Dispositivo de microdescargas em gases na pressão atmosférica

This work describes the development of an electro-mechanical micro-discharges device operating at ambient condition of pressure and temperature, capable to produce plasma jets for surface finishing. The discharges are produced through a needle shape electrode hollow cathode type by which flows the helium gas. The voltage applied on the electrode is provided for an AC/AC switching voltage converter of full-bridge topology. The converter is energized by a power line of 110/220 VAC, 60 Hz and gives a 1000 V peak-to-peak from 5 kHz to 40 kHz square waveform output. The output frequency is defined by a control signal provided by an external signal generator. The equipment setup includes output acquisition of voltage and current and a photo-detector for photo-electrical measurements, which allows an optical characterization of the plasma jet

Dispositivo para auxílio de levantamento de pessoas portadoras de restrições físicas do leito

Recently technological resources have been used to facilitate the execution of several laboral activists. In this project it will be shown a device, which will help workers in healthy area to develop their activities, decreasing the wear of themselves and making the patient transfer to bed more efficient. Furthermore, this work will show a device project to transfer patients with motor restrictions. The focus of this device is to avoid fatigue and injury of workers, which will help the patient to decrease their discomfort and the risk of injury. In addition, the device will be developed and designed to be easy to use and with reduced fabric cost to facilitate the access of institutions as rest homes and the APAE

Concepção de um dispositivo fisioterápico: parapodium mecanizado

This paper presents a proposal to redesign a physical therapy device for patients with quadriplegia, called parapodium. With the help of the Association of Parents and Exceptional Friends of Guaratinguetá, it was possible to know the currently used device and from this it was conceived changes, allowing the increase of freedom of its central portion, in the down and across positions with mechanical drive . This adaptation is to introduce improvements in the routine of physical therapy professionals and reduce ergonomic problems resulting from repetitive strain during the transfer of patients to the parapodium. In addition to providing greater security for patients who require the use of this equipment. The proposed device comprises: wheel, gearbox and brake systems used for actuation, allowing a degree of turning of the rear post, along an axis which is fixed to the gearbox and the rear structure that permits posterior movement. The mechanism allows the rear post rotate from 0 ° to 90 °. The estimated cost to make the proposal is lower than the marketed parapodiuns, reaching the device's functional expectations

PIBID e ensino de línguas estrangeiras: o impacto no projeto Luz, câmera... action!

PIBID's subproject from the Letras course at a public university from the interior of Sao Paulo has, as a vision, the teaching of languages in a different way, where the culture is something to be known, not only mentioned, and, because of that, students feel close to the language learning process, for the language is not something to be learned just as grammar, it is, in fact, to be learned as something more complex than that, making the connection between student and language and its values. The students have, as an objective the knowledge and formation in teaching, by participation in public schools where they could put the theory learned during the Letras course in the university in practice with students that could benefit from learning new languages. The public school, mentioned in this research, offered the opportunity for the PIBID students to participate in a project that already existed in this school, where the students were supposed to produce a script based in a tale, and with the script, they were supposed to produce a short movie and a trailer. In 2014, in the first year of the participation of PIBID in the project, PIBID students were asked to choose a tale in the languages that are currently part of the subproject, for the students could use as a base to the production of the short movie. This project is called Luz, Câmera… Action! and the main objective of this research was to verify the participation of PIBID in the project. For such, it was used a semi-structured open questionnaire, which sought to investigate how students and supervisors from the school understood and analyzed PIBID's participation in the project

Dispositivo para o auxílio e segurança de pessoas portadoras de restrições físicas em piscinas

Being the hydrotherapy a treatment in water of great importance for children and adults with motor disability, providing safety and comfort is a very important task that is difficult to health professional without the aid of some specialized equipment. Generally imported devices are used for such purposes, these highly complex apparatus have a high cost and limit the patient's movement in water and exercise possibilities in some cases. In this work a solution will be presented to replace such equipment, using catalogs and computer modeling a prototype will be studied and new equipment will be developed to assist entry into the pool and it would also allow mobility to the patient in an aqueous medium. This safely mobility in the water increase the possibilities of exercises and the accessories founded in commercial catalogs make this project feasible from an economic aspect

Estudo histológico e comparativo das papilas linguais dos cervídeos Mazama americana e Mazama gouzoubira por microscopia de luz e eletrônica de varredura

O tipo de alimentação depende do ambiente em que o animal se encontra, sendo este um fator responsável pela alteração da morfologia, como a estratificação e o nível de queratinização da língua, e a funcionalidade da mesma. Dentre as estruturas morfológicas funcionais da língua, as papilas vêm merecendo destaque devido a sua estreita relação com a dieta. Foram utilizadas duas espécies de cervídeos: cinco Mazama gouazoubira e duas Mazama americana, dividindo-se a língua em três partes: ápice, corpo e raiz. Analisou comparativamente a língua de duas espécies por meio de microscopia de luz e eletrônica de varredura. As papilas filiforme, fungiforme e valada apresentaram na língua das duas espécies estudadas, e com a mesma distribuição, mudando apenas a quantidade e formato de papilas filiformes no ápice lingual e a quantidade e disposição das papilas valadas na raiz da língua, fator este que pode ser ligado à dieta dos animais. . Além disto, sua distribuição é semelhante à de outras espécies de herbívoros.

O canteiro do poeta-arquiteto: a conduta criativa de João Cabral de Melo Neto à luz de seus manuscritos

Neste artigo repensamos a metáfora do "poeta-engenheiro", ou "poeta-arquiteto", que geralmente caracteriza o processo criativo de João Cabral de Melo Neto, à luz de uma leitura genética de manuscritos de A educação pela pedra. Veremos que o "arquiteto" da metáfora provém da teoria de Le Corbusier, na qual o desenho (a concepção) determina o canteiro (a execução). No entanto, a análise de transformações de estruturas por meio de reformulações textuais nos manuscritos do poeta mostra que, por vezes, o projeto, ou intenção, se transforma nos trabalhos da página-canteiro.

(Re)significando os projetos cuidativos da Enfermagem à luz das necessidades em saúde da população

O conceito de necessidades é central no trabalho de Enfermagem. A Teoria das Necessidades Humanas Básicas, formulada por Wanda Horta, influenciou várias gerações de enfermeiras brasileiras e, possivelmente, ainda é a mais presente no ensino e na prática de Enfermagem no Brasil. Entretanto, há outras concepções de necessidades que podem iluminar o trabalho em saúde que, em geral, está organizado para responder a essas necessidades por meio da oferta de serviços padronizados, verticais e prescritivos. Ressignificar o cuidado em saúde e, em especial, os projetos cuidativos da Enfermagem à luz das necessidades em saúde da população requer adotar uma concepção de saúde e doença capaz de interligar aspectos individuais e coletivos.
