Microinversor integrado ao módulo fotovoltaico para sistemas conectados à rede elétrica utilizando controlador ressonante

This paper shows the modeling and control of a single-phase full-bridge inverter with high-frequency transformer that may be used as part of a two-stage converter with transformerless DC-DC side or as a single-stage converter (simple DC-AC converter) for grid-connected PV applications. The inverter is modeled in order to obtain a small-signal transfer function used to design the P+Resonant current controller. A highfrequency step-up transformer results in reduced voltage switches and better efficiency compared with converters in which the transformer is used on the DC-DC side. Simulations and experimental results with a 200 W prototype are shown. 1

Queixa escolar: uma nova proposta de avaliação

Ao iniciarmos nossa atuação numa Secretaria de Educação nos Setores de Psicologia e Psicopedagogia notamos que as práticas enfatizavam avaliação e diagnósticos dos alunos para encaminhamentos médico. Para as escolas da rede, o trabalho da equipe multidisciplinar era uma ponte para os serviços de saúde, bem como representavam o acesso a profissionais que poderiam medicar. Neste sentido, este estudo teve como objetivo refletir, a partir da atuação dos membros das equipes escolares e professores, sobre os entraves nos processos de ensino aprendizagem, buscando, especificamente, descentralizar o foco no aluno e promover um olhar mais amplo para as queixas escolares, que possa contemplar as relações que se estabelecem nas instituições. O estudo baseou-se em uma pesquisa-ação e a análise seguiu a abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa. Por meio de nossas intervenções nas escolas percebemos o quanto os diagnósticos médicos são valorizadas pelos profissionais da educação e como estes são utilizados com justificativas para o fracasso escolar.

A (trans)formação vivencial: a práxis educativa e a formação para docência frente o papel das narrativas

This work by questioning the methodology and curriculum standardization and the separation between theory and practice, both of the top training courses for educators and schools in general, proposes to investigate, through action research, writing and analysis of narratives drawn from the author's experiences as a volunteer educator for a Brazilian educational project inspired by the experience of the Portugal's Escola da Ponte, the (trans)formation of educators in educational praxis, ie, the training that is not represented in formatting. Experiences, reflections and analyzes developed are in line to share new possibilities in the training of education professionals to effectively contribute to the methodological and curricular flexibility and with no dissociation between practice and theory present in current and anachronistic higher education courses educators, as well as the vast majority of elementary schools, both public and private and secondary levels

Dispositivo de microdescargas em gases na pressão atmosférica

This work describes the development of an electro-mechanical micro-discharges device operating at ambient condition of pressure and temperature, capable to produce plasma jets for surface finishing. The discharges are produced through a needle shape electrode hollow cathode type by which flows the helium gas. The voltage applied on the electrode is provided for an AC/AC switching voltage converter of full-bridge topology. The converter is energized by a power line of 110/220 VAC, 60 Hz and gives a 1000 V peak-to-peak from 5 kHz to 40 kHz square waveform output. The output frequency is defined by a control signal provided by an external signal generator. The equipment setup includes output acquisition of voltage and current and a photo-detector for photo-electrical measurements, which allows an optical characterization of the plasma jet

Etnografia de arquivos: entre o passado e o presente

O ensaio trata da metodologia de estudo de arquivos documentais gerados na modernidade como forma de entender a relação que se estabelecia entre Estado e sociedade. A partir de pesquisas desenvolvidas junto ao Arquivo Miroel Silveira da Escola de Comunicações e Artes da Universidade de São Paulo, composto de processos de censura prévia ao teatro em São Paulo de 1930 a 1970, procura explicitar o método etnográfico como meio de interpretar as informações e as relações entre as partes envolvidas. A etnografia possibilita ainda estabelecer uma ponte entre o passado e a atualidade, época marcada pela proliferação de arquivos públicos e privados.

Dyspeptic symptoms and delayed gastric emptying of solids in patients with inactive Crohn's disease

Background: Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) have been shown to present dyspeptic symptoms more frequently than the general population. Some of these symptoms could be related to motility disorders to some degree. Then, we propose to investigate whether gastric emptying of solids in patients with inactive CD is delayed and to determine the relationships between gastric emptying and dyspeptic symptoms in inactive CD. Methods: Twenty-six patients with inactive Crohn's disease, as defined by a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) < 150, underwent a gastric emptying test by breath test using C-13 octanoic acid coupled to a solid meal and answered a validated questionnaire (The Porto Alegre Dyspeptic Symptoms Questionnaire) to assess dyspeptic symptoms. Patients with scores >= 6 were considered to have dyspepsia. The control group was composed by 19 age-and sex-matched healthy volunteers. Results: Patients with CD had a significantly longer t 1/2 and t lag (p<0.05) than the controls. CD patients with dyspepsia had significantly (p<0.05) prolonged gastric emptying when compared to patients without dyspeptic symptoms. When the individual symptom patterns were analyzed, only vomiting was significantly associated with delayed gastric emptying (p<0.05). There was no difference between the subgroups of patients with respect to gender, CDAI scores, disease location, clinical behavior (obstructive/obstructive) or previous gastrointestinal surgery. Conclusion: Delayed gastric emptying in inactive Crohn's disease patients seems to be associated with dyspeptic symptoms, particularly vomiting, even without any evidence of gastrointestinal obstruction.
