Análise experimental da conexão entre blocos segmentais e geogrelha de PVA

The test system connection segmental blocks and geogrids at the Department of Civil Engineering, UNESP - Guaratinguetá order to verify the strength of the connection system when subjected to different confining stresses. The present work aims to demonstrate the procedures for carrying out the test as well as the placement of concrete blocks. Were analyzed two ways of placing the blocks in the press. An entire block and two halves in the first layer, named position 12, compared to a different format, two entire blocks in the first layer, named position 21; also geogrids: single and double layer. From the data obtained for the peak strength of 20 tests it was possible to obtain the envelopes break in the connection for single and double layer. In 2011, the size of the concrete block used in the test was lower when compared with previous years. What resulted in significant decreases in the loss of connection in single layer and it was noted that there was no decrease in the strength of connection in the double-layer tests, despite the smaller area of contact between the block and geogrid. It is concluded that, through the analysis of geogrids after running the test, the concrete block is responsible for theforce that allows the movement of the geogrid due to the force from the ground

Interação entre universidade e escola de ensino básico: um panorama dos projetos de extensão do Instituto de Biociências - Botucatu

A extensão é compreendida como uma interação entre a Universidade e a comunidade na qual está inserida e como uma via de mão dupla onde a Universidade leva conhecimentos e/ou assistência à comunidade e recebe dela influxos positivos e reais necessidades, ou seja, constitui-se uma relação de troca de conhecimentos. As atividades de extensão desenvolvidas no Instituto de Biociências (IB) da UNESP - Campus Botucatu, por meio de projetos, são diversificadas quanto ao público alvo, quanto ao local de realização e também quanto aos objetivos. Ao longo dos anos, foram realizadas inúmeras atividades de extensão dirigidas aos professores e alunos das escolas de ensino básico, das quais destacamos os projetos de extensão relacionados ao ensino de Ciências e Biologia. Este estudo teve por objetivos identificar as atividades de extensão, desenvolvidas por docentes do IB, voltadas ao ensino básico, e investigar a percepção dos docentes sobre a articulação entre Universidade e escolas de ensino infantil, fundamental e médio. Os dados foram coletados por meio de análise de documentos, questionário e entrevista. Pela análise de documentos, foram identificados os projetos de extensão relacionados ao ensino de Ciências e Biologia e que possuem relação (direta ou indireta) com escolas do ensino básico desenvolvidos pelo IB nos anos 2006, 2007 e 2008, cadastrados na PROEX, vinculados ao Núcleo de Ensino, ao Programa Ciência Na UNESP e ao NADi - Museu Escola. Por meio do questionário, com questões abertas e fechadas, foram coletados dados junto a 15 professores coordenadores e pela entrevista foram coletados dados junto ao Presidente da Comissão Permanente de Extensão Universitária. Segundo os dados obtidos, foi possível perceber um aumento no número de projetos ao longo dos três anos, assim como um aumento na participação de professores e alunos do Instituto...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Análise eletroforética de proteínas recombinantes obtidas de Pichia pastoris

A glicerol quinase é uma proteína tetramérica que cataliza a fosforilação do glicerol a glicerol-3-fosfato, composta por quatro subunidades - sua análise eletroforética fornecerá apenas uma banda se for constatada a sua pureza num gel não desnaturante - e sua reação com o glicerol é dependente de magnésio e de ATP. A eletroforese de proteínas utiliza como suporte um gel de poliacrilamida, que é formado pela polimerização de monômeros de acrilamida ao longo da sua cadeia e ligações cruzadas de cadeias pela inclusão de um co-monômero bifuncional apropriado, usualmente a N,N’ – metileno-bis-acrilamida ou apenas Bis . A eletroforese de proteínas mais comum é a que utiliza SDS para um gel de poliacrilamida desnaturante. O SDS é um sal chamado Dodecil Sulfato de Sódio que tem por característica se ligar a cadeia proteína nos resíduos de aminoácidos apolares, deixando com a carga negativa, sendo assim, toda proteína fica com carga total negativa, migrando para o anodo na eletroforese. As técnicas de purificação utilizadas foram ultrafiltração e precipitação com ácido tricloro acético, etanol gelado e sulfato de amônio. A dupla precipitação com etanol resultou na recuperação de maior quantidade de proteínas. A coloração do gel com prata foi mais sensível do que Comassie blue. O gel de eletroforese mostrou quatro bandas, correspondentes às quatro subunidades da glicerol quinase quando revelados com prata em gel de SDS-PAGE.

Análise da densidade óssea de rádio-ulna de cães SRD utilizando o método de imersão

Imaging diagnosis is a medical specialty that uses imaging techniques to perform diagnosis. In diagnostic imaging various methods are used such as direct absorption of photons - SPA and DPA, radiographic photometry, the dual-energy radiographic absorptiometry - DEXA, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography and optical densitometry in radiographic image. The dog can be considered one of the most widely used animals in the study of bone diseases and searching for a reliable diagnosis, although not an ideal model for the study of osteoporosis, because these animals tend not to develop a decrease in bone mineral density. The objective of this study was to analyze bone density in mongrel dogs from the determination of the variation of density along the radio-ulna bone and also the mean value related to gender, weight and age of individuals. The density analysis carried out showed that for this data set, there is a significant difference in the case of gender and age of the animal and may generalize according to these variables. The only significant difference was found in the weight, which increases bone mass is related to weight gain through the growth of the animal

O movimento de inclinação lateral associado ao uso de calços na escoliose idiopática

INTRODUCTION: Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity and it can be influenced by the use of shoe lifts and lateral inclination in order to correct postural asymmetries. OBJECTIVE: To verify the effect of the use of the shoe lifts (lower and high) unilateral (right and left) during the movement of lateral inclination (right and left) for an evaluation of the postural angles in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. METHODS: A control group with ten participants without scoliosis and an experimental group with 10 participants with idiopathic scoliosis of double curves (thoracic right and lumbar to the left). Ten reflexive markers were fixed in the spine to determine the postural angles (alpha 1=T2T4-T4T6, alpha 2=T6T8-T8T10, alpha 3=T10T12-T12L2 and alpha 4=L2L4-L4S1)...
