Sendo a literatura do pass-through cambial sobre os preços domésticos extenso e com diferentes metodologias de cálculo, esta dissertação buscou explorar se a direção da variação da taxa de câmbio, ou seja, se apreciações ou depreciações tem diferentes impactos sobre a inflação. O objetivo é avaliar se o repasse cambial para o índice de preços ao consumidor é assimétrico. A metodologia utilizado foi através da estimação de uma Curva de Phillips com Limiar (Threshold) para o IPCA agregado e desagregado, sendo avaliado o período recente de 2001 a 2014. Os resultados apresentaram evidências de assimetria no repasse para os preços para a inflação agregada, porém não significante para a maioria dos núcleos analisados.

Empresas familiares (EF) representam mais de 70% do PIB mundial, estudos relacionados a estas empresas são inegavelmente importantes. Nestas empresas, um dos temas mais importantes e críticos é a sucessão da liderança, que deve ser devidamente estudada, planejada e implementada. Este trabalho buscou analisar os principais desafios encontrados durante o processo de sucessão da primeira para a segunda geração nas empresas familiares. Classificou-se como empresa familiar as empresas que tenham propriedade e sejam administradas por uma ou mais famílias. Como base de sucessão, utilizou-se o conceito das ações e eventos que levam à transição da liderança e poder de um membro da família para outro (Handler 1999). A abordagem metodológica caracteriza-se como um estudo qualitativo, feito por meio do estudo de caso com três empresas entrevistando fundadores, sucessores e colaboradores. Após considerar os desafios e as sugestões propostos pelos entrevistados, somou-se a análise e interpretação de aspectos propostos pelo autor. Ao final, por meio da constatação de alguns indícios, sugerem-se três pontos de atenção no processo 1) a dificuldade da aceitação da existência de sentimentos complexo no processo, 2) a importância do planejamento da sucessão e 3) a importância de um processo de comunicação efetiva. Conclui-se, sugerindo e justificando a utilização de duas ferramentas para auxiliar neste processo, 1- a utilização de boas práticas de governança corporativa e 2- a utilização de agentes externos no auxílio do enfrentamento das dificuldades encontradas.

As energias renováveis têm-se tornado uma alternativa viável e complementar aos combustíveis fósseis, pelo facto de serem energias virtualmente inesgotáveis, limpas e economicamente vantajosas. Um dos principais problemas associados às fontes de energia renováveis é a sua intermitência. Este problema impossibilita o controlo da produção de energia e reflete-se na qualidade da energia elétrica. Em sistemas de microprodução de energia, este problema pode ser atenuado com a inclusão de sistemas de armazenamento intermédio que possibilitam o armazenamento do excedente extraído das fontes renováveis, podendo ser utilizado como recurso auxiliar na alimentação de cargas ou como meio de estabilização e otimização do desempenho da Rede Elétrica de Energia (REE), evitando variações bruscas na energia transferida para a mesma. Os sistemas de microprodução com armazenamento intermédio podem ser considerados fundamentais na implementação do conceito de Rede Inteligente de Energia (RIE), visto serem sistemas de energia descentralizados que permitem uma melhor gestão da energia elétrica e uma consequente redução de custos. No presente trabalho desenvolveu-se um sistema de microprodução de energia renovável compatível com as fontes renováveis fotovoltaica e eólica, possuindo um banco de baterias como sistema de armazenamento intermédio. A construção deste sistema teve como principal objetivo seguir as referências de potência impostas pela RIE, independentemente das condições meteorológicas, com recurso à energia armazenada nas baterias, evitando a introdução de perturbações na REE ao nível da tensão e da frequência. Estudou-se o comportamento do sistema na ocorrência de variações bruscas da fonte renovável, perturbações na tensão da REE e introdução de cargas lineares e não lineares. Foi desenvolvido um protótipo experimental com painéis fotovoltaicos, no qual foram registados os valores de alguns parâmetros da qualidade da energia elétrica. Obteve-se uma resposta de aproximadamente 25 μs por parte das baterias para cada Watt de potência requisitado pela RIE.

Na unfolding method of linear intercept distributions and secction área distribution was implemented for structures with spherical grains. Although the unfolding routine depends on the grain shape, structures with spheroidal grains can also be treated by this routine. Grains of non-spheroidal shape can be treated only as approximation. A software was developed with two parts. The first part calculates the probability matrix. The second part uses this matrix and minimizes the chi-square. The results are presented with any number of size classes as required. The probability matrix was determined by means of the linear intercept and section area distributions created by computer simulation. Using curve fittings the probability matrix for spheres of any sizes could be determined. Two kinds of tests were carried out to prove the efficiency of the Technique. The theoretical tests represent ideal cases. The software was able to exactly find the proposed grain size distribution. In the second test, a structure was simulated in computer and images of its slices were used to produce the corresponding linear intercept the section area distributions. These distributions were then unfolded. This test simulates better reality. The results show deviations from the real size distribution. This deviations are caused by statistic fluctuation. The unfolding of the linear intercept distribution works perfectly, but the unfolding of section area distribution does not work due to a failure in the chi-square minimization. The minimization method uses a matrix inversion routine. The matrix generated by this procedure cannot be inverted. Other minimization method must be used

The preparation of cement slurries for offshore well cementing involves mixing all solid components to be added to the mixing water on the platform. The aim of this work was to study the formulation of pre-prepared dry mixtures, or grouts, for offshore oilwell cementing. The addition of mineral fillers in the strength of lightweight grouts applied for depths down to 400 m under water depths of 500 m was investigated. Lightweight materials and fine aggregates were selected. For the choice of starting materials, a study of the pozzolanic activity of low-cost fillers such as porcelain tile residue, microsilica and diatomaceous earth was carried out by X-ray diffraction and mechanical strength tests. Hardened grouts containing porcelain tile residue and microsilica depicted high strength at early ages. Based on such preliminary investigation, a study of the mechanical strength of grouts with density 1.74 g/cm3 (14.5 lb/gal) cured initially at 27 °C was performed using cement, microsilica, porcelain tile residue and an anti-foaming agent. The results showed that the mixture containing 7% of porcelain tile residue and 7% of microsilica was the one with the highest compressive strength after curing for 24 hours. This composition was chosen to be studied and adapted for offshore conditions based on testes performed at 4 °C. The grout containing cement, 7% of porcelain tile residue, 7% of active silica and admixtures (CaCl2), anti-foaming and dispersant resulted satisfactory rheology and mechanical strength after curing for 24 hours of curing

In this dissertation, the theoretical principles governing the molecular modeling were applied for electronic characterization of oligopeptide α3 and its variants (5Q, 7Q)-α3, as well as in the quantum description of the interaction of the aminoglycoside hygromycin B and the 30S subunit of bacterial ribosome. In the first study, the linear and neutral dipeptides which make up the mentioned oligopeptides were modeled and then optimized for a structure of lower potential energy and appropriate dihedral angles. In this case, three subsequent geometric optimization processes, based on classical Newtonian theory, the semi-empirical and density functional theory (DFT), explore the energy landscape of each dipeptide during the search of ideal minimum energy structures. Finally, great conformers were described about its electrostatic potential, ionization energy (amino acids), and frontier molecular orbitals and hopping term. From the hopping terms described in this study, it was possible in subsequent studies to characterize the charge transport propertie of these peptides models. It envisioned a new biosensor technology capable of diagnosing amyloid diseases, related to an accumulation of misshapen proteins, based on the conductivity displayed by proteins of the patient. In a second step of this dissertation, a study carried out by quantum molecular modeling of the interaction energy of an antibiotic ribosomal aminoglicosídico on your receiver. It is known that the hygromycin B (hygB) is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that affects ribosomal translocation by direct interaction with the small subunit of the bacterial ribosome (30S), specifically with nucleotides in helix 44 of the 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA). Due to strong electrostatic character of this connection, it was proposed an energetic investigation of the binding mechanism of this complex using different values of dielectric constants (ε = 0, 4, 10, 20 and 40), which have been widely used to study the electrostatic properties of biomolecules. For this, increasing radii centered on the hygB centroid were measured from the 30S-hygB crystal structure (1HNZ.pdb), and only the individual interaction energy of each enclosed nucleotide was determined for quantum calculations using molecular fractionation with conjugate caps (MFCC) strategy. It was noticed that the dielectric constants underestimated the energies of individual interactions, allowing the convergence state is achieved quickly. But only for ε = 40, the total binding energy of drug-receptor interaction is stabilized at r = 18A, which provided an appropriate binding pocket because it encompassed the main residues that interact more strongly with the hygB - C1403, C1404, G1405, A1493, G1494, U1495, U1498 and C1496. Thus, the dielectric constant ≈ 40 is ideal for the treatment of systems with many electrical charges. By comparing the individual binding energies of 16S rRNA nucleotides with the experimental tests that determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygB, it is believed that those residues with high binding values generated bacterial resistance to the drug when mutated. With the same reasoning, since those with low interaction energy do not influence effectively the affinity of the hygB in its binding site, there is no loss of effectiveness if they were replaced.

This work had as objective to evaluate the performance of mechanisms of cutting of the no-tillage seedrills in different vegetable coverings and applied vertical loads. The experimental design used was in randomized blocks and factorial scheme 3 x 4, with four replications. The trials were accomplished with three different mechanisms of culting of the straw (plane disc, corrugated disc and wavy disc), using four different vertical loads (750, 1500, 2250 and 3000 N). All treatments were accomplished in five straw coverings (corn, sorghum, triticale, black oats and radish). The results showed that larger the amount of dry matter covering the soil, higher the demand of horizontal and vertical forces. The wavy disc promotes the largest values of area of mobilized soil and requires large horizontal force, vertical force and horizontal force per area of cutting depth of discs (specific force). The treatment with plane disc required higher values of the horizontal forces per area of mobilized soil and of vertical force in the corn and sorghum coverings.

Knowledge of the leaf area plant are needed for agronomic and physiological studies involving plant growth. The aim of this study was to obtain a mathematical model using linear measures of leaf dimensions, which will allow the estimation of leaf area of Crotalaria juncea L. Correlation studies were conducted involving real leaf area (Sf) and leaf length (C), maximum leaf width (L) and the product between C and L. All tested models (linear, exponential or geometric) provided good estimation of leaf area (above 87%). The better fit was attained using linear model, passing or not through the origin. From a practical viewpoint, it is suggested to use the linear model involving the C and L product, using a linear coefficient equal to zero. Estimation of leaf area of Crotalaria juncea L. can be obtained using the model Sf = 0.7160 x (C*L) with a determination coefficient of 0.9712.

The aim of this research was to obtain a mathematical equation to estimate the leaf area of Ageratum conyzoides based on linear measures of its leaf blade. Correlation studies were done using real leaf area (Sf), leaf length (C) and the maximum leaf width (L), in about 200 leaf blades. The evaluated statistic models were: linear Y = a + bx; simple linear Y = bx; geometric Y = ax(b); and exponential Y = ab(x). The evaluated linear, exponential and geometric models can be used in the billygoat weed leaf area estimation. In the practical sense, the simple linear regression model is suggested using the C*L multiplication product and taking the linear coefficient equal to zero, because it showed weak-alteration on sum of squares error and satisfactory residual analysis. Thus, an estimate of A conyzoides leaf area can be obtained using the equation Sf = 0.6789*(C*L), with a determination coefficient of 0.8630.
