Questo studio svilluppa una riflessione sull incorporazione nella istituzione scolastica di un bene culturale, nel caso la Capoeira, mettendo in luce i sensi ad essa attribuita nell ambito del sistema pubblico dell insegnamento del Distretto Federale, denunziando il processo di assepsia al quale é sottomessa quando sottoposta alle regole della scuola. Un quadro teorico di orientazione fenomenologica modula lo sguardo che scruta i temi elencati nell argomentazione, creando matrici di pensiero di orientazione umanista, che difendono un processo di Educazione diretto per lo sviluppo del pensiero critico, della creativitá e dell autonomia dell uomo. In queste basi si questionano i sgnificati reali della Capoeira nelle sue accezioni di lotta, divertimento, sport, sagezza ecc. Attraverso la ricerca bibliografica, l autore presenta un analisi comparativa, in perspettiva storica, che permette di mettere in evidenza i sensi prodotti in determinati constesti della ricerca, utili al problema del tema, come la Filosofia, la Scuola e la propria Capoeira. Le differenti variabili che compongono forme di vedere e di esprimire le relazioni uomo-mondo, in questi spazi, sono state minuziosamente descritte e interpretate, dando preferenza alla visione fenemenologica-esistenziale-ermeneutica, che si fondamenta nella intersoggetivitá e nella ricerca della comprensione dell uomo e della sua realtá come parti del fenomeno essere-nel-mondo concetto elaborato da Heidegger che sostiene il metodo qui utilizzato per la comprensione del fenomeno scuola . Interviste con alunni e professionali di nove scuole della rete pubblica dell insegnamento del Distretto Federale sono state aggiunte e indirizzate e interpretate secondo un orientacione qualitativo di base ermeneutica, cercando di intendere le trasformazioni imposte alla Capoeira col fine di adattarla al contesto scolastico. Lo studio há permesso di comparare la Capoeira al contesto sociale dove si inserisce, constatando que nella escuola essa assume una razionalitá moderna che le impone significati e nuove funzioni, sostenute in modelli culturali tipici dell elite educativa, in una logica scientifica-tecnlogica che la riveste con l immagine del denominato sport di rendimento , pieno di metodi, regole, efficienza e risultati. Nel denunciare gli aspetti di alienazione e addestramento che reggono il processo scolastico dell insegnamento e della pratica della Capoeira nella Scuola e nel proporre l inizio di un conjunto di azioni concrete que stimolino la capoerizzazione della Scuola, questo studio permette pensare alle pratiche educative di maniera critica e cosciente, allo stesso tempo in cui approfondisce la conoscenza di una produzione culturale autentica, mettendo in evidenza le sue radici afro-brasiliane come uno degli elementi constitutivi della formazione dell uomo brasiliano.

In South America the osteoglossiforms are represented by the Arapaima and the Osteoglossum sorts, which are mostly found in the Amazonic basin, Tocantins Araguaia. There are virtually no genetic studies on this group, which highlights conservation groups need for information. The Arapaima gigas species, of the hydrographic basin Tocantins Araguaia, showed a 2n=56 chromosomes, with cariotypical formula: 28M/SM+28ST/A. Silver nitrate marking revealed a simple RON, located intersticially in the shorter arm of pair three, confirmed by a fluorescent hybration in situ, with a rDNA 18S probe, that highlighted a polymorphism in the RON sites. The constituent heterocromatin was found in the centromerical region of all chromosomes. The molecular genetic studies with RAPD marker showed the presence of only one Arapaima gigas population, with a significant intrapopulational variation. The results obtained in this work are an important contribution to the understanding of the genetics of the Arapaima gigas species and the Osteoglossiforms group, providing, moreover, subsidies for genetic handling and conservation of the Arapaima gigas species in the Médio Araguaia, state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.

Evaluation or teaching programs that emphasize the student s difficulties indicate to the educators which developmental areas are presenting deficits and where to invest for the recovering of these students. The current Educational Policies and the new conception of mental deficiency state guidelines about the inclusion of the handicapped individuals in common spaces and call for the reflection of the use of educative practices with the vision centered in the person as a subject that has desires. This demands from the educators the exercise of looking at student s abilities, and educating him/her in real environments in order to allow them to live in real environments. In this study, it was investigated the effects of the Natural Functional Curriculum application in: (a) student s interests in the acquisition of the proposed abilities; (b) the change of the interests and abilities repertoire; (c) individual s general functioning; (e) student s generalization at home; and (f) the learning maintenance. The Study started from an evaluation centered in the person. Participated in the study two adult persons with Autism and Invasive Developmental Disturbance associated to a Severe Mental Deficiency. The study was realized in the Brazil Ann Sullivan Center R.P . Initially the level of student s interest and abilities were evaluated. Their performance was evaluated by an operant baseline (Lbo) and supported baseline (Lba) in daily living activities, home living and functional academics. Based on this evaluation, an individualized Natural Functional Curriculum was organized and trained in group and in natural environments. The data was collected in a period that varied from 33 to 44 weeks. The students were re evaluated daily for each task and as a whole after four months. A method to evaluate and quantify student s level of performance and interest was developed through the support needed in real circumstances. The results show that in both students the interests are associated with the performance in most of the activities and that in the final general functioning they needed much less support in relation to their initial performance. It was observed that both participants had their interest and ability repertoire in the proposed tasks, estimated by Lbo and Lba, increased significantly, and it was generalized in the student's home and maintained upon follow-up. It was concluded that: (a) The proposed method allows to evaluate and to quantify the interests and abilities of severe mentally retarded individuals with communications deficits and autism; (b) The Functional Natural Curriculum, associated with the evaluation method developed in this study, is an educational alternative to teach useful concepts and abilities, if situations such as age, desires, student s capabilities to inform and to make choices are respected; (c) The operant baseline emphasizes normality and dependency in a way that minimizes the student potential; (d) The supported baseline, transform the handicapped in a unique Person and that they are different from others.

The identification of genetic marks can provide information about the distribution of genetic variability in relation to populational size and parental generation, besides the discrimination of lines and/or individuals. Researches carried out in different shrimp species reared at captivity have demonstrated that a regular monitoring of the genetic variability levels of stocks, through identification of molecular markers, is essential to an adequate management orientation. In the present work, RAPD markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and to determine the divergence and identity relationships among different broodstocks of the marine shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei reared at Brazil. The DNA extraction was performed according to Sambrook et al. (1989) and PCR reactions were accomplished by using the kit Ready-To-Go RAPD Analysis Beads (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). The percentage of polymorphic loci, allele frequencies, diversity indexes, and Nei´s genetic distance and identity were determined; and dendrograms of genetic similarity were built, by using the software POPGENE, version 1.31 (Yeh et al., 1999). The Jaccard´s genetic similarity coefficient, which ignores the absence of band as an indicator of similarity, was calculated by using the software NTSYS, version 2.0 (Rohlf, 1993). A total of 332 individuals from 19 broodstocks were analyzed, five of them belonging to a same inbred line. Sixty-four fragments were identified when a set of six primers was adopted to perform RAPD-PCR. The genetic diversity and similarity indexes demonstrated a reduced variability in stocks at initial domestication process. The analysis of genetic distance and identity evidenced that the reared stocks are closely related, lacking significant divergences. The values obtained in the inbreeding line revealed a progressive decreasing of genetic variation throughout the generations. The dendrogram demonstrated that as long as the generation increases, the genetic structure changes and becomes more and more distant from that observed in the first populations. According to analysis by non-linear regression, if this tendency is maintained, the levels of genetic variation can get close to zero before the stock reaches the 19th generation. The molecular data obtained in the present work reinforce the suggestion that the management nowadays carried out by Brazilian larviculture laboratories to compose and maintain broodstocks of L. vannamei, leads to a reduction of the levels of genetic diversity of captive populations. The development of genetically divergent lines and crossbreeding programs might contribute to the establishment of more adequate strategies.

With the aim to analyse the Simuliidae diversity in the State of São Paulo streams, a program of collection was done during two weather seasons (dry/2001; wet/2002) in 33 aquatic systems, including forested and open low order streams and outflow of water impoundments in 11 areas inside the Mata Atlântica and Cerrado forest. The immatures were collected manually and with the Surber sampler. Overall 26 Simuliidae species were analyzed and identified of which 8 were new occurrences to São Paulo State and 1 to Brazil. Simulium pertinax, S. incrustatum, S. perflavum, S. noguerai and S. inaequale were the most frequent species, collected in at least 30% of the water bodies. The numerical population density didn t show significant difference between the weather seasons (Kruskal-Wallis non parametric test). The relations between the taxonomic structure and the environment variables were analyzed by cluster analyses and principal components (Spearman s rank coefficent). Water velocity and streams dimensions were the main variables that explained the distribution of Simuliidae species. The anthropic impact level, as impoundment or deforestation may also influence the species distribution.

Chironomidae is an important group among the aquatic Diptera significantly participating in the composition of the benthic macroinvertebrate community of a vaariety of aquatic systems. It has been estimated that there exists at least 2.000-3.000 species in each biogeographical region. In Brazil, however, there are few studies on the ecology and taxonomy of this group. In Sao Paulo State 89 genera and 66 species were registered so far. Aiming to contribute to the advance in the knowledge on this family, the present work analized the Chironominae occurring at the State Park of Campos de Jordao, considering the absence of data regarding this family for that region which has peculiar characteristics for Sao Paulo State, such as: high altitude and subtropical high a altitude temperate climate. Samplings for the immature phase were performed by using a Surber type sampler and a D net. The samples were taken at the rivers Galharada and its affluent, Campo do Meio and Casquilho, all them of low order, with stony beds, protected by riparian vegetation; The water is transparent, cold, well oxygenated, acid, with low electrical conductivity and turbidity. Adults were captured close to the sampling points of the larvae using light trap. The results revealed differences in the structure of the communities among the streams. From cluster analysis it was possible to see the clustering of Galharada sampling points located in a central region of the park and mainly represented by the taxa aff.Omisus sp1 and Corynoneura. On the other hand the sampling points Campo do Meio and Casquilho, suffering anthropogenic impacts presented a dominance of aff. Pseudochironomus sp1 species. The diversity of adult specimens was higher than that of larvae, and new records of species for Sao Paulo State were found (Neelamia) and Brazil (Paramerina), as well as new species (Antillocladius sp1 and Goeldichironomus sp). The faunistic data will be incorporated and made available by the Environmental Information System é SinBiota/FAPESP.

Knowledge of the shape evolution and shrinkage of a spherical gel system during drying by forced convection significantly enhances the understanding of this process under the vision of the transport phenomena. This work consists in the development of a gel system, with spherical geometry, which allows analyzing the effect of the fluid flow, in the boundary layer, on the moisture transport, shrinkage and on the shape evolution of the sample, during drying in an air stream forced convection equipment. The shrinkage was observed through the capture of images, used for the calculation of shape factors. The process was evaluated under a laminar flow (based on particle diameter), with a agar concentration of 1.5 and 3% (wet basis), fluid velocities varying from 1.0 to 2.0 m/s and initial particle diameters of 1.61.10-2 and 2.66.10-2 m, being the temperature maintained at 50 0C. The results confirmed with good reproducibility, proved statistically, that the circularity and specific mass of the samples decrease according to the formation of accentuated two-dimensional moisture profiles, for moisture contents lower than the critical value. The difference between the maximum and minimum diameters of a sample, during the process, evidenced the variation of the mass transfer rates between the previous and subsequent areas. It was inferred that during the constant drying rate period, the analysis is pondered in relation to the moisture transport, with the circularity and specific mass of the samples staying approximately constant. The gel system used allowed to reach the proposed objective, in a selective way, representing materials intensely affected by the shrinkage.

Drying processes in fluidized and vibro-fluidized beds are nowadays being widely investigated in the literature, because such beds offer many advantages over other types of dryers. The purpose of this work is to contribute for the research in this area by presenting an extensive investigation of the drying process in fluidized and vibro-fluidized beds. The following topics were investigated in this work: a) fluid dynamic studies in fluidized and vibrofluidized beds were carried out using particles of alumina and silica-gel as inerts. The effects of variables such as the frequency and vibration amplitude (which are combined in a dimensioless vibration number), height of the bed and particle diameters on the fluid dynamic behavior of both beds have been analyzed. Simultaneously, an analysis of the fluid dynamic behavior for these beds was carried out using measurements of standard desviations of the pressure drops in the beds as a function of the superficial gas velocity. The results show that in both beds the dimensioless vibration number has a strong influence on the fluid dynamic behavior of the bed of particles. Besides, the increase in the height of particles in the bed, as well as in the particle diameters affects significantly its characteristic curves; b) equilibrium isotherms for alumina and silica-gel particles were obtained experimentally using the static method. Some equations for equilibrium isotherms available in the literature were compared to experimental data and the best fitted model was obtained using a technique based on non-linear estimation of the parameters. The results show that the equation of Sabbah provided the best fitting for both particles of alumina and silica-gel; c) the drying kinetics for alumina and silica-gel were obtained from experimental data for the drying of a thin layer of particles in a fixed bed. The best model for the drying kinetics came from a semi-empirical equations presented in the literature, using a non-linear estimation of parameters technique. The results show that the equation from Mancini provided the best predictions for experimental data of alumina and silica-gel; d) heat an mass transfer coefficients in the fluidized and vibrofluidized beds were estimated using the methodology proposed by Kmiec (1975). In the range of variables investigated, the results show that the heat and mass transfer coefficients for the vibrofluidized beds have not increased significantly as compared to the values obtained in the fluidized beds; e) the moisture content and temperature profiles of the particles were estimated using the mathematical model proposed by Massarani and Silva Telles (1992) with the heat and mass transfer coefficients obtained experimentally. For the range of conditions investigated, the mathematical model has not provided good predictions for the moisture content profiles, but in the other hand, it provided reasonable good predictions for the temperature profiles of the particles.

With the technological evolution and the increasing utilization of the Internet, companies and governmental institutions have been looking for modern solution to replace and improve their legacy systems. These kind of solutions require high investments, being able to use the reengineering process in these cases. A maner to modify these systems is through reengineering of their interfaces, by wrapping of their logic. This technique preserves the native environment of system and its functionalities, reducing in time and cost the reengineering process. To support the migration of legacies systems in a general way, there is an Interface Reengineering Process (IRP), whose accomplish the wrapping of its functionalities and connect them with a new user Web interface. This Web interface connects itself with the identified components of the legacy system following the special resources that they offer. The IRP is summarized by the study of the interface and logic of the system. In this way, it possible to accomplish the system organization for the wrapping to be done, which is composed by the legacies functionalities covered by a new software layer. This new layer makes possible the communication with the new user interface, which has developed according to the usability criteria. The systems used as case studies were developed using Delphi environment, with or without object orientation characteristics. In this work only systems developed without object orientation characteristics are presented in details. With the use of the new process proposed here, the interface can be developed in any paradigm, while the legacy code remains as the original, simplyfing the system maintenance.

This dissertation presents the results obtained with the use of different methodologies for the evaluation of the quality of urban pedestrian spaces. The choice of the methodologies was based on a bibliographic review, and those methodologies that best suited the brazilian cities reality were selected. The methodologies were applied in a case study for the evaluation of a pedestrian environment in the city of São Luis, Maranhão. Although each methodology require the collection of a different set of data, the effort to gather all the necessary information was not very great. The analysis showed that the selected methodologies can be easily applied and that, even though they use different quality indicators, the results were virtually identical. It was verified that, according to the applied methodologies, the quality of the pedestrians environment is average, and the results really reflect the conditions of the study area.

This study aims to evaluate the functional capacity of old people or chronic degenerative disease (CDD) patients using sub-maximum tests. The sub-maximum tests, which use a step as ergometer, usually have two features that makes difficult its usage by the considered subjects (old people or CDD patients): the cadence is constant and the step height is not proportional to their physical condition. Thus, the intention is to develop and validates a test to functional capacity evaluation of 60 to 69 years old subjects, using a 15 centimeters step height as ergometer and self-paced. The self-paced step test (SPST) was compared to six-minute walk text (6MWT) in a sample (12 male; 35 female) from Itajaiaçu River region population. Reliability in both tests was evaluated; the SPST required time for cardiovascular, breath, and comfort alterations were compared to 6MWT alterations and it was established a performance correlation (functional capacity) of the subjects in both tests. Each test was performed two times for the subjects (test/re-test) and the second time data were used to comparison between tests. The cardiovascular parameters (heart rate HR and arterial blood pressure BP), the breath parameters (arterial oxygen saturation SpO2), and the comfort parameters (pain perception in the inferior members DOR and effort perception SSE), were measured and used in the statistical analysis that includes: F test, Student T test, Wilcoxon Test, all of them with significance level p ≤ 0.05; the Pearson s correlation was used in reliability and validation evaluation. The most important results were: between the two SPST and 6MWT measures were found a good correlation and no statistical difference was found in significance level p ≤ 0.05; comparing the second measures of the tests no statistical difference was found between BP and SpO2 averages. The HR had a different behavior between tests, with p=0.0436 in the 5th minute and p=0.0121 in 6th minute. DOR have show p=0.0018 in 4th minute and p=0.0007 in 6th, and the SSE had p=0.1638 in 4th minute and p=0.0003 in the 6th minute. The r values (correlation coefficient) were equal or bigger than 0.7 for HR, BP, SpO2 (5th and 6th minute) and for functional capacity (4th to 6th min). The results show that the evaluation tests are reliable and that SPST validation was found for the studied subjects. Besides, it is possible to conclude that in the 4th min test the SPST reached a similar effect to 6MWT.

The objective of this work was analyze the effects of aqueous extracts of Aristolochia esperanzae organs in the germination and early growth of lettuce and radish. All the prepared extracts obeyed the ratio of 100g of plant material + 300 mL of distilled water to produce an extract 100% concentrated. This extract was diluted with distilled water to produce final concentrations of 75, 50 and 25%. In the germination tests the extracts of leaf, stem, root, fruit and flower, with concentration of 100, 75, 50, 25% were evaluated. In the seedlings growth, extracts of leaf, stem and root were used in the concentration of 100 and 50%. In the germination tests, four replicates of 30 seeds were distributed in Petri dishes with two filter paper moistened with 5 mL of the extracts, dried during 12 hours and moistened again with 4,5 mL of distilled water. In the first test, the rate and germination percentage was evaluated. In the growth test, the seeds were previously germinated (2-4mm root length) and transferred to plastic boxes containing the filter paper or coconut fiber, moistened with the extracts. The aerial part height, root length, dry mass and the presence of abnormalities in the seedlings were evaluated. Both tests were maintained at constant temperature (27ºC). The obtained results showed that the leaf extracts affected strongly the germination percentage and all the extracts, in different concentrations, delayed the germination of lettuce and radish seeds. In the growth test could be verified that the stem and root extracts caused abnormalities in the seedlings. The seedlings grown in filter paper presented bigger growth inhibition in relation to seedlings from coconut fiber. The extract concentration was the main responsible for the incentive or inhibition caused on lettuce and radish seedlings growth.

This project represents the first efforts in Brazil in the proposition and establishment of reference concentration values for metals and metalloids in limnic and fluvial sediments. The selected study site is the Tietê River basin (São Paulo State, southeast region), a watershed which is under significative environmental impact and degradation since the onset of the Brazilian revolution at early-midd 50 s. In order to consolidate the analytical values 1,100 analyses were performed encompassing 95 sampling points in 29 municipalities, from the upper stream parts of the river down to its mouth at the Paraná River, covering an extension of approximate 800 km. Sediment samples were collected in small streams and rivers as closest as possile to their upper reaches, as well as in rivers and reservoirs in locations minimally affected by human contamination. Samples were initially sieved for separation of the particles <63 µm, dryed at 50°C, and extracted with a mixture of strong acid solution (HNO3, HF, HClO4 and HCl). Chemical analyses were performed by induced coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry for Cr, Ti, Zn and V, and via atomic absorption spectrometry using conventional flame for Co, Cu, Ni and Pb, graphite furnace for Cd and Ag, hydride generation for As and Se, and cold vapor for Hg. U and Th were analysed by molecular absorption spectrophotometry using the chromogenic reagent Arsenazo III. The reference concentrations determined by this study showed significant differences with respect to the assumed global geological reference for some elements; differences were also detected among the concentrations of the same element from different basin regions and are attributed to differences in regional geochemical characteristics. As a consequence of these lithological variations, four different sets of reference concentration values are proposed valid to the different regions of the studied basin. This study also presents application of different sediment quality classification models and potential ecological risk index for Bariri, Billings, Rasgão, Barra Bonita and Promissão reservoirs.

The main objective of this work is contribute to Goiânia city environmental planning, with special focus in fragile (sensitive) areas, in valley areas. We started with biophysical characterization of the area, identifying and delimitating, in the Urban Zone (ZU) and Expanded Urban Zone (ZEU), fragile (sensitive) areas (areas with medium and high Natural Erosion Potential PNE and/or areas related to the hidrological cycle - floodplans). We also identified federal and municipal (county) regulations, and the proposals of Goiânia Director Plans for valley areas. Then we evaluated their adequability, foccusing environmental conservation. Finally, based on actual diagnosis of land use in valley areas, Environmental Protected Zones I (ZPA-I) associated to hidrography and the fragile (sensitive) areas within these areas, we evaluated the applicability of laws and plans for valley areas during (along) the city development and grow. Evaluating Legal rules and planning guidelines, we identified that since 1960, permanent preservation areas with at minimum 50 meters from the river flood height, should receive land uses compatible with environmental conservation (recreational, cultural, environmental education, park etc). ZU e ZEU presented 40.73% of areas with medium and high PNE in valley areas, representing 59.69% of valley areas, and 22.01% of that are legally protected by ZPAs-I. The ZPas-I represent 14.62% of ZU and ZEU (49.22% of it are represented by areas of medium and high PNE) and have only 44.21% of natural vegetation which 10.71% are within properties. Properties areas already occuppy 26.62% of ZPAs-I. In valley areas only 34.81% are vegetated, and in valley areas legally protected by ZPAs-I, 47.46% have natural vegetation. In valleys´s fragile areas 31.66% are vegetated. When those areas are protected by ZPAs-I, vegetated areas increase to 40.71%. The floodplans (within valley and legally protected by ZPAs-I) are 56.54% covered by vegetation which 13.88% are within properties. The results evidenciated that valley areas are structurally and functionally fragile (sensitive) and municipal plans and legal regulations for these areas are adequated. However, regulations measurements for buffer zones (ZPAs-I) usually don´t cover all fragille areas (areas with medium and high PNE). Finnaly the study identified insufficient urban instruments (Director Plans and land use regulations) to efectivelly protect fragile areas during (along) the city development and grow. Even dough, fragile areas within valleys, legally protected by ZPAs-I, presented better environmental conservation conditions than the others fragile areas.
