Abstract: The design of deep foundations is essential to ensure the safety and structural
performance of buildings, with piles serving as fundamental elements in transferring loads to
the soil. In this work, an automated calculation spreadsheet was developed to evaluate the loadbearing capacity and settlement of piles, using exclusively field data obtained through the
Standard Penetration Test (SPT). Some of the main well-established methods from the literature
were integrated, with the aim of creating a reliable and user-friendly tool. The proposed
spreadsheet enables calculations to be carried out quickly and in a standardized manner,
minimizing errors and facilitating decision-making during the design phase. It is expected that
this tool will contribute to everyday practice in the development of foundation projects,
promoting greater efficiency and safety.2026-07-09T00:00:00ZAnálise numérica da inserção de enrijecedores de alma em terças de aço formado a friohttps://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/500502026-09-04T06:31:48Z2026-03-20T00:00:00ZTitle: Análise numérica da inserção de enrijecedores de alma em terças de aço formado a frio
Abstract: Cold-formed steel profiles constitute an efficient and versatile structural solution in civil
engineering, standing out for their high strength-to-weight ratio, dimensional precision, and
wide applicability in modern construction systems. This study addresses the analysis of the
structural behavior of cold-formed steel profiles, with emphasis on the influence of web
stiffeners and slenderness variation on the structural performance of these elements. The
research was developed through numerical modeling using the Finite Element Method, with the
aid of Abaqus software, enabling the evaluation of the critical moment and the instability modes
associated with the analyzed profiles. The results indicate that the use of stiffeners can
significantly contribute to increasing the load-bearing capacity of the profiles, especially in
situations where local buckling predominates. However, it was observed that, in certain cases,
the insertion of these elements does not result in structural gains, particularly when the behavior
is governed by global instabilities. Thus, the study highlights the importance of a careful
analysis of geometric and mechanical parameters in the design of cold-formed steel profiles,
contributing to the development of more efficient, safe, and economically viable solutions in
structural engineering.2026-03-20T00:00:00ZDdimensionamento a flexão de vigas de concreto armado com protensão não aderentehttps://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/500452026-09-04T06:28:03Z2024-04-19T00:00:00ZTitle: Ddimensionamento a flexão de vigas de concreto armado com protensão não aderente
Abstract: In this work, the bending design of a prestressed concrete beam for a hypothetical
residential building is developed. The analysis of prestress losses is carried out, considering
both immediate and progressive losses, and assessing their effects on limit states for the design
of a 17-meter post-tensioned rectangular beam with non-bonded prestressing. The study begins
with a review of theoretical principles of prestressing and major sources of losses.
Subsequently, calculation methods are presented to quantify immediate and progressive losses,
using analytical models. Finally, checks are performed on serviceability and ultimate limit
states. This work provides a procedure for the bending design of such beams, offering an
analysis of prestress losses and their effects on limit states. Moreover, it is intended to serve as
instructional material for students and engineers interested in structural engineering,
contributing to enhancing knowledge and practices in this area of civil engineering.2024-04-19T00:00:00ZAnálise de transientes hidráulicos com o método das características e simulação computacional em Pythonhttps://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/498692026-08-27T06:21:33Z2026-07-15T00:00:00ZTitle: Análise de transientes hidráulicos com o método das características e simulação computacional em Python2026-07-15T00:00:00Z
