O presente trabalho tem como objetivo discorrer a respeito dos desdobramentos da operacionalização dos voos da morte na Argentina, durante a última ditadura civil-militar daquele país, entre os anos de 1976 a 1983. É possível afirmar que os voos da morte configuraram, simultaneamente, uma prática de desaparecimento, extermínio e ocultação de cadáveres de opositores políticos em poder do Estado, escolhida, planejada e sistematizada pelos militares que tomaram o poder através do golpe de Estado em 1976. A metodologia empregada nesta prática de desaparecimento variou conforme o tempo e as condições apresentadas nos centros clandestinos de detenção (CCD). Levando-se em consideração esse fato, foi uma opção do presente trabalho debruçar-se mais pormenorizadamente no caso mais emblemático, a ESMA, a Escuela de Mecánica de la Armada, um dos maiores campos de concentração ativos durante o período da ditadura militar. Para as considerações deste trabalho, foram analisados documentos produzidos pelo Judiciário argentino relativos aos julgamentos dos repressores acusados de crimes de lesa-humanidade, assim como testemunhos pessoais de repressores e sobreviventes da ESMA. A prática dos voos da morte e suas consequências são transcendentes ao espaço físico que ocuparam os CCD. Estes desdobramentos ultrapassam inclusive os limites territoriais da própria Argentina, devido ao fato de que através das correntes marítimas do Rio da Prata e do Oceano Atlântico, cadáveres foram levados às praias do Uruguai, nação que também à época vivia sob um regime ditatorial. Além de uma metodologia de desaparecimento, os voos da morte também podem ser entendidos como uma metodologia de ocultação de cadáveres, como permite compreender o caso dos corpos lançados no delta do rio Paraná, na província de Entre Rios, e as diversas testemunhas das aparições e dos lançamentos. Há também o caso dos cadáveres aparecidos na costa brasileira, em abril de 1978, documentados por jornalistas, que levantam suspeitas a respeito da conivência das autoridades brasileiras com a ocultação dos restos mortais das vítimas dos voos da morte. Para as considerações sobre estes desdobramentos, são analisadas fontes testemunhais O entendimento do funcionamento dessa metodologia de desaparecimento e ocultação de cadáveres é fundamental para a compreensão destes desdobramentos citados. / This paper aims to discuss about the developments of the operation called "death flights" in Argentina, during the last civil-military dictatorship in that country between the years 1976 to 1983. It can be said that the “death flights” configured simultaneously, a practice of disappearance, death and concealment of corpses of political opponents by the state. This methodology used in the practice of disappearance varied as time and the conditions in the Clandestine Detention Centers (CCD). Taking into account this fact, it was an option of this work to address in more details the most emblematic case, the ESMA (Escuela de Mecánica de la Armada), one of the largest active concentration camps during the period of military dictatorship. For considerations of this work, documents produced by argentine courts at the time of the trials of repressors accused of crimes against humanity, as well as personal testimonies of repressors and survivors of ESMA were analyzed. The practice of the “death flights” and its consequences transcend the physical space that occupied the CCD. These developments even beyond the boundaries of Argentina itself, due to the fact that through the currents of the Rio de la Plata and the Atlantic Ocean, corpses were taken to the beaches of Uruguay, a nation that also at the time lived under a dictatorial regime. In addition of being a methodology of disappearance, the “death flights” can also be understood as a methodology of concealment of corpses, once is it possible to understand the case of the bodies thrown into the Parana River delta, in the province of Entre Rios, and several witnesses of the apparitions. There is also the case of the corpses appeared on the Brazilian coast, in April 1978, documented by journalists, raising suspicions about the connivance of the Brazilian authorities with the concealment of the remains of victims of the “death flights”. For consideration of these developments, witness sources are analyzed. The understanding of the operations of disappearance methodology and concealment of corpses is essential to understand these developments cited.

<div>Biological dynamics have been studied by many methods. Fluorescence dynamic microscopy and optical coherence tomography provided fundamental understandings of biological systems. However, their high NA optics only represent local characteristics. Biodynamic imaging (BDI) technique implements a low NA optics and acquires the statistical average of Doppler shifts that occurred by dynamic light scattering with biological dynamic subsystems provided globally averaged dynamic characteristics. </div><div>BDI is used for this study to investigate biomedical applications. The chemotherapy efficacy measurement by BDI demonstrated a good agreement between the Doppler spectral phenotypes and the preclinical outcomes. Also, dynamic responses of microbiomes by chemical stimuli demonstrated featured Doppler characteristics. The bacterial infection of epithelial spheroids showed consistent spectral responses and antibiotic-resistant E. coli infection treatment with a sensitive and resistive antibiotic showed a dramatic contrast. Furthermore, the phase-sensitive characteristics of BDI provided a clue to understanding the characteristics of the random process of biological systems. Levy-like heavy-tailed probability density functions are demonstrated and </div><div>the shape changed by infection will be discussed. </div>

The purpose of this study is to find out how editorials in various Swedish newspapers interpreted the ghost flights. The study shows how the phenomenon was interpreted based on defense and security policy. Through text analysis 44 editorial articles from the period 1934-1938 were investigated which showed that the most editorials interpreted ghost flying as military flights. The agenda of swedish liberal and moderate newspapers was to interpret military aviation as a reason for establishing an independent air force and in giving the military greater authority to make security decisions for the country. The Social Democratic agenda in editorials was to downplay loud defense interests. And the communist editorial agenda was more ideologically expressed in countering imperialist and warlike interests. Local Norrland newspapers were more likely to express hopes for greater military efforts for Norrland's sake and the development over time shows that it was the newspaper Norrskensflamman and Aftonbladet, political and ideological antagonists, that were the ones who kept the debate about the ghost flights alive until the outbreak of the Second World War. / <p>Godkänt datum 2020-06-05</p>

The past decades have seen the state of the art in aerospace system design progress from a scope of simple optimization to one including robustness, with the objective of permitting a single system to perform well even in off-nominal future environments. Integrating flexibility, or the capability to easily modify a system after it has been fielded in response to changing environments, into system design represents a further step forward. One challenge in accomplishing this rests in that the decision-maker must consider not only the present system design decision, but also sequential future design and operation decisions. Despite extensive interest in the topic, the state of the art in designing flexibility into aerospace systems, and particularly space systems, tends to be limited to analyses that are qualitative, deterministic, single-objective, and/or limited to consider a single future time period. To address these gaps, this thesis develops a stochastic, multi-objective, and multi-period framework for integrating flexibility into space system design decisions. Central to the framework are five steps. First, system configuration options are identified and costs of switching from one configuration to another are compiled into a cost transition matrix. Second, probabilities that demand on the system will transition from one mission to another are compiled into a mission demand Markov chain. Third, one performance matrix for each design objective is populated to describe how well the identified system configurations perform in each of the identified mission demand environments. The fourth step employs multi-period decision analysis techniques, including Markov decision processes (MDPs) from the field of operations research, to find efficient paths and policies a decision-maker may follow. The final step examines the implications of these paths and policies for the primary goal of informing initial system selection. Overall, this thesis unifies state-centric concepts of flexibility from economics and engineering literature with sequential decision-making techniques from operations research. The end objective of this thesis' framework and its supporting analytic and computational tools is to enable selection of the next-generation space systems today, tailored to decision-maker budget and performance preferences, that will be best able to adapt and perform in a future of changing environments and requirements. Following extensive theoretical development, the framework and its steps are applied to space system planning problems of (1) DARPA-motivated multiple- or distributed-payload satellite selection and (2) NASA human space exploration architecture selection.

El siguiente trabajo de investigación se realizó en la bajada de Armendáriz, acantilado de la Costa Verde, distrito de Miraflores, provincia de Lima, Perú. En este se propone la creación de una metodología de control topográfico en la zona anteriormente mencionada, esto debido a que se presentan constantes deslizamientos de rocas por diversos factores como la erosión marina y el tránsito vehicular cercano. Usando información del Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN), información brindada por profesionales en el área e información obtenida del vuelo fotogramétrico con dron Mavic 2 Pro realizado, se elaboró la comparación de perfiles longitudinales de los años 2019, 2020 y 2021 en una zona del talud que sufre deslizamientos de manera constante. Con el fin de mantener la precisión y coherencia de los resultados, se procesó la información obtenida para lograr las mismas características entre los planos de curvas de nivel que sirvieron para la realización de los cálculos y el posterior análisis. Entre los principales resultados obtenidos se determinó que la parte superior del talud se redujo 1.30 m durante los años evaluados, la parte media una reducción de 0.50 m y la parte inferior un incremento de 1.20 m. Con los resultados mencionados anteriormente se determinó la tendencia a sufrir derrumbes que posee la zona del talud evaluada y se propuso la realización de vuelos fotogramétricos anuales para el seguimiento del comportamiento del talud con el fin de implementar obras de ingeniería de contención en las zonas vulnerables. / The following research work was carried out in the Bajada de Armendariz, cliff of the Costa Verde, district of Miraflores, province of Lima, Peru. In this, the creation of a topographic control methodology in the aforementioned area is proposed, due to the fact that there are constant rock slides due to various factors such as marine erosion and nearby vehicular traffic. Using information from the National Geographic Institute (IGN), information provided by professionals in the area and information obtained from the photogrammetric flight with a Mavic 2 Pro drone carried out. the comparison of longitudinal profiles of the years 2019, 2020 and 2021 in an area of ​​the slope was elaborated that suffers landslides constantly. In order to maintain the precision and coherence of the results, the information obtained was processed to achieve the same characteristics between the contour planes that were used to carry out the calculations and the subsequent analysis. Among the main results obtained, it was determined that the upper part of the slope decreased 1.30 m during the evaluated years, the middle part a reduction of 0.50 m and the lower part an increase of 1.20 m. With the aforementioned results, the tendency to collapse in the area of ​​the evaluated slope was determined and it was proposed to carry out annual photogrammetric flights to monitor the behavior of the slope in order to implement containment engineering works in vulnerable areas. / Trabajo de investigación

This dissertation deals with international transport law and looks at the development of bilateral air service agreements governing international scheduled flights from their inception after the Chicago Conference of 1944 until the present day. The Chicago Conference left a legacy of separation in airline services. Scheduled and nonscheduled flights came into existence and bilateral agreements are needed to regulate international scheduled services. The relationship between the state and its designated airline forms the pivot of the bilateral relationship. However, the aviation relationship between state and airline and between states inter se face challenges as globalisation and development take place in the air transport industry. New methods of cooperation now exist which need to be adapted to suit the needs of individual countries and airlines. South Africa has accepted the challenges of development and undertaken modern methods of cooperation such as code-sharing. / Law / LL.M.
