Estudo comparativo entre dois processos construtivos sob o ponto de vista de sua influência na formação do fluxo de caixa de empreendimentos imobiliários habitacionais
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnologico. Programa de Pós-graduação em Engenharia CivilEste trabalho faz a investigação das questões ligadas às finanças de um empreendimento habitacional, definindo como problemática de estudo, buscando investigar se o processo construtivo adotado interfere no fluxo de caixa durante o ciclo de produção. Objetiva-se verificar os ingressos e os desembolsos financeiros de um empreendimento imobiliário habitacional e retirar dados e conclusões, visando auxiliar na investigação da viabilidade econômico-financeira do sistema construtivo que aplica a alvenaria estrutural com blocos de concreto. A definição de uma hipótese parte do princípio de que a tecnologia construtiva pode interferir no fluxo de caixa de um empreendimento habitacional. Uma atenção especial é dada ao desenvolvimento do fluxo de caixa e a importância de tê-lo como uma ferramenta para o auxílio à definição das estratégias e gestão de empresas. A metodologia utilizada envolve a revisão da literatura em obras pertinentes ao tema e o estudo do fluxo de caixa de um empreendimento localizado no município de Umuarama/PR. Como resultado, obteve-se a resposta de que o fluxo de desembolsos financeiros do processo construtivo em alvenaria estrutural não é muito diferente do processo construtivo em concreto armado com fechamento em tijolos cerâmicos furados

High-resolution clean-sc
In this paper a high-resolution extension of CLEAN-SC is proposed: HR-CLEAN-SC. Where CLEAN-SC uses peak sources in “dirty maps” to define so-called source components, HR-CLEAN-SC takes advantage of the fact that source components can likewise be derived from points at some distance from the peak, as long as these “source markers” are on the main lobe of the Point Spread Function (PSF). This is very useful when sources are closely spaced together, such that their PSFs interfere. Then, alternative markers can be sought in which the relative influence by PSFs of other source positions is minimised. For those markers the source components better agree with the actual sources, which allows for better estimation of their locations and strengths. This paper outlines the theory needed to understand this approach and discusses applications to 2D and 3D microphone array simulations with closely spaced sources

Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy with high strength at elevated temperatures due to a hierarchical microstructure
Al-Mg alloys are normally prone to lose part of their yield and tensile strength at high temperatures due to insufficient thermal stability of the microstructure. Here, we present a Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy demonstrating high strength at elevated temperatures. The microstructure contains Al4Ca phases distributed as a network along the grain boundary and Al3(Sc,Zr) nano-particles dispersed within the grains. The microstructure evolution and age-hardening analysis indicate that the combination of an Al4Ca network and Sc-rich nano-particles leads to excellent thermal stability even upon aging at 300 °C. The tensile strength of the alloy for temperatures up to 250 °C is significantly improved by an aging treatment and is comparable with the commercial heat-resistant aluminum alloys, i.e., A356 and A319. At a high temperature of 300 °C, the tensile strength is superior to the above-mentioned commercial alloys, even more so when expressed as the specific strength due to the low density of Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy. The excellent high-temperature strength results from a synergistic effect of solid solution strengthening, grain boundary strengthening and nanoparticle order strengthening.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Novel Aerospace Material
SC-Square: Overview to 2021.
This extended abstract was written to accompany an invited talk at the 2021 SC-Square Workshop, where the author was asked to give an overview of SC-Square progress to date. The author first reminds the reader of the definition of SC-Square, then briefly outlines some of the history, before picking out some (personal) scientific highlights
