Universo encantado do cuidado na autopoiese docente: uma viagem epistemológica transdisciplinar

The health transition experienced in Brazilian health care model requires a metamorphosis in human and society, placing new demands on health and education. The Faculty of Science, Culture and Extension of Rio Grande do Norte (Facex), aware of their responsibilities to the Health System, which brings the principle of comprehensiveness as its structural axis, dared to implement a course of nursing in complex thinking and Experiential Pedagogy Humanescente with curriculum inter / transdisciplinary. For deployment of proprosta was not enough to reform thinking of educators, there was a need corporalizar new teaching practices that are aimed at the integral formation of human beings. In this context, emerged the workshop on Human Education autopoietic, self-forming area of the educator, where he developed an Action Research Existential (PA-E) which enabled experience, describe and analyze how the human autopoietic educators could contribute to the practice educational humanescente transdisciplinary curriculum project. Were worked out in meetings, knowledge necessary to practice the transdisciplinary 1st Meeting - learn to create; 2nd Meeting - learn to recognize the laws of nature with emphasis on complexity theory, 3rd Meeting - learn to organize, 4th meeting - namely autoestruturar themselves; 5th Meeting - know how to choose, 6th Meeting - knowing innovate 7th Meeting - namely exchange. Next an autobiographical perspective, we chose the metaphorical possibility to narrate the ways and strategies covered by the author and apprentice in the company of the Little Prince de Saint-Exupery, in search of a sensible pedagogical practice complex, which promotes re-enchant transdisicplinar education. The route involved five methodological connections: a literature review which relate to training for care in undergraduate nursing: the study of learning processes that drive the formation humanopoiética, emphasizing the relationship that involves the complexity and embodiment in the educational process transdisciplinary, highlighting the analysis of what is to learn from the findings of biosciences and recent cognitive theories of Maturana and Varela, the description of the interdisciplinary curriculum of the nursing course of Facex and Training Workshop, Human autopoietic, with emphasis on Experiential Education Humanescente; the report of seven meetings of the Workshops (cocoon), recording the experiences and listening to educators (luminescent butterflies), the final reflections with learning opportunized. Experientiality lived through, the expressions and words, educators say the influence of workshops for their teaching practices, highlighting it as a space for selforganizing, creating, learning and enchantment, and can identify the workshop as a place of transformation necessary for deployment an interdisciplinary curriculum. The knowledge emerging from the study indicate the need for permanent spaces of self, in which the educator learns from its body, between cognitive processes and vital, and in the experiences of their formative process the opportunity to act on the dimensions of knowing and being

Sistema de supervisão aérea baseado em navegação visual para detecção de anomalias em instalações de petróleo e gás

This work deals with the development of a prototype of a helicopter quadrotor for monitoring applications in oil facilities. Anomaly detection problems can be resolved through monitoringmissions performed by a suitably instrumented quadrotor, i.e. infrared thermosensors should be embedded. The proposed monitoring system aims to reduce accidents as well as to make possible the use of non-destructive techniques for detection and location of leaks caused by corrosion. To this end, the implementation of a prototype, its stabilization and a navigation strategy have been proposed. The control strategy is based on dividing the problem into two control hierarchical levels: the lower level stabilizes the angles and the altitude of the vehicle at the desired values, while the higher one provide appropriate references signals to the lower level in order the quadrotor performs the desired movements. The navigation strategy for helicopter quadrotor is made using information provided by a acquisition image system (monocular camera) embedded onto the helicopter. Considering that the low-level control has been solved, the proposed vision-based navigation technique treats the problem as high level control strategies, such as, relative position control, trajectory generation and trajectory tracking. For the position control we use a control technique for visual servoing based on image features. The trajectory generation is done in a offline step, which is a visual trajectory composed of a sequence of images. For the trajectory tracking problem is proposed a control strategy by continuous servovision, thus enabling a navigation strategy without metric maps. Simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the proposal

A tessitura da memória em o vendedor de passados de José Eduardo Agualusa

In the study of African literature in Portuguese language, the theme importance of memory is done by contact those literary works have with the context in which they operate. This study aims to reflect how memory as social element becomes an agent of the composition of literary structure in the O Vendedor de Passados (2004), by José Eduardo Agualusa. Therefore, we have as reference the critical method developed by Antonio Candido (1976), regarding the critical dialectic, in order to understand how such a throwback acts in the structuring of the romance in a relationship with both structural and thematic elements. Firstly, it presents a panoramic reading the Angolan literary scene in the post-independence, relating this context with the route of writing of José Eduardo Agualusa. Then it performs the analysis of the relationships between narratives categories - narrator, characters, space, time - and the memorial element, keeping in mind that these categories would be constructed in dialogue with the memory. Lastly, there is the reflection on the dynamics between fiction and reality apprehended in novelistic discourse in which a seller of past figures in an analysis that takes place from the skeptical look on this work. As a theoretical approach, we highlight mainly readings: Hampaté-Bâ (2010), Laura Padilla (2007), Tania Macêdo (2008) for the observation of the specific African context quickened in the novel; Tedesco (2004), Halbwachs (2006), Le Goff (2003) regarding the conceptualisation of memory; and Landesman (2006), Krause (2004), Gai (1997) in cutting the skeptical outlook with which the romance dialogues

Efeitos do alongamento e do aquecimento no desempenho isocinético e na atividade eletromiográfica do músculo bíceps femoral ensaio clínico randomizado

To evaluate the effects of warm-up and stretching, singly or combined, on isokinetic performance and electromyographic activity of the biceps femoris. Materials and methods: Sixty-four volunteers of both sexes, with mean age of 23,1 ± 3,5 years and mean body mass index of 23,5 ± 2,5 Kg/m2 were randomly assigned into 4 groups: control, warm-up (stationary bicycle for 10 minutes), stretching (4 sets of 30 seconds of hamstring muscles static stretching) and warm-up + stretching. All the volunteers were submitted to evaluation pre and post-intervention of the muscle latency time and biceps femoris RMS and the passive torque, peak torque and power of the hamstring muscles. Results: The warm-up + stretching group had reduction of muscle latency time. There was a reduction of RMS during passive torque evaluation in stretching group. The RMS during isometric evaluation was reduced in all experimental groups. The RMS during eccentric evaluation showed reduction in control and warm-up + stretching groups. The passive torque and the eccentric peak torque had no significant differences pre to post-intervention in any group. There was reduction in isometric peak torque in all groups. Conclusion: The warm-up and stretching, when applied in combination can reduce the muscle latency time; stretching protocol promoted neural changes; the protocols used did not alter the muscle viscoelastic properties

As vidas e as mortes de Jararaca: narrações de uma devoção popular no Nordeste Brasileiro

Este artigo parte de um estudo etnográfico da devoção popular ao cangaceiro Jararaca em Mossoró, Rio Grande do Norte, morto pela polícia local em 1927. Seu objetivo é destacar os ritos que manifestam e suportam tal devoção, sobretudo em seus aspectos verbais: testemunhos, narrações hagiográficas e fatos históricos tidos como reais - principalmente os fatos que cercaram a morte do cangaceiro e suas proezas no cangaço - que dão margem à reelaboração da identidade social do morto, de modo a aproximar sua vida do modelo do Robin Hood, o bom bandido, e sua morte do modelo do martírio cristão. Assim, ele pode tornar-se um santo funerário.

Violência e sagrado: o que no criminoso anuncia o santo?

Este artigo apresenta um exame preliminar de dois cultos religiosos populares que ocorrem atualmente no Nordeste do Brasil. Em dois cemitérios, no Rio Grande do Norte, o cangaceiro Jararaca e o ladrão homicida Baracho (espécie de ‘serial killer’, conhecido como ‘matador de motoristas’), são objetos de devoção religiosa por parte de crentes que afirmam ter alcançado milagres por seu intermédio ou que acreditam que virão a alcançá-los por meio de promessas que então, à beira de seus túmulos, não hesitam em fazer. A fé em seus milagres convive com a memória dos feitos dos bandidos que foram em vida, narrados com um misto de admiração e reprovação moral. O tradicional modelo do bandido social, que rouba para dar aos pobres, vem então em seu socorro, de modo a permitir uma continuidade entre o passado criminoso e o presente ‘santificado’. Dentre os fatores centrais nesse processo de ‘santificação’ do bandido, segundo o discurso dos entrevistados, estão a morte violenta e o sofrimento físico e moral a ela associados. O quadro esboçado aqui mostra-nos que se trata de santos muito especiais, isto é, santos precários, posto que sua santidade é objeto de constante controvérsia e contestação mesmo por aqueles que acreditam em seu poder de operar milagres. E parece ser mesmo isso o que os torna tão interessantes, mesmo do ponto de vista dos seus adeptos.

Espiritismo e Apoio Social: o princípio da universalidade aplicado ao Departamento de Assistência e Promoção Social em dois Centros Espíritas de Natal/RN

A presente pesquisa tem como objeto de estudo o campo religioso espírita no aspecto de sócio-espiritual, junto aos trabalhadores do Departamento de Assistência Social em duas instituições: O Centro Espírita Irmãos do Caminho e Grupo Espírita Oscar Nelson, para tanto analisando comparativamente aspectos de duas instituições espíritas na cidade de Natal, respectivamente com 27 e 46 anos de funcionamento. O critério de escolha das referidas casas foi pela relevância das atividades sociais e assistenciais desenvolvidas pelas mesmas. O que se quer é verificar se existe a consciência desses trabalhadores em relação à universalidade na sua prática de acolher a todos que adentram em suas instituições, independente de religião que professem ou se expressam preconceitos ou qualquer intolerância em relação aos assistidos no Departamento de Assistência Social. Assim, compreender as casas espíritas como sistema de apoio para as pessoas em suas enfermidades quer sejam físicas, psicológicas ou espirituais, levando em conta princípios de moralidade

Métodos estatísticos recursivos aplicados ao problema de estimação de vazão de gás em plantas de Plunger-lift

This work has as main objective to find mathematical models based on linear parametric estimation techniques applied to the problem of calculating the grow of gas in oil wells. In particular we focus on achieving grow models applied to the case of wells that produce by plunger-lift technique on oil rigs, in which case, there are high peaks in the grow values that hinder their direct measurement by instruments. For this, we have developed estimators based on recursive least squares and make an analysis of statistical measures such as autocorrelation, cross-correlation, variogram and the cumulative periodogram, which are calculated recursively as data are obtained in real time from the plant in operation; the values obtained for these measures tell us how accurate the used model is and how it can be changed to better fit the measured values. The models have been tested in a pilot plant which emulates the process gas production in oil wells
