robatto (1994); Lobo; Navas (2008); Burke (1989); Canclini (2006); Dufrenne (2005); Medeiros (2005); Pavis (2005); Silva (2005), among others. Those authors have provided us with an indispensable theoretic support which, added to the interviews, convinced us that the Parafolclórico Group s aesthetic conception tends to identify itself with the artist languages and other techniques of that Group. It also made sure that the Group s course aims at an aesthetic conception which is not limited to popular culture manifestations, like dance, but admits to play with other media in order to communicate its art. In view of this situation, we arrived to two conclusions: first: the group s interchanges emphasize the dynamic character of popular culture which, by establishing contacts with different realities, receives influences capable of extending its own continuity; second: the contemporary state of arts also improves multiple interchanges opening way, so, for many accomplishments in their field. Therefore, UFRN Parafolclórico Group inserts itself in the contemporary scenery by performing new evaluations of the popular dances as long as it puts them in contact with different technical, aesthetic, artist and culture combinations

O Sangyo em Dolls: um encontro do Bunraku com Takeshi Kitano

This work aims to investigate the relationship between the Bunraku theater and the film Dolls (2002), by the Japanese director Takeshi Kitano. To do so, it was initially done a theoretical study of this theater, detailing its key elements, and thus allowing a direct analysis of the film to be made. The main objective here was to reveal the film‟s connections with the Bunraku. The Sangyo refers to the simultaneous presence of three arts in the Bunraku theater: the narrative, the music and the manipulation of puppets. In Dolls, the director Takeshi Kitano presents a narrative through three different stories, all built with references to the Bunraku. As in the theater the three distinct arts harmonize on stage, in Dolls three separate stories will perform in harmony within the film. By confronting the Bunraku Theater with the film Dolls, the intention is to establish the connections between the scenic language of the Bunraku, the dramaturgy of Chikamatsu and also the cinema of Kitano. These connections allow to the understanding of how characteristics of a secular art, governed by strong rules and conventions, can be presented again through another language: the cinematic language and its particular set of codes and conventions

A ideologia da encenação: uma análise dos aspectos cênico/ideológicos da encenação produzida pela indústria cultural

The research that led to this dissertation adopted a set of scenic/ideological aspects inherent to the productions of the Culture Industry as its object of research. The intellectual output of Theodor W. Adorno and Max Horkheimer underscored the approaches on this subject, since it provides the same set of scenic/ideological features to be explored because, according to the authors, scenes produced by the culture industry are linked to the dominant ideology, since they act in favor of maintaining the status quo. The first objective was the definition this set of features inherent to the scene produced by the culture industry, through the exploration of literature produced by Adorno and Horkheimer, so it was possible to define a set composed of nine elements: Construction of characters as characteristic types; Stereotypes; Naturalization of Stereotyped language; Simplistic playwriting; Reuse dramatic formula; Love and sexuality as themes of plots; Utilization of tragic element; Objetive representation; Approximation of fiction and reality. The second goal was the analysis of scene produced by the culture industry nowadays, so that it was possible to verify if any scenic/ideological aspects indicated by Adorno and Horkheimer in the mid-twentieth century were present among the productions from this beginning of the twenty-first century. Through the analysis of three soap operas produced in Brazil in 2012, it was found that the nine scenic/ideological aspects as indicated by Adorno and Horkheimer appeared in the observed productions. Additionally, a new scenic/ideological feature, not indicated by Adorno and Horkheimer is present: the merchandising

Cuando la rabia prende

"No existe eso que se llama sociedad" dijo una vez la exlíder del Partido Conservador Margaret Thatcher; lo único existente serían entonces individuos que, buscando de forma egoísta su beneficio, contribuirían al bienestar del Imperio. Treinta años después, las revueltas de este verano en Reino Unido insisten precisamente en lo contrario. La afirmación de la exlíder conservadora se desvela además como una afirmación cínica; los actuales estallidos de violencia se hacen eco de las premisas ocultas de la misma ideología conservadora, esto es, de la "vuelta a lo básico" que alentaba la campaña de dicho partido en la década de los ochenta y que suponía la consabida exaltación de la familia, el trabajo duro y la individualidad, así como su corolario de satisfacción de los instintos tribales y territoriales. También podía añadirse un efecto ideológico que habla de lo social y económico como del estado del tiempo: se logra invitar a la gente a abdicar de su responsabilidad política al sostener que no hay nada que hacer, tan sólo adaptarse.

Estudo de oportunidades de melhoria de eficiência energética na Rectimold

A melhoria de eficiência energética num contexto mundial é, na atualidade, uma área de grande relevância, devido ao constante aumento dos consumos energéticos, por motivo das necessidades de desenvolvimento dos países. A procura de estratégias de melhoria neste âmbito em ambiente industrial tem o potencial de trazer benefícios comerciais e ambientais significativos. Existem uma infinidade de medidas de eficiência energética e racionalização de consumos, que quando devidamente aplicadas aumentam o desempenho das empresas, com a consequente criação de riqueza e um menor impacte ambiental. O presente projeto teve como principal objetivo o estudo de oportunidades de melhoria de eficiência energética na empresa Rectimold. Esta é uma empresa inserida no ramo da indústria de moldes para injeção de plástico. Uma das etapas do trabalho consistiu na análise global dos consumos energéticos através das faturas, referentes aos anos de 2014 e 2015, onde se verificou que a empresa não está abrangida no âmbito do Sistema de Gestão dos Consumos Intensivos de Energia (SGCIE). Seguidamente, foram instalados analisadores de energia para a recolha de informação detalhada sobre os consumos de energia elétrica. A realização da análise energética incidiu sobre as áreas onde o potencial de economia e redução de consumos será maior, nomeadamente na iluminação, na climatização, na instalação de energias renováveis, no tipo de contratualização de energia elétrica e na introdução de um Sistema de Gestão de Energia (SGE). Nesse âmbito, foram apresentadas diversas propostas para elevar o desempenho energético da empresa, cuja implementação representa uma poupança de consumo energético em cerca de 20%.
