[pt] Este trabalho consiste na determinação de parâmetros de deformabilidade e resistência do solo do retro-aterro do muro experimental de pneus, localizado em Jacarepaguá (Rio de Janeiro). O muro experimental de pneus possui quatro seções, das quais foram escolhidas duas para realização dos ensaios de campo e para extração dos blocos indeformados. Foram realizados ensaios dilatométricos e pressiométricos no campo, e ensaios de caracterização, adensamento e resistência ao cisalhamento no laboratório. O programa de ensaios de cisalhamento no laboratório consistiu de cisalhamento direto com corpo de prova na umidade natural e submersos, ensaios triaxiais convencionais e ensaios triaxiais com trajetória de tensão especiais. Uma descrição detalhada das metodologias de execução e interpretação dos ensaios está apresentada neste trabalho, juntamente com uma discussão dos resultados obtidos. Em particular, a discussão enfocou os valores de tensões in situ (coeficiente de empuxo k0) e dos módulos de deformabilidade (módulo de Young, coeficiente de Poisson, módulo cisalhante, dentre outros). As características de resistências também foram analisadas, considerando-se o solo com a umidade natural ou na condição de saturação total. Como principais conclusões, pode-se ressaltar que o material compactado apresenta-se como levemente pré- adensado, com valores de OCR menores que 2 e k0 da ordem de 0,68 a 0,70. / [en] This thesis consists of a study of stress-strain-strength behavior of the compacted embankment constructed behind the experimental tire wall located in Jacarepagua (Rio de Janeiro). The experimental wall has four sections with differet characteristics. From these, two were chosen for the field tests and for extraction of undisturbed samples. Dilatometer and pressuremeter were accomplished in the field, together with characterization, consolidation and shear resistance tests in the laboratory. The experimental program in the laboratory consisted of direct shear on specimens with natural moisture content and submerged conditions. Conventional triaxial test and special stress path tests were also performed under drained conditions. Detailed description of the methodology and interpretation of all tests are presented in this work, together with a discussion of the results. In particular, the discussion focussed on the values of in situ stresses (coefficient of lateral stress at rest) and of the stress-strain modulus (Young's modulus, Poisson ratio, shear modulus). The shear strength characteristics were also analyzed, considering both natural humidity and totally saturated specimens. From the most significant conclusions, it can be pointed out that the compacted material was shown to be slightly overconsolidated, with values of OCR smaller than 2 and k0 in of the order of 0,68 to 0,70. The differences between field and laboratory values are also discussed in the thesis. / [es] Este trabajo consiste en la determinación de los parámetros de deformabilidad y resistencia del suelo del terraplenado del muro experimental de neumáticos, localizado en Jacarepaguá (Rio de Janeiro).

This master thesis focuses on actual topic of talent management. The thesis is divided into two parts, theoretic and practical one. The first one covers basic terms of talent management, evaluation, development and motivation, career management and retention of talented employees within company. In order to obtain necessary information secondary data were used. In second part there is an analysis of current state of human resources management in the company. The analysis is based on empiric research which consists of interviews with concerned people in company management and investigation of internal methodical materials. As a next step there is an analysis of employee's satisfaction which was realised through questionnaires. Thank to those data I suggested possible corrective measures to improve level of particular activities of human resources management in order to set up talent management, which is the main goal of my thesis. Based on previous findings and recommendations I also suggested complex solution of talent management's set-up in the company. Final part sums up results and recommendations for the company.

The computing profession in the United States would benefit from an increasingly diverse workforce, specifically a larger female presence, because a more gender-balanced workforce would likely result in better technological solutions to difficulties in many areas of American life. However, to achieve this balance, more women with a solid educational foundation in computing need to enter the computing workplace. Yet a common problem is most colleges and universities offering computer-related degrees have found it challenging to attract females to their programs. Also, the women who begin a computing major have shown a higher tendency than men to leave the major. The combination of these factors has resulted in a low percentage of females graduating with a computing degree, providing one plausible explanation for the current gender imbalance in the computing profession. It is readily apparent that female enrollment and retention must be improved to increase female graduation percentages. Although recruiting women into computing and keeping them in it has been problematic, there are some who decide to pursue a computer-related degree and successfully finish. The study focused on this special group of women who provided their insight into the pursuit and completion of an undergraduate computing degree. It is hoped that the knowledge acquired from this research will inspire and encourage more women to consider the field of computing and to seek an education in it. Also, the information gathered in this study may prove valuable to recruiters, professors, and administrators in computing academia. Recruiters will have a better awareness of the factors that direct women toward computing, which may lead to better recruitment strategies. Having a better awareness of the factors that contribute to persistence will provide professors and administrators with information that can help create better methods of encouraging females to continue rather than leave. The investigation used a sequential explanatory methodology to explore how a woman determined to pursue an undergraduate computing major and to persevere within it until attaining a degree.

Thesis (MPA.) -- University of Limpopo, 2019 / The Limpopo College of nursing had a high vacancy rate of nurse educators. in 2014 only 74 posts out of 147 were filled. The purpose of the study was to identify challenges in recruiting and retaining nurse educators and recommend strategies to deal with the challenges. The qualitative approach was found suitable as the study intended to explore nurse educators‟ experiences and the meaning they attach to recruitment and retention. Nurse educators who have been at the campuses for a period of five years or more were the target population; purposive convenience sampling was used. Thirteen (n=13) nurse educators were interviewed in focus groups, individual interviews were conducted with ten (n=10) heads of department (HOD‟S). Thematic data analysis was used. The findings revealed that to recruit and retain nurse educators; salaries improvement, advertisement of vacated posts, proper physical infrastructure maintenance and adequate equipment provision are the strategies to implement.

Rapporten innehåller inledningsvis en faktadel med allmän information kring temperatursprickor i betong. Här presenteras bl a uppkomsten av fenomenet, vilka typer av sprickor som förekommer och vad ett tvång är. Tanken är att ge läsaren tillräcklig kunskap för att kunna förstå sig på de övriga delarna i rapporten. Resultatet och det huvudsakliga arbetet redovisas i form av tabeller med tillhörande illustrationer där det går att utläsa vilken sprickrisk som förekommer vid flera specifika fall och vilken åtgärd som bör vidtas för att eliminera sprickrisken. Som konstruktör kan du med din egen indata, dvs. dimensioner och temperaturer, följa tabellen och finna resultatet för ditt specifika fall. De konstruktionstyper som presenteras är bottenplatta, stödmur och plattrambro. En tillhörande databas i elektronisk form finns tillgänglig som en bilaga där varje beräknat fall är sparat. Filerna är enkla att modifiera för att göra det möjligt att genomföra ytterliggare beräkningar i de fall tabellerna är otillräckliga. Rapporten innehåller även ett avsnitt med förutsättningar till tabellerna där det går att utläsa arbetsgången och vilka parametrar som har använts. / The initial part of the report contains general information about thermal cracks. This section describes the origin to the cracks, what type of cracks that occurs and the force causing the problem. The major reason with this chapter is to give the reader enough knowledge to understand the rest of the report. The result and the main work are presented in tables with belonging illustrations. Each table contains the risk of cracking that occurs in several specific concrete structures and how to eliminate the risk. The report covers the following three types of structures: baseplate, retaining wall and integral bridge. The constructor can with his/her own dimensions and temperatures simply use the table to find the risk of cracking. A database including all the calculated files for each specific case is attached to the report. The files can easily be modified by the user in case the information in the tables is insufficient. All the precise circumstances and priority in the project are presented in the chapter “Förutsättningar och arbetsgång”.

La presente tesis busca analizar y comparar los dos sistemas de muro de contención más importantes en el Perú: muros de gaviones y muros de suelo reforzado con el sistema terramesh. Para esto, se tomará el proyecto de mejoramiento de la carretera Choropampa-Cospán en la región de Cajamarca, donde se presentan tres tramos críticos debido a los constantes derrumbes y a la inestabilidad de taludes en dichas zonas ocasionado por las pendientes muy pronunciadas que se generarían si no se utilizase muros de contención. Para el diseño de muros de gaviones se utilizó la metodología ASD (Allowable Stress Design), el cual trabaja con un diseño por esfuerzos permisibles y utiliza un único factor de seguridad global; para ello se utilizó el programa Gawacwin. Para el diseño de los muros de suelo reforzado, se utilizó la metodología LRFD (Load And Resistance Factor Design). El cual trabaja con un diseño por la resistencia requerida y utiliza un factor de seguridad para la carga y otro factor de seguridad para la resistencia; para ello se utilizó el programa MSEW. Una vez diseñados ambos sistemas de muro de contención, se procedió a realizar un análisis comparativo técnico, en el cual se revisaron las características más importantes de cada sistema a la hora de la ejecución; y un análisis comparativo económico, en el cual se procedió a realizar un presupuesto referencial de cada uno de los sistemas tomando en cuenta los materiales a utilizar, la mano de obra, el movimiento de tierra y las actividades específicas a realizarse. Una vez obtenido los resultados correspondientes, se extrajo ratios comparativos que nos permitan obtener los costos por metro cuadrado de cada sistema y los costos por metro de altura. Al final de la investigación se concluye que los muros de suelo reforzado son más económicos para alturas mayores a cuatro metros, dando como resultado que en los tramos uno y dos se recomienden usar muros de gaviones, mientras que en el tramo tres se opte por un muro de suelo reforzado. / This thesis analyzes and compares the two most common retaining wall systems in Peru: gabion walls and reinforced soil walls with Terramesh system. For this comparison, the project “improvement of the Choropampa-Cospán road in the region of Cajamarca” was chosen, where there are three critical sections with problems of constant landslides and slope instability caused by slopes very pronounced that would be generated if no retaining walls were used. The design of gabion walls is done with ASD methodology (Allowable Stress Design), which works with allowable stress design and uses a single global safety factor; the Gawacwin program was used to do that design. The design of reinforced soil walls uses LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design) methodology, which works with a design by the required strength and uses a safety factor for loading and another safety factor for resistance; for this the MSEW program was used. Once both systems are designed, we proceeded to perform a technical comparative analysis with the most important features of each system at construction; and an economic comparative analysis using reference budget for each system, where we calculated the cost of the materials used, workers, earthwork and specific activities to be carried out. Once obtained the results, we look for comparative ratios that allow us to get the cost per square meter of each system and the cost per square meter of each height. At the end of the investigation we concluded that the walls of reinforced soil are more economical for heights over four meters, so in the sections one and two are recommended using gabion walls, while in the section three are recommended the construction of reinforced soil retaining wall. / Tesis

El objetivo de la presente investigación consiste en proponer el uso de un muro de defensa ribereña con sistema de drenaje LGD para cumplir con las consideraciones técnicas del terreno y mitigar el impacto económico – social causado por el desborde del río Rímac, en el tramo de estudio desde el Puente Colgante ubicado en la Av. Arequipa hasta el Puente Estela Montti, en la ciudad de Chosica. A lo largo de los años, el asentamiento humano, Clorinda Málaga, que reside próximo al margen del río Rímac ha sido afectada constantemente por el desbordamiento del Río Rímac generando grandes pérdidas humanas y materiales. En la actualidad, la Municipalidad Distrital de Chosica tiene medidas de prevención contra estos fenómenos de inundación, pero son poco eficientes y no generan seguridad, puesto que son soluciones temporales. Para lograr el objetivo planteado, se realizaron los siguientes estudios previos: Evaluación de vulnerabilidad y riesgo; Análisis de riesgos de inundación; Estudio Hidrológico e Hidráulico y Modelación en Software. Luego, se procedió a diseñar y presupuestar muros de defensa ribereña convencionales y no convencional, con la finalidad de evaluarlos en base a su eficiencia, factores técnicos y costo/beneficio. Como resultado, el diseño del muro planteado no es posible de seleccionar para su ejecución, ya que el ancho de su cimentación supera lo permitido por las consideraciones técnicas del terreno. Por ello, se recomienda ejecutar para las zonas críticas del tramo en estudio, un muro de concreto armado (aguas arriba) y muro de concreto ciclópeo (aguas abajo). / The objective of this research is to propose the use of a riverine defense wall with an LGD drainage system to comply with the technical considerations of the land and mitigate the economic - social impact caused by the overflow of the Rímac River, in the stretch of study from the Hanging Bridge located on Av. Arequipa to the Estela Montti Bridge, in the city of Chosica. Over the years, the human settlement, Clorinda Málaga, which resides near the bank of the Rímac River has been constantly affected by the overflowing of the Rímac River, generating great human and material losses. Currently, the District Municipality of Chosica has preventive measures against these flood phenomena, but they are not very efficient and do not generate security, since they are temporary solutions. To achieve the proposed objective, the following previous studies were carried out: Vulnerability and risk assessment; Flood risk analysis; Hydrological and Hydraulic Study and Software Modeling. Then, conventional and unconventional riparian defense walls were designed and budgeted, in order to evaluate them based on their efficiency, technical factors and cost / benefit. As a result, the proposed wall design cannot be selected for its execution, since the width of its foundation exceeds what is allowed by the technical considerations of the terrain. For this reason, it is recommended to execute a reinforced concrete wall (upstream) and cyclopean concrete wall (downstream) for the critical areas of the section under study. / Tesis

Västlänken i Göteborg är ett tunnelprojekt för järnväg som skall byggas under centrala Göteborg. Tunneln byggs genom både berg och lera, projektet kommer att använda sig av ett flertal tekniker och konstruktionslösningar. Västlänken är ett av de första stora infrastrukturprojekt i Sverige där slitsmurar används som permanenta konstruktioner. På uppdrag av Trafikverket har två olika typer av stödmurskonstruktioner undersökts med avseende på deras klimatpåverkan. Konstruktionslösningarna är en temporär spont med tillhörande tunnelvägg och en slitsmur. Slitsmuren används både som en temporär konstruktion under byggskedet och en del i den permanenta tunnelväggen. Slitsmurar har först nyligen blivit godkända att användas som delar av permanenta konstruktioner av Trafikverket. Av denna anledning finns det inte mycket information om konstruktionens klimatpåverkan. Syftet med rapporten är att undersöka klimatpåverkan från de två olika konstruktionslösningarna. Jämförelsen har gjorts med hjälp av livscykelanalyser för att få den mest övergripande analysen. En livscykelanalys (LCA) är ett verktyg för att synliggöra en produkts totala miljöpåverkan under dess livstid. Detta åstadkoms genom att alla de olika delprocesser som krävs för att skapa produkten inventeras och analyseras. LCA har utförts med datorprogrammet SimaPro och databasen Ecoinvent. I SimaPro har båda konstruktionslösningarna modellerats och deras miljöpåverkan sedan beräknats med ReCiPe 2016. Indata till LCA har samlats in från ritningar och diskussioner med experter på området. Resultatet från livscykelanalysen visar att slitsmurarna i detta projekt har större klimatpåverkan än konstruktionslösningen med spont och en platsgjuten betongmur. För slitsmuren står armering samt betong för den största delen av klimatpåverkan och för sponten är det den stora mängden stål som krävs vid de kraftiga dimensionerna. Då en del av konstruktionerna inom projektet ej var färdigprojekterad när denna rapport författades rekommenderas ytterligare studier på ämnet för att validera resultaten / The West Link Project is as tunnel project for the railroad that will be constructed below central Gothenburg. The project is built through clay and solid rock thus making use of several techniques and structural solutions. The West Link Project (Västlänken) is the first major infrastructure project in Sweden where diaphragm walls are used as a part of the permanent structure. Two different structures have been examined on behalf of the Swedish Transport Administration, with regards to their climatic impact. The two structures examined are a temporary sheet pile with a cast-in-place concrete wall that is used as a part of the tunnel wall, and a diaphragm wall. The diaphragm wall is used as an earth retaining wall during the construction stage and as a part of the permanent tunnel wall. Diaphragm walls have just recently been approved as parts of permanent structures by the Swedish Transport Administration. Due to this there isn’t a lot of information available on their climatic impact. The purpose of this paper is to examine the climatic impact of these two different structures. The comparison has been performed by the use of a lifecycle analysis to get the most comprehensive analysis. A lifecycle analysis (LCA) is a tool that helps to get a perspective on a product’s total environmental impact over the course of its lifetime. This is accomplished by doing an inventory of all the different processes involved in its production. For the LCA the computer program SimaPro, and the database Ecoinvent were used. In SimaPro both of the structure have been modelled and their environmental impact has been calculated with ReCiPe 2016.Input for the LCA have been gathered from drawings and communication with experts. The result of the LCA shows that in this project the diaphragm walls have a higher climatic impact than the sheet pile and concrete wall. With regards to the diaphragm wall the majority of its climatic impact is from the large amounts of reinforcement and concrete used. For the sheet pile the steel used to manufacture sheets of the dimensions used in the project is the largest contributing factor. Due to the fact that some of the structures in the project are still being at the design stage at the time of writing further studies are recommended to validate the results.

Bakgrund: Hela vård och omsorgssektorn har idag stor personalbrist och svårigheter att rekrytera personal. Enligt statistik kommer det krävas ökad personal inom vården ända fram till år 2035. Vilket blir en stor utmaning för en bransch som redan idag lider av stora svårigheter att attrahera personal till verksamheterna. För att lyckas med denna utmaning kan en lösning vara att arbeta med sin employer branding strategi för att bli en mer attraktiv arbetsgivare. Ett begrepp som hjälper organisationerna att lättare attrahera rätt personal och behålla befintlig. Något som blir oerhört viktigt för vården att applicera och arbeta med för att möjliggöra förbättringar gentemot personalbristen. Syfte: Studien vill undersöka hur vård och omsorgssektorn ska skapa en mer attraktiv arbetsplats som gör att man kommer till rätta med personalproblemet. Studien vill också jämföra privat och offentlig sektor för att se vad som skiljer dem åt och hur respektive sektor arbetar med employer branding för att attrahera och bibehålla personal. Metod: Studien har använt en kvalitativ metod i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer där fyra anställda på den privata sektorn respektive offentliga har intervjuats. En metod som användes för att få fram likheter och skillnader sektorerna emellan men också få en helhetssyn på vad hela vården behöver göra för att bli mer attraktiv som arbetsgivare. Slutsats: Resultaten i studien påvisade att det är viktigt för båda sektorerna att arbeta med framtagna faktorer för att skapa ett starkt varumärke. Studien visade att ju mer det arbetas med dessa faktorer inom verksamheterna så skapas ett rykte och personal attraheras automatiskt till arbetsplatserna. Studien fann också att chef och ledarskapet har en viktig betydelse för att skapa ett varumärke som får personal att trivas och stanna i verksamheterna. Mellan den privata och offentliga vårdcentralen arbetade ingen specifikt med employer branding som strategi. Men indirekt var de huvudsakliga skillnaderna att privata sektorn erbjöd ett mer öppet arbetsklimat men hade samtidigt större fokus på ekonomin. Den offentliga hade istället mer fokus på patienten men marknadsförde en bättre bild av verksamheten än vad de kunde erbjuda. / Background: The entire care and social care sector today has a large staff shortage and difficulties in recruiting staff. According to statistics, there will be a need for increased personnel in healthcare right up to the year 2035. Which will be a major challenge for an industry that already today suffers from great difficulties in attracting personnel to the operations. To succeed in this challenge, one solution may be to work with your employer branding strategy to become a more attractive employer. A concept that helps organizations more easily attract the right personnel and retain existing ones. Something that will be extremely important for care to apply and work with to enable improvements against the staff shortage. Purpose: The study wants to investigate how the care and social care sector can create a more attractive workplace that allows you to deal with the personnel problem. The study also wants to compare the private and public sector to see what separates them and how each sector works with employer branding to attract and retain staff. Method: The study has used a qualitative method in the form of semi-structured interviews where four employees in the private sector and the public respectively have been interviewed. A method that was used to bring out similarities and differences between the sectors, but also to get a holistic view of what the entire care needs to do to become more attractive as an employer. Conclusion: The results of the study showed that it is important for both sectors to work with developed factors to create a strong brand. The study showed that the more work is done with these factors within the operations, a reputation is created, and personnel are automatically attracted to the workplaces. The study also found that managers and leadership have an important role in creating a brand that makes staff feel comfortable and stay in the business. Between the private and public health center, no one worked specifically with employer branding as a strategy. But indirectly, the main differences were that the private sector offered a more open working climate but at the same time had a greater focus on the economy. The public one instead had more focus on the patient but marketed a better image of the business than what they could offer.
