Sustainability and CDM projects in the Brazilian sugar cane sector: a discussion on the economic-financial aspects
(IEEE, 2008-01-01)
The study discusses how the revenue from the sale of Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) can contribute to the attractiveness of investment in projects of bagasse-based cogeneration. It was observed that revenue from CERs ...
Performance of projection methods for low-Reynolds-number flows
(2014-01-01)
There exists growing interest in modelling flows at millimetric and micrometric scales, characterised by low Reynolds numbers (Re << 1). In this work, we investigate the performance of projection methods (of the ...
Managing large scale virtual environments using portals
(2004-12-17)
This article describes a technique for Large Scale Virtual Environments (LSVEs) partitioning in hexagon cells and using portal in the cell interfaces to reduce the number of messages on the network and the complexity of ...
Optical and mechanical design of an ophthalmic instrument: Slit lamp
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 1997-01-01)
This work has as objective to develop an interesting research line in the Optical Instrumentation area, that is to associate the Optical Design to the Ophthalmology area. The purpose of it is handling the optical design ...
Geotechnical properties of Brazilian weak sedimentary rocks
(2014-01-01)
The sedimentary rocks cover about 70% of the Brazilian territory. Large sedimentary basins, from the Paleozoic to the early Cenozoic, present a wide variability of lithology, raging from coarse grained rocks as the ...
PERFORMANCE OF PROJECTION METHODS FOR LOW-REYNOLDS-NUMBER FLOWS
(Int Center Numerical Methods Engineering, 2014-01-01)
There exists growing interest in modelling flows at millimetric and micrometric scales, characterised by low Reynolds numbers (Re << 1). In this work, we investigate the performance of projection methods (of the ...
Ubiquitous Notification Mechanism to Provide User Awareness
(2016)
Awareness could be defined as the knowledge that the user has of a particular activity, either individual or collaborative. Good awareness mechanisms provide information to the user at the right time so that s/he can know ...
Application of systematic methods in the electromechanical design of an agricultural mobile robot
(2013-01-01)
A current trend in the agricultural area is the development of mobile robots and autonomous vehicles for precision agriculture. One of the major challenges in the design of these robots is the development of the electromechanical ...
Hybrid visualization: A new approach to display instances relationship and attributes behaviour in a single view
(2015-09-18)
Visualization techniques have been widely used in dataset exploration. A common strategy is to employ different techniques to facilitate the exploratory process, enabling different perspectives from the same dataset. In ...
Automatized project of transmissions using delphi ambient and interaction with ANSYS
(2008-01-01)
Projects of machines make in a conventional way involving transmission through systems of gears consumes a long time because of the large volume the graphs and tables to be consulted, as well as the difficult equations to ...
