Design gráfico da pluma de contaminação por compostos orgânicos voláteiss utilizando software CAD na investigação de passivo ambiental em um posto revendedor de combustíveis em Natal/RN

Among the potentially polluting economic activities that compromise the quality of groundwater are the gas stations. The city of Natal has about 120 gas stations, of which only has an environmental license for operation. Discontinuities in the offices were notified by the Public Ministry of Rio Grande do Norte to carry out the environmental adaptations, among which is the investigation of environmental liabilities. The preliminary and confirmatory stages of this investigation consisted in the evaluation of soil gas surveys with two confirmatory chemical analysis of BTEX, PAH and TPH. To get a good evaluation and interpretation of results obtained in the field, it became necessary three-dimensional representation of them. We used a CAD software to graph the equipment installed in a retail service station fuel in Natal, as well as the plumes of contamination by volatile organic compounds. The tool was concluded that contamination is not located in the current system of underground storage of fuel development, but reflects the historical past in which tanks were removed not tight gasoline and diesel

Lung cancer screening with CT: evaluation of radiologists and different computer assisted detection software (CAD) as first and second readers for lung nodule detection at different dose levels

OBJECTIVES To find the best pairing of first and second reader at highest sensitivity for detecting lung nodules with CT at various dose levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS An anthropomorphic lung phantom and artificial lung nodules were used to simulate screening CT-examination at standard dose (100 mAs, 120 kVp) and 8 different low dose levels, using 120, 100 and 80 kVp combined with 100, 50 and 25 mAs. At each dose level 40 phantoms were randomly filled with 75 solid and 25 ground glass nodules (5-12 mm). Two radiologists and 3 different computer aided detection softwares (CAD) were paired to find the highest sensitivity. RESULTS Sensitivities at standard dose were 92%, 90%, 84%, 79% and 73% for reader 1, 2, CAD1, CAD2, CAD3, respectively. Combined sensitivity for human readers 1 and 2 improved to 97%, (p1=0.063, p2=0.016). Highest sensitivities--between 97% and 99.0%--were achieved by combining any radiologist with any CAD at any dose level. Combining any two CADs, sensitivities between 85% and 88% were significantly lower than for radiologists combined with CAD (p<0.03). CONCLUSIONS Combination of a human observer with any of the tested CAD systems provide optimal sensitivity for lung nodule detection even at reduced dose at 25 mAs/80 kVp.

Simulazione CAD dell'impingement articolare con protesi d'anca convenzionale e a conservazione di collo in funzione dei principali parametri chirurgici e anatomici

Lo scopo del lavoro è quello di verificare tramite software CAD l’influenza dei principali parametri chirurgici e anatomici sul Range Of Motion (ROM). Sono stati costruiti 5 modelli, uno di articolazione sana(Senza Protesi), uno di protesi Convenzionale e tre di protesi Conservative o a Conservazione (Totale, Media e Bassa Conservazione). Per tutti i modelli sono state simulate le rotazioni di base e i cosiddetti movimenti critici, ovvero quei movimenti a rischio di lussazione. Le prove sono state eseguite per teste da 28-,32-,36-,40mm di diametro, e con la coppa orientata di 45° in abduzione e 15° gradi in antiversione prima e successivamente di 45° e 0°. Inoltre, per verificare l’influenza dell’offset sul ROM, sono stati costruiti e simulati i movimenti per altri 5 modelli che non conservassero il vincolo del mantenere l’offset anatomico. Variando il diametro della testa si registrano differenze apprezzabili in termini di ROM solo per i movimenti di Estensione e Abduzione per il modello di Protesi Convenzionale e di Abduzione per il modello a Bassa Conservazione. Variando il livello di resezione del collo si è visto come per i modelli di protesi a Media Conservazione, Bassa Conservazione e Convenzionale si misurano angoli superiori a quello del riferimento tratto dalla Letteratura. Diversamente per il modello di Protesi a Totale Conservazione i valori ottenuti per alcuni movimenti sono inferiori, poiché limitati da un contatto di tipo c-b. Le simulazioni dei movimenti critici confermano la tendenza di un ROM accettabile per i modelli di protesi a Bassa Conservazione e di protesi Convenzionale, i quali forniscono escursioni angolari sempre superiori a quelle prese come riferimento dalla Letteratura. Invece, le protesi a Totale e Media Conservazione forniscono valori inferiori al riferimento per i movimenti di Pivot e Roll, essendo limitati dall’antiversione della coppa (movimenti di ExtraRotazione e contatto c-b). Variando la posizione della coppa a 45°/0° i due movimenti Critici Pivot e Roll migliorano per i modelli a Totale e Media Conservazione, tornando in linea con il riferimento. Riguardo l’offset si nota come più si avvicina a quello anatomico che misura 46,2mm (da 37 a 44mm), più si riscontra un aumento in termini di ROM.

Progetto preliminare e modellazione CAD di dirigibile per riprese aeree

Scopo del presente lavoro di tesi è dimensionare a livello preliminare e modellare con software CAD 3D, un dirigibile non-rigido per riprese aeree di eventi sportivi o musicali. Il dimensionamento viene svolto attraverso un metodo tratto dalla bibliografia che si avvale di un processo iterativo che cerca la convergenza tra il peso ottenuto in base al carburante necessario per la missione da compiere e il peso ottenuto sommando tutti i contributi dei componenti del dirigibile, al variare del volume dell’involucro. La descrizione del metodo è preceduta da un’introduzione che descrive alcuni concetti fondamentali legati alle innovazioni che si sono susseguite nel tempo a livello di progettazione e dimensionamento strutturale dei dirigibili. Il dimensionamento ottenuto dal processo iterativo è stato preso come base per la modellazione CAD di un dirigibile equipaggiato con un sistema composto da una camera per riprese aeree e batterie per permettere l'alimentazione degli apparati video e di trasmissione.

Investigação e gerenciamento de áreas contaminadas por postos revendedores de combustíveis em Natal

Activities that have fuel subterranean storage system are considered potentially polluting fuels by CONAMA Resolution 273, due to the possibility of leak, outpouring and overflow of fuel into the ground. Being even more worrying when contaminate groundwater for public supply, as the case of Natal City. For this reason, the Public Ministry/RN, in partnership with UFRN, developed the project environmental suitability of Gas stations in Natal, of which 36% showed evidence of contamination. This paper describes the four stages of the management of contaminated areas: preliminary assessment of environmental liabilities, detailed confirmatory investigation of the contamination, risk analysis to human health (RBCA), as well as the remediation plan of degraded areas. Therefore it is presented a case study. For the area investigated has been proposed a mathematical method to estimate the volume of LNAPL by a free CAD software (ScketchUp) and compare it with the partition method for grid area. Were also performed 3D graphics designs of feathers contamination. Research results showed that passive benzene contamination in groundwater was 2791.77 μg/L, when the maximum allowed by CONAMA Resolution 420 is 5 μg/L which is the potability standards. The individual and cumulative risks were calculated from 4.4 x10-3, both above the limits of 1.0 x10-5 or by RBCA 1.0 x10-6 by the Public Ministry/RN. Corrective action points that remediation of dissolved phase benzene is expected to reach a concentration of 25 μg/L, based on carcinogenic risk for ingestion of groundwater by residents residential, diverging legislation. According to the proposed model, the volume of LNAPL using the ScketchUp was 17.59 m3, while by the grid partitioning method was 14.02 m3. Because of the low recovery, the expected removal of LNAPL is 11 years, if the multiphase extraction system installed in the enterprise is not optimized

Análise da transformação do uso da terra, vegetação e impactos ambientais por meio de sensoriamento remoto e geoprocessamento

The mapping of the land use, vegetation and environmental impacts using remote sensing and geoprocessing allows detection, spatial representation and quantifying all alterations due to the human action in the nature, contributing to the monitoring and planning of those activities that cause damages to the environment. The aim of this research is analyze the transformation ocurred with the land use and vegetation in order to detect environmental impacts during the period from 1962 to 1995, considering a test area in the district of Assistência and surroundings, in the Rio Claro (SP) region. In order to archieve such aim the authors used boolean operations available in the Geographical Information System (GIS) - Idrisi. The maps were obtained through the ordinary (conventional) interpretation of aerial photos, later digitized in the software CAD Overlay and georeferenced in AutoCAD Map. It's observed that operations such as crossing digitized maps of one specific area in two differents dates, using GIS, produce overall results that might point out expansion or retraction's trends of the mapped classes, as well as quantify the intensity of the phenomena.

Mapeamento do uso da terra, vegetação e impactos ambientais por meio de sensoriamento remoto e geoprocessamento

The mapping of the land use, vegetation and environmental impacts using remote sensing ana geoprocessmg allow detection, spatial representation and quantification of the alterations caused by the human action on the nature, contributing to the monitoring and planning of those activities that may cause damages to the environment. This study apply methodologies based on digital processing of orbital images for the mapping of the land use, vegetation and anthropic activities that cause impacts in the environment. It was considered a test area in the district of Assistência and surroundings, in Rio Claro (SP) region. The methodology proposed was checked through the crossing of maps in the software GIS - Idrisi. These maps either obtained with conventional interpretation of aerial photos of 1995, digitized in the software CAD Overlay and geo-referenced in the AutoCAD Map, or with the application of digital classification systems on SPOT-XS and PAN orbital images of 1995, followed by field observations. The crossing of conventional and digital maps of a same area with the CIS allows to verify the overall results obtained through the computational handling of orbital images. With the use of digital processing techniques, specially multiespectral classification, it is possible to detect automatically and visually the impacts related to the mineral extraction, as well as to survey the land use, vegetation and environmental impacts.
