This work is a theoretical effort that aims to give light to a debate about the formation and development of a paradigm into scientific knowledge. More specifically the proposal is to analyze some aspects about how the scientific institutions, understood as the rules, the organization and the structure, develop a new paradigm. To reach the objectives of this work, we will analyze the case of Agroecology, a self-titled new science with a new paradigm. In order to give an account of our case study, we have based the social studies of science from the writings of Thomas Kuhn and Pierre Bourdieu, given basis to the concepts of paradigm and social fields, that we use to analyze agroecological field, and the scientific field. The paper analyzes the science, based in social analyzes of science, and the formation of the agroecological field, trying to understand what are the assumptions that compose it as a new paradigm. With this in hand, the paper analyzes the adequacy of this field to the national scientific institutions, identifying how the teaching and research is composed at the existing rules for universities and research institutes, for which analyzes two cases, in undergraduate, and three postgraduate studies. From this analysis, the work concludes that this adequacy tends to provoke a predominance of some areas of knowledge towards others, reaching some of the assumptions of the paradigm in question.

In Brazil several works were carried out considering a general diversity of underground organisms from different regions. The Parque Nacional Cavernas do Peruaçu (PNCP), near the municipality of Itacarambi, Minas Gerais states, highlighted by works carried out with the troglobite catfish (exclusive of subterranean environment) Trichomycterus itacarambiensis Trajano and Pinna (1996), the end of the Olhos d’ Água cave. In addition to catfish, a cave is home to other populations of troglobites, such as the harvestmen Iandumoema uai Pinto-da-Rocha (1996) and the whip spider Charinus eleonorae Baptista and Giupponi (2003). The populations of the Eusarcus cavernicola Hara and Pinto-da-Rocha (2008) and Eusarcus aduncus Mello-Leitão (1942). Considering the populations of the mentioned arachnid species, we investigated from the marking and recapture method as size and population density. In addition, we analyzed the distribution of the troglóbios (I. uai and C. eleonorae) in relation to troglófilos (E. cavernicola and E. aduncus). Finally, from collections made in caves of the PNCP analyzes a diversity of the subterranean fauna in relation to Olhos d 'Água cave. Our results showed that the population of I. uai opium is numerically higher than others, with population values and higher densities. In addition, I. uai widely distributed in the various regions of the Olhos d 'Água cave, as well as C. eleonorae. In contrast, E. cavernicola and E. aduncus are restricted within the cavern with populations secreted relative to I. uai and C. eleonorae. Still, the Olhos d 'Água cave presents greater subterranean diversity with occurrence of troglophiles, troglóbites and relict specie.
Influência da variação geométrica dos alvéolos na capacidade resistente ao cisalhamento de lajes alveolares protendidas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-04-26) Maciel, Andrey Monteiro; Carvalho, Roberto Chust; https://lattes.cnpq.br/3633394168236221; https://lattes.cnpq.br/0147747084470199
This dissertation deals with the study of the influence of void geometry on the shear capacity of prestressed hollow core slabs. Based on analytical models for the tension shear capacity for uncracked sections, which were first proposed by YANG (1994) and latter modified by PAJARI (2005), a calculation procedure applying spreadsheets has being proposed for the prior definition of the void geometry, allowing an easy and quick way to evaluate the efficiency of the void shape to provide shear capacity. In addition, the influence of the variation of the angle of failure for the tension shear mechanism has been confronted against experimental results, giving indication that the fixed angle of 35º assumed by YANG (1994) is an adequate inclination to be considered in design. Calculation examples were presented in order to elucidate the main concepts discussed in this work. Comparisons were made considering the Brazilian normative model and the Yang-Pajari model for tension shear, from results obtained experimentally for prototypes whose rupture occurred by diagonal traction, and for the Brazilian standard model, safety results were not verified for slabs with oblong cores; as opposed to the YANG-PAJARI model applied to the same slabs, providing satisfactory results. In addition, the analytical model based on the Brazilian code of practice for structural concrete has been verified against experimental results for slabs with oblong cores, wherein some of the experimental results were found below the predicted values. However, as the number of experimental results was small, future experimental investigation is needed in order to verify the reliability of this analytical model.
A influência da lógica financeira no Prêmio Nacional da Qualidade
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-04-26) Fantti, Marina Borges Lima; Donadone, Julio César; https://lattes.cnpq.br/7643906508178259; https://lattes.cnpq.br/7915473790211765
The financialization process made the shareholder value ideology become the main guiding principle of corporate behavior, which resulted in several changes in the organizations, for instance, in the profile and way the managers operates and in the strategies and management practices adopted. In this context, the approaches of quality management, which focus on providing superior value to the customers, had to adapt to maintain its legitimacy towards the shareholder value ideology. In this sense, this thesis aims to explore the influence of the elements of the management based on the financial logic in the National Quality Award, which is one of the most contemporary approaches of the quality management. The relevance of this study, due to the fact that there is a few empirical studies that analyzed the influence of financial logic in quality management approaches and in Brazilian organizations. In order to reach the described objective, an exploratory study was carried out based on secondary data, from a documentary research. This included the analysis of the existence of elements of the management based on the financial logic in the versions of the Management Excellence Model used by the National Quality Award and in the 66 companies that won the award between 1992 to 2016. The results point out the influence of financial logic in the National Quality Award. The analysis of the versions of the Management Excellence Model demonstrated that concepts of financial logic were gradually being incorporated instead of practices related to the quality management. The analysis of the profile of the companies that won the National Quality Award showed that 36% of the companies were awarded post-privatizations, which ocourred in the 1990s, with the predominance of companies of eletric energy segment. The analysis of the executives showed that members of the top management of more than 20 winning companies have acted on the boards of the National Quality Foudantion contributing to the formulation of the award guidelines. In addition, it was verified the existence of board interlockings in the winning organizations, which favored the dissemination of the Management Excellence Model and the National Quality Award. Finally, the analysis of the profile of the presidents of the winning companies demonstrated the predominance of executives with professional background in financial areas and post-graduation in finance, which are valued by the finance conception of control. This thesis indicated the reconversion of the the National Quality Award towards adherence to the management discourse based on the financial logic due to the need to maintain its legitimacy.
