Compartmentation in the Guarani Aquifer System northeastern region of the Rio Grande do Sul State
(2021) [Journal article]This study aims to evaluate the structural compartmentation of the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) in the northeastern region of the Rio Grande do Sul (RS) state. For this purpose, an integrated analysis of 747 morphostructural ... -
Método para verificação automatizada de requisitos em empreendimentos habitacionais de interesse social
(2018) [Journal article]Uma das possíveis estratégias para melhorar a qualidade dos empreendimentos de construção é o uso de Building Information Modelling1 (BIM), que envolve inovações relacionadas à tecnologia da informação e mudanças em processos ... -
Influence of production systems on the properties of fresh and hardened shotcrete
(2018) [Journal article]In modern shotcrete operations, the mixing and pumping steps are carried out using different production systems and equipment. This adds an element of uncertainty to the process because of variables such as mixer type, ... -
Improvement in mechanical, physical and biological properties of eucalyptus and pine woods by raw pine resin in situ polymerization
(2021) [Journal article]A raw pine resin, which is a cheap, renewable and easily obtainable forest resource, was used to impregnate two different fast-growing solid woods (Eucalyptus grandis Hill Maiden and Pinus elliottii Engelm) and in situ ... -
Experimental analysis on the combined effects of corrosion and fatigue in reinforced concrete beams
(2019) [Journal article]Infrastructure elements, especially reinforced concrete bridges and viaducts, are exposed to a combination of degrading processes throughout their life cycle, such as corrosion and fatigue. The combined effects of both ... -
Standard formulations for cold dyeing routes of agates : an energy-saving option for artisanal and small-scale producers
(2021) [Journal article]Artisanal and small-scale processes of dyeing of agates are usually non standardized and often ineffective. In the Brazilian scenario, local arrangements need actions to improve the current processes and to minimize energy ... -
Effect of cutting conditions on surface roughness in finish turning Hastelloy® X superalloy
(2021) [Journal article]The study of machining nickel-based superalloys has assisted in developing new techniques associated with cutting processes and tools. Hastelloy® X offers ideal properties for engine manufacturing in the aerospace and ... -
Micro fibrillated cellulose reinforced bio-based rigid highdensity polyurethane foams
(2021) [Journal article]Rigid polyurethane foams (RPUF) are the most consumed cellular polymer in the world. Biobased polyols are sometimes used as raw material for RPUF but with a detrimental effect on mechanical properties. In this paper, micro ... -
Optimization of multiple tuned mass dampers for road bridges taking into account bridge-vehicle interaction, random pavement roughness, and uncertainties
(2021) [Journal article]Road bridge designs are based on technical standards, which, to date, consider dynamic loading as equivalent static loads. Additionally, the few engineers who perform a dynamic analysis typically do not consider the effects ... -
Painting method for hydroxyapatite coating on titanium substrate
(2019) [Journal article]Coating on prostheses and implantable devices is one of the ways to increase the osseointegration of these products. However, plasma spray techniques, that are normally used, present high complexity and high cost. In this ...
