Patentes patéticas

The objective of this project is to publish a book of scientific dissemination aimed at the subject of intellectual or industrial property, in particular patent, and its approval process. Based on a series of weekly blog posts published by its author, Patentes Patéticas use scientific, literary journalism and humour techniques to analyze a selection of U.S. patents that stand out for their questionable utility and criticize the number of patents granted as a metric of technological innovation in a country

Sílabas métricas em Terenciano Mauro, De Syllabis, 997-1299

This monograph addresses to the study of Latin metrical notions and concepts as showed in the volume VI of Heinrich Keil’s work, entitled Grammatici Latini (GL): Scriptores Artis Metricae. From that book, it was chosen Terentianus Maurus’s work for corpus, particularly the excerpt between verses 997 and 1299 of De Syllabis, a part of Terentianus’s De Litteris, De Syllabis, De Metris, which is a metric manual written in verses. Until now, there are only three translations of that text into modern languages: two in Italian (one of them was used for comparison with the translation prepared for this monograph) and a French one. That work still contains many reference notes whenever Terentianus Maurus uses ancient authors to demonstrate his explanations on Metrics. Thus this research intends to join in other analysis made on Latin metrical manuals that have already been translated or are still going to be, as well as to notice the importance and the specific value of meter in ancient poetry

Aplicações do fluxo de Ricci à teoria da relatividade geral: estudo dos buracos negros

The flow of Ricci is an analytical tool, and a similar equation for heat geometry, a diffusive process which acts on a variety of metrics Riemannian and thus can be used in mathematics to understand the topology of varieties and also in the study geometric theories. Thus, the Ricci curvature plays an important role in the General Theory of Relativity, characterized as a geometric theory, which is the dominant term in the Einstein field equations. The present work has as main objectives to develop and apply Ricci flow techniques to general relativity, in this case, a three-dimensional asymptotically flat Riemannian metric as a set of initial data for Einstein equations and establish relations and comparisons between them.

Utilização do modelo da barganha de Nash na seleção de carteiras

This paper discussed the model of Nash bargaining (NASH, 1950, 1953), which its arbitration function is invariant for the linear transformations. A more robust model was proposed with respect to the incommensurable effect. The result obtained by the optimization process was not influenced by the units or the amplitude values of these measures. The risk and the return is measured in portfolios of assets and defined a risk metric, return and a method to handle the risk and return. For this, we made a review on the main characteristics of Brazilian industry funds and their evolution over the past years, in addition to treating on the risk in the financial market, the importance of portfolio selection and the Markowitz Model. Are made closing remarks, an analysis of the results, some suggests, concerns and how such concerns can be improved and / or explored in future studies

Do hexâmetro ao decassílabo: equivalência estilística baseada na materialidade da expressão

This paper deals with the relationship between the Latin hexametre and the Portuguese decasyllable, mainly paying attention to the possibility of a translation which could save some stylistic equivalence based on the proportionality of the materiality of expression.

O acento secundário no português arcaico

This paper aimsto study secondary stressinArchaic Portuguese demonstrating its limits of occurrence and its behavior through the Metrical Theory by Hayes (1995). The data was collected by means of a new methodology in the study of the prosody of ancient periods of the language. This methodology is based on the observation of matching and mismatching of musical and linguistic prominences of poetic texts with musical notation.

Proparoxítonas no português arcaico: uma análise por meio da música e do texto das Cantigas de Santa Maria

This paper aims to conduct a study on proparoxytones in Medieval Portuguese through an innovative methodology based on the observation of coincidences and no-coincidences of musical and linguistic prominences of poetic texts with musical notation.. This methodology allowed us to verify the existence of a hundred and thirteen proparoxytones words in a corpus constituted by the first hundred Cantigas de Santa Maria. It was possible to locate the stressed syllable in 92,93% of the found words.
