Aplicació de verificació i control de codi de barres i datamatrix

A les línies de producció de l’empresa Laboratorios Hipra, s’ha plantejat imprimir els codis de les caixes mitjançant nous làsers amb la tècnica de delineat làser, amb aquests nous models de làser es vol imprimir codis datamatrix. Per tal que això sigui possible, és molt important poder tenir un control de les impressions realitzades pel làser, ja que en cas contrari, podrien empaquetar-se caixes amb un marcatge erroni. S’ha dissenyatuna aplicació capaç de verificar i controlar les impressions realitzades pels làsers. Aquesta aplicació ha de ser capaç de verificar i controlar les caixes marcades tant amb codis de barres com amb datamatrix, a més a més de mostrar totes les dades dels marcatges per una pantalla SCADA. L’aplicació també incorpora un sistema d’expulsió de les caixes amb un marcatge d’inferior qualitat a la desitjada en cada moment

Evolució i anàlisi del metabolisme ambiental del polígon industrial. El cas de Maó (Menorca)

El polígon industrial de Maó, POIMA, és un dels principals motors econòmics de l’illa de Menorca. La Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) en col·laboració amb l’Observatori Socioambiental de Menorca (OBSAM), ha fet un projecte d’anàlisi de l’evolució històrica i del metabolisme actual del polígon. L’estudi es centra en 5 vectors; usos del sòl, energètic, hídric, materials i mobilitat dels quals les dades han estat obtingudes a partir d’enquestes, entrevistes a les empreses i observacions directes semi-quantitatives. Com a resultat es presenten diverses propostes de millora per augmentar l’eficiència de POIMA, analitzant el potencial d’autosuficiència energètic i hídric, reduint l’impacte ambiental i reutilitzant els residus com a recursos entre empreses, sinèrgies.

Small-scale non-industrial private forest ownership in the United States : rationale and implications for forest management

Abstract

Waste management policies for industrial symbiosis development: case studies in European countries

Industrial symbiosis (IS) emerged as a self-organizing business strategy among firms that are willing to cooperate to improve their economic and environmental performance. The adoption of such cooperative strategies relates to increasing costs of waste management, most of which are driven by policy and legislative requirements. Development of IS depends on an enabling context of social, informational, technological, economical and political factors. The power to influence this context varies among the agents involved such as the government, businesses or coordinating entities. Governmental intervention, as manifested through policies, could influence a wider range of factors; and we believe this is an area which is under-researched. This paper aims to critically appraise the waste policy interventions from supra-national to sub-national levels of government. A case study methodology has been applied to four European countries i.e. Denmark, the UK, Portugal and Switzerland, in which IS emerged or is being fostered. The findings suggest that there are commonalities in policy instruments that may have led to an IS enabling context. The paper concludes with lessons learnt and recommendations on shaping the policy context for IS development.

Improvement of rehabilitation possibilities with the MotionMaker (TM)

"MotionMaker (TM)" is a stationary programmable test and training system for the lower limbs developed at the 'Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne' with the 'Fondation Suisse pour les Cybertheses'.. The system is composed of two robotic orthoses comprising motors and sensors, and a control unit managing the trans-cutaneous electrical muscle stimulation with real-time regulation. The control of the Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) induced muscle force necessary to mimic natural exercise is ensured by the control unit which receives a continuous input from the position and force sensors mounted on the robot. First results with control subjects showed the feasibility of creating movements by such closed-loop controlled FES induced muscle contractions. To make exercising with the MotionMaker (TM) safe for clinical trials with Spinal Cord Injured (SCI) volunteers, several original safety features have been introduced. The MotionMaker (TM) is able to identify and manage the occurrence of spasms. Fatigue can also be detected and overfatigue during exercise prevented.

Seleção de clones de batata para processamento industrial em condições de clima subtropical e temperado

O objetivo deste trabalho foi selecionar clones de batata para processamento industrial, cultivados em condições de clima subtropical e temperado do Sul do Brasil. Foram avaliados 30 clones avançados e três cultivares (testemunhas), na primavera de 2007 e 2008, e no outono de 2008, em Júlio de Castilhos, RS (condição de clima subtropical), e no verão de 2008 e 2009, em São Joaquim, SC (condição de clima temperado). Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso, em arranjo fatorial (33 clones em 5 ambientes), com duas ou três repetições de dez covas. Foram avaliados: a produção por cova, a aparência, a cor de chips e os teores de matéria seca e de açúcares redutores dos tubérculos. Houve interação significativa entre clones e ambientes para todas as características avaliadas, exceto quanto à cor de chips. A produção por cova e o teor de matéria seca dos tubérculos foram maiores no cultivo de verão. As condições ambientais de cultivo afetaram todos os caracteres avaliados. As condições de cultivo do Sul do Brasil possibilitam a seleção de clones de batata, com suficiente teor de matéria seca, para atender às exigências da indústria de processamento de batata.

Smooth transition or permanent exit? Evidence on job prospects of displaced industrial workers

This article examines the job prospects of displaced industrial workers in Switzerland. Based on a survey of 1,203 workers who were dismissed after their manufacturing plants closed down, we analyse the determinants of re-employment, the sector of re-employment and the change in wages. Two years after displacement, a majority of workers were back in employment: 69% were re-employed, 17% un-employed and 11% retired. Amongst re-employed workers, two thirds found a job in manufacturing and one third in services. Contrary to a common belief, low-end services are not the collecting vessel of redundant industrial workers. Displaced workers aged 55 and older seem particularly vulnerable after a plant closes down: over 30% were long-term unemployed, and those older workers who found a new job suffered disproportionate wage losses. Advanced age-and not low education-appears as the primary handicap after mass redundancy.
