The aim of this work is to present two methodologies based on the theoretical and computational analysis of continuous time stochastic processes inspired by biological systems, whose dynamics are influenced by the stochastic nature of their constituent entities. In the first part, we studied a particle system called the frog model (MS), in which there are two types of particles: the inactive and the active, so that each active particle runs a random walk, running through a finite graph $ \G $. Among the quantities of interest we have the proportions of each possible state over time and the final proportion of vertices visited or not visited by active particles. In this part of the thesis, we look for information about this proportion for different finite graphs. The effectiveness of the modeling techniques were analyzed using the following three approaches: Density-dependent Markov chains method (CMDD), approaching the mean field approaches (ACM) and computer simulations (SC). In the first two theoretical cases, their systems of equations were also obtained at a deterministic limit. These approaches were evaluated for the complete graphs $ \mathcal{K}_n $, complete bipartites graphs $ \mathcal{K}_{n_1, n_2} $, and for the cyclic graphs $ C_{n, c} $. The comparative results suggest a relationship between the density of the graph and the performance of the approaches in the MS and in this case, indicate that the three approaches are suitable for the M.S. for densely connected graphs. For cases considered sparse, the computational approach SC was presented as the most indicated. In the Part \ref{part: EDE_pred_presa}, a model based on stochastic differential equations is applied, using an ecological system consisting of a predator specialized in hunting a type of prey, only in its adult stage. Parallel to this, we assume that the predator's mortality rate is affected by a randomness of the environment. We discuss the influence of this premise on the dynamic behavior of the model through a theoretical and computational analysis and show that the stochastic differential equations provide a more adequate model for this system.

The shading caused by the built volumetry and the verticalization of buildings in an urban area, can affect the levels of human comfort. The organization of elements built to control comfort levels is a design strategy for urban space, and should be considered by the actors involved in construction, such as architects, engineers, electricians, entrepreneurs and unique users, who can change with their performance or performance . energy of the building. The surrounding elements are built, they must also be used by the designers, making the best use of natural lighting and ventilation and shading. The aim of this study is to assess the level of energy efficiency of an isolated housing unit subject to avocado shading by different urban density scenarios. The envelope protected from the interior of the building, therefore, the more exposed to the interior of the building, the greater the thermal exchange allowed between the interior and the exterior. The quality of the construction of the Envelope and its materials can increase thermal levels, causing greater heat gains in climates, higher temperatures and environmental damage, affecting the levels of environmental comfort. The method was based on the evaluation of the microclimate behavior of the Vila Harmonia resource in Araraquara SP, in the elaboration of an urban occupation scenario and in the application of the certification process certified by the Technical Quality Regulation - RTQ-C, to determine an economic method of a hypothetical housing unit, according to its classification in efficiency levels and the possible impacts of shading on its energy performance. The results showed that the environmental changes caused by possible transformations of the urban space in this case study were positive and contributed to reaching the “A” level of energy efficiency. As vertical buildings in the surroundings, they act as a great breeze, shading the roof, walls and openings. Urban environment developers can use the Methodology for Neighborhood Impact Study as a tool for new projects, thus inserting a shadow projection into horizontal or vertical housing units, using a better economic way of undertaking, and mitigating negative impacts.

In this work, we have studied the six-vertex model with domain wall and reflecting end boundary conditions, focusing mainly on the influence of boundary conditions on the thermodynamic limit. In order to find a complete analytical description for the so-called arctic curves, we have investigated three types of boundary correlations. These correlations were later used in two different methods designed to find the curves.

Introduction: Intellectual Disability (ID) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are often concomitant childhood developmental disorders, which impact on the dynamic and the family quality of life. Objectives: This research assessed the impact of mild ID associated with mild ASD in the family quality of life (FQoL). Methods: This is cross-sectional and descriptive research that analyzed 69 families with children with mild ID and ASD, confirmed by WISC-IV and CARS, respectively, ranging from 6 to 16 years old (9.5±2.6). Data were collected by conducting face-to-face questionnaires including sociodemographic and clinical information, the functional Barthel and Lawton & Brody indexes and the Beach Center FQoL Scale. For statistical analysis, parametric tests were used (t test, ANOVA, Pearson and Spearman linear correlations, and linear regression), considering that the dependent variable (FQoL) showed a normal distribution. A significance level of 5% was adopted. Results: The people with ID and ASD had an average score of 88.19±11.53 in the Barthel index, indicating moderate dependence on basic activities of daily living; and had an average score of 2.13±0.89 in the Lawton & Brody index, indicating severe dependence in the instrumental activities of daily living. The total FQoL average score (3.561±0.337) was lower than the scores of the “family interaction” (3.908±0.420; p<0.001), “parenting” (3.785±0.348; p<0.001) and “disability-related support” (3.975±0.161; p<0,001) domains, and higher than the scores of the “physical/material well-being” (3.194±0.642; p<0.001) and “emotional well-being” (2.750±0.620; p<0.001) domains. The multiple correlation showed that the parents’ marital condition, monthly family income, family religious practice and effective communication skills among the individual with ID and ASD were predictors of the FQoL (R2=0.407; p<0.001). Conclusions: The FQoL was negatively impacted by emotional well-being and physical and material conditions. We suggest adopting measures to improve these two dimensions of FQoL and reducing family burden in the care of children with ID and ASD. The FQoL also may be improved through actions that encourage effective communication of children with ID and ASD. These results may contribute for building a full support services care for patients with ID and ASD, and their families, in the Brazilian Unified Health System.

In this study, the influence of small cerium additions on the microstructure and oxidation behavior of Fe-Mn-Si-Cr-Ni shape memory stainless steels (SMSSs) was investigated. The results show that the Ce addition in the alloy promotes a decrease in grain size and the formation of both Ce-containing oxide inclusions as well as secondary phase particles. The fraction of thermal martensite-ε decreases with increasing Ce content in the alloy. On the other hand, the MI temperature increases with the Ce content to values above the room temperature. The shape memory effect (SME) enhances with Ce additions in the alloy of 0.18 and 0.42 wt.%. However, the Ce addition of 0.96 wt.% degrades SME. The oxidation resistance of the tested alloy increases significantly with increasing Ce content. Nevertheless, the Ce addition of 0.96 wt.% decreases relatively to the oxidation resistance. The restrict parabolic law is only observed for alloys containing 0.18 and 0.42 wt.% of Ce. The oxide layer formed after 120 h of oxidation is composed of Mn oxides, promoting the depletion of this element below the oxide and phase transformation from austenite to ferrite. The obtained results show that the Ce addition of 0.18 and 0.42 wt.% in the alloy decreases the MnS inclusions leading to the formation of a more compact oxide layer and an increase on the resistance to oxidation. However, the Ce addition of 0.96 wt.% increases the amount of Ce-containing oxide inclusions that accelerate the Mn diffusion toward the oxide layer, leading to the formation of a less protective oxide layer.

Biomass is a renewable resource that is increasingly being used as an energy source. This dissertation aimed to study the economic viability of using biomass for power generation. In Chapter 1, the contributions of renewable energy to sustainable energy production were studied. In addition, the types of solid biomass were addressed and what are the main parameters used to make their energy characterization. In Chapter 2, was studied the biomass market in the State of São Paulo and also the energy properties of the biomass analyzed: sugarcane bagasse, briquette, sawdust, firewood and eucalyptus forest, pine chips, charcoal and rice husks. In Chapter 3, an economical-energetic analysis was made on the following biomass destined for burning in the Sorocaba Metropolitan Region (RMS): briquette, sawdust, chips, firewood and eucalyptus forest and rice husk. In this chapter, the cost of energy, logistics, and price were analyzed. Finally, Chapter 4 gives a general conclusion of the work and also discusses the limitations and recommendations for future work. From the analysis of the results obtained in chapter 2, it was seen that there are more suppliers of firewood, wood chips and eucalyptus forest and the biggest demand for these biomasses are the sectors of food and beverages, furniture, red ceramics and paper and cellulose in the State of São Paulo. In relation to supply, the materials that have the highest production in this state are sugarcane bagasse, the eucalyptus forest and firewood and the pine forest. In the energy analysis, it was found that charcoal, wood, briquette, wood chips and eucalyptus wood and wood chips are more suitable for burning. In chapter 3, it was found that the biomasses that showed technical and economic feasibility to be used in the RMS were the chip and the eucalyptus log for several distance radii.

The literature indicates a strong relationship between musculoskeletal losses and the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), and it is also unclear whether DM2 affects the passive properties of the musculoskeletal system, increasing the muscle stiffness and impairing the function of these individuals. Objective: To analyze whether concentric and isometric torques can distinguish between individuals with DM2 and peripheral diabetic neuropathy (DPN) from individuals without DM2 with the same age and anthropometric characteristics, and also to analyze the passive torque and passive stiffness in DM2 individuals, with and without NDP at the knee and ankle flexion and extension compared to individuals without DM. Methods: Of the 88 participants, 29 were controls, 59 with DM2 (23 with and 36 without DPN). Glycemic control was determined by HbA1C and DPN by the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI). Concentric and isometric torque during knee and ankle flexion and extension were assessed by isokinetic dynamometry and torque suitability by principal component analysis (PCA). The identified variables were further used in a cluster analysis (k-means). Stepwise regression was applied to investigate factors associated with HbA1c and MNSI scores. For passive torque analyses, three groups of men (n=49) of similar age were studied, 17 with DM2 without DPN, 15 with DM2 and DPN, and 17 control subjects without DM2. Knee flexion and extension passive torque as well as ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion were assessed on an isokinetic dynamometer, followed by passive torque and passive stiffness calculation. The absence of muscular activity during the tests was determined by electromyography (EMG). Results: Concentric knee flexion and extension and isometric ankle extension torques characterized 88.59% of the individuals, forming Cluster 1 (n=29 controls) and Cluster 2 (n=59 DM2). HbA1c was associated with lower torque and higher IL-6, and MNSI score with lower torque and higher TNF-α and IL-6. Subjects with DM2 and DPN exhibited greater knee extension passive stiffness (p<0.01) as well as increased passive torque and stiffness during dorsiflexion and plantar flexion (p<0.04) at 5o /s when compared to controls and those with DM2 without DPN. Conclusion: Concentric knee and isometric ankle torques discriminated between subjects with and without DM2. However, knee and ankle torque reductions associated with DPN, poor glycemic control, and subclinical inflammation were not sufficiently significant to differentiate between DM2 individuals with and without DPN. Individuals with DM2 and DPN present higher knee and ankle stiffness and passive torque in comparison to those with DM2 without DPN and the controls. The mechanical impairments in ankle viscoelastic structures were most evident and more easily assessed at low speeds.

In the development of new businesses, fundraising is one of the most important factors, as only shareholder equity, normally, is not sufficient to fund its expansion. However, traditional sources of financing - such as banks - require collateral in return for the loans, which often cannot be provided by startups. Venture capitalists and private equities become real options for some companies that have a return on investment. Crowdfunding is a form of online fundraising, where the entrepreneur asks for an open call on the internet, and the crowd can contribute or invest in the project or companies - usually of low value - that, when together, make the business viable. There are four types of crowdfunding currently classified according to the return offered to the investor: donation, rewards, loan and investment. Equity crowdfunding, regulated by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) in 2017, is a form in which the entrepreneur offers companies shares in return for the investments received, thus making it possible for the development of new businesses. Thus, the current research analyzed the profile of companies that are using equity crowdfunding to raise funds in order to answer the following question: How has investment crowdfunding been impacting the development of new companies? This is a qualitative and quantitative investigation in which the content analysis method was applied. Results indicate that investment crowdfunding has, in fact, become a new source of capital for startups, since the average age of the analyzed companies is three years, and the most common segment is service, especially those companies that rely on the internet (websites and applications). The total amount of money raised from 2017 to 2018 was BRL 22,602,340 in 30 different campaigns (29 companies) with the participation of 2,345 investors. By comparing these results are compared with the volumes contributed by venture capital investors and angel investors, we can see that investment crowdfunding is still in its infancy. Nonetheless, the prospects for developing this market are promising.

In this work the regression model to k-Modified family distributions is proposed. It is understood as modification, the inclusion of a parameter in the probability mass function of the traditional discrete distributions, which is able to model inflation or deflation of the observation k in the dataset. The modification in relation to the original distribution becomes necessary when, in many practical situations, a specific observation k occurrs in the dataset with higher or lower frequency than what is expected by considering a specific discrete distribution. In the context of regression models, discrete distributions with probability mass function that can be written through their means will be considered.

In this work, we will do a study on triangles, their theorems, elements and constructions focused on the teaching of geometry since the early years of elementary school, with the objective of being a support tool for the teacher trained in pedagogy in addition to the specialist teacher in Mathematics. In the first chapter, we will give some definitions and results that we will use throughout the work. In the second chapter we will demonstrate some results and theorems that use triangles or show interesting features in them. In the third chapter, we will make geometric constructions with ruler and compass, describing each one of them, and justifying, when necessary, what we have built. In the fourth chapter, a pedagogical work carried out in a school will be presented, with geometric constructions in elementary school in a 5th grade classroom. Finally, in the fifth chapter we will make some observations and justify the work with a small study of Geometry in the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) in Elementary School.

We understand that the participation of teachers in a collaborative group can promote reflection on their difficulties and study of approaches, perspectives on the teaching of Science, Technology, Society and Environment (STSE), Scientific Literacy, experiments in the classroom, as well as developing an investigative attitude and the sharing of successful practices, supporting the coping with the difficulties arising from the teaching action. This research is based on this collaborative group that consists of six teachers from the municipal networks of cities in the region of Sorocaba / SP, all with training in Pedagogy. The objective of the researchers with the group is to face the difficulties for the implementation of Scientific Literacy (AC) in the initial years. The following instruments were developed for the research and applied on a quarterly basis: CA indicators; didactic models; distorted views of science and training needs, which aimed to identify the evolution of teachers' conceptions during participation in the collaborative group. If, on the one hand, it could be said that, initially, CA was a common objective of the group, it is now possible to say that teachers feel more prepared for the implementation of CA in their classes, as they feel supported by each other.

The analysis of count data takes an important place in applied statistics, since many real problems are expressed in terms of counts. Frequently, count data sets have discrepancies in the frequency of the zero observation, which may be high or low, and in these cases the set is referred as zero-inflated or zero-deflated, respectively. Besides, there are situations where the zero observation does not occur in the data set, and often zero-truncated models are inadequately considered, since there is a positive probability (and not a null one) for such event, although it has not occurred. The main aim of this dissertation is to present the procedure for parameter estimation of the zero-modified distributions in situations where the frequency of zero observation in the data set is zero and the occurrence probability of this same value is positive (zero-deflated). The proposed methodology considers the estimation of missing zeros in the data set consisting only of positive observations, such that the increased data set (with the estimated zeros included) can be explained by a traditional distribution. Moments and maximum likelihood methods are considered for the estimation procedure using the estimation-maximization algorithm. Simulation and artificial data studies are used to evaluate the properties of the estimators and estimates obtained. Real data sets with different cases of zero-modification are also analyzed.

The enrollment of students with disabilities in ordinary schools has increased steadily in recent years. From the perspective of inclusive education, school physical education has sought to ensure opportunities for effective participation for students with disabilities, however, the physical education teacher still faces many challenges. Among the various difficulties faced by this professional, the lack of support services for inclusion in his area stands out. As a consequence, most students with disabilities are attending classes, but are not effectively participating in activities related to this curricular component. Then there is an interest in investigating the co-teaching as a possibility of support service for the Physical Education teacher. Thus, the general objective of the study focuses on analyzing the possibilities and limitations of the co-teaching as a support service to promote the inclusion of students with disabilities in the context of school Physical Education, from a collaborative perspective. Specifically, it is intended: to describe and analyze the forms of intervention with the protagonist agents (Physical Education Teacher, student with disabilities and their peers) involved in this process; to identify the different types of support provided by the collaborating teacher, a specialist in Special Education (researcher) in school Physical Education classes; and to evaluate co-teaching based intervention from the perspective of Physical Education teachers. This is a study with a qualitative approach, characterized as collaborative research. Data collection was carried out in two municipal schools in a small city in the interior of the state of São Paulo, selected for convenience criteria. The participants were three Physical Education teachers, their respective classes and a collaborating teacher specialized in school Physical Education. The role of collaborating teacher was played by the researcher, a specialist in Physical Education at School and Special Education. As instruments of data collection, semi-structured interviews and systematic observation were used. The treatment of the data was based on thematic analysis and the results were presented in three parts: step I describes the intervention with each of the participants (case 1, case 2 and case 3), highlighting the various phases of collaborative action (communication, co-planning, codocence, co-evaluation); stage II addresses the support modalities of the co-teaching in Physical Education classes; stage III covers the co-teaching from the perspective of the participating teachers, according to the following thematic categories: 1. inclusion in Physical Education classes; 2. Interpersonal relationships, a) teacher x student with disabilities, b) student with disabilities x class; 3. collaboration / co-teaching. It is concluded that the co-teaching, as a teaching model and support service, provided different supports favorable to the inclusion process of students with disabilities; it was possible to apply the co-teaching models found in the literature, verifying the effectiveness of this collaborative intervention in the context of school Physical Education.

We start from the consideration of the school playground, as space and time inserted in the school curriculum that allows the insertion in the playful cultures and languages of contemporary childhoods. We understand that children need to be heard and participate in their learning processes at school. Therefore, we carried out the research “with” the children, aiming to identify, describe and understand how the children's participation and learning takes place in the playful experiences in the the school playground time, of the elementary school. For this, we also propose: identifying what children play in the schoolyard; to explain how they use the the school playground time; map the spaces they explore there and present the interactions between children and between them and adults. Qualitative in nature, the research included a bibliographic survey and insertion in the field, in the school playground time. As instruments, we highlight the use of drawings and field diaries: participant observation and semi-structured interviews, conducted with fourteen girls. In the results, we identified how much children enjoy the school playground, but disapprove of the little time available to play. The girls point out that they learn in the playful dynamics, revealing creativity to adapt to the various conditions proposed and interact with their friends, getting closer by sharing snacks, games and toys. In addition to showing a lot of affectivity in interpersonal relationships, the girls still share projections for improve the school playground time aiming to enrich this school space. In this way, we put these learnings and children's participation on the scene, inviting the sensitization of new perspectives to this context that promotes education.

This research investigates the approach between art and technology through the study of creative processes related to experimental digital lutherie. Taking into account the concepts of game and apparatus from Vilém Flusser Theory, as well as the concept of open object from the work of Gilbert Simondon, the research aims to analyses the intrinsic aspects related to the creation of musical instruments in contemporary art. The results point out that the creative work carried out by the luthier of experimental instruments has a handmade characteristic which, nevertheless, uses industrialized components as preliminary material. Within this creative context, the luthier explores permutation procedures using standard electronic components, seeking to achieve unique aesthetic results. Starting from this game of combinations, the luthier of experimental instruments integrates art and technology in an instance guided by the aesthetic valuation of the object in order to reach the opening point that allows him to comprehend the technological object as something asymmetrical, singular and adjustable to the meaning he desires to produce.

The objective of the present research was to study the judicial sentences related to patrimonial crimes, especially those of theft and robbery, committed by blacks and whites in the city of São Carlos and that were handed down in 2017. For that, the analysis was made defendants' profile using the categories gender, race, social class, education and age. The characteristics of the criminal process, the results of the sentences, the exercise of defense guarantees and the legal particularities of each case were also considered. The results indicate that property crimes mostly refer to material goods of low economic value, indicating that criminal justice in São Carlos is active in the solution of very simple causes. The vast majority of defendants are convicted and the prison sentence is predominant, however the penalties for restricting rights are also applied, especially in cases of theft. The hypothesis raised and proven is that the judges differently condemn black and white individuals for giving the first category more severe penalties. The results also point to the importance of stereotypes linked to drugs in determining the sentence, signaling that the logic of the “war on drugs” interferes in the judgment of property crimes. The methodology used was based on documentary analysis. The conclusions were towards confirming institutional racism within the judicial system, intersected with other forms of social labeling of defendants, where the privilege of white individuals over blacks and the failure of the judicial system to apply the principle of equality was affirmed.

When exposed to long-term ultraviolet radiation (UVR), the skin may cause photoaging which, in its histological configuration, presents degradation of the extracellular matrix in the epidermis and dermis. glandular hyperplasia (TSOURELI-NIKITA et al., 2006; YAAR AND GILCHREST, 2007) and continuous production of reactive oxygen species in order to impair the balance between pro-oxidant production and antioxidant defense. The objective of this in vivo controlled double-blind experimental study was to evaluate the effects on oxidative stress of PBL using the LED device (660 nm), and an annatto extract-based dermocosmetic, applied as separate and associated therapies. in photoaged mice. Fifty 8-week-old male BALB / c mice weighing 25-30 grams from the Central Biotery of the Federal University of Viçosa-MG were used for the study. The animals were exposed to UVR over a period of 20 weeks. After photoaging induction, the animals were randomly allocated into 5 groups, each group consisting of 10 animals: 2 control groups and 3 treatment groups (LED group, Urucum group and LED + Ucurum group). The results showed that the treatment with the annatto dermocosmetic decreases the levels of MDA and NO2 / NO3, consequently there is also a decrease in SOD and CAT and an antioxidant effect. Treatment with Urucum-based dermocosmetics and / or LED provided histological and histomorphometric changes in the epithelial tissue of photoaged mice, such as increased dermal cellularity, increased Type I collagen, increased epidermis thickness, and decreased epidermal recesses. in some groups treated in this study. Thus, it was concluded that the dermocosmetic base of Urucum extract was able to reduce MDA and NO2 / NO3 suggesting a balance between the levels of antioxidants SOD and CAT in photoaged mice, producing hepatological and histomorphometric changes. The treatment with 660nm LED applied on creep of 21.25 J / cm2, application time of 1 min and 54 J / point showed no changes in oxidative stress and antioxidant levels in the epithelial tissue of photoaged mice. In future research the clinical application in humans of dermocosmetic becomes important to evaluate the effects on daily use and anti-aging effects.

Statistics is part of our daily lives and reading and interpreting are necessary skills for all citizens. However, we realize that a growing number of public-school students can’t have access to statistical information. Faced with this difficulty, we propose here to review and request this content and skills using the game Statistical Disk. We expect that students will be able to: a) diagnose which statistical language skills need to be reviewed; b) select, develop and apply theoretical and practical activities on the subject; c) conduct research activities and collect data for charting; and d) analyze the benefits and harms, if any, of using practical in the math classroom. With the support of Didactic Engineering, we propose to survey which skills and content are being included in a diagnostic assessment, to propose a theoretical and practical intervention plan and to evaluate the students, comparing the data obtained in before, during and after to empirically analyze and how it improved. We could see the use of the reframed game and the context for learning terms prior to summaries for students, making their teaching-learning process fun and meaningful.

Introduction: Permanent Health Education (EPS) aims to provide reflections on professional practice, with the participation of all team members in an environment of exchange and learning (BARBOSA, FERREIRA, BARBOSA, 2012). Objective: The research aimed to learn from team managers, in the scope of Primary Care, how the proposal for permanent health education in their work and management spaces has taken place. Methodology: Qualitative research with data collection using the semi-structured interview technique with 25 BA managers in the city of Rio Claro / SP. Data analysis took place through content analysis (CAMARA, 2013). Results: Thematic axes are: Permanent Education in Health: conceptual dimension and Permanent Education in Health: challenges of operationalizing PHE. Conclusion: The study reveals that, although there is a clear concept about Permanent Education in Health, in practice, actions of this are still mixed with those of continuing education, but regardless of this, they are being practiced with exchanges of professional experiences in daily life and / or meetings of team. There are challenges of inadequate dimensioning of professionals and resistance to changes in daily work, but also the power that it presents as a necessary process in daily practice in the health area. Thus, Permanent Education in Health becomes a movement in a continuous process, with the promotion of changes in the work environment and, consequent actions in the attention to users and the community, which can be considered a management tool in the area of health and improvement in the quality of health care.
