Circulation et appropriation d’idées : l’utilisation de Carl Schmitt par Miguel Reale dans la légitimation du coup d’État civil-militaire de 1964

Cet article a pour objectif d’analyser l’usage fait par Miguel Reale de la pensée de Carl Schmitt en vue de légitimer juridiquement le coup d’État civil-militaire au Brésil en 1964. Nous soutenons que la pensée politique de Reale a évolué du corporatisme fasciste pendant sa jeunesse, vers une pensée toujours autoritaire, mais dorénavant épurée de ses références fascistes et désormais fondée sur un outillage conceptuel philosophique et juridique sophistiqué, dans lequel les concepts schmittiens occupent une place centrale. Pour examiner l’usage de Schmitt par Reale, nous nous pencherons sur l’œuvre de l’un et de l’autre : du premier, Théologie politique (1922), La notion de politique (1927) et Le gardien de la Constitution (1928) ; du second, ses mémoires Destinos Cruzados et A Balança e a Espada (1987) et Imperativos da revolução de março (1964). Cet article est divisé en trois parties. Dans la première, nous examinons quelques présupposés théoriques et méthodologiques sur lesquels nous nous sommes appuyés pour mener à bien nos analyses ; dans la seconde, nous nous concentrons sur les travaux de Carl Schmitt, mettant en exergue les principaux concepts que Miguel Reale s’est appropriés ; dans la troisième, enfin, nous analysons comment Reale les a opérationnalisés pour expliquer et, surtout, légitimer la prise de pouvoir militaire en 1964.
Haircut work station

A haircut work station provides a customer chair and a complementary operator seat which is movable in a generally circular arc about the customer chair. The operator seat is supported by a support member upon a swinging arm extending radially outward from a below-floor center post. The operator seat support member penetrates the floor through a narrow, semi-circular travel arc slot about the customer chair. The operator seat may move in and out relative to the customer chair, and may rotate about its own vertical axis. A lift assembly enables vertical movement of the operator seat relative to the floor and customer chair, A frame may be used to connect the center post, lift assembly, and floor. A vacuum line may extend through the customer chair support member to a remote vacuum system.
Behaviour-Connect: testing hypotheses on the behavioural drivers of connectivity in the marine environment through novel bayesian models

Connectivity is broadly defined as the exchange of individuals between populations. Assessment of connectivity is a key goal in ecology, evolution and conservation biology. At the ecological level, connectivity is key in the persistence and resilience of populations. At the evolutionary level, connectivity influences local adaptation.
In the marine environment, ecologists have primarily focused on biophysical models of larval exchange when investigating connectivity, because of the importance of such processes on exploited or commercial species. This has diverted attention from the potentially important role of behaviour as a driver of connectivity in the marine environment. Aspects of a species' behaviour, such as migratory fidelity, social structure and feeding specialisations, can play a strong role in shaping connectivity and gene flow that has been largely been ignored in connectivity studies to date.
I propose to address this knowledge gap by simultaneously harnessing leading empirical methods, micro-chemical markers and genomics, and integrating these into a novel Bayesian framework for testing hypothesis on the behavioural drivers of connectivity. I will apply this method to a globally distributed species, the southern right whale. This large, long-lived species is highly mobile, migrating between coastal winter calving grounds and high latitude offshore feeding grounds in summer. Southern right whales show maternally transmitted preferences for migratory destinations that could influence connectivity. The combination of well-described life-history traits and lack of barriers to dispersal makes the southern right whale an ideal species in which to investigate the importance of behaviour on connectivity. While providing insights into drivers of connectivity in the southern right whale, the project will generate broader hypotheses about drivers of connectivity and provide a model for combining different data types to rigorously test such hypotheses.

   wherein P is a hydrogen atom and Q represents a group -CH=N-OH or a group -CH(OR)₂, wherein each R represents a lower alkyl group or two R's together form a lower alkylene group which may have a lower alkyl substituent, or P and Q together form a group
   wherein R′ is a lower alkyl group. The compounds possess floral, fruity, or green odors and are useful for prepering perfume compositions.
Plant chemical defense based on mustard oil bomb

Producing toxic chemicals is an efficient strategy to protect plants from the herbivores. One of such defense chemicals are glucosinolates, which are produced in the plants of order Brassicales. The glucosinolates are thioglucosides, and their toxic activity is induced after deglycosidation by myrosinase. The defense system is called “mustard oil bomb”. Recent findings revealed that the number of myrosinases in Brassicales is higher than previously proposed, suggesting the variety of its defense system in Brassicales. It is proposed that the divergence of defense strategy is caused by the interaction of plant and herbivores. However, there is no direct evidence the plant-Herbivore interaction directs the divergence of plant defense systems, and it is still unknown about the impact of the changes of plant defense systems to the behavior of insect. The aim of our project is to understand how the plants of order Brassicales diverged chemical defense systems.
Deconstructing the Atlases: Jaime Cortesão and the Transformation of the <i>Atlas Histórico do Brasil</i> into the <i>Atlas Histórico Escolar</i>

Le projet d’un Atlas Histórico do Brasil (« Atlas historique du Brésil »), proposé en 1938 par le ministère des Affaires étrangères du Brésil à la veille de la commémoration du 50 e anniversaire de la République, s’est concrétisé en 1959 sous le titre d’ Atlas Histórico Escolar (« Atlas historique scolaire »). Conçu comme un outil d’apprentissage et de mémorisation de l’histoire nationale et des aspirations pacifiques, humanistes et internationales du Brésil, l’ouvrage enseignait aux élèves le rôle des diplomates à cet égard. En examinant la transformation de l’ Atlas Histórico do Brasil en Atlas Histórico Escolar, nous observons la récupération et le dépassement de contenus antérieurs, celui notamment des atlas géographiques brésiliens, et nous discernons les disputes et les tensions qui ont animé sa production. Notre étude, en éclairant la production des atlas historiques dans leur ensemble, nous permet de repenser le rôle de l’histoire de la cartographie en rapport à sa théorie, et suggère qu’il est possible d’envisager une analyse non-régulière et non-linéaire des atlas et des cartes.
Power converters with best in-class power density

The demand for electrical energy increases at a steady pace worldwide due to the growing and emerging applications such as server/telecom farms, 5G base station, more-electric aircrafts, consumer electronics, robotics, and electric vehicles. The volume and efficiency of the power converters utilized in these systems play a critical role for the fulfillment of this growth. Higher efficiency translates into more capacity utilization and less cooling efforts, whereas low volume and weight usually reduces the cost of the electronic components. Both of these aspects heavily depend on the innovations on the power topologies, control algorithms, magnetics, thermal substrates, and particularly power semiconductor switches. 
The power converter topologies in the literature have been invented to overcome or mitigate the large reverse recovery and output charge of Si power devices, while magnetics are optimized for switching frequencies that are achievable with Si power devices. However, the maximum efficiency and power density of Si based converters have already reached to its theoretical limit through innovations on the control and converter topologies. Recently, the adoption of the wide band-gap semiconductors has escalated the expectations from power electronics significantly, and initiated the transformation of the power architecture through new topologies and control innovations, while bringing new challenges in the high frequency domain.
This research proposal is intended to innovate, design, and implement a new front-end PFC converter switched at >400 kHz to achieve best in-class efficiency and power density with targets of more than 98.5% peak efficiency and 85W/in3 enclosed power density at 3.7kW output power. The know-how and framework will then be engineered to meet certain industrial specs of various applications including the pre-regulator stage of server/telecom supplies, on-board chargers, industrial drives.
Biofuels production from syngas fermentation for aviation and maritime use

BioSFerA aims to develop a cost-effective interdisciplinary technology to produce sustainable aviation and maritime fuels. Thus, biogenic residues and wastes will be gasified and the syngas will be fermented to produce bio-based triacylglycerides (TAGs). Bio-fuels will be produced via TAG hydrotreatment. The overall process, combining thermochemical, biological and thermocatalytic parts is based on the gasification of biomass and other biogenic waste in a Dual Fluidized Bed gasifier and the 2-stage fermentation of the produced syngas. Through this process the syngas is converted to acetate (1st stage) and then the acetate is converted to TAGs (2nd stage). The produced TAGs contained medium and long fatty acids are hydrotreated and isomerized after the necessary separation and purification and the end-products are jet- and bunker-like biofuels, respectively. BioSFerA aims to evolve the proposed technology from TRL3 to TRL5. In the TRL3 phase, extensive lab scale tests will take place in order to optimize the process and increase its feedstock flexibility in terms of non-food bio-based blends. The best acetogenic bacterial strain will be identified based on its tolerance to syngas contaminants. Moreover, oleaginous yeasts will be genetically modified to convert the acetate derived from the first stage into C14 and C16-18 TAGs. Then, building upon lab tests, the pilot scale runs (TRL5) will investigate the overall process. At least two barrels of Hydrotreated TAGs will be produced as drop-in biofuels for aviation and marine. By exploiting the synergies between biological and thermochemical technologies, BioSFerA achieves a total carbon utilization above 35% and a minimum selling price <0.7-0.8 €/l. A process model of the overall BioSFerA process will be developed exploiting the know-how gained during piloting and used for realistic up-scaling calculations. Finally, techno-economic, market, environmental social and health and safety risk assessments will be performed.
METHOD FOR DETECTING MALFUNCTIONING IN A SENSOR

The invention relates to a method for detecting malfunctioning in a sensor which detects a measured variable. A signal range check is carried out for the output signal of the sensor when the measured variable is situated within a permissible range. Said check is not carried out, however, the output signal is used for detecting the measured variable and for further calculation when the measured variable is situated outside said permissible range. The sensor is a hot film air mass sensor (HFM) in a motor for instance. In this case, the measured variable is the intake air mass and the signal range check is only carried out when the operating state of the motor and thus the intake air mass fulfil conditions that can be pre-determined. In addition to the signal range check, onboard diagnoses are carried out with regard to plausibility criteria. Said diagnoses relate to the offset drift and/or the sensitivity drift of the sensor.
Empirical Test of the Dividend Policy Irrelevance Hypothesis in the Nigerian Context

This research was carried out to examine the relevance of dividend policy in market price determination in the Nigerian capital market. With annual data from 20 highly capitalized companies quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange for the period 2005-2012, we found that the level of dividends is largely influenced by the level of  retained earnings in at least 70 per cent of the companies sampled.  There is no significant relationship between change in dividend policy and change in market price. The retained earnings coefficient is more significant than the dividend coefficient in market price determination.  Overall, the results agree with the earlier research works which argue that dividend policy is irrelevant in determining enterprise value. In a world of withholding taxes, it is capital appreciation and the reinvestment level, not necessarily dividend policy, that affects stock market behaviour in Nigeria. Keywords :  Dividend policy, hypothesis, Nigeria, enterprise value.

Newseye: a digital investigator for historical newspapers

Newspapers collect information about cultural, political and social events in a more detailed way than any other public record. Since their beginnings in the 17th century they are recording billions of events, stories and names, in almost every language, every country and every day. Newspapers were always an important medium for the dissemination of public and political opinions, literary works, essays and art. This thematic wealth sets them at the center stage for anyone interested in European cultural heritage.

In the last decades, tens of millions of newspaper pages from European libraries have been digitized and made available online, while national libraries will intensify their digitization efforts in the coming years. There is large demand for access to historical newspapers. At this very moment, probably thousands of European citizens are accessing digitized versions of historical newspapers utilizing digital library services. Whilst the broad public shows general interest in this historical and cultural resource, it is of crucial importance for many humanities scholars.

The NewsEye project involves national libraries, humanities and social science research groups and computer science research groups. It addresses a number of challenges, which will result in significant scientific advances, in several directions:
 * in text recognition, text analysis, natural language processing, computational creativity and natural language generation, with regard to historical newspapers but also more universally, 
 * in digital newspaper research, addressing a number of editorial issues like OCR and article separation,
 * in digital humanities, in respect to huge amounts of text material, availability of useful tools and possibilities of searching and browsing,
 * in history, in terms of analyzing historical assets with new methods across different language corpora.
Do Occasional Volunteers Repeat their Experience?

Understanding the experiences of volunteers is critical to the effective management of non-profit organizations. Many organizations benefit greatly from the work of volunteers; however, little is known about the interest of occasional volunteers in repeating their experience. Our research aims to understand occasional volunteers and their intention to repeat the experience. To achieve this objective, it is essential to understand volunteers’ motivations and the influence of volunteers’ previous experiences in motivations. At the same time, it is necessary to know how these factors may impact satisfaction and therefore, the intention to repeat the experience in the future. For this research, we analyzed the campaigns organized by the Food Bank Against Hunger (FBAH) in Portugal. Through online questionnaires, data were collected at two different moments: one month before and one month after the campaign. Results show five motivations categories: purposive, understanding, protection and enhancement, group identification and career. The research shows that motivations vary depending on volunteers’ previous experience, and this fact may also influence the level of satisfaction with the experience. All volunteers presented a high level of satisfaction and this variable influences volunteers intention of repeating, that is, volunteers wanting to be engaged in future campaigns.
Numerical evaluation of RF gas ionization effects in micro-and nano-scale devices

Micro- and nano-scale gaps are likely to occur in miniaturized and high frequency devices. Large electric fields (~10s V/μm) may result in such gaps even for relatively small voltages commonly found in existing electronics. These strong fields can potentially induce gas discharge, which may lead to performance degradation or even device failure. Gas discharge is due to generation and movement of charged species as a result of impact ionization, secondary electron emission, and field emission phenomena. In this paper, the importance of field emission in gas discharge in small gaps for both DC and RF regimes is investigated by using a numerical-based comparison technique.
Exhibiting the everyday : the musealization of 1950s material culture in France and Germany

Over the course of the last decade, the 1950s have been transformed from little more than a historical interregnum between the Second World War and the 1960s into a powerful trope in the popular imagination. Nowhere has this shift been more significant than in France and Germany, where processes of forgetting connected to post-war nation-building and mythification are giving way to more complex reappraisals of the 1950s. The French and German museum landscapes, in particular, have seen the emergence of a large number of museums and exhibitions devoted to the period since the turn of the new millennium. Concerned with the quotidian realities of day-to-day life and the grassroots experiences of ‘normal’ people, these sites are part of a proliferation of 1950s-related remembering enacted through the lens of the everyday.
Using a variety of sources, ranging from personal interpretation of exhibitions and collections to museum catalogues and press reports, this thesis examines the multifarious nature of museum representation and remembering associated with the 1950s in France and Germany. By focusing on nine different sites, it assesses the different spatio-temporal frameworks and strategies used to narrate the 1950s, and determines how ‘counter-memories’ and more hegemonic memories and histories of the period are being constructed across different regional and national contexts. Despite the significance of national myths and memorial tendencies, it finds that the 1950s are being reimagined through a plurality of local, regional, national and transnational narratives, and that ‘bottom-up’ and ‘top-down’ approaches are giving way to more nuanced ways of reframing the post-war period.
These findings highlight the increasing democratization of history and memory and the diverse ways in which ‘counter-memory’ and ‘genealogy’ are employed to reclaim the 1950s past. As such, the 1950s are being reworked from a simple decadal period into a semantically richer ‘time-space’.
Safe human-robot interaction in logistic applications for highly flexible warehouses

The European market for e-commerce is growing rapidly, with more than 16% just in the year 2014. With the internationalization of distribution chains, the key for success lies within efficient logistics. In such facilities, goods for the end-user or products in the B2B sector are stored, commissioned and shipped. To manage the supply chains, many new warehouses have been erected and more will follow. With the growing markets, the need for larger warehouses and their automation increases. To advance the position of the European trade sector, technical restrictions on the size of warehouses should be avoided and new automation paradigm should be implemented to ensure their efficient operation. Therefore the European robotic and automation companies should be able to provide appropriate solutions, making scalable systems and scalable software mandatory. Current automation solutions based on strict separation of humans and robots cannot provide such efficient operation of large warehouses. SafeLog aims to overcome this issue by enabling much more efficient warehouse concepts joining human and robot workforce. Given that, the overall objective of SafeLog is the conception and implementation of a large-scale flexible warehouse system which enables safe and efficient collaboration of humans and robots in the same area and at the same time.

On the way to reach this objective SaveLog will develop, integrate and test: (1) a holistic and certifiable safety concept based on the safety vest, which allows the collaboration of robots and humans in a flexible warehouse system, (2) planning and scheduling algorithms for a heterogeneous fleet manager, which allow the adhoc reactive planning and scheduling for human and robot workforce in a flexible warehouse system, and (3) augmented reality based interaction strategies to support workers in a robotized warehouse system with information about their current task and environment.
