Full textAbstract:
Decisions on entitlement to sickness benefits and return to work interventions have substantial impact on individuals’ lives and on society. In most Western European countries, such decisions are based on sickness certificates, which should provide information on how a disease or injury reduces the individual’s work ability. These are challenging and complex assessments. In 2008, guidelines for the management of sick leave were implemented in Sweden, emphasizing early assessments of work ability and return to work, and increasing the quality demands of sickness certificates by underscoring descriptions of activity limitations related to work. The overall aim of this thesis was to gain a deeper knowledge of the sick leave process with special emphasis on the content of sickness certificates and primary health care (PHC) professionals’ experiences with the process. Specific aims were to compare the quality of sickness certificates regarding descriptions of functioning by the use of WHO’s International Classification of Functioning, disability, and health (ICF), as well as the prescribed interventions before versus after implementation of the Swedish sick leave guidelines. The thesis comprises three studies. A cross-sectional design was used in studies I and II, which included 475 and 501 new sickness certificates consecutively collected in Östergötland County, Sweden, in 2007 and 2009, respectively. Text on functioning was analysed with a deductive content analysis using the ICF. Study III was an exploratory study using data from four semi-structured focus group discussions with a purposeful sample of PHC professionals (n=18) in Östergötland County. An inductive content analysis was used in this study. The thesis comprises three studies.

An inductive content analysis was used in this study. An overall conclusion drawn from this thesis is that patient functioning and needs might not be adequately communicated in the sick leave process. Despite the implementation of sick leave guidelines, this information is limited in sickness certificates and the collaboration is poor among the involved stakeholders, i.e., health care, the social insurance office, the employer and the OHS. The basis for decisions on entitlement to sickness benefits could be improved by including a description of the patients’ activity limitations or participation restrictions related to work demands. One way to enhance the decision basis might be to use the available team competencies at the PHC.

Full textAbstract:
Non-drinkers have been consistently found to have worse health outcomes than moderate drinkers in later life. Explanations for this include a protective effect of moderate alcohol consumption on health, or alternatively that some non-drinkers are ex-drinkers who may have had to stop drinking because of poor health hence suffering from a pre-existing poor health bias. Another factor, which has been unexplored in the literature, is the early life health and social circumstances of non-drinkers; this is the subject of investigation in this thesis. The Health Survey for England was used to explore the early life social, health and health behaviours of non-drinkers aged 18 to 34 years. The National Child Development Study and the 1970 British Cohort Study were used to investigate the childhood health characteristics of non-drinkers in early adulthood. Binary logistic regression was carried out to assess whether poor health from an early age and persistent poor health was associated with being a persistent non-drinker across time at different ages, adjusting for sex, highest qualification, mental health and marital and parental status. Poor health from an early age and persistent poor health were associated with being a lifetime abstainer, consistently between two cohorts, which is an original contribution to knowledge. Non-drinkers from an early age had higher rates of emotional and behaviour problems than drinkers; this may contribute to greater risk of cognitive decline. Furthermore non-drinkers in early adulthood had higher rates of health conditions in adolescence, and had lower educational levels from early adulthood. This might increase the risk of mortality among non-drinkers in later life through persistent multiple disadvantage from an early age. The health and social characteristics of non-drinkers in early life need to be considered when comparing health outcomes of non-drinkers with drinkers in later life. The worse health and lower social circumstances of non-drinkers from an early age may be why non-drinkers consistently have worse health outcomes than drinkers across a broad range of conditions.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis studies how sick leave legitimacy is managed in interaction and develops an empirically driven conceptualization of ‘legitimacy work’. The thesis applies an ethnomethodological framework that draws on conversation analysis, discursive psychology, and membership categorization analysis. Naturally occurring interaction is examined in two settings: (1) multi-party meetings at the Swedish Social Insurance Agency, in which participants assess and discuss the ‘status’ of the sick leave and plan for work rehabilitation; (2) peer-based online text-in-interaction in a Swedish forum thread that gathers people on sick leave. The thesis shows how mental states, activities and alternative categories function as resources for legitimacy work. However, such invocations are no straight-forward matter, but impose additional contingencies. It is thus crucial how they are invoked. By detailed analyses of the interaction, with attention to aspects such as lexicality and delivery, the thesis identifies a range of discursive features that manage sick leave legitimacy. Deployed resources are also subtle enough to be deniable as legitimacy work, that is, they also manage the risk of an utterance being seen as invested or biased. While legitimate sick leave is a core concern for Swedish policy-making, administration, and public debate on sick leave, previous research has for the most part been explanatory in orientation, minding legitimacy rather than studying it in its own right. By providing detailed knowledge about the legitimacy work that people on long-term sick leave do as part of both institutional and mundane encounters, the thesis contributes not only new empirical knowledge, but a new kind of empirical knowledge, shedding light on how the complexities of sick leave play out in real-life situations. Traditional sociological approaches have to a significant extent treated legitimacy as an entity with beginnings and ends that in more or less direct ways relate to external norms and cognitive states, or that focus on institutions, authority or government. By contrast, the herein emerging concept ‘legitimacy work’ understands legitimacy as a locally contingent practicality – a collaborative categorially oriented accomplishment that is integral to the interactional situation.

Ce travail porte sur la synthèse et la conversion thermique de gels polysiloxanes obtenus par voie sol-gel. L' objectif est de mieux comprendre le rôle de groupements substituants liés aux atomes de silicium sur la réticulation, le rendement céramique et le comportement à haute température. Parmi les différents précurseurs permettant l'élaboration de verres (Si/C/O), notre choix s'est porté sur deux grandes familles : les composés trifonctinnels de type RSi (OEt)3 ( où R=CH3, C2H3 ET C6H5° et les composés possédant des liaisons Si-H résultant de la copolymérisation du méthyldiéthoxysilane et d'un rapport variable de triéthoxysilane (DhTh 1/1, 1/2 et 1/9). Le premier chapitre de ce travail a été consacré à l' étude en solution des réactions d' hydrolyse-condensation des différents précurseurs par spectroscopie Raman. En suivant la cinétique de disparition de la bande vSi-O dans les précurseurs, nous avons pu accéder à la réactivité intrinsèque de chacun à l' hydrolyse qui a été expliquée par les effets conjugués (stériques, mésomères et inductifs). Dans le deuxième chapitre de ce mémoire, nous avons étudié les mécanismes de conversion thermique des gels polymériques en oxycarbures de silicium en s' attachant à définir la chronologie des principaux processus qui semblent régir cette transformation en relation avec la nature du groupement hydrocarboné. Le troisième chapitre a traité de l' évolution structurale des systèmes Si/C/O. N ous avons clairement établi l' importance et les domaines précis de température de chacune des réactions mises en jeu au-delà de 1000°C en relation avec la composition chimique du système étudié. La réaction de carboréduction a été étayée, mettant en évidence la formation de SiO comme étape intermédiaire qui implique un déplacement du front de réaction dans le lit de poudre<br>This work concerns the synthesis and the thermal evolution of polysiloxanes gels obtained by the sol-gel method. The aim of this study is to better understand the effect of the substituting groups bonded to silicon atoms on the cross-linking, ceramic yield and the thermal behaviour at high temperature. Two different types of precursors have been studied : trifonctional compounds RSi(OEt)3 ( where R=CH3, C2H3 and C6H5) and precursors that contained Si-H bonds obtained after polymerization of a mixture of methyldiethoxysilane and triethoxysilane in a variable amount (DhTh 1/1, 1/2 and 1/9). The first chapter concerns the study of hydrolysis and condensation reactions of different precursors by Raman spectroscopy. By following the kinetics of the disappearance of vSiO, we could access the intrinsic reactivity of hydrolysis reaction for of each precursor. These phenomena have been explained by steric, mesomer and inductive effects. In the second chapter, we studied the mechanisms of thermal conversion of polymeric gels into silicon oxycarbide. Thus the chronology of the main processes of mineralization in relation to the nature of the substituting group has been evaluated. The third chapter deals with the structural evolution of Si/C/O systems. We clearly established the importance and the domain of temperature of each reaction, which occurs above 1000°C, in relation to the composition of the materials. Carbothermal reaction has been studied and it shows SiO gas to be an intermediate product

Syftet med denna undersökning var att genom kvalitativa intervjuer belysa hur personal på två förskolor, där man arbetar med TAKK (Tecken som Alternativ/Kompletterande Kommunikation), ser på användningen av TAKK i arbetet med barn i åldrarna ett till fem år. Våra frågeställningar är om personalen anser att användning av TAKK gynnar barnens språkutveckling och om det gynnar samspelet i barngruppen.Vårt resultat visar att våra informanter anser att TAKK gynnar alla barns utveckling i språk och samspel. De barn som är i behov av det stöd som tillämpningen av TAKK kan medföra kan samspela och kommunicera med de andra barnen på grund av att alla barn i barngruppen är med i integreringen av TAKK i förskolan. Genom ett fungerande samspel minskar konflikterna mellan barn. Vår slutsats visar på att TAKK gynnar alla barns språkutveckling oavsett om det finns ett direkt behov av kommunikationsstöd eller inte.

Full textAbstract:
Although Talcott Parsons’s sick role theory, as described in 1951 in The Social System, has been severely criticized for its inapplicability to chronic illnesses, a portion of the theory is still a relevant and necessary factor in terms of understanding and treating chronic illness today. Using data from the 2012 National Health Interview Survey, this study looks at the individual effects of sex, age, race, cohabitation, education and region of residence on the likelihood of chronically ill patients considering themselves limited in their amount or kind of work as an indicator of sick role adaptation. Results show statistically significant relationships between work limitation and sex, age, cohabitation, education and region of residence, when controlling for the duration of the respondents’ condition. Further evaluation of these results is provided.

How can one reflect upon subjectivity in a territory where violence and poverty is commonplace? How can youngsters that are marginalized and perceived as outcasts exist in a society that avoids them? What is to be done with the young delinquents? Psychoanalysis states that To exist is to be seen. Experience suggests that existing and occupying a place in a particular society unquestionably involve the acknowledgement of the Other; acknowledged, an individual can speak and be heard. Since the youngster that breaks the law asks for help, we think it is important that he feels responsible for his actions, which implies a subjective change that is only possible by means of discourse.

Rennie, Claire Marie. "The care of sick children in eighteenth-century England." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2016. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/16508/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis develops our understanding of childhood illness and care through an examination of the types of care which were provided to children who suffered from common diseases and conditions in the eighteenth century. My research establishes that domestic care remained the norm throughout the eighteenth century, even though institutional care grew both in terms of its scope and the numbers treated in this period. This study reveals that Newton’s concept of ‘children’s physic’ retained its importance in the domestic setting. The development of institutions did not radically change the manner in which children received care. Although there was a clear move towards paediatrics in institutions, particularly those which opened in the latter part of the century, children treated by the Foundling Hospital, metropolitan workhouses, and dispensaries often received out-patient care that allowed them to be treated within a domestic setting. Approached through the prism of disease and disease categories, this thesis provides valuable insights into eighteenth-century views of health, childhood, and the body. The conditions examined in the thesis were diseases which regularly affected children during the eighteenth century. Childhood morbidity and mortality sometimes motivated medical experimentation on children. Through an examination of the care provided to children who suffered from certain conditions, and the experiments carried out upon them, the thesis provides a clearer understanding as to how children, their bodies, and the medical care that they required, were perceived during the eighteenth century. Aside from a focus on regimen, there was no standardisation in the care of sick children prior to the nineteenth century. The recommended regimen for children was linked to the non-naturals, placed an emphasis on moderation, and was designed with the maintenance and restoration of balance in mind. An analysis of the care provided to sick children in the eighteenth century illuminates a period of incomplete transition from ‘children’s physic’ to paediatrics. Although the origins of paediatrics are usually located in the nineteenth century, this thesis argues that the increased interest shown in children’s diseases, and the experiments undertaken on children, demonstrate that the roots of paediatric care were laid in the eighteenth century.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis studied empirically the air-handling etiology of the nonspecific symptoms of the eyes, respiratory tract, skin, and central nervous system in office workers, often termed the sick building syndrome. The results of a four-period crossover trial in 75 office workers suggest that 70% air recirculation when accompanied by an adequate intake of outdoor air can be used without causing adverse effects. A cross-sectional study of 2678 workers in 41 randomly selected office buildings from Helsinki metropolitan area provides evidence that mechanical ventilation, air conditioning, steam and evaporative humidification and air recirculation are risk indicators of studied symptoms in the existing Finnish office building stock. The results also suggest that outdoor-air ventilation rates below the optimal (15-25 L/s per person) increase the risk of the sick building syndrome symptoms with such sources of pollutants as present in mechanically ventilated office buildings.<br>Theoretical examination reveals that the sick building syndrome is a figurative concept of everyday language, rather than a singular disease entity. A theoretical model, the Office Environment Model, is presented to explain relations between the office environment and health.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis explores medical perceptions and treatments of children, and argues that a concept of 'children's physic' existed amongst doctors, medical authors, and the literate laity. 'Children's physic' denotes the idea that children were physiologically distinct beings, whose medicines needed to be adapted to suit their unique temperaments. The thesis also examines the family's experience of the child's illness, demonstrating that parents devoted considerable time and energy to the care of their sick offspring. The illness or death of a child was one of the saddest occasions in parents' lives, eliciting feelings of profound grief, fear, and guilt. It is shown that gender did not have much impact on the nature of parents' experiences: both mothers and fathers were involved in the practical tasks of tending their ill offspring, and both parties recorded emotions of extreme anguish at this time. Finally, the thesis attempts to reconstruct the experiences of the ailing children themselves, exploring what it was like being ill, in pain, and near death. It asserts that children's experiences were characterised by striking ambivalence: on the one hand, children were often tormented by feelings of guilt, the fear of hell, and physical pain, but on the other hand, illness could be emotionally and spiritually uplifting.

Previous issue date: 2008-06-23<br>O presente trabalho objetiva oferecer uma an?lise e uma interpreta??o da teoria pol?tica de Thomas Hobbes ? luz da ci?ncia do s?culo XVII e das descobertas operadas pela f?sica moderna em sua jun??o com a matem?tica. O texto se inicia com a abordagem do solo hist?rico sobre o qual se situa a filosofia de Hobbes, sobretudo com Euclides e Galileu, e caminha na dire??o da transposi??o dos movimentos f?sicos dos corpos para a funda??o do estado civil. Destaca-se uma no??o de filosofia que parte de uma base l?gico-proposicional e material para, ent?o, chegar a uma teoria pol?tica configurada na positividade formal da lei e no ordenamento jur?dico do Estado. Da apropria??o da tradi??o cient?fica moderna, emerge uma nova imagem do homem que, apesar de racional, est? submetido a movimentos inerciais no sentido mais laico do termo. Tais movimentos revelam a complexa e conflitiva condi??o a que est? submetida a natureza humana, pela potencial guerra de todos contra todos. Como solu??o para essa quest?o, Hobbes prop?e uma teoria pol?tica pautada no acordo das vontades e na transfer?ncia m?tua de direitos, transpondo elementos da filosofia natural para a filosofia civil, sobretudo na adequa??o da lei da queda livre dos corpos e do princ?pio da in?rcia aos movimentos dos corpos humanos na vida em sociedade. Nessa configura??o, o homem faz, de um lado, a guerra em nome da sobreviv?ncia e, de outro lado, cria o Estado como fruto de sua vontade num intrincado c?lculo que tra?a - muito mais do que a guerra - os melhores caminhos rumo ? preserva??o e ? paz. O que est? pressuposto na teoria pol?tica de Hobbes ? a an?lise do fisicalismo dos corpos e sua regulamenta??o externa pelo estado absoluto. Tal fisicalismo, no entanto, ao mesmo tempo em que representa a base sobre a qual se sustenta o modelo de Estado hobbesiano, nos leva a identificar os limites dessa teoria pol?tica, que pode n?o dar conta do fisicalismo radical identificado na origem dos corpos. A apropria??o desses elementos nos permite afirmar que o modelo pol?tico apresentado por Hobbes funda direitos e deveres num contrato de justifica??o da soberania dado pela vontade e autoriza??o, cuja marca principal ? a defesa. O Estado, n?o obstante ? sua face absoluta, apresenta-se como um construto artificial universal que agrupa a diversidade, abrindo os caminhos da autoriza??o pol?tica e da obriga??o moral.

Full textAbstract:
The Sick building syndrome (SBS) is a complex symptomology of individuals related to the adverse effects of indoor environment on health. Although almost any workplace can be affected it is most often associated with the office environment. The causes of SBS are not well understood, no single factor or agent has been identified. Some studies have indicated that SBS may be a result of multiple factors, including chemical, biological, physical, psychosocial, and occupational variables. One such variable, environmental tobacco smoke, has not been properly investigated as a contributing cause, and may be related to chemical sensitivity (CS). Some authors consider that victims of the SBS may be an example of chemical sensitivity and further that some CS patients become sensitive to electromagnetic fields (EMF) or electromagnetic radiations (EMR). The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of these potentially contributing factors to the sick building syndrome. 722 people in fifteen buildings with different ventilation systems were investigated via self-administrated questionnaires, in which data of SBS symptoms and ETS exposure and other information were collected. The results indicated that the combination of ETS exposure and working in air-conditioned office buildings contributed to the SBS symptoms in both uni-variate analysis, and multiple regression analysis, but neither of these variables individually has a significant effect on SBS. The contribution of environmental tobacco smoke is therefore considered to be small, but may be a contributing factor when taken together with other variables with air-conditioned buildings. In order to test the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on chemical sensitivity, 47 patients (19 sensitive to both electromagnetic fields and chemicals and 28 sensitive to chemicals only), and 34 controls were tested with sinusoidal uniform magnetic fields using Helmhotz coils in a single-blinded design study. The effects of exposure were tested by measurement of a number of physiological variables. Short time exposure to weak uniform sinusoidal magnetic fields at extremely low frequencies did not trigger more symptoms in chemical sensitivity patients than in controls. Significant changes in blood pressure and some parameters of pupil light reflexes were found in both CS patients and controls. Results indicate that ELF electromagnetic radiation may have an excitation effects on the sympathetic nervous system; however neither electrically sensitive nor chemically sensitive patients were more sensitive in these effects than controls. The contribution of tobacco smoke and ELF electromagnetic radiation to the cause of sick building symptoms needs further quantitative investigations.

Full textAbstract:
In order to fully understand contemporary Native American literature like the works written by Leslie Marmon Silko, one must have a sufficient knowledge of the Native American worldviews expressed in their oral stories that have been handed down for unremembered generations. The study has to include what the oral tradition has meant to the indigenous people and their communities, how it has been kept and passed down, and what it can do to the tribal peoples for securing their identity and power to cope with contemporary issues. Indigenous people have different worldviews from other culture groups; theirs are different in the conception of time and space, the importance of land, of the spirit beings, and the relationships with all the beings in Nature and in the universe. This study examines how Silko weaves tradition of oral storytelling and worldviews in her writing to pass invaluable messages across the boundaries of culture. Silko has a skill and knowledge ingrained in her blood to write from her tradition, and her works are not only compatible with the worldviews of the Native Americans but also she ingeniously expresses her messages in her works, including Ceremony. Silko makes her efforts to convey it to a wider readership. This makes Ceremony one of the most significant novels written in the twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
People spend most of their time indoors and mostly in the dwelling. It is therefore important to investigate associations between indoor exposure in dwellings and health. Symptoms that may be related to the indoor environment are sometimes referred to as the "sick building syndrome" (SBS). SBS involves symptoms such as eye, skin and upper airway irritation, headache and fatigue. Three longitudinal studies and one prevalence study on personal and environmental risk factors for SBS in adults were performed. The prevalence study included measurements of indoor exposures in the dwellings. The longitudinal studies, with 8-10 years follow-up time, showed that smoking and indoor paint emissions were risk factors for SBS. Moreover, building dampness and moulds in dwellings were risk factors for onset (incidence) of general symptoms, skin symptoms and mucosal symptoms. In addition subjects living in damp dwellings have a lower remission of general symptoms and skin symptoms. Hay fever was a risk factor for onset of skin symptoms and mucosal symptoms, and asthma was a risk factor for onset of general and mucosal symptoms. Biomarkers of allergy and inflammation (bronchial reactivity, total IgE, ECP and eosinophil count) were predictors of onset of SBS symptoms, in particular mucosal symptoms. In the prevalence study, any SBS-symptom was associated with some individual volatile organic compounds of possible microbial origin (MVOC) e.g. 2-pentanol, 2-hexanon, 2-pentylfuran and 1-octen-3ol. Moreover, there were associations between indoor levels of formaldehyde and the plasticizer Texanol and any SBS. The result from the study indicates that individual MVOC are better indicators of SBS than the total value of MVOC. A final conclusion is that smoking, dampness and moulds and emissions from indoor painting may increase the onset of SBS. The indoor environment in dwellings over time has improved, but there is still a need for further improvements of the indoor environment in dwellings. More longitudinal SBS studies are needed.

Previous issue date: 2008-11-14<br>The development of new fuels is an important field of scientific and technological activities, since much of the energy consumed in the world is obtained from oil, coal and
natural gas, and these sources are limited and not renewable. Recently it has assessed the employment of microemulsions as an alternative for obtaining fuel isotropic between
phases originally not miscible. Among many advantages, emphasizes the application of substances that provide the reduction of levels of emissions compared to fossil fuels. Thus,
this work was a study of various microemulsified systems, aiming to check the performance of the winsor regions front of the use of surfactants: RENEX 18 → 150, UNITOL L-60 → L-100 and AMIDA 60, together with structure of esters from soybean and castor bean oils. From the results it were chosen four systems to physico-chemical analyzes: System I RENEX 60, Soil bean oil, methylic ester (EMOS) and water; System
II RENEX 60/AMIDA 60, EMOS and water; System III RENEX 70, mamona oil methylic ester (EMOM) and water and System IV RENEX 95, EMOM and water. The tests of physico-chemical characterization and study of temperature increase were done with nine points with different compositions in a way to include the interest area
(microemulsion W/O). After this study, was conducted a modeling to predict the viscosity, the property is more varied as function of compositions systems changes. The best results were the systems II and IV with a temperature stability above 60?C. The system I had its physico-chemical characterization very similar to a fossil fuel. The system II was the best one due to its corrosivity be stable. In the modeling the four systems had shown good, with
an error that varied between 5 and 18%, showing to be possible the viscosity prediction from the composition of the system. The effects the microemulsion and the engine?s
performance with the microemulsion were also avaliated. The tests were performed in a cycle-diesel engine. The potency and consumption were analysed. Results show a slight
increase the rendiment fuel compared with the conventional as well as a decrease in specific consumption<br>O desenvolvimento de novos combust?veis constitui um importante campo de atividade cient?fica e tecnol?gica, uma vez que grande parte da energia consumida no mundo ? obtida do petr?leo, carv?o e do g?s natural, e estas s?o fontes limitadas e n?o renov?veis. Recentemente tem-se avaliado o emprego de microemuls?es como uma alternativa para obten??o de combust?veis isotr?picos entre fases originalmente n?o misc?veis. Dentre muitas vantagens, ressalta-se a aplica??o de subst?ncias que proporcionam a redu??o dos n?veis de emiss?es em compara??o aos combust?veis f?sseis. Desta forma, neste trabalho realizou-se um estudo de v?rios sistemas microemulsionados, visando verificar o comportamento das regi?es de Winsor frente ? utiliza??o dos tensoativos: RENEX 18 ? 150, UNITOL L-60 ? L-100 e AMIDA 60 em conjunto com a estrutura dos ?steres do ?leo de soja e de mamona. A partir dos resultados foram
escolhidos quatro sistemas para an?lises fisico-qu?micas, sendo eles: Sistema I RENEX 60, ?ster Met?lico de ?leo de Soja (EMOS) e ?gua, Sistema II RENEX 60/AMIDA 60,
EMOS e ?gua, Sistema III RENEX 70, ?ster Met?lico de ?leo de Mamona (EMOM) e ?gua e Sistema IV RENEX 95, EMOM e ?gua. Os ensaios de caracteriza??o f?sicoqu?mica e do estudo do aumento da temperatura foram realizados com nove pontos de composi??es diferentes de forma a melhor abranger a regi?o de interesse (microemuls?o A/O). Ap?s esse estudo, foi realizada uma modelagem para prever a viscosidade, a
propriedade que mais variou em fun??o da mudan?a da composi??o dos sistemas. Os melhores resultados foram obtidos para os sistemas II e IV com estabilidade em
temperaturas acima de 60?C. O sistema I apresentou propriedades f?sico-quimicas muito parecidas com um combust?vel f?ssil. O sistema II foi o melhor sistema obtido devido sua corrosividade ter se mantido est?vel, comparado ao diesel f?ssil. Na modelagem os quatro sistemas se mostraram bons com um erro que variou entre 5 e 18%, mostrando ser poss?vel a predi??o da viscosidade a partir da composi??o do sistema. Foram realizados alguns testes preliminares em um motor ciclo diesel, sendo analisado o consumo de combust?vel e a pot?ncia. Os resultados mostraram um ligeiro aumento no rendimento motor com o
combust?vel microemulsionado em rela??o ao diesel convencional assim como uma diminui??o no consumo espec?fico

Previous issue date: 2005-12-06<br>Aristotle's definition of tragedy indicates a metaphysical project insinuated by a notion of k?tharsis. The reconstruction of Aristotle's method of definition is inspired in the concepts of en?rgeia and d?namis taken from Physics, understanding cause as substance. The Doctrine of the Four Causes is the theoretical basis of the definition of tragedy, placing tragedy in the genre of imitation and distinguishing its species: language (material cause), noble and complete action (formal cause), actors (efficient cause) and k?tharsis (temporarily identified with the final cause). Nevertheless, there is no final cause in the definition of tragedy. The k?tharsis of passions is experienced by the spectator when he witnesses tragedy, which is the imitation of a noble action, executed by actors and not narrated. Aristotle justifies hid proposition in favor of mimesis by assuming that imitation is natural to man since infancy and the view of objects allows whoever contemplates them to identify and learn the originals. As a metaphysical principle, k?tharsis is projected to beyond definition of tragedy, where it is manifested cathartically, in the spectator. Research about the spectator brings one back to the definition of tragedy, where the imitation is an imperfect copy which evokes in the spectator the presence of the originals of the imitated sentiments, thus realizing the k?tharsis of these emotions. In this way k?tharsis reveals itself as selfknowledge and approach of divine truth and perfections.<br>A defini??o de trag?dia na Po?tica aponta para um projeto metaf?sico insinuado pela no??o de k?tharsis. A reconstitui??o do m?todo de defini??o de Arist?teles inspira-se nos conceitos de en?rgeia e d?namis retirados da F?sica, entendendo causa como subst?ncia. A Doutrina das Quatro Causas ? o referencial te?rico que orienta a defini??o de trag?dia, enquadrando-a no g?nero da imita??o e dividindo-lhes as esp?cies: linguagem (causa material), a??o nobre e completa (causa formal), atores (causa eficiente) e k?tharsis (temporariamente identificada como causa final). Entretanto, n?o h? causa final na defini??o de trag?dia. A k?tharsis das paix?es processa-se no espectador ao assistir ? trag?dia que ? a imita??o de uma a??o nobre, executada pelos atores e n?o narrada. Arist?teles justificou sua proposi??o em favor da m?mese ao assumir que "imitar ? natural ao homem desde a inf?ncia e a vista das imagens proporciona a quem as contempla aprender e identificar cada original". Como princ?pio metaf?sico, K?tharsis se projeta para fora da defini??o de trag?dia, onde realiza-se a manifesta??o cat?rtica, no espectador. A pesquisa em torno do espectador retorna para a defini??o de trag?dia, onde a imita??o ? c?pia imperfeita que evoca no espectador a presen?a dos originais daqueles sentimentos imitados, realizando assim, a k?tharsis dessas emo??es. K?tharsis revela-se ent?o, como auto-conhecimento e aproxima??o das verdades e perfei??es divinas<br>2020-01-01

the generation of electricity and about the ways electricity can be used is a very important
and actual area. This work has the purpose to introduce the use of an impedance source
converter to feed single-phase loads from a primary feed system, operating in standalone
mode. The converter has an impedance network at the input terminals composed by an ultra
fast diode, inductors and capacitors. There are used four power switches to convert DC
power to AC power. The input voltage in Z-network is synthesized using a set composed
by an adjustable AC voltage source, a three-phase rectifier bridge and a larger electrolytic
capacitor of filter. A guide line for the design of power converters and output filters, as
well as simple boost modulation technique and its variations will be presented. Besides
that, a new modulation technique will be proposed. Also simulation and experimental results
about the modulation techniques used to drive the impedance source converter will
be presented.

Full textAbstract:
The Public Service is service delivery driven, and is dependent on the quality, skill and performance of the employees to carry through its business. It is therefore imperative that the policies and systems pertaining to human capital are effectively and efficiently managed. The Basic Conditions of Employment Act regulates the basic conditions of employment and states that employees’ may be absent from duty due to illness. The public sector uses the Determination on the Leave of Absence in the Public Service as a tool to regulate leave in the public sector. The Determination provides employees with 36 paid sick days to be utilised by an employee within a three-year cycle. In cases where an employee has exhausted the sick leave, the employer may grant Temporary Incapacity Leave, which is discretional. The Public Service Commission has a constitutional obligation to monitor the performance of the public sector and produce reports covering the human resources management practices. With regards to the management of leave in the public sector, the reports reveal the abuse of sick leave by employees, non-compliance and the in-effective management. The Department of Public Service and Administration then developed the PILIR as a guide to manage and administer sick and incapacity leave in the public sector. This treatise therefore, discusses the regulation of sick and incapacity leave in the public sector and investigates the extent to which the applicable legislative framework is effective. The discussion uses the Labour Court judgment in the matter between The Public Service Association & Others versus the PSCBC & Others as reference, and further evaluates the judicial jurisprudence to demonstrate the extent of contentions of the private sector employers by the employees. Furthermore, this treatise seeks to evaluate the extent of similarities or differences of the practices both the private sector and the municipalities. In conclusion, the treatise makes recommendations on the best practices that can be adopted by the public sector to turn the situation around.
