    Monografia (graduação)-Universidade de Brasília, Instituto de Letras, Departamento de Teoria Literária e Literatura, 2014.O Brasil passou por diversas transformações no século XX, econômicas, sociais, nas artes, isso tudo por conta dos avanços na indústria e no comércio, com a urbanização e a constituição de classes sociais antagônicas. Com isso, o país ingressava nessa modernização com dificuldades e a cidade de São Paulo era a porta de entrada dessa modernização atrasada que estava modificando a metrópole e o país. Logo, todas essas transformações, passaram a gerar vários conflitos que afetaram diretamente a mulher trabalhadora em diversas situações de exploração e opressão, tanto dentro das empresas pelos patrões, como no recinto doméstico por causa do machismo que impera na mente da maioria dos homens. Assim, podemos observar que, apesar da metade da população ser constituída por mulheres, são elas as que mais estudam, as que mais vivem na informalidade, e ainda são as mulheres que recebem salários inferiores ao dos homens quando desenvolvem as mesmas tarefas. Tudo isso por conta desse sistema alienador que faz de tudo para obter mais lucro através da exploração da classe trabalhadora

    Dual augmentation for aerobic bioremediation of MTBE and TCE pollution in heavy metal-contaminated soil

    In this work we isolated from soil and characterized several bacterial strains capable of either resisting high concentrations of heavy metals (Cd2+ or Hg2+ or Pb2+) or degrading the common soil and groundwater pollutants MTBE (methyl-tertbutyl ether) or TCE (trichloroethylene). We then used soil microcosms exposed to MTBE (50 mg/l) or TCE (50 mg/l) in the presence of one heavy metal (Cd 10 ppm or Hg 5 ppm or Pb 50 or 100 ppm) and two bacterial isolates at a time, a degrader plus a metalresistant strain. Some of these two-membered consortia showed degradation efficiencies well higher (49–182% higher) than those expected under the conditions employed, demonstrating the occurrence of a synergetic relationship between the strains used. Our results show the efficacy of the dual augmentation strategy for MTBE and TCE bioremediation in the presence of heavy metals

    Benzene biodegradability tests on a residual granitic soil

    Benzene is a component of most fuels and an important industrial solvent. It is widely spread in soils, sediments and groundwater near diesel/gasoline service stations, refineries and in other industrial areas. For benzene, as other BTEXs, the most used in-situ remediation technology is Soil Vapour Extraction followed by bioremediation. In the present work, a bacterial consortium was developed for the systematic study of the benzene bioremediation of soils contaminated. The effectiveness of biodegradation was studied in a residual granitic soil. The developed microorganism consortium was collected from a protection area of crude storage tanks in a refinery. Our results showed that the developed consortium was efficient in degrading benzene (about 18 days for soil remediation contaminated with 140 mg of benzene per kg of residual granitic soil in lab-scale studies)

    SABERES DOS POVOS DE UMBANDA NO TERRITÓRIO DISCIPLINAR DA GEOGRAFIA: : TENSIONALIDADES E POTENCIALIDADES

    Get PDF
    Este artigo analisa como saberes tradicionais de povos sagrados – povos de umbanda podem ser potenciais no ensino de Geografia. A metodologia utilizada compreendeu revisão bibliográfica, análise documental da Base Nacional Curricular Comum (BNCC) de Geografia e interlocução com representantes do povo de Umbanda da cidade de Sobral. Por meio dos saberes expressos nas narrativas dos representantes do povo de umbanda, propomos uma análise sobre os temas contidos na BNCC de geografia que tratam das competências e habilidades da educação geográfica que contemplem as questões interculturais. Como resultado das análises, destacamos que o ensino de geografia tem a potencialidade de promover uma educação libertadora não reprodutora das desigualdades e da manutenção das hegemonias dominantes. Se faz necessário, portanto, repensar, no contexto da educação geográfica, a qualificação do currículo e a prática docente, reconhecer outras epistemologias, reinventar o cotidiano da sala de aula e a vivência nos espaços educativos, garantir o pensamento autônomo dos estudantes, proporcionar protagonismo e contribuir para uma educação intercultural e inclusiva

    Microorganisms: the reason to perform endodontics

    Get PDF
    That we perform Endodontics because there are microorganisms is now beyond doubt. Nevertheless, not only the microorganisms, but also the host response have a profound effect on the progression of the disease. Many papers confirmed the polymicrobial nature of pulpal and periapical diseases of endodontic origin and the efficiency of the chemo-mechanical procedures based on physical and chemical elimination of their etiologic factors, whose principles were first presented as far as 1928 by Hall. Since not only bacterial load may be related to the clinical outcome, but also the bacterial composition of the microbiological canal ecosystem, we aimed at the enumeration of the microorganisms present in the different types of endodontic infections. Although the emerging picture is clearly a complex one, not allowing clear-cut association of bacteria and clinical situation, only the further pursuit of elucidation of the many factors involved (including geographical variability) will ultimately lead to rational treatment solutions.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Concerning the premium «dermatologist from the Heart» awarded by the Fondation La Roche Posay in 2014, we put into practice the winning project "Corvo Island Dermatology". The project’s main objective was to perform a screening of the skin in an area of the country with difficult geographical accessibility to specialized health care. The island has a single doctor, a general practitioner - Dr. José Pinto Faustino. The screening was performed for 5 days, between 13 and 18 July 2015 in the Health Unit of Corvo. There were attended 120 people living on the island that were observed by 2 participant dermatologists. No skin diseases with statistical significance were detected.No âmbito do prémio «dermatologist from the Heart» atribuído pela Fondation La Roche Posay no ano de 2014, pusemos em prática o projecto vencedor «Dermatologia na ilha do Corvo». Este projecto teve como objectivo principal efectuar um rastreio da pele numa zona do país com difícil acessibilidade geográfica a cuidados de saúde especializados. A ilha dispõe de um único médico em funções- Dr. José Pinto Faustino. O rastreio efectuou-se durante 5 dias, entre 13 e 18 de Julho de 2015 na Unidade de Saúde da Ilha do Corvo. Compareceram 120 pessoas residentes na ilha que foram observadas pelos 2 dermatologistas participantes. Não foram detectadas doenças da pele com relevância estatística

    How to Know it is "the One"? Selecting the Most Suitable Solution from the Pareto Optimal Set. Application to Sectorization

    Get PDF
    Multi-objective optimization (MOO) considers several objectives to find a feasible set of solutions. Selecting a solution from Pareto frontier (PF) solutions requires further effort. This work proposes a new classification procedure that fits into the analytic hierarchy Process (AHP) to pick the best solution. The method classifies PF solutions using pairwise comparison matrices for each objective. Sectorization is the problem of splitting a region into smaller sectors based on multiple objectives. The efficacy of the proposed method is tested in such problems using our instances and real data from a Portuguese delivery company. A non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is used to obtain PF solutions based on three objectives. The proposed method rapidly selects an appropriate solution. The method was assessed by comparing it with a method based on a weighted composite single-objective function. (original abstract

    A resectorization of fire brigades in the north of Portugal

    Get PDF
    Sectorization can be regarded as a division of a territory into smaller regions to deal with a complex problem involving multiple-criteria. Resectorization intends to achieve another sectorization, according to some new conditions but avoiding substantial changes. An example of this can be the distribution of geographical areas by fire brigades. In Portugal, fire brigades must protect and rescue the population in the areas surrounding their fire stations. So we will use the current sectorization, the geographic and population characteristics of the areas and the fire brigades’ response capacity to provide an optimised resectorization, in order to decrease rescue time. To achieve that, we will use a decision support system using different optimisation methods, such as Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA II), which provides an effective sectorization concerning compactness and equilibrium criteria.info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersio
