A compatibilidade entre o conceito de uniforme de combate da Força Aérea Brasileira e os ambientes operacionais prospectados pela Estratégia Nacional de Defesa
Authors: Bittencourt Fernanda Maria Andrade
Published: December 2024

This research aimed to analyze qualitatively the compatibility between the concept of battle uniforms currently in use in the Brazilian Air Force and the performance environments prospected by the National Defense Strategy to the Force. Pragmatist method was used, based on the peircean semiotic theory and the conceptual foundations of design, to infer the concept which was intrinsic to the 10th uniform from the Regulation of the Uniforms for the Air Force Military Personnel. From this analysis, it was inferred that this uniform was designed as a battle uniform of medium technology, for the Brazilian Air Force military personnel, partially adequate to be employed in campaign, during the day or at night, in the jungle and subtropical rainforest. However, it was identified that the potential operational areas of the Force are occupied by many different biomes in Brazil and worldwide, with the aggravating factor that, in its prioritary operational environment, the Amazon, similar diversity occurs as savannas, grasslands and rainforest coexist in the same biome. Therefore, based on the semiotic-pragmatic logic, this research concluded that the concept of the battle uniform currently in use in the Brazilian Air Force may be considered only partially compatible with the operational areas prospected by the National Defense Strategy to the Force where the biomes Amazon and Atlantic Rainforest or other tropical moist forests are present and incompatible with all others.

Authors: Silva Ronaldo Francisco da
Published: December 2024

This research aimed to identify factors related to the use of Head-Up Display (HUD) which influence the performance of pilots in procedures ILS CAT I, with low limits of visibility and height decision. To achieve this goal, it was developed an experiment in a flight simulator and interviews with pilots involved in the training with EMB-190 aircraft of an airline company, and also in a squadron of the Air Force responsible for authorities transportation. The experiments in the simulator indicated that in manual flight the HUD reduces the lateral error, the vertical error and the speed variances. From the analysis of positions of the pilots interviews, it was identified that the most valued feature in the HUD is the fact of having access to essential data such as: attitude, energy (velocity and acceleration), altitude and course deviations at the same time when looking outside toward the displacement of the aircraft. This HUD interface feature improves the quality of pilotage and reduces the time for tracking data, facilitating the transition from the instruments to the visual external references. The results led to conclude that the use of HUD enables operations with low limits of ceiling and visibility by increasing the accuracy of the trajectory and the pilot situational awareness.

Authors: Lima Neto Diógenes
Published: December 2024

Considering the growing global competitiveness, nations always search for ways of leveraging their development. In this sense, offset agreements have been used, historically, as a tool for reaching that goal. In Brazil, particularly at the Air Force Command (COMAER), the scope of this research, such agreements have been implemented since the 1950s. Nevertheless, with the establishment of the Ministry of Defense, in 1999, and the release of the Ministerial Order No 764/MD, in 2002, which rules this subject, a new institutionalization of that process occurred. Thus, the purpose of this study was to analyze the maturity of such institutionalization at COMAER. In order to do so, a questionnaire, with 40 questions, was built using the Business Process Maturity Model framework (BPMM), because of its wide scope. Respondents were COMAER officers who have worked with this kind of agreement in the period 2008-2012. After a bias analysis from the results, it was noticed that only three dimensions, from the five considered, have shown a positive bias. Thus, considering these results, it’s reasonable to come to the conclusion that such institutionalization isn’t mature enough at COMAER

A influência da compreensão dos pilotos acerca da interação dos fatores de risco na operação de pouso de máximo esforço na Antártica
Authors: Conceição Joyce de Souza
Published: December 2024

This research aimed to identify the influence of pilots’ understanding of the interaction of risk factors in the maximum effort landing operation in Antarctica. In this regard, a documentary investigation was initially carried out to determine, among the planning factors of the maximum effort landing, which ones are risk factors in the Antarctic context. By applying the matrix arrangement proposed by the Brasiliano Risk Analysis Method, the identified variables were classified according to their motor and dependency characteristics. Next, a survey was conducted with the Antarctic Crew Charter pilots to verify what crew members understood regarding the interaction between factors, which were also subjected to a matrix arrangement and classified according to the method proposed by Brasiliano (2006). The comparison between the classification obtained in the survey and the pilots’ perception indicated differences in the location of the factors “wind”, “contamination” and “point of contact”, which were understood by the crew members as those with less influence on the system. Therefore, it was found that such difference may be an indication of a low situational awareness at the level of “understanding”, which refers to the ability of understanding, interpreting and evaluating data, according to Endsley (1999). After such findings, it was concluded that an inadequate understanding of the interaction of risk factors can contribute to accidents or incidents in the operation in SCRM, increasing the possibility of events such as runway departures or loss of lateral control of the aircraft.

Based on air effort of information and hours flown by pilots until the time of operational flight instructor advice were presented through tables, made the analysis, and, after correlated by linear Pearson coefficient (r = � 0, 15). With the result, you can see that there is a negative relationship between the variables, is the reduction did not affect air effort in training instructor pilot as pilots reached a minimum of 600 hours set by PIMO. Thus, based on Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints in its first step to identify the restriction, it can be concluded that the reduction of air effort was not the bottleneck in the instructor training process.

A capacitação de recursos humanos é essencial quando se pretende investir no desenvolvimento de tecnologias de ponta. Na área espacial não é diferente, visto que há a necessidade de pessoal extremamente qualificado em áreas relacionadas com a pesquisa e o desenvolvimento de veículos espaciais. Sob esse aspecto, este artigo propõe a estruturação de cursos de pós-graduação no Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica, com o intuito de atender a necessidade latente quanto à mão de obra qualificada e adequada aos interesses do Programa Espacial Brasileiro. Para suportar a proposta deste trabalho, há, primeiramente, uma abordagem sobre a necessidade da integração do ensino com pesquisa e desenvolvimento, vislumbrando a capacitação adequada de recursos humanos para a área espacial. A segunda abordagem se traduz na necessidade de que a capacitação abordada na primeira análise seja de pós-graduação, dada a natureza complexa do tema. Assim, baseando-se nas abordagens apresentadas, a tendência é que a carência de pessoal qualificado seja minimizada e as demandas nacionais do setor espacial atingidas. Por fim, o presente artigo contribuiria não somente com a área espacial, mas poderia servir de referência para qualquer área que envolva itens com complexidade tecnológica.

The presence of organic leftovers and food waste in distribution and consumption is recurring, even in the most varied types of restaurants. In public agencies, this issue becomes relevant for the manager when considering all stages of the production chain until decision making. Following good global practices, the acceptable limit for leftovers is set at up to 10%, so that the impacts and costs involved are reduced. For the preparation of menus in the Brazilian Air Force, FCA 145-16/2018 is used, which lists the minimum quantities for meals. However, there is a lack of an indicator relating to the levels of leftovers and waste, thus resulting in a lack of management results in this aspect. Given the above, this work aims to verify the feasibility of implementing a new indicator so that waste is evaluated and estimated in its quantity and helps in the management of production and resources. To achieve this objective, the proposed methodology will be bibliographical research about the leftovers and the respective indicators along with a case study in the Air Force Academy ranch. It is expected that the results may add to the efficiency of management in the Brazilian Air Force's Subsistence Units.

The research aims to bring technical subsidies on the policy of the Brazilian Army Health System, which prioritizes the care of its personnel in the military hospitals. The aim is to measure whether the policy of avoiding outsourcing contributes to the reduction of medical and hospital costs since, in order to provide such assistance, a complex health structure is maintained throughout the country, which in turn demands financial resources in maintenance of installations, equipment and human resources burdening the Army's budget and, in the long term, generates social security expenses, calling into question the view that the existence of own hospitals is more advantageous in terms of reducing expenses. The cost systems used by the Army are not aimed at providing accurate measurements of medical and hospital costs, which, added to the scarcity of research on health costs in the Army, raises doubts about the efficiency of the policy of maintaining its own health network. Surgical costs at HGES were analyzed using the Activity-Based Costing (ABC) method and compared to expenses incurred with surgeries performed in the private network. Data on HGES costs and expenses in the private network were compared by logistic regression, using the STATA® statistical analysis program, obtaining evidence that there is a strong relationship between higher costs when surgeries occur in accredited hospitals.

Introdução
O Núcleo de Avaliação de Tecnologias em Saúde (NATS) é o responsável por articular o conjunto de ações em ATS desenvolvidas no HC Unicamp, subsidiando os gestores na decisão sobre a implantação, uso racional ou abandono de tecnologias, de acordo com as diretrizes do SUS. O grupo utiliza as revisões rápidas para resposta às demandas institucionais sobre a incorporação de tecnologias de modo a acelerar o processo de revisão, mas mantendo a metodologia sistemática, transparente e reprodutível. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever as revisões rápidas elaboradas pelo NATS para fortalecimento da ATS hospitalar em uma instituição pública de ensino.
Métodos
Trata-se de estudo descritivo sobre as demandas e produtos elaborados pelo NATS HC Unicamp para utilização institucional no período de fevereiro de 2021 a julho de 2023. As revisões rápidas elaboradas foram categorizadas quanto à tecnologia avaliada, origem da solicitação, justificativa para o parecer e custo das tecnologias solicitadas.
Resultados
Foram elaboradas 65 revisões rápidas para atendimento de demandas do hospital no período avaliado. Observa-se aumento no número de pareceres demandados, com 18 em 2021, 26 em 2022 e 21 até julho de 2023. A maior parte das respostas rápidas é sobre medicamentos (70,8%), seguida por produtos para saúde (21,5%). Os principais solicitantes são a coordenadoria de assistência (44,6%), a diretoria do serviço farmacêutico (15,4%) e a Comissão de Farmácia e Terapêutica (13,8%). As revisões rápidas são utilizadas em sua maioria para subsidiar a decisão sobre a aquisição de medicamentos não padronizados (41,5%). O custo mediano das tecnologias avaliadas foi de R$25.579,12, somando um total de R$1.879.756,44 entre as tecnologias avaliadas. 40% dos pareceres foram contrários à aquisição das tecnologias e há evidências da implantação das recomendações do NATS em sua totalidade para 56,9% dos casos.
Discussão e conclusões
O NATS fornece apoio na decisão sobre a alocação de recursos públicos para a aquisição de tecnologias. A demanda crescente mostra o reconhecimento do papel do NATS e a importância das revisões rápidas para subsidiar a tomada de decisão baseada em evidências científicas obtidas de modo sistematizado e transparente. Além disso, a participação de diferentes colaboradores na elaboração dos pareceres é uma estratégia de disseminação dos conceitos de ATS para estudantes e profissionais do hospital.
