Presentation

Eureka Science Fair was born from the science fair that happened for

years at the Joinville International School. Affiliated to FEBRACE and

MOSTRATEC, the two biggest national science fairs, Eureka aims to develop

and expand the scientific, cultural, entrepreneurial and innovation knowledge in

Elementary School students to High School. The fair that was once only for the

school community of the Joinville International School now receives other guest

schools, widening its influence. In 2017 the fair received its own name, Eureka

Science Fair. The students of Joinville International School elected the slogan

of this edition as "Finding our place in the Science Universe", proposed by the

5th grade student Heloísa Liz Nogueira.

During the months of April and May, students were involved in discussion

and practices on themes proposed by the supervising teachers to investigative

processes that involved a lot of creativity and criteria in the development of

significant projects for individuals and for society as a whole.

More than in previous years, Eureka Science Fair focuses on

interactions between students from different schools, as well as among

teachers, professionals and scientists who exchanged experiences, analyzes,

reflections and discussions that stimulate the development beyond the barriers

of knowledge. Students are led to think on a global scale by realizing different

world realities in a context of diversity in academic and cultural backgrounds.

Eureka Science Fair brings projects developed in the areas of

Engineering, Individuals and Society, Biology, Math, Chemistry and Physics,

presented by students from Elementary to High School, guided by the teachers

of the respective schools.

We believe this to be the first year of many to come for Eureka Science

Fair. We count on the collaboration and appreciation of all those who truly

believe in ideas which motivate talents in the fields of sciences.

I Eureka Science Fair | 2017 3

A SOCIAL EXPERIENCE ON HONESTY Isabela Bastos Luiza Roggia

Valentina Cavasolla Helena Cristina Máximo (Supervisor)

Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

Our project is based on an investigation on how society reacts to our social

experiment, which is about trust and honesty. We leave a table with candy and

a ticket giving the orders to the client to leave their money in the box. The

objective we tried to achieve was to see if trust and honesty are aspects present

in the region. Our first procedure was to make the sweets, so that they were

presentable for sales. Then we selected places to put the tables where people

passing by could see. We realize that many people are suspicious because

they know that there is cruelty among people. Most sought out some salesman

and some people thought it was a joke. We managed to realize that some

thought of stealing, and others thought it was a project, because something like

this is not very common. Another thing that caught our attention was that people

from smaller cities bought much more than in the center, for example, with this,

it was possible to notice that they have more confidence because they know the

people around them. We can say that our goal has been achieved because it is

not honesty but trust, because to buy something that you do not know where

you came from, you have to trust in society in general and believe that people

practice citizenship.

KEY WORDS: CONFIDENCE, HONESTY, CITIZENSHIP.


BANALIZATION OF OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISORDER - OCD

Beatriz Soldaini Grieco Cabral De Mello Giuliana Monteiro Pignatiello

Maria Eduarda Fagundes Lemos Adriana Bollmann Soares (Supervisor)


Generalization and normalization are very present in the lives of people who are

diagnosed with psychological illnesses, causing the diagnosed person to end up

denying his condition and not looking for an adequate treatment. In this project

we decided to explain the seriousness of OCD because it has little recognition

as a disease in society, and how this normalization affects the life and treatment

of people. Through questionnaires, we conducted a research with people

around us, we ended up discovering that the banalization of OCD is strongly

implicit in our environment, being most often compared to a simple and

controllable habit. After a great research of data using our questionnaires and

psychology books about the disease, we came to an answer to the problem of

how to make people realize the seriousness of psychological diseases and how

to make them explicit for the population, drawing attention to how this affects

And modifies their lives.

KEY WORDS: OCD, NORMALIZATION, DESEASE


CHILDREN IN THE WAR OF SYRIA Camilli Eduarda Cordeiro Rabello

Julia Franco Zago Sofia Klujszo Utzig

Andréa Gonçalves de Araújo (Supervisor) Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

We chose this topic because we found it very interesting. Besides the desire to

learn more about the subject, we also want to discuss and teach other people

about it. We started by researching and reading about the topic on the Internet.

We read a little about everything, we inspire ourselves to start writing from our

point of view. We wrote about the Syrian war, and how it harmed and is harming

children, primarily affecting their feelings, their future and their health. In

addition to future (serious) consequences to the economy of the country. We

learned a lot from the project, and were encouraged to help. The project's

conclusion was that these children are really being affected, will suffer greatly in

the future and need help. We sent an email to the United Nations to help, but so

far we have not received any answers.

KEY WORDS: CHILDREN, SYRIA AND WAR.


CLEPSYDRA, THE WATER CLOCK Elena Cereghino Hernandez

Joaquim Rota Vieira Vítor Augusto Hertel Rovaris

Francisco de Paula Oliveira Fernandes (Supervisor) Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

Have you ever stopped to think about how our ancestors measured the time in

the beginnings of humanity? Probably you already think about the “sun watch”,

but this is not the only clock that the humans used to measure the time. We

introduce you Clepsydra, the water clock! We chose this project because we

thought that it would be interesting to know a bit of the past which many people

didn’t know. To make the Clepsydra, we cut in the middle a 2 liter plastic bottle,

and made a hole in the center of the bottle cap. The part with the cap was put

upside-down in the base and water was added. When the water was running,

we counted the time that we wanted, and after this time had passed we

recorded how much the water got up. We have reached our objective, but we

noticed that it is not very precise, sometimes the clock deregulated a bit,

because every time we would count the time it splashed water out of the bottle.

Time wasn´t clear, but we could have a notion about how our ancestors

measured the time. It was a good experience knowing a bit more about the

past.

KEY WORDS: CLEPSYDRA, WATER, CLOCK.


END OF PROBLEMS FOR WHEELCHAIR USERS Arthur Blind Pope

Maria Júlia Amancio Padilha Nicolas Nass


Our project speaks about the physically handicapped and with the question of

how they were treated over time and how the difficulties faced by the physically

disabled have changed over time. Our hypothesis before researching all this is

that we thought the wheelchairs in the Middle Ages were well, care, and

respected precisely because they have a difficulty affecting their lives that stops

them from doing many things and our methodology is to do a research. After

doing the project and to do the interview to help the handicapped to be more

respected we searched our project and did the logbook and made the model.

The research showed us that the life of the handicapped was very difficult and

the interview showed us that the handicapped still have many problems.

KEY WORDS: HANDICAPPED; ACCESSIBILITY; HISTORY.


FAMILY CHANGED THOUGHOUT THE TIME Grade 1 students

Dorota Szczepanska Oliveira (Supervisor) Janaina Jerlane Coelho (Co-Supervisor)


The title of our Science Project Family changed throughout the time came from

our students while studying one of transdisciplinary theme Where we are in the

place and time. One of our indicators were Describe how family changed

throughout the years. Represent on the graph and charts changes which

occurred during the time in the family. In the beginning of the research students

made the hypothesis that There are no many members in their family. After the

investigation of reasons students got very interested in the subject of their

family. They proceed family interviews investigating quantities of member in

their families.

KEY WORDS: FAMILIES, CHANGES, TIME.


HOW SOCIETY DEALS WITH “HOOKING UP” (BRAZILIAN SLANG “FICAR”) – GENDER

DIFFERENCES Brenda Lopes Thiago Amin

Helena Cristina Máximo (Supervisor) Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

The objective of this project is to find out if teenage girls suffer any kind of

prejudice (by the own teenagers) because they have “physical” relationships

(dates) with many people. The methodology adopted by the group was a

questionnaire with 6 closed questions and 1 open question. The questions were

elaborated in a way in which, by analyzing the answers, it would be easy to

identify if a person is prejudiced. For this, the survey was given to 43 people

who know the members of the group, including 22 girls and 21 boys aged

between 12 and 17 years. This research was also done with 40 other people

(20 boys and 20 girls), still between 12 and 17 years old, but were randomly

chosen in a mall, which the young people attend a lot. The result, as expected,

was that girls suffer more prejudice by relating to multiple people. The most

interestingly, girls proved to be more conservative than boys. While most of the

boys answered in the open question that has relations with a lot of people at a

single party (and/or would like to have more), the girls answered that they only

have relationships with 1 to 3 people on average during a party which for them

is more appropriate.

KEY WORDS: TEENAGERS; PREJUDICE; RELATIONSHIPS; GENDER.


OW THE CUBAN DICTATORSHIP INFLUENCE THE POPULATION

Arthur Krammel Gustavo Brandao Lacerda

Maria Eduarda Kushino Borges Andréa Gonçalves de Araújo (Supervisor)


We decided to choose this Project for the reason that one of the members of

the group called Gustavo, had two teachers and a friend in his school of Brasilia

that had already lived in Cuba, this is something that can make it easier to make

our Project. Beside that, we are studying about America in Geography, and this

can be an adjunct to our theme. Our methods are search in internet about Cuba

and the Cuban dictatorship and the interviews done by a member of the group

to the Cubans that live in Brasilia. This integrant went to Brasilia and talk to his

knows. All of them said that the conditions of life in Cuba is horrible but mainly

that many children and teens has a proper education but didn’t had the

necessary materials to the classes. For example, in medicine, when you need a

respiratory mask for someone that can’t breathe alone, they didn’t had this

mask. The also said about the scarcity of food, but this isn’t the main cause of

the slump. After we analyzed our interviews, we saw that many people are

suffering in Cuba because of the Socialism and the dictatorship implemented by

Fidel and that Raúl is still using the method of his brother. In this way we saw

that, our hypothesis that say that the Cuban dictatorship is influencing in a

negative way was right, but we discover that is worse than we imagined.

KEY WORDS: DICTATOR, CUBA, INFLUENCE.


THE ANCIENT RAFT Gabriela Serpa Rodrigues Henrique Bezerra da Silva

Laís Russi Caputo Francisco de Paula Oliveira Fernandes (Supervisor)


Our Project has the objective of seeing how humans in the past made their

things and take one of this customs and apply to our lives. Were there when the

idea came of make a raft wit materials simple to find, as it would have a little

cost and maybe would help in poor places close to water. To make the raft, we

use a base of bamboo that would be use by the natives that came to America

and we use a string to make the knots. We chose her because it has a small

cost and can help people that live close to rivers.

KEY WORDS: RAFT; BAMBOO; WATER TRANSPORT.


THE BAGHDAD BATTERY Lucas Lapa Furtado

Pedro Hang Prazeres Ricardo Siedschlag


We will re-make the Baghdad battery to see the number of volts it produces,

and if we can light a led. The Baghdad battery was found in the thirties be the

archaeologist Wilhelm Konig and it is thousands of years old. Because energy

today causes too much pollution, and not all people have access to it, we

wanted to try an energy source that would not pollute much and be accessible.

KEY WORDS: ARCHAEOLOGY; ENERGY; BATTERY.


THE CONFLICT IN SYRIA MAY AFFECT VARIOUS GENERATIONS Eduardo Blind Pope

Felipe Bonilauri Ferreira Maria Isabella Schneider


The war in Syria is one of the biggest conflicts today. Many generations will be

severely affected, as well as severely damaged. The poor living conditions in

Syria are the main factors behind the recent increase, in the number of Syrians

seeking refuge in Europe. Refugees are adopting negative coping strategies,

such as child labor, school dropout, begging, and prostitution. They need a lot

more support. In this project we want to report to everyone what is the reality for

these generations, and how we can be damaged in the future as a

consequence, with many relevant and conscious research, we will show how

the various generations have been or are being damaged by the War in Syria.

We conclude that, the impact of the conflict in Syria can affect several

generations and threaten security throughout the Middle East. The depth of the

Syrian tragedy is painfully reflected in the number of victims. The atrocious

experiences reported by the survivors reveal violations of human rights, war

crimes and crimes against humanity. The destructive dynamics of the civil war

endangers future generations and threatens peace and security throughout the

region.

KEY WORDS: WAR, CONFLICTS, GENERATIONS.


THE PAPYRUS Fernanda Grieco Acquati

Leonardo Gayoso Ziemath Kotzias Leandro Odorizzi


We chose this project because we found it interesting to know how the books

were done back in the past, because nowadays there are machines that already

do this for us, but, at that time, none of these existed. Our project was meant to

recreate an old book, in that our question was about how the books were made

in the past, together with our hypothesis of being easy to make an old book (but

with only one sheet) because the materials are not so difficult to found. We

researched more about books because we felt that more knowledge about

books, paper and their production could help us more in our project. We cut the

tip of the papyrus, cut it into thin strips, we took the strips and put them in a

bowl of water (after waiting 72 hours to follow our project), put the strips on top

of the wooden plank, put the strips also on the felt and cover them with a

second piece of felt. Then we put the "package" between the dough and the

wooden plank to flatten. When it dried, we used the roller to make it flattened

like a sheet. Using materials such as papyrus (paper used in ancient Egypt), felt

and wood, we recreated a one-page book in the style of the ancient books.

Contrary to what we initially thought, it is difficult to make a papyrus book

nowadays, since materials (such as papyrus) are rare.

KEY WORDS: PAPYRUS, BOOK, PROJECT.


WAR IN SYRIA THREATENS HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL MILLENNIUM HERITAGE

Breno Portela Alves Leonardo Lussoli


We did the project because we wanted people to think about how war can affect

the culture and coexistence of others. We have researched the losses of

cultural and historical devastation as dramatic as the current conflict in Syria.

Besides, scientists have had to leave the country because of the war. The

conclusion of the war is the same as we thought. When the war comes to an

end, one must do a colossal job to rehabilitate these monuments that are

suffering damage for other reasons as well.

KEY WORDS: WAR, SYRIA, PATRIMONY.


WATERWHEEL Matheus Hansenn

Rafael Krüger Senra Vicente da Costa Landowski


Our group researched and built a water wheel. Our first question is to know if it

could move water, but, because of the difficulty of execution we changed our

objective to investigate the production of hydroelectric energy of the water

wheel. The built wheel was made of simple and accessible materials. We tried

several times to make it move water but we concluded that it was too hard, so

the water that could move water to generate energy. The next step was to try to

make the experiment spin a printer engine to turn a LED lamp on.

KEY WORDS: WATER, ENERGY, WATERWHEEL.


WHY MOVE? Grade 4 students

Dorota Szczepanska Oliveira (Supervisor) Edimara da Luz (Co-Supervisor)

Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC The question of our Science project Why move? came from our students while

studying one of transdisciplinary theme Where we are in the place and time.

One of our indicators was Describe and classify reasons why people migrate.

After the investigation of reasons students got very interested in the subject of

migration. They made a connection between the first human migration and

migrations of their family. In the beginning of the research students made the

hypothesis that there are no many migrants in their family and reasons were in

most of the cases economic. They worked with following didactic materials: O

que há de África em nós and documentary movie The first human Odyssey.

One of the biggest impact during our research was the Field Trip to National

Museum of Migration and Colonization in Joinville.

KEY WORDS: MIGRATION, REASONS, FAMILIES.

The project consists in verifying if the practical experiments help in the

understanding of the theoretical classes. To do this, two groups of students will

be selected and a brief explanation will be made on the subject, then the first

group will be asked to do a small questionnaire. While the other will be shown a

simple experience demonstrating what is explained, then they will do the same

questionnaire and the results will be compared, so that we can arrive at a

concrete result for the question asked initially.

DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF MUSIC Eduardo Chagas Ferreira

Otávio Augusto Ravache Machado Breier Anderson Madruga dos Santos (Supervisor)


Our project came up with the idea of traffic safety, we wanted to see if the kind

of music (by varying the bpm) we heard can influence driving. So we took the

genre of music most played on the radios (country music) and a genre that we

believe has greater influence during driving, so we choose rock. We put

different people to do a simulation in a game, as long as it played the music.

This way we evaluate if the genre and the bpm of the music influences driving.

KEY WORDS: MUSIC, DIRIGIBILITY, AND MUSIC INFLUENCES.


HOW THE ELECTRONIC CALCULATOR WORKS AND AN ALGEBRAIC TRICK

Caio Petroncini Manoela Morais Serratto

Sofia Melo Stevens Escola Internacional Unisociesc de Florianópolis – Florianópolis-SC

The initial question was: How does the electronic calculator work and an

algebraic trick? Our initial hypothesis was that all possible operations were pre-

programmed into the calculator in the form of a multiplication, addition,

subtraction, and division table, and that the calculator would just pick up the

operation that the person typed and return the corresponding answer. To find

out how it works we conducted an online research and learned that the

calculator does the calculations and not simply has the information saved in the

form of a table. In order to demonstrate our findings on how the calculator

actually calculates, we constructed wired logic gates, LEDs, and transistors on

an integrated circuit board, which together do logic operations with 1's and 0's.

The binary result is then converted to numbers with base 10. We modified our

initial question to "how the electronic calculator calculates" since our hypothesis

has not been proven. We ended up working with an algebraic trick to show an

application of the calculator usage, which looks like a "magic trick".

KEY WORDS: CALCULATOR, ALGEBRA, TRICK.


MUSIC INFLUENCE ON THE HEART BEATING OF AN INDIVIDUAL

Gustavo Fontenelle Matias Filhos Livia Feitosa Dantas

Marina Cristina Rover Anderson Madruga dos Santos (Supervisor)


With a marvelous curiosity which knows no limits, we (Marina and Lívia) came

to wonder: could, for any instance, music influence on the heart beating of an

individual? Our group theorized, before the experiments, that music did

influence the BPMs (Beats per minute) of the individuals. This thought is

supported by the fact that, between other factors, the emotion is one of the main

causes of the cardiac frequency; knowing that music has the capacity of

transmit emotions, we want to test how this factor changes the BPM of our

volunteers and if music and bpm have an interrelationship. The methodology

that we chose to use was to submit volunteers to three different songs, two of

which they can choose (as long as they consider one of them cheerful and the

other one depressing) and the third one had to be a constant for all volunteers.

Then, we would measure the cardiac frequency of the volunteers during each

song. It is necessary, for methodology’s sake, that the volunteers hear each

song separately and with a short time break between the hearings, in order to

avoid the influence of a song over the others.

KEY WORDS: SONG, HEAT BEATING, MUSIC INFLUENCE.


PARAMETERS ANALYSIS OF ROCKETS LAUNCHING FOR MOBFOG

Bernardo Enrique Colossi Gomes Felipe Bastos Santini

Gustavo Gonzaga Petry Escola Internacional Unisociesc de Florianópolis – Florianópolis-SC

This work started with the intention to participate in the Brazilian Rocket Show

(MOBFOG), promoted by the Brazilian Astronomy and Astronautics Olympics

(OBA). G10 students (Escola Internacional / SOCIESC / Florianópolis) were

divided into two groups, one responsible for experimenting the chemical

properties of the project (the best ratio of reagents), and the other for

experimenting the physical properties of the project (better angle for launching a

rocket) - with the technique used it was possible to obtain a range of

approximately 10 meters. The peer work between the two groups composed a

significant part of the theoretical basis for this research, which focused basically

on investigating the factors that can affect the maximum reachable distance by

a PET bottle rocket. They are basically the pressure obtained from the reaction

between Sodium bicarbonate and vinegar, the different types of rocket models,

different models of launch bases, and different ways of starting the reaction.

Changes were made and tests were carried out, of which only one was

successful, obtaining a reach of 77.9m. We concluded that the changes have

greatly improved the rocket's reach that still have possibilities to provide better

results.

KEY WORDS: PET BOTTLE, ROCKET, MOBFOG.


THINK YOU'RE MULTITASKING? Henrique Marcel dos Santos

Lucas Dias Cardoso Anderson Madruga dos Santos (Supervisor)


Our science fair project will analyze the performance of people performing more

than one task at a time. Let's use a classic example, the use of the mobile

phone while driving, to answer the question: Is it possible to maintain focus and

performance while performing two tasks at the same time? Today, cell phones

are one of the main causes of traffic accidents, distracting drivers from all over

the world and causing very serious consequences. In this project, we'll look at a

driver's skills while talking on the phone. Many people are said to be able to

perform multitasks at the same time, even while driving. Therefore, we will try to

prove how capable people are of accomplishing more than one task at a time,

using a car driving simulator, a steering wheel and a mobile phone.

KEY WORDS: MULTITASKING, DISTRACTING DRIVERS, AND CAR

SIMULATOR.


VERIFICATION OF FUEL ETHANOL CONTENT Andrey Celestino

Matheus Preti Carlos Mumic Junior (Supervisor)


Fuel adulteration is an illegal practice that has been used at some gas stations

with the goal of increasing profitability. Our objective in this project was to verify

in the period of June the alcohol content in the fuels gasoline and ethanol, using

the extraction based on the solubility of the solvents to evaluate the gasoline

and titration by permanganometry based on the oxidation-reduction reaction for

the ethanol.

KEY WORDS: ETHANOL, CONTENT, FUEL.



DO VIDEOGAMES IMPROVE THE CONCENTRATION/MOTOR

COORDINATION/BALANCE? Eduardo Costa Lemos

Eduardo Steingraber Alves Bruno Augusto Prestes

Tássia Goulart Fendrich (Supervisor) Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

We did the project because we wanted to know if our theory was true. We

tested our first tests of balance, intellect and motor coordination in a volunteer,

the volunteer was well in the proposed tests all coordinates widened after a

match of a game (the time was generally ten minutes). However, our first tests

were not successful because the volunteer played daily. The second volunteer

did not play much video games, so the result was that he or she could not

concentrate or he or she would take too long to concentrate. Our final result

unfortunately was negative because the volunteer could hardly concentrate on

the tests proposed because it concentrated too much in the game.

KEY WORDS: GAMES, TESTS, VIDEOGAME.


DOES A TERRARIUM HELP TO TEACH SCIENCE? João Vitor Kushino Borges

Matheus Frederico Manteufel Tássia Goulart Fendrich (Supervisor)


We chose this project because we wanted to help the kids to learn Science,

specially how happen the evaporation, the growing of plants, the layers of the

soil and show how some animals act in their habitats. We decided to do a

terrarium, so we planned what kind of plants that we were going to use, and

where we are going to construct these habitat, we want something big, so it can

call the attention for learning and help to see better all process. We got some

flower and plants that we found around the school. To do the layers we search

how the soil work, we made four different layers that maintain the plant alive.

We got some insects like ants and spiders. We observed that some plant grew

and create new ones, some of them start to get dry. We could see that some

water evaporates and stay in the plastic that we put above the terrarium and the

oxygen made by the photosynthesis, because the plastic start to fill up. Now we

are going to pick two groups of five volunteers, for group A to learn the lesson

with the terrarium and the group B learning without the terrarium. In the final of

this process, we will make a test with both groups and see with each one is

better, with the terrarium or without the terrarium.

KEY WORDS: TERRARIUM, SCIENCE, EARTH.


DOES LASER KILL CANDIDA ALBICANS? João Gabriel Amancio Padilha

Lívia Bohn Stein Natália Nass Sebrão


Our goal when we started the project was to reduce the number of fungi /

bacteria. For this, we use the red laser, which is already used in dentistry but

we thought of adapting it in other situations for example, reducing the fungi

Candida albicans. Our methods were to use laser together with methylene blue

dye to reduce the number of Candida albicans fungi. After the laser was used,

we spread the dilution on the petri dishes, and placed in the greenhouse at 35 °

C (human body temperature). The results observed in this study were as

following: it was possible to count the number of colonies of Candida albicans

on the dilution plates -3 of all groups. Unlike the other groups, it was observed

that in the laser dye group there was a decrease in the number of colonies.

KEY WORDS: LASER, METHYLINE BLUE, CANDIDA ALBICANS.


EFFECT OF DEFORESTATION ON SOIL Ana Julia Inoue Klaumann Caio Ayumu Minami Hirata

Maria Eduarda Vignoli Nabhan Tássia Goulart Fendrich (Supervisor)


Our group studied about deforestation; we wanted to identify which soil filters

better the water, with or without plants or with any other material. We believed

that the soil with plants would filter better than any other. Our procedure we

used three empty bottles of water which were cut to make a model. Inside the

bottles, we put soil. There was only soil in one of the bottles, on the other, we

also put grass and on the last one, there was soil and dry leaves. Water was

poured on all the three bottles and soil started to filter the water. A recipient was

placed under each bottle to collect the remaining water. Than we let the

remaining water “resting” during the night. In the other day, we see what bottle

most filter the remaining water. The bottle with grass was the best filter. The

bottle just with soil is the second one that most filter the remaining water and

the last one was the bottle with dry leaves. However, we thought that the bottle

with dry leaves would filter the most. Now we understand why the vegetation is

so important to the soil.

KEY WORDS: DEFORESTATION, WATER, SOIL.


HOW DOES LIGHT AFFECT YEAST FERMENTATION? Ana Laura Rocha do Nascimento

Anna Flavia Vignoli Nabhan Helena Marina da Silva


“Hard work is the yeast that raises the dough”- Anonymous (HARING; PLAKKÉ,

2010). Yeast is a single celled organism that grows when combined with

elements such as sugar, amino acids, oxygen, nitrogen compounds and

temperature. Yeast is a fungus that is sensitive to light, a reason to why it is

stored in dark places. Light of moderate intensity inhibits respiration and growth

in yeast. So, how does light affect yeast fermentation? The yeast ferments the

sugar, eliminating the CO2. That´s the reason why in the end of the experiment,

the CO2 needs to be measured, so the amount of CO2 released will show how

much the yeast had grown, making it possible to compare from dark to light.

The objective of the project is to see the difference between the growth of the

yeast in light and in dark, to find the most appropriate place to store it. The

experiment was made in four trials for each type of environment, being they

light and dark. Quantities of sugar, yeast, and water were measured to react

between them and half of bottles were place on the dark and the other half on

the light. Four hours after the group measured the CO2 with the sensor.

KEY WORDS: YEAST, DARK, LIGHT.


HOW HORSES REACT TO HUMAN EXPRESSIONS? Beatriz Esteves de França

Julia Geiger Jacob Mariana da Silva Gonçalves


Our inspiration for the project came from many people that like horses, but

naturally don´t know how the horse is feeling and what they can do to show his

emotions, according to their expressions (eye, mouth, ears, tail). For the

experience, we took pictures of different people, doing different facial

expressions (happy, sad, mad, and scared). Then we showed the horses the

pictures of the humans’ expressions and recorded how they react to them, for

later write the results. We discovered that the horses show similar emotions to

the expressions we showed to them, but there were slight differences among

the reaction that the horses showed.

KEY WORDS: HORSE, EMOTIONS, EXPRESSIONS


MATERIALS DECOMPOSING TIME Grade 2 A students

Carolina Alcântara Osório (Supervisor) Raquel Wolter (Co-Supervisor)


As we started the second theme: How the world Works, Grade 2 reflected about

the interdependence between men and environment. After being inquered with

the line of inquiry How much garbage do we produce every day, they had a

doubt: where does the garbage go and how much time does it take to

decompose? So after collecting the recyclable waste from the snack for 10

days, we chose some of them to see what would happen if they were left in the

environment for 1 month. And the banana peel was chosen as a parameter of

comparison, which is supposed to be decomposed in a shorter time. In a plastic

bottle with soil, we put paper towels, biscuit pack (BOPP) and banana peel

under sun and rain. After a month, all the material was taken out and it was

observed that: the banana was decomposed and the biscuit pack was still

intact, confirming most of our hypothesis.

KEY WORDS: ENVIRONMENT, GARBAGE, DECOMPOSITION.


OBTAINING ALCOHOL FROM SUGAR CANE, BEET AND SWEET POTATO

Andrea Hernández Gómez José Antônio Miranda Mattei

Thiago da Costa Pereira Senff Carlos Mumic Junior (Supervisor)


Our Science Fair project is how to produce ethanol by doing the fermentation of

organic materials. The raw materials used to produce the ethanol are: sugar

cane, beet and sweet potato. The objective of the project is to know the quantity

of alcohol produced depending on the raw material. To produce the ethanol, it

was first made the fermentation of the raw materials with yeast. The substances

obtained with the fermentation were distilled, obtaining the ethanol with water.

The production of ethanol from organic materials such as sugar cane, beet and

sweet potato follow the same principles of the fermentation of carbohydrates

and distillation of the product.

KEY WORDS: FERMENTATION, ALCOHOL, QUANTITY


OIL SPILL AND ITS EFFECTS Grade 3 B students

Janaina Jerlane Coelho (Supervisor) Patrícia Wagner (Co-Supervisor)


Almost every day there are news talking about a ship or a company spilling oil

in lakes and oceans. People often talk about the devastating effects of this on

the Earth, or how it affects the marine life, but the main questions are how do oil

spills affect the environment? Are there ways to clean the soil and the water

completely? Based on those questions, this project aims to replicate the effects

of an oil spill and compare the absorptivity of different tools used for cleaning up

an oil spill in water. Oil spills like this are very damaging, but they are not the

only source of oil that is polluting our waters, but it is one of the biggest.

Therefore, cleaning up the ocean is an important issue, not just because of

recent oil spills, but because the impact of humankind in our planet has been

increasingly concerning its future relies on actions taken now.

KEY WORDS: OIL. SPILL, WATER, EFFECTS.


PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES CAUSED BY THE USE OF DIFFERENT METABOLIC ROUTES

Gabriela Franzoni Lara Beatriz C. Gomes

Luísa C. Marinho Vinícius Campbell de Lacerda

Escola Internacional Unisociesc de Florianópolis – Florianópolis-SC

The research carried out refers to the differences in the metabolism during the

practice of aerobic and anaerobic exercises. It’s very important to know which

activity triggers each metabolic route, mainly for raising awareness of one's own

personal barriers and limits. The most important requirement for aerobic

respiration is oxygen. Oxygen (O2) and carbohydrates will be drawn into the

mitochondria, one of your cell’s organelles, and will be subjected to the Krebs

Cycle, which is a process that involves over 40 chemical reactions. According to

Neil Campbell in “Biology: Exploring Life” (2006), the result of this combination

is a molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2), which is expelled by the cells, and

Adenosine Triphosphate, better known as ATP, the molecule that energizes

your cells in order to provide all the functions they perform. In anaerobic

respiration, firstly, the stored ATP will be used to provide explosion in short

distance and high intensity exercises, according to the “training design” page of

the “ptdirect” website (link on the references). This phase, known as ATP-PC,

lasts for about 15 seconds, and could be compared to the 1st and 2nd gears of

a car. The next phase of anaerobic exercises is called Glycolytic and includes

the transformation of stored glycogen (C24H42O21) into glucose (C6H12O6)

(ptdirec.com). Then, in order to create more ATP molecules, the glucose is

broken down by a series of enzymes. This breaking down results on the

production of pyruvate (C3H4O3) and positively charged hydrogen ions (H+),

that make your muscles very acid. The binding of both molecules results on the

creation of lactate (C3H5O3), which may provide fatigues and the feeling of

burnt for about 30 or 45 seconds. This phase goes through the supposedly 3rd,

4th and maybe 5th gear of a car. All these processes work in the cellular level,

though, it's possible to observe differences between people who practice

aerobic activities compared to those who practice anaerobic activities, such as

the amount of sweat released, and the tiredness and redness shown on their

faces at the end of workout. Therefore, can these extracellular differences

which are easily noticed in our bodies be measured, confirmed and related to

the kind of activity performed?

KEY WORDS: METABOLISM, DIFFERENCES, METABOLIC ROUTES.


SEED BOMBS: A WAY INTO RECYCLING Grade 3 A students

Ilani Friedrich (Supervisor) Patrícia Wagner (Co-Supervisor)


In the beginning of the school year, grade 3 students noticed how much paper

was wasted during one day in the classroom and started to calculate how much

paper was used and wasted at school during the same period. From this

moment on, the science fair investigation started. By learning the practice of the

Reduce, Reuse and Recycle (The 3R’s) students were able to work and

achieve waste reduction goals, and strategies on how to repurpose the paper

collected in the classroom. Learning to be conscientious about waste production

is an effective way for students to care for the environment and be responsible

for their actions. Additionally, from engaging in topics on reducing, reusing and

recycling, students can dive into more complex thoughts related to creating a

more sustainable future.

KEY WORDS: RECYCLE, REDUCE, REUSE, WASTE.


TESTING DIFFERENT SUNSCREEN BRANDS Amanda Steingraber Alves

Luiza Costa Borsa Tássia Goulart Fendrich (Supervisor)


We decided to do this project because we wanted to end the problem of don’t

knowing which sunscreen brand to buy. We choose to test the brands by

passing sunscreen in plants. If the plants die is because they stopped to do

photosynthesis that mean that the sunscreen worked. We bought twelve basils

and passes different brands of sunscreen in them respectively. We keep track

of the plants for a week and see the sunscreen effect on them. The plants had

lost many leaves and the majority of them ended black. We concluded that the

sunscreen may have done more than just stop the plants on doing

photosynthesis like don’t letting the plants “breath” or contaminating them with

chemicals. We reached our objective in defining that the best sunscreen brand

in avoiding UVA and UVB rays is the brown one.

KEY WORDS: SUNSCREEN, PLANTS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS.


TERRARIUM Grade 2 B students

Carolina Alcântara Osório (Supervisor) Raquel Wolter (Co-Supervisor)


The idea of setting up a terrarium in the classroom was based on a few

questions from students about the survival of plants. Questions like: What do

plants need to live? Can plants live without sunlight? What happens to the water

used to water the plants? How can plants survive when the weather is dried?

Do plants drink water? Do plants breathe? What happens to the plant if it stays

in a place without air? They chose this choice. The importance of simulating a

closed environment with soil and plant (terrarium), helped in the answer of

these questions.

KEY WORDS: TERRARIUM, PLANT, OXYGEN.


WHICH KIND OF MUSIC PLANTS PREFER FOR GROWTH?

David Mohr Fausto de Souza Tássia Goulart Fendrich (Supervisor)


I made this project because of a book I read in which a character did this in the

book, I found it interesting. It was not the first thing I thought, before I was

thinking of doing about how records would work (because of the fissure in CDs

and vinyl), but I thought it would be easier to do and it would be more

interesting. I got two radios I put them near the plants (the two in separate

environments) two CDs of different genres and put in repeat mode. At the end

of the experiment the plant that listened to classical music did not grow much

more than the one that heard classic pop / rock, however the plant with classical

music grew 2 millimeters more than the one that heard classic rock / pop.

Despite the fact that the plants did not make much difference in growth,

everything went as planned.

WHICH VEGETABLE PRODUCES MORE ENERGY? João Guilherme Volani de Farias

Mateus Benvenutti Farias da Costa Rafael Soares Castanheira


We wanted to know which vegetable would be most effective in producing

energy, among them: an orange, a potato, a lemon and an apple. We were

thinking about something with energy of vegetables, so we choose this project.

To perform this project we took the vegetables and we put the nails and the

coins, from there, we measured the electrical current. The results showed that

the one who makes more energy is the apple, we thought that the potato would

be the best.

ANTI-DENGUE VASE Pedro Bonilauri Ferreira

Pedro Henrique Amancio Padilha Vinicius Fernandes Araújo Oliveira


The Aedes aegypti is a big problem here in our country because it is the guilty

of transmitting four diseases: the dengue, zika, chikungunya and yellow fever.

Based on this, we decided to create a vase in that the mosquito cannot enter.

The objective of this vase is a quickly solution and a cheaper way to stop the

reproduction of this mosquito. We made a vase using one plastic bottle that

incapacitates the entry of the mosquito in the standing water. Our results were

good because in our vase any mosquito entered, and our plant in the vase

didn´t die during the experiment.

KEY WORDS: VASE, DENGUE, MOSQUITO.

The main goal of our project is to make a generator that can provide enough

energy to light a lamp with 8 potatoes. It all started when group member Isaac

Abuhab found a website called "Wikihow.com" that explained how to make a

generator that would turn on a watch using the sustainable energy of a small,

clean potato. We made some modifications in the design so that the generator

would light a lamp of LED of 200w. When he showed the site to us we thought

the idea was great because we could create a new form of energy that is less

polluting to the environment, unlike the conventional battery whose discharge

causes pollution as it takes a long time to decompose( from 100 to 500 years).

After our third and last experiment, we conclude that 8 potatoes can generate

2.20w of energy. Considering that a small LED bulb needs 200w, we conclude

that approximately 727 potatoes would be needed to it light up.

KEY WORDS: LAMP, ENERGY, POTATO.


BRAILLE CARD DECK João Vitor da Cunha Lucas Sora Michels

Currently, we saw that visually impaired people had a problem having fun.

Therefore, we decided to find a way to help them to have fun. We planned to

make a card deck for visually impaired people. Our objective with this project is

to propose a way for blind people to have fun. For achieving our objective, we

did a template for writing in braille. We used these templates, and with the help

of pins, we pierced the cards with the braille writing of numbers. We also did the

suits, by researching them in various websites and we obtained a conclusion

and made them. Now we are trying to test it with visually impaired people to

verify if it works.

Key Words: braille, visually impaired, card deck.


BUS BOAT Antony Kouketsu Julia Voigt Socher Luna Calegari Rein



When we knew that EUREKA's '’science fair’' theme would be renewable

energy, we researched what the project could be. We thought it might be a lawn

mower, we researched a bit more and found that it would not work, because the

value of the project would be very expensive. We had the idea of making a boat

so the idea came up to make a renewable airboat the '' bus boat '', our teachers

said they should help the world in some way, we decided it could help transport

people from one side to the other side like a ferry, but not carrying cars. But

what is an airboat? Airboat is basically a boat powered by chemical energy from

gasoline or diesel. Its propeller on top of the water unlike ordinary boats, it

works as a fan, and the wind felt the opposite while pushing the boat forward.

At first the teachers talked about the theme of the project that would be

sustainable energy. So we've been researching what sustainable energy

means. After we went to the computer lab to research about projects

possibilities. We found a solar powered water filter, and we realized that the

necessary materials did not exist here. Our second idea was a crusher that

turns trash into fertilizer. To research we go to the house of a member of the

group, we see that the price of the plate to move the crusher would be very

expensive .So we searched a little more and finally we decided to make a LED

lamp light up with lemons. We chose this project because it was practice and

anyone who wanted to reproduce would get the lemons project that go turn on a

LED light .A classmate of the group researched and printed some things to

assist the group with the project.

Maria Eduarda Vogelsanger


Nowadays our society is very dependent on petroleum, however petroleum is

one of the principal reasons of the Global Warming and it is almost over around

the world. The polystyrene is made of petroleum and it takes many long years

to decompose, and when it does, a lot of polluting waste remains. We are going

to produce polystyrene of green coconut, the original one is made of petroleum.

Petroleum is a fossil fuel that is provoking an ecological problem that the world

is passing through those days, another reason is that the original Styrofoam

takes a lot of time to decompose; also the industries that produce petroleum

generate a lot of smoke in the air, that contributes for the Global Warming, and

as much we can avoid using the petroleum we also avoid the Global Warming.

To do our prototype we are going to use green coconut, mix it with homemade

glue, and shape it into a box. We are trying to make it waterproof and thermic.

ECOLOGIC COMBUSTION BALLOON Isabela Domingues

João Guilherme Parucker Paola Ferrari


Our project is based on avoiding fires on the forests that are caused by the São

João Balloon (Balão de São João), that is a balloon utilized in an event here in

Brazil, called “festa junina” or “festa julina”. We choose this project because we

have concerns in the Brazilian environment and we want to keep doing our

traditions. To keep the original tradition of the balloon, which means that we

have to use fire as the source to make the balloon fly (the fire can cause burns

in the forest in contact with the normal paper that we make the balloon with,

when it is already on the ground but the fire can be turned on again), we

decided to use a nonflammable tissue. After researching, we found a “manta de

Teflon”, which does not catch fire and have the needed weight for the balloon.

KEY WORDS: BALLOON, COMBUSTION, ECOLOGIC.


EVERYDAY LIGHT Henrique Brixi Cruz

Isabela Lima Bornschein Silva Lara Eloterio De Mello



We had this idea through our theme this year: sustainable energy. Our project

aims to demonstrate that sunlight can light a mini LED light showing this in a

dollhouse so that people can use a way to demonstrate solar energy without

damaging nature. Our idea came through an inspiration to help preserve nature.

We have decided to put the title '' light for everyday '' so people can see a

project that will generate enough energy to light up a dollhouse, but our goal is

for people to use it in their homes on a day-to-day basis. Nowadays many

people already have solar energy in their homes, but the system is connected to

CELESC and other energy companies. We think this idea of the house is

creative because if you have a solar plate at home your account may decrease

about 90% in the Ecoa they do not pay only the consumption at night. The eco

is a place where they provide solar panels and we went there to visit as a

school trip we learned a lot about sustainable energy.

FEEDER ROBOT Gustavo Palhares

Laura Beatriz Maria Eduarda Gimenes



We carried out this project to help people who need help to feed themselves the

robot is powered by rechargeable batteries that cannot charge with solar

energy. So we decided to build a robot that goes through this task, and that

robot will lessen that need. And while the robot feeds like people need, other

people work to support the family. To contribute to our project, each member of

the group brought materials to carry it out. All the members of our group help to

assemble, prepare and test the prototype so that we can achieve our goal. So

we made our first project that did not work because it glued a spoon with tape.

In the second experiment we set up a Lego robot and the third column with

spoon with hot glue and left the pot at an appropriate height and tested. And in

this experiment (third) it worked because the spoon did not fall and the jar did

not move.

HOW DO FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AFFECT THE

PERCENTAGE OF SIMILARITIES USING FACIAL

RECOGNITION Lucas William Pscheidt

Daniel Schlickmann Bastos

Anderson Madruga dos Santos (Supervisor) Escola Internacional de Joinville – Joinville-SC

Why do we have to abstain from smiling at any document photo? These genre

of questions, to be more specific, facial recognition and its variables, was the

topic explored by this project. In order to achieve this, our group built a simple

program with the help of Microsoft Cognitive Services Face API. This API gives

us to freedom to use Microsoft Face Recognition algorithms, therefore, our

group wrote scripts that, when executed, would connect to their server and

return us, for example, the similarity between the train photos and the test one.

6 emotions were chosen to be part of the sample size, these were the following:

happy, sad, angry, mad, surprised and a control one, the neutral face. The first

step consisted on recognizing the facial landmarks and features in 9 neutral

photos that would be used as the independent variable. Then, we would train

the dataset with the neutral photos and, for last, each of the expressions was

tested against the train data, thus, returning the similarity between the person

with a neutral facial expression and, for example, a smiling one. The results

found were that, when compared to the similarities between the neutral face,

facial expressions do indeed impact the resemblance percentage. The control

variable had a mean confidence of match of 87%, while the 5 emotions do not

vary much their percentage, they do differ against the neutral face by

approximately 17% less. Therefore, it can be concluded even though the type of

emotion does not affect the final result when compared against other emotions,

it does if contrasted with the neutral face, as it is seen with its percentage of

recognition/match.

LOW COST DESALINATION Lucas Mendes Stolf

Lucas Murias Machado Pedro Krassuski Fonseca


Our objective doing this project is to desalinate water. It is known that the

majority of population don´t have access to drinking water, because it is scarce

in many countries and places; in addition to that, desalination is expensive,

unaffordable for many social classes. We made two different experiments:

distillation and freezing. To do the distillation of salt water we will put a bowl

covered with plastic film with an empty cup in the middle, and let it catch sun.

After some hours the cup on the middle will be with drinking water, the salt will

stay in the bowl while the steam will not come out of the bowl because of the

plastic. To do the freezing, we will need to freeze the water in a low

temperature, then we will need to defrost, then make this more times, and then

it´s ready.

KEY WORDS: DESALINATION, FRESH WATER AND LOW COST.


LOW COST SELF-WATERING POT Luiz Felipe de Araújo Francalacci Thiago Kumlehn Fajardo Silva.


Sometimes we need a way to make our plants survive through long-lasting

periods, like when we travel or do things really time consuming. We designed a

way that is efficient and easy to maintain our plants while not worrying too

much, being able to leave the plants alone for some time. In this project, we

decided to produce cheap and relatively easy way to take care of plants, aiming

to help people with little budget needing to take care of either big quantity of

plants or plants that require a lot of water. We used simple materials such as

plastic bottles and strings to produce a plant vase that can keep a plant humid

for more than 2 weeks (depending on the initial amount of water and the type of

plant). We believe that our prototype worked very well because our plant

survived more than 2 weeks without replenishing water. We used very

accessible materials making it easy to construct.

KEY WORDS: PLANT, SURVIVABILITY, WATER.


NATURAL SUNSCREEN Arthur Farah

Bernardo Gazola Reberti Isabella Brixi Cruz


Our project consists in a natural sunscreen. You can choose the factor that you

want, and it is less expensive. You can save money, and have a great result at

your skin. We decided to make a sunscreen because many people, due to

financial conditions, can´t afford the product and are at risk of being burned or

even getting skin cancer. The group aimed to produce an affordable sunscreen.

To make it, we used coconut oil, zinc oxide, Hipoglós cream, and liquid soap.

Then we mixed all the ingredients together to form our sunscreen. We used

some plants to test our project, if the plant died it would mean that the

sunscreen had worked, because the plant wouldn´t have been able to make

photosynthesis, meaning that the human skin would block the sun. We

observed that our sunscreen worked, because our plant had died.

KEY WORDS: SUNSCREEN, PLANT, PHOTOSYNTHESIS.


RAINWATER CAPITATION Alicia Kruger Demartini

Amanda Carolina Koehn Luana de Moraes Farris


Our Project consists in Rainwater recollection. The Project was carried out with

the intention of saving water, we made that project because nowadays the

people spend a lot of water, and in our project, we are saving the water. We

constructed a model of a house that uses water from the rain to flush the toilet

and to water the plants. We used simple materials such as cardboard, ink, hot

glue, straw, and biscuit.

KEY WORDS: RAINWATER, CAPITATION, HOUSE.


REPLACING PET BOTTLES FOR BIODEGRADABLE PACKAGES

Giulia Evangelista Liermann Garcia Marta Jiménez Bellis

Natália Fernandes Paes Nascimento Carlos Mumic Junior (Supervisor)


PET bottle’s pollution cycle is initiated by the extraction of petroleum, production

of the preform and the bottle, cleaning, and distribution of the product. It is only

possible to recycle 50% of the PET bottle, based on this information we can

estimate that the bottle produces eight times its own weight in residues. It has

been analyzed that PET bottles are the greatest cause of pollution on Earth.

Recycling the bottle is an option, but we need to consider the impacts caused

by this procedure, like taxes (2% higher than in industries that produce regular

PET bottles in Brazil) and the higher cost of such production. In this project, we

present you a solution for the environmental problems caused by the improper

use of the PET bottle, aiming to insert edible and biodegradable materials in

people’s life. We intend to make a bottle prototype, it is made of water, Calcium

Chloride and Sodium Alginate. To comprehend our project, it is necessary to

understand the following key terms: Biodegradable, edible and PET.

KEY WORDS: PET BOTTLES, BIODEGRADABLE, PACKAGES.


SLEEPING PROTECTED IN CARS Bruno de Almeida Meduna

João Gustavo de Santana Hack Pedro Henrique Loechel de Oliveira


Our Project consists in a belt that could turn 360o degrees for you to sleep on

the back seat of the car calmly and comfortably. The first idea was to create a

platform for you to be straight and comfortable but we realized that this would

not work. So we went on to another idea that consisted of a cross belt coming

from under the seat but we realized that it was not going to work either.

Therefore, we decided that we could do a type of vest that turned 360 degrees

that you could lie down and still be comfortable. To make the prototype we used

a car, felt and a doll. We hit the car twice in low speed and the doll didn’t crash

against the car seat, one time in medium speed and twice in high speed and in

none of them our doll was in danger on the contrary, our doll remained safe and

comfortable on the back seat of our car. Our group concluded that the 360o seat

belt is safe can be used in real life situations.

KEY WORDS: SLEEP, SEAT BELT AND BACKSEAT.


SOLAR POWERED BOAT Carolina Schaefer

Henrique G. E. Souza Laura B. G. R. Torres



When we started creating the idea for the project for Eureka, we decided to

make this boat powered by solar energy because traveling is part of tourism

and creates jobs. But the conventional method, with oil fuel, pollutes the seas

and the air, so we chose this project. When the purpose of the engine works,

we are happy and excited, however, when there is no sun, we were very

disappointed with the result, as we expected the solar plate would work. For

some time our boat did not sail because of the lack of sun, but the solar panel is

powerful and on sunny days, the boat moved as expected. The second time, we

made the model of the boat with Styrofoam and pet bottle, but our solar panel

ended up spoiling, because if you get too busy with the wires, the board and the

motor do not work, so we could not test that day that there was Sun. The last

time we decided to make a Lego boat, we decided because this was the best

option we had at the moment, compared to the models produced earlier,

however the sun did not appear, and the solar plate was still damaged. Our

conclusion is that we did not get to do our initial idea, but over time we were

changing our mind from some videos, but our actual conclusion is, that we did a

Lego boat, and another day, we'll see If our boat really works.

KEY WORDS: BOAT, SUN, WATER


THE WATER CLEANER Heloisa L. Nogueira

Jessica Suppis Vitor H. Kuhn



The dirty water problem has provoked so much sicknesses all over the world

expired us to realize a water-cleaner, that is basically a pyramidal machine that

uses solar energy to evaporate the dirty water and clean even salty water. The

main idea was discovering if the sun can clean the water by it heat. We used

acrylic to build an acrylic pyramid. The dirty water is going to be introduced and

it will fill the pyramid 1cm of water per time used. After that, the water is going to

evaporate because the acrylic material that the pyramid is made to widen the

solar rays. We decided to paint the pyramid base black, this way, the ambient

inside the pyramid gets hotter and hotter, this way, it evaporate faster. After

evaporating, little drops of water will appear in the top of the machine, drain on

the surface and fall clean and “drink” out of the pyramid.

KEY WORDS: CLEAN, WATER, SOLAR ENERGY


UMBRELLA TO PURIFY WATER Bruna H. Cereghino

Giovanna Cutrim Bez Batti

Melyssa Calegari Rein


The Project’s intention was to make an easy-to-carry umbrella that features the

ability to retain the Rainwater that pours over it; so the individual can later filter it

for daily house-hold activities, and even ingestion. Though this will require a

specific filtering procedure, to eliminate present pathogens. The Water

Recycling Umbrella is divided into two structures: the umbrella, and a water

catching and transporting potable hexagon made with PVC tubes, it is to be put

over the umbrella, it also meant to serve as thorough, sanding and cutting the

tubes as a necessary step to be able to correctly put and glue them together.

Transparent hoses were attached to the structure, to lead the water to the

through secured at the bottom of the umbrella’s handle.

As a team, we believe that this Project can and will have a positive impact n

water efficiency.

KEY WORDS: FILTER, UMBRELLA, WATER.


WIND POWER Felipe Obertier Gesser

Thiago Vogelsanger.


Our project was designed to help people who do not have access to energy or

people who live in places with storms that leave people without light. We use a

wooden box, a propeller, a wheel, a motor, a led lamp and an incandescent

lamp. We can light a LED light, make the base of the design (the box), paint it,

put decorations, and find a motor. We managed to have a positive result by

lighting a led and incandescent light.

KEY WORDS: WIND, ENERGY, LIGHT.
