Verificação da eficiência do modelo de Mohler na resposta do comportamento de vigas mistas de madeira e concreto

The aim of this research study was to evaluate the structural behaviour of the wood and concrete composite system for bridge decks with emphasis on the metal shear connectors. Experimental tests were performed on composite specimens and wood and concrete beams with a metallic connector system in an X position, using CS100900-type screws. All specimens and beams were submitted to static loads until failure in order to obtain the strength and stiffness of the connection system. The experimental results for the stiffness of the beams were compared with the analytical results obtained through the Mohler model, presenting good equivalence for service loads. The experimental results obtained demonstrate that the most significant damage in composite systems occurred in the connectors' areas.

Inflammatory fibroid polyp (Vanek’s polyp): a case report and literature review

Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP) is a benign uncommon lesion (1%-4% of gastric benign lesions), originated from the submucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. Its origin is controversial and immunohistochemical studies of lesions have largely refuted the possible vascular, neural or smooth muscle origin. Recent studies suggest a neoplastic etiology due to a mutation, in some cases, in the alpha-type platelet-derived growth factor receptor gene (PDGFRa). Our objective is to report the case of a patient aged 70 years, with gastric IFP, comparing her immunohistochemical profile with those of other studies, and a brief review of the literature.

Produção de chapas de partículas com resíduos de madeira Cordia goeldiana

The aim of this research consisted in the use of wastes from tropical wood (Cordia goeldiana) with low density and the polyurethane resin (mono and bicomponent) castor oil based in the manufacture of particleboards, generating subsidies as application in rural and civil construction, as well in the furniture industry. The particleboards were manufactured with 15% of polyurethane resin content (one part of pre-polymer and one part of polyol), compaction pressure of 4MPa, pressing temperature of 90 degrees C and press time of 7 minutes. The physical and mechanical properties investigated were density, moisture content, strength modulus in bending and internal bond, both obtained according to the recommendations of the Brazilian standard ABNT NBR 14810:2002. The mean values obtained for these properties were systematically superior to the Brazilian standard requirement. This point showed that it is possible the use of Cordia goeldiana wastes in the particleboard production. We confirmed the hypothesis of a significant linear relation between density and the internal bond of the panels, allowing the estimation of the internal bond of particleboards.

Dançar no masculino: corpo e processos de subjetivação na sociedade contemporânea

Partimos da constatação do distanciamento historicamente efetuado entre o homem e a dança, iniciando nossos questionamentos acerca dos impedimentos localizados na cultura para tal configuração. Identificamos mecanismos de poder que estabelecem este afastamento por questões ligadas ao gênero masculino, refletindo preconceitos enfrentados por bailarinos e a criação do estereótipo do ser homem, baseados numa perspectiva empobrecida a seu respeito. Com isso nos questionamos sobre o que o homem perde ao deixar de dançar. Necessitamos tentar definir do que se trata o masculino, cuidando por abandonar os formatos fornecidos culturalmente, por estarem sob a ótica das relações de poder predominantes. Após empreendermos um esforço nesta direção, percebemos com maior clareza a função do masculino enquanto força criadora que, em consonância ao feminino, atua nas mais diversas instâncias do criar, num movimento constante que o sustenta. Neste momento nos deparamos com as formas socialmente instituidas destas duas forças e em como passaram a atuar após a perpetuação dos modos de vida patriarcais nas sociedades ocidentais. Aqui nosso foco recai sobre o processo de criação na dança e em como esta se encontra afetada com as políticas de dominação nos aspectos destacados como o gênero masculino, a multiplicidade e a intensidade. Estes aspectos, ao sofrerem limitações ocasionadas pelo formato estabelecido sobre o masculino, tornam-se pontos-chave para a análise da dança cênica brasileira em seu ensino e criação ao mesmo tempo em que mostram-se como potências de seu aspecto transformador. Percebemos processos de resistência às políticas dominantes de anestesiamento e colonização dos corpos, aqui focados sobre o homem, pensando o movimento como força capaz de subverter-se às formas dominantes limitadoras

Cultura, arte e sociedade: reflexões a partir da linguagem corporal da capoeira angola e suas linhas desenhadas no espaço

Dance-fight-game, art, religiosity, therapy, entertainment, ritual act, in short, "a way of being", are some of the various definitions/qualities attributed to the afro-brazilian cultural manifestation called "Capoeira Angola". Multivocal polysemic in its essence, Capoeira Angola is expressed in different languages which ranges from the types of touches of the musical instruments that make up the orchestra, through different types of songs, until we get the non-verbal communication established by the bodies of "capoeiristas" in the game and/or in the training body situation. The aim of this paper is to think of the line drawing in space, a significant problem in the execution of body movements of this practice. To address the relationship between line, efficiency and aesthetics of body movements, it is developed an ethnography in the Academy of João Pequeno de Pastinha-Sports Center of Capoeira Angola, based on anthropological interpretative approach, in which the concept of culture is semiotic.

Ensaios não-destrutivos de propagação de ondas em toras e madeira serrada de Pinus. taeda L.

In this paper it was evaluated the influence of the relative position of logs on the trees, the type of wood (juvenile and mature wood and pith) and the dimension of sawed wood elements on the velocity of propagation of stress waves into the material on condition. P. taeda L wood (43 years old trees) from Horto Florestal of Manduri (latitude 230 00’ south, longitude 400 19’ west and altitude de 700 m) São Paulo State, Brazil were used, considering its easy growth rings visualization and the better ju regions definition. Six trees were randomly chosen in the plantation. Trees were sawed into 4 logs (2,5 m long each. In each log it was delimited the central board (80mm tick) region and the lateral boards (25mm tick) regions, cons right hand. It were evaluated relation between velocity of stress waves on logs and the correspondent lumber (central and lateral boards), on green condition, on the three main region of the elements (mature wood results obtained revealed the concordance between velocities of stress waves in the material before and after the its mechanical processing. It was also revealed statistical differences between the velocity of stress waves at juvenile wood, mature wood and pith regions.

Calibração de um equipamento TDR (Reflectometria por Dominio do Tempo) para a Determinação da Umidade da Madeira de Grevillea robusta (Cunn.)

This study aimed to establish a calibration model of a TDR equipment to determinate thewood moisture of Grevillea robusta (Cunn.). It was selected alleatory, 11 logs of Grevillea robusta (Cunn.), it was dried in a regulate electric greenhouse at 40o C. During the dry process, the moisture was determinate, periodically and systematically by gravimetric and TDR methods. Through the gravimetric method, moisture vary from 125,88% to 6,62% while the TDR method, the variation was from 119,83% to 5,79%. The best model adjusted to the wood moisture in the determination of the function of relative dielectric constant, using this technique, was the exponential 50,20 132,72 140,27 K U e − = − ⋅ , with a R2 = 0,96, with indicator of trust or performance 0,97 they were classified as very good, according to Camargo and Sentelhas (1997). The correlation between the gravimetric method (reference) and TDR, showed to be equivalent for both methodologies. It was concluded that the TDR can be used to the determination of wood moisture of Grevillea robusta (Cunn.), in a precise and fast way, once it was established it calibration.
