The aim of the study was to develop a system of growth and yield models for thinned stands of Eucalyptus spp.; and to assess the behavior of the growth in scenarios with 10% decrease or increase in rainfall. The probability distribution functions Weibull 2 and 3 parameters and Johnson SB for different methods were fitted. Correlation between the fitted parameters with age was evaluated. Dominant height growth behavior was evaluated to check if thinned stand changes its growth when compared to a non-thinned stands. The stand variables dominant height and basal area were projected and simultaneously predicted and projected, respectively. Individual tree equations were fitted, which were fitted as functions of stand level variables in order to decrease the error propagation. R software was used to fit all the proposed models and consequently all the fitted models were evaluated by their parameters significance (F-test) and graphs of predicted values in relation to the observed values around the 1:1 line. Thus, the prognosis system was made by two ways, first one using the full data set, and for the second one the dataset was restricted at age 7.5. Increase and decrease in 20% of rainfall were assessed by updating the site index function. Method of moments was the most precise to describe the diameter distribution for every age in eucalyptus stands for Johnson SB and Weibull 2 parameters pdfs. When observed for each pdf the correlation for their fitted parameters with age, we noticed that shape parameters for a thinned stand were no longer correlated with age, differently of non-thinned stands. Thus, thinning effect was accounted in the basal area prediction and projection modeling. This result emphasized the necessity of applying the Parameter Recovery method in order to assess differences and capture the right pattern for thinned and non-thinned stands in the future. Dominant height was not influenced by thinning intensity. Therefore the fitted Chapman-Richards model did not account for a stand being thinned or not. All the fitted equations behaved with good precision, no matter using full or precocious dataset. The prognosis system using full and/or precocious date set was evaluated for when using Parameter Recovery method for Sb and Weibull pdfs, and by then, graphical analysis and precision statistics showed appropriated results. Finally, the increase or decrease in rainfall regime were observed for eucalyptus stand yields and we may notice how important is to observe this effect, since the growth pattern is strictly affected by water.

As concessionárias de energia, para garantir que sua rede seja confiável, necessitam realizar um procedimento para estudo e análise baseado em funções de entrega de energia nos pontos de consumo. Este estudo, geralmente chamado de planejamento de sistemas de distribuição de energia elétrica, é essencial para garantir que variações na demanda de energia não afetem o desempenho do sistema, que deverá se manter operando de maneira técnica e economicamente viável. Nestes estudos, geralmente são analisados, demanda, tipologia de curva de carga, fator de carga e outros aspectos das cargas existentes. Considerando então a importância da determinação das tipologias de curvas de cargas para as concessionárias de energia em seu processo de planejamento, a Companhia de Eletricidade do Amapá (CEA) realizou uma campanha de medidas de curvas de carga de transformadores de distribuição para obtenção das tipologias de curvas de carga que caracterizam seus consumidores. Neste trabalho apresentam-se os resultados satisfatórios obtidos a partir da utilização de Mineração de Dados baseada em Inteligência Computacional (Mapas Auto-Organizáveis de Kohonen) para seleção das curvas típicas e determinação das tipologias de curvas de carga de consumidores residenciais e industriais da cidade de Macapá, localizada no estado do Amapá. O mapa auto-organizável de Kohonen é um tipo de Rede Neural Artificial que combina operações de projeção e agrupamento, permitindo a realização de análise exploratória de dados, com o objetivo de produzir descrições sumarizadas de grandes conjuntos de dados.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of different exercise programs on the psychological and cognitive functions in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Forty-five patients with PD participated in the study. The participants were randomized in three intervention programs: Group-1 (n=15, cognitive-activities), Group-2 (n=15, multimodal exercise) and Group-3 (n=15, exercises for posture and gait). The clinical, psychological and cognitive functions were assessed before and after 4 months of intervention. Univariate analysis did not reveal significant interactions between groups and time (p>0.05). However, univariate analysis for time revealed differences in stress level and memory. Participants showed less physical stress (p<0.01) and overall stress (p < 0.04) and higher performance in episodic declarative memory (p < 0.001) after exercise. These findings suggest that group work with motor or non-motor activities can improve cognitive and psychological functions of patients with PD.
