Abstract:
It is now two and a half years since the United States suspended military co­-operation with the Armed Forces of New Zealand (AFNZ) following the Labour Government's refusal to grant port-access to the USS Buchanan in January 1985. In this thesis I propose to study the consequences of the breakdown for the AFNZ with a view to establishing exactly what areas of co-operation have been affected and the significance this has for the professionalism and capability of the Services. Thus far, very few public studies have been made of the direct military costs of the ANZUS rift. Most attention has been focused on the state of political relations between the ANZUS powers. It is however, impossible to make a fully informed judgement about the merits of the Government's present defence policy of developing closer relations with Australia in the context of what it claims is a more self-reliant defence posture without some understanding of the problems that policy seeks to remedy. Accordingly, I hope to present that necessary background, and from this point will go on to discuss the extent to which the Government's defence policy addresses itself to the problems generated by the rift with the United States.

Abstract:
This thesis explains the evolution of US ballistic missile defence (BMD) policy between 1989 and 2010, by moving beyond the political rhetoric and intellectual obfuscation that surrounds the policy in the literature. By developing an explanatory framework to rigorously and systematically analyse the impact of different dynamics on policy, it explains the rhythms of day-to-day policy in particular context; explains the medium term shifts in the domestic political space within which day-to-day policy debate occurred, and explains the long term move towards acceptance and the gradual normalisation of BMD in American security policy. The primary argument of the thesis is that the particular configuration of domestic political institutions and party political pressures at any given time has been far more important in shaping BMD policy during each presidential administration since the end of the Cold War than has previously been acknowledged. Secondly, it argues that developments in the international system and technology have gradually altered the context within which this domestic political debate has occurred. Finally, it shows that domestic political influences, and the gradual shift in the contours of the domestic debate are the key reasons why BMD has gone from being one of the most divisive, zero-sum political issues in American national security thinking, to something that has largely become normalised, with debate now only occurring at the margins.

Esta abordagem tem como ponto de partida o movimento político de 3 de outubro de 1930, momento de ajustamento ideológico da Entidade aos interesses de Estado capitaneado pelos líderes da Entidade. A posterior ação intitulada de “Intentona Comunista”, em 1935, foi a suposta justificativa para o fechamento do regime, construindo o “perigo vermelho”. Assim, nossa análise terá este panorama inicial, culminando na II Guerra Mundial, ocasião em que o Brasil inicia seu alinhamento à política externa Estadunidense, completando a análise no golpe civil-militar em 1964. Esta abordagem tem como objetivo central verificar a hipótese da participação da Instituição no cenário político, a partir dos anos 1930, e a construção de um discurso político anticomunista, sucedendo possíveis contradições no discurso e na ação política da Entidade, mas que se manteve em sua agenda política, até o golpe, de forma inalterada. Em suma, avaliamos a interação da Liga de Defesa Nacional na política brasileira, traçando como hipótese que a Entidade, supostamente, se reconfigurou enquanto expressão de um Partido Militar, por meio de uma agenda modernizadora paralelamente ao combate ao Comunismo no Brasil.<br>This thesis identifies the nuances of the political agenda of National Defence League, in the period between 1930 until 1964, when the entity operated a change in his conservative modernization project for intervention against communism. This approach takes as its starting point the political movement of October 3, 1930, ideological adjustment time of entity to state interests captained by entity leaders. Further action titled "Communist Conspiracy" in 1935, was the supposed justification for the closure of the scheme due to the "red danger". So our analysis will have this initial overview, culminating in World War II, the occasion when Brazil begins its alignment with US foreign policy, completing the analysis in the civilmilitary coup in 1964. This approach is mainly aimed to verify the hypothesis of participation (or not) of the institution on the political scene from the 1930s and the construction of an antipolitical discourse, succeeding possible contradictions in speech and political activity of the Entity, but remained in their political agenda to the coup unchanged. In summary, we will seek to evaluate the interaction of National Defense League in Brazilian politics, tracing the hypothesis that the entity is supposed to be reconfigured as an expression of a military party, by means of a modernizing agenda in parallel with the fight against Communism in Brazil.

Abstract:
Dès 2005 et son élection à la tête du Parti conservateur, David Cameron fit connaître son intention de réviser la politique étrangère britannique selon les principes du « conservatisme libéral ». Prenant ses distances avec le réalisme qui avait guidé les choix de Margaret Thatcher et de John Major aux lendemains de la guerre froide, Cameron associait la défense des intérêts nationaux et le maintien du rôle du Royaume-Uni sur la scène internationale avec le renouveau d’une tradition libérale, qu’il prenait cependant soin de distinguer des excès de l’interventionnisme dont avait fait preuve Tony Blair après 2001. Arrivés au pouvoir en mai 2010 au sein d’un gouvernement de coalition, les Conservateurs refusaient l’idée de tout repli stratégique, en dépit du décalage qui existait entre leurs ambitions et les moyens limités qu’ils étaient en mesure de consacrer à la politique de sécurité. Par le biais de l’analyse de deux études de cas : la signature d’accords de coopération bilatérale avec la France, le 2 novembre 2010, et l’intervention militaire en Libye de 2011, cette thèse examine les facteurs qui influencèrent les décisions prises par le nouveau gouvernement, ainsi que les mécanismes ayant conduit à leur adoption. Suivant une approche interprétiviste, ce travail étudie les traditions, c’est-à-dire l’héritage historique, dans lesquelles les actions du gouvernement de coalition s’inscrivirent, mais aussi la manière dont les différents acteurs de ce domaine spécifique de la politique du pays ont fait évoluer cet héritage pour répondre aux dilemmes posés par l’émergence de nouvelles menaces dans un contexte de réduction des dépenses de l’Etat et d’incertitude stratégique<br>Soon after he was elected leader of the Conservative Party in 2005, David Cameron signalled his intention to implement a foreign policy based on ‘liberal Conservative’ principles. Cameron distanced himself from the realism that had guided the choices made by Margaret Thatcher and John Major in the aftermath of the Cold War. Therefore, he associated the defence of national interests, as well as the preservation of Britain’s role in the world, to the revival of the liberal tradition. However, he also insisted on the difference between his approach and the excesses of Tony Blair’s interventionism after 2001. The Conservatives, who were part of the Coalition Government that took office in May 2010, rejected the idea of strategic shrinkage, in spite of the existing gap between their ambitions and the limited resources they could allocate to security policy. Through the analysis of two case studies – the signing of the Lancaster House Treaties on 2 November 2010, and the 2011 military intervention in Libya – this thesis examines the factors that influenced the decisions made by the new government, as well as the mechanisms that led to them. By adopting an interpretivist perspective on these events, the thesis studies the traditions, that is to say the historical inheritance that formed the background of the government’s actions, but also the way the various actors involved in that specific area of policy modified that inheritance to respond to the dilemmas created by the emergence of new threats in a context of cuts in government spending and strategic uncertainty

Peña, Machuca Carmen Rosa. "El consentimiento informado y su defensa por parte del estado." Bachelor's thesis, Universidad Ricardo Palma, 2017. http://cybertesis.urp.edu.pe/handle/urp/1372.

Full text
Abstract:
El consentimiento informado es una de las aportaciones más innovadoras e importantes de la ciencia jurídica a la medicina. Pues en el ámbito de la medicina, la concepción tradicional de la relación médico-paciente ha sido paternalista, es decir, una relación en la que el médico era considerado como un sabio, capaz de tomar las decisiones más adecuadas para el paciente respecto al tratamiento que éste debía seguir, sin tener en cuenta su voluntad; en cambio el paciente, era considerado un individuo carente de racionalidad e incapaz de saber lo que le conviene para mejorar su salud. Hoy en día, resulta indiscutible la función esencial que cumple la autonomía de la voluntad del paciente, por el cual se le atribuye un papel mucho más activo y participativo en la toma de decisiones frente al que tenía en generaciones pasadas. Ello implica, el reconocimiento del derecho que tiene el paciente a decidir lo que resulta mejor para sus intereses, esto es, la autonomía que tiene para consentir o rechazar un procedimiento, diagnóstico o terapia recomendado. Como consecuencia de este reconocimiento, es que surge en garantía de éste el derecho a la información, ello como una manifestación de protección a la salud. Y es que resulta indiscutible el carácter fundamental de este derecho en las relaciones médico-paciente, cuyos avances en investigación clínica y el rápido desarrollo de la tecnología médica han hecho que se planteen nuevas medidas y normativas con miras a proteger los derechos de los pacientes. 7 Por tanto, la presente investigación tiene por objeto el realizar un estudio jurídico sobre el consentimiento informado en las relaciones médico-paciente tanto en el ámbito nacional como en el internacional. Y es que el consentimiento informado como tal, no ha sido un tema frecuentemente desarrollado a profundidad por la doctrina e incluso por los tratados de biomedicina; ello quizás porque su aplicabilidad se ha visto reducido a la elaboración de un complejo protocolo del acto médico a realizar, lo que finaliza con la aceptación por parte del paciente. El asombro e indignación que este hecho causa, acompañado además de la insensibilidad del médico por explicar con claridad el proceso a seguir y de las posibles complicaciones que puede generar este procedimiento o tratamiento, así como la vulneración del derecho a la información que tiene todo paciente, nos ha conducido a desarrollar esta investigación por capítulos, en los cuales de manera clara y sencilla se explica la problemática, los objetivos de la investigación, su regulación y el planteamiento de posibles soluciones. Tal es el caso, que en el Capítulo I se describe de forma concreta la problemática de la presente investigación, estableciendo las hipótesis a responder, la importancia y los objetivos a obtener. Seguidamente, el Capítulo II desarrollamos el derecho a la salud como derecho fundamental de todo ser humano, derecho importante para definir posteriormente al consentimiento informado, toda vez que éste es una manifestación del mencionado derecho y que por ende merece ser tratado a profundidad a fin de determinar su importancia. 8 En el Capítulo III, hacemos un breve recuento de los antecedentes históricos del consentimiento informado, expresado en sus inicios a través de la jurisprudencia norteamericana en cuyos casos, se explica y se trata con detalle por primera vez el término consentimiento informado. El Capítulo IV, se darrolla el contenido, titular y momento del Consentimiento Informado. Asimismo, el Capítulo V se explica el tratamiento del consentimiento informado tanto en el ordenamiento jurídico como en la jurisprudencia nacional; así como en la normativa y jurisprudencia internacional, en específico de los países de Costa Rica y España. En el capítulo VI, se desarrolla la ausencia del consentimiento informado, punto relevante ya que ante la omisión de brindar la información al paciente, este hecho constituye una vulneración no sólo al derecho a la información del paciente sino que también, vulnera los derechos a la salud, a la determinación y a la dignidad que todo ser humano por su condición de tal posee. Finalmente, el Capítulo VII abarca la propuesta legislativa como posible solución ante el incorrecto uso de este derecho, toda vez que no se subsume a un simple protocolo o formulario escrito, sino que su principal objetivo es mantener informado de forma clara y comprensible al paciente, de manera que éste puede otorgar su consentimiento en un total plano de conciencia-juicio de valor sobre la situación dada.

Abstract:
Recently, cholesterol metabolism has been shown to modulate the infection of several viruses and there is growing evidence that inflammatory response to infection also modulates lipid metabolism. However little is known about the role of inflammatory processes in modulating lipid metabolism and their consequences for the viral infection. This study investigates host-lipid viral interaction pathways using mouse cytomegalovirus, a large double-stranded DNA genome, which represents one of the few models for a natural infection of its natural host. In this study, transcriptomic and lipidomic profiling of macrophages shows that there is a specific coordinated regulation of the sterol pathways upon viral infection or treatment with IFNγ or β (but not TNFα, IL1β or IL6) resulting in the decrease of free cellular cholesterol. Furthermore, we show that pharmacological and RNAi inhibition of the sterol pathway augments protection against infection in vitro and in vivo and we identified that the prenylation branch of the sterol metabolic network was involved in the protective response. Finally, we show that genetic knock out of IFNβ results in a partial reduction while genetic knock out of Ifnar1 completely abolishes the reduction of the sterol biosynthetic activity upon infection. Overall these results support a role for part of the sterol metabolic network in protective immunity and show that type 1 IFN signalling is both necessary and sufficient for reducing the sterol metabolic network upon infection; thereby linking the sterol pathway with IFN defence responses.

Abstract:
That police have special moral obligations to protect others is an important moral consideration which is largely absent from discourse about the moral permissibility of police killings of civilians in self-defence. I argue that police officers, at least when acting ex officio, face a special justificatory burden such that the set of conditions under which a police officer may permissibly kill a civilian in self-defence is more tightly constrained than the set of conditions under which a civilian may kill a fellow civilian in self-defence. In other words, police officers' right to kill in self-defence is attenuated by their special moral obligation to protect others. I provide three arguments for this claim. First, police have a special obligation to protect others, even at risk to themselves. Thus, there are some situations in which, compared to a civilian, an officer must tolerate an elevated level of risk of harm to herself before she is justified in resorting to defensive harm. Second, police have a derivative obligation to minimise imposing harm on those whom they have undertaken to protect. It is a greater wrong to harm those to whom one has special moral duties. Thus, compared to the civilian, the police officer must give greater moral weight to the possibility that she is facing an innocent or non-responsible threat. The third argument rests on the view that the right to self-defence derives from the right protect oneself. I show that the special moral obligations of police officers attenuate this right and, derivatively, attenuate their right to self-defence as well.<br>Master of Arts<br>Discussions about the morality of police killings of civilians in self-defence lack an important consideration; they fail to take into account the fact that police have special moral obligations to protect others.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>Counterfeit electronic parts in the Department of Defense (DOD) supply chain undermine the operational readiness and performance of weapons systems, provide a competitive edge to adversaries, and put warfighters at risk. Consumer demand for products containing integrated circuits has risen dramatically. Electronics manufacturers leverage overseas production to reduce cost. The loss of the domestic semiconductor industry and a variety of DOD acquisition policies contributed to an environment that introduces risk of foreign manufactured components of unverifiable pedigree into many DOD systems. Current policy and statutory controls are inadequate to stem the growth of counterfeit and nonconforming parts in the DOD supply chain. This Joint Applied Project considers the history and scope of the counterfeit parts issue and its contributing factors, and proposes a tiered solution to more effectively ensure the safety, quality, and specification conformance of integrated circuit components.

Abstract:
The legal provision that the Spanish legislator makes about absence at trial is adequate and proportionate to its ultimate goal, which is to fully guarantee the rights of those who are party to a process in all branches of the law. This conclusion can be reached not only by studying existing Spanish procedural legislation on the matter, but also by examining the procedural rules of other European states on the same issue. Apparent in the legal decisions examined in this doctoral thesis, which number more than forty, are the criteria established by the Spanish Constitutional Court and Supreme Court for the requirements that must be met by the service of judicial documents in order to be considered duly performed and thus guarantee the rights of the parties to the process, in particular those of the party in absentia. Another of the key questions explored by this thesis are cases in which foreign nationals are handed over after a request is issued by another State that makes use of international legal cooperation mechanisms, both in cases of extradition and the European Arrest Warrant. I will focus in particular on the latter by examining some of the most notable resolutions of the European Court of Human Rights in this regard. Framework Decision 2009/299 is established as an effective mechanism to overcome the problems the aforementioned hand over can sometimes create and, ultimately, to ensure the mutual recognition of decisions rendered without the person concerned appearing at trial.<br>La previsión legal que hace el legislador español sobre la ausencia en juicio es adecuada y proporcionada a la finalidad última de la misma que no puede ser otra que asegurar la plena garantía de los derechos de los que son partes en el proceso en todos los órdenes jurisdiccionales. A esta conclusión es posible llegar no solamente después de estudiar la legislación procesal española existente en la materia sino también examinando la regulación procesal que sobre el mismo particular realizan otros estados europeos. En las resoluciones que se examinan en esta tesis doctoral, algo más de cuarenta, es dable apreciar el criterio fijado por el Tribunal Constitucional y también por el Tribunal Supremo en materia de requisitos que deben reunir los actos de comunicación para que se consideren debidamente realizados y garanticen así los derechos de las partes en el proceso y sobre todo del ausente. Otra de las cuestiones capitales de esta tesis es lo relativo a los casos en los que se realizan entregas de nacionales ante el requerimiento efectuado por otro estado en uso de mecanismos de cooperación jurídica internacional, tanto casos de extradición como de Ordenes Europeas de Detención y Entrega, deteniéndome en especial en éste último supuesto y examinando alguna de las resoluciones del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos que en esta materia destacan. La Decisión Marco 2009/299 se erige como un mecanismo de eficacia fundamental para superar los problemas que produce en ocasiones la referida entrega y en definitiva, el reconocimiento mutuo de resoluciones dictadas sin la comparecencia en juicio de la persona afectada.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.B.A.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management; and, (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics; in conjunction with the Leaders for Manufacturing Program at MIT, 2007.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 89-90).<br>Within the Integrated Defense Systems of The Boeing Company, aftermarket support of military aircraft serves as an increasingly large source of revenue. One of the newest contracts between Boeing and the U.S. Government created such a supply partnership at the Army Rotorcraft Repair Depot in Corpus Christi, Texas. At this depot, all Army helicopters, including Boeing's AH-64 Apache Attack helicopter and CH-47 Chinook Cargo helicopter undergo major repair and overhaul. In 2004, Boeing entered an agreement with the U.S. Government to assume responsibility of the repair depot's supply chain for aftermarket parts for Boeing rotorcraft. Over the last two years, Boeing has been creating and refining Corpus Christi's support structure to ensure that the required repair parts arrive when demanded. In establishing this new supply chain, Boeing has identified numerous inefficiencies as a result of inaccurate and highly volatile forecasts. This thesis examines the impact of volatility within the new support structure and creates flexible solutions to mitigate its negative effects on lead times, multiple sources of supply and inventory management.<br>(cont.) Efforts to increase communication flow across the supply chain are used to capitalize on economies of scale for cost reduction while safety stock recommendations are made for critical end-items. Monte Carlo simulations are employed to justify and validate the solutions. The results of the thesis reveal that a strategic selection of raw material safety stock can reduce procurement lead times by an average 61% for a subset of parts while maintaining financial responsibility. Additionally, by leveraging cost reduction techniques, an average increase of 11% in Boeing's income from sales can be achieved while eliminating inefficient administrative delays and increasing customer fulfillment rates. These two recommendations demonstrate specific solutions for mitigating the effects of demand volatility and inaccurate forecasting.<br>by Kevin Michael Myers.<br>S.M.<br>M.B.A.

Abstract:
This study uses variables derived from Rational Choice Theory to examine the theory’s predicted covariancebetween public opinion and the parties’ policies. The collection of material has been guided by three arenas: the parliamentarian, the media and the voter’s. It has categorized the analysis based on the strategy concept, using ends, means and ways. It asks how the Moderate Party and the Social Democratic Party changed their strategy within the period of 31 May 2013 and 14 September 2014, and how this can be understood from a rational choice perspective. The purpose of the study is to examine the assumptions of Rational Choice Theory in the Swedish context in front of the election in 2014, and to understand this from the perspective of the theory. This can help in our understanding of defense policy formation and to our understanding of states’ relations on the international arena. The results show that there has been a more ambitious change in defense policy which covariates with the indicated positive change in public opinion on defense issues, but this did not make defense issues one of the 2014 election’s most important questions for the voters in choice of party to vote for. This can be understood as rational, seen from a RCT-perspective, since the other issues renders more support, a circumstance that is in line with the history of Swedish elections.

Abstract:
Service parts sometimes break down unexpectedly and require maintenance. The irregular nature of the need for this type of maintenance makes forecasting difficult and unreliable. Saab currently experiences problems with long delays when performing unplanned maintenance of service parts used in the two models of Gripen aircraft, Gripen C and Gripen D. These delays are source of monetary waste, as late delivery of maintained service parts results in Saab having to pay penalty fines to the customers. The purpose of this master thesis was to analyze data collected during a case study at Saab in Linköping, and suggest improvements for how to reduce these delays. This study focused on analyzing what caused the delays, and how the information provided by the customers can be used by the operative planners at the Maintenance, Repair \&amp; Overhaul (MRO) workshops in order to be more efficient. The data was collected during the case study using semi-structured interviews of 16 people working with the current system, as well as by collecting historical data from an internal database at Saab. This data was analyzed in parallel with a literature study of relevant research related to service parts supply chains, MRO workshops, and unplanned maintenance operations. The analysis showed that there were four types of interruptions of maintenance; Internal stock-out of spare parts, internal stock-out of sub-units, external delays at the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), and internal equipment breakdowns. A root cause analysis found that the four root causes of delays were: Saab does not have any contracts that incentivizes their OEM's to deliver on time. The  data from the technical report is not used to provide the operative planners with information about incoming orders. The MRO workshops do not have a standardized system for prioritizing maintenance of service parts. The MRO workshops currently lacks a method for predicting certain types of machine breakdowns.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to produce partially reinforced aluminum metal matrix composite components by insertion casting technique and to determine the effects of silicon content, fiber vol% and infiltration temperature on the mechanical properties of inserts, which were the local reinforcement parts of the components. Silicon content of alloys was selected as 7 wt% and 10 wt%. The reinforcement material, i.e. Saffil fiber preforms, had three different fiber vol% of 20, 25 and 30 vol% respectively. The infiltration temperatures of composite specimens were fixed as 750 &deg<br>C and 800 &deg<br>C. In the first part of the thesis, physical and mechanical properties of composite specimens were determined according to the parameters of silicon content of the matrix alloy, infiltration temperature and vol% of the reinforcement phase. X-ray diffraction examination of fibers resulted as the fibers mainly composed of deltaalumina fibers and scanning electron microscopy analyses showed that fibers had planar isotropic condition for infiltration. Microstructural examination of composite specimens showed that appropriate fiber/matrix interface was created together with small amount of micro-porosities. Bending tests of the composites showed that as fiber vol% increases flexural strength of the composite increases. The highest strength obtained was 880.52 MPa from AlSi10Mg0.8 matrix alloy reinforced with 30 vol% Saffil fibers and infiltrated at 750 &deg<br>C. Hardness values were also increased by addition of Saffil fibers and the highest value was obtained as 191 HB from vertical to the fiber orientation of AlSi10Mg0.8 matrix alloy reinforced with 30 vol% Saffil fibers. Density measurement revealed that microporosities existed in the microstructure and the highest difference between the theoretical values and experimental values were observed in the composites of 30 vol% Saffil fiber reinforced ones for both AlSi7Mg0.8 and AlSi10Mg0.8 matrix alloys. In the second part of the experiments, insertion casting operation was performed. At casting temperature of 750 &deg<br>C, a good interface/component interface was obtained. Image analyses were also showed that there had been no significant fiber damage between the insert and the component.

Abstract:
The thesis deals with marginally explored area of expert capacities of the Czech political parties with respect to the different organizational types of selected political parties and movements. The work aims to find out what expert capacities work for these types of political parties, how these experts are recruited in their position, whether it corresponds to their educational background and professional experiences with function, which are they holding in the expert authority. Work is elaborated in the form of case study, which focuses on the activities of defense policy expert commissions. The text is divided into two theoretical and one empirical chapters. The first chapter deals with the process of policy-making, its actors and activities associated with this process. The second chapter defines the various types of political parties first from the mainstream perspective (cadre, mass, catch-all parties), which complements the modern concept of business party and finally there is a typology of S. Wolinetz (office-seeking, vote-seeking, policy-seeking parties). The last empirical chapter presents the case study focused on four Czech political parties (TOP 09, KSČM, ČSSD and political movement ANO 2011) and their access to party expertise. The result of this work is to compare the level of analytical capacity across selected political parties/movements and testing of hypotheses formulated in the introduction of the thesis.

Abstract:
PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>O debate sobre a (des)igualdade aflora no seio social dos Estados, especialmente naqueles que implantam uma proposta democrática. Igualdade é pressuposto de democracia e projeta-se também no processo penal. Apesar de afirmar a igualdade de armas entre as partes, identifica-se que as desigualdades materiais não são compensadas dentro do processo público, sobretudo nas sociedade latino-americanas. As garantias processuais acabam afirmando, paradoxalmente, a igualdade de sujeitos desiguais. Esta realidade se agrava no contexto da América Latina quando, tanto o Direito Penal quando o Processo Penal, desempenham uma função de controle de massas, de caráter clientelista, orientado a conter possíveis insatisfações da grande massa de excluídos. O principal objetivo deste trabalho, é pois, compreender a participação do acusado no processo penal, inserido no modelo predominantemente acusatório, procurando harmonizar a garantia de igualdade formal à desigualdade material, a fim de que efetivamente se assegure a garantia de acesso a Justiça Penal a todos os cidadãos. Promover-se-á, dessa forma, uma crítica ao processo penal, onde a participação do acusado, em igualdade de condições formais e materiais, na formação do provimento final deve ser compreendida como pressuposto de legitimação da aplicação do Direito Penal, igualdade essa alcançada, sobretudo, pela afirmação de amplitude de defesa ao acusado pelo Estado. A pesquisa busca fundamentação na teoria do Garantismo Penal, de LUIGI FERRAJOLI, que situa o contraditório e a ampla defesa como técnicas jurisdicionais normativamente admitidas, assegurando ao acusado, sobretudo aos excluídos dos projetos neoliberais, igualdade de participação na formação da verdade a ser encerrada pelo provimento final.<br>The discussion about (in) equality appears in the social aspect of the States, specially those wich implemented a democratic proposal. Equality is a presupposition of democracy and also projects itself in the criminal process. Despite affirming the equality between the parts, it is identified that the material inequalities are not compesated inthe public process, mainly in the Latin American societies. The reality is aggravated in the context Latin America when, both Criminal Law ans the Criminal Process, have as its main function Mass Control, of a Patronage system, oriented to contain the possible unsatisfactions of great number of excluded individuals. The main objective of this paper is to understand the participation of the accused individual in the Criminal Process inserted in the predominantly accusatory model, trying to cope with the guarantee of formal equality and the material inequality, so that it effectively reassure the guarantee of access to the Criminal Law to all citizens. The research is based on Teoria do Garantismo Penal ( Criminal Guaranteeing Theory) by Luigi Ferrajoli, that situates the contradictory and the ample defense with jurisdictional technics normatively accepted, assuring the accused, above all the excluded from the neoliberal projects, equality in participation int the formation of the truth to be enclosed by the final provision.

The purpose with this study is to investigate how the two biggest political parties, the Social Democrats and the Moderate/Conservative Party, looks at a membership in the defense alliance North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The question have the illegal annexation of Crimea affected how the parties look at a membership in Nato will be answered and analyzed. How they discuss, how they believe that a membership can affect the Swedish foreign policy will be examined in this paper.   Nato is a topic that during the last century’s have divided the Swedish population into two groups: one that advocates a membership and one that fight’s against a Swedish membership in the alliance. The debate about Nato has, since the illegal annexation of the Crimea, changed and are now more relevant than ever to discuss. This paper illustrates how the Moderate/Conservative Party and the Social Democrats argues in the debate regarding a membership in Nato.   Since 2003 the Moderate/Conservative Party are in favor of a membership in the defense alliance Nato, what this paper will find out is why they want Sweden to become a member in Nato and how they argue for a membership. The Social Democrats are not in favor of a membership in the defense alliance, they advocates the defense line Sweden have had since the mid 1900s, the Non-alignment.

Abstract:
Manufacture testing of digital integrated circuits is essential for high quality. However, exhaustive testing is impractical, and only a small subset of all possible test patterns (or test pattern pairs) may be applied. Thus, it is crucial to choose a subset that detects a high percentage of the defective parts and produces a low defective part level. Historically, test pattern generation has often been seen as a deterministic endeavor. Test sets are generated to deterministically ensure that a large percentage of the targeted faults are detected. However, many real defects do not behave like these faults, and a test set that detects them all may still miss many defects. Unfortunately, modeling all possible defects as faults is impractical. Thus, it is important to fortuitously detect unmodeled defects using high quality test sets. To maximize fortuitous detection, we do not assume a high correlation between faults and actual defects. Instead, we look at the common requirements for all defect detection. We deterministically maximize the observations of the leastobserved sites while randomly exciting the defects that may be present. The resulting decrease in defective part level is estimated using the MPGD model. This dissertation describes the MPGD defective part level model and shows how it can be used to predict defective part levels resulting from static defect detection. Unlike many other predictors, its predictions are a function of site observations, not fault coverage, and thus it is generally more accurate at high fault coverages. Furthermore, its components model the physical realities of site observation and defect excitation, and thus it can be used to give insight into better test generation strategies. Next, we investigate the effect of additional constraints on the fortuitous detection of defects-specifically, as we focus on detecting dynamic defects instead of static ones. We show that the quality of the randomness of excitation becomes increasingly important as defect complexity increases. We introduce a new metric, called excitation balance, to estimate the quality of the excitation, and we show how excitation balance relates to the constant τ in the MPGD model.

Abstract:
Le Health monitoring (maintenance préventive conditionnelle) appliqué aux transmissions par engrenages et basé sur des mesures dynamiques et/ou acoustiques est une méthodologie en plein développement. Cependant, cette technologie peut se heurter à des difficultés d’analyse des signaux pour identifier les défaillances. C’est pourquoi une autre approche de Health monitoring peut être envisagée, cette fois-ci basée sur des mesures thermiques. Le niveau de température des systèmes mécaniques est imposé par leur efficacité énergétique et leur environnement. Ainsi une dégradation des composants mécaniques peut se traduire par une diminution du rendement et donc une augmentation de la température du composant touché. L’étude s’est donc portée sur l’évaluation de la capacité d’une approche thermique à permettre la détection de défauts mais aussi le diagnostic et le pronostic des composants mécaniques. Une étude bibliographique a pu montrer que l’analyse thermique est effectivement une approche viable pour détecter les défaillances dans les transmissions mécaniques. Un nombre relativement important d’études s’est déjà intéressé à ce sujet. Cependant cette investigation a aussi montré que les études existantes étaient rarement en mesure de diagnostiquer ou pronostiquer l’état des transmissions mécaniques du fait d’un manque de modèle associé. La réalisation d’un modèle utilisant la méthode des réseaux thermiques a permis de montrer que les variations de pertes entrainent des variations localisées de températures. Le modèle a aussi permis de montrer que les variations de températures étaient directement proportionnelles aux variations de pertes observées. Ces deux observations suggèrent que les mesures thermiques doivent permettre de réaliser respectivement le diagnostic et le pronostic des transmissions mécaniques. L’utilisation de machines bi-disques, qui simulent les conditions de contact des engrenages, a permis de mettre en évidence un lien direct entre la présence de défauts, en l’occurrence le micropitting, et l’augmentation du coefficient de frottement des surfaces lubrifiées. Cette série d’essais suggère aussi que les engrenages des transmissions mécaniques pourraient voir leur rendement impacté par la présence de défauts. Finalement l’utilisation d’un banc FZG a permis de réaliser des essais de caractérisations des pertes et des températures à plusieurs niveaux de développement du micropitting sur les dentures. Ces essais ont permis de montrer que les températures d’une transmission mécanique sont directement impactées par les variations de pertes. Les variations des températures se sont avérées cohérentes avec celles issues du modèle numérique élaboré. Au final, ces résultats montrent que l’étude des températures est un moyen viable de diagnostiquer l’état de transmissions mécaniques<br>Health monitoring applied to gear units and based on dynamic or acoustic measurements is a growing technology. It is especially true in the present industrial context that tends to increase constrains on any mechanical systems. Nevertheless, this technology faces great difficulties regarding signal treatments and failure identifications. Thus, another health monitoring approach based on temperature measurements is considered. Enclosed gear drive temperatures are imposed by their efficiency and their environment. Therefore, any component damage can lead to efficiency degradation and so a local temperature increase. The proposed study aims to evaluate the capability of temperature measurements to detect, diagnose and estimate the remaining life expectancy of any mechanical component. A bibliographic study shows that temperature analysis is a valid approach to detect failure in mechanical systems. Indeed, a substantial number of studies deal with this subject. But, these studies are rarely able to diagnose or estimate remaining life expectancy as they are lacking of a comprehensive thermal model. Considering this observation, a model based on the thermal network approach was developed to simulate the energetic behavior of a given gear unit. It shows that any variation in mechanical system efficiency results in localized temperature increase. It also reveals that the simulated temperature variation is proportional to the power loss one. Those two observations suggest that temperature measurements could be a relevant approach. Experimental investigations were conducted with twin-disc machines to replicate gear mesh contact conditions. This study shows that a defect such as micropitting has a direct impact on friction coefficient for a lubricated contact. The relationship between friction increase and defect number appears to be proportional. These experiments suggest that the efficiency of geared mechanical systems could be directly impacted with such failures. Finally, an FZG test rig was used to experimentally characterize the effect of micropitting on power losses and temperatures. Tests indicate that there is a direct relationship between efficiency and temperatures. Furthermore, efficiency variations are numerically linked to gear surface features and micropitting magnitude evolutions observed during tests. Temperature variation appears to be consistent with the ones obtained with the thermal model. In fine these results show that temperature measurements are a valuable approach to diagnose and estimate the remaining life expectancy of a geared mechanical system

Abstract:
Alors que le contentieux des produits de santé n'a jamais été aussi fourni, l'application du régime spécial de responsabilité du fait des produits défectueux issu de la directive européenne du 25 juillet 1985, entraîne l'émergence d'un certain nombre d'incertitudes qui affectent directement le sort des demandes en réparation. Les incertitudes matérielles ont, pour la plupart reçu un traitement efficace par l'action conjuguée de la jurisprudence et du législateur. Si les outils juridiques traditionnels, tels que les présomptions ou la causalité alternative, ont permis de résoudre une partie non négligeable de ces incertitudes, les juges se sont également attachés à développer des outils nouveaux comme la balance bénéfice/risque ou encore la répartition de l'obligation à la dette selon les parts de marché. Cependant, si le développement de ces outils juridiques, plus adaptés aux spécificités des produits de santé, a permis d'apporter une solution efficace aux incertitudes matérielles, le traitement de l'incertitude scientifique, fondé sur les présomptions du fait de l'homme, n'apporte, toujours pas, de solutions satisfaisantes. L'étude du traitement des incertitudes dans le contentieux des produits de santé défectueux permet d'apprécier les acquis mais également les limites atteintes par l'utilisation de certains outils mis à la disposition des juges et qui se révèlent parfois inadaptés. L'intervention du législateur et la prise en compte des spécificités des produits de santé, permettraient de développer un système d'indemnisation adapté qui interviendrait de façon subsidiaire en cas d'échec de la voie contentieuse<br>At a time when healthcare-product litigation is attaining record heights, the implementation into French law of the special liability regime for defective products, which derives from the European Council Directive of 25 July 1985, has led to the emergence of several grey areas of uncertainty which have a direct impact on the outcome of claims for compensation. Areas of material uncertainty have, for the most part, been effectively dealt with through the combined application of case law and the intervention of the legislator. While classic legal tools such as presumption and alternative causality provide a means to resolve a non-negligible part of these uncertainties, judges have also endeavoured to develop new tools, such as risk/utility test and market-share liability. Still, although the development of these legal tools - better suited as they are to the specific features of healthcare products - provide an effective solution to resolving areas of material uncertainty, the treatment of scientific uncertainty, which is based on presumptions of fact, does not always provide satisfactory solutions. The study of the legal treatment of uncertainty in healthcare-product litigation provides a means to assess the benefits but also the limitations of certain tools that are now available to judges but which at times prove inadequate. Intervention on the part of the legislator, while at the same time taking into account the specific features of healthcare products, could lead to the development of a suitable compensation system that could afford relief when litigation fails

Abstract:
Malgré le peu de fondements écrits consacrés à la justice dans le texte de la Constitution du 4 octobre 1958, le Conseil constitutionnel, en réalisant un travail d’actualisation à partir de la Déclaration des droits de l’homme et du citoyen, a permis l’émergence d’un droit constitutionnel processuel, construit autour de principes directeurs. Ceux-ci peuvent être répartis dans trois catégories : deux principales, selon que l’acteur du procès prioritairement concerné soit le juge ou les parties et une troisième, complémentaire, celle des garanties procédurales, permettant de favoriser les qualités essentielles du juge et de contrôler le respect des droits des parties. Une gradation des exigences du Conseil constitutionnel est discrètement perceptible entre les deux premières catégories de principes, plus facilement identifiable entre celles-ci et la dernière famille. Cette échelle décroissante de « densité » des principes directeurs du procès témoigne d’une véritable politique jurisprudentielle en matière de droit constitutionnel processuel, qui met l’accent sur l’accès au juge, doté des qualités indispensables à l’accomplissement de sa mission juridictionnelle. Toutefois, aussi satisfaisante que soit l’action du juge constitutionnel français à l’égard du droit du procès, celle-ci nécessiterait aujourd’hui le relais du constituant, afin de moderniser le statut constitutionnel de la justice<br>In spite of a relatively low number of written dispositions dedicated to justice inside of the body of the Constitution of October 1958 4th, the constitutional Council, while updating this text through the Declaration of Human Rights, contributed to the development of a procedural constitutional law, which is structured around guiding principles. Those principles can be classified within three different categories : two major categories depend on the trial actor that is primarily concerned, either the judge or the parties; a third and additional category pertaining to procedural protections, fosters the essential qualities of the judge and secure the protection of the parties’ rights. A gradation of the requirements of the constitutional Council is discreetly perceptible between the first two categories of principles, and more easily identifiable between those first two categories and the last one. This decreasing scale of “density” yoked to the trial guiding principles highlights a genuine judicial policy when it comes to procedural constitutional law, emphasizing access to the judge, whom is given essential qualities in order to achieve its judicial duty. However, the action of the French constitutional judge, as satisfactory as it is towards the rights of the trial, would easily support the intervention of the constituent power in order to update Justice’s constitutional status

Рассмотрено доктринальное развитие теории favor defensionis. Определена сущность благоприятствования защите как института уголовного процессуального права. Под институтом благоприятствования защите понимается совокупность правовых норм, которые наделяют сторону защиты исключительными правами, устанавливают обязанности лиц, имеющих властные полномочия, совершать процессуальные действия в интересах защиты, с целью уравновешивания комплекса прав и возможностей сторон уголовного производства для отстаивания собственных утверждений перед судом и возражения доводов стороны обвинения. Установлено, что содержание института благоприятствования защите охватывает правовые нормы, устанавливающие: исключительные права стороны защиты; обязанности лиц, имеющих властные полномочия, совершать процессуальные действия в интересах стороны защиты; принципы уголовного производства, благоприятствующие защите. Охарактеризовано содержание института благоприятствования защите в соответствии с действующим УПК Украины. Установлено, что значение реализации института благоприятствования защите в уголовно-процессуальном доказывании заключается в расширении пределов активности подозреваемого (обвиняемого) и защитника в уголовнопроцессуальном доказывании, что является необходимым шагом для создания надлежащих условий отстаивания их правовых позиций перед судом на основе процессуального равенства сторон. Определен процессуальный порядок собирания доказательств стороной защиты во время досудебного расследования. Охарактеризован процесс собирания доказательств во время досудебного расследования сторонами уголовного производства с учетом функционирования института благоприятствования защите. Установлено, что реализация института благоприятствования защите в процессуальной деятельности стороны обвинения по собиранию доказательств во время досудебного расследования выражается в наделении подозреваемого исключительными правами. Исследован правовой порядок реализации исключительных прав подозреваемого во время досудебного расследования. Рассмотрен правовой порядок заявления и рассмотрения ходатайств стороны защиты, которые направлены на собирание и проверку доказательств, в контексте благоприятствования защите.

Abstract:
The People's Republic of China is developing a sophisticated Anti-Access/Area-Denial operational concept utilising a variety of defensive military capabilities, entwined with offensive components. The United States, Japan and other Asia-Pacific countries remain sceptical about China's defensive rationale for developing this operational concept because it threatens to undermine Asia-Pacific security. Specifically, the threat posed by China's military modernisation to the security of Japan may force the Japanese Government to adopt a more self-reliant defence posture. However, there are a variety of factors that complicate Japan's perception of China and restrict the number of feasible response options open to the Japanese Government. As such, this sub-thesis will examine the nature of China's Anti-Access/Area-Denial operational concept in addition to the factors complicating Japan's response and finally the ways that Japan may respond to the rising power of China.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國防大學<br>財務管理學系<br>105<br>The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between macroeconomic variables and defense spending in Taiwan by including political affiliation as a factor in addition to the annual gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate (1987–2015), national income, consumer price index, labor force participation rate, and unemployment rate. The empirical results showed that the macroeconomic variables and political affliction exerted varying effects on defense spending. Moreover, regarding the significance of defense spending in public expenditure, increasing the demand for national defense industries can stimulate economic growth by improving the participation of labor force and reducing the unemployment rate. Because defense expenditure in Taiwan can feasibly be between 2.84% 3.2% of the GDP, this study suggests that an annual budget for national defense of 3% of the GDP is an adequate threshold to manifest the determination for national security.

碩士<br>逢甲大學<br>智能製造與工程管理碩士在職學位學程<br>107<br>This study explores how to improve the quality of precision defense parts to improve the quality of parts required for defense supplies. This paper mainly uses two case studies, using risk management and failure mode and effects analysis ( FMEA). FMEA technology is used to identify possible faults and ranking faults, and screening high-scoring projects as high-risk projects. Then, Statistical Process Control ( SPC) and Plato's law are proposed to analyze and understand the process capability further improve the process. The analysis is used to determine the process and the cause of the change, to make permanent improvements to the cause of the anomaly, and to further develop mitigation measures through risk tools to prevent the process from failing again. Stabilize product quality and increase customer satisfaction while reducing costs and scrap rates. In this research paper, two cases are used to verify the research methods of improving quality, which can effectively control risks and optimize the process to achieve quality improvement.
