This research presents the topic of Natural Disasters and how it has been treated in Brazil and around the world, especially regarding the preparation stage for this confrontation and response, where there are possibilities for logistics support to better serve society affected for such an event. There is much to logistics is being developed in various sectors, from military to business in which they are applied his concepts and techniques to ensure the best balance between the costs of industrial operations, commercial and transportation and customer satisfaction. Currently, several studies have been developed to suit the limited resources to care for victims of disasters being named Humanitarian Logistics. With regard to disaster response operations, many researchers point out that one of the biggest difficulties for logistics activities is the identification of the necessary information, such as demand and its features, which makes the response time inadequate to meet the needs of affected population. This research proposes a starting point for the solution of this issue through the preparation, organization and provision of appropriate information. We performed a literature review about the topic of Natural Disasters and their particularities imply that their phases of pre-impact, impact and post impact, as well as the typical approach front of them related to the various actors responsible. Were exposed to the key concepts and techniques of logistics, humanitarian logistics and information processing. Various data were collected in the literature in order to get a clearer understanding of logistics activities and information that would be useful to decrease the response time, some of the cases studied. It reached a preliminary classification of the main information needs that impact on demand as well as in preparing to meet the same that led to the adaptation of an information flow that enables the provision of information at the initiation stage of the response to policy decision. The integration and provision of appropriate information to administrators Disaster directs better preparation of necessary logistics to respond to natural disasters by reducing the time for the initial collection of information, making the triggering of the response faster, thus improving the quality of care victims.

In recent years, international trade has intensified and liberalized, so that decreases in border costs have become increasingly relevant. Much of these costs are associated with the excessive number of documents required to export or import, the bad infrastructure of ports and airports, among others. It is in this sense that stands out the importance of trade facilitation, principally regarding logistical factors. The trade facilitation began to be discussed at the WTO in 1996, but only in 2004 began the negotiations about it. Several papers have been written for several countries in order to assess the impact of trade facilitation on trade flows. However, studies for the brazilian case are still few, especially those that take into account logistical variables. This study aimed to identify the effects of trade facilitation, especially concerning logistics, upon the pattern of trade that includes Brazil and its major trading partners witch belong to the most important economic blocs. The data extends from 2008 to 2011 and takes into account variables on the quality of transport infrastructure and customs procedure. Gravity models considering Brazil and other 47 counties, witch were responsible for about 78% of brazilian exports in 2011, were estimated. The results evidenced the largest impact of custom variables on trade flows between countries. When considering separate models for blocs of developed and developing countries, the results showed the importance of improvements in terms of documentation, time and cost for blocs of developing countries, as well as improvement regarding the time for blocs of developed countries. With regard to transport infrastructure, good quality of rail was important for both groups. Finally, it was concluded that, for blocs of developing countries, there is a dependency on reforms in trade partners, while in blocs of developed countries the reforms made by the countries themselves have greater impact on trade flows.

It is believed that the production function must support the competitive strategy, offering an important contribution to the competitiveness of an organization. The production strategy, whose content is determined by competitive priorities and the structural and infrastructural decision areas, plays a fundamental role in this process and should be aligned with competitive strategy. Moreover, recognition of the importance of innovation and technology has intensified to the point of becoming one of the most representative items in a company. Thus, based on the importance of manufacturing strategy and innovation in the organizational context, this study aimed to analyze the influence exercised by competitive priorities in the occurrence of innovations in small companies of metal mechanic sector in Sorocaba/SP. Since small businesses have certain specific characteristics, the study aimed to analyze how these specificities influence the practice of competitive priorities and the occurrence of innovation. To collect and analyze the data, it was used a qualitative approach and method of multicase study. Among the main results, it was found that the quality, flexibility, delivery and cost proved, in that order of importance, as generators of innovation practices in the surveyed companies. The quality and flexibility were closely related to product and process technological innovations. In the case of non-technological innovations, quality influenced the organizational and marketing innovations. Regarding the characteristics of small businesses, as facilitating factors for the practice of competitive priorities and the adoption of innovations, it was observed the specificities centered on the figure of the owner, on internal organization and the influence of the environment. As factors that worked as barriers are related to the specificities centered on the influence of the environment, mainly, and the specific focus on internal organizational of the company.

This study is the result of a field research theme of "social dynamics of recognition and the establishment of the university teacher habitus", made from semi-structured interviews that focused on family and school career / academic. The selected group of teachers was considered a department of excellence in science, from a public university in the state of São Paulo. Had we assume the formation of a habitus that is peculiar to these professionals and that related to the social construction of a professional identity and associated personnel rules and practices of academic-scientific. The objective was to analyze the existence of the relationship between the dynamics of recognition in the scientific field and the establishment of lasting provisions peculiar to their agents, which have shown to be associated with an ideal of performativity and success. In this perspective, from the use of qualitative research method and emphasis on discourse analysis as relevant social practice, we analyzed the relationships between values, choices and needs that guide individuals' sense of investment in scientific field; investment in their rules and their "game" peculiar.

As the number of elderly increases due to the aging population, the prevalence of chronic diseases increases significantly and, among these, dementia stands out being a risk factor for disability and functional loss, promoting a relationship of increased assistance personal care. The progressive deterioration in cognitive and functional evolution of dementia care implies that can be reversed in growing burden of direct family and formal caregivers. This project aims to capture the general perception of formal and informal caregiver forward to their daily lives, overload and its quality of life, and specifically identify the occupations / activities that kept the caregiver and left after taking care of the relationships as well as establish possible correlations with quality of life and care in overhead rates. To this end, we selected a sample of 22 caregivers of patients with dementia diagnostic process, treated at a health facility in the city of São Carlos. These elderly caregivers were contacted 6 and 16 formal caregivers. For data collection where the following instruments were applied: Characterization Questionnaire caregiver, Occupations List, Disability Assessment Scale for Dementia - DAD, and WHOQOL Abbreviated and Scale Zarit Burden Interview. For data analysis descriptive statistical analysis was performed for each variable. From the data collected can be proved in this study that there is an abandonment of daily activities by these carers in productive activities, leisure and self care, and changes in quality of life and levels of overhead, observing differences between formal and informal caregivers.

This dissertation is a compendium of four scientific papers. Each paper describes a stage of the study, with the final goal of evaluating the effectiveness of different materials to increase parents knowledge on abusive head trauma. The first paper describes a review of national and international literature, which aimed to give a current overview of abusive head trauma (AHT). According to the review, AHT can be defined as injury to the skull and intracranial contents to a child due to a sudden unintentional impact and/or a violent shaking. It occurs mainly with babies and children under 1 year of age and can result in serious consequences for children's development, including death. Although there are specific signs for this type of abuse, it can be mistaken for common child illnesses or accidental head trauma. Thus, it is essential that health professionals are trained for the correct diagnosis. One of the main factors associated with its occurrence is the baby crying, which highlights the need for intervention with parents in order to teach them about child development and safe strategies to deal with the baby. The second paper aimed to investigate the knowledge of newborn parents about some characteristics associated with AHT, such as the pattern of the infant crying in the first months of life, strategies to deal with the crying baby and the consequences of shaking a baby. The results indicated a lack of knowledge about the severity of shaking a baby, as well as a possible Brazilian belief that babies should not be left crying alone. In this sense, there is a need for these issues to be addressed in AHT prevention efforts. The third paper aimed to investigate the belief of Brazilian parents about corporal punishment to infants, and its possible relation with abusive head trauma. As opposed to the international literature, participants of this study did not consider shaking as an appropriate strategy to discipline the baby, agreeing more with this strategy when it aimed to sooth the baby. Furthermore, the results indicated that the caregivers evaluation about the strategy s harm potential seems to influence its adoption in discipline and soothing contexts. Finally, the last paper describes the evaluation of the effectiveness of three different informational materials to increase knowledge of Brazilian parents about this type of abuse. The materials consisted of a video on abusive head trauma, a pamphlet individually read on the AHT, and a video on child safety, unrelated to AHT and used for comparison purposes. The results suggest that reading the pamphlet could be a useful strategy in prevention programs, since it increased participants' knowledge about the severity of shaking a baby, as well as the likelihood of using strategies to distance themselves from the baby when stressed by the crying. Although less significant, the results of the group who watched the video on the AHT also indicated an increase in knowledge about the average number of daily hours of baby crying. It is hoped that the results found in this dissertation will guide future AHT preventive efforts in Brazil.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the properties of briquettes made from charcoal fines bonded with paraffin. To prepare them were used three fractions of fine coal (20, 35 and 60 mesh) and a binder, the paraffin. Initially, the coal was fragmented into small pieces, milled and sieved and the fines thus produced were mixed and homogenized to the binder in a proportion of 15, 25 and 35%. The mixtures were taken to the oven, so the paraffin is melted and then taken to a laboratory hydraulic pressure where was applied a compression force of 1250 Kgf.cm-2 for 30 seconds. According to the results, the briquettes produced had an increase in heating power in accordance with increase in the content of binder reaching 8588 kcal.Kg-1 in briquettes bound with 35% of paraffin. The ash content was not affected by the binder since the paraffin produces no ash in the process of combustion. It was also accomplished the combustion index test using a combustion device, where temperature vs. time graphs and mass vs. time graphs were generated in order to learn more of its properties in the combustion process. The mechanical strength was indeed an important feature provided by the binder paraffin to the briquettes reaching a diametrical compression strength of 0.785 MPa, significant value compared to the lack of resistance in the briquettes without the binder, and generating fine in percentage of 5.38%, showing high mechanical strength, essential property in the process of transportation and storage. The assay distribution in paraffin briquette showed that the binder migrated to the edges, characterizing it as a binder type film. The higher the content of paraffin binder, the lower the moisture content of the briquettes. The moisture absorption was minimal with average values of 5%, presenting the moisture protection provided by the binder

This paper try to analyze the characteristics of training the Goiano Southeast Libras interpreters, about deafness knowledge / Libras and check the limits and potentials observed by them for their work with deaf students from the elementary school and / or high school. In this perspective, this research is an exploratory study of the Libras interpreter s condition in southeastern state of Goiás, realized from documental analyze and mix questionnaire, which try to find answers to the following question: what is the training of Libras interpreters in Southeast Goiano and what are the limits and potentials observed by them for their role as interpreters from this training? This paper talk about eleven participants who acted in Basic Education in state schools. The analyzes obtained about what the performers say about their training show us a lot of important aspects that interfere with their professional activities, such as, absence of training covering concepts about deaf education and the role of Libras interpreter; learning based in isolated signals, in short courses whose focus is to teach the language to be user; professionals working in a school with deaf students as if they were experts in the language, and validation of them performance based on hours of study and a certification acquired (or not) after being approved in a test performed on an organ of the state government.

This paper seeks indications of how discourses of science are transmitted to society and even to find ideological confrontations between these two discursive forces. For this the chosen corpus was constituted from the texts of the Superinteressante magazine, and the main concepts used to support this work were the dialogical theory, memories of the future, the incompleteness and the valuation of aesthetic Bakhtin. We will also use Leon (1999), who shows us the ways and history of scientific discourse. Thus we have as hypotheses of how this discourse is constructed, how it is valued and how it also serves to entertain and inform. We also use old speeches about the apocalypse, as the Holy Bible, the Mayan prophecies and the prophecies of Nostradamus to turn the discourse of the magazine historical discourses, seeking thereby modeling common to apocalyptic discourse. Thus, it seeks to relate all these concepts with the main problem: how language mediates to change the perception of science and society.

One of the main challenges faced by Family Health Strategy to change the model of care is the lack of professionals trained to this role in SUS. The Permanent Health Education is a tool that can lead to qualification in health care and a new logic in the process of health work. In this context, the educational role of nurses is strengthened, and the identification Social Representations education that permeate their educational practices aiming changes or stays in health care become relevant. To Understand the Social Representation of Continuing Education of Health Family nurses; analyze how their educational action influence in work processes and identify strengths and weaknesses in the actions of these Nurses. Qualitative research through semi-structured interviews with nurses from the Family Health of small towns in the Heart Region of DRIII Araraquara - SP. After interviews transcription, the contents were analyzed by comparing the thematic category and lexical analysis by software ALCESTE by using the Permanent Health Education references, Work Process and Social Representations. Four categories were made: 1) Influence of Permanent Education in the work process where fragmentation and professional specialty remains the focus of educational activities; 2) The Centralization of nurses in the actions of Continuing Education in where this role have been seen in two ways, one group recognizes that this their role and others consider that it should be shared with the team; Different conceptions of Continuing Education where the education to update knowledge is hegemonic, showing some movements leading to a conception of education to change the work process, and 4) Difficulties in perfoming educational activities characterized by low motivation of the time and lack of time to carry out the activities. The Social Representation Continuing Education for this group is based in the notion of traditional education, although although it is possible identify some movements that approximate the logic of Permanent Health Education, which may lead to a transformation of the representation.

The rehabilitation of people with various disorders has been implemented with the technological advances of virtual reality when using the games immersion in therapeutic programs in clinics and hospitals. However, no studies to guide therapists in relation to levels of physical effort required by the games most often used in virtual reality based rehabilitation. The objective of this research was to evaluate the influence of the boxing game on the Nintendo Wii in heart rate response (HR) in healthy young adults seated and standing positions. We selected 28 college students, male, aged 18 to 30 years. A cardiac monitor captured the FC during periods of rest during the game and recovery under two conditions: in the seated position (S) and in the standing position (St). HR increased with running the game, both in S as St (S = 113.90 ± 18.63; St = 125.75 ± 22.4) compared with rest (S = 76.23 ± 9.68 , St = 83.29 ± 10.07) and recovery (S = 82.98 ± 12.33; St = 82.98 ± 12.33) (p = 0.001). During the game, the heart rate was higher in the St (125.75 ± 22.4) than in S (113.90 ± 18.63), considering p ≤ 0.05. The subjects achieved levels of physical exertion as moderate, playing standing or seated. It is concluded that the boxing game appears to be safe for the system heart healthy young adults. Alert up for this game as therapeutic indication only in young patients who may perform physical activity and moderate aerobic.

The implications of cleft lip and palate in a child's life go beyond the aesthetic and functional, psychosocial problems may lead not only to her but for the whole family. A satisfactory fitting process depends more on how the family will react and their attitudes, than the presence of the anomaly. The rehabilitation process is experienced by the child and family, and the performance of the Nursing Team happens with them during this journey. The nursing staff participates in training the family for the care, since your formation is also focused on the education of those who attend. This study aims to understand the family's experience across the care of children with cleft lip and palate. This is a clinical-qualitative research and to work with the data used the research narrative. Constitute subjects of the study families of children with cleft lip and palate with up to 3 years old. The data analysis allowed apprehend four themes. Accept and affirm the condition: the news of the presence of cleft lip and palate generates big impact and is a difficult time that the family requires mobilization and adaptation of feelings that result in action to welcome and accept the child. Treading the rehabilitation process: this process begins soon after birth of the child, stretching as its growth, it is long, gradual, exhausting, and suffered implies breaking the routine, trip to the specialist center, extra expenses, surgical procedures, diets, restrictions and cautions. Learn, experiment and adapt care: care of the child with cleft is built through constant experiment. Try positions for feeding, the bottles, the speed of feeding, the formula. In this movement the family adapts and customizes the care to meet the best possible way the needs of your child, and thus the dynamics of everyday life learns to care. Require Informational and Emotional Support: in their trajectory family suffers from lack of supporting information by health professionals, the public and media, feels lonely when they need to find answers for themselves. It is hoped that the discussion of this topic may contribute to understanding the experience of families across the care of children with cleft and enables meet their needs, identify demands and accompanying guidance for the improvement of care provided by health professionals to these families.

This study addresses the development of Higher Psychological Functions of children aged zero to three years, specifically regarding attention and memory, and its relationship with education in daycare centers. The research question was: What concepts of the Historical- Cultural Theory underlie the need to potentialize the development of Higher Psychological Functions regarding attention and memory in children aged zero to three years in daycare centers? The objective of the study is: to identify Historical-Cultural Theory concepts that can support teaching activities for children aged zero to three years for developing higher psychological functions regarding attention and memory. The research was founded on dialectical and historical materialism and historical-cultural methods. The study methodology was based on bibliographic research, considered important to classify the study subject that was dispersed in several bibliographies. The methodological procedures were based on bibliographic reading recognition; key information localization; choosing bibliographies closer to the research object; and the final reading to achieve the proposed objectives. The result analysis shows concepts that can support teaching activities for developing Higher Psychological Functions in children aged zero to three years, such as cultural development, the main activity, mediation and the zone of proximal development. The results confirm that the development of infants is not universal and does not solely depend on the biological basis of human development. Social relationships are crucial to human development. School education is fundamentally responsible for the success of learning processes and child development nowadays, therefore, such learning must be intentional and planned, taking into account the specificities of child development, and also provide safe environmental conditions and varied cultural and intellectual experiences to promote mental development of children aged zero to three years in order to stimulate them. Higher Psychological Functions regarding Attention and Memory do not develop fully in the first year of life, however, intentional learning is required for significant psychological development. Introducing learning activities at an early age are the basis for subsequent complex psychological developments.

This study investigates the role of new and recent CNPq agency as advisor and financier of new policies and practices of research in our country based on the analysis of notices published by that body in the period 2004-2011 and its relationship with economic policy identity adopted in Brazil since the 2000s. The aim of this study is to identify the factors that produced this paradigm shift in research funding from CNPq seeking to establish the possible mediations between the economic policy adopted in Brazil from the 1990s and the policy choices made in managements FHC (1995 -2002) and Lula (2003-2010) and identify the role that this agency complies with public policy agenda in the country's productive. The methodology used was the literature and documents, having as the main primary legislation with emphasis on the laws 11.196/05 (Lei do Bem) and 10.973/04 (Law of Technological Innovation), the creation of the Science Sector Funds and Technology (1999); books or memories of the four National Conferences on Science, Technology and Innovation (1985, 2002, 2005 and 2010), the Master Plan for Reforming the State, the guidelines of the Industrial, Technological and Foreign Trade (PITCE), published in 2003, the Productive Development Policy (PDP), 2008, the Plan of Action for Science, Technology and Innovation (2007-2010), the edicts research support from CNPq published between 2004-2011 (422 calls) and Institutional Management Reports CNPq period 2004-2011. We hypothesized that the policy adopted by CNPq notices from the year 2000 can be analyzed based on economic and political reforms that the world and Brazil are suffering from the 1990s, mediated by interim measures, laws and ordinances materialize the country's entry in this circuit financial valuation in order to make the country attractive from the standpoint of economic and legal foreign investment. The empirical indicated that from the 2000s, with a strong emphasis between the years 2003-2004, there is a radical change in the policy of public funding of research from CNPq, expressed by policy notices, which is characterized: by induction applied research and the development of technological research and innovation with strong potential for immediate application to the market; mediated by academic evaluation processes extremely hard, and short-prazistas as requiring the production of knowledge preset time at the time of contracting the projects strong hierarchy between areas of knowledge. The study indicated that the options were the economic policy of the country which have produced changes in the paradigm of public funding of research from CNPq. While Cardoso prioritized during the opening of the economy to the international market that demanded political and legal preparation for the attraction of foreign direct investment, seeking to show the country how great square stock exchange, ie, the option to turn the country into a platform for emerging financial valuation and the decline of productive investment in the country conditioned the extraction of real income of society and constraining our capacity for growth, investment, employment generation and income. Analyses of Brazilian economic policy in FHC and Lula indicate that there was a continuity and even its intensification. Driven by a new growth agenda of the country, given the international and political alliances with national business, the Lula government opted to maintain the agenda of orthodox economic management, but look for alternatives brought growth and expansion of productive investments long term. His political project initiated in 2003 was expressed in a more fully the implementation of a new industrial policy. Were these policy options that distinguish, in part, the government of his predecessor, especially in the educational field: expansion of the public university structure by physical expansion of IFES and the vacancies in the program MEETING, ProUni and UAB; regarding your collection practical economic policy, resumed the National Industrial Policy (PITCE and PDP) with a focus on innovation and cooperative relationship between state-university-market. This new place CNPq gave it strategic importance in the construction of a national pact between university-State market (financial capital), working in the training of human resources for promotion of various types and levels of scholarships, increasing grants for researchers in companies, continuous increase of its budget for scholarships postgraduate, publishing notices to fostering individual projects, groups or thematic networks of scientific and technological support, expansion and dissemination of new programs to assist these guidelines, all this combined a new form of financing that has to induce new practices for the development of research and knowledge production in universities with strong budgetary hierarchy between areas of knowledge.

The drug delivery systems (DDS) shows several advantages when compared with traditional release systems, such as allowing the employment of lower plasmatic concentrations of drug, having greater efficiency, and minimizing side effects. The improvement of drug delivery depends strictly on the choice of an adequate support allowing to effectively controlling the drug release. All systems use a physical or chemical barrier that control the speedy of release and ensure the desired doses. In this sense, the use of biopolymers and some inorganic hybrid materials as a solid support, such as layered doubles hydroxides (LDH), is of great interest, due to biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this study a series of distinct bionanocomposites were developed and their properties and potential to be used as drug delivery systems explored, creating complexes with high applicability. Gastroresistant and mucoadhesive chitosan-pectin beads for mesalazine release were synthesized in pure form or intercalated LDH compounds, aiming to simulate the in vivo conditions. Another bionanocomposite was also synthesized to be used as a drug carrier consisting of a blend of alginate polysaccharide and magnetic and graphite nanoparticles, in two different pharmaceutical forms: beads and films. This work evaluated the efficacy of these new matrices when the associate drug is previously immobilized on a LDH-based inorganic solid. The compositional and structural characterizations of all these bionanocomposites allowed to conclude that there was an intercalation of the drugs between the LDH layers were satisfactorily, suggesting a compatibility of the system. The physical properties of the beads and films, such as water uptake, encapsulation efficiency, control release, and mechanical properties, were improved when hybridized with the nanoparticles. These results indicate that the bionanocomposites synthesized are promising to further use in drug delivery systems and other substances, exhibiting high applicability in several areas, from biomedicine to agriculture, for example, in the control of fertilizer or herbicides release.

Cette étude a pour objet principal la contribution de l‟Initiation Scientifique (Iniciação Científica) pour la formation de l‟élève et les conséquences résultant des changements des activités de recherche qui ont engendré une nouvelle pratique pour le quotidien des professeurs et des étudiants de l‟université publique. L‟objectif général est donc d‟analyser cette pratique de l‟Initiation Scientifique dans le contexte de l‟éducation supérieur au Brésil. L‟objectif spécifique est d‟identifier les éléments capables d‟être considérés comme les conséquences de l‟internalisation et de la naturalisation des changements émanant de l‟expansion de l‟enseignement supérieur. Des professeurs et des étudiants de plusieurs cours d‟une université publique de l‟état du Paraná ont participé à cette étude à travers divers témoignages. Sachant que chacun de ces groupes possèdent une spécifité, nous avons cherché à exprimer leurs expectatives concernant le cours et la vie académique, leur forme d‟organisation pour les études et pour la production scientifique, ainsi que les conséquences de leurs choix pour d‟autres secteurs de la vie. De manière générale, l‟étude se justifie en raison de l‟importance du thème dans le contexte actuel de l‟expansion de l‟éducation supérieure au Brésil. Nous pouvons constater que la pratique universitaire concernant le Programme d‟Initiation Scientifique montre une nouvelle tendance pour la formation des étudiants de licence dont le but est de promouvoir l‟enrichissement du curriculum en ligne lattes en tant que forme d‟insertion ou de permanence pour des postes où le marché de travail est très concurrencé et particulièrement ceux appartenant au domaine de la vie académique. Cette tendance doit être comprise en tant que partie d‟un procès historique marqué par les contradictions, mais aussi par les permissions et adéquations aux politiques publiques qui dirigent l‟université publique brésilienne.

The recent social development policies are marked by great challenges and have strained the state structure to respond according to new arrangements, requiring, among many institutional experimentations, new forms of coordination between government sectors. In this context, the social development policies come from the crossing of economic development strategies with the strategies of social policies. This is the same movement that has led to the emergence of intersectoriality as a principle key of the recent social programs, especially the efforts aimed at combating poverty. Intersectoriality has been disseminated as a task to be shared federally. We study the Bolsa Família Program PBF as case, demonstrating the main features of the construction of it intersectoriality. As a object, it was decided that the center of the analysis would be the Federal Government, understanding that this assumes a fundamental role in the structure and forms of intersectoriality that characterize the PBF, and noted that his performance in this subject has been poorly studied by Brazilian literature (which, in general, to analyze from the local implementation of PBF). The research findings point to the presence of a favorable environment for intersectoral work at the federal level, leading to complex arrangements of articulation and coordination. Intersectoriality is here analyzed from the roles: 1) the unified registry, 2) the supplementary programs to PBF, 3) the management activities of the conditionalities of the program, 4) the collegiate agencies and multilateral coordination environments, 5) of the politicization of public administration and central delegation; 6) of bureaucracies and their networks; 7) the creation of intermediary agency intragovernmental coordination; 8) and the profile presidential and the coalitional presidentialism consequences on government activities.

Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) are insects considered as pests in many crops. Acyrthosiphon pisum, Aphis craccivora and Therioaphis trifolii f. maculata, occur often in alfalfa crops (Medicago sativa) in Brazil, causing direct and indirect damage to the plants. In this study designed to determine the seasonal fluctuation of aphids and their predators in alfalfa crop and its relationships with climatic variables by canonical correspondence analysis; to verify if there is in laboratory selectivity predators feeding, Cycloneda sanguinea, Harmonia axyrids and Hippodamia convergens for aphid A. pisum, A. craccivora and T. trifolli f. maculata to establish their predators in field culture, as well as to compare the various predators, as their efficiency in preying upon aphids using the serological technique. This technique is based on reactions such as antigen / antibody where the antibodies are obtained for the pest of interest and how antigens are used on many pest consumers. The gathering of aphids and their predators were conducted from August 2011 to July 2012 in experimental fields of alfalfa Crioula located at the Embrapa Unit, São Carlos SP. Acyrthosiphon pisum was the predominant aphid in the culture during the study period. Considering all the species, the highest population peak was observed in March/2012 and the lower in January/2012. According to canonical correspondence analysis, none of the environmental variables influenced significantly the seasonal fluctuation of aphids. Regarding the predators, 2.161 specimens were collected including insects and spiders. Among the insects the following families: Coccinellidae, Carabidae, Nabidae, Syrphidae, Dolichopodidae, Geocoridae, Reduviidae, Pentatomidae, Chrysopidae and Dermaptera. Among the spiders, Salticidae, Thomisidae; Lycosidae; Ctenidae; Nephilidae; Araneidae; xi Sparassidae; Theridiidae; Pholcidae; Trocantheriidae; Lymphidae and Sicariidae ocurred. The coccinellids were the most abundant insects and Harmonia axyridis was the most abundant species. It was also observed that the population of aphids and coccinellids follow the typical pattern of predator-prey relationship. The presence of natural enemies and the management of cutting the alfalfa influenced the dynamics of aphid populations. According to the results of the serological tests of all predators tested, 508 reacted with any of the antisera, resulting in 23,5% of positive results. Heterologous positive reactions were recorded with predators stored in a freezer at -2 °C for over a year showing that freezing does not affect the results of serological reactions. Syrphid and chrysopids were the predators with the highest percentage of positive serological reactions. The food preference tests in the laboratory showed that the coccinellids C. sanguinea, H. axyridis and H. convergens have a preference for A. craccivora when one compare to other species of aphids offered

In this work, were studied nanoparticles colloidal systems ZrO2 were using coarse grained models in order to observe the influence of the interaction potential between nanoparticles and the solvents in the system coloidal structure at chemical equilibrium. The molecular dynamics (MD) method was applied to propagate the system trajectories from an optimized initial structure. The interaction energy values allowed the evaluate of which systems reached the colloidal stability and which converged to aggregates with different morphologies just by self-organization mechanisms. The analysis based of the radial distribution function allowed us to relating the nanoparticles superficial faces with the morphologies of aggregates for the correlations peak positions. The radial pair distribution plots and the average of interaction energy determined the interaction potential effect of the solvent in the colloidal systems structure at equilibrium. The colloidal stability was favored when the interaction potential of nanoparticles was equivalent to the interaction potential of the solvent, i.e., almost attractive nanoparticles in almost attractive solvent and attractive nanoparticles in attractive solvents. In other hand, the variation of solvent s interaction potential, using almost attractive nanoparticles in attractive solvent and attractive nanoparticles in almost attractive solvent, leaded systems to form nanoparticles aggregates with different morphologies, depending on the interaction between nanoparticles. Almost attractive nanoparticles formed a nanobunch, whereas attractive nanoparticles formed a nanorod. Gibbs energy of the nanoparticles aggregation process in each system was calculated, which indicated concordance between the thermodynamic of the aggregation process or of colloidal stabilization and the equilibrium systems obtained by molecular dynamic.
