The missing data are observations that should have been made, but were not for some reason, thus reducing the ability to understand the nature of the phenomenon, in addition to making it difficult to extract information from the analyzed data, since the impact on the results of the studies is not always known. As a considerable part of the statistical techniques were developed to analyze complete data, the missing data usually need to be treated in such a way that the resulting dataset can be analyzed by such established methods. The most used methods to deal with missing data are divided, mainly, between methods of data removal and imputation, being both configurations, in most cases, disadvantageous in terms of the analysis of the final result, either by making the results biased or because we have to work with the uncertainty associated with the imputation of unknown values. In this work, then, we propose some model-based methods for solving the problem of missing data for regression analysis, without having to resort to imputation or removal of information. We verified the performance of the proposed methodologies on simulated data under different scenarios and compared it with the performance of other traditional techniques of imputation and data removal.

The integration of substrates from bioprocesses is of great interest due to the need of destination for them and the possibility of converting them into value-added products. Among these substrates, the hydrolysates from biorefineries and glycerol obtained from the production of biofuels stand out. Listed as an important chemical platform that can be obtained from biomass by the U.S. Department of Energy, 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) becomes a product option to be obtained from the co-products mentioned above. The production of 3-HP by biological routes presents some advantages over chemical routes and has become increasingly feasible due to the continuous advancement in industrial biotechnology. To make this production feasible, bioprocesses have been developed from recombinant microorganisms. Thus, the application of genetic engineering in the modification of genes related to the metabolic pathway of these microorganisms allows the construction of strains capable of obtaining 3-HP from cheap substrates (e.g., glycerol, glucose, and xylose). A recombinant E. coli strain developed in our research group showed promising results through the β-alanine production route, but the insertion of the 3-HP production pathway in this strain resulted in a deficiency of cofactors, since the last reaction of the pathway is NADPH dependent. Therefore, the regeneration of this cofactor was evaluated by the expression of genes encoding the NADP+ dependent enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, so that the demand for this cofactor by the NADPH dependent pathways could be met. Overexpression of the gapN gene from Streptococcus equi zooepidemicus, which encodes an NADP+ dependent GAPDH, coupled with regulation of endogenous gapA transcription and the use of glycerol as a carbon source, resulted in 147% higher production compared to the control strain. The use of lactose as an induction agent for the lacUV5 promoter was also evaluated in this study and increased the final 3-HP concentration by about 7% compared to the production obtained by the same strain using 1mM IPTG as an induction agent. Furthermore, conditions with O2 restriction in the process showed that, for the pathway studied, 3-HP production is favored under aerobic condition, and oxygen restriction limits production and leads to acetate accumulation by the cell. Taken together, the strategies evaluated led to the second highest production of 3-HP by the β-alanine pathway reported so far in the literature.

Context: This work starts from the hypothesis that controllers for adaptive systems that are partitioned into elements, in this work called microcontrollers, which are dedicated to each service involved in the stages of a control loop have the advantage of structural flexibility without compromising the reconfiguration and performance of the target system. Objective: This work aims to propose and evaluate an approach to develop controllers that are structurally flexible (i.e. based on microcontrollers), investigating advantages of the approach by comparing with different configurations of controllers. Methodology: In order to achieve the objective, the following activities were performed: (1) definition of flexible controllers by promoting them as a set of independent microcontrollers, demonstrating them as microservices implementations of the control loops; (2) conduction of an exploratory study and associated qualitative analysis regarding the reconfigurations of the controller; (3) execution of comparative studies to evaluate the approach that is being proposed against other approaches found in the literature; and (4) specification of an implementation by using the microcontroller-based approach, to demonstrate the flexibility of the approach. Results: the results and contributions are: an approach to define controllers that are structurally flexible; an exploratory study involving a qualitative analyse about reconfiguration in design time and runtime; a set of comparative studies evaluating different approaches from the literature; a proposal involving the evolution of the multi-layered controller to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach of this work. Conclusion: As conclusion, a multi-layered controller design, based on micro-controllers, provides the basis for defining structurally flexible controllers at operational-time, and may promote reuse at development-time. In addition, even demanding more computational resources, the approach does not impact on the performance and on the reconfiguration of the target system.

Considering the relevance of protected áreas (PAs) used as springs for large urban centers and the pressures they have been suffering with the advancement of urban areas, this work analyzes three PAs and their respective environmental management instruments in different countries of the global southern hemisphere in the Chile, Brazil and Australia, with different socio-environmental and economic realities. The objective is to expand knowledge about the relationship between the variables of land use and the environmental management instruments in force in the area. Through multitemporal mapping of land use, between 1985 and 2020, with LandSat images, Maximum Likelihood classification and in a GIS environment, the changes that occurred in the surroundings and within the limits of the PAs were analyzed. The results indicate a growing urban expansion towards the PAs along with other changes in land use, such as the reduction of vegetation, which influence the quality and quantity of water in springs. Regarding the instruments, problems were identified that converge to inadequate management, in different intensities. To contribute to the maintenance of water resources and ecosystem services in PAs, it is essential that there is an economic investment, monitoring and effective management in the expansion and planning of areas of vegetation linked to urban planning.

The Simplified Drum-Buffer-Rope (S-DBR) is a system that encompasses the planning, scheduling, production control, and control inventory replenishment in the supply chain. S-DBR offers distinct approaches for make-to-order and make-to-stock manufacturing environments. For this research, we focus on the method applicable to make-to-stock environments, known as Make-To-Availability (MTA) in S-DBR. MTA commits to ensuring high product availability. To adapt to merchandise distribution environments, the MTA has been expanded by incorporating new rules. While this expansion isn't considered a new method by its original authors, we refer to it as Distribution-To-Availability (DTA) to differentiate it from MTA. Our previous studies on S-DBR revealed operational challenges with both MTA and DTA. Therefore, this research aims to propose enhancements for these two methods, which are supported by four specific objectives. The first objective (i) is to conduct a systematic literature review to identify suggestions and proposed improvements for S-DBR and its predecessor, DBR. The review uncovered that the previously identified problems have yet to be addressed, and studies are scarce on S-DBR compared to DBR. One of the difficulties encountered by MTA is effectively managing manufacturing environments with sequence-dependent setup time. The second (ii) and third (iii) objectives are dedicated to tackling this challenge. Objective (ii) involves identifying dispatch rules suitable for MTA, while objective (iii) focuses on proposing a solution for MTA in sequence-dependent setup time environments. In the case of DTA, the challenge lies in planning the replenishment of stock buffers within the supply chain, particularly in the distribution network. S-DBR emphasizes the need for frequent inventory allocation but does not offer a solution that effectively balances transport costs and inventory maintenance costs. Consequently, the specific objective (iv) aims to propose a solution that enables DTA to address the trade-off between transportation costs and inventory maintenance costs, ensuring both product availability and profitability. The research results demonstrate that utilizing different dispatch rules can enhance the performance of MTA. Furthermore, our proposed solution for sequence-dependent setup time environments has improved the performance of MTA. Regarding DTA, the proposed solutions effectively ensure inventory supply in the distribution network by striking a balance between transport and inventory maintenance costs, thereby maintaining product availability and profitability.

Nitrogen is essential in corn and the rising prices of this fertilizer become a big problem for producers. Therefore, this research was carried out with the central objective of analyzing the influence of different doses of nitrogen on productivity and economic return in irrigated and rainfed maize under crop conditions, in the municipality of Buri - SP. The treatments in each environment consisted of 4 doses of nitrogen in topdress in the form of urea (40, 80, 120 and 160 kg ha-1) and the experimental design was randomized blocks, with 8 replications. The yield of corn grains in the rainfed and irrigated environments and the economic viability of the nitrogen doses used in the experiments were evaluated. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the averages of nitrogen doses within each environment, however, when analyzing the averages of corn grain yield between the rainfed and irrigated environments, higher productivity was observed in the irrigated environment. Regarding the economic analysis, the highest economic return was verified at the dose of 80 kg ha-1 of N in topdress, being more expressive in the rainfed crop. This research suggests that studies on reducing the dose of N can signal optimization of the use of urea, allowing greater profitability for producers and ensuring a more sustainable agriculture.

In this work, stable activator-free photoluminescent nanoparticles based on amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) were obtained for the first time, and their performance for latent fingerprint imaging was investigated. ACP nanoparticles with irregular rounded shape and diameters in 10–40 nm range were prepared by a rapid and simple chemical precipitation followed by heat treatment at 400 °C for 4 h. Notably, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, photoluminescence excitation and emission measurements reveal a high density of localized energy states within the wide optical band gap of heat-treated ACP (Eg = 5.25–5.42 eV). This behavior allowed the excitation of ACP in near-ultraviolet region (λexc = 450 nm, 2.75 eV), leading to an intense defect-related broadband (490–890 nm) photoluminescence emission centered at 540 nm (2.30 eV), 50 times more intense than untreated nanoparticles. The effect of lattice shrinkage due to structural water elimination, the presence of ionic vacancies (VCa and VO in PO43-) and carbonate groups (CO32−), on the luminescent properties of ACP were discussed in detail, as well as investigated after aqueous-mediated ACP crystallization into hydroxyapatite (HA). ACP nanoparticles were non-cytotoxic, as determined by MTT assay in Human Dermal Fibroblast neonatal (HDFn) cell line, with cell viabilities superior to 95% in all tested concentrations (20–320 μg/mL), after incubation for 24 and 48 h. Latent fingerprint images were obtained using the ACP nanoparticles under near-ultraviolet irradiation (λexc = 450 nm) in tweezers and LCD smartphone and successfully validated by the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System used by Scientific Police in Spain. The present results evidenced that the new luminescent ACP nanoparticles are safe to be used and agree with the forensic requirements for future legal actions.

DEVELOPMENT OF PROCEDURES FOR COPPER AND ZINC DETERMINATION IN MIXED MINERAL FERTILIZERS BY MICROWAVE-INDUCED PLASMA OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY (MIP OES). In the pulp industry, eucalyptus, introduced in Brazil in 1904, is the main raw material, according to the Brazilian Association of Silviculture. For these plants' good development, fertilizers must be used to meet their nutritional needs. In this approach, the determination of nutrients both in plants and in fertilizers is a demand of industrial quality control laboratories. Mixed mineral fertilizers, specifically the micronutrients copper and zinc, were the object of the present study. In partnership with the raw material supplier, aspects related to sampling were evaluated, and compaction during transport was investigated. Next has studied the sample preparation, with digestions involving open vials and assisted by microwave radiation. The determination of the analytes (copper and zinc) was performed by microwave-induced plasma optical emission spectrometry (MIP OES). The equipment and materials necessary for the execution of this project were made available in the laboratories of Bracell, unit in Lençóis Paulista, in the São Paulo State. The raw material responsible for being the source of copper and zinc (10% of each nutrient) was provided by the supplier. Different extractor solutions such as aqua regia, sulfuric acid, and citric acid did not show greater extractions effectiveness than hydrochloric acid, the method recommended by the manual of analytical methods of the Braziliam Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (MAPA). The wet digestion procedure in an open system on a hot plate presented statistically similar mean values (paired t-test) compared to the digestion performed in a closed system in a microwave digester for Cu. Otherwise, for Zn, the digestion assisted by microwave radiation was less effective, which suggested problems related to the heater program. The matrix after grinding (20 mesh) and the intermediate portion (retained in a sieve) were analyzed. Addition and recovery tests showed high recovery levels in part had on the sieve in all extractor studied solutions. The results suggest a possible matrix effect in MIP OES determinations, indicating the need to evaluate new alternatives for calibration or the use of an internal standard.

This work presents two new survival models induced by discrete frailty with unobserved heterogeneity and proportional hazards structure, for lifetime data. The first model consider the discrete frailty variable with Katz distribution and the second with Generalized Poisson distribution, which have overdispersion, equidispersion and underdispersion properties. The new models encompasses as particular case the promotion cure rate model. The proposed model with katz discrete frailty also encompasses the mixture cure rate model and cure rate model with dispersion. Inference aspects for proposed models as discussed, in a classical approach for Katz distribution, for which the maximum likelihood tools were used and regression models were presented to evaluate the effects of covariates in the cured fraction. Furthermore, an expectation maximization algorithm for determining the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of the model was presented. For Generalized Poisson model, a baysean aprouch was also used, through Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation method, especifically Metropolis–Hastings algorithm. Finally, the modeling was fully illustrated on cervical cancer data sets.

In an electrical network, the assessment and prediction of dynamic safety are essential to avoid interruptions in the supply of electrical energy to consumers, in addition to ensuring that the system operates reliably. Regarding the transient security assessment, predicting the behavior of the electrical power system in the post-fault period within a short time interval is essential so that preventive and, if necessary, corrective actions are taken. Traditionally, in the planning and operation of an electrical network, this study can be developed through the numerical solution of nonlinear differential equations, however, the accuracy of this analysis is limited by the capacity of representation of the model and the need for its constant updating. Considering the operation of power systems nowadays, with a continuous increase in load demand as well as the participation of energy generation sources with intermittent characteristics, this task has become increasingly challenging, increasing the degree of complexity of the mathematical model. On the other hand, the improvement of phasor measurement systems boosts the use of machine learning techniques to predict the status of the transient stability of an electrical network, among which neural networks have stood out. In view of this, the present work aims to investigate the use of artificial neural networks to predict transient stability in an electrical power system through measurements that can be easily measured by phasor measurement units, such as magnitude and voltage angle of the buses. In the proposed structure, the smallest number of measurement cycles necessary to perform the prediction is investigated, so that the behavior of the system (stable or unstable) is identified in the shortest possible time, helping the operator to make a decision. The results obtained in the IEEE 68 bus system show the efficiency of the predictor, which obtained an accuracy of 97.5% in the classification from 6 consecutive cycles of measuring the system response. When only 1 measurement cycle was provided to the predictor, a high accuracy is also achieved 96.1 % by the proposed methodology.

The open electricity market has stood out for being a competitive and dynamic way of trading an asset that was previously restricted to passive consumption. The freedom of negotiation provided to the participants of this market makes the prediction of its price, as well as the factors that affect it, extremely important. The purpose of this study is to develop three models based on different techniques of recurrent artificial neural networks and their comparative analysis. For this, the LSTM Feed Forward, LSTM bidirectional and GRU architectures must be applied to each of the time series explored. Average electric energy load data from the Brazilian free energy market between the years 2011 to 2021 are applied as an input for training, validation and testing processes. For the evaluation of the results, metrics of wide application were used, such as mean square error and mean absolute percentage error. The analysis of the models verifies the performance of the applied techniques, as well as possible causes for the performance of the established metrics. The results showed the bidirectional LSTM and GRU types as viable modeling results

This work aims to address the relationship between adolescence, social networks and education, considering the impacts that social networks can have on the lives of these developing individuals. focusing on changes in communication from the evolution of information and communication technologies; b) approach the teenager today and virtual social relationships, and c) explain the relationship between social networks and the educational area. For this, a narrative review was carried out on the subject, in which studies were identified in the scientific literature in areas of knowledge that address adolescence, especially the Human Sciences and Education. Initially, aspects that conceptualize what the internet and social networks are are focused, as well as the changes in social communication that occurred with the advent of these social networks. Next, adolescents in the 21st century are approached in the face of changes imposed by virtual social relationships, including aspects related to bullying and cyberbullying. Subsequently, it deals with the use of social networks and their relationship with the lives of adolescents and with Education. It is argued that social networks provided the creation of channels of communication, interaction and approximation between people, especially adolescents, but they can also influence processes of illness, exclusion and lack of commitment to life in society. In this sense, networks need to be used consciously and responsibly to ensure respect for people and social coexistence. In addition, it is considered that technologies are means that can be used in learning as long as the use is made within certain limits and pedagogical proposals configured according to the objectives of each educational institution.

Plastic pollution is a problem that affects the world's oceans and is increasing over time, being recognized as a new environmental crisis. It is known that seabirds are an extremely threatened group of birds by many natural and anthropogenic threats, and they ingest plastic in a comprehensive way between species, suffering direct and indirect impacts. These species allow the assessment of plastic pollution in the open ocean. Monitoring approaches based on this have been implemented around the world, providing robust data to evaluate pollution over time and to inform policies to tackle plastic pollution. On the other hand, in Brazil, there is a delay in dealing with the issue, being considered one of the main polluters of the South Atlantic. From this, the present study used a database from the daily and uninterrupted monitoring of seabirds stranded on the South and the Southeast Brazilian coast and necropsy records by the Projeto de Monitoramento de Praias da Bacia de Santos (Beach Monitoring Program of Santos Basin, PMP-BS) to understand how the species that occur in Brazil are related to plastic pollution and being impacted along with other anthropic disturbances, to ultimately designate potential bioindicator species. A new diagnosis of marine species ingesting plastic is provided, with 8 new records (3 seabirds and 5 shorebirds). An increase in reports of plastic ingested by birds was identified between 2017 and 2020 and the main causes of death and anthropic impact (fishing, plastic ingestion, and oiling) and vulnerable species were diagnosed. Plastic is also seen to potentially influence causes of death related to starvation, a secondary effect of plastic ingestion when not a direct cause. From this, we discussed species of seabirds to be considered as bioindicators in Brazil.

This research aimed to analyze Portuguese as a Foreign Language (PFL) textbooks grammars, focusing on the teaching aspects of the indirect object (IO) construction in Brazilian Portuguese (BP). The research presented is an exploratory-inductive study, with a qualitative paradigm, documentary nature and descriptive methodological basis, based on the perspective of grammar and language learning argued by Batstone (1994) and Larsen-Freeman (2003). Four PFL’s grammars were analyzed with publications made between 2010 and 2020. This investigation was based on studies that define the categories of Teaching Materials (TOMLINSON 2013; BROWN, 1994, LUCAS, 2016) and a brief historical background on some methodological trends of foreign language teaching. Finally, we built a characterization of the pronominal constructions of IO in BP through portuguese grammars and descriptive linguistic studies (CUNHA; CINTRA, 2001; BECHARA, 2009; CASTILHO, 2010; BERLINCK, 1996; MORAIS; BERLINCK, 2006; 2007). For the organization and analysis of data, 3 categories were elaborated: CAT. A - Elements of organization of the textbooks; CAT. B – Category sort and methodology references from the textbooks. C - Teaching procedures based on IO grammar content. The purpose of the categories is to make a diagnosis of how teaching about IO has been done in grammar textbooks of PFL. The results of this analysis indicate that there are factors such as: the teaching material category, the methodology foundation adopted by the material, the grammar and language perspective, which directly influence the grammar approach in PFL grammar textbooks that need to be known by educators and students for a better use these teaching materials. The data also indicate that, when opting for the non-systematization of grammar, many materials end up resorting to traditional normative classifications of BP that are unable to explain all occurrences of the verbal complementation of IO (CANÇADO; AMARAL, 2016). We sought to collaborate with a broader understanding of the possibilities of grammar teaching in grammar textbooks of PFL, in addition to verify, through analysis, how the content is being approached in materials that seek to explicitly explain the grammar of BP for foreigners.

To develop a critical, creative and autonomous citizen based on reflective thinking, this is the challenge that we propose in the present work, following the Kierkegaardian philosophy and seeking to dialogue with premises that encompass the existentialist philosophy and passing with considerable emphasis on the pedagogy of Paulo Freire. We chose to face the challenge of thinking about an education that aims at the construction and effectiveness of subjectivity in a process of humanization of the individual, where the edification must happen inside each existing one in the midst of its relationship with the world. We were able to achieve our goals, namely, to think about the possibility of working with Kierkegaardian thinking on the ground of the Brazilian basic education classroom, promoting constant dialogue with the contemporary educational urgency that should promote a critical awakening in the student class through existential philosophy. Within this conception, the impossibility of impartial education was proved, given that the educator must take a stand on the difficult task of being both a master and an apprentice. To think about an education that really has an effective commitment to the subjectivity of each existing, with the ethical transformation of society and the edification of people. Finally, the present work evokes the need to think about an education that has as its main objective the construction of authenticity and, consequently, the development of a critical, ethical and political conscience of people, allowing them to understand the possibility they have to change the directions of society and thus create culture.

Las descripciones encontradas en la literatura brasileña sobre cómo las poblaciones rurales se organizaban para obtener alimentos, y así sus formas de vida, mostraron una alimentación basada en una economía de subsistencia, que correspondería al cultivo, a la recolección y a la caza. Esa dieta cambió con el avance de la agroindustrialización y de todos los campos que ella movilizó, ganando la atención de los investigadores que se enfocan en sus resistencias y modificaciones. La reemergencia de productos “de la tierra” y de la producción para el autoconsumo como estrategia de seguridad alimenticia y de reproducción familiar ya está en evidencia desde hace mucho. Esta tésis se desarrolla en este contexto, cuyo objetivo es analizar sociológicamente cómo los agricultores se mueven entre la producción y el consumo de alimentos. Con base en la sociología reflexiva de Bourdieu y su metodología cualitativa, la investigación de campo se hizo en Vale do Paraíba (SP) a través de revisión de literatura, observación etnográfica, entrevistas semiestructuradas y consultas a bases de datos secundarias. El análisis permitió concluir que las estrategias de producción y consumo de alimentos de los agentes rurales se ubican entre múltiples variables, enfatizando el contexto histórico local, la estructura sociopolítica, la composición del capital y de la familia, lo que permite afirmar que las opciones productivas no se limitan al ámbito económico, como tampoco las elecciones alimentarias no son puramente individuales, pues se mueven entre los límites del Campo de posibilidades de las familias, al igual que se mueven entre los espacios sociales como productores/consumidores.

Thaumatin-like Proteins (TLP) are members of the Pathogenesis-Related Proteins family 5 (PR-5), and are present in fungi, plants and invertebrates. In plants, these proteins are involved both in the host’s defense, often associated with antifungal properties, and in the regulation of physiological processes, such as floration or fruit maturation. Maqui (Aristotelia chilensis) is a plant native to South America and intimately related to Chile, being used in the food industry and traditional medicine of the chilean culture. Lately, this plant has received the title of “Superfruit” because of its high anthocyanin content. Since this is a species that has recently gained the spotlight, the prospect for the biotechnological potential of its proteins is still limited. Therefore, this work consisted in the identification, heterologous expression and activity assays of TLP from Maqui. From the transcriptome of the plant cultivated in Temporary Immersion Bioreactors, four sequences were identified, of which two were obtained by cDNA amplification. These were cloned in the expression vector pPICZɑA for the recombinant production in Pichia pastoris expression system. The purified proteins were submitted to assays of β-1,3-Glucanase, inhibition of fungal hyphae growth, osmotic stress tolerance and permeabilization of yeast plasmatic membrane. The results suggest that the TLP from Maqui are capable of hydrolyzing β-glucans and also able to permeabilize Pichia pastoris plasmatic membrane, although they did not show any inhibition on the growth of fungal hyphae or increased the host’s osmotic stress tolerance.
