Pretende-se verificar: (i) se as empresas estatais estão sujeitas ao controle concorrencial de condutas exercido pelo CADE, tal como previsto na Lei no 12.529/2011, (ii) se o CADE exerce o controle das condutas unilaterais praticadas pelas empresas estatais tal como previsto na legislação aplicável, (iii) se, e em quais casos, há ou deve haver uma isenção do controle concorrencial sobre as condutas unilaterais das empresas estatais, e (iv) se a metodologia adotada pelo CADE para a análise e o controle de condutas unilaterais das estatais é adequada para identificar e coibir práticas anticompetitivas unilaterais praticadas por empresas estatais. Na primeira parte, foram estudadas as regras que definem a competência do CADE, de forma a delimitar o escopo subjetivo de aplicação da Lei nº 12.529/2011, e foram analisados alguns precedentes do CADE que tratam de sua competência subjetiva, com especial ênfase na aplicação das normas concorrenciais aos entes públicos e na atividade de prestação de serviços públicos. Verificamos que o CADE possui, de fato, competência para controlar as condutas concorrenciais das empresas estatais, mas exerceu esse poder poucas vezes. Em seguida, foram investigadas as possíveis isenções concorrenciais que podem se aplicar às empresas em geral, e às empresas estatais, especificamente. Verificamos que a jurisprudência e doutrina pátria já reconhecem a possibilidade de isenção decorrente da regulação. Analisou-se, também, a possibilidade de isenção das condutas das empresas estatais que sejam voltadas à promoção de políticas públicas, e concluiu-se que, diante do risco de captura da empresa estatal, a isenção não seria adequada. Na segunda parte, apresentamos alguns incentivos que recaem sobre os acionistas e administradores das empresas estatais e que pautam a sua conduta concorrencial. Em seguida, foi analisada a metodologia do CADE para a identificação e o controle das condutas anticompetitivas uniliterais – abuso de posição dominante e prática de preços predatórios, especificamente – para verificar se esta é adequada quando aplicada às empresas estatais. Verificou-se que algumas premissas das quais o CADE parte em sua análise, não são perfeitamente aplicáveis à realidade das empresas estatais / In this paper, we intend to study how CADE carries out antitrust control of unilateral conduct of state-owned enterprises. We intend to verify: (i) whether state-owned enterprises are subject to the antitrust control by CADE, as provided for in Law 12,529 of 2011 (ii) whether CADE exercises this control, (iii) whether and in what cases, there should be an exemption from competitive control of unilateral conduct of state-owned enterprises, and (iv) whether the methodology adopted by CADE for the analysis and control of unilateral conduct by state-owned is adequate to identify and restrain unilateral anticompetitive practices by these companies. In the first part, we examine the rules that define CADE's competence in order to define the subjective scope of Law 12,529 of 2011 and analyze some precedents in which CADE addresses its subjective competence with special emphasis on the application of the competition rules to public entities and public services. We have verified that CADE is indeed competent to control the competitive behavior of state-owned enterprises but has used this power only on rare occasions. Next, we examined the possible competitive exemptions that may apply to companies in general, and to state-owned enterprises, specifically. We have verified that jurisprudence and legal scholars already recognize that regulation may lead to imunity from antitrust control. Furthermore, we addressed if measures taken by of state-owned enterprises that are to promote public policies could be exempted from antitrust control. In the second part, we present some incentives that apply to shareholders and administrators of state-owned enterprises and that will affect the competitive behavior by these firms. Next, we analyzed CADE’s methodology for the identification and control of unliteral anticompetitive conduct – specifically regarding the abuse of dominant position and predatory pricing – to verify if it is adequate when applied to state-owned enterprises. We have verified that the rule of reason applied to verify if the conduct of a dominant firm is abusive, in general, only considers the economic efficiencies of the investigated conduct, and not other possible social and public policies gains that can be legitimately pursued by the state-owned enterprises

Trata-se de dissertação elaborada com o escopo de identificar os efeitos da denúncia unilateral exercida no âmbito dos tipos contratuais instrumentalizados ao processo de distribuição de bens e serviços, a partir do exame das diferenças tipológicas entre cada um deles. Aludidos tipos contratuais correspondem ao de agência, de representação comercial autônoma, de concessão comercial e de franquia, cujos contornos ainda são frutos de intenso debate doutrinário. No ordenamento pátrio, enquanto alguns tipos contratuais não sofreram regulamentação legal, outros tais como o de agência, de representação comercial autônoma, de concessão comercial de veículos autores e de franquia são regulados legislativamente, em fenômeno a que não se assiste em nenhum outro ordenamento da família romano-germânica. A construção da disciplina de tais consequências jurídicas transpassa pela delimitação do âmbito de incidência de cada um desses regimes legais, os quais podem atribuir consequências jurídicas próprias. Os tipos de agência e de representação comercial são equivalentes, o que permite tratá-lo de maneira conjunta, enquanto aqueles de concessão comercial e de franquia, a despeito de apresentarem diferenças relevantes, também podem ser examinados em conjunto pela similar estruturação dos interesses, a despeito de apresentarem peculiares leis regulando-os. Após realizado o exame legislativo e tipológico, examinou-se o impacto do princípio da boa-fé objetiva na determinação dos efeitos desencadeados pela resilição unilateral exercida pelo produtor nos contratos por tempo indeterminado, assim como a influência da previsão do parágrafo único do art. 473 do Código Civil na delimitação desses corolários jurídicos no que tange aos tipos contratuais analisados. Realizado essa investigação, constatou-se que, conquanto existam inúmeros fatores que distanciem, de um lado, os tipos de agência e de representação comercial autônoma e, de outro, de concessão comercial e de franquia, os efeitos desencadeados pela denúncia unilateral são semelhantes, próximos àqueles das relações de duração e nas quais existe estreita confiança. / This dissertation aims to identify the effects of unilateral termination of contractual types exploited under the economic process of distribution of goods and services, from the examination of typological differences between each of these contracts. Alluded contractual types correspond to the agência, representação comercial autônoma, concessão comercial and franquia, which contours are still fruit of intense doctrinal debate. In the Brazilian legal system, while some contractual types suffered no legal regulation, others such as agência, representação comercial autônoma, concessão comercial de veículos automotores and franquia are regulated legislatively, in a phenomenon that it is not witnessed in any other roman-germanic legal system. The construction of the discipline of such legal consequences pierces the scoping incidence of each of these statutory schemes, which may assign legal consequences of their own. It was found that the types of agência and concessão comercial are equivalent, allowing to treat them jointly, while those of concessão comercial and franquia, despite presenting relevant differences, can also be examined jointly as they present a similar structure of interests, despite presenting peculiar laws regulating them. After the legislation and typological examination, it was examined the impact of the principle of good faith in determining the effects triggered by the notice to quit of the producer in contracts for an indefinite period, as well as the determining influence of the sole paragraph of article 473 of the Brazilian Civil Code in the legal definition of these corollaries with respect to the contractual types analyzed. It was found that while there are numerous factors that distance themselves the effects triggered by unilateral withdrawal are similar and close to those of the contracts relational contracts.

Neste trabalho investigamos a existência de uma função de Lyapunov associada a um sistema de tipo gradiente, semigrupos ou processos de evolução. Para isso, um estudo detalhado da teoria de Morse desempenha um papel decisivo. Como principal consequência deste estudo obtemos a estabilidade dos sistemas gradientes sob perturbação (autônoma ou não). A aplicabilidade dos resultados abstratos que aqui discutimos é exemplificada estudando-se sistemas de equações diferenciais em espaços de Banach com acoplamento unilateral / In this work we investigated the existence of a Lyapunov function associated to a gradient-like system, semigroups or evolution processes. For that, a detailed study of Morse theory plays a central role. As the main consequence of this study we obtain the stability of gradient systems under perturbation (autonomous or not). The applicability of the abstract results discussed here is exemplified by studying systems of differential equations in Banach spaces with unilateral coupling

För att kunna prestera bra under fysiskt krävande ishockeymatcher krävs det att spelarna harhög maximal benstyrka och en hög explosiv förmåga. Bilaterala knäböj är en erkänd och välspridd övning för att förbättra power och muskelstyrka i benen. Unilaterala knäböj är än mersportspecifika för ishockeyn. Vid en isokinetisk rörelse är hastigheten förutbestämd ochdärmed konstant medan kraften kan förändras under rörelsen. De flesta isokinetiska systemhar varit designade för unilaterala isolerade övningar, men gällande isokinetiskaflerledsövningar så som knäböj tycks det inte finnas någon forskning om i nuläget.Studiens syfte var att undersöka effekten av sex veckors unilateral styrketräning (knäböj),antingen genom traditionell eller genom isokinetisk träning, på power i unilaterala ochbilaterala jump squats och 17.3 m sprinttid på is hos manliga juniorishockeyspelare.20 manliga ishockeyspelare på elitnivå, 18-19 år gamla, delades slumpmässigt in i två olikaträningsgrupper. Den ena gruppen (QG) utförde isokinetiska unilaterala knäböj i 1080Quantum med 110o vinkel i knäleden, medan den andra gruppen (SG) utförde traditionellaunilaterala knäböj i Smithmaskin med 110o vinkel i knäleden. Träningsperioden varade undersex veckor. Båda grupperna genomförde för- och eftertester bestående av sprinttest på is ochpeak power för unilaterala och bilaterala jump squats.QG visar en signifikant förbättring i peak power utfört på två ben (p=0,004). SG visar ensignifikant förbättring i unilaterala knäböj utfört på höger ben (p=0,018). QG hade en tendenstill signifikant förbättring i issprint (p=0,059).Isokinetiska unilaterala knäböj i Smithmaskin med en koncentrisk hastighet på 0,2meter/sekund och en excentrisk hastighet på maximalt 4,0 meter/sekund och en maximalkraftinsats är ett effektivt sätt att förbättra power på två ben och eventuellt också för attförbättra sprinthastigheten vid issprint för ishockeyspelare. Om isokinetiska unilaterala knäböjär en effektivare metod för att förbättra power jämfört med traditionella unilaterala knäböj iSmithmaskin med maximal hastighet är det svårt att dra slutsatser om från denna studiesresultat. / Ice-hockey are physically demanding. To be able to perform during a game it is required thatthe players have a high maximum leg strength and power. A bilateral squat is a valid and widespread exercise for improving muscle strength and power in the legs. Even more specific forice-hockey is the unilateral squat. During an isokinetic movement the velocity is pre-set andtherefore constant, while the force can be altered during the movement. Most isokineticsystems have been designed for unilateral training, but in terms of isokinetic multi-jointexercises, such as the squat, there seems to be no research until this day.The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of six weeks unilateral strength training(squat), either through traditional or isokinetic training, on power-output and 17.3 m sprinttime on ice among male junior ice-hockey players.20 elite male ice-hockey players, 18-19 years of age, was randomly divided in two differenttraining groups. One group (QG) did isokinetic unilateral squats in 1080 Quantum, with anangle of 110o degrees in the knee joint. The other group (SG) did traditional unilateral squatsin a Smith-machine, also with an angle of 110o degrees in the knee joint. The period oftraining was set to six weeks. Both groups participated in pre- and post-tests consisting ofsprint on ice and peak power in unilateral and bilateral jump squats.A significant improvement was seen with QG in peak power performed on both legs(p=0,004). SG had a significant improvement in unilateral squat performed on the right leg(p=0,018). A tendency to significant improvement was seen with QG in the ice-sprint(p=0,059).Isokinetic unilateral squat in a Smith-machine with a concentric velocity set to 0,2m/sec andan eccentric velocity set to 4,0m/sec with a maximum force is an effective exercise toimprove power-output on two legs, perhaps also to improve sprint ability on ice, among icehockeyplayers. It is difficult to draw conclusion about the results from this study whetherisokinetic unilateral squats is an effective method to improve the power compared totraditional unilateral squats in a Smith-machine with maximum speed.

Bibliography / Thesis (LLM (Public Law))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Traditionally, the common law rule as interpreted by South African case law required that mutual consent be obtained in order to relocate a specified servitude of right of way. Since the Linvestment judgment, the legal position pertaining to the unilateral relocation of a specified servitude of right of way is that the location of an existing specified servitude of right of way may be altered unilaterally by the owner of the servient tenement. Unilateral relocation of a specified servitude of right of way will only be allowed if strict requirements are met, namely that the servient owner will be materially inconvenienced in the use of his property if the status quo is maintained; that the relocation will not prejudice the owner of the dominant tenement; and that the servient owner pays all costs incurred in the relocation of the servitude. In order to justify the departure from the common law, the court in Linvestment relied on historical argument, comparative law, and policy arguments to reach the conclusion that a servitude may be relocated unilaterally if it is in the interest of fairness, equity and justice. The court relied on section 173 of the Constitution, which entitles the courts to develop the common law. This decision of the Supreme Court of Appeal has far-reaching implications. A servitude is a limited real right to the property of another person which grants the holder of that right specific entitlements. South African law requires that registration in the deeds registry take place in terms of section 63(1) of the Deeds Registries Act 47 of 1937 as soon as a limited real right in immovable property is created or transferred. Once the servitude is registered, it will be enforceable against the owner of the servient tenement and all his successors in title. When the servient owner is allowed to relocate the servitude unilaterally, it will have the effect of undermining the limited real right that the dominant owner holds in the property in question. This thesis evaluates the extent to which the courts may change common law principles on the basis of fairness, justice and equity. The conclusion is that the policy grounds on which the court based its decision are convincing, as the law cannot remain rigid and needs to be continually changed in order to meet changing conditions. However, the comparative and historical reasons provided for the decision are insubstantial and unconvincing. The thesis points out that there are no historical grounds for the decision, but that more extensive and contextual comparative research does support the decision. This thesis considers the constitutional implications of a flexible legal approach to the unilateral relocation of a specified servitude of right of way and concludes that an approach that allows for unilateral relocation will not amount to an expropriation and will not establish an arbitrary deprivation either, provided that the requirements set out in the decision are applied strictly and that a court order is required for the relocation. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die tradisionele gemeenregtiglike beginsel rakende die verlegging van 'n gespesifiseerde reg van weg het vereis dat wannneer 'n roete eers vasgestel is, die eienaar van die dienende erf dit nie mag verander nie tensy hy toestemming verkry het van die eienaar van die heersende erf. Sedert die uitspraak in Linvestment, is die regsposisie dat die eienaar van die dienende erf wel die ligging van 'n serwituut eensydig mag verander. Die eienaar van die dienende erf sal slegs gemagtig wees om die servituut te verskuif onder omstandighede waar die huidige ligging van die serwituut wesenlike materiële nadeel vir hom meebring, die verskuiwing van die serwituut geen nadeel vir die eienaar van die heersende erf sal veroorsaak nie en mits die eienaar van die dienende erf die kostes wat verband hou met die verskuiwing van die serwituut sal dra. Die hof het op historiese, regsvergelykende en beleidsoorwegings gesteun om die gevolgtrekking te staaf dat 'n serwituut verkuif kan word, selfs al is dit teen die wens van die eienaar van die heersende erf. Die hof het ook beslis dat die howe die inherente bevoegdheid het om die gemenereg te ontwikkel ingevolge artikel 173 van die Grondwet. Die beslissing het verreikende implikasies. 'n Serwituut is 'n beperkte saaklike reg op die saak van iemand anders wat aan die reghebbende bepaalde genots- en gebruiksbevoegdhede ten aansien van daardie saak verleen. Artikel 63(1) van die Registrasie van Aktes Wet 47 van 1937 vereis dat 'n beperkte saaklike reg ten aansien van onroerende goedere geregistreer moet word sodra 'n beperkte saaklike reg gevestig word. Indien die serwituut geregistreer word, sal dit afdwingbaar wees teen die eienaar van die dienende erf asook sy regsopvolgers. Indien die genoemde eienaar gemagtig is om die serwituut eensydiglik te verskuif, sal dit inbreuk maak op die eienaar van die heersende erf se beperkte saaklike regte ten aansien van die dienende erf. Die doel van hierdie tesis is om te evalueer tot watter mate howe daartoe in staat is om die gemenereg te verander op grond van billikheid en geregtigheid. Die gevolgtrekking is dat die hof se beleidsargumente oortuigend is aangesien die reg voortdurend moet verander ten einde te voldoen aan die veranderende omstandighede. Die regsvergelykende en historiese gronde vir die hof se gevolgtrekking is egter onoortuigend. Die tesis illustreer dat daar geen historiese gronde bestaan vir die beslissing nie asook dat meer ekstensiewe en kontekstuele regsvergelykende navorsing wel die hof se beslissing staaf. Hierdie tesis evalueer ook die grondwetlike implikasies van die nuwe reël en kom tot die gevolgtrekking dat die toepassing van 'n benadering ingevolge waarvan die eienaar van „n dienende erf gemagtig word om 'n serwituut eensydig te verskuif, nie 'n onteiening of 'n arbitrêre ontneming teweegbring nie op voorwaarde dat die vereistes soos uiteengesit in die uitspraak aan voldoen word en dat die verkryging van 'n hofbevel 'n moontlike voorvereiste is vir die verskuiwing van 'n serwituut.

Bakgrund: Knäskador är vanligt förekommande bland yngre fysiskt aktiva personer. Ofta skadas flera strukturer samtidigt vilket medför att den mekaniska stabiliteten i knäleden försämras samt att den neuromuskulära funktionen i benet försämras, vilket påverkar den posturala kontrollen samt stabiliteten på knät. För att upptäcka instabilitet behövs mer utmanande och specifika test som Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT). I dagsläget saknas studier gjorda med SEBT på en svensk population. Fysioterapeuter är beroende av tillförlitliga instrument för att kunna göra en korrekt bedömning. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka test-retest reliabiliteten för SEBT samt att undersöka samtidig validitet mellan SEBT och Unilateral Stance test (UST) för personer med knäproblematik.Syftet var dessutom att undersöka hur den posturala kontrollen var för personer i åldrarna 20-30 år med knäproblematik mätt med SEBT och UST. Metod: Studien var gjord med en icke experimentell design som var både deskriptiv och korrelerande. Alla tester gjordes vid ett tillfälle med 5 minuters vila mellan testerna. I studien ingick 30 personer med diagnostiserad alternativt självupplevd knäproblematik i åldern 20-30 år som studerade på Biomedicinskt centrum vid Uppsala Universitet. Resultat: Den posturala kontrollen för testpersonerna (n=30) var uppmätt till god både mätt med både SEBT och UST. Validiteten mellan SEBT och UST var låg r=0,3 (p=0,12). Test-retest reliabiliteten för SEBT var god r=0,74 (p=0.00013). Konklusion: SEBT har en god interbedömarreliabilitet. Korrelationen mellan UST och SEBT var låg. SEBT är ett test som är ett väldigt specifikt test där man behöver både material och tid för utförandet. Det behövs mer studier för att få fram om testet går att användas effektivt på allmänna kliniker som ett utvärderingsinstrument för postural kontroll. Keywords: Postural balance, Dynamic balance, Reliability, Validity, Star excursion balance test (SEBT), Unilateral stance test (UST), knee injury.

Title: Application of new trends beneath the neurophysiological patterns in sports training footballers. Objectives: The main objective of this work is the application of intervention programs based on the neurophysiological patterns of motion and determine their effectiveness. Methods: It is a methodical work, respecting the individual needs of soccer players in sports training. Players club FK Dukla Praha U16 were chosen on the basis of orthopedic disorders followed by a recommendation intervention programs into the training process. Results: We found that soccer players selected after the application of intervention programs in the training process achieved a significant improvement, especially on the muscles, on which the program was targeted . We have verified that the intervention programs in football practice could be applied. On the basis of subjective feelings footballers can say that the players perceive intervention largely as beneficial. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Some tinnitus patients have normal hearing on the conventional audiogram. It has been suggested that the presence of a limited area of damaged outer hair cells (OHCs) with intact inner hair cells, which is not detected on the audiogram, results in unbalanced neural activity between Type I and Type II fibers leading to tinnitus. Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) provided ambiguous data of OHC function in normal-hearing tinnitus patients when compared to non-tinnitus controls. It is known that hearing loss in the extended high frequency (EHF) region may decrease DPOAEs evoked at lower frequencies. Results of EHF audiometry in tinnitus patients are limited. The aim of the study was to evaluate DPOAEs and EHF thresholds in normal-hearing patients reporting unilateral tinnitus in left ear. Thus, each subject acted as their own control. Data were obtained for 25 subjects with bilateral hearing thresholds 3dB. Median audiometric data showed that thresholds in the left ears were significantly higher than those in the right ears at all four EHFs. Mean DPOAE levels of the left ears were lower than those of the right ears in the frequency range above 1 kHz. Additionally, a paired-comparison test of DPOAE levels of each patient’s right and left ear revealed significant differences at 6, and 8 kHz. The results indicate that: 1. OHC impairment in the most basal region reduces contribution to more apically generated DPOAEs; 2. OHC impairment in a limited area, which may be revealed by DPOAEs but not by conventional audiometry, can contribute to tinnitus generation; and 3. patients with unilateral tinnitus and normal hearing on the conventional audiogram are likely to demonstrate hearing loss in the EHF region.
