Estudo de um ciclo de vapor utilizado para tratamento de superificies metálicas: estudo preliminar de caso

The use of heat in parallel with relative low temperatures and applied to several areas of the industry is essential for the main manufacturing processes, like drying, dehydrating, concentration, annealing, production of chemical reactions, and microbiological sterilization. Without neither the heat nor the coming of a great quantity of thermal heat, with high quality, there would not be the “modern society”, with its high standards of living plus its high consumption levels; from services to goods in general. Within an almost absolute way, the heat flows are obtained from vapor systems. Thus, in this work we are going into the operation of a vapor system, composed of two firetube boilers dimensioned to supply vapor for three processes. However, with the transfer of one of the processes to another plant, the system got over-dimensioned. But, taking advantage of this scenario, the two boilers were used to supply vapor to further processes, causing their intermittent usage. Moreover, the operational alternative adopted by the maintenance engineering of the plant for a creating a solution has been presented; both the positive points and negative ones were disclosed, likewise the possibility of improvement points

Gênese de uma obra e esboço de uma poética: a correspondência de João Guimarães Rosa

The quality and the diversity of the material – questionnaires, glossaries, notes, drawings, comments on his work, reflections on language and literature, indications and references – which we find when we read the correspondence of João Guimarães Rosa with the translators of his texts to other languages certify the importance to the study of his work. In this research, we intend to comment on some excerpts of this correspondence, mainly on the unpublished ones, which belong to the Guimarães Rosa Fund (IEB/USP), that we consider relevant to elucidate the process of the origin of this work and to shape Rosa’s poetry or as the author used to call his “platform” of writer.

Lei Maria da Penha: uma nova forma de vida da mulher brasileira?

This article proposes an analysis of the Law no. 11340, August 7th, 2006, known as “Maria da Penha” law. The study is based on the theoretical guidelines of French Semiotics, mainly on the earlier studies conducted by Algirdas Julien Greimas and the recent developments in Jacques Fontanille, Claude Zilberberg and Eric Landowski’s researches, concerning the forms of life. In this regard, we verify whether the aforesaid law constitutes a new way of life of the Brazilian woman.

A construção do ator mulher contemporânea em publicidades de Você S/A

In this article, we aim at analysing, from the perspective of greimasian semiotic theory, how the actor contemporary woman is built in three advertisements published in the magazine VOCÊ S/A in editions of years 2001, 2004 and 2011. Although we have chosen to organize the analysis in that order, the issue of time is not the focus of our work. Our focus in this work will be on the thematic roles of wife, mother, housewife, professional and “woman”, played by the actor who, entering in conjunction with the advertised objects, can be a fulfilled wife/mother and a successful professional or, even, can be “more woman”.

Acontecimento e rotina na figurativização da forma de vida da adolescente descolada, presente na revista Atrevida

D’après Greimas (2002), le sens se concrétise par le changement de rythme ou par une oscillation construite dans la linéarité du langage. L’étrange et l’imprévu, considérés comme des événements qui troublent la pratique habituelle d’une vie dans son parcours, entrent ainsi dans le domaine d’études de la sémiotique française. Le sujet a été discuté plus tard par Claude Zilberberg, avec la venue de la sémiotique tensive, pour qui l’appréhension d’un événement se donne dans le survenir. De plus, selon les observations de Greimas, pour la sémiotique, une forme de vie caractérise des manières par lesquelles les individus ressentent et expriment leur compréhension de l’existence à travers des façons de faire, d’être, d’organiser l’espace dans lequel ils vivent, etc. Devant ces présuppositions théoriques, nous analysons le reportage “Eu pego mas não me apego”, publié dans Atrevida, une revue dirigée vers un public féminin dont la tranche d’âge est de 15 à 19 ans, et nous discutons la manière dont l’énonciateur a configuré le simulacre de l’acteur “ado branchée”. Il en ressort que l’énonciateur a utilisé des stratégies verbales et qu’il met ainsi en discours l’idée d’un comportement qui parait transgresseur au niveau de la manifestation, ce que l’on peut caractériser comme un événement. Cependant, on notera la présence de marques textuelles implicites qui rendent possible un discours qui se réfère au comportement féminin traditionnel et qui caractérise une routine.

Metamorfose: reflexões sobre o pensamento de Ignacio Assis Silva ou tentando achar o fio da meada

This text, homage to Ignacio Assis Silva, looks for the founding theoretical conceptions of his thoughts. When I looked at his texts, from the 70’s to the 90’s, my reading went through the path of an author who is always worried about revealing the birthplace of meaning. To catch this unique moment of semiosis, Silva proposes the concept of metamorphosis, a key-term which allows us to unite the two ends of his formation: Historical Grammar and Semiotic

O cruzeiro: acontecimento e rotina como forma de vida da mulher nos anos 1950

Magazines such as O Cruzeiro are part of the Brazilian collection. In its pages, the female presence is constant. From the concepts of Greimas’ way of life and happening and routine from Zilberberg, we analyse a photoreport which highlights the actress Ilka Soares, comparing her to texts of the session “To the woman”. The analysis of such texts lets us verify the behaviour of a distinguished professional which is different from the traditional model of the housewife of the fifties. Reconstitute the ways of life of these women is to make up for the memory of the country

Paixão, mito e formas de vida em textos publicitários

The passion, understood by Aristotle, as a contingency which causes a change in the essence of the subject, was object of research of the Greek philosopher as rhetorical strategy used by the speaker to touch its listeners. The greimasian semiotics, enlarging the concept of Aristotle’s passion, understands it as the soul states of a subject that can be gathered form the analysis of a text. Reflections towards the passion discursivization and its persuasion effects in advertisements lead us to establish the relationships between passion, myth and ways of life.

Revista o cruzeiro: a figura feminina em publicidades de sabonetes de 1949

This article aims at the application of semiotic theory of French line to soap advertisements publicized in the magazine O Cruzeiro in the year 1949. Our objective is to reconstruct the women’s figure present in these texts and to establish its relation to the persuasion of the reader who is led to acquire not only the products, but mainly the values hidden in the announced objects. From the theory we use the generative course of meaning, focusing on the discourse level and assimilating the consumption axiologies proposed by each advertisement. Finally, we intend to assimilate the standard behavior of that society post-Second World War.

Uma festa de princesa para a Gata Borralheira

We analyze in this paper how the enunciator of two Brazilian magazines (Capricho and Atrevida) builds his enunciatee. Our analysis is based on French Semiotics and on woks by Eric Landowski (2002), whose studies about semiotization of social behavior point out the fact that the society excludes people who are not similar to those who belong to groups considered as a reference. In the textual construction, we noticed that the enunciator uses figures which allow us to visualize euphoric ways of life. However, we intend to verify if the figures show if these magazines are made for enunciatees from different social class or not. This verification is important as there is also a disphoric way of life, i.e., a segregated or excluded way of life.

Mulheres em destaque nos anos 40: o acontecimento como forma de vida na revista O Cruzeiro

From the concepts of way of life by Greimas (1993) and of happening by Zilberberg (2008), we analyze texts taken from O Cruzeiro magazine, which highlights the singer Linda Batista, comparing her to others from the column “Female matters”, by Maria Teresa, love consultant of the women who read the publication. The analysis of such texts lets us verify the behaviour of a woman in distinction that identifies herself with a female profile of a professional who is configured in a style that can be recognized as a modern way of life, different from the model of a traditional way of a housewife in the forties.
