Electronic biomedical dynamometer for measurement, analysis and registration of palmar force and force information in time

The developed electronic biomedical dynamometer was able to measure palmar grip strength and varying forces over time in people whose physical capacity ranges from 0 N up to 1400 N. The mechanical structure is composed of two cylindrical PVC rods, two steel supports, one finger backing, other backing for the palm of the hand and a dynamometric ring containing resistive extensometers.

Telomers and the effect of the practice of physical exercises in their course

Characterization of the atmosphere to the passage of squall lines at dakar from 1968 to 2006

By performing a composite analysis of the vertical profile of humidity, temperature and wind on the basis of radiosounding data and rain gauge Dakar Yoff (Senegal) at 14 ° 44 N and 17 ° 30 W, in the period 1968-2006, we studied exchanges water, heat and momentum within the squall line (SL) and between it and its immediate environment. A similar analysis has been performed with the re-analysis of NCEP / NCAR for the period 1981-1995 for the specific humidity at a grid point near Dakar (15° N and 17 ° 30 W).

Sustainable practices: recycling of biomass of eichhornia crassipes in the production of briquettes

The search for alternative energy sources has driven many researches in the whole world. In this sense this study aimed to investigate the production of briquettes from biomass of the aquatic macrophyte Eichhornia crassipes, more commonly known as water hyacinth. The aguapé is taken as a species is harmful to the environment due to its rapid growth in ponds, in some cases reaching to cover the entire surface of the lakes. This fact prevents the passage of light and affect the oxygenation of the water.
