O Motor de Indução Linear (M.I.L.) vem, de longa data, sendo analisado e utilizado em aplicações normalmente de tração elétrica. No Brasil é estudado por poucas pessoas e o pioneirismo no assunto coube aos Professores Morency Arouca e Délio Pereira Guerrini, nos anos iniciais da década de 70, no Departamento de Engenharia Elétrica na EESC/USP. Assim, utilizando um protótipo construído pelo Professor Guerrini, desenvolveu-se este trabalho com vistas a complementar sua documentação. O trabalho consiste na Modelagem Matemática, Obtenção dos Parâmetros e Simulação Computacional, com algumas constatações experimentais. / The Linear lnduction Motor (L.l.M.) has been analyzed and applied specially in electrical traction. In Brazil, it was studied very well by a few persons, the pioneers of L.I.M. were the Professors Morency Arouca and Délio Pereira Guerrini, in the early 70\'s, at the Department of Electrical Engineering of the EESC/USP. Thus, this work has been developed on top of a reduced model of the L.I.M. that was built by Professor Guerrini. The objective of this work is to continue the analysis of the L.I.M. The work is comprised of three parts: Mathematical Modeling, Obtainment of the Parameters and the Computational Simulation, with some experimental checking.

Des essais ont été implantés en 2007 et 2008 à Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures et à Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue afin de vérifier l'effet de deux doses de potassium (0 et 80 kg K20 ha"1), cinq doses d'azote (0, 50, 100, 150 et 200 kg N ha"1) et quatre dates de récolte sur le rendement en matière sèche et en sucres, la valeur nutritive et l'indice de verse du millet perlé sucré. Il y a eu peu d'effet de la fertilisation potassique. Les rendements en matière sèche, en sucres et la verse ont augmenté avec la fertilisation azotée. À Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures, le rendement maximum en sucres (1,9 Mg ha" ) a été atteint à la quatrième date de récolte avec 78 kg N ha"1, alors qu'à Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, il a été atteint à la troisième date de récolte (2,8 Mg ha"1) avec 90 kg N ha"1. La verse était plus importante en fin de saison. Les récoltes effectuées de la fin août jusqu'à la fin-septembre (2100-2200 unités thermiques maïs) permettent de maximiser le rendement en sucres alors que les récoltes effectuées au début du mois d'août permettent d'obtenir une meilleure valeur nutritive.

The United States has different methods by which it leverages its influence on allies throughout the world. Military-to-military partnerships constitute one of the most effective methods, particularly when the U.S. seeks to influence developing nations or ones that are in the midst of difficult political transitions. However, recent events demonstrate that these mil-to-mil partnerships are not as effective as they should be. This paper seeks to examine one aspect of the mil-to-mil partnership, namely sales of U.S. military equipment through the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program and the complementary Foreign Military Financing (FMF) program, through which the United States provides the funding to finance said purchases. This paper argues that the United States has continually "moved the goalposts" in justifying its FMF outlays and FMS authorizations, to the effect that the United States is dependent on the continuation of the very programs that are designed to be little more than tools that allow the foreign policy establishment to influence its partners. This "strategic drift" in the mil-to-mil relationship as evidenced through the FMS/FMF program is examined in detail in Egypt, with a focus on events that have transpired since longtime President Hosni Mubarak's ouster in February 2011. The paper seeks to demonstrate that when FMS/FMF is tied to external agreements upon which the United States is dependent - whether diplomatic or military - it creates an incentive for planners in both the Departments of Defense and State to resort to self-justifying analyses bearing little resemblance to the original purpose of the FMS/FMF agreements or to the United States' legitimate national interest in a given region. Large scale reforms of the architecture of security assistance, both political and administrative, are unlikely to occur for a variety of reasons that are touched upon in the paper. By looking at the historical, political, and military aspects of security assistance more broadly, the paper argues that if the United States wants to achieve clarity on whether its security assistance programs truly serve the United States' best interests, it will need to do so at lower levels in the relative implementing agencies. / text

This thesis describes distributed simulation of MIL-STD-1553B Serial Data Bus interface and protocol based on the Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware standard. The data bus connects avionics system components and transports information among them in an aircraft. It is important for system designers to be able to evaluate and verify their component interfaces at the design phase. The 1553 serial data bus requires specialized hardware and wiring to operate, thus it is expensive and complex to verify component interfaces. Therefore modeling the bus on commonly available hardware and networking infrastructure is desirable for evaluation and verification of component interfaces. The DDS middleware provides publish-subscribe based communications with a number of QoS (Quality Of Service) attributes. DDS makes it easy to implement distributed systems by providing an abstraction layer over the networking interfaces of the operating systems. This thesis takes the advantage of the DDS middleware to implement a 1553 serial data bus simulation tool. In addition, the tool provides XML based interfaces and scenario definition capabilities, which enable easy and quick testing and validation of component interfaces. Verification of the tool was performed over a case study using a scenario based on the MIL-STD-1760 standard.

Neste estudo, o objetivo é avaliar o programa Mulheres Mil enquanto Política Pública desenvolvida no Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia (IFCE) Campus Iguatu. O Programa Mulheres Mil trás enquanto proposta não somente a qualificação profissional, mas o reconhecimento da importância dessas mulheres em suas famílias e comunidades. Questiona-se, portanto se esse objetivo é de fato conquistado, especificamente no curso de Panificação promovido pelo IFCE - campus Iguatu. Quais mudanças significativas puderam ser percebidas na vida dessas mulheres após o término do curso? Quais alterações se deram como melhoria de renda ou inserção no mercado de trabalho? Houve uma busca de autonomia ou melhoria de autoestima e bem estar devido à profissionalização? A resposta a esses questionamentos surge a partir da percepção do Programa de participantes do Curso de Panificação, ou seja, 50 moradoras do Bairro João Paulo II, cujo perfil pode ser delimitado como mulheres com baixa escolaridade, responsabilidade pela gestão do lar, inclusive, financeira, a maioria inseridas em programas sociais, como o Bolsa Família e que trazem, ainda, em meio a essa realidade, o desejo de aproveitar as oportunidades que surgem. Em relação às mudanças que o programa trouxe para as suas vidas, todas consideram que o impacto foi positivo, principalmente, despertando nelas o desejo de aprender mais e fazer novos cursos. Em relação às egressas, ainda não se teve resultados positivos em relação à inserção no mercado formal de trabalho, a maioria procurou se integrar a novos cursos, e uma delas resolver abrir o próprio negócio. Elas reclamam, em relação ao curso, de uma maior intensificação de aulas práticas, mas, mostram-se satisfeitas com os resultados e reforçam a importância do curso, sob vários aspectos, aprendizagem, reflexão sobre si mesma, a vida, a comunidade, enfim, pode-se sintetizar que os resultados do programa têm gerado o impacto esperado, não eliminando, no entanto, a possibilidade de aprimoramento que sempre existe. / The goal of this study is to evaluate the Mulheres Mil (Thousand Women) program as a Public Policy developed within the Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia (IFCE) [Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology] on the Iguatu Campus. The Mulheres Mil Program brings not only professional qualification as a proposal but also the recognition of the importance of these women in their families and communities. The question therefore is whether this goal is in fact accomplished, specifically in the Bread Making course promoted by the IFCE Iguatu campus. What significant changes could be perceived in the life of these women after the end of the course? What changes happened related to improvement of income or insertion in the work market? Was there a quest for autonomy or improvement of self-esteem and well being due to the professionalization? The answers to these questions arise from the observation of the participants of the Program of the Bread Making Course, that is, 50 women dwellers of the João Paulo II neighborhood, whose profile can be delimited as women of little schooling, responsibility for managing the home, including the financial management, most of them included in social programs such as the Family Grant and who still bring, even in the midst of this reality, the desire to take advantage of the opportunities which arise. With regard to the changes which the program brought into their lives, all of them consider the impact to be positive, mainly, because if awakened in them the desire to learn more and do new courses. With regard to those who finished the course, there still have not been positive results with regard to insertion in the formal work market. Most of them sought to enroll in new courses and one of them opened up her own business. They complained, with regard to the course, that there should be an intensification of the practical classes, but seemed to be satisfied with the results and reiterate the importance of the course in various aspects: learning, reflection about themselves, about life and the community. Finally, one can summarize that the results of the program have generated the expected impact, not eliminating, however, the possibility of improvement which always exists.

A partir do uso de meios reacionais contendo uma mistura de componentes (ligantes ou metais), visou-se a incorporação de diferentes componentes em materiais contendo a mesma estrutura do MIL-101(Cr). Os produtos formados por esta estratégia foram analisados por difração de raios X pelo método de pó, onde se observou que, dependendo da composição do meio reacional, materiais contendo a mesma estrutura do MIL-101(Cr) foram formados. Evidências da incorporação dos diferentes componentes na estrutura dos materiais foram conseguidas pelo uso das espectroscopias nas regiões do infravermelho e ultravioleta e visível. Para os materiais contendo diferentes ligantes, observou-se um grau de incorporação de um dos ligantes substituídos de até aproximadamente 20%, apresentando áreas superficiais da ordem de 2300 mg. Já, para os materiais contendo diferentes metais, obteve-se uma incorporação de Fe(III) de até 17%. Além do mais, neste caso, alguns resultados mostram que há uma homogeneidade da distribuição de ferro nestes materiais. Desta forma, a partir do desenvolvimento deste trabalho, mostrou-se que o método de síntese utilizado foi bastante simples e eficiente para a produção de novos materiais que apresentam a estrutura do MIL-101, mas com superfícies com características e reatividade diferenciadas. / Abstract: This study explores modifications in the process of synthesis of a metal-organic framework known as MIL-101(Cr), formed by chromium(III) trinuclear clusters linked by terephthalate bridges. Through the use of reaction media containing a mixture of components (linkers or metals), we aimed the incorporation of different components in materials presenting MIL-101(Cr) structure. The products obtained from this approach were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, where we could observe that materials isoreticular to MIL-101(Cr) were formed, depending on the composition of reaction medium. From infrared and ultraviolet and visible spectroscopies, the incorporation of the different components in the structures was confirmed. For the materials containing different linkers, we observed incorporation degrees up to 20% for one of the substituted linkers and these materials presented specific surface areas in the order of 2300 mg. For the systems containing different metals, we obtained incorporation degrees up to 17%. Moreover, some results show that iron centers are homogeneously distributed over the structures. In conclusion, we could show that this synthetic approach was very simple and efficient for the formation of novel materials that are isoreticular to MIL-101(Cr), but presenting surfaces with diverse characteristics and reactivity. / Mestrado / Quimica Inorganica / Mestre em Química

Une carte génétique densément peuplée en marqueurs SNP a été construite pour le mil en utilisant une population de 93 individus F2. D’abord, un nouveau protocole de génotypage par séquençage (GBS) impliquant une combinaison d’enzymes de restriction PstI-MspI avec des amorces PCR incluant trois bases sélectives a été utilisé pour obtenir 3 321 marqueurs SNP. Suite à plusieurs procédés de filtration, 314 marqueurs SNP non-redondants distribués sur sept groupes de liaison ont permis de construire une carte couvrant une distance génétique totale de 640 cM avec un intervalle moyen de 2,1 cM entre marqueurs SNP. La taille des groupes de liaison variait considérablement (62 cM à 123 cM). Finalement, 19 marqueurs SSR ont été analysés sur les parents de la population afin de trouver ceux qui étaient polymorphes et ainsi faire le pont entre notre carte et celles rapportées précédemment. Parmi eux, quatre marqueurs SSR étaient polymorphes et ont permis d’établir une correspondance entre quatre groupes de liaison de notre carte et ceux des cartes antérieures. La disponibilité d’une telle carte peut être un atout exploitable pour l’identification de régions associées à certains caractères d’importance agronomique. / A high-density SNP genetic map was constructed for pearl millet using a mapping population of 93 F2 individuals. Firstly, a Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS) protocol involving a combination of restriction enzymes PstI-MspI with PCR primers including three selective bases was used to obtain 3,321 SNP markers. Following several filtration processes, 314 non-redundant SNPs distributed over seven linkage groups were used to build a map covering a total genetic distance of 640 cM with an average interval of 2.1 cM between SNPs. The size of the linkage groups varied considerably (62 cM to 123 cM). Finally, 19 SSR markers were analyzed on the parents of the population in order to find those that were polymorphic and thus bridge the gap between our map and those reported previously. Among them, four SSR markers were polymorphic and have established a correspondence between four linkage groups in our map and previous maps. The availability of such a map may be exploitable for the identification of regions associated to some important agronomic characters.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 18-21, 2004 / Town & Country Resort, San Diego, California / MIL-STD-1553 has served the flight community well. However, in recent years several new high-speed bus standards have emerged that outperform 1553 in various respects such as data throughput and increased address space. During this time, mission requirements - including video and audio - have become more data intensive. Although some of these busses were not initially designed for the avionics industry (such as Ethernet, FireWire, and FibreChannel), they are potentially of interest as high-speed commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions for both set-up and data acquisition. These busses offer not only improved overall system performance, in terms of aggregate sampling rates, but also simplify existing data acquisition system architectures. They require fewer high-bandwidth links which can serve for both set-up and data. This paper examines some of these issues, focusing in particular on IEEE1394, better known as FireWire.
