Um tempo para a literatura ou a vida entre o labirinto e a bússola

Since the priors, man has been trying to understand the concept of time. From myth to quantum physics, time is something that inspires reflections on our own lives. Do we exist in time or for time? Literature, a peculiar form of knowledge, deals with the experience of time in many ways. By avoiding categorizations, literature converges time and space in a dimension in which labyrinth and compass converge: at the reading time, in the reader’s space, in the universe of the book, where Cronos, Kairos, and their heir, by excellence, the literary word, constellate. In this way, in this essay, I discuss some aspects of the relationship between literature and time, or still, what literature can teach us about the time.

A formação do Professor de Línguas de uma Perspectiva Sociocultural

With the development of cognition studies and the awareness that teachers’ previous experiences, knowledge acquired in language teacher education programs and classroom experiences in different contexts shape the ways teachers think and construct their teaching practices, teacher education programs start to understand, from a sociocultural perspective, teachers’ learning as a dialogic process of knowledge co-construction, which is situated and emerges from practices and sociocultural contexts. Considering the relevance of this new perception, this article aims at presenting such theoretical perspective as well as its contributions to language teacher education research and teaching.

Adsorção de Cádmio em Solo da Cidade de Neves Paulista

A contaminação do solo é um dos principais problemas ambientais, podendo ocorrer de diversas maneiras, sendo a principal causa fertilização e a calagem do solo, os quais, geralmente possuem em sua composição metais pesados. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a capacidade de adsorção de Cádmio em solo da cidade de Neves Paulista, com base nos modelos matemáticos de Langmuir e Freundlich, correlacionar a adsorção com os fatores pH e força iônica do meio e verificar, por meio da energia livre, a espontaneidade do processo de adsorção. Trata-se de solo arenoso de baixa acidez, pobre em matéria orgânica e com baixo teor de capacidade de troca iônica. Para avaliar a capacidade de adsorção de Cádmio, foram realizados experimentos variando a concentração do metal de 0 a 100 mg L-1 . A adsorção foi avaliada em diferentes valores de pH e de força iônica do meio. Observou-se que o modelo de Langmuir se ajustou melhor à adsorção do metal. A adsorção ocorre de maneira favorável em meio de força iônica baixa, e tende a ser desfavorável em valores mais elevados, demonstrando assim uma correlação negativa. Em relação ao pH a correlação foi positiva à adsorção. Os valores da energia livre foram negativos, o que demonstra a espontaneidade dos processos de adsorção.

Análise de fadiga em rodas automotivas utilizando método dos elementos finitos

The increasing search for better performance at the automotive industry, especially on the matter of fuel consumption, caused a progressive evolution of industrial technology. For the wheel this study is based on the try of reducing mass and decreasing the moment of inertia, characteristics that directly reflect on the performance parameter, as consumption and acceleration, so that it also is effective on the growth of the profit margin, since it reduces the costs of the locomotion. In this paper will be applied the Finite Element Analysis to explain the wheel behavior and identify ways to improve the performance. To the analyze it will be simulated a test condition established by ABNT NBR 6751:2009 foreseeing a possible collapse through general yielding and fatigue. The load here presented results from the equation presented on the norms and in the datas provided by the manufacturer

Analise das emissões de CO2 e de energia - simulação com novas tecnologias siderúrgicas

The process of steel production emits a large quantity of greenhouse gases, specifically carbon dioxide (CO2), and the reduction of such emissions is one of the main challenges for the industry in the 21st. Century. To quantify these emissions, the Worldsteel Association (association of the 170 large steel manufacturers of the world) published a methodology (CO2 Emission Data Collection) for calculation and comparison of CO2 emissions among its members. After that, in 2010, this methodology became an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) norm. Today, the calculation of the CO2 emissions in steel making companies follow the ISO 14404-1 for units with blast furnaces and the ISO 14404-2 for units with electric furnaces. In the last years, new technologies were and continue to be developed for the steel making sector aiming at energetic improvements and greenhouse gas reductions (mainly CO2) by the several processes involved in the production of steel. This work had the objective of producing a tool to calculate the CO2 emissions for the steel making sector. An Excel spreadsheet was developed to calculate the emission intensities of CO2 of a steel plant, the Usina Presidente Vargas, of the Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (CSN). The spreadsheet furnishes results of CO2 emissions and energetic fluxes, and simulates the benefits that some of the new technologies can give to the company. The spreadsheet calculates the emissions in two ways: a) based on the carbon fluxes that enter the unit, and b) based on the emissions of each specific process within the unit (coking, sinterization, blast furnace, among others)

Atividades investigativas: o impacto na capacidade de argumentação em alunos do ensino médio sobre eletroquímica

The education research guidelines have shown the important contribution of the investigations that focus on analysis of the discursive dimension of teaching and learning of Science in actual classroom. An interesting proposal to analyze the effectiveness of an educational activity is to assess the potential of investigative activities in the development of argumentation in science classes. Several studies have taken into account the use of argument in the classroom as a way to provide students with new ways to know the science. Argument refers to the process of associating components that play a central role in the construction of explanations, models and theories. In order to investigate the potential of these activities took place the application of investigative activities with third-year high school students, recorded in audio and video, focusing on the development of the argument. The search, conducted ranks as a qualitative research with characteristics of a case study. The arguments collected during the activities contained the students' conceptions about the concepts discussed and all were recorded in audio and video. With the encouragement of the argument by the investigative activity we evaluate the learning experienced by the speech of students. It may be noted that students have appropriated the concept of oxidation involving electron transfer, thus the activity reached the goal, so that was planned, making it effective for the introduction of electrochemical concepts

Estudo de efeito do cozimento nos compostos bioativos presentes no espinafre e na chicória

A necessidade de fazer com que haja um aumento no consumo de hortaliças se faz crescente no mundo inteiro, isso porque esta é uma fonte rica em micronutrientes e macronutrientes, além de não agregar muito valor calórico na dieta e ser um alimento acessível para todas as classes econômicas. Entretanto, no Brasil, é verificado que a porcentagem da população que consome diariamente o recomendado de hortaliças e frutas ainda não atingiu o ideal para que se possa obter os benefícios trazidos do consumo, como a prevenção de algumas doenças não transmissíveis, através da dieta. Por isso, a necessidade de se estudar maneiras diferentes de cozimento das hortaliças, para que se torne possível preparar os vegetais de maneiras diferentes e torná-los mais atrativos, garantindo a melhor forma de fazê-los, para que se escolha o tratamento que melhor conserva o conteúdo de compostos bioativos. Para esse estudo foram considerados dois vegetais de grande importância, o espinafre (SpinaciaoleraceaL.) e a chicória (ChicoriumintybusL.), que foram submetidos a quatro tratamentos de cozimentos dististintos, a 100°C, no vapor, no microondas e no óleo, para cada tratamento foi avaliado parâmetros de cor, análise de sólidos solúveis totais, acidez titulável, determinação de ácido ascórbico, determinação de fenólicos e flavonoides totais, avaliação da atividade sequestrante de radicais livres (DPPH e ABTS) e carotenoides. Os resultados obtidos foram bastante diversificados, ou seja, para cada teste desenvolvido houve uma retenção maior do composto bioativo estudado em determinado cozimento preparado, entretanto o tratamento realizado a 100°C foi o tratamento que obteve menor retenção dos compostos bioativos entre os testes realizados.

Gerenciamento na construção civil - planejamento e controle: estudo de caso no planejamento físico de um empreendimento imobiliário

Given the high competitiveness in the construction industry, businesses became necessary in a management which reduce costs and delivery times, and is fundamental to running a compatible planning with the magnitude of each work order is the same make feasible the executor. When it comes to planning, one is including both the physical planning of the work, time and duration of the events, as well as the preparation of the cost thereof. There are numerous ways to run the management of works, then it is necessary, in most cases, the planning experience, in previous works, the engineer in charge, because with it he should know what strategy to take the work skirt as planned and designed. For a complete and efficient management, an initial study hard to prepare the physical and financial planning it is necessary, in order to make it real and consistent throughout the execution of the work. It is necessary also a hard monitoring of both the physical and the financial schedule in order to what was initially planned to be completed as close as possible. This paper shows a case study which uses some ways to the management be held with the course of planning, medium and short term, as well as the preparation of the initial budget of the work. Will also be presented as is performed physical planning of a real estate work

Revisão dos principais radiofármacos utilizados no Brasil e suas aplicações na detecção e terapia de patologias

Radiopharmaceuticals are substances marked with radionuclides that can be used for detection and treatment of cancer, infections and inflammatory diseases. They emit several types of radiation through different decay routes, each radioisotope with its specific properties and uses. They can usually be produced from several different materials, by bombardment with particle beams in a nuclear research reactor or cyclotron, depending on their characteristics. Brazil has four public institutions which produce - or import - and distribute radiopharmaceuticals to hospitals and clinics throughout its territory. The largest such institution, Ipen, distributes 97% of radiopharmaceuticals used in the country. Some radiopharmaceuticals decay very quickly, meaning they must be produced and quickly administered to the patient in the same location, presenting a logistical challenge. Nuclear medicine in Brazil is a promising field and has been steadily growing, although rigid laws and a lack of qualified work force hinder Research and Development efforts for new radiopharmaceuticals. The construction of a new nuclear research reactor, in 2016, should generate self-sufficiency and economy in radiopharmaceutical production and avoid a future crisis in the supply of technetium-99m, the most important radioisotope, used in over 80% of procedures with radiopharmaceuticals.
