“Audiências cativas" em espaço escolar? O fenómeno das marcas-ilustração no manual escolar

O fenómeno do Marketing Escolar inscreve-se numa forma de publicitação do espaço escolar, a que não é alheio o papel da criança na sociedade de consumo actual. Centra-se esta pesquisa, na problematização da relação entre manual escolar – livro de carácter didáctico-pedagógico, em estreita conexão com os Programas Curriculares Nacionais – e product placement, ferramenta do Marketing, catalisadora da esfera do consumo, por outro. Em síntese, constata-se que, num mundo de marcas e bens globalizado, as fontes que conjuntamente constituem o mercado de influência das crianças são, afinal, múltiplas e dispersas, neutralizando portanto os efeitos da comercialização do currículo no modelo tridimensional de mercado.

Cativas e Bichas, Meninas e Moças : a subalternidade social feminina e a formação do mercado matrimonial de Macau (1590-1725)

A história social de Macau constitui um campo de estudo largamente por cultivar, mais ainda quando se procura reconstruir e interpretar a circulação de crianças, jovens e mulheres que, de origem fundamentalmente chinesa e asiática, em profunda situação de subalternidade e exploração sociais, foram concorrendo quase paradoxalmente para a sobrevivência de uma presença política, económica, cultural e simbólica que se reivindicava «portuguesa». No território macaense, distinguindo-se do que se passava em outros espaços coloniais, como Goa ou o Brasil, a presença de mulheres europeias é praticamente inexistente ou fragmentária até quase finais do século XIX, quando o estado central começa sistematicamente a funcionalizar e a assalariar as longínquas administrações, contingentes militares e burocracias coloniais. Em rigor, de forma generalizada, a presença social portuguesa nos diferentes enclaves asiáticos que se organizavam sob a tutela político-institucional do chamado «Estado da Índia», da África Oriental a Timor, não mobilizava mulheres de origens europeias, descontados alguns exemplos, aventuras e esforços de circulação de orfãs, maioritariamente limitados ao enclave goês,2 mas quase sem expressão no devir social de Macau.

Um algoritmo híbrido para o problema de roteamento de veículos com frotas heterogêneas

This paper aims to propose a hybrid meta-heuristics for the Heterogeneous Fleet Vehicle Routing Problem (HVRP), which is a combinatorial optimization problem NP-hard, and is characterized by the use of a limited fleet consists of different vehicles with different capacities. The hybrid method developed makes use of a memetic algorithm associated with the component optimizer Vocabulary Building. The resulting hybrid meta-heuristic was implemented in the programming language C + + and computational experiments generated good results in relation to meta-heuristic applied in isolation, proving the efficiency of the proposed method.

It was necessary to investigate and analyze, technologically, if the biodiesel fuels were presenting troubleshooting relative to wear of parts lied to fuel and to evaluate the consumption fluctuations of this fuel. The urban and intercity bus companies, localized in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte state, Brazil, had 41 and 12 vehicles, respectively. It were analyzed datasheet of each one vehicle during three years, since 2008 until 2010 and were interviewed the management of the maintenance team of bus companies relative to aspects concerning the substitution of the diesel fuel by the B5 biodiesel. The second aim of this study was visually inspect the wear of the parts directly lied to combustion process. For this reason, it was investigated a stationary engine, manufactured by Branco BD5, 5 HP of power, fueled by (a) diesel, (b) biodiesel B5, (c) biodiesel B20 and (d) diesel or biodiesel, both contaminated by distilled water. In this engine, its power utilizing biodiesel B5 versus diesel was lower about 5.2% and, in the investigated case of B20 versus diesel, it was lower around 11.5%

Estudo da viabilidade da implantação de frotas de veículos elétricos e híbridos elétricos no atual cenário econômico, político, energético e ambiental brasileiro

Currently there are two car models that use electricity in their propulsion systems, the electric vehicle and the hybrid electric vehicle. The electric vehicles are classified as vehicles that use electric motors in their propulsion system and batteries as a power source, on the other hand, the hybrid vehicles are classified as vehicles that use both electric motors and internal combustion engines in their propulsion system, using both batteries and líquid fuels as a power source. The main goal of this work is to analyze the characteristics of electric and hybrid electric vehicles and demonstrate the unfeasibility of the electric vehicle in the current economic, political, energetic and environmental brazilian scenario, for this purpose it was realized a study about the current brazilian situation regarding to electricity generation, current conservation status of road network, lack of electrical infrastructure for charging batteries, national lithium reserves, environmental characteristics, tax incentives, economic scenario, oil market and political positioning related to the implantation of electric or hybrid electric fleets in nacional territory. The operational characteristics analysis of electric and hybrid electric vehicles in this current scenario leads to the conclusion that currently a growth of electric vehicles fleets on a national scale is totally impractical in the Brazil, Thus, the introduction of green vehicles probably will occur primarily with hybrid electric models, motivated mainly due the bigger autonomy of this models compared to electric models, lower cost of hybrid electric models compared to electric models, factors related to the lack of recharging infrastructure and also factors related to political positioning

Merluccius hubbsi (Teleostei: Merlucciidae): stock identification based on reproductive biology in the south-southeast brazilian region

The Argentine hake, Merluccius hubbsi, a demersal-pelagic species found from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to the Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, has become an important target of the Brazilian bottom-trawler fleet since 2001. Earlier studies focusing on the species have suggested that more than one stock might occur off the Brazilian coast, in accordance with environmental features. In order to evaluate this hypothesis, fish were collected from four different areas in the Brazilian waters in which the hake is distributed, during the summers and winters of 1996-2001 and 2004, the females being used to analyze and compare spatial-temporal variations in ovarian maturation. Gonad indexes were also applied for the same purpose. Results indicate a north-south spawning gradient occurring as from summer at around 21°S to winter near 34°S, leading to the identification of two distinct stocks: one located between 21°S and 29°S (Southeastern stock) and the other between 29°S and 34°S (Southern stock), this latter shared with Uruguay and Argentina. Brazilian stocks present clear signs of overexploitation, the situation calling for an urgent solution.

Sistema informatizado de controle da frota

O processo de controle de quilometragem, consumo de combust??vel, custos operacionais, manuten????o preventiva e reparos era moroso, centralizado e burocratizado, reduzindo a efici??ncia das atividades que dependiam da frota. Implantou-se um sistema de controle informatizado, que permite estabelecer, com rapidez e precis??o, as caracter??sticas e identifica????o do ve??culo; a aliena????o do ve??culo (venda ou cess??o); o remanejamento dos ve??culos; a quilometragem/abastecimento, custo e consumo; a manuten????o/conserva????o; os reparos necess??rios e realizados; o custo operacional. As unidades descentralizadas ganharam autonomia no gerenciamento de suas frotas. O sistema implantado proporcionou agilidade no controle da frota, facilidade no acesso ??s informa????es, desburocratiza????o, descentraliza????o e rapidez no processamento dos dados
