Full textAbstract:
The representation of Revolution and revolutionaries develops as one of the main themes in Russian literary texts of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It would not be an overstatement to say that most active writers during this time referred to these themes in their works. These themes developed in consort with the historical and political developments occurring within the country. The literature of the twentieth century led to a culmination in the understanding of this complex topic. This thesis will present an analysis of several types of Revolutionary characters and their concepts of what Revolution is and should be. It will present an overview of Revolution's origin and development as a background of early twentieth century Russian literary works. The close reading of the selected twentieth century works will be discussed within the body of this thesis. In particular we will review Alexander Blok's poem The Twelve, Isaac Babel's collection of stories Red Cavalry, Vladimir Zazubrin's The Chip: A Story about a Chip and About Her, and Boris Savinkov's Pale Horse.

CHEK1 inhibitors are currently in clinical trials for their ability to abrogate chemotherapy-induced CHEK1 activation and S phase arrest resulting in cancer cell apoptosis. No studies have yet identified ovarian cancers that could benefit from CHEK1-targeting therapy. I hypothesised that knowledge of CHEK1 and CHEK2 signalling in the DNA damage response can assist in identifying potential biomarkers for platinum responsiveness and CHEK-targeting therapy in ovarian cancer. In vitro studies investigated the CHEK1/2 inhibitor AZD7762 (AZD) and cisplatin (CP) in same patient-derived platinum-sensitive/resistant high-grade serous ovarian cancer cell lines (PEO1/PEO4 and PEO14/PEO23). Cytotoxicity assays confirmed higher CP IC50’s for PEO4 and PEO23 relative to PEO1 and PEO14 cell lines, respectively. AZD was more toxic to PEO1 cells and an additive effect of AZD with CP relative to CP alone was seen. A nontoxic AZD treatment to PEO4 cells sensitised the cells to CP when applied in combination. PEO14 and PEO23 cells had similar cytotoxicity profiles for combination treatments. BRDU DNA synthesis assays and cell cycle analysis revealed increased BRDU incorporation and accumulation in S phase when all cell lines were treated with CP. AZD treatment had a similar effect in PEO14 and PEO23 cells and increased the sub-G1 population, a marker of apoptotic DNA fragmentation, relative to control. Drug combination had no major effect on cell cycle distributions of both PEO14 and PEO23 cells relative to single agents but resulted in BRDU incorporation levels below CP and control levels for PEO14 cells. In PEO1 and PEO4 cells, AZD did not affect the cell cycle or DNA synthesis levels relative to control. Drug combination did not alter the cell cycle relative to CP treatment for PEO1 cells but decreased S phase and increased G2/M and sub-G1 populations in PEO4 cells. This was coupled with a decrease of CP-induced BRDU levels in PEO4 control levels. Apoptotic PARP cleavage/total PARP occurred early in CP treated PEO1 and PEO14 cells. A surrogate CHEK1/2 activity marker, p-CDC2 (Y15), decreased in all lines treated with AZD relative to control. Within PEO1 and PEO4 cells, greatest PARP cleavage was observed with combination treatment and coincided with high p-H2AX (S139), a DNA damage marker. p-CHEK1 (S317) and p-CHEK2 (T68), both ATR and ATM phosphorylation sites during DNA damage, increased for lone drug treatment and, to a greater extent, the combination drug treatments. PARP cleavage occurs across all treatments in PEO1 cells while it only occurs in the combination treatment for PEO4 cells. The latter coincides with a decrease in p-CHEK1 (S296) a CHEK1 autophosphorylation site, p-TP53 (S15), and p-BRCA1 (S1524), a homologous recombination marker, relative to the CP treated sample. In PEO14 and PEO23 cells, lone AZD and combination treatments had similar cleaved PARP/total PARP levels compared to the PEO14 CP treated cells. This was coupled with increased p-H2AX (S139), decreased CHEK1, and decreased CHEK2 autophosphorylation p-CHEK2 (S516). A human ovarian cancer xenograft model identified increases in p-H2AX (S139), CHEK1, p-CHEK1 (S317), p-CHEK2 (T68), and p-BRCA1 (S1524) in the carboplatin responsive cancers. In the paired pre- and post-chemotherapy human ovarian cancer samples, p-CHEK1 (S317) was elevated in post-chemotherapy responsive samples. In the first cohort, high p-CHEK1 (S317) was an independent poor overall survival biomarker and correlated with high p-H2AX (S139), MYC, p-CHEK1 (S296), p-CHEK2 (T68), p-CHEK2 (S516), and p-TP53 (S15). p-CHEK1 (S317) was associated with poor overall survival in serous ovarian cancers within the second pre-treatment ovarian cancer cohort. In conclusion, AZD can induce apoptosis in CP resistant cancer cells by synergising with CP to abrogate the S phase checkpoint, increase DNA damage, and inhibit CHEK1, and BRCA1 function. As a single agent, AZD can induce apoptosis by decreasing CHEK1 levels and CHEK2 activity. p- CHEK1 (S317) is a platinum responsive / poor prognostic biomarker.

Full textAbstract:
Ovarian cancer is the deadliest gynecological malignancy affecting women. Diagnosis often occurs late due to non-specific symptoms, but if detected early, there is excellent chance for survival. One of the most important risk factors is family history. Up to 24% of cases are due to inherited loss-of-function mutations in genes involved in the DNA damage response. The theory underlying hereditary cancers is Knudson's two-hit theory of cancer causation, where two hits are necessary for cancer to occur in an individual: one in the germline and one in the tissue. The genes, CHEK1 and CHEK2, are modulators of the DNA damage response, and could be susceptible to a first hit. There is little to no evidence about whether loss-of-function mutations in either of these two genes can lead to ovarian cancer. Using a cohort of 587 ovarian cancer cases and 557 controls, this study sought to determine if CHEK1 and CHEK2 are associated with ovarian cancer. Applying Fisher's exact test to compare mutation rates and the t test to compare age at time of diagnosis, the alternative hypothesis about an association between disease and mutations in CHEK1 and CHEK2 was rejected, but an association between younger age at diagnosis in cases and mutations in either gene was confirmed. The association between age and mutations in either of these genes suggests that there is some influence of age on disease, but a clear association between development of disease and mutations cannot yet be established. This research has implications for social change: By recognizing the need to test earlier in women with mutations in CHEK1 and/or CHEK2, they will have a higher chance of survival and better health outcomes, not only for ovarian cancer but for related cancers as well.

O Diário escrito por Isaak Bábel, durante sua participação na guerra russo-polonesa de 1920, serviu de base para a sua obra mais importante Konármia ou O Exército de Cavalaria. A existência desse material permite entrever os bastidores da técnica criativa de um dos grandes mestres do conto russo do século XX, conforme foi visto na análise de alguns trechos do Diário, comparados com os de Konármia. No entanto, o Diário de 1920, de per si, não deixa de representar, hoje, uma obra com marcantes características literárias. Assim, o nosso objetivo foi, inicialmente, fazer uma tradução direta do Diário de Bábel, do russo para o português. A seguir, ao lado de sua breve biografia, uma análise e uma discussão de sua maneira de construir o que hoje é considerada uma obra literária.The Diary written by Isaak Babel, during his participation in the Russian-Polish war of 1920, was the basis for his most important work Konarmia also called The Red Cavalry. The existence of this material allows us to foresee the backstage of the creative technique of one of the great Russian short story masters of the XX century, as we saw analysing some parts of the Diary and comparing them to the short stories of Konarmia. However, the 1920 Diary, is considered today by itself a literary work, with relevant artistic characteristics. Therefore, our goal was initially the direct translation of the Diary from Russian into Portuguese. Afterwords, beside his short biography, an analysis and discussion of his method of constructing the Diary as a literary piece.

Full textAbstract:
Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Engenharia do Ambiente, perfil de Gestão e Sistemas AmbientaisNa presente dissertação desenvolveu-se um trabalho de investigação comparando diferentes metodologias de elaboração de cartografia de risco de cheia, para a cidade de Tavira, uma área propensa a cheia. Devido ao facto de se encontrar segundo o LNEC, numa zona de risco de cheia com ponto crítico no rio Gilão, que passa pela cidade de Tavira, desenvolveu-se as cartas de risco de cheia para a zona, recorrendo a ferramentas de detecção remota e sistema de informação geográfica (SIG). A análise do risco de cheia implica a avaliação dos factores que nele intervém, ou seja, o perigo de cheia e a vulnerabilidade face a esse fenómeno. Devem, portanto, ser analisadas as características físicas do meio aquático, da planície de cheia e os habitats associados e as características sócioeconómicas da ocupação da planície de cheia. A análise da tipologia das cheias envolve, em primeiro lugar, a distinção da origem da cheia (fluvial ou marítima) e posteriormente, a consideração de quatro características fundamentais: a dimensão ou área da bacia hidrográfica; tipo de ocorrência meteorológica; tipo de vale que é inundável; factores sócio-económicos (ICN, 2002). A cartografia de risco procura identificar e localizar convenientemente os perigos que afectam o território, permitindo proceder ao adequado enquadramento das dinâmicas naturais e tecnológicas com tradução territorial e que hoje podem ser integradas em múltiplos conjuntos de dados espaciais nos SIG. A elaboração de cartografia de risco de cheia foi aplicada à freguesia de Santa Maria (cidade de Tavira). Esta análise é relevante para a elaboração do Plano de Emergência de Cheias para o concelho de Tavira, permitindo o desenvolvimento de medidas de planeamento de emergência e de ordenamento do território, de forma a minimizar o risco para as populações, bens e ambiente. Depois de realizada a identificação e caracterização dos riscos e localizadas as áreas expostas a eventos extremos, sobretudo onde podem manifestar-se com gravidade elevada, é possível definir as melhores estratégias de resposta a catástrofes ou acidentes graves, testar a eficácia dos meios e recursos existentes, perceber os constrangimentos físicos e funcionais à mobilidade e encontrar alternativas de gestão integrada de elevada importância para a elaboração de carta de zonas inundáveis. A realização de cartografia de risco de cheia foi desenvolvida a partir da junção da carta de probabilidade de ocorrência de cheia para períodos de retorno de 10 e 100 anos com a carta de vulnerabilidade que foi contabilizada a partir de pesos diferentes conforme o grau de importância no território. Assim, desenvolveram-se duas cartas de classe de probabilidade de ocorrência de risco de cheia e duas cartas de classe de vulnerabilidade de risco de cheia. Foram aplicadas duas metodologias distintas para a elaboração das classes de probabilidade: a metodologia da Universidade do Algarve, denominada UA e a metodologia desenvolvida com a equipa do Comando Nacional de Operações de Socorro (CNOS), da Autoridade Nacional de Protecção civil, denominada ANPCP e foram aplicadas duas metodologias distintas para a classe de vulnerabilidade: a metodologia UA e a metodologia ANPCV. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que a carta de classe de probabilidade de ocorrência de cheia é importante na construção da carta de risco de cheia, pois delimita a área atingida pela cheia para os períodos de retorno de 10 e 100 anos, sendo de elevada importância para a carta de risco de cheia. A metodologia ANPCP face à metodologia UA utiliza a variável a altura de cheia associada ao período de retorno. As cartas de classe de vulnerabilidade utilizadas divergem devido ao número de indicadores utilizados e à importância dada para cada um deles. Assim, concluí-se que a escolha das cartas de classe de probabilidade e vulnerabilidade são determinantes para a construção da carta de classe de risco de cheia. A carta de risco de cheia que melhor se adequa ao caso de estudo é a que resulta da metodologia ANPCR3.

Este trabalho procura mostrar aspectos de dois fenômenos contemporâneos que se entrecruzam e que convergem em Israel: a disseminação e importância das séries televisivas e a visibilidade adquirida pela ortodoxia judaica na sociedade israelenses a partir dos anos 1990. Dessa maneira, a partir da análise de uma série produzida para a televisão israelense, Shtisel, busca-se compreender quais são os mecanismos que operam para que audiências das mais diversas, espalhadas pelo mundo, possam se identificar com um grupo tão específico como a ortodoxia judaica. No decorrer do trabalho, para que também se possa entender o fenômeno da visibilidade da ortodoxia nas telas, analisa-se a expansão de um cinema de comunidade, como aqueles produzidos por e para judeus ortodoxos.This work seeks to show aspects of two contemporary and interwoven phenomena: the dissemination and importance of television series and the visibility acquired by Jewish orthodoxy in Israeli society from the 1990s. Thus, from the analysis of a series produced for the Israeli television, Shtisel, the work seeks to understand what are the mechanisms that operate so that audiences of the most diverse, scattered around the world, can identify themselves with a group as specific as Jewish orthodoxy. In the course of the work, in order to understand this phenomenon of the visibility of orthodoxy on the screen, we analyze the expansion of a community cinema, such as those produced by and for Jewish Orthodoxy.

Full textAbstract:
CheA is a multi-domain histidine kinase believed to be a central component of all bacterial and archaeal chemosensory arrays. The best studied CheA proteins are those of Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Thermotoga maritima. The P4 catalytic domain of CheA is of particular interest due to its role in ATP binding and auto-phosphorylation of the substrate His residue on the P1 substrate domain, a process which involves Mg 2+ in the P4 domain ATP-binding pocket. CheA auto-phosphorylation reaction has also long been known to be sensitive to the monovalent cation composition of the reaction buffer. Recent studies in GHKL superfamily members MutL (from E coli) and BCK (from Rattus norvegicus) demonstrated improved activity in the presence of monovalent K +. Here experimental and computational analyses assess the effect of monovalent cations on the activity of Salmonella typhimurium CheA, and generate a model for a putative monovalent cation binding pocket. The findings show that CheA prefers the physiological K+ ion over the other monovalent cations tested, indicating the site is specific and tuned to possess the appropriate K+ affinity for the cytoplasmic environment.

Full textAbstract:
Histidine kinase CheA is central to signaling in bacterial chemotaxis. This kinase is responsible for the phosphorylation of two response regulators, CheY and CheB. CheY controls flagellar rotation and thus motility. CheB is crucial for sensory adaptation. CheA is dramatically activated, up to 1000-fold, and put under the control of chemoreceptors by formation of the signaling complex. As measured by phosphorylation of CheY, this control modulates the activity of CheA in a range as wide as two orders of magnitude. This change in the activity of CheA is the essence of chemotactic signaling. However, the enzymatic properties altered by kinase incorporation into signaling complexes, chemoreceptor ligand binding or receptor adaptational modification are largely undefined. This dissertation describes the kinetic analysis of kinase CheA. Data are fit to the Michaelis-Menten equation, from which important parameters KM and kcat are obtained. Based on these parameters for CheA at different signaling conditions, important observations and conclusions are made to contribute to better understanding of the control of the activity of kinase CheA, thus the bacterial chemotaxis signaling system.

Discussions about the migration of Brazilians to several countries in America and Europe are frequent, however, few researches have dealt with the migration of Brazilians to China. For this reason, this thesis aims to analyze the migration history of fifteen Brazilian women living in Beijing and use it to represent the processes of several Brazilian women who have migrated to the People's Republic of China. At first, the goal of this research was to study the Brazilian community as a whole, but women have a much more significant role in building Brazilian identity since they run the main organization that congregates Brazilians in Beijing (Brapeq); women also organize events such as Beijing's Brazil Film Festival, Doc Brazil Festival and Brazil-China Book Club. Thus, we have carried out narrative interviews with fifteen women of different ages, social classes and lifestyles, who had different migration histories. The interviews, done at cafes, restaurants, the street, or the interviewee's home, aimed to trace these women's background in order to comprehend how each migration history contributes to building a different Brazilian identity. Based on these women's accounts, we intended to study the ways Brazilians socialize and associate, to understand Brapeq's role in integrating these people and disseminating Brazilian culture, as well as to analyze how Brazilian identity is built and rebuilt through the social fabric of Brazilians who have migrated.
As discussões sobre a migração brasileira para diversos países receptores na América e na Europa são bastante frequentes. Poucas pesquisas, porém, se debruçaram sobre a migração brasileira para a China. Por esta razão, esta tese tem como intuito analisar as trajetórias migratórias de quinze brasileiras para Pequim, e utilizá-las como metonímia para a migração de diversas brasileiras para a capital da República Popular da China. O objetivo inicial da pesquisa era estudar a comunidade brasileira como um todo, mas as mulheres representam um papel muito mais significativo na reconstrução da identidade brasileira, na medida em que são elas que estão à frente da principal organização representante dos brasileiros (O Brapeq, Brasileiros em Pequim), e são as responsáveis por eventos como Festival de Cinema Brasileiro de Pequim, Festival Doc. Brazil e Clube do livro Brasil-China. Para tanto, realizamos entrevistas narrativas com quinze mulheres de distintas faixas etárias, classes sociais, estilos de vida e que também apresentavam diferentes experiências de migração. Por meio das entrevistas narrativas, realizadas em cafés, restaurantes, ou na casa das entrevistadas, e das entrevistas em trânsito, buscamos narrar a história de vida dessas mulheres para compreender como cada trajetória migratória conduz a uma construção diferente do que é a identidade brasileira. Com base nos relatos de vida dessas mulheres, tencionamos estudar as formas de sociabilidade e de associação entre os brasileiros, assim como observar o papel do Brapeq na integração destes e na difusão da cultura brasileira e, por fim, analisar como a identidade brasileira é constituída e reconstituída por meio das relações tecidas na comunidade brasileira em circunstância de migração.

Full textAbstract:
Mestrado em Engenharia do AmbienteO crescimento populacional, aliado ao êxodo rural, tem conduzido à expansão das cidades em áreas contestadas. Um dos riscos inerentes à expansão urbana é o risco de inundação, potenciado pela construção desregrada junto a corpos de água, bem como, pela impermeabilização dos solos que conduz, nomeadamente, à alteração dos fluxos naturais. Por outro lado, a ocorrência de fenómenos intensos de precipitação é cada vez mais frequente, pelo que é importante perceber de que forma as cidades se podem adaptar de modo a reduzir o risco ou pelo menos minimizar os seus danos. O objetivo da presente dissertação é avaliar o benefício da infraestrutura verde/azul no controlo das cheias na cidade de Aveiro. Para tal procedeu-se à análise do custo de cheia para esta cidade. Mostrou-se que o custo total para a estrutura e recheio do edificado podem variar entre um mínimo de 9,72 e 0,33 e um máximo de 57,14 e 19,01 milhões de euros, respetivamente. A análise da infraestrutura verde/azul no controlo de cheia mostra que há benefícios na utilização destes espaços (entre 9,7 e 16,2 para a estrutura e 0,33 e 2,92 milhões de euros para o recheio). O benefício apresenta valores reduzidos, em alguns casos, dado os volumes de inundação serem muito elevados e as áreas verdes/azuis com capacidade de retenção reduzidas. Em termos económicos, a aposta na minimização dos danos de eventos mais frequentes resulta em ganhos superiores para o Município. Sugere-se ainda um estudo mais aprofundado de todas as estruturas com capacidade de retenção, assim como, a adoção de outros tipos de soluções de controlo de cheia, incluindo a utilização de pavimentos permeáveis, criação de espaços verdes/azuis nas zonas mais elevadas da cidade e a inibição da construção em áreas adjacentes a cursos de água.
Population growth, coupled with rural exodus has been leading to urban expansion in contested areas. One of the inherent risks of urban sprawl is the risk of flooding, boosted by unregulated building adjacent to water bodies, as well as by soil impermeabilization which leads, in particular, the alteration of natural flow streams. Moreover, the occurrence of intense precipitation phenomena is increasingly common, so it is important to understand how cities can adapt to reduce the risk or at least minimize their damage. The main goal of this thesis is to evaluate the benefit of green/blue infrastructure in flood control in the city of Aveiro. Therefore, an analysis on the flood costs in Aveiro was conducted. It has been shown that the total flood costs for built up areas can vary between a minimum of 9.72 and 0.33 and a maximum of 57.14 and 19.01 million euros, for structure and content respectively. The analysis of green/blue infrastructure in flood control shows that there are benefits in using these spaces (between 9.7 and 16.2 for the structure and 0.3 and 2.9 million euros for the content. However, the overall benefits of using these spaces are low, since in some cases the volumes of flooding are very high and the green/blue areas have reduced retention capacity. In economic terms, the focus on minimizing damage from more frequent events results in higher earnings for the city. Further studies of all structures with water retention capacity are needed as well as the adoption of other types of flood control solutions, such as the use of permeable pavements, creation/rehabilitation of green/blue spaces in the higher areas of the city and ban construction adjacent to waterways areas.

The Amazon region is comprised of a variety of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, being inhabited by human societies. In this variety of environments are aquatic ecosystems such as rivers, lakes and streams. They can also be found terrestrial ecosystems such as upland forests, occupying no wetlands and transition environment forest between the lacustrine fluvial plains and land, making flood lands, as in the environment of the Great Lake system in the Municipality Manacapuru - Amazonas, inhabited by farmers. To understand the survival of these inhabitants the study aimed to analyze the agro-ecosystem landscapes food production from farm families. It was adopted in the survey the theoretical approach of the dialectic of systemic complexity, and to survey the empirical data, we used the case study combining various techniques: field diary, interviews, photographs and mental map. The place described by family farmers demonstrates the knowledge which they had acquired in their courses in aquatic and terrestrial environments. With the appropriation of common environmental goods they reproduce the food-producing landscapes, featuring the agro-ecosystem. In different agroecosystems units is the production of various foods, used by farming families. The operation of the production units is proposed by the farmers themselves, as they are autonomous and have the power of decision, so they decide how all activities should be performed, establishing what should be produced and how it should be produced. From these factors it can be concluded that the production of food is diverse and caters to feed demand from families, being the result of farmer knowledge to appropriate the various existing environmental goods in the environmental system, as well as in adapting to the conditions set in periods of flood and drought water.
A região amazônica é compreendida por uma diversidade de ecossistemas aquáticos e terrestres, sendo habitada por sociedades humanas. Nessa variedade de ambientes estão os ecossistemas aquáticos como rios, lagos e igarapés. Também podem ser encontrados os ecossistemas terrestres como as florestas de terra firme, ocupando áreas não inundáveis e a floresta de ambiente de transição entre as planícies flúvio lacustres e a terra firme, compondo terras inundáveis, como ocorre no sistema ambiental do Lago Grande, no Município de Manacapuru – Amazonas, habitado por agricultores familiares. Para compreender a sobrevivência destes habitantes o estudo teve como objetivo analisar nas paisagens do agroecossistema a produção de alimentos das famílias agricultoras. Foi adotada na pesquisa a abordagem teórica da dialética da complexidade sistêmica e, para o levantamento dos dados empíricos, utilizou-se o estudo de caso, combinando várias técnicas: diário de campo, entrevista, fotografias e mapa mental. O lugar descrito pelos agricultores familiares demonstra o conhecimento por estes adquiridos em seus percursos nos ambientes aquático e terrestre. Com a apropriação dos bens comuns ambientais estes reproduzem as paisagens produtoras de alimentos, caracterizando o agroecossistema. Nas diferentes unidades agroecossistêmicas ocorre a produção de diversos alimentos, utilizados pelas famílias agricultoras. O funcionamento das unidades de produção é proposto pelos próprios agricultores, pois são autônomos e possuem o poder de decisão, desta forma estes decidem como devem ser executadas todas as atividades, estabelecendo o que deve ser produzido e como deve ser produzido. A partir desses fatores é possível concluir que a produção de alimentos é diversificada e atende a demanda alimentar das famílias, sendo resultante do conhecimento do agricultor em apropriar-se dos diferentes bens ambientais existentes no sistema ambiental, como também em adaptarem-se as condições apresentadas nos períodos de cheia e seca das águas.

Full textAbstract:
O emprego de uma estrutura mista de aço – concreto (laje em concreto e vigas em perfis de aço) representa a priori uma solução mais eficiente para estruturas de pontes do que a consideração de uma estrutura toda em concreto ou toda em aço. No entanto para que isto ocorra na prática é necessário um dimensionamento criterioso desta estrutura, o que deve ser feito tendo como apoio softwares de simulação numérica. No CEMACOM tem sido desenvolvidos vários trabalhos nesse tema, os quais resultaram num código computacional com capacidade para simular vigas mistas submetidas a cargas de curta duração ou cargas de longa duração. Em contraponto, nesse trabalho a proposta é customizar um software comercial de elementos finitos (ANSYS) para realizar as mesmas tarefas. Depois do modelo construído tem se vantagens pois se dispõe da plataforma do ANSYS que permite analisar vários problemas associados ao assunto. Fez-se uma proposta de modelo numérico para se analisar vigas mistas no ANSYS. Tendo como ponto de partida os trabalhos de Lazzari (2015) e Lazzari et al. (2016) para a implementação do comportamento do concreto, fez-se algumas implementações numa rotina tipo usermat para fazer análises de cargas de curta duração. Os efeitos de longa duração, fluência e retração, foram implementados na rotina usermat tendo como base os trabalhos de Dias (2013) e Moreno (2016). O código customizado foi comparado contra resultados experimentais e numéricos que demonstraram o adequado funcionamento do mesmo. Finalmente o ANSYS customizado foi aplicado para modelar uma estrutura de ponte que havia sido previamente calculada por Schmitz (2014) empregando procedimentos de projeto normalizados. Os resultados obtidos são comparados contra o processo normalizado e são apresentadas as vantagens deste processo.The use of composite steel and concrete structures (concrete deck and steel profile beams) represents a priori a more efficient solution for bridges structure than the consideration of a whole structure with concrete or whole with steel. However for this to occur in practice it is necessary a consistent design of this structure, and this should be done with the support of softwares of numerical simulations. In CEMACOM have been developed many works in this theme, which resulted on a computational code with the capacity for simulate composite beams submitted to loads with short duration or loads with long duration. In counterpoint, in this work the proposal was to customize a commercial software of finite elements (ANSYS) to do the same tasks. After the construction of the model it have advantages because it is able to use the ANSYS platform, which permit to analyze various problems associated with this subject. It was done a numerical model for analysis of composite beams in ANSYS. Considering as the start point the works of Lazzari (2015) and Lazzari et al. (2016) for the implementation of concrete behavior, some implementations were done in a routine of the type usermat to make analysis with loads with short duration. The effects of long duration, creep and shrinkage, were implemented on the usermat routine considering the jobs of Dias (2013) and Moreno (2016). The customized code was compared with experimental and numerical results that demonstrated a proper functioning. Finally, the customized ANSYS was applied to modeling a bridge structure, which was previously designed in Schmitz (2014) using standard proceedings. The obtained results are compared with the standard procedure and it is presented the advantages of this more complex proceeding.

Full textAbstract:
The abundance of good reservoir and source rocks offshore Cabinda, Angola, makes the area an attractive and successful hydrocarbon province. Block 0, offshore Cabinda, lies in the Lower Congo basin along the western coast of Africa. The stratigraphy of Block 0 consists of two major oil-rich sequences: the rift sequence (primarily lacustrine) and the post-rift sequence (primarily marine). These are separated by a thick section of evaporites, and thus are referred to as the pre-salt sequence and post-salt sequence, respectively. The Chela Formation, mid-Aptian in age, was deposited before the salt. It consists of sandstones and conglomerates locally interbedded with carbonates. It is the youngest unit of the pre-salt sequence. The top of the Chela Formation is gradational into the salt, whereas the base of the Chela unconformably overlies older pre-salt units. The regional pre-Chela unconformity corresponds to the "break up unconformity" developed as a direct response of Gondwanaland rifting that resulted in the opening of the South Atlantic Ocean and culminated with the separation of the South American and African continents. In this context, the Chela Formation represents an early post-rift transgressive unit that spans the transition from continental to marine conditions. The thickness of the Chela Formation in Block O is variable. This unit thickens westward from O to 305 m. Environments of deposition within the Chela Formation range from coastal non-marine to shallow-marine environments. The Chela Formation onshore Cabinda is a fining-upward sequence with coarse sandstone and conglomerate in the base grading to finer sandstone interbedded with mudstone. Offshore, the unit is represented by a sequence of very-fine to fine-grained sandstone, grading to siltstone, and locally interbedded with dolomitic carbonates. Sediment in the Chela Formation has a continental-block provenance, evidence that Chela detritus was supplied from an external granitic source on the southern African continent. Although no commercial accumulations of hydrocarbons have been found offshore in the Chela sandstones to date, the unit represents a potential reservoir because of hydrocarbons log porosities between 15 and 30 porosity units, the presence of hydrocarbon shows onshore, and an excellent overlying seal of thick salt.

The purpose of this study was to determinate the differences and similarities in the use of Internet and New Media between Czech Republic and Spain. This thesis defined the Internet user's profile and the usage of the Internet in both nations. It was also analyzed the social software Facebook, Tuenti (Spain) and Lidé (Czech Republic); the online encyclopedia Wikipedia and the server YouTube (and its closest competitor in each country). The information was mainly gathered from Internet. Then it was analyzed and compared. The author used her personal experience and knowledge of both cultures for the interpretation of the results. This work showed that there is not a big difference in the usage of Internet and New Media between these countries. For example, the difference in the Internet usage is not bigger than 5%. It also showed that Czech Republic has experienced the biggest growth in the area, even though Spain has more users. Both countries showed similar interest in web pages such as Facebook, Google and YouTube. Additionally, it demonstrated that the Spanish market is reacting better to the new opportunities offered by the social software. For this reason, they had created their own -- called Tuenti -- which is the main competition of Facebook in this country. On the other hand, Czech Republic does not have a website that counts with all the services offered by Facebook, which can explain the growth on the numbers of Czech users the last year. Wikipedia has versions available on the native languages of both countries. It is widely used, not only by the students who use it as a source for their paper work, but also in areas like marketing and journalism. YouTube is one of the most popular servers in these nations. They have their local video servers, but none of them have the same importance as YouTube. The author hopes this work will be a base for future investigators who will be interested on the comparison of these countries on the new technologies.

As zonas ribeirinhas constituem uma potencialidade de desenvolvimento das sociedades. Porém, este desenvolvimento não deve ser desmesurado e efectuado sem qualquer preocupação quanto aos riscos que estas zonas podem trazer, como o risco de cheia. Tendo em consideração as funções ambientais, humanas e a interacção entre ambas nas zonas ribeirinhas, há que conhecer de modo específico as causas e as consequências dos riscos de cheia a que estas zonas estão sujeitas. De modo a reduzir a vulnerabilidade das pessoas e bens ao risco de cheia, importa a promoção de um planeamento urbano sustentável correcto com base em factores e parâmetros de sustentabilidade que possam ser aplicáveis. Assim sendo, desenvolveu-se um Modelo de Avaliação de Implementação do Plano Director Municipal de zonas com risco de cheia, com uma proposta de parâmetros a observar nas acções de planeamento nestas zonas inundáveis. Posteriormente o modelo de avaliação desenvolvido com os respectivos parâmetros foi aplicado ao município de Vila Franca de Xira, por ser uma zona ribeirinha com risco de cheia. Os resultados desta aplicação foram obtidos através de um Modelo Digital de Terreno, para facilitar a análise de vulnerabilidade da área em estudo ao fenómeno simulado.

The transmembrane serine receptor Tsr associates with a coupling protein, CheW,
and a histidine kinase, CheA, to form a ternary complex that regulates the activity of
CheA. CheA activity is inhibited by binding of L-serine to Tsr. This work aims to
characterize the ligand-binding properties of Tsr and the inhibitory effect of L-serine on
CheA activity. The periplasmic domain of Tsr (pTsr) was purified and characterized.
Analytical gel filtration and analytical ultracentrifugation indicated that binding of Lserine
promotes dimerization. The binding stoichiometry and dissociation constant for
binding of L-serine to pTsr were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy. As protein
concentration decreased, the dissociation constant increased. A working model was
proposed to account for the interactions between L-serine and pTsr. The activity of
CheA in a ternary complex with full-length Tsr and CheW was analyzed by measuring
the production of [32P]-phospho-CheY. (Phospho-CheY is the product of CheA catalysis.)
The results revealed that binding of L-serine decreased CheA activity without changing
its affinity for ATP. These findings suggest that the allosteric effect of L-serine on CheA activity might occur through V-type inhibition. Optimization of an alternative,
continuous, non-radioactive assay for CheA is underway.

Full textAbstract:
We aimed to assess whether the breast-cancer intermediate-risk genes CHEK2, ATM ant TP53 were subject to differential allelic expression (DAE) in lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from high-risk breast cancer patients for whom no mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 had been identified.We implemented an assay based on high-resolution melting curve analysis (HRM) of single labeled fluorescent probes to detect allelic expression imbalance. The method relies on the distinction of the two alleles of an exonic marker SNP in heterozygous individuals with a fluorescent signal correlated to the relative abundance of each transcript. We developed an analysis tool for HRM data processing, specifically dedicated to DAE assessment. In our series, we found evidence for DAE for CHEK2, in carriers of the truncating mutation 1100delC. When combining mutation-screening data and assessment of DAE, we did not identify functional regulatory variant located in cis of the studied genes that would lead to DAE, in the transcriptional regulatory milieu of freely proliferating LCLs. Our results support that HRM is a method with high sensitivity and accuracy that can be used for DAE assessment. This approach can be applied to study breast and blood tissue samples. The latter would be of great interest for high-throughput mutation screening projects aiming to identify dysfunctional regulatory variants in candidate genes.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MTh)--Stellenbosch University, 2015.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study concerns the possibility of the Nkhoma Synod C.C.A.P. formulating its own ecotheological views as a way toward motivating its members to participate in addressing the ecological crisis in the Malawi. First the major issues in the study are introduced, namely what the ecological crisis is and what its causes and consequences are, globally as well as in Malawi. The other issue is whether the Nkhoma Synod may learn from existing ecotheological reflections, specifically those of Ernst M. Conradie and whether, in the process, elements of African culture (specifically that of the Chewa, who form the majority of the constituents of the Synod) that resonate with Conradie’s work may be taken into account to make the Synod’s ecological message more understandable and effective among its members. With regard to the causes of the ecological crisis, natural causes are identified, but it is shown that the current crisis is particularly the result of human action. Malawi, a very poor country, is shown to already be negatively affected by the crisis in different ways and on almost all levels of society. The reflection on the ecotheological thought of Ernst Conradie takes as point of departure his understanding of the term “church” as a locus of ecotheological reflection and action. Conradie’s theological understanding of the causes and consequences of the ecological crisis is explained and special attention is given to the most recent emphasis in his work, namely his understanding of the culture of consumerism as the root cause of the ecological crisis and what the theological implications and solutions to this may be. With a view to ascertain what Chewa culture may contribute to efforts by the Nkhoma Synod to formulate ecotheological principles for its members, the meaning and characteristics of culture are discussed as well as the important issue of what the relationship between it (culture) and theology/faith may be. Different elements of Chewa culture are then identified and explained, especially ecological sensitive elements in it. Finally these elements are brought into conversation with Conradie’s thought in an attempt to find ways in which the ecological sensitivities in Chewa culture may strengthen efforts by the Synod to motivate its members towards ecological responsibility and action on the basis of their faith.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die vraag wat staan teen die agtergrond van hierdie studie is die wenslikheid en moontlikheid al dan nie van die formulering van eie ekoteologiese insigte deur die Nkhoma Sinode C.C.A.P. in Malawi in die lig van die ekologiese krisis wereldwyd en in Malawi. Die kwessie wat eerste bespreek word is wat die ekologiese krisis is en wat die oorsake en gevolge daarvan is. ’n Ander kwessie is of die Nkhoma Sinode kan leer by bestaande ekoteologiese sienings, spesifiek die van Ernst M. Conradie en of dit, in die proses, elemente van Afrika-kultuur (spesifiek dié van die Chewa, wat die meerderheid van die Sinode se lede uitmaak) wat resoneer met Conradie se insigte in ag kan neem ten eiende ’n eie effektiewe en verstaanbare ekologiese boodskap te formuleer. Met betrekking tot die oorsake van die ekologiese krisis, word beide natuurlike en mensgemaakte oorsake uitgewys. Malawi, ’n baie arm land, word reeds negatief geraak deur die krisis op verskillende wyses en op bykans alle vlakke van die samelewing. Die bespreking van die ekoteologiese insigte van Conradie neem as vertrekpunt sy verstaan van die term “kerk” as locus van ekoteologiese refleksie en aksie. Conradie se verstaan van die teologiese oorsake en gevolge van die ekologiese krisis word verduidelik en aandag word veral gegee aan die mees onlangse klem in sy werk, naamlik sy verstaan van verbruikerskultuur as die kernoorsaak van die ekologiese krisis en wat die teologiese implikasies daarvan mag wees. Ten einde vas te stel hoe Chewa-kultuur mag bydra tot die Nkhoma Sinode se pogings om ’n eie ekoteologie te formuleer, word die betekenis en eienskappe van kultuur bespreek asook die belangrike kwessie van die verhouding tussen kultuur en toeologie/geloof. Verskillende elemente in Chewa-kultuur word dan geidentifiseer, veral mbt die eko logiessensitiewe aard daarvan. Uiteindelik word hierdie elemente in gesprek gebring met Conradie se insigte in ’n poging om maniere te vind waarin die ekologies-sensitiewe elemente in Chewakultuur mag bydra tot die pogings van die Nkhoma Sinode om die lede daarvan te lei tot groter ekologiese verantwoordelikheid en aksie gegrond op hul geloof.

This dissertation consists in a case study that aims to make a diagnosis of practices that include the Environmental Education (EE) in Barra do Superagui. In order to get elements to discuss the process of EE in Conservation Units (CU), it is considered the peculiar social dynamic of the fishermen village as a way to assess the needs and educational proposals adopted at the local community in the context of social valorization and the historical, cultural and natural conservation of the Superagui National Park. Thus, the research is proposed based on the case study as a methodological procedure, whereas the observation is the main resource of investigation. It supported this methodological procedure in order to examine how the EE activities reflect and/or transform the relationship between individuals of the Barra do Superagui community. The results obtained from this study stand out through the reports of the island residents, during the conversations and interviews made in the field. They revealed the lack of efficiency of environmental management of the CU in question as well as the EE activities proposed by Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to the local community. From the observations of some practices that occurred during the field work, and according to reports from residents, they revealed that in most cases the institutions which promote the EE in Barra do Superagui do not know the local socialenvironmental reality and/or do not consider the peculiar sociocultural aspects of the traditional caiçara culture. Therefore, it is necessary to rethink the educational proposals implemented by both the NGOs and the national manager of UC. Accordingly, it is believed that the principles and concepts postulated by EE emancipation are efficient and should be given credit to the educational programs that seek for improvement in the life quality of the traditional populations inserted in CU, such as the caiçaras of Barra do Superagui.
Esta dissertação levanta elementos para se discutir o processo de Educação Ambiental (EA) nas Unidades de Conservação (UC), através do diagnóstico das práticas que contemplam a EA na Barra do Superagui. Considera-se a dinâmica socioambiental peculiar da vila de Pescadores como forma de avaliar as necessidades e as propostas educativas adotadas junto à comunidade local, no contexto de valorização social, de conservação e de preservação do patrimônio histórico, cultural e natural do Parque Nacional (PARNA) do Superagui. Para tanto, a presente pesquisa está pautada no estudo de caso enquanto procedimento metodológico, considerando que a observação é o principal recurso de investigação. Procurou-se apoio no estudo de caso, com o propósito de analisar como as atividades de EA refletem e/ou transformam a relação entre os indivíduos da comunidade da Barra do Superagui. Os resultados destacam-se através dos relatos dos moradores da Ilha, evidências da falta de eficiência da gestão ambiental da UC em questão, bem como das atividades de EA propostas pelas Organizações Não Governamentais (ONGs) junto à comunidade local. A partir das observações de algumas práticas que ocorreram durante os trabalhos de campo, e segundo os relatos dos moradores, percebe-se que, na maioria das vezes, as instituições que fomentam a EA na Barra do Superagui desconhecem a realidade socioambiental local e/ou não consideram os aspectos socioculturais peculiares da população tradicional caiçara. Portanto, faz-se necessário (re)pensar as propostas educativas implementadas tanto pelas ONGs como pelo órgão gestor da UC. Neste sentido, acredita-se que os princípios e conceitos postulados pela EA Emancipatória são eficientes e devem ser creditados aos programas educativos que buscam melhorar a qualidade de vida das populações tradicionais inseridas em UCs, como é o caso dos caiçaras da Barra do Superagui.

No presente trabalho faz-se a avaliação da situação crítica envolvendo a ruptura de uma barragem, com a formação de brecha no corpo da estrutura e a evolução da onda de cheia consequente em termos de vazão, nível e tempo de viagem em relação a seções transversais de jusante pré-fixadas. Duas abordagens de propagação da onda são contempladas e o caso teste utiliza dados do aproveitamento hidrelétrico de Três Marias, situado no rio São Francisco (MG), cujas finalidades são o amortecimento de cheias, a produção de energia elétrica e a manutenção da navegação.
This work presents an evaluation of a critical situation as a consequence of a dam break. There is a structure failure with a breach formation and a downstream outflow routing. This evaluation determines discharges, water levels and travel times in each fixed cross section of the river. The downstream routing is carried out by two different methods. A hypothetical failure of Três Marias dam in São Francisco river is studied and the final results are presented.

Quais fatores determinam a criação das varas da Justiça do Trabalho no Brasil? Este é o problema da pesquisa. De acordo com os critérios constitucionais, a população e a demanda judicial deveriam nortear a criação das varas judiciais. Porém, estudos anteriores na literatura de acesso à justiça indicam que há uma correlação entre a presença das varas estaduais e o Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano Municipal, ou seja, os municípios mais vulneráveis socialmente recebem menos unidades da Justiça Comum. A questão que se coloca é: a criação das varas trabalhistas acompanhou o recorte geográfico desigual da Justiça Estadual, ou apresenta uma realocação geográfica mais digna? A hipótese da pesquisa é de que quanto maior o IDH Municipal, maior a probabilidade do município receber uma vara trabalhista. A fim de testá-la, foi realizado um modelo estatístico com todos os municípios com mais de 15.000 habitantes em 1991, 2000 ou 2010, para que fosse possível mensurar o efeito do IDH na criação das varas controlando por outros fatores, como a população e a distância para capital do estado da federação. A análise foi dividida em três períodos temporais: 1991-1999, 2000-2009 e 2010-2015. Para cada década foi feito um modelo de regressão logística. Os resultados apontaram que o impacto do IDH Municipal no recebimento das varas trabalhistas foi estatisticamente significativo e teve um coeficiente relevante em todos os três períodos da análise. A população mostrou um alto potencial explicativo na década de 2000-2009, porém não manteve um resultado constante nos outros períodos. A distância para a capital do estado da federação não se mostrou relevante como as outras variáveis.
What is decisive for the creation of Labor Courts in Brazil? This is the research problem. According to constitutional criteria, population and judicial demand should guide the creation of judicial courts, but previous studies in the literature on access to justice indicate that there is a correlation between the presence of state courts and the Human Development Index. In order words, it means that most socially vulnerable municipalities receive fewer criminal and civil judicial units. The question is whether the creation of Labor Courts has followed the unequal distribution of State Justice, or has it expanded in a more balanced way? The hypothesis is that the higher the HDI, the more likely is that the city will receive a Labor Court Unit. Through a statistical model with all cities that had more than 15.000 inhabitants in 1991, 2000 or 2010, it was possible to measure the effect of HDI on the creation of labor judicial units, controlling for other variables, such as population and distance to the capital of state. The analysis was done in three different periods: 1991-1999; 2000-2009; 2010-2015. Each decade represents a logistic regression model. The results showed that the impact of the HDI was statistically significant and had a relevant coefficient in all three periods. On the other hand, population presented a high explanatory potential in 2000-2009, but not in the other decades. The distance to the state capital was not relevant as the other variables.

Dissertação apresentada na Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Engenharia Civil – Perfil de ConstruçãoO escoamento de um rio ao esgotar a sua capacidade de vazão em situação de cheia transborda do seu leito principal e estende-se aos denominados leitos de cheia, impondo ao rio uma configuração de secção composta. No leito principal, com maior profundidade, o escoamento atinge velocidades superiores comparativamente às que se verificam nos leitos de cheia. A influência das diferenças de velocidades e rugosidades entre os leitos condiciona o desenvolvimento do escoamento devido à interacção do escoamento no leito principal com o escoamento no(s) leito(s) de cheia, provocando transferências de massa e quantidade de movimento. Na presente dissertação são apresentados e analisados os resultados obtidos em ensaios experimentais realizados num canal de secção composta em regime uniforme. Foram medidas as alturas de água, velocidades longitudinais e tensões de arrastamento, parâmetros estudados para diferentes alturas relativas de escoamento com leitos de cheia em fundo liso e leitos de cheia em fundo rugoso, este último simulando a vegetação natural dos rios com a rugosidade dada por panos de relva sintética. Comparam-se os fenómenos ocorridos para as mesmas alturas de água no canal, em leitos de cheia com fundo liso e fundo rugoso. Com a passagem de leitos de cheia lisos para leitos de cheia rugosos verificou-se uma diminuição da capacidade de vazão do canal e um aumento da transferência de quantidade de movimento entre o leito principal e os leitos de cheia. O desenvolvimento da camada de mistura é condicionado pela altura relativa, mas ainda mais pela rugosidade nos leitos de cheia, cuja turbulência gerada junto ao fundo limita o desenvolvimento da camada de mistura.

This work aims to establish a theoretical and practical reflection between Anthropology and Art. Under the approach of the Anthropology of Performance, we delve into the experience of the huni kuin people, who inhabit Acre, in the Huwã Karu Yuxibu village. From the field research, materials were collected in the form of poetic writing, which was registered in a logbook to support the construction of an artistic process. Focusing on the memories of the journey and how they affect and permeate the artist-body, the research analyzes the Nixi Pae ritual to understand the relationship between ritual and performance. Based on these investigations, we develop the concept of a body as inscription of the experience in time. The concepts of memory, forgetfulness, territoriality and ethnic transfiguration permeate and weave theories on the indigenous culture and unfold into the artistic work. The space, figured in the poetics of the forest and the city, is traveled, revealing a performatic score and a practical process proposal of a moving body.
Este trabalho objetiva estabelecer a reflexão teórico-prática entre Antropologia e Arte. Sob o recorte da Antropologia da Performance, adentra-se na experiência do povo huni kuin, da aldeia Huwã Karu Yuxibu, no Acre. A partir da pesquisa de campo, foram recolhidos materiais na forma de escrita poética, registrada em um diário de bordo para amparo na construção de um processo artístico. Com enfoque nas memórias da viagem, e de como estas afetam e impregnam o corpo-artista, a pesquisa faz uma análise do ritual Nixi Pae para entender as relações entre ritual e performance. Com base nestas investigações, surge o conceito de um corpo que é inscrição da experiência no tempo. Os conceitos de memória, esquecimento, territorialidade e transfiguração étnica permeiam e tecem as teorias a respeito da cultura indígena e desdobram-se no trabalho artístico. O espaço, figurado na poética da floresta e da cidade, é percorrido, desvelando uma partitura performática e uma proposta de processo prático de um corpo em movimento.
