Este trabalho apresenta a aplicação de uma metodologia para estudos de postos de trabalho com o objetivo de reduzir desperdícios, aplicar melhorias de layout e consequentemente melhora da ergonomia de um posto de trabalho de uma indústria do ramo automotivo, visando o diagnóstico do processo em questão, encontrando assim, oportunidades para melhoria do mesmo. Para realizar este diagnóstico e identificar as melhorias pretendidas foi utilizada a ferramenta de análise de tempo MTM (Methods-Time Measurement), técnicas de balanceamento, ergonomia e estudo de layout. Atualmente há muitas empresas no mundo que utilizam o MTM (Methods-Time Measurement), que é um sistema de tempos pré-determinados. A eliminação dos desperdícios com a finalidade da redução de tempo é necessária para o aumento da produção que será aplicado em 2012, que tem como objetivo a passagem de 29 veículos por hora para 40 veículos por hora na linha de montagem. Para o estudo de caso, foram selecionados três postos, os quais são nomeados segundo suas operações principais. O primeiro deles, Filme CAPOT, compreende a colocação de filme protetor sobre o capot do veículo na saída da linha de montagem. O segundo, Filme TETO, corresponde à colocação do mesmo filme sobre o teto do veículo. Já o Posto ECOM é onde ocorre a liberação do veículo para comercialização. Utilizando a análise de posto com as ferramentas já listadas, foi possível diminuir o tempo necessário ao operador para que mesmo realize suas atividades e assim aumentar a capacidade produtiva da empresa em 48,9%, ou seja, passa-se de 31,1 para 46,3 veículos por hora. A ergonomia do espaço de trabalho teve sua avaliação global modificada nos postos de colocação de filme de proteção no CAPOT e TETO em função da modificação do layout dos postos propiciando aos operadores menores deslocamentos e posturas de trabalho mais ergonômicas que estão abordadas no corpo do trabalho. Temse também o ganho relacionado ao espaço físico, os três postos utilizavam, juntos, 300,9m do prédio da empresa já na situação proposta necessita-se apenas de 142,6m, uma redução de 52,6%. / This paper presents the application of a methodology for studies of work stations in order to reduce waste, implement improvements to layout and consequently improves the ergonomics of a work station at automotive industry, for the diagnosis of the case in question, finding opportunities for improvement. To make this diagnosis and identify the intended improvements was used a toll for analysis of time called MTM (Methods-Time Measurement), balancing techniques, ergonomics and layout study. Currently there are many companies worldwide that use MTM (Methods-Time Measurement), which is a system of predetermined times. The elimination of waste for the purpose of reducing the time is required for the increased production to be applied in 2012, which intends the passage of 29 vehicles per hour for 40 vehicles per hour on the assembly line. For the case study, we selected three stations, which are named according to their main operations. The first, Filme CAPOT, comprising placing protective film on the top of the vehicle off the assembly line. The second Filme TETO corresponds to placing the same film on the ceiling of the vehicle. Finally the station ECOM is where occurs the release of the vehicle for sale. Using the work station analysis with the tools already listed, it was possible to reduce the time required for the operator to perform the same activities and increase the companys production capacity in 48.9%, from 31.1 to 46.3 vehicles per hour. The ergonomics of the workspace had his overall evaluation changed at the placing protective film on CAPOT and TETO stations, because the modifying the layout of the stations enabling operators to smaller displacements and more ergonomic working postures that are addressed in the body of the work. There is also the gain related to the physical space, the three stations used together 300.9 m of the companys building, and after proposed situation they needs only 142.6 m, a decrease of 52.6%.

Resultado da inserção da televisão em uma cadeia criativa multiplataforma, a transmidiação remete ao conjunto de ações por meio das quais conteúdos complementares e/ou associados aos programas televisivos são ofertados em outras mídias, demandando dos seus espectadores um consumo articulado de tudo que lhe é ofertado como parte de estratégias de engajamento. O consumo articulado desses conteúdos distribuídos nas distintas mídias forja novos comportamentos do espectador e institui o que aqui descreveremos como audiência transmídia, um tipo de audiência que não pode ser aferida pelo acompanhamento do consumidor em cada uma das plataformas isoladamente, já sua configuração depende da articulação que este promove entre os conteúdos no ato mesmo do consumo midiático. A postulação dessa audiência transmídia foi apoiada na observação do consumo de telenovelas, o gênero televisual em que mais há maior investimento em ações transmídias na Rede Globo, a principal emissora de televisão do País, razão pela qual é objeto de estudo da presente pesquisa. Com base em levantamento bibliográfico, problematizamos o próprio conceito de audiência, inventariamos e analisamos os métodos de mensuração, apontando seus limites frente a fenômenos ancorados na cultura participativa e indicando a necessidade de incorporação nas ferramentas disponíveis da concepção de uma audiência transmídia. Também apoiamos nosso estudo em uma pesquisa de campo, de caráter exploratório e quantitativo, com 250 pessoas, de 15 a 55 anos e mais, na cidade do Recife, consumidoras de telenovela – e, portanto audiência –, para entendermos como espectadores de distintas faixas etárias estão consumindo a telenovela. Com a conceituação de uma audiência transmídia, a presente pesquisa colabora para os avanços necessários nos métodos de mensuração que orientam os investimentos publicitários e da indústria televisiva, ao mesmo tempo em que oferece uma descrição crítica dos métodos de mensuração adotados no Brasil, tema sobre o qual a bibliografia disponível no Brasil é ainda escassa e dispersa. / The landscape of media convergence and participatory cutlure imposes new modes of production, distribution and reception of televison content, giving rise to phenomena such as transmediation. Result of television insertion in a multiplataform creative chain, transmediation refers to the set of actions through wich complementary content and/or associated with television programs are offered in other media, demanding of its audience an articulated consumption of everything offered as part of strategies for engagement. The articulated consumption of content distributed in different media forges new behaviors of the viewe and establishing what here we describe as transmedia audience, a type of audience that can not be measured by the consumer monitoring on each platform separetely, since its configuration depends on the articulation it promotes between the contents in the same act of media consumption. The postulation of the transmedia audience was supported by the observation of the consumption of telenovelas, the televisual genre in which more there is greater investment in transmedia actions on Rede Globo, the country’s main which is why this is the object of this research. Based on literature, we problematize the concept of audience, inventoried and analyzed the methods of measurement, pointing out its limits against phenomena anchored in the participatory culture and indicating the need to incorporate the available tools designing a transmedia audience. We also support our study in a field research, a exploratory and quantitive research with 250 people, 15 – 55 years old and more, in Recife, telenovela consumers – and therefore audience – to understand how distinct viewes are consuming the telenovela. With the concept of transmedia audience, this research contributes to the necessary advances in measurement methods that drive advertising investments and television industry, while offering a wide inventory of measurement methods, a subject on which the literaure available in Brazil is still scarce and scattered.

När det är mörkt tycker jag om att gå hem. Det är oftast utifrån mina nattliga vandringar jag producerar, samlar och ser samband då jag i ensam tystnad möter nya rum och konstellationer som uppstår och försvinner i  staden. Jag fotograferar till blivande målningar, filmar eller tar objekt från platser för att använda i mitt arbete. Denna text koncentrerar sig främst kring de platser jag ser på, tankar kring dem och hur de överförs till att bli måleri.

The topic of this diploma thesis is an analysis of a process of deformation measure-ments performed during bridge structure load tests and their following evaluation. The aim of this thesis is to describe commonly used methods of measurement, their principles and difficulties, and to find ways of usage in modern methods.

The quantification of assets in terms of a monetary unit is the valuation process, although other measurements, such as physical units, may be relevant in specific circumstances. The valuation of assets is the process of measuring financial attributes (past, present, or future) of assets or aggregations of assets. Since some for of valuation is always necessary in the accounting process, the objectives of valuation are in part the same as the objectives of accounting. The debate over the proper method of valuing assets is not new to the accounting literature, but it has become increasingly intense in recent years. Although several attempts have been made, no one of the methods suggested attend fulIy to alI the needs of users of information of accounting. Thus, using a theoretical approach, this text has the purpose of discussing the objectives of measurement in accounting, the methods used, and other alternative methods, beyond of the advantages, disadvantages and restriction of each method.

This diploma thesis concentrates on relationship between employee satisfaction and usage of new methods in Human Resources Management, particularly coaching and talent management.

The doctoral thesis presents various methods of wind data analysis. Its first part summarizes the undesirable factors that influence the measured wind data. In particular, the effects of anemometer placement with regard to the near-by obstacles are investigated. In addition to the theoretical review, the practical examples of analysis of these effects at the wind mast measurements are demonstrated. The second part is focused on the measure-correlate-predict methods. Two original matrix-type methods are presented. Furthermore, a comparison of accuracy of measure-correlate-predict methods for various types of reference data series, various methods and various configurations of applied methods has been performed. The reanalyzed wind proved to be a suitable source of reference data in most cases. The applicability of surface wind data from meteorological stations depends on the combination of reference and target series, as well as on the homogeneity of involved data. The newly introduced methods proved to be suitable and universal tool for measure-correlate-predict application. The final part of the thesis analyses the wind conditions over the Czech Republic. Besides to the overview of the knowledge of the Czech wind climate, the calculation of the wind map of the Czech Republic is described. The final map was...
