Abstract:
Waist circumference (WC) is a measure of central adiposity related to elevated risk factor levels in children and adolescents. The aim of the present study was to describe WC percentiles in 7- to 10-year-old Brazilian children and to compare frequencies of obesity and overweight as defined by BMI and frequencies of excess and at risk of abdominal adiposity as defined by WC to the corresponding age and sex data from British references. A representative sample of 2919 schoolchildren of the city of Florianopolis (southern Brazil) was examined. Smoothed WC percentiles were derived using the least mean square method. Frequencies of overweight and obesity and of excess and at risk of abdominal adiposity were assessed using the 91st and 98th centiles of the British references as cut-off points. WC increased with age in both boys and girls, with higher values for boys at every age and percentile level. Nutritional status categories of children assessed by the 91st and 98th British BMI and WC centiles showed moderate agreement (weighted κ = 0·58). Overweight was more frequent in Brazilian than British children: 15·1 % of girls and 20·1 % of boys were above the 91st percentile of the 1990 BMI for age British references. About one-quarter (22·0 % of girls and 26·9 % of boys) exceeded the 91st percentile of WC British references. The present data could be used to compare WC in children in other populations and may serve as a baseline for future studies of temporal trends in WC in Brazil.

Abstract:
Introduction: In the diagnosis of overweight and obesity based on body mass index in children and adolescents, several national and international anthropometric references are recommended. However, there is a divergence in the estimated prevalence of overweight and obesity among the references. Objective: To identify the prevalence of overweight and obesity and to analyse the magnitude of agreement among the three references. Methods: A cross-sectional study with 975 students from the early grades of elementary school. The prevalence of overweight and obesity were estimated according to the criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO), the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) and Conde and Monteiro. The Kappa weighted index was calculated to assess the agreement magnitude among the three references. Results: The highest prevalence of overweight and obesity was estimated by the Conde and Monteiro and WHO references, respectively. Overall, the IOTF revealed lower a magnitude of prevalence than the two other references. The agreement among the references identified by the Kappa index had a range of 0.66 to 0.94. Conclusion: Despite the satisfactory agreement among the three references, this research highlighted the differing magnitudes of the prevalence of overweight and obesity. This fact limits the ability to make comparisons among populations and impairs the development of overweight and obesity prevention actions.

Abstract:
This paper studies the determinants of international citations by Brazilian economists in papers published in the top domestic journals in 1994 and 2004. Brazilian research in economics has become more open to international influence and widespread geographically; researchers more specialized and technically oriented and the research topics more diversified. However, Brazil is plagued by editorial favoritism, reflected in the negative and significant impact of references to the works authored by domestic journals editors on international citations. We also find that longer technical papers written on topics other than the economic history of Brazil are more likely to cite foreign literature.

Abstract:
The Brazilian disc test is a simple and useful technique to determine the tensile strength of rock materials. By using FLAC3D, 63 numerical simulations in total were performed when flattened Brazilian disc coefficient and Poisson’s ratio were different. Based on Griffith theory, the corresponding FISH language was compiled to record the Griffith equivalent stress. Through analysis of numerical simulation results, it is indicated that fracture plane was not the plane going through center of the Brazilian disc, which was in good agreement with the references. In addition, the flattened Brazilian disc coefficients had greater influence on tensile strength than Poisson’s ratio. Based on cusp catastrophe theory, the flattened Brazilian disc coefficient should not exceed 0.035 for the flattened Brazilian disc tests. Consequently, a tensile strength empirical formula considering flattened Brazilian disc coefficient by utilizing the flattened Brazilian disc test was established, which wasσt=0.9993 exp (-11.65ε)2p/πDt,ε≤0.035.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Harvard political science professor Samuel P. Huntington (1927–2008) made visits to Brazil in 1972 and 1974 to advise the government about ‘decompression’ or regime liberalisation. The literature on Brazil's dictatorship references these visits as having had a major causal impact. This article argues that his influence on Brazilian regime change is greatly exaggerated. It also argues that Huntington, who became a leading theorist of democratisation, had an interest in and commitment to democracy that was more recent and circumstantial than is often thought. This helps to explain the current period of democratic ‘deconsolidation’ associated with the rise of authoritarian national populism in Brazil.

As representações do corpo feminino na publicidade têm sido pauta para discussões acadêmicas quando entendidas como forma de capital na cultura brasileira. Nesta pesquisa, temos como objetivo compreender como ocorre a representação do corpo como propaganda de brasilidade em campanhas de repercussão midiática protagonizadas pela modelo Gisele Bündchen para as marcas Grendene, Hope e Banco do Brasil. Utilizamos como metodologia a análise de imagem guiada por Martine Joly e Jacques Aumont. O trabalho apresenta como fundamentação teórica as leituras de Gilberto Freyre, Roberto Da Matta e Sérgio Buarque de Holanda para traçar elementos identitários de brasilidade; Jean Baudrillard, Gilles Lipovetsky e Everardo Rocha para refletir sobre os significados da publicidade; Le Breton, Denise Siqueira e Mirian Goldenberg para estudar as nuanças do corpo brasileiro; e os estudos de Sandra Pesavento para tratar das representações. Concluímos que a publicidade toma os referenciais de beleza, de credibilidade e de sucesso da imagem de Gisele Bündchen como o corpo propaganda do Brasil, na intenção de transferir os mesmos significados para a marca anunciada.
The representations of the female body in advertising have been agenda for academic discussions when understood as a form of capital in Brazilian culture. In this research we aim to understand how the representation of the body occurs as propaganda of Brazilian references in media campaigns impact protagonized by model Gisele Bündchen for brands like Grendene, Hope and Banco do Brasil. As the main methodology, we decided to use the image analysis guided by Martine Joly and Jacques Aumont. The paper presents theoretical readings such as Gilberto Freyre, Roberto Da Matta and Sergio Buarque de Holanda to trace identity elements of Brazilian references; Jean Baudrillard, Gilles Lipovetsky and Everardo Rocha to reflect on the meanings of advertising; Le Breton, Denise Siqueira and Mirian Goldenberg to study the nuances of Brazilian body, and studies by Sandra Pesavento to talk about representations. We conclude that advertising takes the references of beauty, credibility and success of the image of the body like Gisele Bündchen of Brazil advertising, intending to transfer the same meanings for the advertised brand.

Abstract:
Different forms convey future temporal reference in Portuguese. The recognition of these forms is a starting point towards examining their actual usage in the language. Of four acknowledged future forms, only two, i.e. the periphrastic ir + infinitive and the present variants, are productively used in contemporary spoken Brazilian Portuguese. There was therefore a need for reconstructing the future temporal reference system of early Portuguese, in order to shed light on the development of these forms in the future sector. This study employs the methods of comparative and variationist linguistics in diachronic and synchronic data to analyse this development. These methods made it possible to identify the conditioning factors contributing to the selection of the variants in future contexts throughout the centuries and establish the direction of the linguistic evolution. The first analyses concern the use of the future variants in the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. They reveal that three variants were productively used to express the future: the synthetic future, haver + infinitive and the present. The synthetic future, which is acknowledged as the default form by prescriptive literature, had the highest overall probability of occurrence at that time, and was mainly favoured by contingent events, stative verbs and affirmative statements. The second analyses concern the use of the variants in the nineteenth century: the synthetic future, haver + infinitive, the present and ir + infinitive. In that century, the synthetic future lost two of its favoured contexts, contingent events and affirmative utterances, to the present variant and ir + infinitive, respectively. That century witnessed the emergence of an adverbial specification pattern in Brazilian Portuguese that has also been observed in French. The last analyses are related to the use of the future variants in the twentieth century. The results for the written data reveal that (i) haver + infinitive moved away from the future sector; (ii) the synthetic future declined; and (iii) the use of ir + infinitive highly increased. In the spoken data, only contingency and adverbial specification retained the present variant in the language. Ir + infinitive has almost completed its process of grammaticalization. This research reveals that the future variants have been in variation for centuries in Portuguese, and have been involved in a complex process of incursion and withdrawal from the future context, which ultimately changed the representation of future temporal reference in contemporary Brazilian Portuguese. The variationist methodology makes it possible to ascertain that the difference in frequency of variant usage in the different centuries is correlated to their displacement of or expansion into specific linguistic contexts.

Muitas organizações estão planejando investir ou já investiram dinheiro, tempo e recursos no reúso de software. Com esse investimento, essas organizações esperam melhorar a sua competitividade no mercado por meio da redução de custos e esforço, aumento da produtividade e melhoria da qualidade e da confiabilidade dos produtos de software desenvolvidos. Um problema comum é que as abordagens de reúso nas organizações são consideradas, normalmente, como um problema de adoção tecnológica (ambientes e ferramentas) e de processos, que focam nos aspectos técnicos do reúso. Neste cenário, processos de adoção de reúso - ou estratégias, modelos ou programas - têm se destacado na área como um facilitador para obter os benefícios associados ao reúso de software. No entanto, os processos existentes apresentam alguns problemas cruciais, como, por exemplo, serem fortemente relacionados a tecnologias específicas; demandarem um alto investimento inicial; além de não definirem de forma sistemática e suficientemente detalhada as atividades, papéis, entradas e as saídas de todo o processo. Assim, este trabalho propõe um modelo de referência de reuso de software para auxiliar nos processos de adoção e avaliação da capacidade de reúso nas organizações, baseado no estado da arte e da prática da área. Essa definição foi embasada por estudos detalhados sobre processos de adoção de reúso, modelos de referência de reúso e métodos de avaliação de capacidade em reutilização, envolvendo pesquisas informais, estudos empíricos e relatos de empresas. Com esta tese, pretende-se demonstrar que é possível estabelecer, para as empresas que desejam adotar reúso, um caminho mais seguro e com menores riscos e custos do que uma estratégia de reúso ad-hoc. Neste cenário, espera-se alcançar os seguintes objetivos: (i) aperfeiçoar o desempenho de alguns aspectos do desenvolvimento por meio de práticas de reúso (custo, qualidade, produtividade, competitividade da organização, entre outros); e (ii) redução dos riscos na adoção e/ou aperfeiçoamento de um programa de reúso, dando suporte a um processo incremental

Abstract:
Woody species of the Brazilian Cerrado show morphological and functional adaptations to the soil water, soil nutrient and fire stresses of the Cerrado environment. This thesis considers these adaptations in relation to the growth and photosynthesis of Cerrado woody species, and in particular Kielmeyera coriacea Mart. (Guttiferae). Growth of K. coriacea and other Cerrado woody seedlings under field conditions is slow, but within the range seen for other late successional woody species. K. coriacea displays a limited growth rate plasticity in response to favourable conditions, with a maximum potential specific growth rate of 0.054 d-1. K. coriacea has relatively high unit leaf rates, but low leaf area ratios, due to an inherent low specific leaf area (SLA). Low SLA values are compounded by a rapid ontogenic decline in leaf weight ratio (LWR). Declining LWR is due to high biomass partitioning to root development. Within the root and shoot, partitioning is biphasic, with an initial 'establishment' phase of leaf and lateral root favoured development, and a secondary phase dominated by main root, i.e. xylopodium, development. The cotyledons have a maximum net photosynthetic rate of 11.0 μmol m-2 s-1 under favourable conditions, and provide the majority of photosynthate for the 'establisment' phase. Leaf emergence is episodic, or flushing, and individual leaf areas vary depending on their position within the flush. Leaf primordium production parallels leaf emergence, and maintains 4 unemerged primordia at the shoot apex. Adaptations, such as leaf scleromorphy and xylopodium formation, severely limit the growth potential of Cerrado woody species. Low growth rates under field conditions are primarily due to lower unit leaf rates (E), and are associated with slow leaf-area development.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
Um dos grandes focos da literatura atual em Gestão tem sido a identificação de caminhos para a implementação eficaz de mudanças organizacionais. Diante das dificuldades que as organizações encontram em lidar com a gestão de mudanças freqüentes e intensas, diversos autores têm se empenhado na busca pela descoberta dos fatores que afetam a possibilidade de sucesso nos processos de transição. Entre tais fatores, a comunicação tem sido apontada como aquele que mais pode contribuir ou criar dificuldades para o engajamento das pessoas ou, como alguns preferem afirmar, para a redução de suas resistências. O que se observa, entretanto, é que, em grande parte desses textos, prevalece ainda um conceito de comunicação como um mero instrumento para a divulgação das intenções institucionais e para elevar o nível de compreensão das pessoas com relação aos objetivos das mudanças projetadas. Essa visão instrumental, inspirada em um modelo balístico de comunicação (Giordano, 1998), tem sido muitas vezes acompanhada de uma crença de que as resistências humanas são o maior obstáculo a ser vencido pela organização no processo. A tese aqui defendida é a de que esta é uma visão simplista, que não dá conta da complexidade do processo de mudança nas organizações. Assim, o presente trabalho procura modificar essa forma de abordar a problemática que envolve a mudança, a comunicação organizacional e as pessoas, adotando um enfoque interpretativo (Giordano, 1998) para a análise da comunicação. O pressuposto básico é o de que a comunicação é a arena na qual as pessoas e a própria organização podem criar sentido e reconstruir as suas identidades (Ford e Ford, 1995; Giddens, 1984; Taylor, 1993; Weick, 1995), bem como os indivíduos têm a chance de tornarem-se sujeitos na mudança (Olivier, 1995). Utilizando- se a metáfora do texto e da conversação proposta por Taylor (1993), construiu-se, então, um quadro referencial sobre os diversos aspectos que caracterizam a comunicação organizacional multidirecional, para responder a seguinte questão: de que modo os aspectos relativos à comunicação afetam os processos de subjetivação, de criação de sentido e de reconstrução das identidades das pessoas que participam das mudanças organizacionais? O quadro privilegia três dimensões: os indivíduos e suas identidades; as percepções sobre o contexto; as relações com as outras identidades presentes na organização. Com base no quadro mencionado, foi realizada pesquisa em cinco importantes organizações que atuam em diferentes ramos de atividades no Brasil e que vivem momentos de intensas mudanças. A partir dos resultados obtidos por meio de entrevistas semi-abertas realizadas com 75 pessoas do conjunto dessas organizações, no período compreendido entre maio e dezembro de 2000, foi possível concluir que os processos de subjetivação, de criação de sentido e de reconstrução das identidades das pessoas, no contexto de mudanças, estão fortemente ligados, entre outros aspectos: ao nível de clareza com que os indivíduos percebem as definições quanto ao conteúdo e às prováveis implicações das mudanças; ao modo como as pessoas percebem que as mudanças afetam a identidade, o papel social, a ideologia e as chances de sucesso da organização; ao modo como os indivíduos percebem que a mudança afeta as suas identidades pessoais e sociais; à história do relacionamento entre a instituição e os indivíduos, sobretudo em termos da confiança e do respeito mútuos; ao modo e à intensidade com que a organização cria oportunidades para que as pessoas possam fazer uso da palavra; às políticas e práticas de gestão de pessoas e aos recursos disponibilizados pela organização para que os indivíduos possam desenvolver o seu perfil pessoal e profissional, de modo a que percebam ter chances de suce
One of the most important focuses, in recent Management literature, has been on searching ways for achieving an effective organizational change implementation. Facing organizations difficulties to manage very frequent and intensive changes, several authors have focused their researches on trying to identify factors which can improve transition processes possibilities of success. Among such factors, communication has been claimed as the one which is most supposed either to contribute or to create difficulties for people engagement or, as some people prefer to affirm, for reducing people resistances. However, what can be observed in such texts, is that they still privilege a concept of communication as a mere instrument for internally diffusing institutional intentions and for increasing people comprehension level about planned change objectives. Such instrumental vision, inspired in a ballistic model of communication analysis (Giordano, 1998), has been accompanied by an old belief in human resistances as the biggest obstacle to be faced by organizations in their change processes. This study supports the thesis that this is a simplistic vision, which doesn t take into account the complexity of change processes in organizations. Therefore, the study tries to modify this way of approaching the issues involving change, organizational communication and people, adopting an interpretative focus (Giordano, 1998) for communication analysis. The basic supposition is that communication is the arena in which the people and the organization can create sense and reconstruct their identities (Ford and Ford, 1995; Giddens, 1984; Taylor, 1993; Weick, 1995), as well as individuals have the chance to reconstitute themselves as subjects in change situation (Olivier, 1995). Using the text and conversation metaphor proposed by Taylor (1993), it composes, then, a referential picture about the several aspects that characterize organizational multidirectional communication, in order to answer the following question: How do the aspects related to communication affect subjectivity, sense making, and identities reconstruction processes for people which participate in organizational changes? The pictures addresses three basic dimensions: individuals and their identities; their perceptions about context; and their relationship with other identities present in organization. Based on the mentioned picture, a research was accomplished in five important organizations from different areas of activities in Brazil, which pass for moments of intense changes. From results obtained by means of semi-open interviews with 75 people that work for those organizations, accomplished between May and December 2000, it was possible to find that people`s subjectivity, sense making and identities reconstruction processes, in a context of organizational change, are, among other aspects, strongly related to: the level of clearness by which individuals access the definitions related to the content and the probable implications of change; the way people perceive that change affect organizational identity, social role, ideology, and chances of success; the way individuals perceive that change affects their personal and social identities; the historical relationship between the institution and individuals, mainly in terms of trust and mutual respect; the way and the intensity with which organization creates opportunities for people to make use of words; people management policies and practices, as well as the resources allocated by organization, in order to permit that individuals can develop their personal and professional profile, in a way they can perceive to have chances of success in the new context; the level of equality of conditions offered to the different actors in change process; the emphasis and the way organization creates opportunities so that the people can reconstruct its coexistence space and solidarity.

Abstract:
Objetivo da presente dissertação de mestrado é contribuir para a estruturação da cadeia metrológica de vazão de gás natural em alta pressão no Brasil, tomando como base experiências bem sucedidas de laboratórios nacionais de metrologia de vazão de países industrializados. O estudo fundamenta-se na padronização primária e na harmonização de valores padrões de referência para a medição de vazão. A falta de infra-estrutura metrológica para padronização primária de medição de vazão volumétrica de gás natural no Brasil constituiu-se na motivação da Petrobras para eliminar essa importante vulnerabilidade e, dessa forma, contribuir para o estabelecimento do controle metrológico no setor. A escolha do projeto de pesquisa também foi motivada pelo interesse pessoal do autor em contribuir para o tema tendo em vista sua trajetória profissional na Petrobras. A exemplo da experiência de outros países produtores de petróleo e gás natural, o trabalho se desenvolveu no contexto da regulação do setor, que criou oportunidades de investimentos e impôs desafios à metrologia brasileira. Demandas por medição fiscal de apoio a contratos de transferência de custódia exigiram a introdução de uma legislação específica e o desenvolvimento de procedimentos de avaliação da conformidade do gás natural, promissor insumo na matriz energética brasileira. O trabalho desenvolveu-se de acordo com a seguinte metodologia: (i) revisão das melhores práticas laboratoriais e dos modelos de padronização em uso por conceituados Institutos Nacionais de Metrologia de países produtores de petróleo e gás e (ii) na interpretação dos procedimentos de harmonização dos valores de referência utilizados pelos institutos nacionais de metrologia estudados. Dentre os resultados do estudo destaca-se a caracterização das cadeias de rastreabilidade para medição de vazão de gás natural em alta pressão em uso por institutos nacionais de metrologia que acordaram harmonizar seus valores de referência (PTB/Alemanha, LNE/França, NMi/Holanda). Disponibiliza-se, assim, um acervo de informações relevantes que poderá subsidiar a estruturação de um sistema de padronização primária no País. Como conclusão, o trabalho propõe a implementação de um modelo de poadronização primária para medição de vazão volumétrica de gás natural no Brasil.
The objective of this Master dissertation in metrology is to contribute for structuring the Brazilian traceability chain for flow measurement of natural gas at high pressure, based on successful experiences of national metrology laboratories of highly industrialized countries. The study takes into account the primary standardization and harmonization of reference measurement standards. The lack of an adequate infrastructure for primary standardization of volumetric flow measurement of natural gas in Brazil was a motivation motivation for Petrobras to invest substantially to overcome this important vulnerability, thus contributing to the establishment of the metrological control in the gas sector. The choice of the research project was also motivated by the author`s personal interest to contribute to the advance knowledge in an area that he has been working for many years at Petrobras. Following the experience of other oil and gas producing countries, this project was developed in the context of the regulation for the sector creating opportunities for investment on quality infrastructure, imposing challenges for the Brazilian metrology. The need to implement a measuring fiscal scheme to support contracts for custody transfer required a specific legislation and the development of procedures for conformity assessment of natural gas. The work was developed in accordance with the following methodology: (i) review of best practices and models of laboratory standardization in use by authoritative national institutes of metrology of oil and gas producing countries and (ii) interpretation of procedures for harmonization of reference values used by the National Metrology Institutes studied. The main results obtained is the characterization of the traceability chain associated with natural gas for measurement at high pressure in use by European national metrology institutes (PTB/Germany, LNE/France, NMi/Netherlands) which have agreed to harmonize their reference values. Strategic information is then made available that could subsidize the structuring of a system of primary standardization of flow measurement in Brazil. In conclusion, this work has suggested a metrological scheme for implementing a sound gas flow measurement metrology primary standardization.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the following question: what is the Christian contribution that a faith-based agency such as Christian Aid brings to development practice. It explores the integration of theological reflection with development work and advocacy in two faith-based organisations: Christian Aid (CA), a UK relief and development organisation and one of its overseas partners, Centro de Estudos e Ação Social (CEAS), a Brazilian Jesuit-based community development organisation. Such a question has been overlooked by many people working within development in the North but is often central to agencies in the South. Stemming from liberation theology, this thesis argues that the practice of these organisations is both developmental (economic, political, and cultural) and theological. It analyses two components arising out of the integration of faith and development. The first component is the methodology of action and reflection, the hermeneutic circle, that these organisations follow. The second is the content, the issues, emerging from the reflection. The first chapter analyses the method of the hermeneutic circle. This circle critically reflects in community on reality and spirituality, each in the light of the other. This thesis followed a similar method in its formation. The practice and reflection of CA and CEAS were considered through participant observation in both organisations with subsequent theological reflection. The following chapters explore the movement through the hermeneutic circle. First is the analysis of reality. CA’s acceptance of the development paradigm and globalisation is explored through its current focus: a campaign for fairer international trade. CEAS, in contrast, rejects economic development and globalisation. It focuses on the political realm encouraging the poorest communities to struggle with the local government, building their capacity as citizens. CA supporters also consider alternatives to development and globalisation, focusing on the local rather than the global and on the political as well as the economic realm.

Abstract:
The analyzes of public policies and their interface with the law are related to the effectiveness of fundamental rights. This article aims to analyze how the creation and execution of public policies aimed at the realization of fundamental social rights, especially those aimed at employment and income, as well as the judicial control of these public policies, are carried out. It seeks to identify the mechanisms and limits inherent to Public Administration to promote the realization of these rights in an equal way. The investigation of institutional designs, federative arrangements, and programs and the legal foundations and theoretical bases of public policies founded with the consolidation of the Constitutional State of Law seek to identify possible bottlenecks in the Brazilian Public Administration for the effectiveness of socialrights, such as those aimed at employment nationwide and the municipal administration, especially in Campos dos Goytacazes. The study will be based on a bibliographic research and analysis of the legislative and jurisprudential process on the subject, with data collection from the websites of the federal and municipal government of Campos, Ministério Público, Courts of Auditors, IPEA, IBGE, Federal Chamber of Deputies and well. as the Federal Supreme Court (STF). With the systematization of theoretical references on public policies and fundamental rights, a proposal to identify the articulation and dialogue between the powers in the area of realization of specific social rights related to work and income, and the elaboration of an article summarizing the results achieved by the analysis of effectiveness with the analysis of the importance of the effectiveness of fundamental rights with the identification and systematization of the main institutional obstacles to their implementation
