DETRAN vehicle inspection
Vehicle inspection ("vistoria veicular") is required at DETRAN whenever you transfer ownership, deal with a sinistro de grande monta, move the vehicle to another UF, or, in some states, renew the annual licensing. As a rough guide on cost: SP ≈ R$ 240, RJ ≈ R$ 200, MG ≈ R$ 150, RS ≈ R$ 180. The work is done by an ECV (Empresa Credenciada de Vistoria).
CONTRAN Resolução 466/2013 sets the standard procedure: the inspector verifies the chassis number, the engine number, lights, brakes, tires and emissions. If the CRV comes out with code 7 (sucata), the vehicle can no longer be relicensed. The annual licensing itself (IPVA + DPVAT + DETRAN fee) runs roughly R$ 100-200 and varies from one state to the next.
Applications

FAQ
Quanto tempo dura a vistoria? De 30 a 60 minutos, e na maioria das UFs dá para agendar online.
Quanto vale a vistoria? Conforme a UF, você tem de 30 a 90 dias para concluir a transferência.
Posso usar ECV de outra UF? Não. A vistoria precisa ser feita na UF onde o veículo está licenciado hoje.

Equivalent Flow (PCE)
Calculate the equivalent flow in passenger car equivalents (PCE), q = Q_cars + Q_heavy × E, adding the car flow to the heavy-vehicle flow multiplied by the equivalence factor E (how many passenger cars each truck or bus equals in road occupancy — typically 1.5 to 3.0). The result, in PCE/h, converts a mixed traffic stream into an equivalent homogeneous one, allowing volumes to be compared and the capacity of roads with different traffic compositions to be computed. Heavy vehicles occupy more space and accelerate more slowly, especially on grades. Enter the car flow, the heavy-vehicle flow and the equivalence factor.
Average Headway
Calculate the average headway (time interval between successive vehicles), h = 3600 ÷ q, dividing 3600 seconds by the flow rate q (vehicles/h). The result, in seconds, is the average time between two consecutive vehicles passing a point. Headway is the inverse of flow: the higher the traffic volume, the shorter the intervals. It is a central concept of traffic flow theory, used in signal design, capacity analysis and car-following models. The smallest safe headway defines the maximum capacity of a lane. Enter the flow rate.
Average Vehicle Spacing
Calculate the average vehicle spacing, s = 1000 ÷ k, dividing 1000 metres by the traffic density k (vehicles/km). The result, in metres, is the average distance between the fronts of two consecutive vehicles in a traffic stream. Spacing is the inverse of density: congested roads have high density and small spacing; free-flowing roads have low density and large spacing. It is the spatial analogue of headway (which is temporal) and relates to speed by s = v·h. The smallest spacing, at jam density, equals the vehicle length plus the minimum gap. Enter the traffic density.

Compute |E| = k·|Q|/r² for a point charge at distance r in vacuum.
Speed of Sound in Air
Compute speed of sound in air: v = 331.3 + 0.606·T (m/s).
Dredge Solids Production
Calculate the volumetric solids production of a dredge or pipeline, Q_s = Q·C_v, from the total slurry flow Q (m³/s) and the solids volumetric concentration C_v (fraction). Solids production is the volume of useful material (sand, sediment, ore) effectively transported per unit time — the direct measure of dredging or slurry-pumping PRODUCTIVITY, and what really matters commercially (a dredge is paid per cubic metre dredged, not per pumped water). It is the product of the total slurry flow and the solids fraction: increasing production means increasing the flow (bigger pumps, more power) OR increasing the solids concentration (excavating denser material, optimizing the suction). There is a fundamental trade-off: pumping very concentrated slurry raises production per cubic metre of slurry but raises mixture density, head loss and deposition/clogging risk. Solids production, integrated over time, gives the total dredged volume (for measurement and payment) and frames planning (how many hours/days to dredge a channel, fill a pit, move overburden). It is the key operational indicator. Enter the slurry flow and the volumetric concentration.
