Diban, Bassel. "Life Estimation of HVDC Cables Subjected to Qualification Test Conditions." Master's thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2019. http://amslaurea.unibo.it/18955/.
Full textAbstract:
The goal of the Master Thesis is estimating the life of HVDC XLPE-insulated cables subjected to the Qualification Tests conditions according to CIGRÉ Technical Brochure 496 and for different values of the coefficients (a) and (b).
During the Electrical Type Test (TT), a series of load cycles (LC) with DC voltage UT=1.85 U0 (rated voltage) are applied in three stages, i.e.:
• 12 cycles lasting 24 hours each with a negative polarity of the applied voltage (12 days).
• 12 cycles lasting 24 hours each with a positive polarity of the applied voltage (12 days).
• 3 cycles lasting 48 hours each with a positive polarity of the applied voltage (6 days).
according to CIGRÉ technical brochure 496, Load Cycles are of two types:
1. A 24-hour Load Cycle consists of 8 hours heating (with steady conductor temperature equal to the rated one during at least the last 2 hours), followed by 16 hours of natural cooling.
2. A 48-hour Load Cycle consists of 24 hours heating (with steady conductor temperature equal to the rated one during at least the last 18 hours), followed by 24 hours of natural cooling.
Results:
-The phenomenon called “Field Inversion” takes place only in the case of high values of “a” and “b” coefficients where the outer part of the insulation is stressed more than the inner part.
-In case of low “a” and “b” that the lower those values are, the more the inner part of the insulation is stressed.
-The life of the cable under the Type Test condition (around 90 days) is three times longer than the Type Test duration (30 days), considering the worst-case which corresponds to low values of “a” and “b”.
-The loss of life in one 48-hour Load Cycle (LC) is twice that in two 24-hour LC (equivalent to the same duration of 48 hours).
-For the same values of a and b, the inversion of the life curve over the insulation thickness in the Pre-Qualification Test is greater than that in the Type Test because of the High Load period in PQ test.

Full textAbstract:
L’évolution des techniques de construction, l’innovation et la prise en compte des normes environnementales poussent les acteurs du domaine de la construction à proposer des matériaux performants et innovants pour la construction des bâtiments et des différentes infrastructures dans le monde. Le matériau béton reste de nos jours le plus utilisé dans le domaine de la construction. La normalisation de la formulation des bétons se base généralement sur des règles prescriptives tenant compte du rapport Eau/Ciment,de la classe de résistance minimale, de la teneur minimale en ciment, teneur minimal en air, etc.Cette méthode prescriptive reste satisfaisante mais doit être complétée par une autre alternative permettant de prendre en compte l’utilisation de composition de béton non mentionnée dans la norme. Ainsi, l’approche performancielle de la durabilité du béton a été proposée.Le principe est de permettre la fabrication d’un béton avec une formule différente de celle de la norme tout en montrant qu’elle est aussi performante que celle de la norme. Cette démonstration de performance passe par l’utilisation des indicateurs de durabilité et des essais performanciels. Les résultats des essais réalisés sur la nouvelle formulation de béton pourront montrer si sa performance est égale ou supérieure à celle de la norme. Le problème se pose sur le nombre d’essais à réaliser afin de garantir la performance du béton. Dans cette thèse, une méthode générique de qualification de la Durabilité/Fiabilité du béton avec un plan d’essais optimisé est proposée pour différents types d’environnement. Cette méthode permet d’estimer la Durabilité/Fiabilité du béton dans son environnement avec une garantie donnée et une statistique des essais à réaliser. Le processus de Wiener est utilisé afin de modéliser les processus de dégradation dans le béton. Une application de la méthode est réalisée pour le cas d’un béton soumis à la carbonatation<br>The evolution of construction techniques, innovation and the environmental consideration standards are driving construction players to offer efficient and innovative materials for the construction of buildings and various infrastructures around the world. The material remains the most widely used in the construction industry today.Concrete standardization is generally based on prescriptive rules that take into account the Water/Cement ratio, the minimum resistance class, the minimum cement content, minimum air content, etc. This prescriptive method remains satisfactory but must be supplemented by another alternative to take into account the use of concrete composition not mentioned in the standard. Thus, the performance-based approach to concrete durability has been proposed. The aimis to allow the manufacture of concrete with a different formula than the standard while showing that it is as efficient as that of the standard. This performance demonstration involves the use of durability indicators and performance tests.The results of the tests carried out on the new concrete formulation will show whether its performance is equal to or above that of the standard. The problem arises in the number of tests to be carried out in order to guarantee the performance of the concrete. In this thesis, a generic method of qualifying the durability/Reliability of concrete with an optimized test plan is proposed for different types of environments. This method allows to estimate the durability/reliability of concrete in its environment with a given guarantee and a statistic of the tests to be carried out. The Wiener process is used to model degradation processes in concrete.An application of the method is carried out for the case of a concrete subject to carbonation

Full textAbstract:
Dans l’industrie de l’avionique, les Générateurs Automatiques de Code (GAC) sont de plus en plus utilisés pour produire des parties du logiciel embarqué. Puisque le code généré fait partie d’un logiciel critique, les standards de sûreté exigent une vérification approfondie du GAC: la qualification. Dans cette thèse en collaboration avec AdaCore, nous cherchons à réduire le coût des activités de test par des méthodes automatiques et efficaces.La première partie de la thèse aborde le sujet du test unitaire qui assure une exhaustivité élevée mais qui est difficile à réaliser pour les GACs. Nous proposons alors une méthode qui garantit le même niveau d’exhaustivité en n’utilisant que des tests d’intégration de mise en œuvre plus facile. Nous proposons tout d’abord une formalisation du langage ATL de définition du GAC dans la théorie des Transformations Algébriques de Graphes. Nous définissons ensuite une traduction de postconditions exprimant l’exhaustivité du test unitaire en des préconditions équivalentes qui permettent à terme de produire des tests d’intégration assurant le même niveau d’exhaustivité. Enfin, nous proposons d’optimiser l’algorithme complexe de notre analyse à l’aide de stratégies de simplification dont nous mesurons expérimentalement l’efficacité.La seconde partie du travail concerne les oracles de tests du GAC, c’est à dire le moyen de valider le code généré par le GAC lors d’un test. Nous proposons un langage de spécification de contraintes textuelles capables d’attester automatiquement de la validité du code généré. Cette approche est déployée expérimentalement à AdaCore pour le projet QGen, un générateur de code Ada/C à partir de Simulink®<br>In the avionics industry, Automatic Code Generators (ACG) are increasingly used to produce parts of the embedded software. Since the generated code is part of critical software, safety standards require a thorough verification of the ACG called qualification. In this thesis in collaboration with AdaCore, we seek to reduce the cost of testing activities by automatic and effective methods.The first part of the thesis addresses the topic of unit testing which ensures exhaustiveness but is difficult to achieve for ACGs. We propose a method that guarantees the same level of exhaustiveness by using only integration tests which are easier to carry out. First, we propose a formalization of the ATL language in which the ACG is defined in the Algebraic Graph Transformation theory. We then define a translation of postconditions expressing the exhaustiveness of unit testing into equivalent preconditions that ultimately support the production of integration tests providing the same level of exhaustiveness. Finally, we propose to optimize the complex algorithm of our analysis using simplification strategies that we assess experimentally.The second part of the work addresses the oracles of ACG tests, i.e. the means of validating the code generated by the ACG during a test. We propose a language for the specification of textual constraints able to automatically check the validity of the generated code. This approach is experimentally deployed at AdaCore for a Simulink® to Ada/C ACG called QGen

Full textAbstract:
Les limitations d’atterrissage des hélicoptères ne sont pas valables dans l'environnement à bord d’un navire. Il n'existe aucune méthodologie approuvée de l'analyse ou de la simulation pour évaluer la compatibilité des hélicoptères-navires et préparer les essais de qualification hélicoptères-navires. Dans ce contexte, le présent travail présente le développement et l'analyse d'une méthodologie hors ligne pour déterminer les limites opérationnelles hélicoptères-navires, SHOLs, en fonction des prédictions d’un modèle de pilote humain. Pour cela, des essais pilotés par des humains sont effectués au simulateur de l’ONERA, Salon de Provence. Sur la base des résultats de ces tests, une méthodologie innovante est validée pour déterminer la limitation de la charge de travail de pilotage, à partir des mesures des déplacements des contrôles d'hélicoptère. En outre, sont validés des modifications innovantes sur un modèle de pilote humain pour pouvoir suivre les trajectoires souhaitées et fournir le même niveau d'activité aux contrôles qu'un véritable pilote. Un ensemble de critères objectifs, correspondant aux marges de sécurité, s'ajoute aux critères subjectifs, correspondant aux limitations de la charge de travail du pilote. Une routine de simulation hors ligne, appelée SholSim, est programmée pour réaliser des simulations avec le modèle pilote et vérifier l'acceptabilité des conditions de vol, selon les critères subjectifs et objectifs. Par conséquent, le présent travail présente la première estimation, dans la littérature, des SHOLs entièrement obtenus à partir d'outils hors ligne, basés uniquement sur les prédictions de modèle pilote<br>Helicopter land-based limitations are not valid in the shipboard environment. There is no analytical or simulated approved methodology for evaluating shipboard helicopter compatibility issues and preparing for at-sea flight tests. In this context, the present work presents the development and analysis of an offline methodology to determine the Ship-Helicopter Operating Limitations, SHOLs, based on pilot model predictions. For this, pilot-in-the-loop simulation trials are performed at the engineering fixed-base simulation facility of ONERA, Salon de Provence. Based on these test results, an innovative methodology is proposed and validated to determine the safe pilot workload limitation, from the measurements of the helicopter control displacements. In addition, it is proposed and validated innovative modifications on a classical pilot model enabling to follow complex predefined desired trajectories and provide the same level of control activity of a real pilot. A set of objective criteria, corresponding to the safety margins, is established in addition to the subjective criteria, corresponding to the safe pilot workload limitations. An offline simulation routine, so-called SholSim, is coded to run all models and verify the acceptability of the flight conditions, according to the subjective and objective criteria. Therefore, the present work presents the first estimation, in the literature, of the SHOLs fully obtained from offline tools, based only on pilot model predictions. The proposed methodology is promising, confirmed by predicting coherent limits when compared to the ones defined by the pilot-in-the-loop simulation trials

The purpose of this study is to quantify the effects of heat flux sensor design and interaction with both test article material choice and geometry on heat flux measurements. It is the public domain component of a larger study documenting issues inherent in heat flux measurement. Direct and indirect heat flux measurement techniques were tested in three thermally diverse model materials at the same Mach 6 test condition, with a total pressure of 1200 psi and total temperature of 1188° R, and compared to the steady analytic Fay-Riddell solution for the stagnation heat flux on a hemisphere. A 1/8 in. fast response Schmidt-Boelter gage and a 1/16 in. Coaxial thermocouple mounted in ¾ in. diameter stainless steel, MACOR, and Graphite hemispheres were chosen as the test articles for this study. An inverse heat flux calculation was performed using the coaxial thermocouple temperature data for comparison with the Schmidt-Boelter gage. Before wind tunnel testing, the model/sensor combinations were tested in a radiative heat flux calibration rig at known static and dynamic heat fluxes from 1 to 20 BTU/ft2/s. During wind tunnel testing, the chosen conditions yielded stagnation point convective heat flux of 15-60 BTU/ft2/s, depending on the stagnation point wall temperature of the model. A computational fluid dynamic study with conjugate heat transfer was also undertaken to further study the complex mechanisms at work. The overall study yielded complex results that prove classic methodology for inverse heat flux calculation and direct heat flux measurement require more knowledge of the thermal environment than a simple match of material properties. Internal and external model geometry, spatial and temporal variations of the heat flux, and the level of thermal contact between the sensor and the test article can all result in a calculated or measured heat flux that is not correct even with a thermally matched sensor. The results of this study supported the conclusions of many previous studies but also examined the complex physics involved across heat flux measurement techniques using new tools, and some general guidance for heat flux sensor design and use, and suggestions for further research are provided.<br>Ph.

The methodology to quantify vegetation from airborne laser scanning (or LiDAR - Light Detection And Ranging) is somehow consolidated, but some concerns are still in the checklist of the scientific community. This thesis aims to bring some of those concerns and try to contribute with some results and insights. Four aspects were studied along this thesis. In the first study, the effect of threshold heights (minimum height and height break) in the quality of the set of metrics was investigated aiming the volume estimation of a eucalyptus plantation. The results indicate that higher threshold height may return a better set of metrics. The impact of threshold height was more evident in young stands and for canopy density metrics. In the second study, the stability of the LiDAR metrics between different LiDAR surveys over the same area was analyzed. This study demonstrated how the selection of stable metrics contributed to generate reliable models between different data sets. According to our results, the height metrics provided the greatest stability when used in the models, specifically the higher percentiles (>50%) and the mode. The third study was designed to evaluate the use of machine learning tools to estimate wood volume of eucalyptus plantations from LiDAR metrics. Rather than being limited to a subset of LiDAR metrics in attempting explain as much variability in a dependent variable as possible, artificial intelligence tools explored the complete metrics set when looking for patterns between LiDAR metrics and stand volume. The fourth and last study has focused upon several highly important forest typologies, and shown that it is possible to differentiate the typologies through their vertical profiles as derived from airborne laser surveys. The size of the sampling cell does have an influence on the behavior observed in analyses of spatial dependence. Each typology has its own specific characteristics, which will need to be taken into consideration in projects targeting monitoring, inventory construction, and mapping based upon airborne laser surveys. The determination of a converged vertical profile could be achieved with data representing 10 % of the area for all typologies, while for some typologies 2 % coverage was sufficient.<br>A metodologia para quantificar vegetação a partir de dados LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) está de certa forma consolidada, porém ainda existem pontos a serem esclarecidos que permanecem na lista da comunidade científica. Quatro aspectos foram estudos nesta tese. No primeiro estudo, foi investigado a influência das alturas de referência (altura mínima e altura de quebra) na qualidade do conjunto de métricas extraído visando estimação do volume de um plantio de eucalipto. Os resultados indicaram que valor mais altos de alturas de referência retornaram um conjunto de métricas melhor. O efeito das alturas de referência foi mais evidente em povoamentos jovens e para as métricas de densidade. No segundo estudo, avaliou-se a estabilidade de métricas LiDAR derivadas para uma mesma área sobrevoada com diferentes configurações de equipamentos e voo. Este estudo apresentou como a seleção de métricas estáveis pode contribuir para a geração de modelos compatíveis com diferentes bases de dados LiDAR. De acordo com os resultados, as métricas de altura foram mais estáveis que as métricas de densidade, com destaque para os percentis acima de 50% e a moda. O terceiro estudo avaliou o uso de máquinas de aprendizado para a estimação do volume em nível de povoamento de plantios de eucalipto a partir de métricas LiDAR. Ao invés de estarem limitados a um pequeno subconjunto de métricas na tentativa de explicar a maior parte possível da variabilidade total dos dados, as técnicas de inteligência artificial permitiram explorar todo o conjunto de dados e detectar padrões que estimaram o volume em nível de povoamento a partir do conjunto de métricas. O quarto e último estudo focou em sete áreas de diferentes tipologias florestais brasileiras, estudando os seus perfis verticais de dossel. O estudo mostrou que é possível diferenciar estas tipologias com base no perfil vertical derivado de levantamentos LiDAR. Foi observado também que o tamanho das parcelas possui diferentes níveis de dependência espacial. Cada tipologia possui características específicas que precisam ser levadas em considerações em projetos de monitoramento, inventário e mapeamento baseado em levantamentos LiDAR. O estudo mostrou que é possível determinar o perfil vertical de dossel a partir da cobertura de 10% da área, chegando a algumas tipologias em apenas 2% da área.

Full textAbstract:
The advent of finite element methods has changed the tire industry's design process over the past three decades. Analyses, previously impractical using analytical methods and physically limited by experimental methods, can now be performed using computational methods. This decreases the cost and time associated with bringing a new design to the marketplace; however some physical testing is still required to validate the models.
The design, fabrication, installation, and operation of a tire, suspension, and chassis test fixture (TiSCTeF) is detailed as part of this study. This fixture will support the validation of effective, parametric finite element models currently under development, as well as the design and testing of suspension and chassis components for the Virginia Tech Formula SAE team. The fixture is designed to use the Formula SAE race car as the test platform. Initially, the fixture is capable of performing static load-deflection and free-rolling tire tests. Provision has been made in the design for incremental upgrades to support cornering tests and additional instrumentation.
An initial load-deflection test has proven that the fixture is capable of creating reproducible data sets. Specific recommendations are made concerning the improvement of data quality for future tests.
This study also presents a process for analyzing existing tire cornering data and eliminating anomalies to improve the effectiveness of normalization techniques found in the literature. The process is shown to collapse tire cornering data, which is partially ill- conditioned, onto master curves that consistently display the effect of inclination angle and tire inflation pressure on tire response.<br>Master of Science

Full textAbstract:
In most real-life environments, mechanical or electronic components are subjected to vibrations.
Some of these components may have to pass qualification tests to verify that they can withstand
the fatigue damage they will encounter during their operational life. In order to conduct a reliable
test, the environmental excitations can be taken as a reference to synthesize the test profile: this
procedure is referred to as “test tailoring”.
Due to cost and feasibility reasons, accelerated qualification tests are usually performed. In this
case, the duration of the original excitation which acts on the component for its entire life-cycle,
typically hundreds or thousands of hours, is reduced. In particular, the “Mission Synthesis”
procedure lets to quantify the induced damage of the environmental vibration through two
functions: the Fatigue Damage Spectrum (FDS) quantifies the fatigue damage, while the Maximum
Response Spectrum (MRS) quantifies the maximum stress. Then, a new random Power Spectral
Density (PSD) can be synthesized, with same amount of induced damage, but a specified duration
in order to conduct accelerated tests.
In this work, the Mission Synthesis procedure is applied in the case of so-called Sine-on-Random
vibrations, i.e. excitations composed of random vibrations superimposed on deterministic
contributions, in the form of sine tones typically due to some rotating parts of the system (e.g.
helicopters, engine-mounted components, …). In fact, a proper test tailoring should not only
preserve the accumulated fatigue damage, but also the “nature” of the excitation (in this case the
sinusoidal components superimposed on the random process) in order to obtain reliable results.
The classic time-domain approach is taken as a reference for the comparison of different methods
for the FDS calculation in presence of Sine-on-Random vibrations. Then, a methodology to
compute a Sine-on-Random specification based on a mission FDS is presented.

Full textAbstract:
Il lavoro di questa tesi è inserito nel contesto del programma di upgrade previsto per l'esperimento ALICE durante lo spegnimento della macchina acceleratrice nel biennio 2019-2020 (Long Shutdown 2).
A partire dal 2021 è prevista in ALICE la registrazione di dati a un rate di interazione maggiore rispetto al passato sia in collisioni pp (fino a 200 kHz) che in eventi Pb-Pb (fino a 50 kHz). Oltre al rinnovo di alcuni detector (tracciatore al silicio e TPC), andranno
potenziati gli attuali sistemi di readout per permettere un readout continuo senza preselezione di eventi.
Nello specifico l'attività svolta per questa tesi è legata al collaudo e allo sviluppo dei nuovi Data Readout Module (DRM2) che andranno a sostituire i precedenti componenti nel rivelatore a tempo di volo (TOF) dell'esperimento.
Per monitorare le funzionalità della scheda è stata sviluppata una GUI (Graphical user interface) che permette la lettura e scrittura di tutti i registri interni della scheda e anche la programmazione del principale ASIC in uso da essa (il chip GBTx che implementa
un ricevitore/trasmettitore a 4.8 Gbit/s). Tale procedura è importante perchè permette al GBTx di programmarsi all'accensione della scheda nella configurazione richiesta.
Poiché la scheda sarà esposta in ambiente radiativo moderatamente ostile (TID = 0.13 krad in 10 anni), sono stati effettuati dei test presso il Centro di Prototerapia di Trento con un fascio di protoni di 100 MeV di energia ad alta intensità su alcuni componenti chiave (FPGA Microsemi Igloo2 e transceiver ottici della AVAGO). Vengono discussi i risultati in termini di resistenza alla dose totale assorbita, di sezione d'urto per Single
Event Upset (SEU) e Latchup (SEL).
Al fine di sviluppare un sistema di test-bench compatto della scheda è stata infine sviluppata un'applicazione per consentire il collegamento via LAN attraverso protocollo UDP per monitorare i dati ricevuti attraverso il link GBTx dalla DRM2 con una scheda di

L’Ingénierie Dirigée par les Modèles place les modèles au coeur du cycle de développement logiciel. Ces modèles évoluent par le biais de diverses transformations. Dans cette thèse nous nous sommes intéressés à la validation de ces transformations de modèles par le test, et en particulier à l’oracle de ce test. Nous proposons deux approches pour assister le testeur dans la création de ces oracles. Tout d’abord, nous offrons une assistance passive en fournissant au testeur une nouvelle fonction d’oracle. Cette dernière lui permet de créer des oracles qui ne contrôlent qu’une partie des modèles obtenus. Nous avons défini la notion de verdict partiel, explicité les situations où un verdict partiel est plus avantageux et proposé un protocole global du test de transformations dans ce contexte. Nous avons mis en oeuvre cette première proposition dans un outillage avec lequel nous l’avons expérimentée. Ensuite, nous offrons au testeur une assistance active en étudiant la qualité d’un ensemble d’oracles. Nous considérons la qualité d’un ensemble d’oracles selon sa capacité à détecter des fautes dans la transformation sous test. Nous proposons une méthode qui corrige en partie les insuffisances de l’analyse de mutation, utilisée dans ce contexte ; nous mesurons la couverture du méta-modèle de sortie par l’ensemble d’oracles considéré. Nous montrons que notre approche est indépendante du langage utilisé pour la mise en oeuvre de la transformation sous test, et fournit au testeur des informations pour l’amélioration des oracles. Nous avons défini une démarche pour mesurer la couverture et qualifier des oracles. Nous avons développé un outil pour expérimenter et valider notre proposition<br>With Model Driven Engineering models are the heart of software development. These models evolve through transformations. In this thesis our interest was the validation for these model transformations by testing, and more precisely the test oracles. We propose two approaches to assist the tester to create these oracles. With the first approach this assistance is passive; we provide the tester with a new oracle function. The test oracles created with this new oracle function control only part of the model produced by the transformation under test. We defined the notion of partial verdict, described the situations where having a partial verdict is beneficial for the tester and how to test a transformation in this context. We developed a tool implementing this proposal, and ran experiments with it. With the second approach, we provide a more active assistance about test oracles’ quality. We study the quality of a set of model transformation test oracles. We consider that the quality of a set of oracles is linked to its ability to detect faults in the transformation under test. We show the limits of mutation analysis which is used for this purpose, then we propose a new approach that corrects part of these drawbacks. We measure the coverage of the output meta-model by the set of oracles we consider. Our approach does not depend on the language used for the transformation under test’s implementation. It also provides the tester with hints on how to improve her oracles. We defined a process to evaluate meta-model coverage and qualify test oracles. We developed a tool implementing our approach to validate it through experimentations

Full textAbstract:
L’intégration de l’électronique dans des environnements sévères d’un point de vue électromagnétique a entraîné en contrepartie l’apparition de problèmes de compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) entre les différents systèmes. Afin d’atteindre un niveau de performance satisfaisant, des tests de sécurité et de certification sont nécessaires. Ces travaux de thèse, réalisés dans le cadre du projet SIMUCEDO (SIMUlation CEM basée sur la norme DO-160), contribuent à la modélisation du test de qualification "Bulk Current Injection" (BCI). Ce test, abordé dans la section 20 dans la norme DO-160 dédiée à l’aéronautique, est désormais obligatoire pour une très grande gamme d’équipements aéronautiques. Parmi les essais de qualification, le test BCI est l’un des plus contraignants et consommateurs du temps. Sa modélisation assure un gain de temps, et une meilleure maîtrise des paramètres qui influencent le passage des tests CEM. La modélisation du test a été décomposée en deux parties : l’équipement sous test (EST) d’une part, et la pince d’injection avec les câbles d’autre part. Dans cette thèse, seul l’EST est pris en compte. Une modélisation "boîte grise" a été proposée en associant un modèle "boîte noire" avec un modèle "extensif". Le modèle boîte noire s’appuie sur la mesure des impédances standards. Son identification se fait avec un modèle en pi. Le modèle extensif permet d’étudier plusieurs configurations de l’EST en ajustant les paramètres physiques. L’assemblage des deux modèles en un modèle boîte grise a été validé sur un convertisseur analogique-numérique (CAN). Une autre approche dénommée approche modale en fonction du mode commun (MC) et du mode différentiel (MD) a été proposée. Elle se base sur les impédances modales du système sous test. Des PCB spécifiques ont été conçus pour valider les équations développées. Une investigation est menée pour définir rigoureusement les impédances modales. Nous avons démontré qu’il y a une divergence entre deux définitions de l’impédance de MC dans la littérature. Ainsi, la conversion de mode (ou rapport Longitudinal Conversion Loss : LCL) a été quantifiée grâce à ces équations. Pour finir, le modèle a été étendu à N-entrées pour représenter un EST de complexité industrielle. Le modèle de l’EST est ensuite associé avec celui de la pince et des câbles travaux réalisés au G2ELAB. Des mesures expérimentales ont été faites pour valider le modèle complet. D’après ces mesures, le courant de MC est impacté par la mise en œuvre des câbles ainsi que celle de l’EST. Il a été montré que la connexion du blindage au plan de masse est le paramètre le plus impactant sur la distribution du courant de MC<br>Electronic equipments intended to be integrated in aircrafts are subjected to normative requirements. EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) qualification tests became one of the mandatory requirements. This PhD thesis, carried out within the framework of the SIMUCEDO project (SIMulation CEM based on the DO-160 standard), contributes to the modeling of the Bulk Current Injection (BCI) qualification test. Concept, detailed in section 20 in the DO-160 standard, is to generate a noise current via cables using probe injection, then monitor EUT satisfactorily during test. Among the qualification tests, the BCI test is one of the most constraining and time consuming. Thus, its modeling ensures a saving of time, and a better control of the parameters which influence the success of the equipment under test. The modeling of the test was split in two parts : the equipment under test (EUT) on one hand, and the injection probe with the cables on the other hand. This thesis focuses on the EUT modeling. A "gray box" modeling was proposed by associating the "black box" model with the "extensive" model. The gray box is based on the measurement of standard impedances. Its identification is done with a "pi" model. The model, having the advantage of taking into account several configurations of the EUT, has been validated on an analog to digital converter (ADC). Another approach called modal, in function of common mode and differential mode, has been proposed. It takes into account the mode conversion when the EUT is asymmetrical. Specific PCBs were designed to validate the developed equations. An investigation was carried out to rigorously define the modal impedances, in particular the common mode (CM) impedance. We have shown that there is a discrepancy between two definitions of CM impedance in the literature. Furthermore, the mode conversion ratio (or the Longitudinal Conversion Loss : LCL) was quantified using analytical equations based on the modal approach. An N-input model has been extended to include industrial complexity. The EUT model is combined with the clamp and the cables model (made by the G2ELAB laboratory). Experimental measurements have been made to validate the combined model. According to these measurements, the CM current is influenced by the setup of the cables as well as the EUT. It has been shown that the connection of the shield to the ground plane is the most influent parameter on the CM current distribution

L'augmentation de la complexité des systèmes hétérogènes a conduit à l'apparition d'une nouvelle méthode de conception et de validation. Cette approche qui s'appuie sur un flot de conception descendant s'inspire des méthodes utilisées dans le domaine numérique. Dans cette thèse, nous avons développé une approche permettant de qualifier le plan de vérification utilisé lors de la validation de conception et d'améliorer le test matériel des systèmes AMS&RF. L'originalité de notre approche est d'utiliser une description comportementale du système pour la qualification et la génération des stimuli de test. En effet, les méthodes de test actuelles utilisant les descriptions niveau composant ne sont pas adaptées au test de systèmes complexes. En utilisant ce concept, au cours de cette thèse la plateforme PLASMA, PLAteforme pour la qualification et la génération de stimuli pour test de Systèmes Mixtes et Analogiques, a été développée. Cette plateforme est en particulier conçue pour le test des systèmes AMS&RF. PLASMA a été validée sur un émetteur/récepteur W-CDMA intégré conçu par ST Microelectronics.

Full textAbstract:
Le Grand collisionneur de hadrons (LHC), le plus grand et le plus puissant au monde, a démarré en 2008 et constitue la dernière étape du complexe des accélérateurs du CERN. Le LHC consiste en un anneau de 27 kilomètres d'aimants supraconducteurs permettant d'accélérer deux faisceaux jusqu'à 7 TeV avant de les faire entrer en collision à 14 TeV dans l'une des cinq expériences de contrôle du résultat de la collision. Le LHC a notamment permis la découverte du boson de Higgs et d'autres particules baryoniques prédites par le modèle standard. L'environnement de rayonnement du LHC et de ses lignes d'injection est composé de différentes particules sur un large spectre d'énergies, du niveau GeV jusqu'au niveau meV (par exemple le neutron thermique). L'équipement électronique fonctionnant dans un environnement de rayonnement aussi rude, principalement basé sur des composants commerciaux prêts à l'emploi (COTS), peut subir des défaillances induites par des effets de rayonnement. La criticité de l'équipement peut être très élevée, dans le meilleur des cas, la défaillance d'un système de contrôle peut conduire à une chute du faisceau, ce qui peut drastiquement rendre le faisceau disponible pour la science et dans le pire des cas, la défaillance d'un système de sécurité peut conduire à la destruction d'une partie de la machine. La nouvelle mise à niveau du LHC prévue pour 2025, le LHC à haute luminosité (HL-LHC) atteindra une luminosité annuelle cinq fois supérieure à celle de la version actuelle du LHC. Par conséquent, les niveaux de rayonnement générés par le fonctionnement de la machine vont également augmenter considérablement. Avec des niveaux de rayonnement aussi élevés, un nombre important de systèmes commerciaux seront exposés à des niveaux de rayonnement auxquels ils ne peuvent résister. Cela impliquera soit de concevoir des systèmes plus robustes et tolérants à base de COTS, soit de remplacer préventivement les systèmes avant leur fin de vie utile. Ainsi, alors qu'au cours des années précédentes, les effets singuliers (EEI) étaient la principale cause de défaillance, à l'avenir, l'effet cumulatif du rayonnement deviendra également une préoccupation majeure. Bien qu'un effort considérable ait été fait dans le passé sur le processus de qualification contre les défaillances induites par les SEE, le processus de qualification pour les effets cumulatifs du rayonnement est resté pratiquement inchangé. L'objectif de ces travaux était donc d'étudier comment la Radiation Hardness Assurance (RHA) du CERN pourrait être améliorée pour répondre à ce nouveau défi et s'assurer qu'aucune défaillance de système n'aura d'impact sur les opérations du LHC. Plusieurs activités ont été menées à cet effet : (i) l'étude des particularités de l'environnement radiatif du LHC et de son impact sur les composants et les systèmes qui y sont exposés, (ii) l'étude de l'adéquation des méthodes de qualification actuelles et le développement d'approches adaptées aux besoins du CERN et (iii) l'étude des méthodes fiables pour estimer la durée de vie des systèmes<br>The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the largest and most powerful in the world, started in 2008 and is the last stage of CERN's accelerator complex. The LHC consists in a 27-kilometer ring of superconducting magnets allowing to accelerate two beams up to 7 TeV before colliding them at 14 TeV in one of the five experiments monitoring the result of the collision. The LHC allowed notably the discovery of the Higgs boson and other baryonic particles predicted by the standard model. The radiation environment of the LHC and its injection lines is composed of different particles over a large spectrum of energies, from GeV level down to meV level (e.g. thermal neutron). The electronic equipment operating in such a harsh radiation environment, mostly based on Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) components, can experience failures induced by radiation effects. The criticality of the equipment can be very high, in the best case, the failure of a control system can lead to a beam dump, which can drastically the availability of the beam for science and in the worst case, the failure of a safety system can lead to the destruction of part of the machine. The new upgrade of the LHC planned for 2025, the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will achieve an annual luminosity five time higher than the current version of the LHC. Consequently, the levels of the radiation generated by the operation of the machine will also drastically increase. With such high radiation levels, a significant number of COTS-based systems will be exposed to radiation levels they cannot withstand. This will imply to either design more robust tolerant COTS-based systems and/or substitute preventively systems before their end of life. Thus, while in the previous years the Single Event Effects (SEEs) where the dominant cause of failure, in the future, cumulative radiation effect will as well become a major preoccupation. While a huge effort has been done in the past on the qualification process against SEE-induced failures, the qualification process for cumulative radiation effects, remained mostly unchanged. The aim of this work was, therefore, to investigate how the CERN’s Radiation Hardness Assurance (RHA) could be improved to respond to this new challenge and ensure that no system failures will impact the LHC operations. This involved several activities; (i) the study of the particularities of the LHC radiative environment and its impact on the components and systems exposed to it, (ii) the study of the suitability of current qualification methods and the development of approaches adapted to CERN’s needs and (iii) the study of reliable system lifetime estimation methods

Esta dissertação realiza um exame da devoção à Maria na cultura brasileira, levando em consideração os cânticos, a partir dos quais focalizam-se aspectos dos epítetos que prevalecem nesses textos. Trata-se de um estudo baseado nos critérios de análises interpretativas, que buscam oferecer subsídios para o entendimento dos hinos marianos na atualidade, visto que a bibliografia que trata do assunto é muito moderada. A análise é feita classificando os tipos dos epítetos identificados. A partir da investigação, é possível perceber que o conceito de uma Maria libertadora é bastante exposto no desenvolvimento dos hinos, já que verificamos uma grande parcela de poemas com o sentido libertador. Maria é indicada como uma verdadeira protetora dos povos; os autores dos cantos pesquisados desenvolveram seus trabalhos colocando em evidência uma santa que está mais próxima dos problemas enfrentados pela sociedade atual. As dificuldades que os humildes enfrentam atualmente são evidentemente lembradas e, na maioria das vezes, focalizadas nos textos mariais com o auxílio dos epítetos apresentados.<br>This dissertation presents an examination of the devotion to Mary in the Brazilian culture, by analyzing aspects of epithets that prevail on songs of praise. This study is based on the criteria of interpretative analysis aimed at contributing to the understanding of Marian hymns of the present, as not many researches on her epithets can be found in scientific literature. The analysis is done through the classification of the types of epithets identified. From this investigation, it is possible to realize that the concept of a liberating Mary is greatly exposed in the hymns created along the time, as a great amount of poems of a liberating sense were verified. Mary is quoted as a real protector of the people in the songs analyzed, and the authors of these songs of praise refer to a saint who is closer to current problems faced by society. The epithets make clear that difficulties that the humble people face at the present are obviously remembered and mostly focused in the Marian texts with the aid of the epithets presented.

Full textAbstract:
In the aviation industry, the use of software development tools is not as easily adopted as in other industries. Due to the catastrophic consequences of software errors in airborne systems, software development processes has rigorous requirements. One of these requirements is that a code standard must be followed. Code standards are used to exclude code constructions which could result in unwanted behaviours. The process of manually ensuring a specific code standard can be costly. This process could be automated by a tool for static code analysis, however, this requires a formal qualification. This thesis evaluates the process of qualifying a tool for static code analysis in accordance with the requirements of the major aviation authorities EASA and FAA. To describe the qualification process, a literature study was conducted. To further explain how an existing tool could be put through the qualification process, a case study of the existing tool Parasoft C/C++ test was conducted. The results of the literature study show what processes must be completed in order to qualify a static code analysis tool. Importantly, the study shows that no requirements are put on the development process of the tool. This was an important takeaway as it meant that an existing tool could be qualified without any additional data from the developer of the tool. The case study of Parasoft C/C++ test showed how the tool could be configured and verified to analyze code in accordance with a small set of code rules. Furthermore, three documents including qualification data were produced showing how the qualification process should be documented in order to communicate the process to an authority. The results of the thesis do not provide the full picture of how a tool could be qualified as the software, in which the tool is used, is considerations the are specific to the software the tool is used to develop still need to be taken into consideration. The thesis does, however, provide guidance on the majority of the applicable requirements. Future research could be done to provide the complete picture of the qualification process, as well as how the process would look like for other types of tools.<br>Inom flygindustrin är användandet av olika programmeringsverktyg inte lika självklart som inom andra industrier. På grund av de katastrofala konsekvenser som fel i mjukvaran i ett flygplan kan resultera i finns det rigorösa krav på mjukvaruutvecklingsprocessen. Ett av dessa krav är att en viss kodstandard måste upprätthållas. Kodstandarder används för att exkludera vissa strukturer i kod som kan leda till oönskat beteende. Upprätthållandet av en viss kodstandard är en långdragen process att genomföra manuellt, och kan därför automatiseras med hjälp av ett statiskt kodanalysverktyg. För att kunna använda ett sådant verktyg behövs däremot en formell verktygskvalificering. I denna uppsats kommer kvalificeringsprocessen av ett verktyg för statisk kodanalys att evalueras enligt de krav som de två stora flygmyndigheterna EASA och FAA ställer. För att förklara processen av att kvalificera ett sådant verktyg gjordes en litteraturstudie följt av en fallstudie av det existerande verktyget Parasoft C/C++ test. Resultaten av litteraturstudien beskriver de olika processerna som måste genomföras för att kvalificera ett statiskt kodanalysverktyg. Noterbart är att resultaten visar att inga krav ställs på utvecklingsprocessen av verktyget själv. Detta betyder att ett existerande kommersiellt verktyg kan kvalificeras utan att verktygsutvecklarna själva behöver bidra med extra information. Fallstudien visade hur verktyget Parasoft C/C++ test kan konfigureras och verifieras att följa en viss kodstandard. Vidare resulterade fallstudien i utkast av de nödvändiga dokumenten som behöver produceras för att kommunicera kvalificeringsprocessen till en myndighet. De resultat som presenteras i denna uppsats är i sig inte tillräckliga för beskriva hela kvalificeringsprocessen. Ytterligare överväganden som är specifika till den mjukvaran som verktyget ska användas till att utveckla måste göras för att en komplett kvalificering ska kunna genomföras. Uppsatsen bidrar däremot med riktlinjer och vägledning av majoriteten av de processerna som behöver genomföras. Ytterligare forskning kan göras för att bidra med den kompletta bilden av verktygskvalificering av ett statiskt kodanalysverktyg, samt hur kvalificering kan göras av andra typer av verktyg.

Para tanto, foi criado um local, na forma de laboratório, denominado Unidade de Capacitação Tecnológica, composto por sistemas fotovoltaicos isolados e conectados à rede e por duas minirredes híbridas de geração de energia (solar, diesel e rede elétrica), com sistemas de monitoramento próprios, que permitem a avaliação de diferentes estratégias de operação de sistemas fotovoltaicos. Tal Unidade foi concebida sob uma perspectiva didática, para possibilitar a apropriação das habilidades técnicas e conhecimentos tecnológicos necessários para: a) atuar nas diversas ocupações demandadas pelo setor (instaladores, projetistas e engenheiros); b) desenvolver pesquisas na área (especializações, mestrados e doutorados); e c) prestar suporte para iniciativas interessadas na aplicação da tecnologia fotovoltaica (ensaios, consultorias e treinamentos). A apresentação da Unidade conta com a descrição dos materiais, ferramentas, instrumentos e procedimentos utilizados para a acreditação dos laboratórios que a compõem, permitindo demonstrar a confiabilidade, credibilidade e universalidade de seus processos, especialmente no que se refere à realização de ensaios de conformidade em equipamentos fotovoltaicos. O trabalho também investiga iniciativas de capacitação que estão sendo realizadas em outras universidades, escolas técnicas e iniciativa privada, para compreender o perfil dos profissionais atuantes no mercado. A ideia é demonstrar o quanto é fundamental a criação de uma forma de certificação ou uma política instrutiva para a capacitação dos profissionais de sistemas fotovoltaicos, de forma a promover as boas práticas e inibir aquelas que comprometam a credibilidade da tecnologia. Esta tese demonstra que laboratórios capacitados, como a Unidade descrita neste trabalho, apresentam os elementos necessários para produção e divulgação de conhecimentos, desenvolvimento de produtos, prestação de serviços e treinamento de profissionais requeridos para a expansão do setor, podendo colaborar para a consolidação da energia fotovoltaica como uma alternativa eficaz e confiável no cenário energético brasileiro.<br>This work uses the experience of the Photovoltaic Systems Laboratory of the Institute for Energy and Environment of the University of São Paulo (LSF-IEE-USP) to propose effective ways for the qualification of human resources within laboratories with recognized quality, in order to increase the amount of experts.

Selon la réglementation en vigueur, ce sont les enseignants qui sont chargés d’effectuer l’évaluation scolaire. L’enquête exploratoire conduit à s’intéresser au jugement des enseignants : la construction des avis scolaire des professeurs ne repose pas sur la simple application de techniques d’évaluation, mais elle met en œuvre des méthodes ordinaires de jugement. Une des propriétés du jugement enseignant est d’être constamment soumis à la possibilité d’une critique, susceptible de provenir de diverses catégories d’individus. Cette recherche consiste à analyser ce qui, dans l’activité scolaire, permet aux enseignants de se prémunir contre la critique, de l’anticiper, de la maîtriser.L’étude de la littérature scientifique montre que la question du jugement enseignant se constitue en problème scientifique au cours du XXe siècle, à partir du constat empirique de ses défaillances. Les recherches successives s’émancipent peu à peu du regard normatif pour construire des modèles explicatifs de l’évaluation scolaire comme phénomène social, en puisant dans les ressources des sciences sociales. Un mouvement plus récent, dans la continuité duquel ce travail s’insère, adopte une posture plus compréhensive, en laissant une large place à la subjectivité des professeurs. Ces derniers construisant leur jugement lors des interactions vécues dans le cadre de leur travail ordinaire, deux courants sociologiques sont convoqués : premièrement, la sociologie pragmatique, dont un des concepts centraux, l’épreuve, permet de décrire et d’analyser le travail de qualification des élèves dans le cadre pédagogique ; deuxièmement, l’interactionnisme symbolique d’Erving Goffman. Le recueil des données qualitatives s’inspire des méthodes ethnographiques. Le travail de jugement de onze enseignants de collège de l’agglomération de Lille a été observé et a fait l’objet d’entretiens conduisant à l’explicitation des pratiques. L’analyse des données privilégie un raisonnement inductif fondé sur la méthode de théorisation ancrée.Les résultats se déclinent selon deux idées principales. Premièrement, le fait que les élèves sont qualifiés dans le cadre d’épreuves, au sens de la sociologie pragmatique, c’est-à-dire d’interactions visant à un accord sur la qualification d’un être humain ou d’un objet. Les épreuves sont conduites en référence à des principes de justice et par l’engagement dans la situation d’objets ou d’individus qui peuvent être requalifiés au cours de l’épreuve. La qualification des élèves demande donc, de la part du professeur, la constitution d’un dispositif assez solide, sur lequel s’appuyer lors des épreuves, s’il veut garantir la légitimité de son jugement. Deuxièmement, parmi toutes les épreuves de qualification des élèves, l’évaluation pratiquée par les professeurs est une tentative d’industrialisation du jugement ordinaire des enseignants. L’évaluation scolaire est identifiée à un ensemble spécifique d’épreuves difficiles à contester sans remettre en cause une construction théorique et pratique, à la fois cohérente et robuste. En ceci, les épreuves évaluatives constituent un point d’appui incontournable pour la conduite du travail enseignant. Elles définissent des procédures, proposent des étalons de valeur, des modèles de référence, un répertoire d’actions, une grammaire professionnelle, qui se déploient dans un monde tourné vers l’efficacité, le rendement, la mesure, l’objectivité. Cette attraction industrielle peut toutefois entraver la conduite ordinaire du jugement enseignant, en délégitimant d’autres moyens dont il dispose pour connaître ses élèves et construire les situations d’apprentissage<br>In a meritocratic society, which reserves its most desirable positions for its most deserving individuals, school assessment occupies a central position. By its function of selection, assessment leads indeed to the distribution of individuals over different specialisations and, in fine, to their various professional statuses. In line with current legislation, it is teachers who are responsible for carrying out school assessment. The exploratory enquiry leads us to focus on teacher judgement: the construction of teachers’ educational judgements is not based on the simple application of evaluation techniques but entails ordinary means of judgement. One of the aspects of teacher judgement is its being constantly subjected to the possibility of criticism, coming from various categories of individuals. This research consists in an analysis of what, within school activity, enables teachers to arm themselves against criticism, to anticipate it and to manage it.A study of the scientific literature shows that the question of teacher judgement emerges as a scientific problem during the 20th century, out of an empirical observation of its weaknesses. Successive research has standardised little by little from the normative view to construct explanatory models of educational assessment as a social phenomenon, by exploiting the resources of the social sciences. A more recent movement, the pursuit of which this work takes up, adopts a more overall posture, leaving a wide margin for the subjectivity of teachers. The latter, building up their judgement during interaction experienced in the framework of their day-to-day work, two sociological currents are at play: firstly, pragmatic sociology, of which one of the central concepts, the test, allows for the description and analysis of the work of defining students within the teaching framework; secondly the symbolic interactionism of Erving Goffman.The gathering of qualitative data is inspired by ethnographic methods. The work of judgement of 11 junior secondary school teachers from the Lille metropolitan area was observed and discussed in interviews leading to exploration of practices. The analysis of data favours inductive reasoning based on the grounded theory method.Results are ordered according to two main ideas: Firstly, the fact that the students are qualified within in the framework of tests, in the pragmatic sociological sense of the word, that is to say interactions aimed at an agreement on the qualification of the human being or object. The tests are conducted with reference to principles of justice and by engaging objects or individuals in the situation that can be requalified during the test. The qualification of students demands therefore, on a teacher’s part, the constitution of a sufficiently strong system on which to rely during tests, if he or she wishes to guarantee the legitimacy of his/her judgment.Secondly, among all the tests for qualifying students, the assessment carried out by teachers is an attempt to industrialise their ordinary judgment. School assessment is made up of an assortment of specific tests which are difficult to challenge without disturbing a theoretical and practical construct that is both coherent and robust. In this way, assessment tests constitute an unavoidable means for the organising of teaching. These tests define procedures, offer scales of value, models of reference, a database of actions, a professional grammar, which is developed in a world oriented towards efficiency, productivity, measurement, objectivity. This attraction to an industrialised system can however block the ordinary function of judgment of the teacher, while de-legitimizing other means at his/her disposal to know his/her student and to construct learning situations

L'objectif de cette étude est d'analyser les aptitudes cognitives et la personnalité d'opérateurs reconnus pour leurs compétences ("experts métiers" et "chargés de projets") dans le domaine de l'industrie automobile. Elle a ainsi permis d'identifier des facteurs pouvant influencer le développement de ces deux types d'expériences. Dans cette perspective, deux tests: le "F-JAS", Fleishman Job Analysis Survey, et le "MBTI", Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, ont été proposés à 18 experts métiers et 9 chargés de projets. Ces derniers ont également été interviewés quant à leur activité professionnelle. Les résultats des analyses sémantiques des discours et ceux relatifs au F-JAS, ont mis en évidence des différences significatives entre ces deux groupes pour certaines aptitudes cognitives, et le contexte dans lequel ils évoluent. Par contre, les analyses portant sur les données issues du MBTI ne permettent pas de conclure à l'existence d'une dimension de personnalité liée à l'expertise. Ces résultats ont ensuite été affinés à l'aide d'analyses géométriques des données, qui ont permis d'établir certains profils type. Des préconisations ont enfin été proposées pour la gestion de carrière des opératuers engagés dans la voie de l'expertise technique. Des pistes de formation ont également été fournies, elles visent à accompagner la progression professionnelle de cette population par la transmission de savoirs et savoir-faire spécifiques<br>The aim of this study is an analyze of operators' cognitive skills and characters. They have been identified by their abilities ("expert trades" and "project managers") in the field of the car industry. Indeed, factors are implied in the development of these two types of jobs. In this way, two tests: the "F-JAS, Fleishman Job Analysis Survey, and the "MBTI", Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, were carried to 18 expert trades and 9 project managers. These subjects were also interviewed about their professional activity. On one hand, the conceptual semantics and the F-JAS analysis results underlined significant differences between these two groups, regarding some cognitive skills and context elements. On the other hand, the character field about the MBTI analyse, did not show any dimension linked with the expertise. Then, these results have been refined with data geometric analysis. Some model profiles have been established. Lastly, some recommendations have been proposed for the expert trades' career management. Several training activities were also given; they aim to support the expert trades' professional growth through the transmission of their own specific knowledge and know-how

Face aux impératifs de compétitivité, les métiers se transforment. La réussite de ces changements repose pour une part sur la mobilisation du personnel (souvent altérée par ces mutations) et une de ses conséquences : l'engagement dans le travail. L'objet de cette thèse est donc la recherche d'un mode d'amélioration de l'engagement, à partir de l'étude du cas des Conseillers en Assurance d'une mutuelle française. Un projet a été conçu pour régénérer les connaissances du métier. Les conseillers ont été invités à réfléchir en groupe sur leur métier. L'analyse des discours a permis de construire un Référentiel-métier qui leur a été restitué. Les effets du projet ont été évalués en fonction des réponse à un questionnaire administré sur trois périodes. Les résultats conduisent à défendre la thèse selon laquelle l'amélioration de l'engagement réclame une double action : favoriser la réflexion des acteurs sur le métier, et définir les caractéristiques de leur participation au projet.

O trabalhador contemporâneo sofre exigências para alcançar níveis cada vez mais elevados em sua formação e desenvolvimento profissional, segundo o discurso de que isso lhe servirá de garantia para ser bem sucedido. Porém não há mais relação direta entre educação profissional e trabalho, e os compromissos feitos com sua própria carreira parecem ser de curto prazo, tendo implicações inclusive nas formas identitárias do trabalhador. Vive-se sob o reinado das competências, paradigma organizador do mundo do trabalho, que exige do profissional não apenas conhecimentos teóricos e técnicos, definidos como corpo de saberes, mas também a capacidade de mobilizá-los e colocá-los em prática, dependendo da demanda da situação. O objetivo deste estudo é investigar a formação do orientador profissional em termos de qualificação e indicadores de competências, sob as perspectivas de formadores e profissionais da área. Foi utilizado um questionário com questões abertas, com pequenas adaptações na redação para que atendesse aos dois grupos de participantes. A análise dos dados se deu por meio da análise de conteúdo de Bardin, sendo as respostas agrupadas em eixos temáticos e categorias, de acordo com a semelhança entre os conteúdos levantados. Os resultados apontam alguns dos saberes teórico-técnicos e indicadores de competências mais valorizados na formação do orientador profissional, tanto por profissionais quanto por formadores. O eixo temático citado como mais importante na formação deste profissional foi o que se refere a conhecimentos teóricos e técnicos, e o menos citado por ambos os grupos foi o tema que trata das competências relacionais com o cliente. Também foram acessadas as definições de competência por parte dos participantes, sendo que a mais amplamente adotada pelos dois grupos foi a que se refere a ter conhecimentos e habilidades que devem ser mobilizados para realizar uma tarefa (saber-fazer). A partir da literatura levantada para a construção deste estudo e dos resultados obtidos, vai-se além da discussão da formação do orientador, abrindo-se também a discussão sobre as implicações que a lógica das competências pode ter sobre suas formas identitárias enquanto profissional.<br>The contemporany worker experiences the pressure to reach higher levels for formation and professional development, according to the idea that it will guarantee success. However there\"s no more straight connection between professional education and work, and the compromises assumed for his career seem to be for short term, with implications even at worker\"s identity. One live under competencies\"s paradigm, that organizes the world of work and demands from the professional not only theoretical and technical knowledges, defined as body of knowledges, but also the capacity to mobilize them and put them in practice, depending on what the situation demands. The aim of this study is to investigate the career counselor formation in terms of qualification and competencies indicators, according to trainers and professionals of this area. A questionnaire with open questions was used, with some writing adaptations to attend both groups of participants. Data analysis was made through the content analysis of Bardin, with responses grouped into themes and categories, according to the similarity between the contents collected. Results highlights some of the theoretical and technical knowledges and competencies indicators most valued at career counselor formation, both by professionals and trainers. The theme mentioned as most important at this formation was the one that refers to theoretical and technical knowledges, and the least mentioned by both groups was the one about relational competencies between the guider and his client. Competencies definitions were also accessed from the participants, and the most widely adopted by both groups was having knowledgements and skills that must be mobilized to acomplish a task (know-how). Considering reviewed literature that helped to build this study, and also the obtained results, one goes beyond a discussion about career counselor formation, opening the discussion about what competencies logic can imply to the worker identity, as a professional.

O objetivo do presente estudo é reavaliar o conceito de competências sob o ponto de vista das teorias que o explicam e a prática de sua utilização nas empresas. Partindo de uma revisão histórica do conceito, foi constatada significativa diversidade de nomes e dos conteúdos que representam. Neste campo há uma situação semelhante à Torre de Babel. Os discursos não são decodificados da mesma forma pelo locutor e pelo ouvinte. Para suportar esta análise, foi realizado um trabalho empírico de comparação entre perfis de competências propostos pelas empresas e os perfis profissionais sugeridos por especialistas a partir de suas experiências com este campo de estudo. Apesar da Torre de Babel há consistência entre as competências propostas pelos especialistas e aquelas praticadas pelas empresas.<br>The aim of the present study is the reassessment of the concept of competence by matching its theoretical evolution with the professional practice which was developed to manage human resources capabilities. Setting out from the historical evolution it was easy to see the wide span of meanings, names and contents attributed to competence, from the very beginning of the personnel management. Through an oversight glance on it one has the impression of a kind o Babel Tower. Every new author who scans that concept finds a new side in it. The discourses about competence have not been decoded in the same way by the speaker and the listener. To support the analysis here carried out, an empirical investigation was planned and carried out. In it competence profiles as produced by enterprises were matched with profiles proposed by experts and researchers. Notwithstanding the evidences of a Babel Tower some consistency was found between the practice and the conceptual proposals.

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo geral compreender o trabalho do professor iniciante de FLE no contexto dos cursos Extracurriculares de francês da FFLCH- USP. Esse estudo é realizado por meio de análises de textos presentes na situação de trabalho e produzidos por esse professor antes e depois de suas aulas. Nosso interesse é estudar o papel das prescrições/orientações no trabalho desse professor, procurando entender como elas afetam seu trabalho. Pretendemos, também, investigar a atividade do professor a partir do que ele diz sobre seu próprio trabalho e sobre si mesmo enquanto professor nesse contexto. Consideramos, ao lado de Clot (1999) que, para entender o trabalho do professor, deve-se levar em conta o que é pedido para esse trabalhador realizar, o que ele de fato realizou e também o que queria ter realizado, mas que por algum motivo não realizou. Para atingir nossos objetivos, investigamos três textos: i) o documento que orienta o trabalho do professor do contexto estudado; ii) diários de aulas escritos, por esse professor, após suas aulas e iii) textos de entrevistas de instrução ao sósia com o professor sobre seu trabalho. O quadro teórico maior que sustenta esta pesquisa é o do interacionismo social, desenvolvido por Vygotski (1927-2009) e duas de suas vertentes: o interacionismo sociodiscursivo (ISD) (BRONCKART, 1999/2009, 2006, 2008), utilizado como embasamento teórico para a compreensão do trabalho do professor como uma forma de agir e para a análise de todos os textos, fornecendo um modelo de análise textual. Paralelamente aos pressupostos teóricos do ISD, apoiamo-nos também em alguns conceitos das vertentes das ciências do trabalho, mais precisamente, a ergonomia da atividade (AMIGUES, 2002; 2004; 2013; SAUJAT, 2004) e a clínica da atividade (CLOT, 1999, 2001; FAÏTA, 2002, 2004), linhas teóricas que propõem alguns procedimentos que possibilitam a criação de diálogos sobre a atividade de trabalho, como o método de intervenção de instrução ao sósia, utilizado neste estudo. Os resultados de nossas análises revelam alguns recursos intermediários elaborados pelo professor iniciante para superar os obstáculos, em seu contexto de trabalho, no processo de transição entre a vida de aluno e a vida de professor. Dentre as contribuições, propomos uma reflexão sobre o papel dos diários de aulas e do método de intervenção instrução ao sósia na formação inicial de professores.<br>This dissertation has as its broad objective to understand the work of the beginner teacher of FFL in the context of extracurricular courses of French at FFLCH-USP. This study is carried out through the analysis of the texts which are present in the situation of work and those produced by the teacher before and after his classes. Our main interest is to study the role of the prescriptions/orientations in the work of this teacher, trying to understand how they affect his work. We also aim to investigate the activity of the teacher according to what he says about his own work and about himself as a teacher in this context. We have also considered, according to Clot (1999) that, in order to understand the work of a teacher, it must also be taken into consideration what this worker is asked to carry out, what he actually did and also what he could have done, but for some reason could not do it. In order to achieve our goals, we have investigated three texts: i) the document which orients the work of the teacher in the context studied; ii) teaching diaries written by this teacher after his classes and iii) texts of interviews of instruction to the double with the teacher after his work. The theoretical background that gives basis to this research is the social interactionism developed by Vygotski (1927-2009) and two of its features: the socio-discursive interactionism (SDI) (BRONCKART, 1999/2009,2006,2008), used as theoretical basis for the comprehension of the work of the teacher as a way of acting and for the analysis of all the texts, giving a model of textual analysis. In parallel to the theoretical assumptions of the SDI, we have also used as basis some of the concepts of the branches of the sciences of work, more precisely, the ergonomics of the activity (AMIGUES, 2002; 2004; 2013; SAUJAT, 2004) and the activity-clinic (CLOT, 1999, 2001; FAÏTA, 2002, 2004), theoretical trends which propose some procedures that allow the creation of dialogues about the activity of work, as a method of intervention of instruction to the double, used in this study. The results of this analysis reveal some intermediate resources elaborated by the beginner teacher in order to overcome obstacles, in his context of work, in the process of the transition between the life as a student and the life as a teacher. Among these contributions, we proposed some thought about the role of the teaching diaries and the methods of intervention instruction to the double in the professional qualification of teachers.

Frente ao crescimento da população idosa no Brasil, observa-se a necessidade de cuidados de longo prazo voltados a parte desse grupo e de apoio aos seus familiares, que não conseguem mais assumir sozinhos a função do cuidado. Nesse contexto, é recente na sociedade a figura do cuidador de idoso, cuja função é classificada como ocupação pela Classificação Brasileira de Ocupações. O Projeto de Lei do Senado 284/2011 apresentou a proposta de regulamentação da profissão de cuidador de pessoa idosa que, entre outras ações, foi debatido em duas audiências públicas. A presente pesquisa teve como objetivos analisar o processo de regulamentação da profissão de cuidador da pessoa idosa ocorrido no Senado; identificar e discutir as possíveis consequências da aprovação do projeto de lei para a sociedade brasileira; analisar a relação dessa ocupação com profissões regulamentadas e identificar e analisar os encaminhamentos necessários após a regulamentação. Esta pesquisa apoiou-se epistemologicamente em pressupostos do construcionismo social e utilizou instrumental analítico-conceitual das Práticas Discursivas e Produção de Sentidos para compreender os processos de comunicação. O objeto de pesquisa foram as duas audiências públicas promovidas pelo Senado Federal para discutir o projeto de lei: a primeira realizada em Brasília (2011) e a segunda em São Paulo (2012), gravadas pela TV Senado e encaminhadas em DVDs para a pesquisadora, que as transcreveu. A análise das audiências foi quantitativa e qualitativa e, para organizá-las, foram criados quadros de categorização dos enunciados e quadros síntese temáticos. Os eixos temáticos analisados foram Políticas Públicas, Formação Profissional, Competências e Procedimentos, Direitos Trabalhistas e Responsabilidade Criminal. Em cada eixo, foram criadas subcategorias, de acordo com os assuntos abordados pelas pessoas que fizeram pronunciamentos relevantes nas audiências. Na análise de cada audiência, realizou-se a descrição do contexto em que aconteceram e foram apresentados os palestrantes e outras pessoas que se pronunciaram e tiveram suas falas incluídas na análise. Baseada nessa análise global, foram analisados os eixos temáticos quantitativamente mais relevantes em cada audiência: na 1ª audiência foram Formação Profissional, Políticas Públicas, Competências e Procedimentos e, na 2ª audiência, Formação Profissional, Competências e Procedimentos. A discussão em conjunto das duas audiências foi realizada conforme as questões norteadoras: quais são as consequências da aprovação do projeto de lei para a sociedade brasileira?; qual a relação dessa ocupação com profissões regulamentadas?; quais são os encaminhamentos necessários após a regulamentação? Os principais resultados apontaram que uma das consequências da aprovação do projeto de lei é o reforço da obrigação estatal em relação à assistência direta ao idoso e à formação do cuidador de idosos, o que tem sido realizado de maneira tímida. Quanto à relação com profissões regulamentadas, observam-se arenas de conflitos pelo mercado de trabalho, tendo em vista que a atuação de profissionais de profissões regulamentadas inclui funções que cuidadores podem realizar, gerando disputa pelo mesmo público. Em relação aos encaminhamentos necessários após a regulamentação, discutem-se dois aspectos referentes à formação dos cuidadores de idosos. Observou-se a importância do diálogo aberto com a sociedade civil para refinamento e adequação do projeto especificamente às políticas públicas, às competências e procedimentos, à formação profissional e ficaram evidentes as lutas pelo mercado de trabalho e as vozes de apoio à regulamentação da profissão. Concluiu-se que o processo de regulamentação da profissão de cuidador de idosos passa pela sua regulação no mercado de trabalho, pois se relaciona com disputas com profissões já instituídas que se sobrepõem aos interesses e necessidades da população idosa que necessita de cuidados especiais<br>Due to the growth of the elderly population in Brazil, there is the need for long term care aimed at part of this group and of support to their families, who can no longer assume the role of care alone. In this context, the figure of the elderly caregiver whose function is classified by the Brazilian Classification of Occupations is recent in our society. The Senate bill 284/2011 introduced a proposal for regulating the elderly caregiver profession that, among other initiatives, was discussed at two public hearings. The goals of this study were to analyze the regulatory process of the elderly caregiver profession in the Senate; to identify and discuss the possible consequences of the approval of the bill to the Brazilian society; to analyze the relationship of this occupation with regulated professions and to identify and analyze the actions that will need to be taken after the regulation. This research relied epistemologically on social constructionism assumptions and used conceptual analytical techniques of Discursive Practices and Production of Meaning to understand the communication processes. The research objects were the two public hearings held by the Federal Senate to discuss the bill, the first held in Brasilia (2011) and the second in São Paulo (2012), recorded by TV Senado and sent on DVD for the researcher, that transcribed them. The analysis of the hearings was quantitative and qualitative, and to organize the examination, statement categorization tables and thematic synthesis tables were created. The analyzed themes were Public Policy, Professional Formation, Skills and Procedures, Employment Rights and Criminal Responsibility. Subcategories were created in each theme, according to the subjects addressed by the people who made significant pronouncements in the hearings. In the analysis of each hearing, a description of the context in which they occurred was made, and the speakers and others who have spoken and who had the lines included in the analysis were presented. Based on this global analysis, the quantitatively most important themes were analyzed in each hearing: on the first hearing they were Professional Formation, Public Policy, Skills and Procedures and on the second hearing, Professional Formation, Skills and Procedures. The joint discussion of the two hearings was done according to the following guiding questions: What are the consequences of the adoption of the bill for the Brazilian society? What is the relationship of this occupation with regulated professions? What actions need to be taken after the regulation? The main results showed that one consequence of the adoption of the bill is an increase in the State\'s obligation in relation to the direct assistance to the elderly and the training of elderly caregivers, which has been happening timidly so far. As for the relation with regulated professions, areas of conflict were observed, given that the attributions of regulated professions include functions that caregivers may provide, creating a dispute for the same target audience. Regarding the necessary actions after regulation, two aspects related to the training of elderly caregivers are discussed. The importance of open dialogue with civil society to refine and adapt the bill specifically to public policies, skills and procedures and professional formation, in which the the struggles in competing for the same market and the voices of support for the regulation of the profession were made evident, was observed. It was concluded that the regulatory process of the elderly caregiver profession touches on its regulation on the labor market, as it relates to disputes with professions already in place, with overlapping interests and needs of the elderly population that needs special care

A certeza da existência de um domínio que garanta o bem fazer, apoiada na lógica do discurso universitário, caracteriza a pretensa Pedagogia Científica da atualidade. A demanda pelas teorias psicológicas (especialmente, as do desenvolvimento), o professor reflexivo (racional e explicativo) e o espaço conferido aos recursos tecnológicos vêm servir à lógica que anima o discurso pedagógico. A maneira de a pedagogia compreender a educação, como aplicação dos princípios científicos que permitem o controle da aprendizagem, observa um racionalismo-cientificista, resistente à idéia de não saber inerente à relação do sujeito com o desejo, noção revelada pela psicanálise. A resistência à aceitação dessa impossibilidade por parte daqueles impregnados do discurso pedagógico, bem como de um grupo maior de racionalistas-cientificistas, é explicada no fato de que o desejo sempre se revela après coup, então, reclama a renúncia à ideia clássica de controle e previsão. O problema da Educação passa pela palavra e pelo fato de que o sujeito (falante ou ouvinte) está, por princípio, implicado em todo ato. A verdade da palavra, então, permite compreender a natureza da impossibilidade estrutural que a psicanálise descortina. Ela se relaciona com uma realidade inequívoca: a fala mediada pelo Outro. Portanto, em última instância, é o desejo que fala. Em linhas gerais, os educadores devem extrair, essencialmente, duas contribuições da experiência com a teoria freudiana, sendo que a primeira abre caminho para a segunda: o conhecimento da constituição infantil e sobre si mesmos. No entanto, perseguindo uma relação de causalidade entre os meios pedagógicos utilizados e a previsão dos resultados, a pedagogia mantém-se resistente à noção de que o inconsciente possui um peso maior do que as intenções conscientes do educador. A psicanálise possibilita compreender que sustentar a transmissão significa suportar, subjetivamente, a angústia de uma posição discursiva que 7 exige a renúncia da onipotência narcísica e dos ideais de grandeza e de perfeição. Por isso, em oposição aos métodos (ao padrão), pode-se refletir sobre a questão do estilo na tarefa de cada educador. O discurso pedagógico mantém a instituição educativa suspensa na ilusão. Seria necessário, portanto, renunciar a essa espécie de sustentação e dar lugar à realidade, lembrando Freud, ou, como a psicanálise permite ver, às infinitas faces da verdade. A pesquisa ora apresentada tenciona demonstrar que a especificidade e a legitimidade do ensino da psicanálise a educadores repousa nas condições que vem oferecer para o resgate do sentido atualmente perdido da educação.<br>The certainty of the existing domain that guarantees the assertion of an action, which could be called a \"well done action\", based on the academical speech coherence, characterizes the pretentious \"Scientific Pedagogy\" of the present time. The demand for psychological theories (specially, the ones concerning to development), the \"reflective teacher\" (rational and explanatory) and the space granted to the technological resources underlie the reason that encourages the pedagogical speech. The way by which pedagogy understands education, as application of scientific beginnings that allow the control of learning, observes a scientific rationalism, resistant to the idea of non-lore, which is inherent to the relation between subject and desire, knowledge revealed by the psychoanalysis. The resistance to the acceptance of this impossibility by those who are impregnated of the pedagogical speech, as well as by a larger group of scientific rationalists, is explained on the fact that the desire is always revealed après coup, claiming the renouncement to the classic idea of control and forecast. The \"problem\" of Education goes through the word and the fact that the individual (speaker or listener) is, in beginning, implied in every action. The \"truth\" of the word, then, allows understanding the nature of the structural impossibility exposed by the psychoanalysis. It is linked to an unmistakable reality: the speech mediated by the other person. Therefore, ultimately, it is the desire that speaks. In general lines, educators should extract, essentially, two contributions of the Freudian theory experience, having the first one make way to the second: the knowledge of children constitution and of themselves. However, pursuing a causality relationship between the practiced pedagogical ways and the forecast of results, pedagogy keeps on resistant to the notion that the educator\'s unconscious weighs more than his conscious intentions. Psychoanalysis allows comprehending that sustaining transmission 9 means to support subjectively, the anguish of a discursive position that demands the renouncement of the narcissistic omnipotence and the ideals of magnitude and perfection. Therefore, in opposition to the methods (to the pattern), the style in each educator\'s task can be thought. The pedagogical speech keeps the educational institution held by illusion. It would be necessary, therefore, to renounce this sort of sustentation and give place to reality, or, as psychoanalysis shows, to the infinite faces of the truth. In this present research it is intended the demonstration that the specificity and the legitimacy of the psychoanalysis teaching to educators lies on the conditions it offers for the rescue of the lost sense in education.

A proposta deste estudo é compreender a experiência vivida pelo educando do curso profissionalizante de enfermagem no aprendizado do cuidado no cenário da terapia intensiva, refletindo sobre essa formação, tendo em vista as perspectivas atuais para a educação de trabalhadores para a saúde e a necessidade de construir o atendimento integral, no contexto do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Fundamenta-se em algumas idéias da abordagem fenomenológica de pesquisa. Foram realizadas observação das experiências no cenário de aprendizagem e entrevistas com onze estudantes de uma Escola Profissionalizante em Enfermagem do município de Ribeirão Preto, SP, que participavam do estágio em terapia intensiva em um hospital público no período de 31 de julho a 11 de outubro de 2006. A entrevista aberta foi conduzida a partir da questão norteadora: \"Como tem sido para você cuidar de pacientes críticos nesse momento de sua formação?\". A compreensão da experiência enfatiza o estágio de caráter essencialmente técnico, valorizando a realização de procedimentos mediante a inserção do estudante na rotina do setor, caracterizada pelo modelo biologicista predominante. Apesar disso, em algumas situações, o educando começa a perceber a pessoa internada para além da doença e da técnica, porém, elas são pouco consideradas como integrantes do processo ensinoaprendizagem, bem como a sensibilidade explicitada pelo educando pouco valorizada como dimensão essencial para a construção do compromisso ético-social. Do mesmo modo que o cuidar cotidiano é limitado no sentido de considerar a integralidade da pessoa gravemente doente, o processo ensino aprendizagem não contempla a integralidade do sujeito aprendiz que pensa, sente e age de maneira singular e inserido em um contexto social. Assim, se faz necessário rever o processo formativo, incorporando conhecimentos, habilidades e atitudes voltados à compreensão do cuidado do doente crítico no contexto de saúde atual, do mundo subjetivo e social incluindo familiares e nas questões existenciais como o cerceamento de liberdade e a possibilidade do morrer. Para tal, torna-se fundamental transcender ao treinamento técnico e construir prática educativa, condizente com a formação humanizada para o cuidado de enfermagem<br>This study proposes understanding the student\'s experience in the nursing professionalizing course in learning the cares for critical patients within the intensive care environment, reflecting over this information, considering the present perspectives for the education of health professionals and the need to build an integral service within the context of the Public Health System (SUS). It is based on a few ideas of the phenomenological approach of the research. The experiences were observed within the learning environment with eleven interviews with students from the Professionalizing Nursing School in the municipality of Ribeirão Preto, SP, who participated in the intensive care internship at a public hospital between July 31 and October 30 2006. The open interview was conducted with the following guidance question: \"How has it been for you to take care of critical patients in this moment of your education?\". The comprehension of the interviews focuses on the internship as essentially technical, valuing the execution of procedures that enable the student\'s insertion in the sector routine, which relates to the predominant biologic model. Despite this, in some situations, the student begins perceiving the person staying in the hospital beyond the disease and the technique, nevertheless, these situations are little considered as integrating the teaching-learning process, with the student\'s initial sensitivity not being valued as an essential dimension for the construction of the ethical-social commitment. In the same manner as the day-to-day care is limited in the sense of considering the integrality of the severely sick person, the teaching-learning process does not contemplate the student integrally as a subject that thinks, feels and acts in a unique manner and that is inserted in a social context. Thus, there is the need to review the education process, incorporating knowledge, abilities and attitudes directed to the understanding of the ICU within the present health context, the subjective and social world of the critical patients and their family members, and the existential issues, such as the restriction of liberty and the possibility of dieing. For such, it becomes fundamental to transcend the technical training and build an educational practice, in agreement with the education of the human being.
