Gerenciamento da rotina de comunicação por meio de projetos: uma experiência na Embrapa.

A necessidade de um planejamento de comunicação adequado às necessidades da empresa, e ao mesmo tempo dinâmico e mutável, foi o que moveu a equipe de comunicação organizacional da Embrapa Suínos e Aves a testar entre 2010 e 2013 um modelo de gerenciamento da rotina de comunicação por meio de projetos. Dividido em três fases, o modelo proporcionou uma melhor organização dos processos internos, a definição de desafios estratégicos e a implantação de indicadores de desempenho representativos dos horizontes almejados pelo setor. O principal resultado apresentado pelo modelo é que se fez da rotina uma ação estratégica e da ação estratégica uma rotina

Time-Resolved Diffusing Wave Spectroscopy for selected photon paths beyond 300 transport mean free paths

This paper is devoted to the theoretical and experimental demonstration of the possibility to perform time-resolved diffusing wave spectroscopy: we successfully registered field fluctuations for selected photon path lengths that can overpass 300 transport mean free paths. Such a performance opens new possibilities for biomedical optics applications.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure

Step Length and Individual Anaerobic Threshold Assessment in Swimming

Anaerobic threshold is widely used for diagnosis of swimming aerobic endurance but the precise incremental protocols step duration for its assessment is controversial. A physiological and biomechanical comparison between intermittent incremental protocols with different step lengths and a maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) test was conducted. 17 swimmers performed 7×200, 300 and 400 m (30 s and 24 h rest between steps and protocols) in front crawl until exhaustion and an MLSS test. The blood lactate concentration values ([La-]) at individual anaerobic threshold were 2.1±0.1, 2.2±0.2 and 1.8±0.1 mmol.l - 1 in the 200, 300 and 400 m protocols (with significant differences between 300 and 400 m tests), and 2.9±1.2 mmol.l - 1 at MLSS (higher than the incremental protocols); all these values are much lower than the traditional 4 mmol.l - 1 value. The velocities at individual anaerobic threshold obtained in incremental protocols were similar (and highly related) to the MLSS, being considerably lower than the velocity at 4 mmol.l - 1. Stroke rate increased and stroke length decreased throughout the different incremental protocols. It was concluded that it is valid to use intermittent incremental protocols of 200 and 300 m lengths to assess the swimming velocity corresponding to individual anaerobic threshold, the progressive protocols tend to underestimate the [La-] at anaerobic threshold assessed by the MLSS test, and swimmers increase velocity through stroke rate increases.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Purity as a witness for initial system-environment correlations in open-system dynamics

We study the dynamics of a two-level atom interacting with a Lorentzian structured reservoir considering initial system-environment correlations. It is shown that under strong system-reservoir coupling the dynamics of purity can determine whether there are initial correlations between system and environment. Moreover, we investigate the interaction of two two-level atoms with the same reservoir. In this case, we show that besides determining if there are initial system-environment correlations, the dynamics of the purity of the atomic system allows the identification of the distinct correlated initial states. In addition, the dynamics of quantum and classical correlations is analyzed.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure

Electronic structure of graphene beyond the linear dispersion regime

Among the many interesting features displayed by graphene, one of the most attractive is the simplicity with which its electronic structure can be described. The study of its physical properties is significantly simplified by the linear dispersion relation of electrons in a narrow range around the Fermi level. Unfortunately, the mathematical simplicity of graphene electrons is only limited to this narrow energy region and is useless when dealing with problems that involve energies outside the linear dispersion part of the spectrum. In this letter we remedy this limitation by deriving a set of closed-form analytical expressions for the real-space single-electron Green function of graphene which are valid across an enormous fraction of the energy spectrum. By extending to a wider energy range the simplicity with which graphene electrons are described, it is now possible to derive more mathematically transparent and insightful expressions for a number of physical properties that involve higher energy scales. The power of this new formalism is illustrated in the case of the magnetic (RKKY) interaction in graphene
