Full textAbstract:
Este trabalho teve por objetivo desenvolver e caracterizar um sensor de força utilizando uma fibra óptica modificada pelo processo conhecido como Fiber tapering. A fibra quando modificada deixa exposto o campo evanescente, o que a torna sensível a influências externas, e a luz guiada na fibra pode vir a sofrer reflexão interna total frustrada ao entrar em contato com materiais. Ao envolver a região modificada por um material elastomérico, a área de contato e consequentemente a atenuação torna-se uma função da intensidade da força aplicada, possibilitando então relacionar a força a atenuação da luz. Baseando-se nesse efeito, foi criado um sensor de dimensões reduzidas, de rápida resposta, linear, altamente sensível e de boa repetibilidade. Foi criado também um circuito eletrônico utilizando amplificadores operacionais para a aquisição e processamento do sinal proveniente da fibra e selecionado um sensor comercial comum para a realização de experimentos e comparações. Ambos os sensores foram posicionados sobre uma balança de precisão e submetidos a diversos esforços obtendo-se dados sobre a resposta estática. Em seguida utilizando um shaker eletrodinâmico foram medidos os tempos de resposta a uma entrada degrau, e realizando esforços repetitivos foram analisados os desvios das medidas lidas pelos sensores.The aim of this research was to develop and characterize a force sensor using a modified optical fiber by a process known as Fiber tapering. The modified fiber leaves the evanescent field exposed and prone to external influences and the guided light may suffer frustration of total internal reflection upon contact with materials. When covering the modified fiber section with an elastomeric material, the contact area and therefore the attenuation becomes a function of the applied pressure, making it possible to relate force to attenuation in light intensity. Based on this effect, a small sensor was created, having a quick response time, with high linearity, high sensitivity and good repeatability. Along with the sensor, an electronic circuit using operational amplifiers was designed for acquisition and processing of the signal obtained from the optical fiber. In addition, in order to perform experiments and comparisons, a standard force sensor was chosen. Both sensors were placed over a precision weighing scale and had different intensities of force applied on them, and after that, data regarding static measurements was gathered. The response time was obtained using an electrodynamic shaker and applying a step input. Furthermore, data was gathered about the deviations on the measurements by performing a repetitive set of compressions.

Projeto de Pós-Graduação/Dissertação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Medicina DentáriaImplante conexão mantém estreita ligação com o espaço biológico que representa uma garantia para uma boa saúde dos tecidos moles e duros. Ela terá um impacto significativo sobre o sucesso dos projetos protéticos, tanto a nível funcional e estético. Existem basicamente três tipos de implante-pilar conexões: hexágono externo, hexágono interno, que têm em comum um parafuso de transfixação que tem um papel fundamental na estabilidade e um outro sistema de conexão interna chamada "cone Morse". Em conexão hexagonano interno e externo, as forças oclusais são transmitidos na crista óssea com o risco de formação de crateras. Por outro lado o sistema de "cone Morse" é muito mais apertado, o que permite que ele seja posicionado subcrestal evitando a infiltração bacteriana. Este sistema de conexão apresenta a vantagem de a distribuição das forças oclusais ao longo do implante. Objetivo: O objective desta revisao da literatura é enumerar e descrever os diferentes conexão implantare, o impacto dos conectores sobre o espaço biológico e as estratégias terapêuticas aplicadas para preservá-lo. Material e Métodos: Para este efeito, uma pesquisa foi feita e os dados foram obtidos a partir de recursos on-line: Scielo, Medline, Bireme, PubMed, Bon, livros e revistas especializadas que foi realizado entre dezembro de 2014 e junho de 2015. As palavras-chave utilizadas foram : cone Morse implante, espaço biológico, espaço biológico peri-implantare , propriedades das conexões implantar, plateform switshing, a preservação do espaço biológico peri-implantare. Conclusão: restaurações de implantes envolvem diferentes tipos de conexão implante-pilar. O hexágono externo ainda tem muitos seguidores, mas hoje em dia muitos dentistas preferem conexão interna como hexágono interno e cone Morse. Este último permite uma melhor distribuição das forças a nível crestal. As propriedades mecânicas e estruturais do conectore cone Morse conferem resistência e junta bacteriana que trazem benefícios significativos no fenômeno da reabsorção óssea pericrestal. Implant connection maintains narrow link with the biologic width which represents a guarantee to a good health of soft and hard tissue. It will have a significant impact on the success of the prosthetic projects, both functional and aesthetic level. There are basically three types of implant-abutment connections: External hexagon, internal hexagon, which have in common a transfixation screw which has a key role in the stability and another internal connection system called “Morse taper”. In internal and external hexagon connection, occlusal forces are transmitted at the crestal bone with the risk of cratering. Conversely the “Morse taper” system is much more tight which allows it to be positioned subcrestaly while avoiding the bacterial leakage. This connection system also has the advantage of distributing the occlusal forces throughout the implant. Objective: This literature review aim to enumerate and describe the different implant connection type, the impact of the connectors on the biologic width and the therapeutic strategies implemented to preserve it. Materials and methods: For this purpose a research has been done and data was obtained from online resources: Scielo, Medline, Bireme, Pubmed, Bon, books and specialized magazines which was conducted between December 2014 and June 2015. The key words used were Morse taper implant, biologic width, peri-implant biologic width, properties for implant connection, platform switching and preservation of peri-implant biologic width. Conclusion: Implant restorations involve different types of implant-abutment connection. The external hexagon still has many followers but nowadays many dentists prefer internal connection like internal hexagon and Morse taper. The latter allows a better distribution of forces at crestal level. The mechanical and structural properties of Morse taper connector confer resistance and bacterial seal that bring significant benefits in the phenomenon of pericrestal bone resorption.

Projeto de Pós-Graduação/Dissertação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Medicina DentáriaFalhas em sistemas de implantes dentários causadas pelo acúmulo de biofilmes, inflamação peri-implantar e degradação de materiais tem sido associadas ao desajuste de conexões entre pilares protéticos e implantes dentários. Sendo assim, o objetivo desse estudo foi caracterizar o ajuste implante-pilar de um sistema do tipo cone Morse por técnicas microscópicas. Um grupo de dez implantes e respectivos minipilares protéticos foram estudados. Superfícies da área das conexões dos implantes e dos minipilares protéticos foram inspecionadas por microscopia eletrônica de varrimento (MEV). Em seguida, os componentes foram conectados sob torque de 32 Ncm e embutidos em resina epóxica. As amostras implante-minipilar foram então seccionadas perpendicularmente ao plano da conexão implante-minipilar para mensuração das microfendas por MEV. Além disso, as áreas inspecionadas por MEV foram também analisadas quanto a composição química por espectroscopia de energia dispersiva (EDS) assim como por testes de nanoindentação e microdureza de Vickers. Defeitos originados do processamento foram detectados em todos as superfícies dos minipilares analisados por MEV. Os valores das dimensões das microfendas entre implante e minipilar variaram de 0,5 a 5 μm, aproximadamente. A presença de defeitos nas áreas de conexão intensificou a discrepância das microfendas. Os elementos Ti, Al e V foram identificados no espectro obtido por EDS dos minipilares o que sugere a composição da liga Ti6Al4V. Já para os implantes, apenas o elemento Ti foi identificado, o que confirma a sua composição baseada em titânio comercialmente puro. Maiores valores de microdureza Vickers foram encontrados para o pilar protético de Ti6Al4V (360 ± 17 HV) quando comparados aos valores para os implante de Ti CP (320 ± 8 HV). A diferença entre os valores de dureza do minipilar e implante dentário pode acelerar o processo de desgaste das conexões sob mcromovimentos durante a mastigação e aumentar as dimensões das microfendas. A adaptação pilar-implante pode ser alterada pelos defeitos aumentando assim tamanho dos microgaps e consequentemente facilitando o acúmulo de biofilmes e fluidos orais. Failures in dental implants systems caused by biofilm accumulation, peri-implant inflammation and material degradation have been correlated to the misfit of implantabutment joints. The main aim of this study was to characterize the fit of Morse Taper implant-abutment joints by microscopic analyses. Surfaces of 10 Morse taper implant systems were inspected by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) before connection. After initial inspection, the implant-abutment systems were connected by applying a torque of 32 Ncm. For microgaps measurements by SEM, implant-abutment assemblies were embedded in epoxy resin and cross-sectioned at a perpendicular plane of the implant-abutment joint. Also, microhardness, nanoindentation and chemical analyses were performed at the implant-abutment joints. Concerning surfaces, defects originated from industrial processing were noticed on different areas of the abutment surfaces. On implant-abutment misfit measurements, the size of microgaps ranged from 0.5 μm up to 5.6 μm. Defects were also detected at implant-abutment microgaps that can increase the microgap size after connection. Microhardness tests revealed a higher hardness (360 ± 17 HV) for Ti6Al4V-based abutment when compared to implant composed of commercially pure titanium (320 ± 8 HV). The mismatch in mechanical properties between abutment and implant can increase the degradation of structural materials under micro-movements during mastication affecting the implant-abutment misfit and mechanical integrity of the implant-abutment joints during mastication. Defects on surfaces of abutments can intensify misfit of Morse taper implant joints. That might allow the penetration of oral microorganisms and fluids.

Full textAbstract:
In 1964, Tauer gave examples of countably many masas inside the hyperfinite II1von Neumann factor R. These masas were shown to be pairwise non-conjugate in R using a length invariant for the normalisers of semi-regular masas. A class of masas, the Tauer masas, is introduced consisting of all those masas obtained using her basic method of construction. The main body of this thesis is then concerned with examining the properties of these Tauer masas. In particular, the concepts of singularity, strong singularity and the weak asymptotic homomorphism property coincide for Tauer masas, and all Tauer mass have Pukánszky invariant {1}. Modern methods for calculating von Neumann algebras generated by normalisers are used to examine Tauer’s original examples, leading to shorter proofs of all of her results. Her initial example of a singular masa is studied in further detail. A generalisation of her semi-regular masas leads to the construction of an uncountable family of semi-regular masas of infinite length inside R. Examination of the Jones index of inclusions of the iterated normaliser algebras demonstrates that no pair of these masas can be conjugate by an automorphism of R. Centralising sequences for R lying inside masas are examined, with examples given to show that singular masas can be found containing non-trivial centralising sequences. An invariant, Γ(A), for a masa inside a II1 factor is introduced as the size of a maximal cut-down for which the resulting masa contains non-trivial centralising sequences. This invariant is then used to exhibit a d∞,2-continuous path of uncountably many strongly singular masas in R with the same Pukánszky invariant, no pair of which is conjugate by an automorphism of R. Various issues arising from these concepts are discussed, such as possible masas in Rω and the relationship between A-valued centralising sequences and automorphisms of R fixing A pointwise. Possible connections between this relative automorphism group and the Pukánskzy invariant will also be touched upon.

Analyse de l'écriture de Tahar Ben Jelloun comme résultat de la rencontre de la langue maternelle et de la langue française à différents niveaux: sémantique, phonétique, graphique. Cette rencontre prend la forme d'une interaction active entre langages et textes maghrébins et l'écrit en français. Ce processus dynamique donne lieu à des effets poétiques spécifiques: polyphonie, importance de l'hybride en tant que forme-sens, jeu d'oppositions entre étrange et familier. D'autre part, ces textes font partie du domaine de l'interculturel et pose de manière aigue une problématique de l'identité, notamment la question de l'autre. L’enjeu existentiel de cette écriture bilingue est de dire un "soi" individuel et collectif dans une langue-culture étrangèreAnalysis of the writing of Tahar Ben Jelloun as results of the crossing between his mother tongue language and the French one at different levels: semantics, phonetics and graphic. This crossing takes the shape of an interaction between French and Arabic (mainly North African) texts and languages. This dynamical process gives birth to specific poetical effects: polyphony, importance of hybrid as "shape-meaning" opposition playing between strange and familiar. On the other hand, these texts belong to the intercultural fields where the question is asked sharply about the problematical identity and mainly the phenomenon of the "other". The "existential" stake of this bilingual type of writing is to inject the individual and collective "oneself" in a foreign "language-culture"

This investigative thesis provides an overview of the structural and kinematic formation of the Low Tatras in Slovakia. Numerous geological and geomorphological data from previous studies of the researched area were available. These were processed in a graphical user interface ArcMap to produce the Geodynamic map of Low Tatras at a scale of 1:200 000. By illustrating geodetic, geomorphologic, geophysical and other similar data on this map, it was possible to undertake a detailed analysis of the area and allow an assessment of the overall tectonic activity. This revealed two regions with higher than normal stress levels and therefore an associated increase in the risk of future seismic activity.

A la lumiere de la question de l'intertextualite, l'etude des oeuvres "harrouda", "moha le fou, moha le sage"; " l'enfant de sable" et "la nuit sacree" de tahar ben jelloun nous a permis d'exprimer les remarques suivantes: sur le plan scriptural, l'auteur use des procedes modernes d'ecriture qu'il adopte a ses preoccupations romanesques et superpose a des formes - la halqa, le conte,. . . Emanant de son fond culturel. Aussi, les systemes scripturaux ne sont-ils pas astreints a de simples fonctions expressives mais sont eux-memes porteurs de sens. L'examen du contenu de nos textes revele l'existence d'un reseau de similitude qui n'est autre que la marque manifeste de la permanence du fond thematique de l'ecrivain. Sur le plan des personnages, l'auteur opte pour des symboles, des portes-paroles, des categories socio-culturelles et economiques et des personnages mythiques, "hors systeme" et atypiques tels que harrouda et moha. La langue employee constitue pour ben jelloun un espace ou l'arabe se glisse subtilement aupres du francais. Ainsi, sont reproduites des formules, des expressions des invocations a dieu, des prieres,. . . Traduites de l'arabe et qui sont representatives du patrimoine culturel marocain. Telle est la specificite des ecrits de tahar ben jellounThrough the question of intertextuality and based on the study of the novels "harrouda, "moha le fou, moha le sage", l'enfant de sable" and "la nuit sacree". By tahar ben jelloun, the following remarks can be made: at the level of textual strategies used in the novels, the author resorts to modern writing techniques that he applies to his novelistic concerns through his use of such popular forms as "halka", tales,. . . Emanating from his cultural environment. In ben jelloun's work, it becomes clear that the narrative techniques are not simply limited to expressive functions, but contribute to the production of meaning. The survey of the texts contents reveals the existence of a pattern which emerges as the characteristic stamp of the writer's thematic background. At the level of characterization, the author creates symbols, spokesmen, sociocultural and economic types, mythical, marginal and atypical characters such as harrouda and moha. For ben jelloun, the language employed constitutes a space where arabic creeps in subtly next to french. Thus, one finds that the author introduces saying, expressions, invocations to god, prayers,. . . Translated from arabic and which are representative of the moroccan cultural heritage. Such are textual characteristics peculiar to the work of tahar ben jelloun

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: The aim of this in vitro study was two part. The first being to assess and compare the amount of dentin removed by an instrument with a taper of 0.04 versus an instrument with a taper of 0.06 using the Edge Evolve® file system at different increments within the canal system. Secondly, this study evaluated whether instrumentation with either taper resulted in a remaining dentin thickness (RDT) of less than 0.3mm. If this RDT was imposed upon, fracture resistance was compromised. Both pre and post instrumentation measurements were taken of samples instrumented with the 0.04 and 0.06 tapered files. Methods: Ten maxillary premolars exhibiting Weine class III canal systems and minimal to no root canal curvature were mounted in an acrylic resin filled K-cube. Each acrylic resin cube was sectioned horizontally at 3, 6, 9, and 12mm increments from the apex. The K-cube is a device which allows the investigator to disassemble and then reassemble root slices in their original orientation. Dentin thickness was measured at three positions on each canal using the Zeiss Discovery V20 stereomicroscope. The sections were then reassembled into the K-cube. The ten premolar roots were separated into two groups. In half of the teeth the buccal canals were instrumented with 0.04 tapered files and the lingual canals instrumented with 0.06 tapered files. In the other half of the teeth, instrumentation was reversed: the buccal canals were instrumented with 0.06 tapered files and the lingual canals were instrumented with 0.04 tapered files. Root sections were again separated, and the remaining dentin thickness was measured. A repeated-measures mixed-model ANCOVA was performed to analyze the effect of taper on RDT. Results: The amount of dentin removed was statistically different between the two tapers (P=0.02). Across all of the slices and positions, the 0.04 tapered instruments had an average pre-post difference of 0.1313mm. The 0.06 tapered instruments had an average pre-post difference of 0.1672mm. None of the instruments imposed upon the recommended 0.3mm RDT. Conclusion: The 0.04 tapered files instrument with greater conservancy than the 0.06 tapered files. The 0.06 tapered files had their greatest effect on the canal in the 9mm and 12mm sections. However, neither taper imposed upon the recommended RDT for optimal fracture resistance within the apical 12mm root portion observed in this study.

Full textAbstract:
With more young adults requiring total hip
arthroplasties the need for bone saving implants becomes
more important. The Zimmer Fitmore is a new bone saving
implant that utilizes an implantation technique that
reduces the damage to the muscle tissue allowing for
patients to have a short recovery time as well as a new
design that allows it to rest on the medial cortex. There
has been anecdotal evidence that this device leads to early
revision within six months of implantation due to failures
occurring in the medial cortex. The main goal of this
study was to computationally model the Zimmer Fitmore and
compare it to the ML Taper to see if the failures are due
to the design of the implant. The models were created
using CT scans of the implants and the same implantation
process was simulated for each. Two sizes for the cortical
bone thickness, 4mm and 10mm, were used and contrasted with
each other. The 10mm cortical thickness model showed that
v
the strains experienced by the Zimmer Fitmore femur were
higher than that of the ML Taper. The 4mm model did not
fully complete the simulation, but the results that were
obtained showed an increased strain in Gruen zone 7. These
results show that the design, not implantation method,
could be to blame for the need for early revision when
using the Zimmer Fitmore.

Full textAbstract:
A volume equation for predicting individual tree volume, and a taper function for describing a stem profile were developed for a little known species, Styrax tonkinensis (Siam benzoin) in northern Laos. The species has high potential commercial value and can make an important contribution to the local economy. It can provide two different types of products, a non-wood product (benzoin resin) and timber. In Laos, the most important product is currently resin, and the use of timber for commercial purposes is rare. One reason is that information about the timber is not available. In Vietnam, on the other hand, the species is an import pulpwood species.
Data used in this study came from 73 trees. Trees were purposely selected to ensure coverage of a full range of tree sizes. Measurement was undertaken only on over-bark diameters due to some constraints, limitations and problems during the field data collection. However, due to the importance of under-bark volume for this species, a small available dataset was used to build a bark model as an interim guide to the errors associated with using over-bark models for estimating under-bark volumes. From this bark model, errors in estimating under-bark volumes of trees with diameters at breast height between 10cm and 17 cm were approximately 18%.
Nineteen individual volume models, and 7 individual taper functions were compared for bias and precision. Collective names for the volume equations tested include single-entry, double-entry, logarithmic, combined variables. Most volume models had similar bias but a few were clearly biased. The models with similar bias were further evaluated by four common statistics including bias, standard error of estimates, standard deviation of residuals and mean absolute deviation. The results showed that a five parameter model was ranked first, and was the most precise model. However, the magnitudes of difference in prediction errors between this model and other models, particularly the three parameter model were not significant. For practical purposes, the simpler model was preferred.
Seven taper functions tested here belong to three different groups including single taper equations, compatible taper equations and segmented taper equations. Evaluation of taper equations used the same residual analysis procedures and criteria as those applied with volume equations. Graphical residual analysis showed that most taper models had similar precision with their errors in diameter predictions being similar in range. However, some models showed obvious bias. The most highly ranked taper model was a compatible taper model of polynomial form. It was the least biased model. The second ranked model was a single, simple model. This latter model is relatively simple to apply, but it is not compatible with the volume model, yielding slightly different estimates of volume if it is integrated and rotated around the longitudinal axis of a tree. However, if the sole purpose is to describe tree taper, it is the best model to use.

All nyanställning av militär personal sker på absolut lägsta nivå, d.v.s. genom rekrytering ur innevarande ellertidigare värnpliktsomgångar. Vad innebär detta faktum för ytstridssystemet, ett system i snabb teknikutveckling ochdärmed med ett kraftigt reducerat behov av värnpliktig personal? Uppsatsens huvudsyfte är att identifiera ochanalysera de konsekvenser detta minskade värnpliktsunderlag har på ytstridssystemets utveckling och fortlevnad.För att undersöka denna problematik på bästa sätt bygger uppsatsen på en tredelad empiri. Inledningsvis görs engenomgång av befintlig statistik rörande värnpliktsvolymer samt ansökningar och antagningar tillYrkesofficersprogrammet. Avsikten med denna genomgång är att försöka finna en tydlig tendens förytstridssystemet som helhet. Därefter studeras samtida officiella handlingar rörande Försvarsmaktenspersonalförsörjning i syfte att undersöka vad som finns skrivet i ämnet. Avslutningsvis genomförs ett antal intervjuerdär samtliga respondenter är starkt knutna till huvudfrågeställningen, dock på olika nivåer och med olikautgångspunkter.Empirin analyseras mot teoretiska ramar som utgörs av Sandbergs och Targamas teori om tolkande och rationellakompetensansatser samt Axelssons modell över kompetensutvecklingens dimensioner. Uppsatsens slutsatser är flera,där den viktigaste är ett kraftigt ökat allmänt behov av flexibilitet vid rekrytering men framför allt inom detbefintliga skolsystemet.The main purpose of this essay has been to identify and analyse theconsequences of the diminishing numbers of conscripts on future SurfaceWarfare ships in Sweden. The essay has answered the following questions:How is the present recruitment for the Surface Warfare Flotillas beingconducted? What consequences of the limited number of conscripts can beidentified? How does this affect the staff and the competence support of theSurface Warfare Flotillas? How can these consequences be handled? The essayis based upon a hermeneutic approach. The theoretical framework of this essayis constituted by Sandberg’s and Targama’s theories on competence andlearning, using an interpretation method versus a rational method, andAxelsson’s theory on the dimensions of competence development. The essayrests upon interviews, protocols and statistics concerning recruitment, andofficial documents from the Swedish Government and the Swedish ArmedForces. The empirical research provides some results where the main area canbe stated to be the need for more flexibility - when it comes to recruiting aswell as in the school system as a whole. The essay finally recognizes that thenecessary conditions for creating better preconditions are indeed present.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of organizational policy changes within the Use-of-Force Continuum on taser usage and officer's perceptions of taser effectiveness. Tasers have been used by police since the 1970s and their use is increasing as the technology has improved. Data reveals that tasers are beneficial for controlling non-compliant suspects while preventing serious injuries and rarely has their use resulted in death. Much of the public controversy surrounding tasers centers on when and how often officers deploy them. Use of force data from 890 police citizen encounters during a two-year period was analyzed to examine how changes in organizational policy have affected taser deployments and how policy changes have affected taser use. The study's findings support that after the policy change, the frequency of taser use by officers decreased, while the levels of suspect resistance encountered by officers increased. The frequency and severity of suspect injuries did not change and the numbers of officers injured in use-of-force encounters also did not change. Survey response data from officers were compared to archival data, which revealed that while officers perceive an increased risk of harm to themselves as a result of the organizational policy change that was not supported in the findings. Officers did not perceive an increased risk of harm to suspects which was supported in the archival data findings. Officers also expressed a belief that the organizational change that placed the taser at a higher level on the Use-of-Force Continuum is appropriate for most use-of-force encounters. This study concludes with future directions and trends for taser use in law enforcement.Ph.D.

Ces caractéristiques sont mises en évidence par une analyse des récits dans la lumière de l’intertexte et du palimpseste en tant que modèle herméneutiqueThis research paper represents a study of a corpus of 7 novels written by Tahar Ben Jelloun, study realized by means of a paradigm of reading starting from the sand metaphor and its symbols which are recurrent in the writer’s work. It is a study which operates on a double level, that of an ontological project of the characters in search for meaning and that of writing strategies. The first part of this study, based methodologically on the theoretical works on the Imaginary, suggests an interpretation of the texts from the perspective of the obsessive problematic of identity. The impossibility of offering a unitary answer to the question: “Who am I?” leads to the representation of a broken world, dominated by existential anxiety and fear of time passing and erosion. The characters’ itinerary oscillates between the awareness of a lack of meaning, its search in real or dreamlike places of refuge, to find eventually a configuration of meaning, caught beyond appearances by surpassing contraries and by an epiphanic reversal of values, related to the search of the Sufi mystics. The second part analyses the particular writing processes: the willingness to keep the text unfinished, the oscillating movement between doing and undoing, resorting to other texts, the oral registers, everything converging to a poetics of oscillation, of doubt, of opening and resuming. These characteristics are emphasized by an analysis of the novels in the light of the inter-text and palimpsest as a hermeneutical model

Full textAbstract:
L'auteur etudie trois romans d'un des ecrivains les plus marquants de la nouvelle generation algerienne: tahar djaout. Ce sont: l'exproprie (1981), les rest de l'oiseleur (1984), les chercheurs d'os (1984). Cette etude d'un discours romanesque particulier repose sur quatre hypotheses theoriques. 1 l'analyse semantique du texte necessite la prise en compte des fonctions du langage. 2 la pretention d'etablir une grammaire de texte conduit necessairement a analyser l'enchainement des phrases et met en question le concept de dialogisme (refere a bakhtine). 3 les concepts de dialogue et de polyphonie conduisent a prendre en charge les phenomenes d'intertextualite et ceux d'enonciateur et, par la, l'heterogeneite du discours (ducrot et le centre de neuchatel). 4 l'etude rhetorique permet d'ordonner les inventaires. Partant d'enonces courts, "expressions figees subverties", la these envisage l'ubtertextualite de la composition, selon les demarches de genette; et met en cause le social, le culturel et l'historique. Puis elle suit le jeu des metaphores dans l'espace du texte et, parallelement, les procedes du rythme, ce double jeu permettant de decouvrir une heterogeneite qui a valeur de subversion. Le sujet apparait comme dechire dans une operation symbolique des dechirements du corps socialThe author has examined three novels by one of the most striking writers of the new algerian generation: tahar djaout. The study on a particular discourse of the novel is based upon four therotical hypothese: 1 the semantic analysis of the text requires the consideration of the fonctions of language. 2 the aim of establishing the grammar of a text necessarily leads to an analysis of the linking of sentences and questions bakhtins' concept of "dialogism". 3 the concepts of dialogue and of polyphony must take into account the phenomena of intertextuality and those of "enonciateurs" and thus the heterogeneity of discourse (ducrot et centre de neuchatel). 4 the rhetorical study allows the structuring of the inventories. On the basis of short utterances, "subverted idiosyncratic phrases", the thesis considers the intertextuality of the composition accordring to the procedures of genette; and involves social, cultural and historical questions. It then follows the set of metaphers within the text, and simultaneously the technics of rhythm; this twofold process allows the discovery of a certain heterogeneity wich here acquires a subversive dimension. The subject appears according to the divisions of society

C the logical : an omnipotent sender is the opposite of a powerless hero. The economical claims remaining silent, an apologetic model is adopted. The resolutions lay down antithetical contents, an assertion the logic denies. Ii - "a poetics of the ideology" : a the politics : facing the bourgeoisie, the oppressed show the marks of the earth. The tradition is essential since it puts the body down into a legislated reality. An eclectic thought linking a pantheistic islam to the liberal reformism. B the sexuality : with the circumcision, the father castrates the little male from a possible desire. But the paternal idol remains grinning unpleasantly because the subject wants it so. The onanism allows to live out the sexuality. C the writing : it partakes of the reification, but the texts pretend to quote the popular "word". Some similarities become apparent with the works of d. Chraibi. Nevertheless, are t. Ben jelloun's ones representative of morocco?

Full textAbstract:
A substantial body of scientific and medical research has examined the relationship between conductive energy devices and their physical risk to humans. This phenomenological study focused on the psychological impact of Taser utilization in police officers. This research explored how the experience of using a Taser in the line of duty affected officers from the conceptual framework of stress inoculation training and its applicability to Taser certification; the typical mental processes associated with using less-lethal weapons, perceptions of Taser training; and, the preparation provided in training for citizen injuries and deaths. Fifteen officers who had deployed a Taser were included as participants. The sample consisted of 2 randomized groups of 5, and 1 convenience group of 5 officers involved in Taser-related deaths. Data were collected through digitally recorded interviews of the officers' lived experiences. Data were analyzed using a 5-step method of constant comparison to develop and code themed clusters using the officers' own words. Findings showed officers believed the Taser was the best non-lethal device available but they preferred not using a Taser on citizens. In addition, Taser training may not be legally sufficient as defined in relevant court cases. A recommendation is that stress inoculation segments should be included in Taser training courses. Findings indicate Taser-related deaths have the potential to cause extreme stress and trauma in the officers, changing their lives and that of their families forever.

Full textAbstract:
Tahar Djaout, assassiné en 1993, est intimement rattaché à la tragédie algérienne de la fin du siècle dernier et est l'un des écrivains les plus célébrés dans son pays pour son martyr. Les nombreux témoignages biographiques sur cet écrivain, poète, nouvelliste et journaliste, ont conduit à réduire et politiser son œuvre littéraire. Pour montrer la richesse de sa création artistique, cette étude se propose d'explorer l'imaginaire et les topographies de ses œuvres, romanesques et poétiques, ainsi que le rapport qu'elles tissent entre l'espace citadin et l'espace rural, point nodal et complexe de l'identité algérienne et de l'auteur. Au lieu d'une binarité rigide qui régirait le rapport ruralité-citadinité, Histoires d'espaces se propose d'interroger les systèmes de valeur qui en organisent la signification dans l’œuvre en s'arrêtant sur les configurations spatiales et leurs variations, mais aussi en analysant les temporalités respectives de la diégèse et de l'énonciation. Les différentes configurations des temporalités et des espaces avec leurs variations ne sont pas sans éclairer l'imaginaire et la place de la culture orale dans la production littéraire de Djaout et révéler ainsi un point de vue constitutif de sa vision esthétique. Sur un autre plan, son œuvre est traversée par la relation qu'entretient le roman moderne, quels que soient le champ littéraire et l'époque, avec l'imaginaire rural dans un monde en transformation depuis la révolution industrielle. La mythologie urbaine de la modernité du roman est alors remise en cause pour laisser apparaître « le spectre » de l'imaginaire rural qui la hante, là où ne l'on attend pasAssassinated in 1993, Tahar Djaout is intimately linked to the Algerian tragedy of the end of last century and is one of the most celebrated writers in his country for his martyrdom. A writer, poet, short story writer and journalist, Tahar Djaout’s many biographical accounts led to mitigating and politicizing his literary work. In order to show the richness of his artistic creation, this study intends to explore the imaginary and the topographies of his works, fiction and poetry as well as the report they weave between the urban area and the rural area, the complex and nodal point of Algerian identity and the identity of the author himself. Instead of a rigid pairing that would determine the rurality-urbanity relation, Spaces Stories intends to examine the value systems that organize its meaning in the literary work not only by emphasizing the spacial configurations and their variations, but also by analyzing the respective temporalities of diegesis and enunciation. The various configurations of temporalities and spaces with their variations in Djaout’s literary production illuminate the popular imagination as well as the oral culture ; in this way, revealing his aesthetic vision’s constituent viewpoint. On another side, his work is spanned by the relation that the modern novel maintains – whatever the era and literary field – with rural imaginary in an ever-changing world since the industrial revolution. The urban mythology of modernity in the novel is then questioned to reveal ‘the specter’ of the rural imagination that haunts it where we least expect it

Topping is a precommercial thinning (PCT) method where secondary stems are cut higher above the ground compared to conventional PCT. The secondary stems continue to live for a period and are supposed to compete with the main stems and promote their quality. The objective of the study was to compare the effect of PCT on height and diameter growth between topping and conventional PCT. The study also analysed the relationship between height and diameter growth and the number of stems after PCT. Nine topped stands and six conventional precommercially thinned stands were visited between February 28th and March 5. One sample plot per hectare was laid out in the investigated stands. In every sample plot the number of stems was counted and five main stems were measured for height, height growth since PCT, diameter and diameter growth since PCT. The results showed significantly higher effect on height growth after topping as compared to conventional PCT but no significant difference in the effect of diameter growth between topping and conventional PCT. After PCT the H/D quote (height/diameter quote) was higher (less taper) in topped stands and lower (larger taper) in conventional PCT.

Dold, Florian. "The GNU Taler system : practical and provably secure electronic payments." Thesis, Rennes 1, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019REN1S008/document.
Full textAbstract:
Les nouveaux protocoles de réseautage et cryptographiques peuvent considérablement améliorer les systèmes de paiement électroniques en ligne. Le présent mémoire porte sur la conception, la mise en œuvre et l’analyse sécuritaire du GNU Taler, un système de paiement respectueux de la vie privée conçu pour être pratique pour l’utilisation en ligne comme méthode de (micro-)paiement, et en même temps socialement et moralement responsable. La base technique du GNU Taler peut être dû à l’e-cash de David Chaum. Notre travail va au-delà de l’e-cash de Chaum avec un changement efficace, et la nouvelle notion de transparence des revenus garantissant que les marchands ne peuvent recevoir de manière fiable un paiement d’un payeur non fiable que lorsque leurs revenus du paiement est visible aux autorités fiscales. La transparence des revenus est obtenue grâce à l’introduction d’un protocole d’actualisation donnant lieu à un changement anonyme pour un jeton partiellement dépensé sans avoir besoin de l’introduction d’une évasion fiscale échappatoire. De plus, nous démontrons la sécurité prouvable de la transparence anonyme de nos revenus e-cash, qui concerne en plus l’anonymat habituel et les propriétés infalsifiables de l’e-cash, ainsi que la conservation formelle des fonds et la transparence des revenus. Notre mise en œuvre du GNU Taler est utilisable par des utilisateurs non-experts et s’intègre à l’architecture du web moderne. Notre plateforme de paiement aborde une série de questions pratiques telles que la prodigue des conseils aux clients, le mode de remboursement, l’intégration avec les banques et les chèques “know-your-customer (KYC)”, ainsi que les exigences de sécurité et de fiabilité de la plateforme web. Sur une seule machine, nous réalisons des taux d’opérations qui rivalisent avec ceux des processeurs de cartes de crédit commerciaux globaux. Pendant que les crypto-monnaies basées sur la preuve de travail à l’instar de Bitcoin doivent encore être mises à l’échelle pour servir de substituant aux systèmes de paiement établis, d’autres systèmes plus efficaces basés sur les Blockchains avec des algorithmes de consensus plus classiques pourraient avoir des applications prometteurs dans le secteur financier. Nous faisons dans la conception, la mise en œuvre et l’analyse de la Byzantine Set Union Consensus, un protocole de Byzantine consensus qui s’accorde sur un (Super-)ensemble d’éléments à la fois, au lieu d’accepter en séquence les éléments individuels sur un ensemble. Byzantine Set consensus peut être utilisé comme composante de base pour des chaînes de blocs de permissions, où (à l’instar du style Nakamoto consensus) des blocs entiers d’opérations sont convenus à la fois d’augmenter le taux d’opérationWe describe the design and implementation of GNU Taler, an electronic payment system based on an extension of Chaumian online e-cash with efficient change. In addition to anonymity for customers, it provides the novel notion of income transparency, which guarantees that merchants can reliably receive a payment from an untrusted payer only when their income from the payment is visible to tax authorities. Income transparency is achieved by the introduction of a refresh protocol, which gives anonymous change for a partially spent coin without introducing a tax evasion loophole. In addition to income transparency, the refresh protocol can be used to implement Camenisch-style atomic swaps, and to preserve anonymity in the presence of protocol aborts and crash faults with data loss by participants. Furthermore, we show the provable security of our income-transparent anonymous e-cash, which, in addition to the usual anonymity and unforgeability proper- ties of e-cash, also formally models conservation of funds and income transparency. Our implementation of GNU Taler is usable by non-expert users and integrates with the modern Web architecture. Our payment platform addresses a range of practical issues, such as tipping customers, providing refunds, integrating with banks and know-your-customer (KYC) checks, as well as Web platform security and reliability requirements. On a single machine, we achieve transaction rates that rival those of global, commercial credit card processors. We increase the robustness of the exchange—the component that keeps bank money in escrow in exchange for e-cash—by adding an auditor component, which verifies the correct operation of the system and allows to detect a compromise or misbehavior of the exchange early. Just like bank accounts have reason to exist besides bank notes, e-cash only serves as part of a whole payment system stack. Distributed ledgers have recently gained immense popularity as potential replacement for parts of the traditional financial industry. While cryptocurrencies based on proof-of-work such as Bitcoin have yet to scale to be useful as a replacement for established payment systems, other more efficient systems based on Blockchains with more classical consensus algorithms might still have promising applications in the financial industry. We design, implement and analyze the performance of Byzantine Set Union Consensus (BSC), a Byzantine consensus protocol that agrees on a (super-)set of elements at once, instead of sequentially agreeing on the individual elements of a set. While BSC is interesting in itself, it can also be used as a building block for permissioned Blockchains, where—just like in Nakamoto-style consensus—whole blocks of transactions are agreed upon at once, increasing the transaction rate
