This thesis argues for an approach which goes beyond the conventional urban climate governance view. With engagement in social-technical practices, a more sustainable and inclusive way of transforming the city can be accomplished. One way of doing so is with the offering of the urban living lab as a playground for real-life experiments. With a purposive intervention in an urban socio-technical system, the three- dimensional concept of urban environmental governance, socio-technical experiments and strategic experiments with designed policies can create a more sustainable urban transition. The urban electric vehicle transition is just one example of how these three concepts can be applied. In order to demonstrate the interaction of a sustainable urban transition, an empirical case study was conducted.   This thesis makes a conceptual contribution by engaging with current understanding of urban sustainability transition, using the urban electric vehicle transition as a reference point. The insights of this study extend the theories of the socio-technical system and argue that it is not only about social and technological innovation but how multiple innovations are experimented with and combined in an existing urban context. In addition, the research addresses how this transition is governed on a municipality level and is achieved through a multiple case study approach, analysed through the lens of environmental governance and offers an empirical exploration and develops the theoretical and conceptual framework of the socio-technical system further.

Marine sulfide – bearing sediments that oxidize when in contact with oxygen and leach outelements in high concentrations to small watercourses have been a problem for many years allover the world especially around the Bothnian Bay. The purpose of this study was to furtherinvestigate the sulfur mineralogy present in acid sulfate soils in the area of Luleå, Sweden. Asecondary aim was to see if elements leach out and accumulate in an acid sulfate soil closer tothe recipient. Samples were taken in two profiles (one oxidized and one waterlogged) fromfour sites (sites A-D) and were analyzed for whole rock geochemistry. Two sites were furtherinvestigated for mineralogy in polished samples with an optical microscope, Ramanspectroscopy and SEM-EDS. Each profile consisted of three layers: oxidation zone, transitionzone and reduced zone. The oxidation zone above the groundwater table was light grey withbrown iron hydroxide staining. Parts that lied under the water table were dark grey-black within general strong odor (“rotten eggs”) due to its sulfur content. It was usually straightforwardto distinguish and separate the layers from each other directly in the field, however in somecases pH was needed for confirmation.A general feature of investigated polished samples is the presence of abundant framboidalpyrites that are common in reduced marine sediments. The transition zone was formed in suboxicconditions and this feature is reflected by the mineralogy. Many morphologies of theframboidal pyrite were observed in this layer and signs of both dissolution and formationoccur. In the sample from site C one could observe elemental sulfur in form of large (up to 50μm) euhedral crystals. In the samples with pH<4, no sulfides occur as they have been replacedby jarosite (site B). Site C lacks these sulfur-bearing hydroxides which is thought to be due toa sulfur concentration of <0.2 %. Sulfur shows extensive leaching at most sites but at site B andD1, it accumulates in the transition zone. Elements like cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn)are leached out or are accumulated further down in the profile. Elements that could have beentransported and have accumulated in the waterlogged profiles are Co, Ni, Zn and chromium(Cr) and in some profiles also copper (Cu) and vanadium (V). / Coastal watercourses in Bottenviken: Method development and ecological restoration- A cross-border Swedish-Finnish cooperation project

L'optimisation multidisciplinaire (MDO) à base de gradients est efficace et très utilisée pour le dimensionnement structural d'ailes flexibles. Cependant, dans le contexte de simulations numériques haute-fidélité, le calcul efficace des gradients reste un défi majeur. L'objectif de ce travail est d'étudier les approches les mieux adaptées aux spécificités du calcul de sensibilité des efforts aéroélastiques par rapport à des paramètres structuraux.Deux techniques de calcul de gradient haute-fidélité adaptées aux systèmes aéroélastiques fortement couplés sont proposées. La technique la plus intrusive repose sur les formulations directe et adjointe qui nécessitent un effort d'implémentation logicielle substantiel. Alternativement, nous proposons une approche découplée et non-intrusive, moins lourde à implémenter et cependant capable de fournir une approximation précise des gradients. Ces deux techniques ont été intégrées dans le logiciel CFD elsA de l'Onera.La précision, l'efficience et l'applicabilité de ces méthodes sont démontrées sur le cas-test avion de transport civil Common Research Model (CRM). Nous résolvons un problème inverse dont l'objectif est de retrouver, en conditions de vol de croisière, une loi cible de vrillage voilure. Ces deux méthodes s'avèrent comparables en matière de précision et de coût. Elles offrent ainsi une souplesse supplémentaire de mise en œuvre en fonction du niveau d'intégration recherché dans le processus MDO. / To improve the structural design of flexible wings, gradient based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) techniques are effective and widely used. However, gradients calculation is not trivial and can be costly when high-fidelity models are considered. Our objective is to study different suitable approaches to compute gradients of aeroelastic loads with respect to structural design parameters.To this end, two high-fidelity aero-structure gradient computation techniques for strongly coupled aeroelastic systems are proposed. The most intrusive technique includes the well-established direct and adjoint formulations that require substantial implementation effort. In contrast, we propose an alternative uncoupled non-intrusive approach easier to implement and yet capable of providing accurate gradients approximations. Both techniques have been implemented in the Onera elsA CFD software.Accuracy, efficiency and applicability of these methods are demonstrated on the civil transport aircraft Common Research Model (CRM) test-case. More specifically, an inverse design problem is set up with the objective of matching an in-flight target twist law distribution. These two methods prove to be comparable in terms of accuracy and cost. Thus they offer additional operational flexibility depending on the level of integration sought in the MDO process.

With ever-increasing numbers of engine actuators to calibrate within increasingly stringent emissions legislation, the engine mapping and calibration task of identifying optimal actuator settings is much more difficult. The aim of this research is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the Multidisciplinary Design Optimisation (MDO) frameworks to optimise the multi-attribute steady state engine calibration optimisation problems. Accordingly, this research is concentrated on two aspects of the steady state engine calibration optimisation: 1) development of a sequential Design of Experiment (DoE) strategy to enhance the steady state engine mapping process, and 2) application of different MDO architectures to optimally calibrate the complex engine applications. The validation of this research is based on two case studies, the mapping and calibration optimisation of a JLR AJ133 Jaguar GDI engine; and calibration optimisation of an EU6 Jaguar passenger car diesel engine. These case studies illustrated that: -The proposed sequential DoE strategy offers a coherent framework for the engine mapping process including Screening, Model Building, and Model Validation sequences. Applying the DoE strategy for the GDI engine case study, the number of required engine test points was reduced by 30 – 50 %. - The MDO optimisation frameworks offer an effective approach for the steady state engine calibration, delivering a considerable fuel economy benefits. For instance, the MDO/ATC calibration solution reduced the fuel consumption over NEDC drive cycle for the GDI engine case study (i.e. with single injection strategy) by 7.11%, and for the diesel engine case study by 2.5%, compared to the benchmark solutions.

Ressalta-se que, quando se fala em uma educação para todos e todas, remete-se à ideia de dar oportunidades aos alunos e alunas, de acesso e permanência na escola, com as mesmas igualdades de condições, respeitando suas singularidades. Ao se abordar a questão das diferenças, não se remete somente às minorias ou às crianças com necessidades especiais. É muito mais amplo, pois todos nós seres humanos somos únicos, portanto diferentes uns dos outros. Adotou-se como aporte teórico a Mobilização, uma categoria da Relação com o Saber (Charlot, 2000) para a realização da pesquisa. Tendo como questão central: Qual o papel do Goalball no processo da mobilização da aprendizagem do aluno com deficiência visual no Ensino de Física? Procurou-se refletir sobre o envolvimento em uma atividade que gere sentido, desejo e prazer no processo de ensino e aprendizagem dos alunos. Foram dois alunos participantes, um aluno que tem sua identidade construída no sexo masculino (matriculado no 3º ano do ensino médio) e outra no sexo feminino (matriculada no 3 ano do ensino médio). Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa do tipo participativa, tendo como instrumentos de coleta de dados as Observações das aulas, Diário de campo, Balanço do Saber Reorganizado, Entrevista Semiestruturada e a Organização dos Dados, baseados na Análise Descritiva, Gil (2008). Nesse contexto, a pesquisa nos expõe que os efeitos produzidos pelo Goalball nas aulas de física nos estudantes foram: a Mobilização, Pesquisar, Relembrar, Aprender mais facilmente, Resignificar e Entender Melhor sobre os fenômenos e conceitos fisicos apresentados. / The aim of the present work was to understand the effects of Goalball practice in mobilizing the learning of phenomena and physical concepts of students with visual impairment in physics classes. It should be emphasized that when it comes to an education for all, it refers to the idea of giving students opportunities for access and permanence in school, with the same equality conditions, respecting their singularities. When addressing the issue of differences, it does not refer only to minorities or children with special needs. It is much broader, because all human beings are unique, therefore different from each other. Mobilization, a category of Relation with Knowledge (Charlot, 2000), was used as a theoretical contribution to the research. Having as a central question: What is the role of Goalball in the process of mobilizing the learning of students with visual impairment in teaching physics ?, sought to reflect on the involvement in an activity that creates meaning, desire and pleasure in the teaching and learning process of the students. There were two students, one male student (enrolled in the second year of high school) and the other female (enrolled in the third year of high school). It is a qualitative research of the participatory type, having as data collection instruments the observations of the classes, field diary, reorganized knowledge balance, semistructured interview and the organization of data based on the Descriptive analysis, Gil (2008). In this context, the research was exposed on the effects of Goalball in the physics classes in the students by a Mobilization, Searching, Remembering, Learning more easily, Reinforcing and Improving exercises and articles presented.

Bicycling has many advantages. For example, it emits less noise compared to motor vehicles, it is environmentally friendly, and bicycling, as a means of transport, gives people exercise. To encourage bicycling in Sweden, the Swedish government has promoted policies and proposals on national and local levels. At the same time, several pieces of research on bicycle use in Sweden show that more people are bicycling now than 60 years ago. STRADA’s (Swedish Traffic Accident Data Acquisition) reports also show that most people who are severely injured in traffic are bicyclists, and that most bicycle accidents occur in urban and metropolitan areas.   Stockholm is a European city with a growing population. At the end of 2013 the population were 897 700    and it is predicted to grow by 25 % by 2030. The municipality of Stockholm is working on investment projects for bicyclists with the aim to increase accessibility and road safety such as special road safety measures at intersections that often aim at improving road conditions for both pedestrians and bicyclists, and better maintenance of bicycle paths, both in summers and winters. Critics and different debate articles about bicyclists` safety and accessibility point out that the investments that Stockholm municipality is making are not enough for meeting the growing population, especially for bicyclists.   The aim of this study is to analyse the causes of bicycle accidents in the city of Stockholm. To help answer the research questions stated below, statistics on bicycle accidents were extracted in Excel from Strada and compiled in Excel using the Excel tool PivotTable and Analysis Tool Pak. The questions investigated in the thesis are as follows: when and where are bicyclists most likely to suffer an accident, why does the accident occur, and what causes are behind bicycle accidents at the chosen place of investigation? Five categorisations on the causes of single bicycle accidents were used and these were: operations and maintenance, road design, bicycle interactions, cyclists’ behaviour and conditions, and interaction with other road users.    In addition to the above, a semi-structural qualitative interview was conducted with bicyclists who bicycle in or along the report's area of investigation. The results of this report show that single bicycle accidents in the investigated area have increased between 2010 and 2016, and that many bicyclists are not satisfied with the bicycle infrastructure in Stockholm.

As exigências do cenário mercadológico requerem adaptações nos modelos de trabalho das empresas que visam sobrevivência no longo prazo por meio da satisfação das necessidades de clientes. Nesse contexto, o processo de desenvolvimento de produtos (PDP) é um processo crítico e de crescente importância. Sua alta relevância estratégica para as organizações, devido especialmente às rápidas mudanças nos ambientes de negócios, tem conduzido à necessidade da utilização de equipes multidisciplinares no processo, objetivando maximizar o valor agregado por meio dos conhecimentos específicos dos profissionais envolvidos. Nesse sentido, o conhecimento de mercado, preponderantemente possuído pelas equipes de vendas, é subsídio essencial para o desenvolvimento de novos produtos aderentes ao potencial de mercado. Portanto, a transferência de conhecimento entre os times de maneira colaborativa é fator crítico de sucesso. Assim, o presente trabalho propõe um método que auxilia a diagnosticar a efetividade de transferência de conhecimentos para o trabalho colaborativo entre os setores de desenvolvimento de produto e vendas. O método proposto apoia a identificação dos fluxos de conhecimento entre estas áreas, os tipos de conhecimento compartilhados e ferramentas utilizadas. O trabalho é desenvolvido por meio de uma pesquisa-ação realizada em uma organização do setor de comunicação e mídia. / Current market demands require adaptations in companies’ work models aiming for long-term survival through customer needs satisfaction. In this context, new product development (NPD) is a critical process with increasing importance. The high strategic relevance of the NPD process in organizations, mainly due to the rapid changing environments, led to the need of adopting multidisciplinary teams to maximize the added value through the specific knowledge of the professionals involved. In this sense, market knowledge, which is mostly possessed by sales teams, is an essential subsidy for the development of new products that are adherent to the market potential. Therefore, knowledge transfer between teams working in a collaborative approach is a critical factor of success. Thus, this work proposes a method that assists to diagnose the effectiveness of knowledge transfer for the collaborative work between NPD and sales departments. The proposed method helps to identify knowledge flows between these areas, the types of knowledge to be shared and tools used. This is developed by means of an action research in an organization of the communication and media sector.

O tratamento antineoplásico está associado a efeitos adversos sendo inúmeros na cavidade bucal que podem aumentar a morbidade e mortalidade nos pacientes. O suporte odontológico ao paciente com câncer se faz necessário, porém ainda não é uma realidade em vários centros de tratamento oncológicos. O objetivo do presente estudo foi capacitar as equipes de odontologia e equipe multidisciplinar dos centros oncológicos pediátricos da capital e interior do RS, a fim de gerar conhecimento técnico-científico sobre as complicações bucais do tratamento oncológico para melhorias no manejo do paciente infanto-juvenil com câncer. Foi realizado um curso de capacitação de profissionais da área de saúde no manejo de pacientes em tratamento oncológico com carga horária de 3 horas/aula. Os participantes responderam um questionário pré e pós-aula (19 questões). Foi realizada análise descritiva, teste não paramétrico de Wilcoxon para a avaliação do resultado geral préteste/ pós-teste e o teste não paramétrico de McNemar para avaliação das questões de forma individualizada O nível de significância de 5% de probabilidade ou o p-valor correspondente foi considerado. Foram realizadas 11 capacitações contabilizando na amostra final 270 participantes. Os participantes foram 215 (92,3%) do gênero feminino, principalmente dentistas/estudantes de odontologia (24,5%) e técnicos de enfermagem (23,6%) com experiência de até 5 anos (50,7%). A média de acertos no préteste foi de 9,85 (51,89%) e no pós-teste 14,35 (75,57%) sendo esta diferença estatisticamente significante (p>0.001). O aumento médio de acertos após a realização da intervenção foi de 68,66%. Conclui-se que a capacitação foi eficiente para disseminar e aprofundar os conhecimentos sobre o manejo odontológico do paciente em tratamento oncológico e atingiu os principais centros de referência de tratamento do câncer infanto-juvenil do estado. / The antineoplastic treatment is associated with side effects being several of them observed in the oral cavity contributing for patient’s morbidity and mortality. Oral care in cancer patients is necessary, but it is not yet a reality in several cancer treatment centers. The aim of the present study was to perform a training course to dental and multidisciplinary teams in the pediatric cancer centers in southern Brazil, in order to improve knowledge about oral complications in pediatric and juvenile cancer treatment. The training course for health professionals involved the management of patients undergoing oncological treatment with a 3 hours class. Participants answered a pre and post-test (19 questions). Descriptive analysis, non-parametric Wilcoxon test (for overall pre-test / post-test) and McNemar's non-parametric test (questions individually) were performed. The significance level of 5% probability or the corresponding p-value was considered. Eleven trainings were carried out and involved 270 participants. The sample was composed by 215 (92.3%) female, mainly dentists / dental students (24.5%) and nursing technicians (23.6%) with experience of up to 5 years (50.7%). The mean accuracy in the pre-test was 9.85 (51.89%) and in the post-test was 14.35 (75.57%), and this difference was statistically significant (p> 0.001). The average of correct answers after the intervention was 68.66%. It is concluded that the training was efficient to disseminate and improve the knowledge about the oral care of the patients submitted to cancer treatment. Also, we can reached the main centers of reference for pediatric and juvenile cancer in southern Brazil state.

It is inconceivable for only one person to take care of ill people in a health care. To achieve the aim which is in particular maintenance of the highest life quality of specimens in health or in disease, is important mutual cooperation of professionals in the branch, where every single ensure care for a patient on the basis of his own knowledge and skills. It is about team co-operation, where every single member of the team has his own obligations, but also rights and authority. The term multisiciplinary care means co-operation of more scientific branches. Hemodialysis patients'nursing care is about team of professionals, who are fully involved in satisfying patients' needs. This co-operation enables primarily the unitary communication, reduction of patient's issue analysis, unified and consecutive nursing care, complete documentation and quality evaluation of provided nursing care of these patients. The aim of the dissertation was to chart multidicsiplinary care's issues at hemodialysis, on the basis of available literature. The dissertation is based on theoretically processed topic by the method of documents' content analysis and method of review and synthesis. Information is obtained from domestic but also foreign science books, scientific magazines, and internet sources. Findings from the 42nd international conference EDTNA/ERCA, which topic was Innovation of renal care through multi-professional leadership, which took place in Malmö, Sweden, from 31st of August to 3rd of September 2013, also contributed. The dissertation is divided into three basic chapters. The first part is focused on team characteristic. There are definitions, types, features, building, composition, roles, conflicts within a team and elemental description of multidisciplinary co-operation. The second chapter deals with a history and hemodialysis as a medical extracorporal method. The third, and the broadest section, is focused on multidisciplinary co-operation at the centre of hemodialysis. It is divided into several sub-chapters. In each of them the information descend from general field to concrete needs of hemodialysed patient and continue to the description of each member of a multidisciplinary team. The result is comprehensive view on provision of multidisciplinary care in the centres of hemodialysis. The output of the dissertation is a draft of the nursing care algorithm within the purview of multidisciplinary care at the centres of hemodialysis. Multidisciplinary care is necessary requirement for assumption of effective, high quality and continuous medical and nursing care at all the centres.

A presente dissertação tem como objeto as residências multiprofissionais em saúde, uma modalidade de formação profissional em nível de pós -graduação lato sensu, que se caracteriza segundo as legislações pertinentes como treinamento em serviço em unidades de saúde. O objetivo geral desse estudo se volta para analisar como se constitui os referenciais epistemológicos e ético-políticos que orientam a residência multiprofissional em saúde, de modo a desvelar a relação teoria -prática nesse modelo de formação sob o olhar dos residentes. Além da análise de documentos, a metodologia da pesquisa empírica consistiu na análise dos resultados obtidos com as entrevistas junto aos residentes. Entrevistamos doze residentes participantes do Fórum Nacional de Residentes Multiprofissionais em Saúde (FNRMS), de diferentes regiões do Brasil. A pesquisa aponta para a conformação de um mosaico teórico e empírico nessa modalidade de formação que se traduz no caráter academicista, resultando em uma concepção fragmentária da relação teoria-prática e no distanciamento entre a academia e os serviços de saúde. Aponta, ainda, para a existência do pragmatismo, revelado pelo trabalho no seu sentido pedagógico, na lógica do aprender fazendo, característico dessa formação. Consideramos, por fim, que a residência assume características do trabalho alienado com particularidades do contexto atual da política de saúde e que questão central é a ausência do sentido da práxis nos programas em que se inserem os residentes entrevistados / This work has as object the multidisciplinary residences in health, a form of vocational trai ning at the level of sensu post-graduation, which is characteri zed according to the relevant laws as in-service training in health facilities. The overall objective of this study turns to analyze how is the epistemological frameworks and ethical-political guiding the multidisciplinary residency in health, i n order to reveal the relationship between theory and practice in this training model under the gaze of residents. In addition to document review, the methodology of empirical research consisted i n analyzi ng the results obtained from the interviews with residents. With twelve residents participating in the National multidisciplinary Residents Health Forum (FNRMS), from different regions of Brazil. The research points to the formation of a theoretical and empirical mosaic in this mode of education that translates into academic character, resulti ng in a fragmentary view of the theory-practice relationship and the gap between academia and health services. Also points out to the existence of pragmatism, revealed by the work in its pedagogical sense, the logic of learni ng by doing, characteristic of such traini ng. We believe, fi nally, that the residence assumes characteristics of alienated labor with peculiarities of the current context of health policy and that the central issue is the absence of the sense of praxis in the programs they are part of the interviewed residents
