This dissertation reviews this regional promotional policy through several perspectives with the purpose of shedding some light onto performed stages and the mechanisms applied in its evolution, pitching it against the legal security, an indispensable element for a Law-abiding Democratic State. The study starts off from a rereading of the theories underpinning the conceptual evolution of development both from the interdisciplinary standpoint of the economy, the history and of the economic law giving priority to those which directly or indirectly have influenced the conceptual basis of the Manaus Industrial Hub and showing the new dimensions, highlighting the issue of socioenvironmental sustainability, intrinsically applicable to the Amazon reality. As a whole, the main phases of the national development as sequenced starting from the thirties of the XX century the when the Brazilian State began to adopt developmental strategies until these days, emphasizing political and economic aspects, which have interfered in the readequability of the original proposal and have produced its current conformation, with a brief historical description the public policies, which have intended to interfere in the economic and industrial performance of the Amazon space resulting in the creation of the Manaus Free Trade Zone (ZFM) and of the Manaus Industrial Hub (PIM). The text puts forward some reflections on its main phases, contradictions, difficulties and perspectives and the repercussions resulting from the regulatory alterations at all levels, to, at the end, promote a study of the main constitutional and tributary focuses of the issue giving priority to the theme of legal security, probing into its real existence and effectiveness. / O estudo do modelo de desenvolvimento do Polo Industrial de Manaus reveste-se de importância pela sua representatividade para o Estado do Amazonas e repercussão no contexto da região Amazônica. A presente dissertação analisa essa política de promoção regional sob várias vertentes com a finalidade de compreender os estágios empreendidos e os mecanismos aplicados na sua evolução, confrontando-os com a segurança jurídica, elemento indispensável no Estado Democrático de Direito. O estudo parte da releitura de teorias que embasaram a evolução conceitual do desenvolvimento, tanto pela ótica interdisciplinar da economia, da história e do direito econômico, priorizando aquelas que direta ou indiretamente influenciaram a base conceitual do Polo Industrial de Manaus e apresentando as novas dimensões, com destaque para a questão da sustentabilidade socioambiental, intrinsecamente aplicável à realidade amazônica. No conjunto, são seqüenciadas as principais fases do desenvolvimento nacional, partindo dos anos trinta do século XX quando o Estado brasileiro passou a adotar estratégias desenvolvimentistas até os dias atuais, ressaltando aspectos políticos e econômicos que interferiram na readequação da proposta original e produziram a sua atual conformação, com breve relato histórico as políticas públicas que se propuseram a interferir no desenvolvimento econômico e industrial do espaço amazônico resultando na criação da Zona Franca de Manaus (ZFM) e do Polo Industrial de Manaus (PIM). O texto traz reflexões sobre suas principais fases, contradições, entraves e perspectivas e as repercussões decorrentes das alterações normativas em todos os níveis, para ao final promover um estudo dos principais enfoques constitucionais e tributários da questão, com prioridade para o tema da segurança jurídica, perquirindo sobre a sua real existência e eficácia.

In this thesis, we introduce the Partitioning-Hub Location-Routing problem (PHLRP), which can be classified as a variant of the hub location problem.<p>PHLRP consists of partitioning a network into sub-networks, locating at least one hub in each subnetwork and routing the traffic within the network such that all inter-subnetwork traffic is routed through the hubs and all intra-subnetwork traffic stays within the sub-networks all the way from the source to the destination. Obviously, besides the hub location component, PHLRP also involves a graph partitioning component and a routing component. PHLRP finds applications in the strategic planning or deployment of the Intermediate System-Intermediate System (ISIS) Internet Protocol networks and the Less-than-truck load freight distribution systems.<p><p>First, we introduce three IP formulations for solving PHLRP. The hub location component and the graph partitioning components of PHLRP are<p>modeled in the same way in all three formulations. More precisely, the hub location component is represented by the p-median variables and constraints; and the graph partitioning component is represented by the size-constrained graph partitioning variables and constraints. The formulations differ from each other in the way the peculiar routing requirements of PHLRP are modeled.<p><p>We then carry out analytical and empirical comparisons of the three IP<p>formulations. Our thorough analysis reveals that one of the formulations is<p>provably the tightest of the three formulations. We also show analytically that the LP relaxations of the other two formulations do not dominate each other. On the other hand, our empirical comparison in a standard branch-and-cut framework that is provided by CPLEX shows that not the tightest but the most compact of the three formulations yield the best performance in terms of solution time. <p><p>From this point on, based on the insight gained from detailed analysis of the formulations, we focus our attention on a common sub-problem of the three formulations: the so-called size-constrained graph partitioning problem. We carry out a detailed polyhedral analysis of this problem. The main benefit from this polyhedral analysis is that the facets we identify for the size-constrained graph partitioning problem constitute strong valid inequalities for PHLRP.<p><p>And finally, we wrap up our efforts for solving PHLRP. Namely, we present<p>the results of our computational experiments, in which we employ some facets<p>of the size-constrained graph partitioning polytope in a branch-and-cut algorithm for solving PHLRP. Our experiments show that our approach brings<p>significant improvements to the solution time of PHLRP when compared with<p>the default branch-and-cut solver of XPress. <p><p>/<p><p>Dans cette thèse, nous introduisons le problème Partitionnement-Location des Hubs et Acheminement (PLHA), une variante du problème de location de hubs. Le problème PLHA partitionne un réseau afin d'obtenir des sous-réseaux, localise au moins un hub dans chaque sous-réseau et achemine le traffic dans le réseau de la maniére suivante :le traffic entre deux<p>sous-réseaux distincts doit être éxpedié au travers des hubs tandis que le traffic entre deux noeuds d'un même sous-réseau ne doit pas sortir de celui-ci. PLHA possède des applications dans le planning stratégique, ou déploiement, d'un certain protocole de communication utilisé<p>dans l'Internet, Intermediate System - Intermediate System, ainsi que dans la distribution des frets.<p><p>Premièrement, nous préesentons trois formulations linéaires en variables entières pour résoudre PLHA. Le partitionnement du graphe et la localisation des hubs sont modélisées de la même maniére dans les trois formulations. Ces formulations diffèrent les unes des autres dans la maniére dont l'acheminement du traffic est traité.<p><p>Deuxièmement, nous présentons des comparaisons analytiques et empiriques des trois formulations. Notre comparaison analytique démontre que l'une des formulations est plus forte que les autres. Néanmoins, la comparaison empirique des formulations, via le solveur CPLEX, montre que la formulation la plus compacte (mais pas la plus forte) obtient les meilleures performances en termes de temps de résolution du problème.<p><p>Ensuite, nous nous concentrons sur un sous-problème, à savoir, le partitionnement des graphes sous contrainte de taille. Nous étudions le polytope des solutions réalisables de ce sous-problème. Les facettes de ce polytope constituent des inégalités valides fortes pour<p>PLHA et peuvent être utilisées dans un algorithme de branch-and-cut pour résoudre PLHA.<p><p>Finalement, nous présentons les résultats d'un algorithme de branch-and-cut que nous avons développé pour résoudre PLHA. Les résultats démontrent que la performance de notre méthode est meilleure que celle de l'algorithme branch-and-cut d'Xpress.<p> / Doctorat en Sciences / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

This Master’s thesis is focused on the suspension of the front wheel, more accurately for specific part, upright. It describes the basic requirements for construction, distribution of uprights, their method of production and types of materials used. It briefly mentions topology optimization and its two optimization methods. Also deals with vehicle dynamics for driving conditions – standing vehicle, braking and cornering. In the practical part, the work is focused on determining the load effects on the upright during the aforementioned driving conditions using MBS software. At the end of the work, FEM stress and deformation analyses are performed for loading on the wheel side and on the suspension side, which are then compared and evaluated.

The master thesis focuses on the design and implementation of data collection from production using a PLC into an SQL database located in the cloud and subsequent visualization.

It deals with securing data transfer from the line to the cloud using the TLS protocol. The individual cloud services and their possibilities for data collection are described here. The work deals with the possibilities of data visualization using existing open source solutions and the differences between them. I describe the possibilities of modifying the open source environment of the Grafany project. Real dashboards from production are presented. The data collection system was deployed in two plants for testing.

The aim of this work was to create a design of a gear coupling for railway vehicle application. The work presents a comprehensive view of this issue. First of all, a brief theoretical introduction to the issue is made. The practical part follows, where the design of the whole coupling and especially the newly designed solutions are described in detail. The strength analysis performed deal with the key components that are necessary to ensure safe operation. These analyses can be applied not only for this particular case, but also to gear couplings of different designs, because in principle these calculations do not differ much. In the last chapter, which deals with the dynamic model, all the theoretical assumptions are verified, especially the coupling movements and the applied loads. If the reader deals with the issue of gear couplings, not only in the railway industry, this work presents a comprehensive view of this component. The designed coupling and all performed simulations are really usable in operation.

Under de senaste åren har finanssektorn förändrats och en bidragande faktor är teknisk innovation. Teknisk innovation kan utveckla tillhandahållandet av finansiella tjänster som finansiella aktörer såsom banker erbjuder till sina kunder. En jurisdiktion kan främja utvecklingen av finansiella tjänster, antingen genom en finansiell sandlåda eller en innovationshubb. En finansiell sandlåda är en säker miljö där banker och bolag vars verksamhet endast består av teknisk innovation (FinTech-bolag), kan testa sina oreglerade affärsmodeller. Testutrymmet kontrolleras av en tillsynsmyndighet. För närvarande har över 50 jurisdiktioner upprättat en finansiell sandlåda och flera europeiska länder har redan en sandlåda i drift eller överväger att införa en. Flera olika EU-institut, som exempelvis Europeiska kommissionen och Europaparlamentet, är positiva för att införa en reglering av finansiella sandlådor på EU-nivå. Finansiella sandlådor är endast utformade som nationella finansiella sandlådor. Syftet med denna masteruppsats är att utreda huruvida EU behöver reglera finansiella sandlådor och i så fall om regelverket bör antas som ett direktiv eller en förordning. Slutsatsen av denna uppsats är att finansiella sandlådor behöver regleras även om vissa medlemsstater inte vill upprätta en egen nationell sandlåda. En anledning till varför finansiella sandlådor är behövliga i EU är för att de främjar konkurrensen mellan olika finansiella aktörer. Dessutom är finansiella sandlådor ett tillfälle för nya marknadsaktörer såsom FinTech-bolag att växa. Väljer EU att inte reglera finansiella sandlådor kommer det att hämma den fria rörligheten för finansiella tjänster. Den mest effektiva lösningen för EU hade varit att anta ett direktiv om harmoniserade nationella finansiella sandlådor. Genom att anta regelverket som ett direktiv får medlemsländerna själva bestämma vilka bestämmelser som ska implementeras i den nationella lagstiftningen. / In recent times, the financial market has changed and a contributing factor is technological innovation. Technological innovation can develop the provision of financial services which companies such as banks offers their consumers. There are two ways a jurisdiction can promote the development of financial services; either through a regulatory sandbox or an innovation hub. A regulatory sandbox is a safe environment where banks and companies who only works with technological innovation (FinTech-companies) can test their unregulated business models. The environment is controlled and monitored by a supervisory authority. Regulatory sandboxes are available in more than 50 different jurisdictions, and an increasing number of European countries are either thinking of establishing one or have already done it.   Within the European Union, some organisations such as the European Commission and the European Parliament have expressed their willingness to regulate regulatory sandboxes at Union level. For now, sandboxes can only be set up as a national regulatory sandbox. The purpose of this master’s thesis is to investigate whether the Union needs to regulate regulatory sandboxes and if so, should the Union introduce a directive or a regulation on harmonized national regulatory sandboxes.    The investigation of this thesis shows that regulatory sandboxes are needed even though some Member States are unwilling to establish one. Regulatory sandboxes are needed in the Union because it furthers the competition between companies offering financial services. Regulatory sandboxes also help new entrants such as FinTech-companies to grow. If the Union does not regulate regulatory sandboxes, it will hinder the free movement of services. The best outcome for regulation, would be if the Union adopted a directive on harmonized national regulatory sandboxes. The regulation should be adopted as a directive because it facilitates Member States in determining which provisions should be implemented in national legislation.
