1. Development of Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) Filled with Montmorillonite-Polypyrrole for Pressure Sensor Applications
A novel pressure sensing material composed of poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and montmorillonite-polypyrrole (Mt-PPy) was prepared using melt mixing and injection molding. The structure and properties of the PBAT/Mt-PPy composites were evaluated and compared with those of the PBAT/PPy blends. The PBAT/Mt-PPy displays a very sharp insulator-c

2. Characterization of a pediatric rotary blood pump
Abstract Introduction A ventricular assist device (VAD) is an electromechanical pump used to treat heart failures. For designing the physiological control system for a VAD, one needs a mathematical model and its related parameters. This paper presents a characterization procedure for determining the model parameter values of the electrical, mechanical, and

3. Conception, design and development of a low-cost intelligent prosthesis for one-sided transfemoral amputees
Introduction Modern transfemoral knee prostheses are designed to offer comfort and self-confidence to amputees. These prostheses are mainly based upon either a passive concept, with a damping system, or an active computational intelligent design to control knee motion during the swing phase. In Brazil, most lower extremity amputees are unable to afford mode

4. Automação do processo de soldagem a laser (Nd:YAG) para confecção das sementes de Iodo-125 utilizadas em braquiterapia / Development of an automation system for iodine-125 brachytherapy seed production by (Nd:YAG) laser welding
The aim of this work is to develop an automation system for iodine-125 radioactive seed production by (Nd:YAG) laser welding, which has been used successfully in Low Dose Rate (LDR) brachytherapy treatment. This small seed consists of a welded titanium capsule, with 0.8mm in diameter and 4.5mm in length, containing iodine-125 adsorbed onto a silver rod. The

5. Finite element analysis of actively controlled smart plate with patched actuators and sensors
The active vibration control of smart plate equipped with patched piezoelectric sensors and actuators is presented in this study. An equivalent single layer third order shear deformation theory is employed to model the kinematics of the plate and to obtain the shear strains. The governing equations of motion are derived using extended Hamilton's principle. L

6. Robô autômato para monitoramento de rebanho e medição da forragem do pasto / Automated robot for monitoring and measuring livestock grazing
The growth of the cattle is following the global population growth and has put strong pressure on pastures. A pasture overloaded initially reduces the productivity of pastures without due care end up becoming great deserts. This project is inserted into this context and aims to develop a robot automaton able to get around in the pasture, monitor the catle an

7. Otimização topológica de transdutores piezelétricos com gadação funcional de material: projeto, simulação, análise e fabricação. / Topology optimization of piezoelectric transducers considering functionally graded material: design, simulation, analysis and fabrication.
Piezoelectric materials generate displacements when they are excited by electrical potential and electrical potential when they are excited by force or pressure. These materials are widely applied in Precision Mechanics, Mechatronics, and Ultrasonic imaging areas. On the other hand, Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) are advanced materials, whose properties

8. Transdutores eletromecânicos de eletretos poliméricos com bolha de ar termoformada / Electromechanical transducers of polymeric electrets with thermo-formed air bubble
A sensibilidade eletromecânica dos transdutores de eletretos poliméricos resulta em muitas aplicações na engenharia, que motivaram a produção industrial de um filme não homogêneo e eletricamente carregado, denominado filme eletromecânico ou EMFi (ElectroMechanical Film). Um dispositivo alternativo a este EMFi, produzido em nosso laboratório, foi o

9. Modelagem endoscÃpica virtual do monitoramento de equipamentos elÃtricos de alta tensÃo
With the promulgation of the 10.847/2004 and 10.848/2004 Laws, the Brazilian Power Sector started adopting competitiveness as the main element for obtaining concessions in the electric power system transmission and generation sectors. In this sense, the power sector companies will have to strongly intensify the monitoring processes of the power system equipm

10. Sistema de controle e automação aplicável a secadores em camada fina utilizando-se instrumentos digitais endereçáveis / Automation and control system applicable to thin-layer grain dryer by using digital addressable instruments
Many grain-dryers models with different configurations and applications are encountered worldwide. Among those a thin-layer dryer makes it possible to perform detailed analysis of the drying process. With the results from this analysis results, the drying curves can be modeled and the deep bad grain drying process can be predicted. The thin layer grain dryer
