Relatório da prática de ensino supervisionada realizado no Agrupamento de Escolas nº 4 de Évora - EB 2,3 Conde de Vilalva e Escola Secundária André de Gouveia, em ensino de educação física nos ensinos básico e secundário

O presente relatório surge como um complemento à minha Prática de Ensino Supervisionada, realizada no ano lectivo de 2009/201O, visando essencialmente a reflexão e documentação do trabalho por mim desenvolvido ao longo deste ano. A minha Prática de Ensino Supervisionada debruçou-se sobre a disciplina de Educação Física, e decorreu na Escola EB 2,3 Conde de Vilalva, onde leccionei a disciplina a uma turma de 8° ano, e na Escola Secundária André de Gouveia, tendo leccionado a disciplina a um 12° ano. Durante este mesmo ano lectivo, leccionei ainda entre 8 intervenções a uma turma do 1° Ciclo de Ensino Básico, 1° ano; e 9 intervenções a uma turma do 2° Ciclo de Ensino Básico, o 5° ano. ABSTRACT: This document comes as a complement to my Supervised Teaching Practice, held in the 2009/201O academic year, aiming primarily to reflection and documentation of the work developed throughout this year. My Supervised Teaching Practice was focused on the discipline of Physical Education, and held at EB 2,3 Conde de Vilalva where I taught a class in 8th grade, and in high school André de Gouveia, where I taught the discipline to a class in 12th grade. During that same academic year, I taught between 8 and 1O interventions with a class of 1st cycle of education, 1st grade, and with a class of 2nd cycle of education, a 5th grade.

Synthesis and characterization of heteroleptic Cu(I) complexes based on quinolin-yl-1,2,3-triazole and pyridin-yl-1,2,3 triazole

The present work is part of a research project that involves the study of new copper based complexes to be employed as photosensitizer in carbon dioxide photoreduction reaction. My research project is focused on the synthesis and characterization of 1,2,3 triazoles with a quinoline or pyridine in the lateral chain, which have been successively utilized to synthesize heteroleptic Cu(I) complexes. Redox potential and photophysic properties have been studied.

Jeans modeling of massive early-type galaxies with observed stellar kinematic profiles up to 2-3 effective radii

A recent integral-field spectroscopic (IFS) survey, the MASSIVE survey (Ma et al. 2014), observed the 116 most massive (MK < −25.3 mag, stellar mass M∗ > 10^11.6 M⊙) early-type galaxies (ETGs) within 108 Mpc, out to radii as large as 40 kpc, that correspond to ∼ 2 − 3 effective radii (Re). One of the major findings of the MASSIVE survey is that the galaxy sample is split nearly equally among three groups showing three different velocity dispersion profiles σ(R) outer of a radius ∼ 5 kpc (falling, flat and rising with radius). The purpose of this thesis is to model the kinematic profiles of six ETGs included in the MASSIVE survey and representative of the three observed σ(R) shapes, with the aim of investigating their dynamical structure. Models for the chosen galaxies are built using the numerical code JASMINE (Posacki, Pellegrini, and Ciotti 2013). The code produces models of axisymmetric galaxies, based on the solution of the Jeans equations for a multicomponent gravitational potential (supermassive black hole, stars and dark matter halo). With the aim of having a good agreement between the kinematics obtained from the Jeans equations, and the observed σ and rotation velocity V of MASSIVE (Veale et al. 2016, 2018), I derived constraints on the dark matter distribution and orbital anisotropy. This work suggests a trend of the dark matter amount and distribution with the shape of the velocity dispersion profiles in the outer regions: the models of galaxies with flat or rising velocity dispersion profiles show higher dark matter fractions fDM both within 1 Re and 5 Re. Orbital anisotropy alone cannot account for the different observed trends of σ(R) and has a minor effect compared to variations of the mass profile. Galaxies with similar stellar mass M∗ that show different velocity dispersion profiles (from falling to rising) are successfully modelled with a variation of the halo mass Mh.

Mechanical properties and cytotoxicity of 3Y-TZP bioceramics reinforced with Al(2)O(3) particles

The influence of Al(2)O(3) addition and sintering parameters on the mechanical properties and cytotoxicity of tetragonal ZrO(2)-3 mol% Y(2)O(3) ceramics was evaluated. Samples containing 0, 10, 20 and 30 wt.% of Al(2)O(3) particles were prepared by cold uniaxial pressing (80 MPa) and sintered in air at 1500, 1550 and 1600 degrees C for 120 min. The effects of the sintering conditions on the microstructure were analyzed by X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. Hardness and fracture toughness were determined by the Vickers indentation method and the mechanical resistance by four-point bending tests. As a preliminary biological evaluation, ""in vitro"" cytotoxicity tests were realized to determine the cytotoxic level of the ZrO(2)-Al(2)O(3) composites, using the neutral red uptake method with NCTC clones L929 from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) bank. Fully dense ceramic materials were obtained with a hardness ranging between 1340 HV and 1585 HV, depending on the amount of Al(2)O(3) in the ZrO(2) matrix. On the other hand, no significant influence of the Al(2)O(3) addition on fracture toughness was observed, exhibiting values near 8 MPa m(1/2) for all compositions and sintering conditions studied. The non-cytotoxic behavior, the elevated fracture toughness, the good bending strength (sigma(f) = 690 MPa) and the elevated Weibull`s modulus (m = 11) exhibited by the material, show that these ceramic composites are highly suitable biomaterials for dental implant applications.

Gas-phase reactions of NO3 and N2O5 with (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol ('leaf alcohol'), (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol

The night-time atmospheric chemistry of the biogenic volatile organic compounds (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol ('leaf alcohol'), (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol, has been studied at room temperature. Rate coefficients for reactions of the nitrate radical (NO3) with these stress-induced plant emissions were measured using the discharge-flow technique. We employed off-axis continuous-wave cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (CEAS) for the detection of NO3, which enabled us to work in excess of the hexenol compounds over NO3. The rate coefficients determined were (2.93 +/- 0.58) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (2.67 +/- 0.42) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (4.43 +/- 0.91) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (1.56 +/- 0.24) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), and (1.30 +/- 0.24) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3en-1-ol, (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol. The rate coefficient for the reaction of NO3 with (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol agrees with the single published determination of the rate coefficient using a relative method. The other rate coefficients have not been measured before and are compared to estimated values. Relative-rate studies were also performed, but required modification of the standard technique because N2O5 (used as the source of NO3) itself reacts with the hexenols. We used varying excesses of NO2 to determine simultaneously rate coefficients for reactions of NO3 and N2O5 with (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol of (5.2 +/- 1.8) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) and (3.1 +/- 2.3) x 10(-18) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). Our new determinations suggest atmospheric lifetimes with respect to NO3-initiated oxidation of roughly 1-4 h for the hexenols, comparable with lifetimes estimated for the atmospheric degradation by OH and shorter lifetimes than for attack by O-3. Recent measurements of [N2O5] suggest that the gas-phase reactions of N2O5 with unsaturated alcohols will not be of importance under usual atmospheric conditions, but they certainly can be in laboratory systems when determining rate coefficients.

Ethanol oxidation reaction on PtCeO(2)/C electrocatalysts prepared by the polymeric precursor method

This paper presents a study of the electrocatalysis of ethanol oxidation reactions in an acidic medium on Pt-CeO(2)/C (20 wt.% of Pt-CeO(2) on carbon XC-72R), prepared in different mass ratios by the polymeric precursor method. The mass ratios between Pt and CeO(2) (3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3) were confirmed by Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDAX). X-ray diffraction (XRD) structural characterization data shows that the Pt-CeO(2)/C catalysts are composed of nanosized polycrystalline non-alloyed deposits, from which reflections corresponding to the fcc (Pt) and fluorite (CeO(2)) structures were clearly observed. The mean crystallite sizes calculated from XRD data revealed that, independent of the mass ratio, a value close to 3 nm was obtained for the CeO(2) particles. For Pt, the mean crystallite sizes were dependent on the ratio of this metal in the catalysts. Low platinum ratios resulted in small crystallites. and high Pt proportions resulted in larger crystallites. The size distributions of the catalysts particles, determined by XRD, were confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) imaging. Cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometic experiments were used to evaluate the electrocatalytic performance of the different materials. In all cases, except Pt-CeO(2)/C 1:1, the Pt-Ceo(2)/C catalysts exhibited improved performance when compared with Pt/C. The best result was obtained for the Pt-CeO(2)/C 1:3 catalyst, which gave better results than the Pt-Ru/C (Etek) catalyst. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Temperature dependence of dielectric properties for Ba(Zr0.25Ti0.75)O-3 thin films obtained from the soft chemical method

Ba(Zr0.25Ti0.75)O-3(BZT) thin films prepared by the polymeric precursor method (PPM) were annealed at 500, 600, and 700 degrees C for 4h. All films crystallized in the perovskite structure present a crack-free microstructure. Dielectric properties of the BZT thin films were investigated as a function of frequency and applied voltage. The dielectric constant of the films were 36, 152 and 145 at 1 kHz, while the dielectric loss were 0.08, 0.08, and 0.12 at 1 MHz. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Empilhamento pelo método superfície de reflexão comum 2-D com topografia e introdução ao caso 3-D

O método de empilhamento sísmico CRS simula seções sísmicas ZO a partir de dados de cobertura múltipla, independente do macro-modelo de velocidades. Para meios 2-D, a função tempo de trânsito de empilhamento depende de três parâmetros, a saber: do ângulo de emergência do raio de reflexão normal (em relação à normal da superfície) e das curvaturas das frentes de onda relacionadas às ondas hipotéticas, denominadas NIP e Normal. O empilhamento CRS consiste na soma das amplitudes dos traços sísmicos em dados de múltipla cobertura, ao longo da superfície definida pela função tempo de trânsito do empilhamento CRS, que melhor se ajusta aos dados. O resultado do empilhamento CRS é assinalado a pontos de uma malha pré-definida na seção ZO. Como resultado tem-se a simulação de uma seção sísmica ZO. Isto significa que para cada ponto da seção ZO deve-se estimar o trio de parâmetros ótimos que produz a máxima coerência entre os eventos de reflexão sísmica. Nesta Tese apresenta-se fórmulas para o método CRS 2-D e para a velocidade NMO, que consideram a topografia da superfície de medição. O algoritmo é baseado na estratégia de otimização dos parâmetros de fórmula CRS através de um processo em três etapas: 1) Busca dos parâmetros, o ângulo de emergência e a curvatura da onda NIP, aplicando uma otimização global, 2) busca de um parâmetro, a curvatura da onda N, aplicando uma otimização global, e 3) busca de três parâmetros aplicando uma otimização local para refinar os parâmetros estimados nas etapas anteriores. Na primeira e segunda etapas é usado o algoritmo Simulated Annealing (SA) e na terceira etapa é usado o algoritmo Variable Metric (VM). Para o caso de uma superfície de medição com variações topográficas suaves, foi considerada a curvatura desta superfície no algoritmo do método de empilhamento CRS 2-D, com aplicação a dados sintéticos. O resultado foi uma seção ZO simulada, de alta qualidade ao ser comparada com a seção ZO obtida por modelamento direto, com uma alta razão sinal-ruído, além da estimativa do trio de parâmetros da função tempo de trânsito. Foi realizada uma nálise de sensibilidade para a nova função de tempo de trânsito CRS em relação à curvatura da superfície de medição. Os resultados demonstraram que a função tempo de trânsito CRS é mais sensível nos pontos-médios afastados do ponto central e para grandes afastamentos. As expressões da velocidade NMO apresentadas foram aplicadas para estimar as velocidades e as profundidades dos refletores para um modelo 2-D com topografia suave. Para a inversão destas velocidades e profundidades dos refletores, foi considerado o algoritmo de inversão tipo Dix. A velocidade NMO para uma superfície de medição curva, permite estimar muito melhor estas velocidades e profundidades dos refletores, que as velocidades NMO referidas as superfícies planas. Também apresenta-se uma abordagem do empilhamento CRS no caso 3-D. neste caso a função tempo de trânsito depende de oito parâmetros. São abordadas cinco estratégias de busca destes parâmetros. A combinação de duas destas estratégias (estratégias das três aproximações dos tempos de trânsito e a estratégia das configurações e curvaturas arbitrárias) foi aplicada exitosamente no empilhamento CRS 3-D de dados sintéticos e reais.

A Solid Film Electrode of Intermetallic Ag 2 Hg 3.02 for the Direct Determination of Folic Acid in Fresh and Processed Fruit Juices

AgSIE was used for the direct analysis of folic acid (FA), with a detection limit and lower level of quantitation of 6.8 x10-10 mol L-1 and 2.3 x 10 8 mol L-1. The analysis in fresh and processed fruits was done without any sample pretreatment. In strawberry and acerola juices, FA concentration level values were below the method detection limit. FA was detectable in peach (77.7 0.4 mg L-1 and 64.4 0.5 mgL-1), Persian lime (45.4 0.7 mg L-1), pineapple Hawaii (66.2 0.4 mgL-1), pear pineapple (35.3 0.6 mgL-1), cashew (54.4 0.5 mgL-1) , passion fruit (73.2 0.3 mgL-1), and apple (84.4 0.5 mg L-1 ).

The 2:1 cycloadducts from [3+2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxide and vinylacetic acid. Synthesis and liquid crystal behaviour

Four liquid crystals (LC) 3,7a-bis(4-alkyloxyphenyl)-7,7a-dihydro-6H-isoxazolo[2,3-d][1,2,4]oxadiazol-6-yl)acetic acid (7a-d) were synthesised and the mesomorphic behaviour reported. The LCs were characterised as 2: 1 bisadducts, which were obtained from a double [3+2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. In the first step, the cycloaddition of 4-alkyloxyphenylnitrile oxide (4a-d) and vinylacetic acid (5) gave the initial unobserved 1:1 cycloadducts 2-[3-(4-alkyloxyphenyl)-4,5-dihydroisoxazol-5-yl]acetic acid (6a-d). In the second step, the addition of a second equivalent of 4 to 6 yielded the 2: 1 bisadducts 7a-d without any traces of 6. All compounds 7a-d were unstable during the transition from the mesophase to the isotropic state upon first heating as evidenced by the large peaks in the differential scanning calorimetry traces. Due to the chemical instability of the compounds upon heating, the transition temperature related to the smectic C to smectic A transitions was acquired by means of an image processing method. X-Ray diffraction experiments were also used to analyse the liquid-crystalline phases. A theoretical calculation was performed using density functional theory (DFT) methods at the PBE1PBE/6-311+G(2d,p) level (with solvent effect) in order to get information about the energetic profile of the 2: 1 cycloaddition. DFT studies revealed that the cycloaddition process is controlled by the HOMO(dipolarophile) - LUMO(1,3-dipole), and that the double [3+2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction is quite possible.

Synthese, Tritierung, 99m Tc-Markierung und Evaluierung von Benzamid-Derivaten zur Visualisierung der D 2, D 3-Rezeptoren

Die Diagnose und Therapie von neurodegenerativen Krankheiten, wie beispielsweise Morbus Parkinson besitzt in der heutigen Gesellschaft eine immer größere Bedeutung. Über moderne, bild¬gebende nuklear¬medizinische Verfahren wie SPECT und PET ist es mit geeigneten Radioliganden möglich, Morbus Parkinson vor dem Auftreten von Symptomen zu diagnostizieren. Ein wichtiger Ansatzpunkt zur Diagnose von Morbus Parkinson ist die Visualisierung der postsynaptischen Dopamin-Rezeptoren über radioaktiv (11C, 18F, 123I) markierte Benz¬amid-Derivate. Auf Grundlage der (S)-Pyrolidin-2,3-dimethoxy-Benzamid-Struktur des 18F-Liganden Fallypride wurden verschiedene 99mTc-markierte Benzamid-Derivate als potentielle Radio¬liganden zur Parkinson-Diagnostik entwickelt. Um das Potential von Metall-konjugierten Benzamiden abschätzen zu können, wurden zunächst einfache Vergleichssubstanzen entwickelt. Diese sollten die Einführung eines Chelators simulieren und wurden hierfür hinsichtlich ihrer in vitro-Bindungsaffinitäten zu den Dopamin-, Serotonin- und adrenergen Rezeptoren evaluiert. Die zunächst entwickelten Derivate mit unterschiedlichen Kettenlängen zur Kopplung des Chelators zeigten für die Propylkette Affinitäten im nanomolaren Bereich. Im Anschluss sollten basierend auf diesen Ergebnissen vier verschiedene Chelatoren (Carbony-Cyclopentadienyl, Amido-Cyclopentadienyl, 2-Pyridyl-Imin und N2S2) über eine Propylkette an die 5-Position der Benzamidgrundstruktur gekoppelt werden. Die geplante Synthese des Carbonyl-Cyclopentadienyl-Derivates gelang jedoch nicht. Für die weiteren Chelatoren (Amido-Cyclopentadieny, 2-Pyridyl-Imin und N2S2) konnten die jeweiligen Markierungs¬vorläufer und Rhenium-Komplexe dargestellt werden, die ebenfalls hinsichtlich ihrer Bindungs¬affinitäten evaluiert wurden. Die erzielten Affinitäten zeigten, dass eine Über¬tragung der Affinitäten der einfachen Vergleichssubstanzen auf die komplexeren Metall-Benzamide nicht möglich war. Insbesondere der N2S2-Rhenium-Komplex besitzt nur noch geringe Affinität (490 - 900 nM) zu den D2- und D3-Rezeptoren. Die mittel-affinen 2-Pyridyl-Imin- und Amdio¬cyclopentadien-Komplexe wurden mit 99mTc markiert und die Markierungsausbeute hinsichtlich Reaktionstemperatur, Markierungs-vorläuferkonzentration und Heizmethoden optimiert. Dabei konnte der Imin-Komplex quantitativ mittels fac-[99mTc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ in 30 Minuten bei 45°C markiert werden. Der Amido-Cyclopentadien-Komplex konnte über die Umsetzung des Ferrocen-Markierungsvorläufer mit Mn(CO)5Br und [99mTcO4]- in Ausbeuten von bis zu 60 % markiert werden. Im Anschluss an die Markierungen wurden die 99mTc-Komplexe über HPLC isoliert und in in vitro-Auto¬radiographien von Rattenhirnschnitten weiter evaluiert. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse bestätigten die für die Rhenium-Komplexe erzielten Affinitäten und zeigten keine spezifische Anreicherung in bestimmten Hirnarealen. Aus diesen Ergebnissen kann ge¬schlossen werden, dass die dargestellten 99mTc-Benzamide aufgrund mangelnder Affinitäten und einer hohen unspezifischen Bindung keine geeigneten Liganden zur Darstellung der D2- und D3- Rezeptoren sind. Um die dargestellten 99mTc-Benzamide mit [18F]Fallypride vergleichen zu können, wurde zusätzlich [3H]Fallypride dargestellt. Hierfür wurde zunächst der Nor-Markierungsvor¬läufer synthetisiert und die Markierungsausbeute optimiert. Die finale Umsetzung mit [3H]Methylnosylat ergab nach HPLC-Aufreinigung 15 mCi [3H]Fallypride mit einer radio¬chemischen Reinheit von >99,5 %. Erste Autoradiographien zeigten eine hohe Anreicherung des Liganden im Striatum, verbunden mit einer sehr niedrigen unspezifischen Bindung.
