A construção do direito à saúde no Brasil

O direito à saúde recebeu - pela primeira vez - tratamento constitucional no brasil em 1988, fruto de grande participação popular. Neste estudo, se busca compreender a extensão dessa afirmação e verificar sua implementação normativa e jurisprudencial. A partir do estudo da evolução dos conceitos de saúde e de direito, concluiu-se que o direito à saúde deve implicar a constante participação popular para que possa ser delimitado. Verificou-se, também, que o arcabouço normativo vem sendo construído em conformidade com as exigências constitucionais. Quanto à construção jurisprudencial, se percebeu que ela vem acontecendo de forma errática e que os tribunais superiores raramente enfrentam a discussão da política de saúde desenhada na Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988. Concluiu-se que a afirmação constitucional tem demonstrado vigor, haja vista o grande desenvolvimento normativo conforme `compreensão contemporânea; e que o controle judicial da realização da política sanitária é ainda incipiente

Práticas corporais e grande saúde: um encontro possível

Physical Activity produces health! When admitting the precocious veracity that the affirmation introduces, we reconstruct it in ideological dimension to put again the intentions of the physical activity on the scope of the health. To support this displacement, we search endorsement in the concept of Great Health forged in the philosophy of Nietzsche and of this concept we launch considerations about body practices to argue the care from physiological imperatives, worried about the vital necessities of the body. These possibilities only appear when it gave power to the meeting of the subject with himself and with the other - as operated in the body practices context. It is the quality of this meeting that allows trying the Great Health.

Real-Time Voltage Regulation in Power Distribution System Using Fuzzy Control

Two different fuzzy approaches to voltage control in electric power distribution systems are introduced in this paper. The real-time controller in each case would act on power transformers equipped with under-load tap changers. Learning systems are employed to turn the voltage-control relays into adaptive devices. The scope of this study has been limited to the power distribution substation, and the voltage measurements and control actions are carried out on the secondary bus. The capacity of fuzzy systems to handle approximate data, together with their unique ability to interpret qualitative information, make it possible to design voltage-control strategies that satisfy the requirements of the Brazilian regulatory bodies and the real concerns of the electric power distribution companies. Fuzzy control systems based on these two strategies have been implemented and the test results were highly satisfactory.

Fuzzy Control System for Voltage Regulation In Power Transformers

A fuzzy control strategy for voltage regulation in electric power distribution systems is introduced in this article. This real-time controller would act on power transformers equipped with under-load tap changers. The fuzzy system was employed to turn the voltage-control relays into adaptive devices. The scope of the present study has been limited to the power distribution substation, and both the voltage measurements and control actions are carried out on the secondary bus. The capacity of fuzzy systems to handle approximate data, together with their unique ability to interpret qualitative information, make it possible to design voltage control strategies that satisfy both the requirements of the Brazilian regulatory bodies and the real concerns of the electric power distribution companies. A prototype based on the fuzzy control strategy proposed in this paper has also been implemented for validation purposes and its experimental results were highly satisfactory.
