Contra as Secas: a engenharia e as origens de um planejamento regional no nordeste brasileiro

Droughts surfaced in 1877 as a crucial problem for the birthing Brazilian nation. Engineers, who formed the country's technical and scientific elite, took it upon themselves to study, understand and fight the problem through planned actions of intervention on space. This work, based on proposals and discussions contained in engineering magazines and reports, aims to provide elements for the comprehension of how these systematized actions against droughts, in the Iate nineteenth and early twentieth century, contributed to spatial analysis and the formation of a (then-inexistent) regional and territorial planning discipline in Brazi!. Engineers, by taking up the position of masterminds in the country's modernization, guaranteed for themselves personal economic stability, social prestige and political power. By understanding nature, either as a resource to be exploited or an adversary to national progress, they contributed to the delimitation of the region now known as the Northeast. By seeking to understand the drought phenomenon, they created knowledge about the space they sought to intervene on; by constructing their projects amid political and economical difficulty, they changed the organizational structures of cities and country in the northeast. The proposals for açudes (Iarge water reservoirs) allowed the fixation of population and the resistance against droughts; the roads - railroads and automotive roadways - connected the sertão to the capitais and the coast, speeding up help to the affected populations during droughts and allowing the circulation of goods so as to strengthen the local economies in normal rimes. The adopted practices and techniques, adapted from foreign experience and developed through trial and improvement, were consolidated as an eminently spatial intervention course, even if a theoretical body of regional or territorial planning wasn't formed in Brazil. Regional Planning proper was first applied in the country in the Northeast itself, in the 1950s, based off an economical view of reality in order to achieve development. The engineer's work prior tothat date, however, cannot be dlsconsldered. It was proved that, despite facing financial and political hurdles, engineers had a profound commitment to the problem and intended to act systematically to transform the economical and social relations in the region, in order to be victorious in their struggle against droughts

Educação ambiental: O planejamento como instrumento de organização dos produtores da região de Atibaia, Jarinu e Valinhos-SP, para a adoção de práticas sustentáveis na produção de morango.

Desde 2006 a parceria entre Embrapa Meio Ambiente, Prefeitura de Atibaia e a Associação dos produtores de morangos e hortifrutigranjeiros de Atibaia, Jarinu e Região busca a fixação do homem no campo e no mercado por meio de produção integrada de morango (PIMo) a partir da qual gera toda uma rastreabilidade garantindo ganhos de produtividade e redução do custo de produção, sendo que a redução do uso de agrotóxico possibilita menor contaminação do ambiente, do trabalhador e do consumidor, com a produção de alimento mais seguro. Para isso a educação ambiental num processo contínuo de diálogo entre os parceiros, desenvolveu a percepção dos produtores, numa sequencia de Ver, Julgar e Agir a realidade, que culminou na elaboração do planejamento como um processo participativo de decisão e adoção desse sistema de produção. Os documentos referentes aos períodos 2007-2008 e 2009-2010 de planejamentos estratégico, gerencial e operacional desenvolvido durante o projeto consubstanciam decisões, orientam a organização dos produtores, e o realinhamento da ação da Associação aos objetivos propostos. Num processo de melhoria contínua o planejamento das atividades do período de 2009 a 2010 demonstra a mudança de perceptivas desses produtores, agora capazes de conseguir a certificação, de comercializar um produto diferenciado, além de terem conquistado uma relação de parcerias que lhes tem garantido a continuidade do processo de implementação da PIMo na região.

Síntese de pigmento cerâmico ferrita de cobalto utilizando planejamento experimental

Synthetic inorganic pigments are the most widely used in ceramic applications because they have excellent chemical and thermal stability and also, in general, a lower toxicity to man and to the environment. In the present work, the ceramic black pigment CoFe2O4 was synthesized by the polymerization Complex method (MPC) in order to form a material with good chemical homogeneity. Aiming to optimize the process of getting the pigment through the MPC was used a fractional factorial design 2(5-2), with resolution III. The factors studied in mathematical models were: citric acid concentration, the pyrolysis time, temperature, time and rate of calcination. The response surfaces using the software statistica 7.0. The powders were characterized by thermal analysis (TG/DSC), x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and spectroscopy in the UV-visible. Based on the results, there was the formation of phase cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) with spinel structure. The color of the pigments obtained showed dark shades, from black to gray. The model chosen was appropriate since proved to be adjusted and predictive. Planning also showed that all factors were significant, with a confidence level of 95%

Síntese do Poli (ácido láctico) por policondensação direta utilizando um planejamento fatorial

The environmental impact caused by the disposal of non-biodegradable polymer packaging on the environment, as well as the high price and scarcity of oil, caused increase of searches in the area of biodegradable polymers from renewable resources were developed. The poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a promising polymer in the market, with a large availability of raw material for the production of its monomer, as well as good processability. The aimed of this study was synthesis PLA by direct polycondesation of lactic acid, using the tool of experimental design (DOE) (central composite rotatable design (CCRD)) to optimize the conditions of synthesis. The polymer obtained was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), viscosimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). The results confirmed the formation of a poly (lactic acid) semicrystalline in the syntheses performed. Through the central composite rotatable design was possible to optimize the crystallization temperature (Tc) and crystallinity degree (Xc). The crystallization temperature maximum was found for percentage of catalyst around the central point (0,3 (%W)) and values of time ranging from the central point (6h) to the upper level (+1) (8h). The crystallization temperature maximum was found for the total synthesis time of 4h (-1) and percentage of catalyst 0,1(W%) (-1). The results of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) showed higher molecular weights to 0,3 (W%) percent of catalyst and total time synthesis of 3,2h

Aplicação da metodologia de planejamento de experimentos para formulação de massas cerâmicas para telhas

Rio Grande do Norte State stands out as one great producer of structural clay of the brazilian northeastern. The Valley Assu ceramic tiles production stands out obtained from ilitics ball clays that abound in the region under study. Ceramics formulation and the design of experiments with mixture approach, has been applied for researchers, come as an important aid to decrease the number of experiments necessary to the optimization. In this context, the objective of this work is to evaluate the effects of the formulation, temperature and heating rate in the physical-mechanical properties of the red ceramic body used for roofing tile fabrication of the Valley Assu, using design of mixture experiments. Four clays samples used in two ceramics industry of the region were use as raw material and characterized by X-ray diffraction, chemical composition, differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), particle size distribution analysis and plasticity techniques. Afterwards, they were defined initial molded bodies and made specimens were then prepared by uniaxial pressing at 25 MPa before firing at 850, 950 and 1050 ºC in a laboratory furnace, with heating rate in the proportions of 5, 10 e 15 ºC/min. The following tecnologicals properties were evaluated: linear firing shrinkage, water absorption and flexural strength. Results show that the temperature 1050 ºC and heating rate of 5 ºC/min was the best condition, therefore presented significance in all physical-mechanical properties. The model was accepted as valid based of the production of three new formulations with fractions mass diferents of the initial molded bodies and heated with temperature at 1050 ºC and heating rate of 5 ºC/min. Considering the formulation, temperature and heating rate as variables of the equations, another model was suggested, where from the aplication of design of experiments with mixtures was possible to get a best formulation, whose experimental error is the minor in relation to the too much formulations

Sanitarismo e planejamento urbano: a trajetória das propostas urbanísticas para Natal entre 1935 e 1969

The Escritório Saturnino de Brito (Saturnino de Brito Office), created in 1920 under the sanitaristic guidance of the engineer Saturnino de Brito, has a vast record of works throughout the whole national territory, even after the death of its founder, in 1929 at which point his son, and also engineer, Saturnino de Brito Filho, assumed the head of the company , with a compromise to continue his father s work and assure his administrative, technical and urbanistic principles up until the early 1980s, when that institution came to an end. The scarcity of theorical studies about this Office, alongside the importance of the contributions it made in countless cities, oriented the focus of this study on its performance in Natal, where it remained from 1935 to 1969, designing, executing and managing sanitationist works and the services associated with them and going through several political, economical, social, cultural and urbanistic contexts periodicized in this work into three moments. Thus, it is intended to analyze how the Saturnino de Brito Office behaved and adapted itself to the conjunctural changes that unfolded into each of these moments, and more specifically, to observe the forms of intervention adopted the principles, the instruments and the scope aiming to verify the transition of the sanitaristic set of urbanistic ideas into the urban planning as a development strategy on a local level

CORREDORES ECOLÓGICOS DA MATA ATLÂNTICA: VISÃO INTEGRADORA DO PLANEJAMENTO TERRITORIAL NO CONTÍNUO DE PARANAPIACABA -ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - BRASIL

La visión bioregional de la conservación es reciente en Brasil. El planeamiento de mosaicos de las áreas protegidas con las intervenciones previstas en la zona tapón es un alternativa para corregir los dibujos actuales de áreas de protección. Lo Continuum Ecológico de Paranapicaba en el estado de Sâo Paulo (Brasil) se puede considerar uno de los corredores restantes más importantes de Mata Atlântica, reducidos hoy solamente a 7.3% de su extensión original. El Continuum Ecológico de Paranapiacaba tiene un alto nivel de biodiversidad. Se caracteriza por la vegetación que presenta gran diversidad estructural, y por lo tanto, así como  la presencia de  las  especie-llaves  endémicas, que  requieren  los  esfuerzos  efcientes para su conservación. Las estrategias que vienen siendo adoptados por  los parceiros de  la conservación buscan demostrar que es posible construir las ofertas adecuadas del uso y de la exploración sostenible de los recursos naturales. El empalme de algunas iniciativas socioambientales con el mosaico de las unidades de conservación, busca una “buena vecindad” a las unidades de la conservación que se hallan en el área-núcleo del Continuum. Palabras clave: Mata Atlântica, bosque lluvioso, buffer zone, conservación, áreas protegidas Abstract The bioregional vision of the conservation is recent in Brazil.
