Determinação de recomendações bioclimáticas para habitação de interesse social de quatro climas do Rio Grande do Norte

Recomendações projetuais baseadas no clima são fontes importantes de diretrizes para os arquitetos. Uma das formas de obtenção dessas recomendações é por meio de normas, como a NBR 15220 (ABNT, 2005), que agrupa as cidades em zonas homogêneas quanto as estratégias sugeridas. O zoneamento bioclimático brasileiro divide o território do Rio Grande do Norte em duas zonas, a ZB 7 e ZB 8, que possuem algumas recomendações distintas, como aberturas grandes e vedações leves para a região litorânea contra aberturas pequenas e vedações pesadas para a região semiárida. Entretanto, outras configurações climáticas estão presentes no RN e não possuem clara recomendação. Este é o caso das regiões serranas e das regiões intermediárias entre o litoral e a região semiárida. Em virtude disso, este estudo visa encontrar recomendações bioclimáticas para habitações de interesse social nessas quatro condições climáticas. Para tanto, utilizou-se ferramenta computacional para realização de simulações das condições térmicas de três tipos de habitações populares - alongada, ramificada e compacta - e das seguintes estratégias: presença ou ausência de ventilação natural e sombreamento, massa térmica leve ou pesada, e Fator de Calor Solar alto ou baixo. Essas simulações foram realizadas para quatro condições climáticas do estado. Foram analisados os desempenhos de cada caso para identificar as estratégias e tipos de habitação recomendados para cada clima. De maneira geral, nos climas deNatal, Mossoró e Caicó viu-se que habitações com FCS baixo e com presença de ventilação natural possuem os melhores desempenhos. No clima de Areia, a ausência de ventilação aliada ao baixo FCS é que produziu os melhores desempenhos. O sombreamento melhora o desempenho nas cidades de clima quente, mas aumenta as horas com desconforto ao frio em Areia. A massa térmica varia de acordo com as demais estratégias, tendo casos em que habitações com massa térmica alta possuem melhores desempenhos que outros casos com massa térmica baixa. Por fim, viu-se que as estratégias para Natal, Caicó e Mossoró são bem semelhantes, com a recomendação de ventilação natural, FCS baixo nas vedações e sombreamento. Para Areia, a recomendação é não ventilar, ter FCS baixo e massa térmica alta.

Comunicação pública e acesso à informação: o interesse público presente nas produções da assessoria de imprensa da prefeitura de Santarém (PA)

Public communication is based on the public interest and the effective democratization of communication in publics agencies. Access to information is the base for this is materializes solidly, helping even in formation as an individual. The work of the press office is the instrument for the Public Communication and access to information is guaranteed to society , since one of the goals of the press officer is to be committed to media , providing it material quality and depth , benefiting so the citizen. The research the look exactly on reflections on the topics listed above. The purpose of this study was to analyze the news published in Fanpage and Santarem Town Hall site, in western Para, meet the demands of Public Communication and the precepts of the Access to Information Law (AIL), starting the questioning until point to Santarem Town Hall works to public communication. For this analysis, we developed a work using the techniques of bibliographic and descriptive research. Such referrals have served as a starting point for fieldwork and for exhibition on the concepts of Public Communication of Access to Information Law, Organizational Communication and Press office. The research was considered, also, because document was to identify and verify the documents with a specific purpose. This research was lifting a quantitative survey to support the qualitative analysis of the object. So considering its features is that it was monitor the Fanpage and the Town Hall site, through a specific tool and then the analysis of posts, searching to observe public communication accomplished in the Town Hall of Santarem, on the Internet, especially social media and corporate website. The methodology helped obtain indicators that allowed add knowledge about the production of the Town Hall press office, and identify if the press office productions meet AIL and Public Communication. Finally, it was suggested in this study the elaboration a strategic script of communication because it scales the actions and policies of the Santarem city, allowing citizen participation. For this, too, it suggested the training of Santarem municipal government communication team as a strategy. This training consists of speeches and wheels conversations with all the press officer of the town hall, including the secretariats.

ToPI - uma abordagem online para identificar locais de interesse utilizando fotografias geo-referenciadas

Due to the growing use of social networks people no longer just consume data, they also produce and share it. Geo-tagged information, i.e., data with geographical location, have been used in many attempts to identify popular places and help tourists that will visit unfamiliar cities. This Master Thesis presents an online strategy that uses geo-tagged photos and their metadata in order to identify places of interest inside a given geographical area and retrieve relevant related information. The whole process runs automatically in real time, returning updated information about places. The proposed strategy takes into account the inherent dynamism of social media, and thus is robust under inconsistencies and/or outdated information, a common issue in solutions that rely on previously stored data. The analysis of the results showed that our approach is very promising, returning places that present high agreement with those from a popular travel website.

Avaliação do AAM - Active Appearance Model para detecção de regiões de interesse em radiografias carpais na estimativa da idade óssea através do método TW

In several areas of health professionals (pediatricians, nutritionists, orthopedists, endocrinologists, dentists, etc.) are used in the assessment of bone age to diagnose growth disorders in children. Through interviews with specialists in diagnostic imaging and research done in the literature, we identified the TW method - Tanner and Whitehouse as the most efficient. Even achieving better results than other methods, it is still not the most used, due to the complexity of their use. This work presents the possibility of automation of this method and therefore that its use more widespread. Also in this work, they are met two important steps in the evaluation of bone age, identification and classification of regions of interest. Even in the radiography in which the positioning of the hands were not suitable for TW method, the identification algorithm of the fingers showed good results. As the use AAM - Active Appearance Models showed good results in the identification of regions of interest even in radiographs with high contrast and brightness variation. It has been shown through appearance, good results in the classification of the epiphysis in their stages of development, being chosen the average epiphysis finger III (middle) to show the performance. The final results show an average percentage of 90% hit and misclassified, it was found that the error went away just one stage of the correct stage.

Wie lässt sich das Interesse am Erlernen von Deutsch als Fremdsprache (wieder) steigern? : Warum lernt man als schwedischer Schüler neben der eigenen Muttersprache gerade Deutsch als zweite Fremdsprache? Was sind Anreize dafür?

By the means of a questionnaire the present work examines the attitudes among pupils between the 5th and 9th grade towards choosing French, Spanish or German as their third language. The main question to be answered is "What needs to be improved to raise the interest in choosing specifically German as their preferred third language?". The other questions posed are for example "Do they want to study a language at all?", "Which language do they want to study and why?" or "What motivates them to keep studying generally?". The results show a high motivation and that the most pupils have already decided for a specific language at the middle of the 5th grade. Family and friends play a crucial role in choosing their language in combination with other factors such as the experiences of visiting countries or settings where the target language is used. To raise the popularity of German as the chosen language is not a short time project. More variation in teaching and real contact with German people, for instance language trips, needs to be done or improved. Nearly all of the pupils want to use modern techniques like chat or video conversations instead of just reading a text book.

Direitos e Interesse Superior da Criança

A presente dissertação de mestrado tem como objectivo analisar como o princípio do interesse superior, no actual Sistema de Protecção de Crianças e Jovens em Perigo, contribui para a promoção dos seus direitos. Para tal, procurou-se analisar a aplicação da medida legal de regime de colocação em instituição e a sua ligação com os princípios orientadores da intervenção, bem como compreender como esses princípios são operacionalizados nos processos de promoção dos direitos e protecção das crianças e jovens em perigo. O estudo foi desenvolvido com base em informação recolhida em cinco casos, em que foram aplicadas medidas de Acolhimento em instituição e arquivados na Comissão de Protecção de Crianças e Jovens (CPCJ) de Coimbra, a partir de informação fornecida pelos técnicos, primeiro através do preenchimento de uma grelha de registo dos tópicos essenciais de cada um dos casos, depois através de entrevistas realizadas com esses mesmos técnicos. O modelo de entrevista utilizado foi de natureza semi-estruturada de forma a permitir aos entrevistados darem respostas livres e expontâneas. Estas técnicas de recolha de dados permitiram perceber como os técnicos da CPCJ actuaram nos processos em causa e detalhar o desenvolvimento cronológico desses processos de promoção dos direitos e protecção das crianças e jovens em perigo. A análise da informação permitiu concluir, pela debilidade da utilização de alguns dos princípios orientadores da intervenção, que o princípio do interesse superior não está a ser utilizado de forma a garantir o bem-estar e o desenvolvimento integral das crianças e dos jovens. Este facto transparece na manutenção das situações de perigo durante o desenrolar dos processos, na dificuldade em encontrar em tempo útil medidas protectivas adequadas às situações e na falta de elementos essenciais para a estruturação desses mesmos processos.

Gestão híbrida em cooperativa de crédito: uma análise a partir do interesse, participação, satisfação e expectativa dos cooperados da COOPERUFPA

The globalization of markets has confirmed for the processes of change in organizations both in structure and in management. This dynamic was also observed in credit unions because they are financial institutions and are under the rules of the Brazil´s Financial System. Given the context of organizational changes in the financial capital has played the traditional management reform is urgent. In organizations credit unions, given its dual purpose, because in the same organizational environment and capitalism coexist cooperative whose logics are antagonistic, but can live through the balance between instrumental rationality and substantive rationality in credit unions. Based on this concept a new form of management should be thought to be able to accommodate the demand of cooperative, community, government and the market. Hybridization has been observed in management practices` COOPERUFPA into dimensions financial, social and solidarity participation with a trend in paradigmatic form of hybrid management, in that it directly or indirectly affect the management decisions in the credit union. The hybrid management is a trend that has been setting the basis for societal transformation, so that credit unions promote actions of welfare oriented cooperative members and the community around the same time that attend the dynamics of market globalization. These actions, in the context of hybrid management should be implemented by COOPERUFPA from the sociability of the remains and the wide diffusion of solidarity culture between cooperative partnership as a way to recover their participation in trade relations, financial and the social collective developement. For the members of COOPERUFPA financial interest is evidenced in greater relevance for the social interest given its dominant relationship as "mere customer" of the credit union, however, the proactive participation of the life of the cooperative credit union is one of its expectative among of participation of to share power in decisions by general meetings. This passivity`s cooperator of the COOPERUFPA in defending the ideals overshadowed the spread of cooperative principles and values of cooperation among them. Thus his conception for COOPERUFPA in the financial dimension, social and solidarity democracy, performed transversely. The COOPERUFPA for not developing an education policy for the cooperation among its members, contributed to a process of collective alienation of cooperative ideals, since the cooperative do not understand the reality that surrounds them as members of an organization whose mission is to social and financial sustainability of its members

Utilização de um aplicativo de simulação computacional na avaliação de desempenho térmico de protótipo de habitação de interesse social (his)

This Masters Degree dissertation seeks to make a comparative study of internal air temperature data, simulated through the thermal computer application DesignBuilder 1.2, and data registered in loco through HOBO® Temp Data Logger, in a Social Housing Prototype (HIS), located at the Central Campus of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte UFRN. The prototype was designed and built seeking strategies of thermal comfort recommended for the local climate where the study was carried out, and built with panels of cellular concrete by Construtora DoisA, a collaborator of research project REPESC Rede de Pesquisa em Eficiência Energética de Sistemas Construtivos (Research Network on Energy Efficiency of Construction Systems), an integral part of Habitare program. The methodology employed carefully examined the problem, reviewed the bibliography, analyzing the major aspects related to computer simulations for thermal performance of buildings, such as climate characterization of the region under study and users thermal comfort demands. The DesignBuilder 1.2 computer application was used as a simulation tool, and theoretical alterations were carried out in the prototype, then they were compared with the parameters of thermal comfort adopted, based on the area s current technical literature. Analyses of the comparative studies were performed through graphical outputs for a better understanding of air temperature amplitudes and thermal comfort conditions. The data used for the characterization of external air temperature were obtained from the Test Reference Year (TRY), defined for the study area (Natal-RN). Thus the author also performed comparative studies for TRY data registered in the years 2006, 2007 and 2008, at weather station Davis Precision Station, located at the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais INPE-CRN (National Institute of Space Research), in a neighboring area of UFRN s Central Campus. The conclusions observed from the comparative studies performed among computer simulations, and the local records obtained from the studied prototype, point out that the simulations performed in naturally ventilated buildings is quite a complex task, due to the applications limitations, mainly owed to the complexity of air flow phenomena, the influence of comfort conditions in the surrounding areas and climate records. Lastly, regarding the use of the application DesignBuilder 1.2 in the present study, one may conclude that it is a good tool for computer simulations. However, it needs some adjustments to improve reliability in its use. There is a need for continued research, considering the dedication of users to the prototype, as well as the thermal charges of the equipment, in order to check sensitivity

Por uma moradia termicamente confortável: proposta de habitação de interesse social com ênfase no conforto térmico

This research covers the topic of social housing and its relation to thermal comfort, so applied to an architectural and urban intervention in land situated in central urban area of Macaíba/RN, Brazil. Reflecting on the role of design and use of alternative building materials in the search for better performance is one of its main goals. The hypothesis is that by changing design parameters and choice of materials, it is possible to achieve better thermal performance results. Thus, we performed computer simulations of thermal performance and natural ventilation using computational fluid dynamics or CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). The presentation of the thermal simulation followed the methodology proposed in the dissertation Negreiros (2010), which aims to find the percentage of the amount of hours of comfort obtained throughout the year, while data analysis was made of natural ventilation from images generated by the images extracted from the CFD. From model building designed, was fitted an analytical framework that results in a comparison between three different proposals for dwellings housing model, which is evaluated the question of the thermal performance of buildings, and also deals with the spatial variables design, construction materials and costs. It is concluded that the final report confirmed the general hypotheses set at the start of the study, it was possible to quantify the results and identify the importance of design and construction materials are equivalent, and that, if combined, lead to gains in thermal performance potential.

Do acesso clássico à comercialização: especificidades do mercado imobiliário informal na área especial de interesse social de Mãe Luiza, Natal/ RN.

This study presents research regarding affordable housing and their effects on the spatial reconfiguration of Natal/ RN, aiming to identify the specificities of the informality of urban land. This study aims to understand how informal housing market operates housing provision for the population located in popular informal settlements, through buying and selling market and rental market of residential properties irregular / illegal. This understanding will be through the neighborhood of Mãe Luisa, Special Area of Social Interest (SASI), located between neighborhoods with a population of high purchasing power and inserted into the tourist shaft of seaside of town. The characterization of informal housing market in Mãe Luiza, from buyers, sellers and renters, will help to understand how these informal transactions operate on SASI and housing provision for public policy development and implementation of housing programs and land regularization for low-income population, adequate to dynamic and reality of housing of informal areas

Reutilização de imóveis de interesse patrimonial, voltados para a ahabitação: um estudo de caso na Ribeira-Natal/RN

This work analyzes the reutilization of real estate of patrimonial interest, come back toward habitation. One understands as real estate of patrimonial interest the old ones that present relevant architectural typologies that must be preserved; some buildings that represent characteristic architectural styles of a determined period; some valued real estates for the history of the city (historical, memory and image signification that has of certain places) and buildings with exceptional artistic elements. In short, real estate of patrimonial interest. The place or site to be studied will be the neighborhood of the Ribeira, because is an area that protects a bigger interest for the historic patrimony of the city. The habitation use was thought as a booster element of revitalization processes of degradable historic site, contributing to the preservation of artistic, architectural and historic patrimony, and thus to stimulate the accomplishment of the re-qualification of the neighborhood of the Ribeira. It is intended with the present study to examine alternatives to make possible habitation re (uses) in the historical quarter of the Ribeira in old constructions of patrimonial value

A identidade feminina conflitante em O Primo Basílio, de Eça de Queirós

Tendo em vista a conduta da mulher oitocentista, em Portugal, dentro de um impasse entre desejos e punições, este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a identidade conflitante das personagens femininas em Eça de Queirós à luz de teorias feministas, tendo como objeto de estudo a obra O Primo Basílio (1878). Posteriormente, a partir da prosa queirosiana, traça-se um paralelo com a ideologia do “ser mulher” no mundo pós-moderno. Esta pesquisa utiliza-se como referencial teórico Bauman (2005), Beauvoir (1980), Butler (2003), Hall (2006), Moisés (2008), Reis (2007) e Saraiva & Lopes (2005). Conclui-se que diante da contradição que subjaz a figuração do feminino, urge a desconstrução das identidades fixas a fim de que se desmitifique a ideia conservadora de identidade.

Monitoraggio delle risorse ittiche e della pesca: indagine sugli spostamenti di specie marine di interesse commerciale e conservazionistico

Il monitoraggio degli spostamenti degli organismi marini è un importante strumento per la comprensione della biologia delle specie ma anche per la conservazione e la tutela degli stock intesi come risorsa. Nel caso dell'applicazione su specie che vivono all'interno di Aree Marine Protette, queste tecniche consentono di verificare l'efficacia della protezione. Questo studio riporta l'applicazione di tecniche di telemetria ultrasonica all'aragosta comune (P. elephas) nell'AMP di Isola delle Femmine. Gli individui catturati all'interno dell'AMP ed ivi rilasciati hanno mostrato uno spiccato homing ed un buon livello di fedeltà al sito. Lo studio inoltre è servito a denunciare lo stato attuale di scarsa protezione e suggerisce una riperimetrazione dei confini dell'AMP.
