PROYECTO PLANIFICAR: PARA UNA ARQUITECTURA COMUNITARIA

O "Projeto Planejar: produção arquitetônica" visa a promover uma arquitetura comunitária, atendendo entidades sem fins lucrativos através da realização de projetos arquitetônicos, de acessibilidade, paisagísticos e afins, bem como de assessoria técnica, para espaços de uso comunitário no Município de Blumenau. Também são beneficiadas outras entidades que visam ao bem comum em caráter universal, ou mesmo a comunidade universitária, por meio de serviços técnicos internos. Esse processo envolve atividades de ensino, pesquisa e extensão, numa integração inter e multidisciplinar. A metodologia de trabalho é aplicada por meio de etapas claramente definidas pelo processo do fazer arquitetônico, abrangendo primeiramente (i) o contato com a comunidade para a definição da problemática, seguindo (ii) os estudos preliminares com o respectivo levantamento de dados, (iii) o partido geral e o anteprojeto, (iv) a aprovação da proposta pela comunidade, (v) o projeto executivo, e (vi) a entrega oficial dos projetos. Todas as etapas são realizadas pelos acadêmicos devidamente assessorados por docentes, viabilizando a construção dos espaços físicos necessários de forma econômica e ambientalmente adequada. Esse artigo apresenta os trabalhos realizados para três associações de moradores, que com uma equipe técnica de 4 docentes e 11 discentes beneficiaram 7.500 pessoas. Como resultado tem-se que a comunidade atendida organizou-se, social e politicamente, em torno do novo espaço edificado, os acadêmicos desenvolveram consciência e responsabilidade social, além de sistematizarem melhor e de maneira prática o conhecimento adquirido no ensino da graduação. Extensão, ensino e pesquisa se interconectam e se manifestam interdependentes. O fato de diversas comunidades contatadas terem executado serviços ambientais e obras civis sem o devido acompanhamento técnico e sem a aprovação dos órgãos competentes trouxe novas discussões ao meio acadêmico, que acabaram orientando as ações de trabalho para as atividades correntes, bem como revertendo em novas metas para ações futuras. Com o despertar da consciência ambiental da população envolvida e da criação de espaços comunitários com acessibilidade universal, que visam o lazer, a recreação, a cultura, os esportes e a sociabilidade como um todo, considera-se que o Projeto Planejar está alcançando plenamente seus objetivos.The project "Planning architecture" aims at promoting a communitarian architecture, benefiting non profit organizations through the accomplishment of accessibility, landscape architectonic projects, and so on. In addition, technical consultancy is provided for the organization of communitarian spaces in Blumenau, Brazil.

The methodology follows (i) contact the community for problems definition, (ii) data-collection, (iii) preliminary project, (iv) approval of the proposal by the community, (v) executive project, and (vi) official delivery of the projects. All stages are carried out by students assisted by their advisers, making the construction of the necessary spaces economically and environmentally adjusted. This study presents the activities and results carried out by 4 advisers and 11 students in three communities benefiting 7500 people. The results are rewarding. The community organized itself, social and politically, considering the new spaces and the students developed social consciousness and responsibility, and learned to systemize in a practical way the theoretical knowledge acquired during the regular courses. The interconnection between community services, education and research becomes evident.

The PLATO Mission

International audiencePLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large number of stars. PLATO will detect small planets (down to &lt;2 R_(Earth)) around bright stars (&lt;11 mag), including terrestrial planets in the habitable zone of solar-like stars. With the complement of radial velocity observations from the ground, planets will be characterised for their radius, mass, and age with high accuracy (5 %, 10 %, 10 % for an Earth-Sun combination respectively). PLATO will provide us with a large-scale catalogue of well-characterised small planets up to intermediate orbital periods, relevant for a meaningful comparison to planet formation theories and to better understand planet evolution. It will make possible comparative exoplanetology to place our Solar System planets in a broader context. In parallel, PLATO will study (host) stars using asteroseismology, allowing us to determine the stellar properties with high accuracy, substantially enhancing our knowledge of stellar structure and evolution. The payload instrument consists of 26 cameras with 12cm aperture each. For at least four years, the mission will perform high-precision photometric measurements. Here we review the science objectives, present PLATO's target samples and fields, provide an overview of expected core science performance as well as a description of the instrument and the mission profile at the beginning of the serial production of the flight cameras. PLATO is scheduled for a launch date end 2026. This overview therefore provides a summary of the mission to the community in preparation of the upcoming operational phases

Effects of pre-operative isolation on postoperative pulmonary complications after elective surgery: an international prospective cohort study an international prospective cohort study

We aimed to determine the impact of pre-operative isolation on postoperative pulmonary complications after elective surgery during the global SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We performed an international prospective cohort study including patients undergoing elective surgery in October 2020. Isolation was defined as the period before surgery during which patients did not leave their house or receive visitors from outside their household. The primary outcome was postoperative pulmonary complications, adjusted in multivariable models for measured confounders. Pre-defined sub-group analyses were performed for the primary outcome. A total of 96,454 patients from 114 countries were included and overall, 26,948 (27.9%) patients isolated before surgery. Postoperative pulmonary complications were recorded in 1947 (2.0%) patients of which 227 (11.7%) were associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Patients who isolated pre-operatively were older, had more respiratory comorbidities and were more commonly from areas of high SARS-CoV-2 incidence and high-income countries. Although the overall rates of postoperative pulmonary complications were similar in those that isolated and those that did not (2.1% vs 2.0%, respectively), isolation was associated with higher rates of postoperative pulmonary complications after adjustment (adjusted OR 1.20, 95%CI 1.05–1.36, p = 0.005). Sensitivity analyses revealed no further differences when patients were categorised by: pre-operative testing; use of COVID-19-free pathways; or community SARS-CoV-2 prevalence. The rate of postoperative pulmonary complications increased with periods of isolation longer than 3 days, with an OR (95%CI) at 4–7 days or ≥ 8 days of 1.25 (1.04–1.48), p = 0.015 and 1.31 (1.11–1.55), p = 0.001, respectively. Isolation before elective surgery might be associated with a small but clinically important increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Longer periods of isolation showed no reduction in the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. These findings have significant implications for global provision of elective surgical care.

Strategies and performance of the CMS silicon tracker alignment during LHC Run 2

The strategies for and the performance of the CMS silicon tracking system alignment during the 2015–2018 data-taking period of the LHC are described. The alignment procedures during and after data taking are explained. Alignment scenarios are also derived for use in the simulation of the detector response. Systematic effects, related to intrinsic symmetries of the alignment task or to external constraints, are discussed and illustrated for different scenarios
