Mobiliários adaptados para pessoas com paralisia cerebral: um levantamento das teses e dissertações produzidas no Brasil

The Assistive Technology makes the lives of people without disabilities more practical, but for people with disabilities it can make things possible. For these individuals can provide the conditions, making their limitations are not obstacles to their social and personal empowerment, and may contribute to their effective participation in tasks that were previously impossible, such as remaining seated correctly. A segment on which the necessary assistive technology works, is the adaptation of furniture such as chairs, tables, chairs-to-wheels for individuals with disabilities, as well as cerebral palsy. The study aimed to conduct a survey and brief description of theses and dissertations produced in Brazil on furniture adapted for students with cerebral palsy. We made searching in databases of libraries of major universities and federal state national banks, theses and dissertations. Nine studies were selected for description. It was concluded that there is a considerable array of professionals, both in engineering as the field of rehabilitation, to contribute in the adaptation, creation and even the manufacture of furniture for children with cerebral palsy and that the securities most studied are the chairs and their components.

Contaminación microbiana en las líneas de agua de las unidades odontológicas

Introduction and Objective: Microorganisms are responsible for multiple infections and pathologies; this is why it is important to control microbes that can be found in the triple syringe used for irrigation in different dental procedures. The aim of this study was to identify cultivable species of microbes (fungus and bacteria) found in some dental units water lines of a private dental clinic from Medellín, Colombia. Materials and Methods: Random samples were taken from 11 chairs from a total of 89; a sample of water of 500ml was collected from the triple syringe of each selected chair. The study aim to search for the presence of total coliforms, filamentous fungi and leavened Results: the average presence of microorganisms was between 40CFU and more of 200 CFU. Microorganisms such as Aeromona salmonicida, Actinobacilus sp and Pseudomona maltophil were isolated. No total coliforms neither fecal coliforms were found. Conclusions: the high levels of contamination suggest that there is a mature biofilm in somewhere of the dental unit water line, but the absence of total and fecalis coliforms suggest that the water had been treated.

Building an Interdisciplinary Academic Center: Opportunities and Illusions

This presentation will discuss the personal opportunities available to people of color to build university-wide interdisciplinary centers and the obstacles inherent in doing so. I Professor Smith will discuss the opportunities and obstacles involved in working with faculty members, department chairs, and deans to accomplish an interdisciplinary mission.

Matters of taste: the neoclassical furniture in the Italian portraits from the late eighteenth century to the Restoration

Analysis and description of the furniture shown on Italian portraits from the late eighteenth century to the period of the Restoration. We have studied real examples of environments still exist with their furniture, chairs, mirrors, lamps, etc. in different areas of Italy. All this to explain the refined taste and cosmopolitan of the characters painted in the portraits, that for this reason they were considered fashionable

Distributed Control Nodes for Material Flow System Controls on the Example of Unit Load Conveyor and Sorter Facilities

The Chair of Transportation and Ware-housing at the University of Dortmund together with its industrial partner has developed and implemented a decentralized control system based on embedded technology and Internet standards. This innovative, highly flexible system uses autonomous software modules to control the flow of unit loads in real-time. The system is integrated into Chair’s test facility consisting of a wide range of conveying and sorting equipment. It is built for proof of concept purposes and will be used for further research in the fields of decentralized automation and embedded controls. This presentation describes the implementation of this decentralized control system.

Auslegung, Konstruktion und Fertigung von strömungsmechanischen Funktionsprototypen mittels Rapid Manufacturing

Bei der Fertigung von Funktionsbauteilen für Strömungsversuche spielt das Design und die Komplexität der Bauteilgeometrie eine wesentliche Rolle. Ziel der interdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit der Lehrstühle Strömungsmaschinen, Rechnereinsatz in der Konstruktion und Fertigungstechnik mit dem Rapid Technology Center (RTC) an der Universität Duisburg-Essen ist es, das Potenzial der additiven Fertigungsverfahren bei der Herstellung von Funktionsprototypen für strömungsmechanische Anwendungen effektiv zu nutzen. An verschiedenen, auf dieser Kooperation beruhenden, Best Practise Beispielen wird gezeigt wie das Laser-Sintern in die Prozesskette zur Herstellung von Laufrädern u. Ä. in unterschiedlichen Größenordnungen integriert werden kann. In diesem Zusammenhang werden auch die Vorüberlegungen (z. B. durch Simulation), Wechselwirkungen und Folgeprozesse, die mit dieser Fertigungstechnologie verbunden sind, aufgezeigt.
