Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desenvolvimento e caracterização acústica de painéis multicamadas unifibra, multifibras e mesclados, fabricados a partir de fibras vegetais(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2009-12-01) BASTOS, Leopoldo Pacheco; MELO, Gustavo da Silva Vieira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8850986817571748In a time when high noise levels are part of people’s daily lives, the search for noise control is not only evident, but providential. Currently, noise pollution, to a worldwide level, is not more serious than air and water pollution only. In Brazil, the situation is not different because it is estimated that more than 15 million people have some kind of hearing loss degree due to this environmental problem. Acoustic devices such as panels, barriers, etc., when of high efficiency, generally, are of difficult acquisition due to high costs, turning, in many cases, their use impracticable, mainly for limited budget small-sized companies. Thus, alternative solutions, starting with new acoustic materials that are less costly and have satisfactory performance, emerge as a great option. Considering the global environmental trends, the use of vegetable fibers is a great opportunity to aggregate value, and technological development for agricultural producing countries, like Brazil. Beyond that, such fibers are easy to get, exist in abundance, are non toxic and derive from renewable sources. This work will present the methodology of development of panels made from vegetable fibers (açaí, coconut, sisal and palm) and binding agent based on acrylate and water, as well as the methodology used to characterize them acoustically on a scale model reverberant chamber, based on ISO 354/1999. These panels are made of pressed layers of fibers interspersed with layers of binding agent. The fibers are extracted, washed, dried, and treated when necessary, while the binding agent is obtained commercially. The panels sound absorption data are obtained through a four channel frequency analyzer using the noise interruption method. Comparison of results between alternative and conventional material based panels allows to the conclusion that the acoustical performance shown by some newly developed panels are very satisfactory, since their sound absorption coefficients were compatible, and in some cases, higher to those presented by conventional materials in a given frequency range. Finally, a numerical-experimental comparison is performed in order to evaluate the influence of sisal absorbing panels over the acoustics characteristics of a small classroom.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Influência do ruído de tráfego em edifícios e proposta de solução desenvolvida com auxílio de modelos numéricos(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-05-27) GUIMARAES, Erick Van Casseb; MELO, Gustavo da Silva Vieira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8850986817571748In Brazil, the number of houses and apartments that suffer the influence of noise pollution is quite large. Currently, this question gained important local attention when Belém-PA was elected the “National Capital of Noise” for several years in a row, according to data obtained by the IBGE. Among the most common types of noise pollution, the biggest complaint of society is regarding traffic noise, which is inherent to the daily life of any great city. While the traffic noise concerns increase, so does the preoccupation with a degree of discomfort from the population, justifying the development of means to quantify and reduce such discomfort beyond the means of regulations for this situation by Brazilian standards. Therefore, the condition of traffic noise, while a principal agent of annoyance for the population in which it refers to the noise pollution, it comes to justify the necessity to realize a study that aims at the development of elements of construction by means of new geometrics and composition of existing materials that minimize the penetration of traffic noise to the internal environments of these constructions. So, this work presents the results of studies of the acoustic behavior in situated constructions next to roads of great flow of vehicles which suffer interferences caused by the generation of traffic noise. So far, there were measures carried out in the field of a 25 story building in advanced stages of construction and was chosen as the subject for this study, which represents a numerical modeling of this building with the help of the software ODEON.
