This paper is about a PhD thesis and includes the study and analysis of the performance of an onshore wind energy conversion system. First, mathematical models of a variable speed wind turbine with pitch control are studied, followed by the study of different controller types such as integer-order controllers, fractional-order controllers, fuzzy logic controllers, adaptive controllers and predictive controllers and the study of a supervisor based on finite state machines is also studied. The controllers are included in the lower level of a hierarchical structure composed by two levels whose objective is to control the electric output power around the rated power. The supervisor included at the higher level is based on finite state machines whose objective is to analyze the operational states according to the wind speed. The studied mathematical models are integrated into computer simulations for the wind energy conversion system and the obtained numerical results allow for the performance assessment of the system connected to the electric grid. The wind energy conversion system is composed by a variable speed wind turbine, a mechanical transmission system described by a two mass drive train, a gearbox, a doubly fed induction generator rotor and by a two level converter.

O alcoolismo é uma doença com um potencial de infligir sofrimento enorme, interferindo com todas as dimensões do indivíduo, assim como em todos os quadrantes da sociedade. Este relatório expressa a preocupação com a problemática, e descreve o trabalho desenvolvido ao longo de um ano na área da saúde mental e psiquiátrica por um enfermeiro. Através da criação de uma consulta de enfermagem, desenvolveram-se um conjunto de intervenções de enfermagem com o intuito de diminuir factores de risco e potenciar factores de protecção nos indivíduos com comportamentos aditivos face ao consumo de bebidas alcoólicas. A intencionalidade terapêutica incidiu sobre a reconstrução ou reorganização da vida nomeadamente nos seguintes aspectos: restabelecimento das capacidades relacionais com o seu meio, e estabilização num novo estilo de vida de abstinência alcoólica. Após intervenção observaram-se ganhos de saúde para um quinto dos utentes atendidos. Esta avaliação contudo está comprometida pela qualidade dos registos disponíveis. Concluindo-se que o projecto não se esgotou, pois este relatório permitiu uma identificação de algumas fragilidades a corrigir, nomeadamente a sistematização de registos clínicos, uma abordagem inicial que permita maior ancoragem (taxas de abandono superiores a 50%) e a introdução de um sistema de acompanhamento remoto no pós alta; ABSTRACT: Alcoholism is a disease with an enormous potential to inflict pain, interfering with all individual dimensions, and also with all sections of society. This work expresses the concern with this problematic and describes the work developed along a year in the area of mental and psychiatric health by a nurse. Through the creation of a nursing appointment, a set of nursing interventions were developed in order to reduce the factors of risk and potentiate factors of protection in the individual with addicted behaviours to alcoholic beverages consumption. Therapeutic intentionality focused on the reconstruction or reorganization of life on the following aspects: reestablishment of connecting abilities with their social environment, and consolidation of a new alcoholic abstinent life style. After the intervention we could observe some improvement on the health of a fifth of the users who were attended. However, this evaluation is compromised by the quality of the available records. We can conclude that the project is not exhausted since this work allowed the identification of some fragilities that could be corrected, namely the systematization of clinic records, a more anchoring initial approach (dropout rates exceeding 50%) and the introduction of a remote aftercare supervision system.

O presente estudo aborda a problemática dos alunos de risco no 2° Ciclo da E.B. 2,3 Ana de Castro Osório, no ano letivo 2004/2005. Na dimensão teórica são referenciadas algumas questões de Organização Escolar (escola reflexiva, autonomia de escola, gestores intermédios e supervisão escolar, o papel do Diretor de Turma, o Projeto Curricular de Escola, algumas linhas orientadoras da política educativa portuguesa, no período em que decorre a elaboração desta investigação) e abordados alguns aspetos gerais dos pré-adolescentes, diversos conceitos de risco, a ação de diversas entidades com competência na área da infância e juventude, o papel da família e a relação desta com a escola. Foi utilizada a metodologia do “Estudo Caso”, no decurso da qual foram analisados documentos internos da escola e elaborados instrumentos de recolha de dados (questionários aplicados aos Alunos e aos seus Diretores de Turma). No tratamento das informações de natureza quantitativa, utilizou-se o programa informático Excel, enquanto nas questões abertas procedeu-se à análise de conteúdo. Em síntese, concluiu-se que: a) um terço dos alunos que frequentava o 2° Ciclo do Ensino Básico, foi sinalizado como “aluno de risco”. Cerca de 75% era do 5° Ano de Escolaridade. Os fatores de risco que mais se destacam são: assiduidade irregular, desmotivação/desinteresse/apatia, défice de atenção e concentração, indisciplina e retenções sucessivas no seu percurso escolar. A família é pouco participativa. b) a resposta curricular dá-se essencialmente dentro da sala de aula; c) a resposta organizacional assenta essencialmente nalgumas medidas previstas nos documentos legislativos. Na última parte do trabalho deixamos expressas as conclusões do estudo mais pormenorizadas, bem como algumas recomendações/sugestões que eventualmente, poderão orientar posteriores investigações. /ABSTRACT - The risk students on a 2nd Cycle of classroom of the E.B. 2, 3 Ana de Castro Osório, during academic year of 2004/2005: A Case study The present study attempts to assess risk students on a 2nd Cycle (Sth and 6th grades) classroom of the “E.B. 2, 3 Ana de Castro Osório” Public School during the academic year of 2004/2005. On a theoretical scale, are assessed some questions about the Classroom Organization (reflexive school, school autonomy, intermediate directors and school supervision, the role of the Class Tutor, the School Curricular Project, some guidelines about the Portuguese education policy during the period when this study took place), and was also assessed some general aspects of preadolescents, risk concepts, and actions taken by various organizations specialized in the areas of childhood and youth, the role of the family and the interrelation between the family and the school. It was used a “Case Study” methodology during which was assessed school documents of this particularly school, and data collecting instruments (Student-applied and Class Tutor-applied questionnaires). On dealing with quantitative data, it was used the Excel application, while for the open questions was assessed by its contents. In brief, it was concluded that: a) a third of students that attended the 2nd Cycle Basic Education schools revealed to be “risk students”. Around 75% of them were 5th grade students. Among the most important risk factors are: irregular attendance, unmotivated/aloofness /apathy, lack of attention and concentration, indiscipline and successive retentions during their education pathway. The family is scarcely participative. b) The curricular response is normally given within the classroom; c) the organizational response lies mostly on some measures included in government documents. On the last part of the paper, we focus on more detailed conclusions, as well as give recommendations/suggestions which may eventually be of guidance to future studies.
