Jean de La Taille e Gil Vicente: dois casos de paratexto imagético

Propor à leitura dois paratextos imagéticos: o retrato de Jean de La Taille, composto de um medalhão oval que contém um epigrama, e a imagem in absentia de Gil Vicente, que se apresenta sob a forma de um enquadramento retangular do qual participam motivos ornamentais e igualmente um epigrama. A leitura destas imagens autorais apresenta a hipótese de uma representação visual, ou mesmo icônica, da atitude literária de dois dramaturgos que se apresentam ao leitor, ao mesmo tempo em que se presentificam, a fim de indicar a maneira mais conveniente de se aproximar da obra - processo essencialmente retórico conhecido sob a apelação de captatio benevolentiae. Palavras-chave: Retrato; paratexto; imagem; representação; interpelação; persuasão; figuração.

Disposição introduzida em cama

O presente modelo se refere a uma cama especialmente desenvolvida para receber doentes com cólera, que consiste de uma superfície côncava (1) para apoio do colchão (2), ambos dotados de orifício central (3), sendo o da cama revestido de fórmica e em conexão com um suporte (4), retangular, fixado sob a dita cama, em forma de U" para sustentar o balde (5) coletor de fezes; dito colchão (2) revestido por um lençol de plástico (6) descartável, com uma manga prensada (7) no centro, que deve passar pelo orifício (3) para conduzir as fezes líqúidas até o balde (5).

Máquina para a nucleação de pré-trincas de fadiga em corpos de prova

Compreendida basicamente pela placa suporte retangular (2) sustentada pelos parafusos (1), sobre a qual são apoiadas as paredes de sustentação (5) fixadas à placa (2) pelos parafusos (3), sendo que ditas paredes (5) possuem um furo para passagem do eixo (19), ancorado pelos rolamentos (18), cuja extremidade é provida do flange (20) fixado pelo parafuso (24), o acoplamento (21) e o flange (22) do motor, fixado pelo parafuso (23).

Dispersal of Cotesia flavipes in sugarcane field and implications for parasitoid releases

Diatraea saccharalis Fabr. (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is a major sugarcane pest in Brazil. The management of infested areas is based on the release of Cotesia flavipes (Cameron) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), a parasitoid of D. saccharalis larvae, but there are doubts about the effectiveness of C. flavipes, primarily regarding its rate of dispersal in sugarcane fields. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the dispersal of C. flavipes in a sugarcane field and suggest a release method that provides higher parasitoid efficiency. The study was carried out in four areas of approximately 1 ha, in which stalk pieces containing 20 D. saccharalis larvae were distributed in a rectangular grid, and 12,000 C. flavipes adults were released at four points, that were 50 m apart and 25 m from the field border. Three days later, the D. saccharalis larvae were recovered and kept in the laboratory until they reached pupal stage or C. flavipes emergence. Parasitism varied from 13.2% to 42.8%. The random distribution of parasitized larvae was found in one assay. In three areas, the parasitized larvae showed an aggregated distribution, with a range of 15 to 25 m. Since the parasite's success is directly linked to parasitoid dispersion, it would be interesting to move the release points to 30 m from each other because the dispersal may happen in a 15 m radius.

Método de pontos interiores no planejamento ótimo do tratamento de câncer por radioterapia

The Medical Physics has been developing very fast due to the progress of the technologies and to the increase of the concerns with cure of diseases. One of the Medical Physics main performances at the present time is the use of ionizing radiations for cancer treatment, especially, services as Radiotherapy. The radiotherapy technique uses ionizing radiation with therapeutic end of cancer controls, avoiding your proliferation and it worsens of the patient. For the treatment a radiation bunch is used, with rectangular form, that it passes through the different types of tissues of the patient's body, and depending on the attenuation and of the depth of the fabrics, a great amount of energy is deposited inside in different points of the body. Like this, to plan this treatment type it should be obtained the dimension of the distribution and dose absorption along the volume. For this, it is necessary in the planning of the treatment of the cancer for radiotherapy to build isodose curves, which are lines that represent points of same amount of dose to be deposited in the area to be treated. To aid the construction of the curves of form isodose to reach the best result in the planning of the treatment, in other words, a great planning, providing the maximum of dose in the tumor and saving the healthy and critical organs, it has been using mathematical tools and computational. A plan of cancer treatment for radiotherapy is considered great when all the parameters that involve the treatment, be them physical or biological, they were investigated and adapted individually for the patient. For that, is considered the type and the location of the tumor, worrying about the elimination of the cancer without damaging the healthy tissue of the treated area, mainly the risk organs, which are in general very sensitive to the radiations. This way, the optimization techniques... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Estudo da dispersão pós-alimentar em larvas de moscas-varejeiras via autômatos celulares

In this paper, a computational analysis, using a cellular automata model, has been developed to analyze post-feeding dispersal behavior of blow y larvae. This model aimed to: simulate the exponential decline of pupal number in relation to the feed source and spatial oscillation due to larval interaction during dispersal; study whether the prior pupal presence in uences distribution patterns of larval frequency; and compare obtained unidirectional dispersal patterns to the cross-dimensional ones. The cellular automata (CA) model was able to successfully reproduce the essential features of the larval dispersal process and, thus, show the importance of local interaction in the studied dispersal process dynamics. Oscillations could be explained by the interaction among dispersing larvae and intrinsic pupation time. The box size and the initial larval density were important factors for the experiment because they in uenced the results. Results showed that the unidirectional dispersal could be used to simulate the larval dispersion that occurs in the natural environment, because both models had a similar result. These results are important to understand how di erent factors can in uence the dynamics of blow y larval dispersal, bringing important results for behavioral ecology and forensic entomology
