    Starting from the comprehension that the subject in its relation with the world is invariably measured by imaginary projections, which affect the objects and individuals surrounding it, being those indispensable for the construction of what is known as reality. This research, from the Applied Linguistics field in interface with the Discourse Analysis, aims to discuss the presence of imaginaries – viewed as meaning networks that circulates through the subject’s speeches. They concern some verbal structures of the Spanish language, namely: simple and compound forms of the Past Perfect Indicative [trabajé / he trabajado], the cases –ra [trabajara] and –se [trabajase] from the Past Imperfect and Pluperfect Subjunctive the verbal diphthong and the periphrasis of the gerund and infinitive formed by [verbal lexemes + a + infinitive]. The aim is to verify the existence of determined images over the verbal forms mentioned on the part of some Spanish teachers in training from a university of the São Paulo state in Brazil. This investigation, with a qualitative approach, made use of a mixed methodology in regards to its data collection, for which an acceptability test was applied and whose quantitative results were taken as initial leads about the research question. The research was also based on a semi structured and recorded interview, which was later, transcribed and analyzed with the theoretical background from Discourse Analysis. The research instruments consider the discussion of this paper the discourse position of the linguistic identity, which the subject occupies when uttering and consequently making in his speech the resound of other speeches. Besides, performing in discourse the meanings of a “comforting place” sometimes associated to the use of more typologically different forms, and sometimes related to the use of more similar forms between Portuguese and Spanish. The elaboration meanings of “removal of the undesirable” as a way of preventing the “mistake” and the confusion. The last ones metonymized as portunhol; the production of images of [+ formality] and of [- formality]; the actualization of the idea of “Spanish as a language of diphthongs”. Besides, the glimpsing of a subject caught in a Discourse Formation that provides the preferred utterance by the similarity between the languages as way of not risking too much. While at the same time, it provides the preferred utterances through the most distinct structures in relation to the mother tongue as way of inscribing legitimately in the language of the other.

    Healthy family experiences contribute to the development of adaptative child behaviors; adverse experiences, such as exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV), are associated with short- and long-term problems. The present study aimed to develop a multiple case study comparing dyads exposed and not exposed to IPV in relation to the mother-child bond. Five mothers (30-46 years) and 5 children, 3 girls and 2 boys, aged between 9 and 11 years (M=9.8; SD=0.84) participated in the study. Mothers answered the Revised Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS2-R) and children answered the Exposure to Domestic Violence Scale (EEVD), the Attachment to Parents Assessment Scale and a semi-structured interview. The data indicated that four mothers reported a history of physical IPV, two of which were in a shelter situation with their children at the time of collection. It was found that the children of women victims of physical IPV were exposed to a greater number of risk factors and had lower values on the scale of attachment to parents when compared to the other children. Future studies to investigate the relationship between these variables, supporting future interventions for children exposed to violence, is discussed.

    ABSTRACT The civil construction sector has been responsible for significant environmental degradation, either by the consumption of natural resources, or by the production of a critical volume of waste and pollution. In the global context, minimize these impacts is part of the efforts to allow future generations to meet their demands. Knowing that the environmental impacts of a building extend throughout its life cycle, the solutions adopted in the conception and design phases have high potential to reduce or increase it. From this perspective, this paper was structured in two parts. The first one was a bibliographic review to survey and compile procedures, measures, and solutions with low environmental impact for single-family homes. This investigation was guided by topics related to water, human environmental comfort, and energy, and also includes the environmental certifications, approaching, more specifically, the seal Selo Casa Azul and the label Qualiverde. In the second part, based on the subsidies obtained, a case study of a residence located in São Carlos, which sought to implement solutions aligned to a more sustainable perspective, was carried out. Thus, along with the systematization of these design and constructive solutions, it was possible to analyze how the case study absorbed and incorporated the solutions with low environmental impact, discussing relevant aspects. The characteristics of this plot, such as its area of 5,000m², enabled the adoption of a set of solutions that could hardly be used in dense urban areas. On the other hand, within the analyzed variables, some of the solutions used could be improved. In this discussion, it is emphasized that sustainability doesn’t have an achievable limit. In the end, the importance of considering a set of solutions aimed at sustainability and adequate for each context, from the initial design stage, is highlighted, so that it can complement each other and efficiently promote the reduction or, if possible, elimination of different types of impacts.

    Promoting inclusive physical education (PE) classes is a challenge for teachers in the regular school system, an alternative that aims to subsidize the teacher to promote an inclusive class is the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). In this context, this research aimed to promote continuing education for physical education teachers that addressed the use of UDL in the context of regular education. To this end, this study was composed of two stages, stage 1 called diagnosis and planning was a descriptive research in which an online questionnaire was applied to 26 physical education teachers from a municipal education network, and two meetings were held with technical assistants of physical education that were recorded in the field diary. After qualitative analysis, a continuing education program was developed according to the demand of the county. The second stage corresponded to a collaborative research that used the focus group as a data collection technique and as a formative space for teachers. All five meetings were recorded and transcribed for analysis. Thematic analysis was carried out of all the material that gave rise to four major topics for discussion, they were: 1) Reflections on inclusion; 2) Inclusive pedagogical practices in PE; 3) PE teaching planning for PAEE students; 4) Application of UDL in PE: potential and challenges. As an external activity, teachers planned and applied an activity from the perspective of UDL. As a collective construct of continuing education, a practical guide for the application of UDL in PE and a concept map of UDL in PE were developed. The results showed that UDL collaborates for the inclusion of PAEE in the teachers' view because it is concerned with the engagement of all students in the activities. However, the teachers cited the short class time and the Brazilian structure as obstacles to the implementation of UDL in PE classes. At the end of the study, a social validity questionnaire was applied in order to evaluate the training program in which the participants were satisfied with the training offered. We conclude that it is possible to apply the principles of UDL in PE classes in regular education, especially if teachers work through interdisciplinary. The model of continuing education based on collaboration and in a focus group format proved to be efficient in terms of allowing the teacher to reflect on his practice and create new ways to promote inclusive practices. The collective constructs built during the training will collaborate for the application of the DUA in PE classes, and also in the training of other teachers.

    Legal abortion resulting from rape is legalized in Brazil. However there are several obstacles, such as ignorance of the legislation and moral judgments of professionals, which compromise the exercise of the victims' reproductive autonomy. This research aimed to develop and validate a vignette instrument that allows collecting data on attitudes, knowledge and opinions of health professionals in relation to cases of rape victims who became pregnant as a result of violence and wish to have an abortion. Thus, based on reports and studies on the subject, seven vignettes were created, which were evaluated by expert judges. Seven judges evaluated each item of the instrument based on the criteria of suitability to the target audience, relevance and clarity in language. The agreement analysis was performed based on the Content Validity Coefficient (CVC) of each item and total for each criterion. The evaluations per item were satisfactory, as well as the instrument as a whole in the aforementioned criteria (respectively: CVCa=0.95; CVCr=0.97; CVCl=0.90). Then, the instrument went through the pilot application phase, in which, due to problems with the platform used, only one answer was fully recorded. Even so, the answer was analyzed qualitatively, especially in relation to the understanding of the instrument. Both phases of instrument validation included a Bardin content analysis of the data, which were categorized according to their theme. From the qualitative analysis of both stages, it was possible to identify problems of comprehension indicated, which were later repaired. It is possible to conclude that the instrument presented acceptable psychometric qualities for the vignette instrument to fulfill its objective.

    The objective of this paper is to analyze how income concentration is related to tax policy in Brazil, where it seeks to assess the distributive impacts of an increase in the progressivity of taxes. Through the bibliographic review of the debate on income distribution in Brazil, it is observed that the interpretations about this characteristic of the Brazilian economy oscillated between the impact of salary policies and the educational aspects of the population within the theory of human capital. Recent research shows that the focus of the discussion on income distribution should be turned to the richest groups in society. To measure the gains in distributive terms of an increase in progressive taxation, based on the discussion of profits and dividends, the data provided by the “Receita Federal” were used because they can be used within the concept of tax income. The construction of the Gini coefficients is as follows: first, there is a large concentration of income within the data provided by the “Receita Federal”, indicating similarity with recent research on the top of the distribution. This allows the use of data as a proxy to measure distributive gains with changes in the taxation of the wealthiest groups and to envision the problem of “pejotização” in Brazilian society. Secondly, there are the distributive gains from the introduction of a progressive rate on the exempt income category: reduction of the Gini coefficient by 3.09% for all taxpayers and 1.97 % for recipients of profits and dividends together with the maintence of the downward trend of the indicator. Thus, it seeks to contribute so that the tax reform proposals also consider equity aspects on the form of collection. Keywords:

    Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), interferential current (CI) and Aussie current are different types of electrical stimulation used in the treatment of both acute and chronic pain, however it is not known if there is a difference in relation to the hypoalgesic effect and sensory comfort between them. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the hypoalgesic effect and sensory comfort between TENS, CI and Aussie current in healthy individuals. One hundred and twenty individuals were randomly assigned to four groups: TENS, CI, Aussie current and Placebo. The electrical stimulation was administered to the dominant forearm with a strong but comfortable intensity, for 30 minutes to the three groups of electric currents and to the Placebo group, the electrodes were positioned with the equipment turned off. The pressure pain threshold and sensory comfort were measured, respectively, with a digital algometer and visual analog scale. There was a significant segmental and extrasegmental hypoalgesic effect between the active groups compared to the Placebo group at the first 15 minutes of application. At 30 minutes, there was also a significant segmental and extrasegmental hypoalgesic effect between the active groups compared to the Placebo group. After 20 minutes of stimulation, there was no significant segmental difference between groups. And after 20 minutes of stimulation, there was a significant extrasegmental hypoalgesic effect in the active groups compared to the Placebo group. There was no significant difference in sensory comfort between the electrical currents. In conclusion, TENS, CI and Aussie current showed greater segmental and extrasegmental hypoalgesic effect during stimulation compared to Placebo and sensory comfort was similar between them.

    Emotions are an important aspect of the user experience when using a system. In the literature, there are works that propose systems that change as user interfaces (UI) considering emotions, taking into account what is felt before or during use. However, no works were found that change the UI, taking into account the emotional state that the user would like to feel. Furthermore, as emotions are easily changed by internal and external events, it is necessary to offer UI that considers and reacts to emotions in interaction time, demanding a flexible software solution. Also, the measurement of emotional state can consider, in addition to the user’s self-expression (subjective feeling), also motor expressions, such as facial movements, and physiological signals, such as heart rate. Obtaining data requires the adaptation of different sensors in different contexts of use, which demands that the computer system have high maintainability. Thus, this undergraduation conclusion work aimed to extend the specific UIFlex plugin to create a flexible infrastructure, with good maintainability, capable of offering UI adaptations in interaction time based on the emotional states that a user feels and desires. to feel. In addition, the software solution was adapted to the IBM MAPE-K blueprint. Versions with and without MAPE-K were compared according to software evaluation metrics. The results suggest that the adequacy to the blueprint brought benefits to the maintainability of the proposed solution.

    The dissertation is configured as a case study from the perspective of historical geography, which seeks to understand the social space of the village of Itu, in a time frame that covers the period from 1780 to 1830, where due to a combination of factors internal and also external, the sugarcane monoculture had a considerable increase in its production in the locality, making the village of Itu the largest producing unit in São Paulo at the end of the second half of the 18th century, with production numbers well above the other captaincy villages. Thus, from this point of view, the research aimed to analyze the spatial formation of the city of Itu, eg, how the urban plan of the village had its patterns changed, frightened houses were built, improvements in the public space became visible and new perspectives and realities began to project itself into the lives of its inhabitants, understood as those individuals identified from the existing compulsory population packs, a significant increase in their number and expressed in the countless elements that made up the local material culture. Therefore, the past study of the village of Itu is only possible based on the theoretical methodological framework of historical geography, which, based on its interdisciplinarity, provided the appropriate and necessary tooling in this study where space and time interact. Primary sources such as inventories, bundles of the population of the village, minutes of the chamber, reports from the overseas historical archive, maps, iconography and travelers' reports are used in conjunction with secondary sources, such as Petrone's “sugarcane crop in São Paulo” and are capable of to elucidate considerably this past space, filling gaps and enabling the identification of the most diverse factors that together formed the village of sugar. The data obtained by the research pointed to new cultural elements inserted in the locality, exercising influences and being a determining factor of the most diverse transformations that the city of Itu went through, implying in the relevance for the understanding of the space of the understanding of the social layers that interact and in which , from the central figure of the owners of the mill, it was possible to interpret the social organism and the classes that gravitated around these dominant figures, with whom slaves, aggregates, traders, tropeiros kept a relationship of dependence. As possible conclusions raised, it was observed that the power structures of the ituana society established the hierarchy and delimited patterns and symbols of its members, which identified themselves as a community through the uses, customs, material goods, or even by the clothes, allowing an understanding broader of a society that was formed out of a slave-based agricultural economy, and these configurations found in the past would be reflected up to the present day, whether in social formation or even in the appropriation of city spaces that have significant inheritances from that period.

    Brazil has wide potential to develop itself in a sustainable way. The UN 2030 Agenda, combined to Brazilian Impact Investment Ecosystem, is part of the fronts that provide economic growth linked to increased social and environmental impact. This study aimed to discuss the characteristics and possibilities of Impact Investment, in addition financial loans, through the case study of an Impact Investor, Bemtevi Investimento Social. By means of qualitative descriptive research methodology, it was possible to map Bemtevi's activities and identify which of them are not related to the financial resource loan, such as: the inclusive selection process, the employment of the Theory of Change methodology to define the strategy and results monitoring, the follow-up and counseling during the Bemtevi Journey and the stimulus to interest reduction attached to achieving socioenvironmental impact goals. These characteristics strengthen the continuity of Social Businesses, being a push for Sustainable Development guidelines.

    The three-phase dc-ac converters based on power electronics are the main equipment used to connect renewable sources to the electricity distribution system. The three-phase four-wire distribution system with voltage unbalance has undesired negative and zero sequence components, which can cause several negative impacts to the system. Among these impacts, it stands out as synchronism failures between the dc-ca converter and the electrical grid, which is normally done through Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The Synchronous Reference Frame-PLL (SRF-PLL) is it used. However, this method does not perform well when the electrical grid has voltage unbalance, since negative and zero sequence components are present in the unbalanced system. There are PLLs that can be used, within certain operating limits, in an electrical grid with voltage imbalance, such as Dual Second Order Generalized Integrator-PLL (DSOGI-PLL) that allows the synchronism between the converter cc-ca and the mains even in conditions of voltage imbalance. In this work, the performance of SRF-PLL and DSOGI-PLL is studied when the cc-ca converter is subjected to several imbalance factors. The simulation results are obtained, bulletin with the balanced system. In addition, the system was simulated with unbalanced loads, considering some operating situations. The main conclusion obtained is that the cc-ca converter can inject sinusoidal currents into the electrical grid up to a certain operating limit using the DSOGI-PLL

    Weed species, especially those from the Poaceae and Cyperaceae families, cause several problems in the first stages of tree seedling plantings aiming for tropical forest restoration. The general objective of this work is to evaluate the diversity and biomass of weeds in forest restoration plantations submitted to different weed control techniques and fertilization intensities. Do species composition and richness vary depending on weed control techniques and fertilization levels? Does the biomass of unwanted herbaceous plants vary as a function of weed control techniques and fertilization levels? When we intensify the control of weeds with the use of herbicide, does the proportion of biomass and the richness of non-monocots weeds increase? The hypothesis was that in the treatment carried out with intensive management of weeds (glyphosate spraying and mechanical weed control around seedlings every three months) we would have a lower biomass of Poaceae and Cyperaceae members, and a greater overall richness of weed species. On the other hand, the treatment with conventional management (mowing and weed control around the seedling every six months) and with the use of fertilization, would have a higher biomass of Poaceae and Cyperaceae species, and a lower weed species richness overall. To answer these questions, two management techniques were used to control weeds: intensive management with seedling crowning; and conventional management using traditional mechanized mowing and seedling crowning. Fertilization was carried out two times, first in holes and then over the soil in a circle, both place around the seedlings. In the first one, right after planting, we applied 85 g per seedling of the NPK 14-04-08 fertilizer. In the second moment, 45 g per seedling of the NPK 10-0-20 was applied. A full randomized design in the “Split-plot” scheme was used. For the weed inventory, we used 0.25 m2 squares, placed both in the row (around the seedlings) and in the interow. We used ANOVA followed by the Tukey´s test for the statistical analyses. We found 38 weed species, but found neither effect of fertilization and control methods nor interaction among them on the measured variables. At the same time, there was a higher biomass for monocots and in the interow of the plantings. Placing some samples in the row, around the seedlings, may probably favored the unexpected results. The study shows us that knowledge on the diversity and biomass of weeds in area to be restored can help deciding on the best control methods to be used in forest restoration projects.

    In view of climate change aggravated by the use of fossil fuels, there is a need for solutions to reduce their use in order to help reduce greenhouse gases (GHG). Allied to this fact, food waste is discarded in large amounts causing severe environmental pollution in many countries. Among the different possible treatment routes, the anaerobic digestion (AD) of food residues for the production of biogas is a proven and effective solution for the treatment and recovery of these residues. Within this context, the objective of this work is to carry out an analysis of scientific publications, presenting relevant works and detailing the most important parameters for the production of biogas from food waste, understanding the broader global contours of ongoing scientific and technological research. In addition, a case study of the biogas plant of the Institute of Energy and Environment (IEE) at USP was carried out in order to demonstrate the feasibility of this process. For this, a detailed analysis of scientific data was performed using the database at Web of Science and Google Scholar, and Google Scholar (GA). Among the 677 studies found, there is a large presence of China conducting research and the growing interest in the subject, mainly related to solutions to climate change. Furthermore, the most relevant studies selected by the GA show the predominance of mesophilic batch systems, with mostly dry anaerobic digestion.

    This study investigates discourses of (not only) scientific associations regarding economic development and innovation. The discourses were delivered through institutional websites and the legislative arena, aiming at hegemony in policies for science, technology, and innovation in Brazil. Our general research problem referred to the consensus defended and the propositions debated in the lower and upper House of Representatives. Our main objective was to reveal the role of academic associations in this process, as well as to map problems detected and solutions prescribed by them. We strategically pointed out aspects of the discourses that have, in their form, the seal of academy (mermaid metaphor) and, in their content, the intransigent defense of an obsolete perspective of state (vicar metaphor). The method is referred to in theories on symbolic capital, scientific field, and economic development, which allowed us to approach historical, social, and political aspects in our explanations. This theory guided us in the criticism to the entities’ main arguments, aiming to expose specific conditions of underdeveloped countries and contradictions inherent to the establishment of public policies for higher education. We exclusively used texts and audios available at the Internet, at the House of Representative’s website, and at the institutional websites of associations (herein referred to as entities). The sample primarily entails what was published from 2011 to 2016 and, additionally, the entities’ textual production between 2016 and 2018. Data were collected remotely, as all repositories used were widely available during the research period. Subsequently, the material was assessed, catalogued, and transcribed when necessary. Analysis was performed through a critical reading of various genres and a subsequent triangulation of data – when comparing the entities’ bibliographical production, institutional debates in Public Hearings at the House of Representatives, and the legislation enacted. Our results show an intense convergence of the entities’ agenda and a decisive influence on the promulgation of the new Legal Framework for Science, Technology, and Innovation. We concluded that the coalition (academic entrepreneurs, public managers, and private investors) perceived the problems that affect knowledge production and industrial activity in contemporary Brazil in a partial and insufficient way – especially when compared with mission-oriented innovation policies.

    Corrosion is a natural phenomenon that causes a reduction in the life of components made with metallic and non-metallic materials. This process remains in constant research in order to be avoided by industries through detection techniques and anticorrosive methods. One type of high impact corrosion is stress corrosion cracking (CST), a phenomenon that occurs when a (susceptible) metal is exposed to an aggressive environment and, at the same time, it is tensioned, a very common situation in oil pipelines. Considering the importance of increasing the life of components by reducing the effects of corrosion and knowing that most parts produced are finished by material removal processes and these processes generate defects on the surfaces that can lead the component to premature failure, this research aims to understand the effect of machining on the life of a SAE 1020 steel subjected to CST. For this purpose, specimens of the aforementioned material were turned under different feed rates and exposed to an aggressive environment (NaOH solution), at a temperature of 55°C, and subjected to a fixed tensile load, according to ASTM G49- 85. In addition to the CST tests, specimens were made for corrosion tests by immersion in the same solution, in order to determine the effect of stress. The results obtained showed that the parts machined with higher feed values were more degraded, both in generalized corrosion and in CST. In the first case, alveolar corrosion on the surface was verified, while in the second, crack formation was noted.

    This paper aims to understand the operation and objectives of a free trade zone, as well as to understand whether the Manaus Free Trade Zone, created in 1957, meets the main purposes stipulated by law. The central idea is to develop an analysis that evaluates whether the objectives with the implementation of the FTZ were met, from the joint analysis of the determining decrees of the ZFM, and results present in economic and social indices. Thus, with the confrontation between desires and impacts, the effectiveness of the free zone model in the state is evaluated. From this analysis we conclude the importance of the pole in improving the lives of the population, especially in aspects related to education, income, work, development of industries and technology.

    Currently, with the advent of technology, lifestyle has been undergoing big changes. The way of moving in cities is no different. With the creation of car transport by apps, a new way of getting around in cities emerged. Such businesses way gain space every day for offering to their users a quality service that combines, above all, attractive prices and more safety. In addition, they offer a service that covers routes not served by public transport. This paper, through an online form, seeks to understand and map the target audience of Uber passengers in São Carlos-SP, to understand if this transportation mode is a substitute or a complement to urban public transport. It was noted that 70% of survey participants started using Uber instead of buses in the COVID-19 pandemic. The main reason is health, in this case replacing travel via public transport. The form was answered by a group that represents a small sample space when compared to the entire population of the city. So, it is suggested that futures works investigate more cases to improve the conclusions presented here. Furthermore, it is important to emphasize the interference of the period experienced during the pandemic in the results obtained. Since the search for more health-related safety, there is a certain migration of travel to Uber.

    Green sample preparation procedures were developed in this dissertation for determination of elemental impurities in drugs and dietary supplements by argon-based plasma spectroanalytical methods according to Chapters 232, 233 and 2232 from the United States Pharmacopeia. Chapter 3 describes the development of a procedure for microwave-assisted sample preparation of medicines using diluted nitric acid solution followed by determination of 24 elements using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). A dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction procedure for determination of Cd, Hg, and Pb in drug samples by ICP OES is also presented. A dilute-and-shoot procedure for determination of 23 elements in liquid pharmaceutical samples by ICP OES is presented in Chapter 4 as well as a procedure for dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction of Cd, Co, Hg, Ni, Pb, and V in liquid drug samples for subsequent measurements by ICP OES. Chapter 5 describes the development of microwave-assisted sample preparation procedure of sport supplements using dilute nitric acid solution followed by determination of As, Cd, Hg and Pb using ICP-MS. In all chapters previously mentioned, calibration strategies, such as standard additions, internal standardization, multi-isotope calibration and one-point standard addition, are evaluated for correction of matrix effects as well as instrumental strategies based on aerosol dilution and collision cell technology for ICP-MS measurements. These strategies were essential to correct for spectral and non-spectral interferences, enabling the accurate determination of elemental impurities in solid pharmaceutical samples (tablets and pills), liquid drugs (oral solutions and parenteral drugs) and sport supplements by ICP-based methods.
