Abstract:
Consacré au troisième roman de Julio Cortázar (Bruxelles 1914-Paris 1984) : "62 Modelo para armar" (1968) "62 Maquette à monter" (1971), cette étude porte sur les rapports que le tissu textuel établit entre l'écriture et la lecture. Au moyen d'une double mise en abyme, le récit en train de s'écrire et le lecteur en train de (se) lire prennent place à l'intérieur d'une trame géométrique qui vise à une transformation substantielle des deux "sujets" impliqués dans et concernés par le texte. Dans cette thèse fondée sur une logique de question-réponse, la première partie permet d'étudier les processus de réception et de production de l'œuvre afin de présenter l'hypothèse d'un nouveau code de lecture qui serait nécessaire au roman spéculaire. La deuxième partie déploie l'analyse textuelle entre une critique de l'écriture et une critique de la lecture, en vue de définir ce que l'on a appelé l'herméneutique de Julio Cortázar : celle de l'opération créatrice mise dans la vie

Abstract:
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur en fackförening på en liten ort i Dalarna upplevt den stora arbetsmarknadskonflikt hösten 1909, känd som storstrejken. Hur dess medlemmar upplevde de påfrestningar de drabbades av och hur de klarade strejken och dess följder. Materialet består av mötesprotokoll från avdelningen samt den korrespondens som förekom mellan fackföreningen och förbundsledningen, och LO:s landssekretariat. I centrum för undersökningen står den under 1907 startade fackföreningen vid J.H. Munktells pappersbruk AB i Grycksbo, avdelning 332, tillhörande Grov- och Fabriksarbetarförbundet. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att fackföreningen kände en mycket begränsad entusiasm för storstrejken, beroende på dålig ekonomi och bristande tilltro till den egna förmågan. Vid strejkens början gick fackföreningen lojalt ut i strejk. Den fortsatta utvecklingen ledde till den inte ovanliga bilden med blockad och fridlysning av arbetsplatsen, strejkbryteri och ett med tiden ökande antal arbetare som gav upp strejken och sitt fackliga engagemang. För några få arbetare blev konsekvensen avsked. För fackföreningen blev konsekvensen ett drastiskt minskande medlemsantal.

Abstract:

I denna rapport kommer du som läsare kunna ta del av en redogörelse över det arbete som den undertecknade gruppen har utfört i kursen KPP305, Examensarbete produktutveckling, 30hp. Detta arbete har sin grund från en tidigare läst kurs, på Mälardalens Högskola, som gick under namnet Industridesign 2. Under denna kurs utdelades en uppgift som bestod i att ”möjliggöra musicerande för funktionshindrade”, och gruppen tog därmed fram ett visuellt koncept över ett fotanpassat instrument för människor med rörelsehinder i överkroppen. Detta examensarbete kan ses som en fortsättning på den just nämnda uppgiften.

Under hela projektet har gruppen haft en nära dialog tillsammans med människor som befinner sig inom berörande branscher såsom instrumentbyggare, reumatiker, funktionshindrade med flera. En annan person som även varit till stor hjälp under projektet är gruppens handledare, Jan Frohm, som funnits där med tips och fungerat som ett bollplank vad gäller idéer och tankar gruppen haft angående projektet.

Målet med examensarbetet var att fortsätta det arbete gruppen åstadkommit i tidigare kurs och på så vis komma fram till en slutgiltig lösning till detta. Anledningen till att gruppen valde att fortsätta arbeta med detta projekt var att de fann det viktigt att alla människor, oavsett funktions‐ eller rörelsehinder skall ha möjligheten att musicera.

Gruppen har med en omfattande research, kontakter, ett antal avgörande intervjuer och ett flertal olika produktutvecklingsverktyg kommit fram till en lösning som svarar upp till det problem gruppen från början ställt upp. Projektet resulterade i en framtagen prototyp över ett instrument, som gruppen valt att kalla för Funkinstrument (instrument för funktionshindrade), som är ämnat för människor som lider av någon form av rörelsehinder i armar/händer, eller lider av reumatism. Gruppen själva är väldigt nöjda över hur resultatet utmynnade, samt över sin insats i detta examensarbete.


In this report, you as a reader will be able to take note of a statement of the work the group has performed in the course KPP305, Examensarbete i Produktutveckling (Master Thesis Work in Product development), 30hp. This work is based on an assignment from an earlier course, at Mälardalen University, known as Industridesign 2 (Industrial design 2nd). During this course the group was awarded a task which was to "give disabled people the opportunity to make music”, and the group thus developed a visual concept over an instrument which was custom made for people with disabilities in their upper body. This thesis can be seen as a continuation of the justmentioned task.

The group has through the whole project had close dialogue to people in different industries, such as people from disability associations, instrument makers, rheumatics and disabled people with several. Someone else who also been very helpful during the project is the group's supervisor, Jan Frohm, ho been there with advice and acted as a sounding board to the ideas and thoughts the group had about the project.

 The objective of the project was to continue the work which the group achieved in previous course, and thus arrive at a definitive solution to it. The reason why the group chose to continue working on this project was that they found it important that all people, regardless of functional or physical disabilities must have the ability to make music.

The group has through an extensive research, contacts, a number of key interviews and a variety of tools for product development been able to come up with a solution that meets up to the problems which was set in the beginning of the project. The project resulted in a prototype of an instrument, which the group decided to call for Funkinstrument, which is intended for people who suffer from some form of disability in the arms and/or hands, or suffer from rheumatism. The group itself is very pleased with the outcome of the project, and of its efforts in this thesis.

Full text
Abstract:
Samhället vi lever i är uppbyggt av ett genussystem som baserar sig på könsnormer. Könsnormerna bygger på bland annat principen separation, som bygger på tanken att män och kvinnor utgör två separata grupper som anses ha olika könsspecifika egenskaper. Genussystemet skapar därmed en skillnad där det maskulina anses som en standard och det feminina som avvikande från denna standard. Hälsa och träning är ett bekönat område, där hälso- och träningsapplikationer ofta kodas utifrån normer om maskulinitet och femininitet. För att utmana och skapa medvetenhet om dessa könsnormer, kan kritisk design användas. Den kritiska designansatsen bygger därför på tanken om att designelement kan användas för att synliggöra könsnormer. På sikt kan detta leda till att individer blir medvetna om dem och kan bidra till en förändring i samhället genom att skapa ett mer jämställt samhälle. I denna studie har det utforskats hur könsnormer kan synliggöras i design av hälso- och träningsapplikationer. Studien har genomförts med en kritisk designorienterad ansats, där en prototyp har utvecklats med hjälp av metoden dekonstruktion i syfte att undersöka hur normerna kan synliggöras. Studien har resulterat i kunskaper om hur metoden dekonstruktion kan användas för att synliggöra könsnormer, samt ett antal designriktlinjer som beskriver hur designelement kan kombineras för att synliggöra normerna.
The society we live in is made up of a gender system based on gender norms, including the principle of separation. This principle is based on the idea that men and women constitute two separate groups that are considered to have different gender-specific characteristics. The gender system thus creates a society where masculine qualities are considered to be the standard and the feminine qualities as deviating from this standard. Health and workout applications are often built upon these norms about masculinity and femininity. To challenge and create awareness of these gender norms, critical design can be implemented. The critical design approach is based on the idea that design elements can be used to make gender norms visible. In the long run, this can lead to individuals becoming aware of these norms and can contribute to a change in society by annihilating them. In this study, it has been investigated how gender norms can be made visible in the design of health and workout applications. The study has been conducted with a critical design-oriented approach, where a prototype has been developed using deconstruction as a design method in order to investigate how the norms can be made visible. The study has resulted in knowledge about how the deconstruction method can be used in order to create awareness of gender norms, as well as design guidelines which describe how design elements can be combined in order to achieve this awareness.

Abstract:
Denne masteroppgaven undersøker forholdet mellom kikking, selvstudie og rollespill i Olaug Nilssens roman Vi har så korte armar (2002). Hovedpersonene Liv og Ølgjer blir spionert på av en tohodet vi-forteller gjennom hele romanen. Samtidig observerer både Liv og Ølgjer seg selv utenfra og reflekterer over hvordan de fremstår (eller ønsker å fremstå). Ved hjelp av nærlesning og tekstanalytisk arbeid ser jeg nærmere på denne blikkvekslingen og knytter den til hovedpersonenes identitetsutprøving. Jeg konsentrerer meg i hovedsak om romanens innhold, men i oppgavens andre kapittel behandles også bruddestetikken i romanen. Den kjennetegnes blant annet ved en blanding av ulike sjangre, et usammenhengende plot og en uklar fokalisering. Gjennom å analysere komposisjonen, typografien og sjangerblandingen kommer jeg frem til at romanen kan leses som bruddstykker av en fortelling om de to hovedpersonene, som små puslespillbrikker i en større fortelling om selvidentitet og sosial identitet. Kikking er gjennomgående motiv og tema i Vi har så korte armar. I kapittel 3 ser jeg nærmere på de voyeuristiske sidene ved romanen og på forholdet mellom sosialt blikk og selvblikk. Sistnevnte kan leses som en form for selvoppdagelse; som et forsøk på å forstå og realisere seg selv og finne mening i tilværelsen. Det sosiale blikket som følger hovedpersonene, sier noe om hvilke normer, forventninger og verdier Liv og Ølgjer må forholde seg til. Det kan også knyttes til moderne digital kikking og en medialisert selvforståelse. Nilssen evner slik å problematisere den ekshibisjonistiske kikkerkulturen vi lever i. Liv og Ølgjer prøver å finne seg til rette som studenter i byen, og de vurderer konstant identiteten sin knyttet til det å komme fra bygda. I det fjerde kapitlet knytter jeg denne identitetsutprøvingen til teorier om sosialt rollespill og performative selviscenesettelser. Vi har så korte armar kommenterer, går i dialog med og til tider kritiserer den også sosiologiteorien og –forskningen. Slik fungerer romanen som en annerledes utforsking av identitetsproblematikken enn den sosiologien tilbyr. Nilssens formspråk underliggjør og problematiserer ulike fremstillinger av identitetsbegrepet, narsissisme og medias innvirkning på hvordan vi samhandler og forstår oss selv.

Abstract:
Frente a la jubilación, tenemos un modelo de protección social sui géneris, condicionado por la evolución histórica del país, así como por sus normas constitucionales y legislativas que, con sus avances y sus retrocesos, ha permitido la coexistencia, en un primer momento, de dos sistemas contributivos y obligatorios: uno público (administrado por la Oficina de Normalización Previsional – ONP), y otro privado (administrado por las Administradoras Privadas de Fondos de Pensiones – AFP). A estos sistemas se sumaron los regímenes complementarios, los regímenes voluntarios; y, recientemente, el sistema no contributivo de forma asistencial (Pensión 65 y Pensión para personas con discapacidad severa), aunque éste último todavía de manera incipiente. Se ha heredado del pasado, la idea de brindar pensiones de jubilación solo a la clase trabajadora que pasa al retiro (cobertura focalizada) y no a toda la ciudadanía que también llega a la etapa de la vejez (cobertura universal), lo cual persiste en nuestros tiempos, como la narrativa hegemónica. Por ello, en la presente tesis, luego de abordar el estudio de los antecedentes y del panorama global de los sistemas de pensiones, seguido por el breve repaso de los regímenes jubilatorios existentes luego de las reformas de los años 1992 y 1993 (reforma constitucional), se plantea la deslaboralización de la seguridad social. Condición impostergable y urgente para platear la implementación de un modelo multipilar, en el que se combinen e integren las ventajas que presentan los regímenes jubilatorios contributivos y los no contributivos: Un nuevo modelo de protección social por armar; ante la inminente vejez de la sociedad cambiante, que siempre requiere de pensiones dignas, adecuadas y eficientes ante dicho riesgo social.

Det huvudsakliga syftet med min uppsats var att studera hur tre olika aspekter påverkade Gårdby socken och dess båtsmän under Stora nordiska kriget, nämligen krig, pest och missväxt. Med hjälp av de källor jag har studerat, militära rullor, kyrkoböcker och mantalslängder, har jag fått fram hur livet kunde te sig för de indelta båtsmännen men också hur pestens verkningar påverkade socknen mer långsiktigt än vad krigets utskrivningar gjorde. Jag har även studerat hur missväxten föll ut i Gårdby och jämfört detta med till exempel byn Andersvattnet, Stockholm och övriga riket.

Resumo: Esta dissertação discorre sobre o "fazer" policial nos crimes de "violência doméstica e familiar contra a mulher" circunscritos na Lei Maria da Penha (11.340/06). O trançar de fios de sentidos e séries de acontecimentos busca entender como a constituição de um saber especializado da polícia civil, emaranhado ao de outros agentes e olhares, produz um tipo de prática e noções sobre os crimes de violência doméstica e familiar contra a mulher. O texto tem início no "caminhar" pelos espaços da Delegacia de Defesa da Mulher de Campinas (DDM), no intuito de conhecer seus transeuntes e as múltiplas discursividades que se materializam em suas salas, seu Corredor e suas expectativas a respeito do cotidiano policial. De posse desse relato, acompanho um dos personagens que transita por seu Corredor e salas: a Lei Maria da Penha (11.340/06). Como foi seu nascimento? Quais suas memórias? Quem são seus padrinhos e referências? O que falam sobre ela? Para responder a essas questões, escolho no emaranhado de fios aquelas discursividades produzidas pelos documentos internacionais sobre Direitos Humanos e Direitos das Mulheres, assim como, pela atuação dos diversos movimentos feministas, dos especialistas na temática sobre violência e da polícia civil especializada. Por fim, acompanho essas policiais em seu "fazer" mais minúsculos do cotidiano: a operacionalização dos marcadores de diferença (peças/linhas) gênero doméstico e familiar na transformação de narrativas de violência doméstica em crimes previstos pela Lei Maria da Penha
Abstract: This dissertation discusses police's faire in domestic violence against women circumscribed in Maria da Penha Law (11.340/06).The weaving of meanings and the series of events seeks to understand how the constitution of a specialized knowledge about the civil police, tangled with other agents and eyes, produces practices and notions about the crimes of domestic violence against women. The text begins by the walking on spaces in the Women's Police Stations of Campinas (DDM), in order to know their passers-by and the multiple discourses that are materialized in rooms, its Corridor and expectations about the everyday police officer. After take it, I subscribe one of the characters that move through the Corridor and rooms: the Maria da Penha Law (11.340/06).How was her birth? What are her memories? Who are her sponsors and references? What they talk about her? To answer those questions I choose in the tangle of wires the documents produced by international discourses on Human Rights and Women's Rights, as well as the performance of various feminist movements, the experts on the topic of violence and civilian police staff. Finally, I follow these police officers in their tiniest faire of everyday life: the operation of the domestic and familiar's devices in the transformation of domestic violence against women's narrative in crimes provided by Law Maria da Penha

Abstract:

Highland Group AB was helping a customer of theirs to create an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV), a project Highland has never been involved with before. For the wishbone arms of the wheel suspension, traditional manufacturing methods and tubes with cylindrical or square shaped cross section was preferred. We performed a simulation where the ATV was driving on a bumpy road too see the forces involved. With the results we proceeded to calculate the strength of the concepts to find out which is best suited for the tough environment in which the ATV is used. The concept that turned out to be the best was a wishbone made of circular cross section, which had good structural strength and did fulfill the demands that we required for the construction. The company where interested in the project and could see themselves proceeding with the work in the future. We helped the company to find interest for computer aided simulation in collaboration with structural strength analysis, which they would like to engage in. The project has given us a larger knowledge in the choices of construction and structural strength analysis as well as experience working with computer aided construction tools.

Abstract:
Magíster en Ingeniería de Redes de Comunicaciones
La planificación de las operaciones de una empresa puede ser entendida como un conjunto de técnicas cuyo objetivo es conseguir el máximo beneficio mediante el uso de insumos y medios utilizados por ella en su proceso productivo. Específicamente, en el contexto de la provisión de servicios de telecomunicaciones se pueden distinguir problemas asociados a la planificación de las redes de telecomunicaciones, entre los cuales se encuentra la evaluación de desempeño de los sistemas de comunicaciones y las proyecciones de tráfico. Los modelos matemáticos de teorías de colas y de renovación, de identificación y control de sistemas, y de series de tiempo, se utilizan habitualmente para modelar y proyectar tráfico de redes de datos. En el presente trabajo se implementan y comparan distintas metodologías con base en la representación de series de tiempo, con el objetivo de modelar tráfico en nodos de red de acceso a servicios de banda ancha. En este trabajo se implementan las series de tiempo como filtros de tiempo discreto. Se desarrollan modelos ARMA con representaciones ARMAX y GARCH, que se utilizan en control de sistemas y econometría, respectivamente. Las series de tiempo de tráfico de los nodos de acceso de banda ancha también se modelan con filtros de Kalman de tiempo discreto. Los resultados obtenidos en el trabajo comprenden la comparación de los modelos ARMAX, GARCH y filtros de Kalman para predicciones de tráfico. Las métricas de desempeño, como errores de predicción y test de hipótesis de correlación, entre la serie estimada y la de verificación, se aplican a los modelos de tráfico de los nodos de red de banda ancha. Los filtros de Kalman, en la mayoría de las comparaciones, presentan mejores parámetros de desempeño que los modelos ARMA, y entre los modelos ARMA, la construcción ARMAX tiene los menores índices de error. En cuanto a los modelos GARCH, en todos los casos, tienen los mayores errores entre las series de validación y de salidas de los modelos. El aporte de este trabajo es la comparación de distintas metodologías de construcción de modelos de tráfico, con técnicas de distintos dominios que no se habían utilizado en un problema común como modelos para pronósticos de tráfico de redes de datos. De esta forma se implementa una nueva revisión de distintos modelos de series de tiempo en el contexto de planificación de sistemas de comunicaciones, que permite tener distintas alternativas de evaluación de modelos de tráfico, en contraste a las restricciones actuales de evaluación, como construcción de parámetros de desempeño. Se propone que el trabajo puede ser extendido incorporando filtros adaptivos, además de la representación de series de tiempo que incluyan la dimensión espacial. Así, las series espacio-temporales podrían representarse como filtros adaptivos para disminuir la complejidad de los modelos predictivos.

Resumo: O tema deste trabalho está focado em uma reflexão histórica acerca das relações de poder entre militares e políticos que conduziram o movimento belicista de 1930 no sul do Brasil, buscando diagnosticar as diferentes armas discursivas de legalidade e legitimidade manifestadas por esses atores sociais. Os objetivos estão calcados na investigação da comunidade de imaginação, cujo alcance ultrapassou os limites da cultura política vigente, bem como na abordagem de um novo viés cultural dessas relações de poder, desvendando o processo de utilização da manifestação bélica como alternativa à hegemonia política dos grupos dominantes daquele período. Na realidade, As armas de outubro enfoca o fim da Primeira República e o começo da desordem para alcançar a ordem. Neste sentido, procura-se inovar ao centrar a análise na observação da cultura bélica que circulou por caminhos formais e informais. Os textos produzidos pela imprensa periódica escrita nos diferentes níveis de poder, assim como os ocumentos confeccionados por instituições governamentais, permitem compreender como as percepções desse movimento armado estavam inseridas nos diversos discursos sobre a legitimidade da quebra da legalidade. Desta forma, diante da pluralidade de estudos historiográficos sobre esse evento, mostra-se um cenário teóricometodológico que aborda a tensão existente entre as matrizes interpretativas das culturas militar e política na constituição de uma aliança de poder que veio a convergir em uma representação bélica comum, onde o imaginário legalista foi alterado, permeando todas as instâncias de poder sulinas. O olhar sobre o dramático palco, repleto de incertezas e tensões, no complicado jogo político-militar, permite reviver os trágicos acontecimentos que fizeram sibilar os projéteis das armas nos campos de batalha do sul. A análise das fontes primárias do período desvenda como o intercâmbio dos poderes político e militar alicerçou esse movimento belicista na região meridional brasileira.

A pesquisa trata da expansão luso-brasileira e os indígenas do Planalto Meridional na primeira metade do século XIX. O objetivo é compreender esse processo de invasão e conquista imerso numa convivência com um Brasil Imperial e escravista. O estabelecimento de uma rede de beneficiários das atividades de guerra e caça aos indígenas na fronteira Sul de São Paulo Provincial, que através dos chamados usos e costumes da terra, continuariam a ser usados na condição de cativo nos Caminhos do Sul do Brasil. A investigação procura demonstrar que estes mundos fronteiriços são atravessados pelo movimento e pelo deslocamento entre essas fronteiras, e que mesmo no conflito, e na guerra, é possível identificar atitudes, ações, e estratégias, de alianças e negociações que forjaram esse encontro. Os povos originários atuaram das mais diversas formas mesmo diante de um processo de coerção excessiva, se não dominavam totalmente a política e as estratégias dos invasores e não indígenas tiravam proveito delas em suas possibilidades de interpretação, e encaminhavam a luta por seu espaço territorial que permitisse criar as próximas gerações e afirmar a continuidade de seu modo de vida, sua cultura e de seu povo.
The research regards the luso-brazilian expansion and the indigenous people of the Southern Plateau in the first half of the nineteenth century. The aim is to understand the process of invasion and conquest immersed in a living with a slave and Imperial Brazil. The establishment of a network of beneficiaries of the activities of war and indigenous hunting in the southern border of São Paulo province, which through the so-called uses and customs of the land, continued to be used in the condition of captive in the paths of southern Brazil. The research seeks to demonstrate that these bordering worlds are crossed by the movement and displacement of these boundaries, and even in conflict and war it is possible to identify attitudes, actions and strategies, alliances and negotiations that forged this clash. The aboriginal people have acted in many different ways even facing a process of excessive coercion, if they didn't master totally the politics and strategies of non-indigenous invaders, nevertherless took advantage of them in their possibilities of interpretation, and conducted the fight for their territorial space in a way to raise the next generation and to affirm the continuity of their way of life, their culture and their people.

O presente trabalho tem como temática a constituição de um campo memorialístico de direita formado por militares da reserva que atuaram, em graus variados, em órgãos de repressão e informação durante a ditadura empresarial-militar e que consideram que, não obstante tenham ganho no campo das armas, perderam na batalha das letras e da memória. Para tal, foram selecionados cinco livros escritos por militares que defendem uma memória positiva do período: Rompendo o Silêncio (1987) e A verdade Sufocada (2006), do coronel Carlos Alberto Brilhante Ustra; Nos porões da ditadura (1998) e 1964: uma revolução perdida (2002), do general Raymundo Negrão Torres; A grande mentira (2001), do general Agnaldo del Nero Augusto; Desfazendo mitos da luta armada (2006), do coronel Aluisio Madruga de Moura e Souza. Por meio da análise deste material, buscou-se compreender a forma como os autores se inserem na batalha da memória , os recursos argumentativos que utilizam para deslegitimar as esquerdas e suas memórias e a forma como avaliam o momento atual ao lançamento das obras. Dessa forma, pretendeu-se avançar no entendimento da ditadura como um passado ainda presente e como um campo vivo de disputas políticas.

Abstract : This study has as subject the constitution of a right-wing memorialistic formed by reserve militaries whose acted, in varied degrees, in information and repression agencies during the military dictatorship in Brasil, and considers that, despite having they win in the field of weapons, lost in the battle of letters and memory. To that end, five books written by the military that defend a positive memory of the period, have been selected: Rompendo o Silêncio (1987) and A verdade Sufocada (2006), by colonel Carlos Alberto Brilhante Ustra; Nos porões da ditadura (1998) e 1964: uma revolução perdida (2002), by general Raymundo Negrão Torres; A grande mentira (2001), by general Agnaldo del Nero Augusto; Desfazendo mitos da luta armada (2006), by colonel Aluisio Madruga de Moura e Souza. Through the analysis of this material, we sought to understand the way how the authors insert themselves in the memory battle , the argumentative resources they use to delegitimize the lefts and their memories and the way how they evaluate the exactly moment of the books release.. Therefore, this study were aims to go further in the comprehension about the dictatorship like a past that still alive in the political contests of the present.

Abstract:
Randomly entangled fibers forming loosely bound nonwoven structures are evaluated for use in lightweight armor applications. These materials sacrifice volumetric efficiency in order to realize a reduction in mass versus traditional armor materials, while maintaining equivalent ballistic performance. The primary material characterized, polyester fiberfill, is shown to have improved ballistic performance over control samples of monolithic polyester as well as 1095 steel sheets. The response of fiberfill is investigated at a variety of strain rates, from quasistatic to ballistic, under compression, tension, and shear deformation to elucidate mechanisms at work during ballistic defeat. Fiberfill’s primary mechanisms during loading are fiber reorientation, fiber unfurling, and frictional sliding. Frictional sliding, coupled with high macroscopic strain to failure, is thought to be the source of the high specific ballistic performance in fiberfill materials. The proposed armor is tested for penetration resistance against spherical and cylindrical 7.62 mm projectiles fired from a gas gun. A constitutive model incorporating the relevant deformation mechanisms of texture evolution and progressive damage is developed and implemented in Abaqus explicit in order to expedite further research on ballistic nonwoven fabrics.

Esta investigación se centrará en la vinculación entre la seguridad de las personas y la utilización y control de las armas. En concreto, se pretende determinar si la disponibilidad de armas de fuego y armas blancas, implica o no una mayor seguridad para quienes las poseen. Por consiguiente, se tratará en profundidad sólo un aspecto de la seguridad: aquel relacionado directamente con las consecuencias positivas/negativas que puede conllevar una alta disponibilidad de armas en manos de la población, para los efectos de una mayor seguridad de las personas y su entorno. Sin perjuicio de ello, no se perderá de vista el carácter multidimensional de la seguridad, lo cual es indispensable para dar una visión integral de los problemas que aquí están involucrados.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa se propõe a estudar as companhias de auxiliares de cavalaria da vila de Curitiba desde que Pombal ordenou sua reestruturação militar, em 1765, até 1777, quando os reinos ibéricos assinaram o Tratado de Santo Ildefonso. Os traços gerais desse corpo de armas já foram estudados por Nanci Leonzo e, localmente, por David Carneiro. Assim, aqui a intenção não é refazer essa história do ponto de vista unicamente militar; sobretudo, o que se objetiva é verificar como e se os indivíduos que integraram essas milícias se valeram de suas posições como signo de distinção social. A historiografia contemporânea que se dedica ao entendimento das sociabilidades coloniais destaca que aquela sociedade reproduzia, ao seu modo, os valores do Antigo Regime. Por isso, sabe-se que os lugares na hierarquia social eram tributários, em grande medida, a marcas de distinção como o prestigio e a qualidade. Além disso, tal historiografia vem destacando o peso do sentimento de pertencimento derivado da integração dos sujeitos às redes de poder propiciadas pela coroa lusitana. Ao mesmo tempo, indica que, estrategicamente os indivíduos se valiam desses cargos para traçarem estratégias e ascender posições na hierarquia social local. São esses pressupostos que orientam o plano analítico desse estudo.

O presente trabalho aborda o problema da legitimação do delito de disparo de arma de fogo prescrito no Estatuto do Desarmamento (Lei n. 10.826/03). Para tanto, empreende uma análise dogmática da figura típica correspondente, com a intenção de identificar os principais entraves existentes na imputação objetiva do resultado e encontrar-lhes um encaminhamento adequado às finalidades do Sistema jurídico-penal. Desenvolve a análise do objeto aplicando o método derivado do Modelo da “Ciência conjunta do direito penal”. Primeiramente, identifica o novo significado do comportamento de disparo no contexto das interações sociais próprias da sociedade pós-industrial, determinando um substrato criminológico a partir do qual a tutela penal da incolumidade pública adquire conteúdo e função. Em um segundo momento, fundamenta a criminalização do disparo por meio da valoração político-criminal da incolumidade pública como um valor digno de proteção penal e da ofensividade do comportamento de “disparo em local destinado à comunidade” como um resultado desvalioso para bem jurídico tutelado. Por fim, projeta os fundamentos teóricos, obtidos com as análises criminológica e político-criminal, na interpretação dogmática do tipo legal, revelando a definição dos elementos do injusto penal de forma concreta, mas não menos adequada sistematicamente. Conclui, assim, pela compreensão do delito de disparo na forma de uma espécie dos crimes contra a incolumidade pública, como sendo a melhor via para a legitimação da intervenção penal
The present work deals with the legitimacy matter of the misdeed of the shot set in the statute of disarmament. Hence, it executes a dogmatic analysis of the correspondent prohibitive norm, intending to identify the main barriers of the objective imputation of the result as well as to find an adequate path to the purposes of the juridical-penal System. It builds an analysis of the object by applying the derived method of the joint legal-criminal sciences Model. Firstly, it identifies the new significance of the shot in the post-industrial social interactions, defining a criminological base from which the public safety acquires content and function. Secondly, it bases the criminalisation of the shot by the criminal-political evaluation of the public safety as a value worthy of penal protection and by the offensiveness of the shot in a public area as an offensive result for the protected legal good. Lastly, it highlights the theoretical bases, which have been obtained by criminological and criminal-political analyses, in the dogmatic interpretation of the legal prohibition. This reveals the definition of the criminal illicit elements not only concretely, but also systematically adequate. It concludes by reinforcing the comprehension of the misdeed of the shot as a part of the crimes against public safety as being the best path for the penal intervention legitimacy

Full text
Abstract:
While current scholarship acknowledges the influence of Buddhist ideas on Julio Cortázar’s fiction, critical analysis of this element of his work does not often engage in depth with Buddhist thought. Buddhism is frequently characterised as something mystical or mythical when read in relation to the works of Cortázar. This approach leads to an insufficient reading of the highly important notion of the ‘centro’ in Rayuela (1963), whose symbolism, evoking a dynamic equilibrium, may be more successfully explored with closer reference to Buddhist philosophy. The Argentine author Marcelo Cohen has also engaged with Buddhist ideas in his works; his Buda (1990), a biography of the historical Buddha, testifies to this interest. Again, however, this aspect has not received full attention in critical scholarship. Given the importance of the use of negation in Cohen’s literature, comparing Cohen with Buddhist philosophy can enrich our understanding of many aspects of his works, such as his treatment of relationality. I have chosen to compare both Argentine authors with the Indian Buddhist philosopher Nāgārjuna, who is considered the founder of the Madhyamaka school, which is particularly associated with the theory of ‘emptiness’ (‘śūnyatā’). Nāgārjuna’s philosophy is cited directly in Cortázar’s poem ‘Canción de Gautama’ and Cohen’s Buda and informs a number of these writers’ other texts. The main body of the thesis is divided into three sections. These examine the triadic relation between time, identity and language, with each section focusing more on one of these three aspects in turn. The three chapters and three authors will be drawn together to form a new reading of the role of negation.

MBA Professional Report
In order to leverage buying power, reduce costs and improve supplier management, the United States Air Force (USAF) needs to take a strategic approach to acquiring goods and services. Both academic and business literature promotes strategic sourcing as a viable method of minimizing cost and guarding against materials disruptions. In addition, the Office of Management and Budget has required that each agency create strategic sourcing initiatives, monitor the cost savings and reports the results to the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. However, utilization of strategic sourcing techniques and processes within the USAF is relatively new and its full benefit has not been realized. Continued efforts by the USAF to integrate strategic sourcing into its acquisition processes will yield further cost savings and other related supply chain improvements. To assist with improving the strategic sourcing efforts of the USAF, this research seeks to identify viable methodologies for conducting industry analysis. This is important and relevant because conducting an industry analysis is a critical step toward developing an effective sourcing strategy.

Abstract:
D'un point de vue thematique, les romans d'armah peuvent se lire comme une tentative visant a la fois a presenter et a contester ce que l'auteur considere comme une vision tronquee de l'histoire et de la societe africaine. Il attribue cette vision a la fascination qu'exercent les valeurs occidentales sur l'imaginaire d'une elite alienee, arrivee au pouvoir apres les independances. Toutefois, la contestation de ces valeurs se repercute inevitablement sur l'evolution formelle de son ecriture : sa quete d'une vision authentique de la realite africaine implique aussi une tentative de rejet des principes esthetiques heritees de l'occident. La difficulte de l'entreprise transparait dans les ruptures stylistiques caracteristiques du premier roman ainsi que dans l'experimentation formelle incessante qui annonce l'ultime tentative (pas totalement reussie) : produire une oeuvre de fiction calquee sur les techniques narratives et linguistiques specifiques a la tradition orale
From a thematic point of view, armah's novels may be read as an attempt both to present and to counter what the author considers as the false vision of african history and society propagated by the intellectual and political elite which came to power after independence. He attributes this vision to the psychological and cultural alienation of a people mentally enslaved by their fascination for western values. However, the author's questioning of these values has evident repercussions on his novels' formal evolution in so far as his quest for an authentic vision of african reality also implies an attempt to reject the aesthetic principles inherited from the west. The difficulty of the task is apparent in the stylistic clashes characteristic of the first novel as well as in the incessant formal experimentation which precedes the author's final, and not entirely successful, attempt to model his fiction on the linguistic and narrative techniques specific to the oral tradition

Abstract:
Desde o fim da Guerra Fria, os Estados Unidos promoveram a noção da existência de \"Rogue States\", denominando-os \"novos inimigos\". No entanto, o termo confere muitas controvérsias em torno de sua definição, principalmente dos critérios que conferem o rótulo a tais atores. A irracionalidade na tomada de decisões e a busca pela aquisição de armas nucleares se apresentam como características fundamentais. Através da análise dos discursos americanos sobre rogue states, e sob a perspectiva construtivista, podemos depreender que o discurso foi utilizado como forma de corroborar as ações norte-americanas em relação a estes países, ao mesmo tempo em que moldavam as próprias estratégias americanas, uma vez que os atos de fala conferem uma ação em si. As ações tomadas diante de uma situação são definidas a partir da percepção deste fato e do significado que o ator dará a ele. Assim, o apontamento de certos países como sendo Rogue States pelos Estados Unidos serviu para distinguir entre os países do Sistema Internacional \"aqueles que deveriam ser combatidos\". Alguns críticos do termo afirmam que o critério de racionalidade aplicado a estados como Coreia do Norte e Irã é muito mais rigoroso que aquele aplicado aos demais estados, mesmo a USSR durante a Guerra Fria. O presente trabalho pretende avaliar o surgimento do termo rogue state e sua utilização pelo governo norte-americano como política oficial. Através de dois artigos, busca-se entender a construção do conceito de rogue state, levando-se em consideração as teorias construtivistas, principalmente dos teóricos da chamada virada linguística. Uma vez que o debate da irracionalidade está diretamente ligado a busca pela obtenção de armas nucleares - critério-chave para o apontamento como rogue-, pretende-se também avaliar as suposições para tal classificação através da investigação dos programas nucleares dos dois países na atualidade que estão no centro do debate nuclear- Irã e Coreia do Norte.
Since the end of the Cold War, the United States promoted the notion of the existence of \"Rogue States\", designating them as \"new enemies\". However, the term presents many controversies surrounding its definition, especially about the criteria that confer the label to such actors. The irrationality in decision-making and the pursuit of nuclear weapons are presented as the core characteristics of the concept. Through the analysis of American discourses on rogue states, and under the constructivist perspective, one can infer that the speech was used as a way of corroborating the U.S. actions towards these countries, while that shaped the American strategies themselves, once the speech acts are an action itself. Actions taken towards a situation are defined according to the perceptions and meaning the actor will give to it. Thus, the indication of certain countries as Rogue States by the United States served to distinguish among the countries of International System \"those who should be fought\". Some critics of the term argue that the criterion of rationality applied to states like North Korea and Iran is much more rigorous than the one applied to other states, even the USSR during the Cold War. This work intends to evaluate the emergence of the term rogue state and its use by the U.S. government as an official policy. Through two articles, we seek to understand the construction of the rogue state concept, taking into account the constructivist theories, especially the theory of so-called linguistic turn. Since the discussion of irrationality is directly linked to the search for acquiring nuclear weapons - key characteristic of a rogue-, it also intends to evaluate the assumptions for such classification by investigating the nuclear programs of both countries currently at the center of the nuclear debate -Iran and North Korea.

Abstract:
Boron carbide (B₄C) is a non-oxide ceramic in the same class of nonmetallic hard materials as silicon carbide and diamond. The high hardness, high elastic modulus and low density of B₄C make it a nearly ideal material for personnel and vehicular armor. B₄C plates formed via hot-pressing are currently issued to U.S. soldiers and have exhibited excellent performance; however, hot-pressed articles contain inherent processing defects and are limited to simple geometries such as low-curvature plates. Recent advances in the pressureless sintering of B₄C have produced theoretically-dense and complex-shape articles that also exhibit superior ballistic performance. However, the cost of this material is currently high due to the powder shape, size, and size distribution that are required, which limits the economic feasibility of producing such a product. Additionally, the low fracture toughness of pure boron carbide may have resulted in historically lower transition velocities (the projectile velocity range at which armor begins to fail) than competing silicon carbide ceramics in high-velocity long-rod tungsten penetrator tests. Lower fracture toughness also limits multi-hit protection capability. Consequently, these requirements motivated research into methods for improving the densification and fracture toughness of inexpensive boron carbide composites that could result in the development of a superior armor material that would also be cost-competitive with other high-performance ceramics. The primary objective of this research was to study the effect of titanium and carbon additives on the sintering and mechanical properties of inexpensive B₄C powders. The boron carbide powder examined in this study was a submicron (0.6 μm median particle size) boron carbide powder produced by H.C. Starck GmbH via a jet milling process. A carbon source in the form ofphenolic resin, and titanium additives in the form of 32 nm and 0.9 μm TiO₂ powders were selected. Parametric studies of sintering behavior were performed via high-temperature dilatometry in order to measure the in-situ sample contraction and thereby measure the influence of the additives and their amounts on the overall densification rate. Additionally, broad composition and sintering/post-HIPing studies followed by characterization and mechanical testing elucidated the effects of these additives on sample densification, microstructure development, and mechanical properties such as Vickers hardness and microindentation fracture toughness. Based upon this research, a process has been developed for the sintering of boron carbide that yielded end products with high relative densities (i.e., 100%, or theoretical density), microstructures with a fine (∼2-3 μm) grain size, and high Vickers microindentation hardness values. In addition to possessing these improved physical properties, the costs of producing this material were substantially lower (by a factor of 5 or more) than recently patented work on the pressureless sintering and post-HIPing of phase-pure boron carbide powder. This recently patented work developed out of our laboratory utilized an optimized powder distribution and yielded samples with high relative densities and high hardness values. The current work employed the use of titanium and carbon additives in specific ratios to activate the sintering of boron carbide powder possessing an approximately mono-modal particle size distribution. Upon heating to high temperatures, these additives produced fine-scale TiO ₂ and graphite inclusions that served to hinder grain growth and substantially improve overall sintered and post-HIPed densities when added in sufficient concentrations. The fine boron carbide grain size manifested as a result of these second phase inclusions caused a substantial increase in hardness; the highest hardness specimen yielded a hardness value (2884.5 kg/mm²) approaching that of phase-pure and theoretically-dense boron carbide (2939 kg/mm²). Additionally, the same high-hardness composition exhibited a noticeably higher fracture toughness (3.04 MPa•m¹/²) compared to phase-pure boron carbide (2.42 MPa• m¹/²), representing a 25.6% improvement. A potential consequence of this study would be the development of a superior armor material that is sufficiently affordable, allowing it to be incorporated into the general soldier’s armor chassis.

Abstract:
Consider a Gaussian stationary stochastic vector process with the property that designated pairs of components are conditionally independent given the rest of the components. Such processes can be represented on a graph where the components are nodes and the lack of a connecting link between two nodes signifies conditional independence. This leads to a sparsity pattern in the inverse of the matrix-valued spectral density. Such graphical models find applications in speech, bioinformatics, image processing, econometrics and many other fields, where the problem to fit an autoregressive (AR) model to such a process has been considered. In this paper we take this problem one step further, namely to fit an autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) model to the same data. We develop a theoretical framework and an optimization procedure which also spreads further light on previous approaches and results. This procedure is then applied to the identification problem of estimating the ARMA parameters as well as the topology of the graph from statistical data.

Abstract:
Achieving light weight armor design has become an important engineering challenge in the last three decades. As weapons becoming highly sophisticated, so does the ammunition, potential targets have to be well protected against such threats. In order to provide mobility, light and effective armor protection materials should be used. In this thesis, numerical simulation of the silicon carbide armor backed by KevlarTM composite and orthogonally impacted by 7.62mm armor piercing (AP) projectile at an initial velocity of 850 m/s is analyzed by using AUTODYN hydrocode. As a first step, ceramic material behavior under impact conditions is validated numerically by comparing the numerical simulation result with the test result which is obtained from the literature. Then, different numerical simulations are performed by changing the backing material thickness, i.e. 2, 4, 6 and 8mm, while the thickness of the ceramic is held constant, i.e. 8mm. At the end of the simulations, optimum ceramic/composite thickness ratio is sought. The results of the simulations showed that for the backing thickness values of 4, 6 and 8mm, the projectile could not perforate the armor system. On the contrary, the projectile could penetrate and perforate the armor system for the backing thickness value of 2mm and it has still some residual velocity. From these results, it is inferred that the optimum ceramic/composite thickness ratio is equal to about 2 for the silicon carbide and kevlar configuration.

O estudo “Bioética e Armas Biológicas no Contexto Internacional” investiga a aplicação de análise sob a ótica da bioética de intervenção a diálogos internacionais no âmbito de um sistema de estados. O estudo de caso testa o método de investigação que consiste na identificação de valores e posicionamentos contratantes entre países desenvolvidos e em desenvolvimento e suas possibilidades de incorporação a regras, normas e regulações adotadas pela comunidade internacional. Nesse processo é verificado o equilíbrio de oportunidades entre países do Norte e do Sul para inserirem suas necessidades e interesses nas normas de convivência entre Estados como indicativo das condições de justiça e equidade no âmbito do diálogo internacional. As armas biológicas são tomadas como estudo de caso por sua relação intrínseca com a saúde e com a integridade de populações vulneráveis dos países periféricos. _______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The study "Bioethics and biological weapons in an international context" investigates the application of an analysis from the perspective of intervention bioethics to international dialogues within a system of States. The case study tests the research method which consists in identifying and contrasting positions between developed and developing countries and their possibilities of their incorporation to rules, standards and regulations adopted by the international community. The analysis also considers the balance of opportunities between countries from the North and the South to insert their needs and interests in the rules of coexistence among States as indicative of the conditions of justice and equity in international dialogue. Biological weapons are taken as a case study for its intrinsic relationship with human health and the health of vulnerable populations of peripheral countries.

Abstract:
Den svenska polisen har många problem med deras skyddsvästar. Rikspolisstyrelsen har även märkt att det särskilt är skyddsvästen för kvinnor som de har mest problem med. Utifrån intervjuer med kvinnliga poliser i Stockholm har det kommit fram vilka de olika problemen med skyddsvästen är. Alla tyckte att det blir alldeles för varmt med västen på, särskilt på sommaren. Materialet andas intetillräckligt bra. Många känner även smärtor i både rygg och axlar. Den är för kort så den skär in i magen. Den blir framtung av extraplattan på framsidan. Ett annat problem många pratade om var att skyddsvästen sitter åt så tight så det blir svårt att andas djupa andetag om de behöver göra ansträngande uppgifter så som att springa efter någon. På grund av detta och att den dessutom blir så varm gör att många knäpper upp västen i sidan för att få in mer luft och kunna vidga bröstkorgen. Syftet med projektet är att besvara de två frågor, primär och sekundär, som ställts av FOI: 1.Hur skulle skyddsvästar vara konstruerade och utformade om de vore designade för kvinnlig personal? 2.Finns det anledning att ifrågasätta dagens standardiserade skadekriterier om bärarens kroppsvikt minskar avsevärt? Projektet har varit en iterativ process och många metoder har använts. Intervjuer och workshop har gjorts med användarna för att ha deras behov i fokus. Brainstorming och prototyper har gjorts för att enkelt kunna visa och förstå funktionerna av västarna. En kombinationsbrainstorming gjordes för att seom de olika koncepten kunde kombineras och därmed bli ännu bättre. Därefter har ett konceptval gjorts med hjälp av konceptutvärderingsmetoder så som QFD och en Pugh matris där användarnas krav har stått som grund.Det koncept som var mest omtyckt av användarna och även fick best betyg i utvärderingarna var det som var mest flexibelt. Det koncept som tillåter användarna att kunna ta djupa andetag när de utövar fysisk aktivitet. Den väst där användarna slipper knäppa upp i sidan för att låta bröstkorgen utvidgas.Västen har bättre skydd i sidan så även om skyddsvästen skulle knäppas upp kommer den ändå skydda polisen mot eventuella projektiler.Olika material för skyddsvästens yttre hölje har undersökts. Ett material som andas bra och leder bortfukt bra är det som sökts. Det material som valdes är ett naturligt funktionsmaterial som kan absorbera fukt upp till 30 % av sin vikt och på så sätt hållakroppen torr.Svaret på den andra frågeställningen har diskuterats fram. Tidigare forskning har inte dragit några slutsatser om bärarens vikt bidrar till ökad eller minskad skada från en projektil. Därför har en diskussion utifrån tidigare forskning gjorts och slutsatser har dragits mellan dem. Slutsatsen är att;Ja, det finns anledning att ifrågasätta skadekriterierna om bärarens vikt minskar avsevärt.En slutsats som dragits är att det behövs en mer nära relation mellan utveckling av dagens västar och användaren.
The Swedish police have many problems with their body armor. The National Police have noticed that it particularly is the body armor made for women that they have the most problems with. Based on interviews with female police officers in Stockholm, it has emerged what the various problems with the armor is. Every one of the interviewees thought that it is far too warm with the body armor on, especially in summer. The material does not breathe well enough. Many of them also feel pain in the back and shoulders. It's too short so it chafes into the stomach. It becomes front heavy with extra plate in the front. Another problem many of them talked about was that the body armor is too tight so it becomes difficult to take deep breaths if they would have to do exhausting tasks such as running after someone. Because of this, and that it also gets so warm makes many of them unbuttoning the vest in the sides to ventilate and be able to expand the chest.The project aim is to answer the two questions, primary and secondary, that is compiled by FOI: 1. How would body armor be designed if they were made for female staff? 2. Is there a reason to question today’s standardized injury criterias if the users body weight is significantly reduced? The project has been an iterative process, and many methods have been used. Interviews and workshops have been made with the users to have their needs in focus. Brainstorming and prototyping has been made to easily view and understand the features of the vests. A combination brainstorming was done to see if the different concepts could be combined and thereby become even better. After that a concept selection was made using concept evaluation methods such as QFD and a Pugh matrix where the user requirements have been the foundation.The concept that was most liked by the users and also got best rating in the evaluations was the one that is the most flexible. It is the concept that allows the users to take deep breaths when exercising physical activity. It is the vest where the users do not have to unbutton in the side to let the chest expand. The vest also has better protection in side so even if the armor would be unbuttoned, it will still protect the police against projectiles.Various materials for the body armors outer casing have been investigated. A material that has a high breathability and can lead the moisture away is the material that has been sought. The chosen material is a natural functional material that can absorb moisture up to 30% of its weight and therefore is keeping the body dry.The answer to the secondary question has been discussed. Previous research has not drawn any conclusions about if the wearer's weight contributes to an increased or decreased injury from a projectile. Therefore, a discussion based on previous research done and conclusions have been drawn between them. The conclusion is that; Yes, there are reasons to doubt the injury criteria if the wearer's weight is significantly reduced.A conclusion drawn is that a closer relationship between the development of today's vests and user is needed.

Aunque se habla del Tratado sobre Comercio de Armas (TCA), este no es todavía una norma internacional en vigor. La ausencia de un estándar internacional que reglamente el tráfico internacional de armas y municiones movió a un grupo de Nobel de la Paz a solicitar en el año 1997 la adopción de un código de conducta internacional en materia de transferencias de armamento. En el año 2000, un conjunto de organizaciones no gubernamentales internacionales redactaron un primer borrador de la Convención Marco sobre Transferencias Internacionales de Armas y en el año 2003 lanzaron la campaña “Armas bajo Control”, apoyada inicialmente por tres Estados.

Neste trabalho vai-se proceder ao estudo e à aplicação prática sobre sucessões cronológicas reais dos modelos vectoriais ARMA. Estes modelos generalizam os modelos univariados ARMA e os modelos multivariados de função transferência, tendo vantagem sobre estes últimos porque permitem a análise conjunta de sucessões cronológicas que apresentam efeito de feedback. E de esperar que a modelação conjunta de sucessões potencie a capacidade de as descrever, obtendo-se ganhos significativos em termos previsionais. Deste modo, procerder-se-á ao estudo, com base na análise de dois exemplos concretos, do comportamento dos modelos vectoriais ARMA, conffontando-os com os resultados obtidos pelos modelos univariados e pelos modelos de função transferência.
The aim of this work is to present the methodology of the vectorial ARMA models applied to real time series. These models are generalisations of the univariate ARMA models and of the multivariate transfer function models. The advantage of the vectorial ARMA modelling is to allow the joint analysis of the time series which exhibit feedback effects. It is our intention to show that this joint modelization increases the capacity of describing and forecasting. The application was made with the use of two real examples comparing the results ffom the vectorial ARMA, the univariate and the transfer function modelling.

Armor is a key component of ground vehicle survivability, as has been developed and redesigned throughout history in response to different threats and missions. This thesis aims to study and analyze the how armor has changed through major conflicts, from World War I to Operation Iraqi Freedom, and some of the driving factors that influenced those changes. This thesis would also do a discussion on the threats ground vehicles are expected to face and how they work, which has significant implications on how armor can be designed to defeat them or minimize the damage sustained as a result. Finally, this thesis would discuss the various aspects of armor design that can be looked at to reduce the vulnerability of a ground vehicle, and how they are characterized. This thesis also aims to set a foundation for the development of a ground vehicle survivability discipline in NPS in the future.

Abstract:
A aquisição de um equipamento, em especial dadas as atuais restrições financeiras tem que ser um processo bem planeado. Esta aquisição tem implicações importantes nas capacidades de uma Arma ou Serviço do Exército Português tendo como tal que se adequar aos objetivos pretendidos. Assim é necessário um estudo pormenorizado dos materiais disponíveis para nos podermos pronunciar conscientemente sobre a aquisição de um sistema adequado às necessidades Portuguesas. Este trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar o Sistema de Artilharia Antiaérea Portuguesa nomeadamente nos seus componentes essenciais - Sistemas de Armas, Sistemas de Deteção e Alerta e Sistema de Comando e Controlo, comparando-o com outros equipamentos de Artilharia Antiaérea existentes noutros Exércitos e apresentar uma proposta de reequipamento. Na execução deste trabalho utilizámos as fases de redação de trabalhos sugerida por Freixo (Freixo, 2012). Para a recolha de dados foram utilizados Manuais Técnicos, Publicações e ainda opiniões recolhidas por meio de 8 (oito) entrevistas realizadas. Comparamos posteriormente as características e opções de reequipamento para sugerirmos um sistema para cada lacuna identificada. Considerados os resultados podemos verificar que a Artilharia Antiaérea Portuguesa não possui um Sistema Automático de Comando e Controlo, nem capacidade de detetar, identificar, neutralizar ou destruir ameaças que utilizem médias e altas altitudes. Os Sistemas existentes com capacidade de detetar, identificar, neutralizar ou destruir ameaças a baixas e muito baixas altitudes carecem de atualizações. Concluiu-se então que a Artilharia Antiaérea Portuguesa carece de atualizações, através de reequipamento, devendo para isso ser estabelecidas prioridades. Propõe-se como 1ª prioridade a aquisição de um Sistema Automático de Comando e Controlo, como 2ª prioridade o reequipamento dos Sistemas de Deteção e Alerta e por fim a aquisição Sistemas de Armas. Dentro das categorias de Sistemas de Armas a prioridade recai sobre os sistemas vocacionados para as baixas altitudes em detrimento dos sistemas de média e alta altitude.
Abstract The acquisition of an equipment, due to the present financial restraints, has to be a well-planned process. That acquisition has important implications in the capacities of a Branches of the Portuguese Army therefore it has to adapt to the pretended objectives. For this reason it is necessary to study the available equipments so that we can consciously pronounce over the acquisition of an equipment. This research paper has as its objective to characterize the Portuguese Air Defense Systems namely the weapon systems, the detection and alert systems and the automatic command and control systems, in comparison with other existent Armies Air Defense equipments and suggest a re-equipment possibility. To the fulfillment of this research paper, we followed the wording phases suggested by Freixo (Freixo, 2012). For the picking of the information we relied in manuals, publications and opinions collected through 8 interviews. We then compared the characteristics and re-equipment options to suggest a system to fill every gap. Bearing in mind the results, we can verify that the Portuguese Air Defense Artillery doesn’t possess an automatic command and control system neither the capacity to shoot down a threat that moves in medium to high altitude. It has systems that allow the capacity to shoot down threats moving in low altitude yet they need to be upgraded. We concluded that the Air Defense Artillery needs to be upgraded. Therefore as reequipment priorities we suggest in first place an automatic command and control system, in second place detection and alerting systems and lastly weapon systems. Within the weapon systems, the priority goes to the weapon systems to shoot down threats moving in low altitude over the weapon systems to shoot down threats moving in medium to high altitudes.

Abstract:
As Armas Combinadas são empregues desde a antiguidade, mas só de há alguns séculos para cá aparece a palavra, e se começa a abordar a temática. O Séc. XX está repleto de exemplos do emprego do conceito de Armas Combinadas. Já no Séc XVII, Antoine Jomini, começa a aborda-lo, e desde então, há muitos autores a debruçar-se sobre o tema, destacando-se desde já militares ilustres como John Fuller, Liddel Hart, Heinz Guderian, Mikhail Tukhachevsky, entre outros. Nesta investigação iremos definir o conceito de Armas de Combinadas e os fatores que influenciam o emprego destas no Séc. XX. Os fatores referidos são a Doutrina e as Táticas, a Organização, o Equipamento e o Armamento. Iremos efetuar então uma análise histórica destes fatores, dividindo cada um por quatro períodos: 1ª Guerra Mundial, Período entre Guerras, 2ª Guerra Mundial e o Pós-1945 até ao final do Séc. XX. Iremos perceber como cada um dos fatores influenciou os diferentes exércitos na forma de combinar as Armas Combatentes, e as razões do sucesso ou insucesso quando foram empregues nos conflitos do Séc. XX. Os exércitos analisados nesta investigação foram os principais intervenientes nas Guerras Mundiais, ou seja, o francês, o alemão, o inglês, o soviético e o americano. Dedicamos ainda um capítulo ao exército Português, que desde o momento em que entrou na OTAN (Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte), começou a formar unidades de Armas Combinadas de modo a cumprir os requisitos impostos pela Aliança, a qual aderiu em 1949. Para que a arte de combinar as diferentes Armas resulte, de forma a obter-se uma efetiva sinergia entre elas, é essencial que os comandantes percebam que cada Arma é fundamental, e que ponham de parte os tradicionalismos, para que nada possa pôr em causa o sucesso no moderno campo de batalha.
Abstract Combined Arms have been applied since past times, but only a few centuries ago does the term appear, and only than does the topic start to be studied. The XX Century is full of examples of the application of the concept of Combined Arms. In the XVII Century Antoine Jomini starts to approach the study of the topic. Since than there have been many persons who have studied the theme and thus to name a few illustrious Military Men as John Fuller, Liddel Hart, Heinz Guderian, Mikhail Tuchachevsky, amongst others. In this investigation we shall define the concept of Combined Arms and the factors that influence their use in the XX Century. The referred to factors are the Doctrines, the Tactics, the Organization, the Equipment and the Armament. We shall, therefore, effect a historical analyse of the factors, dividing each factor in four parts: 1st World War, the Period between Wars, 2nd World War and Post 1945 until the end of Century XX. We shall understand how each factor influenced the different Armies in the manner of Combining Arms, and the reason for their success or failure to succeed when they were applied in conflicts in the XX Century. The Armies analysed in this investigation are the principal intervention Armies in the World Wars, or be it, the French, the Germans, the English, the Soviets and the Americans. We also dedicate a chapter to the Portuguese Army, because since we joined NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), we started to form Combined Arms units to fulfil the requisitions imposed by the Alliance, which we adhered to in 1949. For the art of combining different Arms to result, and to be able to obtain an effective synergy between them, it is essential that the Commanders understand that each Arm is fundamental, and that they put aside traditionalisms, so that nothing puts in jeopardy the success in the modern battlefield.

Abstract:
Since World War II, the United States Army has been fielding combat vehicles with greater mobility, firepower, and survivability. The tactics and doctrine of the Army have become more offensively oriented to improve the utilization of these new combat systems' capabilities. The Warsaw Pact forces have been making similar improvements in their equipment and doctrine. While these advances have been made in the areas of combat vehicles, the logistic vehicles tasked to provide the logistic support for the combat vehicles and the AirLand Battle doctrine have not changed since the 1940s. The modern Army is still supported by wheeled, soft-skinned vehicles similar to the vehicles are lacking the mobility of modern fighting vehicles, and do not provide protection to the crew and cargo from artillery and small arms fire. The United States Army needs improved logistic vehicles if it to be successful on the modern lethal battlefield. Based upon this concept, this thesis will analyze two different logistic vehicles and five doctrines for support of the modern Army. Keywords: Statistical analysis, Resupply vehicles
