Metodologia de controle preventivo baseado em árvore de decisão para a melhoria da segurança estática e dinâmica de sistemas elétricos de potência

A presente dissertação visa apresentar um conjunto de desenvolvimentos, aplicativos e serviços para suporte à operação em tempo real e ao controle preventivo visando garantir à segurança estática e dinâmica de sistemas elétricos de potência. A técnica de mineração de dados conhecida como árvore de decisão foi utilizada tanto para classificar o estado operacional do sistema, bem como para fornecer diretrizes à tomada de ações de controle, necessárias para evitar a degradação da tensão operativa e a instabilidade transitória. Testes preliminares foram realizados utilizando o histórico operacional do SCADA/SAGE do Centro de Operação Regional do Pará da Eletrobrás Eletronorte. Os resultados obtidos validaram completamente o conjunto (protótipo) de aplicativos e serviços, e indicam um grande potencial para a aplicação no ambiente de operação em tempo real.

Segurança alimentar e nutricional dos agricultores familiares da associação dos produtores e produtoras orgânicas de Ceará Mirim/RN

The proposition of this research is supported by the definition of Food Safety and Nutrition (FSN), established by the II FSN National Conference. Taking this concept as reference, the research instrument aimed to analyze strategies and actions related to FSN, developed by members of Ceará Mirim Organic Producers Association, located in Rio Grande do Norte state (Brazil), from aspects related to family feeding, as well as means of access, quantity and food culture. It was aimed to answer the following questions: Do the families benefited from Ceará Mirim Organic Producers Association have strategies that assure their FSN? If so, do these strategies originate from public policies or own actions? Do these strategies focus on family revenue? In expenses with food and proper feeding? How do these strategies articulate together and which social networks do they form? In this research, there were also approached questionings which comprise market opening through the declaration of the products as Organization of Social Control (OSC), aggregate value and participation in agroecological fairs, aiming to identify and characterize if these strategies contribute for Food Safety and Nutrition of these families. The data here analyzed were obtained from semi-structured interviews, conducted in the production sites of each farmer, and have a qualitative approach. 21 questionnaires were applied to the family farmers, in seven projects of agrarian reform settlements (Carlos Marighella, Nova Esperança II, Aliança, Marcoalhado I, Santa Águeda, Santa Luzia and União). From this study, it was concluded that most of FSN strategies result from a series of distinct public policies, which potentiate the existing strategies and create new ones, such as in the case of organic production, which is the main motivation, even for the organization of the studied group. These strategies brought improvements in feeding and caused changes in eating habits, especially in the diversification of production for own consumption. This, on the other hand, is assuring greater food autonomy and increasing marketing channels, through fairs or institutional markets. It was also verified that reciprocity relations increased after the organic production, and they are indispensable to assure food in difficult times, also contributing to incentive organic production itself, through supplies exchange.

O papel dos quintais urbanos na segurança alimentar, bem estar e conservação da biodiversidade

Residential homegardens have environmental and social roles in the urban environment. These green spaces can potentially minimize the impacts caused by the growth of cities, being an alternative to connect fragmented areas or offer refuge to wildlife and therefore support the conservation of biodiversity. In addition, the homegardens demonstrate a leading role in increasing human well-being by promoting socialization opportunities, contact with nature, local culture as well as improvements in food security for the urban families. Nevertheless, it is still unclear what specific characteristics of homegardens can act effectively in the conservation of the biodiversity, as well as in the construction of food security and well being of the homegardeners and their families. The first chapter of this thesis analyzed the diversity of plant species (native and exotic) and assessed the contribution of different types of urban gardens (ornamental and forest gardens alike) in the presence of wildlife such as birds, monkeys and lizards. In the second chapter we evaluated the contribution of those gardens to the welfare and food security of their owners. In order to do this, 41 gardens were visited in Pium, a southern coastal town in the northeastern Brazil, which also happens to be in a periurban region undergoing rapid urban expansion and pressure from the real estate market. We surveyed the planned biodiversity and fauna associated with homegardens. The data related to food security and welfare were sampled through interviews with the person in charge of taking care of the gardens. These interviews covered issues on the supply of food from the garden and absence of chemical products, as well as aspects of the GNH indicator (Gross National Happiness). The results showed that these homegardens generally contribute little to the maintenance of native plant species (native species = 29/ total = 187). From its main features, the gardens were classified as ornamental, forest gardens and forest farms. These groups had a different effect on the presence of the animals studied and the last two contained most of the sampled native species. The diversity of plants and trees was a good predictor of the presence of birds and monkeys. Thus, the contribution of yards for the conservation of biodiversity depends on the type of garden: some even can have negative effects on conservation. These results can direct new approaches to detailed understanding of gardens and also of public policies applied to urban planning. The results of the second chapter showed that the two types of forest gardens contributed to household food security, for providing food and medicinal herbs, which mostly did not have pesticides and chemical 12 fertilizers. But the three groups of gardens are important components for the well being of their stakeholders. Gardens help promote the transmission of knowledge on agriculture, socialization, contact with nature and bring up feelings related to peace and harmony. Thus, forest gardens can be considered important means to get through public projects and policies designed to encourage biodiversity and promote food security and well-being in urban areas

Insegurança alimentar em domicílios brasileiros com crianças menores de cinco anos

This article analyzes food insecurity and hunger in Brazilian families with children under five years of age. This was a nationally representative cross-sectional study using data from the National Demographic and Health Survey on Women and Children (PNDS-2006), in which the outcome variable was moderate to severe food insecurity, measured by the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (EBIA). Prevalence estimates and prevalence ratios were generated with 95% confidence intervals. The results showed a high prevalence of moderate to severe food insecurity, concentrated in the North and Northeast regions (30.7%), in economic classes D and E (34%), and in beneficiaries of conditional cash transfer programs (36.5%). Multivariate analysis showed that the socioeconomic relative risks (beneficiaries of conditional cash transfers), regional relative risks (North and Northeast regions), and economic relative risks (classes D and E) were 1.8, 2.0 and 2.4, respectively. Aggregation of the three risks showed 48% of families with moderate to severe food insecurity, meaning that adults and children were going hungry during the three months preceding the survey.

Estimativas de insegurança alimentar grave nos municípios brasileiros

Estimou-se a prevalência de insegurança alimentar grave para os municípios brasileiros, com base na Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) 2004. Inicialmente, foi gerado e testado um modelo por regressão logística multivariada com base nesse banco de dados. O modelo foi aplicado à amostra do Censo Demográfico de 2000, gerando estimativas de prevalências de insegurança alimentar grave para os municípios brasileiros, que foram analisadas de acordo com o percentual de famílias em condição de insegurança alimentar grave. Essa insegurança alimentar está mais concentrada nas regiões Norte e Nordeste, onde 46,1 por cento e 65,3 por cento dos municípios, respectivamente, apresentam altas prevalências de insegurança alimentar grave. Predominam nas regiões Sudeste e Sul municípios com baixa exposição à insegurança alimentar grave. No Centro-oeste a maior parte dos municípios mostra estimativas de insegurança alimentar grave classificadas como médias. Verificou-se grande variação intra-regional na ocorrência da insegurança alimentar, sendo a Região Sul a mais uniforme. Conclui-se que o Brasil apresenta grandes variações inter e intra-regionais na ocorrência da insegurança alimentar, sendo importante realçá-las e analisá-las, no intuito de subsidiar políticas públicas
