Natureza morta...edifício com vida: uma arquitetura sustentável para o Serviço de Verificação de Óbitos

Sustainability in buildings, while reducing the impact on the environment, contributes to the promotion of social welfare, to increase the health and productivity of occupants. The search for a way of build that meets the aspirations and development of humanity without, however, represent degradation of the environment, has become the great challenge of contemporary architecture. It is considered that the incorporation of principles that provide a sustainable building with careful choices of design solutions contribute to a better economic and thermal performance of the building, as well as functional and psychological comfort to its users. Based on this general understanding, this paper presents an architecture project aimed to health care whose the solutions adopted follow carefully the relevant legislation and sets his sights on the theme of sustainability. The methodology began with studies on the themes of verification service of deaths, sustainability and those application in construction developed through research in academic studies and analysis of architectural projects, using them like reference for the solutions adopted. Within the project analysis was performed a visit to the verification service of deaths in the city of Palmas in Tocantins, subsidizing information that, plus the relevant legislation, led to functional programming and pre-dimensional of the building to be designed. The result of this programming environments were individual records with information from environmental restrictions, space required for the development of activities, desirable flow and sustainability strategies, that can be considered as the first product of relevance of the professional master's degree. Finally we have outlined the basic design architecture of a Verification Service of Death SVO/RN (in portuguese), whose process of projecting defined as a guiding line of work four points: the use of bioclimatic architecture as the main feature projectual, the use of resources would provide minimal harm to the environment, the use of modulation and structure to the building as a form of rationalization and finally the search for solutions that ensure environmental and psychological comfort to users. Importantly to highlight that, besides owning a rare theme in literature that refers to architectural projects, the whole project was drawn up with foundations in projective criteria that contribute to environmental sustainability, with emphasis on thermal performance, energy efficiency and reuse of rainwater

La eficiencia agronómica demuestra que el tratamiento especial está en el rango óptimo de ganancia productiva con 17.17 kgmaiz/kg/N. La aplicación de fertilizantes especiales (Fertimaiz y Nitro xtend) presento mayor rentabilidad económica indicando que al aplicar estos fertilizantes especiales por cada córdoba invertido se recupera el córdoba invertido más C$ 2.19. Los Principales Insectos encontrados en el cultivo durante la época de verano fueron en su mayoría insectos plagas con un 71% con respecto a un 29% los insectos benéficos, entre las plagas con mayor incidencia tenemos a la chicharrita del maíz (Dalbulus maidis (De Long & Wolcott, 1923)) con un 75% de la población de insectos plagas. Para el análisis de datos se utilizó el programa de INFOSTAT.

A organização do processo de projeto de arquitetura no meio profissional: uma análise da produção em escritórios

This paper examines, through case studies, the organization of the production process of architectural projects in architecture offices in the city of Natal, specifically in relation to building projects. The specifics of the design process in architecture, the production of the project in a professional field in Natal, are studied in light of theories of design and its production process. The survey, in its different phases, was conducted between March 2010 and September 2012 and aimed to identify, understand, and analyze comparatively, by mapping the design process, the organization of production of building projects in two offices in Natal, checking as well the relationships of their agents during the process. The project was based on desk research and exploration, adopting, for both, data collection tools such as forms, questionnaires, and interviews. With the specific aim of mapping the design process, we adopted a technique that allows obtaining the information directly from employee agents involved in the production process. The technique consisted of registering information by completing daily, during or at the end of the workday, an individual virtual agenda, in which all agent collaborators described the tasks performed. The data collected allowed for the identification of the organizational structure of the office, its hierarchy, the responsibilities of agents, as well as the tasks performed by them during the two months of monitoring at each office. The research findings were based on analyses of data collected in the two offices and on comparative studies between the results of these analyses. The end result was a diagnostic evaluation that considered the level of organization and elaborated this perspective, as well as proposed solutions aimed at improving both the organization of the process and the relationships between the agents under the lens analyzed

Simulation of a resonant inverter

Mostly developed since the Industrial Revolution, the automation of systems and equipment around us is responsible for a technological progress and economic growth without precedents, but also by a relentless energy dependence. Currently, fossil fuels still tend to come as the main energy source, even in developed countries, due to the ease in its extraction and the mastery of the technology needed for its use. However, the perception of its ending availability, as well as the environmental impact of this practice has led to a growing energy production originated from renewable sources. Easy maintenance, coupled with the fact that they are virtually inexhaustible, makes the solar and wind energy very promising solutions. In this context, this work proposes to facilitate energy production from these sources. To this end, in this work the power inverter is studied, which is an equipment responsible for converting DC power available by solar or wind power in traditional AC power. Then it is discussed and designed a new architecture which, in addition to achieve a high energy e - ciency, has also the ability to adapt to the type of conversion desired by the user, namely if he wants to sell electricity to the power grid, be independent of it or bet on a self consumption system. In order to achieve the promised energy e ciency, the projected inverter uses a resonant DC-DC converter, whose architecture signi cantly decreases the energy dissipated in the conversion, allowing a higher power density. The adaptability of the equipment is provided by an adaptive control algorithm, responsible for assessing its behavior on every iteration and making the necessary changes to achieve maximum stability throughout the process. To evaluate the functioning of the proposed architecture, a simulation is presented using the PLECS simulation software.

Amplificador de RF Doherty assimétrico de 2-vias

Os atuais esquemas de modulação e acesso ao meio, tais como o Wide- Band Code-Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) ou Orthogonal Frequency- Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), que são otimizados para a gestão eficiente do espetro electromagnético e elevada taxa de transmissão, originam sinais de elevado Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) e requisitos de linearidade rigorosos. As arquiteturas de amplificação tradicionais, i.e. baseadas no operação em modo de corrente do dispositivo ativo, são incapazes de satisfazer estes requisitos em simultâneo. Assim, o amplificador de potência (do inglês, Power Ampli_er (PA)) incorre numa degradação significativa de rendimento energético em favor de maior linearidade, aumentando simultaneamente os custos de operação das estacões base para os operadores de telecomunicações móveis e o impacte ambiental. Este trabalho foca-se no estudo da arquitetura Doherty, a principal solução encontrada para melhorar o compromisso linearidade/rendimento para aplicações em estações-base de comunicações móveis. Para tal, são expostos os princípios básicos de amplificadores de rádio frequência assim como a análise teórica do tradicional PA Doherty (do inglês, Doherty Power Amplifier (DhPA)) de duas vias e suas variantes. O estudo _e complementado com o projeto e implementação de um PA excitador, em classe-AB, e de um DhPA de elevada potência, colocando-se em prática a teoria e técnicas de projeto estudadas ao longo deste trabalho, aliadas aos desafios da implementação com dispositivos reais de elevada potência.

Da colônia ao shopping: um estudo da evolução tipológica da arquitetura hospitalar em Natal

A conceptual discussion on architectural type and its role in theory and practice supports the construction of an analytical tool used for recognizing the typological evolution of hospital architecture in Western societies. The same tool is applied to analyze the typological evolution of hospital architecture in Natal, Brazil, through a sample of eighteen hospitals built in the city since the beginnings of 20th century. The conclusion is that typological evolution in Natal is almost the same as occidental one, except for a few singularities that can be explained by local social and economic development

Valorización simbólica del Queso Crema de Chiapas, un queso mexicano tradicional con calidad de origen

El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en explorar el valor simbólico que posee un queso tradicional mexicano, el Queso Crema de Chiapas. Para ello, se recorrió un largo camino de caracterización técnica de los rasgos fisicoquímicos, microbiológicos y sensoriales del producto, así como también de sus canales de comercialización y su red de valor. Una vez que se conocieron y se identificaron los aspectos tecnológicos mensurables, que imparten las características especiales al Queso Crema de Chiapas. La presente investigación mostró la existencia de aspectos subjetivos que aportan un valor y significado a este queso genuino; aspectos determinados por la sociedad, y en especial por los productores. El simbolismo es un rasgo asignado por las personas; se trata de un concepto subjetivo que está determinado por la necesidade, y fundamentado por la historia, la cultura, la idiosincrasia y su forma de vida. Estos valores favorecen la presencia del queso en el mercado, lo que contribuye a su preservación como patrimonio alimentario. Esta investigación se realizó con un enfoque antropológico, cualitativo-cuantitativo y observacional en campo, que se complementó con investigaciones anteriores, demostrando el valor de este alimento identitario de Chiapas. Sus resultados pueden ser empleados como instrumento para promover acciones de valorización adecuadas y contribuir al desarrollo socioeconómico y cultural de su región de origen.

Las carencias de la prensa tradicional, un lastre para el periodismo emprendedor

Introducción: La prensa tradicional ha heredado a la digital cuatro retos; cada uno de ellos es objeto de análisis en esta investigación: atraer nuevos lectores con narrativas informativas multimedia, generar estrategias de proximidad con sus usuarios, crear nuevos modelos de negocio y proyectarse como espacio profesional que refleje la feminización de la carrera de periodismo. Metodología: Este artículo presenta los resultados de un análisis de contenido aplicado a 281 medios creados por el periodismo emprendedor. Resultados y conclusiones: Los resultados de este estudio constatan que el periodismo emprendedor no ha innovado en la presentación de la información (utiliza como principal reclamo la imagen fija). Adoptan el mismo modelo de negocio basado en la publicidad. Carecen de canales para establecer feedbacks con los usuarios. Por último, igual que el medio en papel, no es un espacio para el empoderamiento femenino.
