The Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant started operations in 2016 in the lower Xingu River basin. Dams in the Amazon have many social and environmental impacts and there is a prerspective of changes in river hydrological regimes due to climate change. In this contexto, benthic macroinvertebrates are important organisms in the functioning of freshwater ecosystems and are also widely used in water quality monitoring. In the present study, 11 sampling points were selected in different basin environments to evaluate the parameters of surface water and sediment, benthic community dynamics and application of a biological index (BMWP) to classify water quality during the initial phase of hydroelectric operation. Surface water and sediment analyses did not indicate impacts directly associated with damming, but the dynamics of benthic macroinvertebrates and BMWP indicated changes in the ecosystem. In the year 2016 a severe drought occurred and its combination with the modifications in the basin negatively affected the benthic community. The natural pulses at the water level along the hydrological cycle in the Xingu River are a force function that drives density and richness of benthic macroinvertebrates and their own characteristics in the composition of that community are associated with the discordant result of the BMWP. An alternative in monitoring would be the use of diversity indexes related to the natural dynamics of the community. The minimum flow in the river should be maintained and there should exist protection around water bodies throughout the basin.

The goal of this research was to understand the post/work of unhealthy retired sugarcane cutters that is the new sociability network, where they are embraced. We employed qualitative methods with direct and unsystematic observations, semi-structured script interviews, photodocumentation and field research. Cane cutters are mostly migrants; when they get sick, they often return to their hometown. Therefore, the empirical field of this research is a place of origin of these workers, Araçuaí city in Jequitinhonha Vale/MG, where exist an intense migratory flow to the sugarcane plantations of São Paulo state. Unhealthy cane cutters were interviewed, such as their relatives and professionals who work with these persons – medical doctors, social workers and psychologists of the Social Security services and Brazilian health system (SUS). Cutting cane is a physically and emotionally exhausting job that could cause disease. They are discharged by the agro-ethanol industry, because their bodies and minds cannot support the work anymore, since their labor capacity is affected by the disease symptoms. If, according to the Marxian interpretation, the work organizes sociability of the subjects, their capitalist expression - the sale of the labor force - establishes estranged relations, even more so in a situation of overexploitation. What, then, does the illness produce? The subject does not have the labor force to exchange, but remains immersed in estranged relations. In the post/work the estrangement intensifies, because the restrained relations remain, the workers are understood as a discarded commodity. Discarding generates a sense of shame shared among the subjects. The unhealthy sugarcane cutters seek in the State the means to ensure their reproduction. State institutions play the regulatory role in biopolitics, expressing “to make live and let die”. Discarded sugar cane cutters do not fit the labor norm, that is, they cannot execute the function that they were become docile: that of labor power. They establish a new sociability with social workers, physicians and psychologists from social security and welfare agencies. The State acts permit that one to believe that discarded persons of the cane are left to die - not only physical but social death – since their lives are not more managed and controlled. The family is impacted in this process, not only by the loss of a significant income in the budget, but also because it has repercussions on the results of deep estrangement. Women - wives and mothers - become in charge of caring for these sick men, dealing with the difficulties this role entails. In a patriarchal society, women are given care, which in the case of the wives and mothers of sugarcane cutters is intensified, inasmuch as they must also take care of this sick person. Men, on the other hand, are attributed to masculinity, virility and strength, naturalization that fractures with illness. Gender relations reorganize, but not with the inversion of the poles of power. The subjects do not passively experience any of these processes, producing different strategies of resistance, lines of escape to the imposed impositions. The cane cutter - expropriated migrant, overexploited labor force, split generic being - establishes new relationships of sociability in post/work by disease. In this way, we can affirm that capitalist sociability extends out of space-time of work. For the Sociology of Work, specifically those who study rural work, it is possible, from the present reflection, to broaden the field of studies. The end of the work relations constitutes, as seen in the case of the discarded cane cutters, another sociability related exactly to the space-time of work, inaugurates the post/work, theme not different, but belonging to the Sociology of Work.

The job-shop production scheduling activity is at the most detailed and complex level of a production planning and control system. The Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is an extension of the job-shop scheduling problem (JSP) and plays an important role in because of its combinatorial nature that allows an operation to be processed in more than one alternative machine of the set of available resources. Problems of job-shop programming belong to the class of NP-complete problems due to the difficulty in obtaining an optimal solution by traditional approaches. The metaheuristic Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has proved to be efficient in solving combinatorial optimization problems. The ACO consists of an algorithm inspired by the behavior of the ant colonies, which functions as a probabilistic method and constructs solutions through collective intelligence. In this way, it uses the experience gained during the search process adaptively. In this work an Ant System (AS) is presented along with the Shortest Processing Time (SPT) rule for multiobjective FJSP resolution. Traditionally, allocation and scheduling decisions are made separately in production management. Thus, the proposed approach employs the SPT rule for resource allocation and the AS algorithm for the sequencing of assigned operations, where each ant constructs a viable scheduling according to the constraints that apply to the problem. The objective of this research is to find optimal solutions for the FJSP, considering minimization of completion time, minimization of the most critical machine load and minimization of the total load of all machines as optimization criteria. The combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. However, the results of the comparative study with other approaches in instances known in the literature have shown that the proposed algorithm is feasible and effective for solving multiobjective FJSP, especially in large scale problems.

The present PhD research aims to investigate the reading of literary texts and the writing of texts as an active-responsive understanding of the texts read in the daily school life. The work was developed in a narrative and autobiographical approach, based on the theoretical contributions of the Bakhtin studies. In the professional narrative of the researcher the forms of seeing and conceiving the language during its 32 years of teaching are evident. The conceptions of language defined the way of being a student and teacher of Portuguese Language. By going through the three ways of conceiving language: Language is the expression of thought; Language is an instrument of communication and Language is a form or process of interaction and its methodological implications in the teaching / learning of Portuguese language, the researcher brings reflections on the teaching / learning of Portuguese Language in each mode. Only in the last decade, the researcher positions herself consciously when proposing a teaching / learning experience of reading a literary text: Romance genre for students of the ninth grade of Elementary School in a public school of a large municipality in the interior of the state of São Paulo with the intention of bringing a reflection on why work with literary texts in school everyday and what benefits can bring to improve the practice of reading literary texts and written as counterwords in the classroom, anchored in Bakhtinian interactionism. The experiment generated a significant number of documents from which the survey data was collected. These data were analyzed from the narrative methodology based on the Bakhtinian contributions, which places in the center the subject of language, the conditions of production of discourse, the social, the relations of meaning constructed between the interlocutors, dialogia, argumentation, exotopia and the importance of the presence of the textoliterary in the classroom.

This research is based in the analysis of anthropology of politcs and, through fieldr research, I was able to produce an ethnography of the formation of alliances around the choices of candidates for the 2016 municipal elections in a small municipality in the state of São Paulo. The data were obtained from the monitoring of one of the political groups formed in the municipality for those elections. Thus, this ethnography is a result of the analysis of the choices for candidates, based on a series of social attributes that legitimize the choice of some to the detriment of other pre-candidates. In addition to legal issues, I observed the importance of political inheritance and political capital, relations of kinship and friendship and belonging to certain political groups, the fact of being known and having a life course considered exemplary are also fundamental for those who aim the politics of votes. Therefore, I present what would be these attributes of the pre-candidatures to the executive and municipal legislature, and the close relation with the pre-candidatures of the executive and the state legislature.

The objective of this work is to investigate, in a comparative perspective, the documents that recognize sign languages in Brazil and Sweden and to analyze if their respective acknowledgments contributed to the educational process of the deaf in both countries. This is a documentary study, with content analysis as the main approach. In the midst of a broader discussion of linguistic rights and the right to use minority languages, advances in the education of deaf people - from a legal point of view - are beginning to be more explicit in the 1990s, marked by deaf and debates about the negative reflexes of the clinical-therapeutic model. The deaf community is then represented at the core of the political strategy of the multiculturalist movement, and studies on this aspect begin to strengthen in the international context, as well as discussions on the officialisation of sign languages. Sweden, the first country to give language status to a sign language, as well as the "Swedish model" of bilingual education, arouses great interest. The analysis lines were: type of recognition, analyzes of the texts of the Law Libras (nº 10.436 / 2002) and Law of the Swedish Language (SFS 2009: 600) and contributions of the documents for the education of the deaf. The methodology of comparative education studies showed important aspects. In Sweden, the right to acquire and use the Swedish language of signs as a mother tongue is provided for by law, and the country effectively contributes to the creation of real conditions for acquisition by the deaf community; linguistic policies govern the entire process of linguistic law and the right of language acquisition to the deaf. In Brazil, the right to purchase is not provided for by law and, thus, the paths to be covered by deaf children who seek acquisition of their language are not defined; the debates on Libras have always been closely linked to the debates on the rights of persons with disabilities, with the double categorization of the deaf being evident: persons with disabilities and members of minority groups. Therefore, the recognition of Libras did not guarantee the deaf people of Brazil the right to acquire sign language; and also did not promote the guarantee of a bilingual education. In Sweden, in view of the scenario studied, the law only reaffirmed the practice carried out over many years: sign language education throughout school age.

The health like right in Brazil, guided by equal terms have been affected by the current situation of the country due to its diversity and magnitude of both territorial and regional features. The Single Health System and some its policies (Basic Attention National Policy, Health Attention Systems, National Regulation Policy) seek for guaranteeing care integrality, promoting accessibility with continuous assistance and rational operation of the existing resources. The aim of this study was to analyze the performance of a municipal regulation system within the scope of the relations among Basic Attention, Specialist Assistence and Regulation Center, in order to provide a reflection about both the potential and the improvement opportunities in the services of scheduling medical appointments and exams. The conduct of this research was based on the qualitative approach assumption. The chosen city for the research development was Araraquara (SP). For data collection method, there were meetings to hold focus groups. The participants were the administrative agents, nurses and doctors of Basic Attention from a predetermined area, people responsible for scheduling appointments and the servants of Regulation Center, a total of 31 people. Data was examined from the point of view of the subject content analysis. The 31 participants were: 5 nurses, 14 doctors, 11 administrative agents and 1 licensed practical nurse. After the exhausting reading of the recorded and transcribed answers, it was possible to group them according to the contexts they referred to, in main topics and their categories. The main catalogued issues were: “The Health Care Attention System”, “The City Scheduling System”, “The use of protocols for Clinical Evaluation” and “The Permanent Education in health”. Through this data, it was possible to identify that the already established actions to review the scheduling system in such city have provided significant improvements in the employments’ work routine and also facilitated patients’ access to health. However, these mechanisms, have also brought some challenges that require confrontation by management and workers in order to solve communication problems, information systems, document records, employee improvement and qualification of their professionals.It is suggested to the municipality to face these challenges, adjustments in the use of protocols for clinical evaluation, provide systematized training for all categories of Basic Attention, have matrix support and use of only one information system.

The invasion of natural ecosystems by exotic species threats world biodiversity, causing competitive exclusion of native species and loss of ecological interactions, compromising ecosystem functions and services. Invasive species often resist to environmental variations and are capable to develop strategies that increase their competitive ability. Hedychium coronarium J. König (Zingiberaceae) is an herbaceous macrophyte native from Himalaya, considered an aggressive invader on Americas. We investigated its dominance mechanisms and the effects on associated terrestrial and aquatic communities. We evaluated 1) the effect of intraspecific competition (rhizomes density) on sprouting and growth of aerial and subterraneous parts of H. coronarium on different light conditions; 2) the interspecific competition, by estimating the seedling growth of a native tree species (Anadenanthera macrocarpa) on the presence/absence of the invader; 3) the phytotoxicity of the essential oil from H. coronarium rhizomes on the germination of native riparian tree species; and 4) the toxicity of aqueous extract of H. coronarium rhizomes on aquatic organisms (algae, macrophyte, cladoceran, insect and fish). H. coronarium showed similar performance and occupation capacity on opened and shaded environments, suggesting the existence of a compensation mechanism of resource allocation on different light and density conditions. The presence of H. coronarium harmed the growth of A. macrocarpa seedlings independently of the removal of aerial part of the invader. The secondary compounds of essential oil of H. coronarium rhizomes affected the germination of native riparian tree species. The aqueous extract was toxic for all tested aquatic organisms, indicating possible alterations on trophic chain dynamic of invaded aquatic ecosystems. Our results suggest that H. coronarium use different invasion strategies and impose multiple negative effects on native communities, highlighting their high invasion potential and capacity of promote ecosystem changes.

Plant biomass is a renewable resource with great potential for obtaining a variety of products with different applications. The production of biofuels from vegetable biomass is an alternative to increase ethanol supply and thus meet the growing demand in the world. The lignocellulosic material, which makes up the biomass, consists mainly of cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin and lignin, which are arranged in a complex way, reflecting in the difficulty of material degradation. Several groups of enzymes need to be employed so that the complex carbohydrates are converted into fermentable sugars, which can then be transformed into interest products. However, the production costs of these biocatalysts are an obstacle to economic viability of the plant biomass biochemical conversion path. One of the mechanisms to reduce costs is the improvement of producing strains, for example, by the deletion of repressor genes and overexpression of activators related to cellulase production. For the fungus Trichoderma reesei, many works have identified such regulators as the activators xyr1, ace2, ace3 and lae1 and cre1 and ace1 repressors. But, the fungus T. harzianum lacks studies of this category, considering that it is pointed out as a good producer of cellulolytic enzymes. In order to better understand the dynamics of the genes associated with them, initially the profiles of these enzyme production and of regulatory genes (xyr1, ace1, ace2, cre1 and lae1) and hydrolases encoders expression were evaluated, along the bioreactor cultivation using different carbon sources. Expression was found to be significantly higher on cellulosic substrates, which also provided higher levels of enzymatic activity. In addition, a hydrolysis assay suggested that enzyme complex produced by the fungus was specific to the substrate that induced it. Finally, a strategy was set up for the fungus genetic improvement by means of a point mutation in the β-glucosidase cel1a gene.

The thesis investigates Oakeshott's complete work and aims to analyze the nature of his conservative "disposition", taking into account his skeptical postulate and its theoretical roots, its contribution to social and political thought and its relation to the intellectual production of liberals and conservatives. The review of his arguments allows us to observe qualities and weaknesses in his approach to topics such as the epistemological foundations of knowledge, the attributes of individual consciousness, modes of conduct and civil society, the role of conversation in human fulfillment, the ideological fields and their patterns, the function and framework of the state, among others. These include concepts such as "conservative disposition", "reflexive consciousness", "conversation", "civil association", and "politics of faith". This appraisal evidences that Oakeshott transits on the edge of conservative and liberal thinking in a permanent tension. The comparison with liberal authors reveals a thinker that is constantly concerned with the preservation and use of the valuable habits of Western heritage. On the other hand, dialogue with conservatives highlights his emphasis on the role of individual freedom in the conduct of their own existence. Those are the sources of his originality and vulnerability.

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common complications of pregnancy, being considered a public health problem due to the high rates of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality and it remains a challenge to scientific community. High qualified and resolute care prenatal can contribute to reduce rates significantly and promote safe motherhood. The purpose of this work was elaborated and validated the knowledge, attitudes and practices of primary care physicians and nurses in relation to the care of women with GDM. It is a study of the elaboration and validation of a questionnaire for Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (CAP) studies. An instrument was used as a self-administered questionnaire containing open and closed questions. Participants who perform prenatal care in primary care were randomly chosen from the municipalities belonging to the Alta Mogiana and Alta Anhanguera colleges of the Regional Health Department VIII of the city of Franca / SP. Six phisicians and six nurses took part in the study. In the knowledge section, participants identified that there were questions with more than one possible answer about the diagnosis of diabetes in pregnancy. To cover the points of interest in this research, participants pointed out the need to add questions about prenatal care, growth assessment and fetal well-being. The indexes of correct answers in the Knowledge section and the indexes of positivity in the answers in the Attitudes and Practices sections were high, contributing to ensure that the questions of the CAP questionnaire were coherent with the object of this research. It was concluded that the validation process allowed the elaboration of a CAP questionnaire validated as an adequate instrument for future studies.

The present research discusses the relations between leadership and organizational culture in the Brazilian public sector. The objective of the study was evaluate the effect of leadership on the organizational culture of thirteen agencies of the Instituto Nacional do Seguro Social (INSS) of the Araraquara administrative region, located in the interior of the State of São Paulo. The work was carried out through a survey, namely, a data collection for the accomplishment of a correlational study. For this purpose, two models of survey questionnaires for quantitative analysis were used: the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire, developed by Bass and Avolio (1990), and the Competing Values Framework, produced by Cameron and Quinn (2006). The assertions of the questionnaires were adapted to the 5-point Likert scale. The questionnaires were applied to the organizational individuals of the agencies under study, obtaining a valid sample of 166 respondents, being 13 managers and 153 employees of the agencies teams surveyed. For the treatment of the data collected in the survey, descriptive and exploratory analyzes were carried out, using the partial least squares approach of the structural equation modeling method (HAIR; RINGLE; SARSTEDT, 2011). It was possible to validate the relationships identified between the leadership and organizational culture constructs in the INSS agencies of the Araraquara administrative region. The results demonstrate the predominance of the transformational leadership style (BURNS, 1978; BASS; AVOLIO, 1993) and the type of clan culture (CAMERON; QUINN, 2006), as well as the correlation between these two constructs as the one that most stood out among the several correlations present between leadership and organizational culture in the INSS agencies surveyed. Finally, it was possible to conclude that, in the perception of the respondents, leadership influences the culture of a public organization, through a positive correlation of high statistical significance (COHEN, 1992).

Several machine learning applications use classifiers as a way of quantifying the prevalence of positive class labels in a target dataset, a task named quantification. For instance, a naive way of determining what proportion of positive reviews about given product in the Facebook with no labeled reviews is to (i) train a classifier based on Google Shopping reviews to predict whether a user likes a product given its review, and then (ii) apply this classifier to Facebook posts about that product. Unfortunately, it is well known that such a two-step approach, named Classify and Count, fails because of data set shift, and thus several improvements have been recently proposed under an assumption named prior shift. However, these methods only explore the relationship between the covariates and the response via classifiers and none of them take advantage of the fact that one often has access to a few labeled samples in the target set. Moreover, the literature lacks in approaches that can handle a target population that varies with another covariate; for instance: How to accurately estimate how the proportion of new posts or new webpages in favor of a political candidate varies in time? We propose novel methods that fill these important gaps and compare them using both real and artificial datasets. Finally, we provide a theoretical analysis of the methods.

The Ecological-Economic Zoning (EEZ) formulation must, necessarily, be a participatory process, comprising the methodological adaptations according to the regional peculiarities. This research aimed to study, from the perspective of the participatory mapping, in three failed attempts of the Vale do Ribeira EEZ to formalize this legal instrument (1st period: from 1980 to 1998; 2nd period: from 1999 to 2005; 3rd period: from 2010 to 2014). The methodology was based on case study and content analysis, from four data sources: Geographic Database (GDB), Minutes of Meetings, Processed Documents and Interviews. Only documents and interventions directly related to the map were analyzed, discarding the conceptual and theoretical character ones. In the three periods, it was noted the existence of social participation strategies. In the first two periods, there was a predominance of participatory mapping based on cartographic (on paper), while in the third period, there was also participatory mapping with GIS Desktop. The minutes of 122 meetings and registrations of 191 geographical interventions were analyzed, most of them from the third period. A low processing of documents was observed, with a majority (65%) sent by the coordinating body of the EEZ. Regarding the records in the BDG, of the 1,495 existing polygons, 65.2% presented some description or justification of the framework. The approach of key actors with geotechnical tools is also important to evaluate the process as a whole, and not just the results. The evaluation showed that all forms of registration (meeting minutes, GDB and documentation) complement each other in the understanding of the process dynamics. Minutes of meetings are fundamental to record the conceptual discussions and details of the arguments that led to the decision making by the group, but they also make it difficult to retrieve the discussions in future meetings and to do the direct correlation with the map. On the other hand, the direct insertion in the attribute table during the discussion, proves to be effective both for the agility of the registry and for the subsequent rescue of the discussion. This study sought to demonstrate that there has been progress in the development of participatory techniques, but also to highlight the needs to improve the debate about these works’ methodologies and criteria. The approach of the stakeholders with geotechnology is also be seen as a positive result, since it brings empowerment and greater knowledge about the work. The use of GDB as a complementary method for the registration of participatory processes deserves to be improved, with the development of new techniques that allow the storage of the history of modifications made on the map.

In recent years, organocatalysed reactions have become an important field in asymmetric synthesis. Particularly, Michael addition reactions using various donors and acceptors have been explored to generate substrates that can be used as building blocks in other transformations. Chalcones, for example, are widely used as Michael acceptors not only because of their privileged reactivity but also due to their biological activities already reported. On the other hand, the α,α-dicyanoolefins proved to be a very versatile reagent, capable of acting as Michael acceptors as well as vinylogous nucleophiles in organocatalysed reactions. However, to date, the addition of α,α-dicyanoolefins to chalcones has not yet been explored. Considering the potential biological activity of the products, in this study, we report the use of a bifunctional catalyst derived from the alkaloid cinchona to perform the enantioselective addition of α,α-dicyanoolefins to chalcones. Based on preliminary results obtained in our research group, the Michael addition reaction was optimized by investigating time, acid additive, temperature, catalyst loading and solvent. Looking for more environmentally sustainable conditions, we have tested a series of greener solvents and the bio-derivative 2-MeTHF at 15 mol% of catalyst proved to be the best for this transformation. Having established the best reaction condition for this reaction, we investigated the scope and limitations of the developed protocol, where 17 new compounds were synthesized with yields in the range of 28-66% and 71-98% enantiomeric excesses. With the goal to increase the structural diversity, attempts to cyclize the Michael adducts were performed using different bases and acids.

This paper analyzes how the legal mechanisms for the education of people with disabilities in the National Constituent Assembly (ANC), 1987/1988, the historical moment that culminated in the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil promulgation, on October 5th 1988, as well as the participation of people with disabilities and entities involved in public hearings in the Subcommittee of Black people, Indigenous Populations, People with Disabilities and Minorities, as well as the discussion on education in the Subcommittee on Education, Culture and Sports. The research was subdivided into four chapters: the first chapter is composed of the knowledge production, based on the research carried out using the keywords "Social Movements", "National Constituent Assembly" and "People with Disabilities" at Digital Databank of Thesis and Dissertations - BDTD, of the Brazilian Institute of Information in Science and Technology - IBICT; the second chapter dealt with the events during the civil-military dictatorship (1964/1965), the Brazilian Democratic Movement the performance in opposition to the Arena and the called by the Constituent; chapter three covers the end of the civil-military dictatorship, as well as the historical process that culminated in the indirect election of Tancredo Neves to president and José Sarney as vice president; the fourth chapter dealt with the civil Society profile that participated in the discussions on people with disabilities, its organization to elaborate the proposals presented at a public hearing in the Subcommittee on Blacks, Indigenous Populations, Disabled People and Minorities, in addition to the other constituent phases and works, with a view to articles aimed at the people with disabilities education and philanthropic institutions. As a research result, it was pointed out that many claims of people with disabilities were contemplated in the Constitutional text. It was found that the participation of Deputy Nelson de Carvalho Seixas influenced the process of some subjects for people with disabilities. It was noted the parliamentarians lack of knowledge about the proposals of these people discussed during the ANC, and that education became the right of everyone, the State and the family duty, as well as guaranteeing specialized educational service, preferably in the regular network of education.

The Edicaran period (635-541 Ma) was characterized by great changes on the planet, among them, important modifications on the biosphere. In this time interval there was a diversification of unicellular Eucarya, including their macroscopic forms. A representative of the Ediacara-Cambrian boundary is the fossil Corumbella werneri, scyphozoa, firstly described in the pellets of the Tamengo Formation. Corumbella werneri might have been one of the first animals capable of synthetising hard-parts, in a context in which active predation was still being stablished. Due to this, the work here presented, had as objectives: (1) to verify mineralogical and chemical composition of the carapace of Corumbella; (2) to investigate palaeoecological aspects of this organism; (3) To narrow the evolutionary affinities; (4) to ascertain the existence of other taxa associated. For this, it was used non-destructive techniques, such as MicroCT and spectroscopy, allied with petrography. Different intensities of calcite and kerogen were verified on the carapace of Corumbella, indicating a possibility of an organo-mineralized skeleton. Data about the taxonomy of Corumbella revealed that it is a sister-group of conulariids. As for the other components of the paleobiota of Tamengo Formation, microfossil studies showed ovoids structures and acritarches. These ovoids structures have been found associated with Corumbella specimens, and have been interpreted as a result of the interaction between microbial mats and the substract. For the acantomorphic acritarches, here described for the first time in a new locality of Tamengo Formation. They were characterized, mostly, as Bavlinella sp e Leiosphaeridia spp.. In an important way, the identification of acritarches strengthens biostratigraphic studies, which might stablish biozones for the Late Ediacara, in this unit. Therefore, this work presents new data which contribute both for the general knowledge about paleoecology and taxonomy, and generates new insights and questions that might be answered in future studies.

The present work presents a comparative study between different steel structures on shallow foundations (single footing) and deep foundation (piles) with the purpose of identify the effects of the consideration of the soil-structure interaction (SSI) on the structural analysis. The SSI consideration is a refinement of the structural analysis, currently allowed through the evolution of the computer science and where the deformability of the soil in the structural model is taken into account. In the literature are found several studies on the effects of SSI in the structural analysis regarding the structures of reinforced concrete, however for steel structures there is a need to deepen the studies. In this work 5 steel structures and their respective shallow and deep foundations were designed, where the number of floors was varied (4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 floors), and consequently the types of bracing. Initially the structures were analyzed considering the rigid support, then they were analyzed considering the deformability of the soil and the obtained results were compared to each other. For the SSI consideration, the Winkler Hypothesis was used, through the coefficients of reactions (vertical and horizontals). An application was developed in order to streamline the process of obtaining coefficients. Were analyzed the results of support reactions and bending moments at the base of the columns, global stability coefficients B2, lateral displacements and soil displacement. The results show that the axial compression forces, bending moments and soil displacements were not significant, possibly due to the lightness of the steel structures, since the lateral displacements show major changes due to the withdrawal of the rotation restriction of the support and consideration of the real rotation stiffness of the column-footing connection, the coefficients of global stability also suffered significant variations, where there were changes in the classification of the steel structure from small to medium displacement, which would imply different considerations in the structural analysis. The work carried out intends to initiate the studies of the SSI consideration in the analysis of the steel structures, thus improving the degree of refinement of the structural analysis.

The goal of this paper is to evaluate the implications of electoral justice activism in political-party competition by creating new law in this current republic. That is, although it is not within its competence, the TSE has been carrying out these functions, through new rules that, in turn, have implications both in the system of political representation, and in the relation of horizontal accountability and between the Powers of the Republic. We start from the premise that the model of electoral governance adopted in Brazil favors judicial activism through resolutions issued by the Superior Electoral Court, since such an independent and specialized model excludes political parties from managing the electoral process, making the production of consensus of political party competition is left to the TSE. Resolutions will be analyzed according to their origin, scope and political consequence in order to assess whether the Court has acted as a "legislative power" or have taken decisions of mere interpretive character in the light of the Federal Constitution. The hypothesis is that judicial activism of the Higher Electoral Court has been used as an instrument of horizontal accountability by the Judiciary, that is, control of the electoral and legislative action of the Executive and Legislative Branch, atypically by means of the creation of law in addition to its constitutional competence to regulate electoral matters.

The evaluation is part of any teaching and learning process. It allows the educator to follow the evolution of the respective learner, establishing parameters that allow to identify the areas in which the same needs more stimulation. In view of the difficulty of finding tools for the evaluation of motor components for sports initiation for people and children with physical disabilities. This study presents an evaluation protocol based on the compilation, adaptation and creation of tests involving motor components present in the sports initiation process represented by the fundamentals and behaviors of sports modalities in wheelchairs. The aim of this study was to develop and validate the Wheelchair Sportive Initiation Protocol (WSIP). This protocol aim to evaluating the motor components that influence the wheelchair sports initiation process. And more specifically to contextualize the process of elaboration and construction of the WSIP; To analyze the contents of the WSIP according to the perspective of expert judges (content validation); To verify the adequacy and applicability of the WSIP. The study involving a qualitative and quantitative research approach. It is characterized by descriptive and cross-sectional study. The research was divided in three studies: I) Development of the WSIP; II) Content Validation; III) Application Study. The second study participants were specialist teachers in Adapted Physical Education or Special Education. The third study participants were children of both sexes with physical disabilities. For this study the age was between 6 and 13 years. The data analysis was used the statistical descriptive analysis. After the study it was possible to develop and content validate the WSIP as well as identify potential weaknesses and problems through the applications as a way to solve them. The intention was allows the educator to follow the evolution of the student establishing parameters that make it possible to identify the areas in which needs more stimulation for influencing behaviors of wheelchair sports initiation.
