Authors:   PG Deptt of Commerce, DAVCC, Delhi NCR, India, Rana Jyoti
Published: October 2019

The purpose of this paper is to identify the levels of brand awareness, sources of brand awareness, and brand image of smart phones among young and educated rural consumers. Data was collected from 800 young and educated rural consumers. The relevant responses were analysed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and Chi-square via the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The opening of new stores that ensure the availability of all brands and the opening of service centres, among other things, are recommended to create awareness and build preference as the educated rural youth changes phones quite frequently. Males were found to be more familiar regarding awareness and usage for all brands of mobile phones than females. Marketers must focus on the needs of female consumers for creating better awareness and preference in them. It is recommended that marketers must develop their websites and update all the new applications and attractive offers over there. This is because the internet is considered as the essential source for creating awareness among the young and educated rural consumers.The coverage area of the study is too small and needs to expand to generalise the findings. Respondents were selected from educational institutions of Delhi, the capital city of India. Consequently, there is a limitation to representing the entire population of India.The findings of the paper indicate the awareness level and brand image perception among young and educated rural consumers, which is not covered much in the existing literature. From this paper, marketers and practitioners can get help in formulating strategies to make their brands popular and improve their brand equity to make their business sustainable. Empirically, marketers and practitioners should focus on media to create brand awareness among young consumers and should put more effort in making efficient use of social networking media, such as Facebook, etc.

Digital signal processing is most widely used to process the signal. In digital signal processing filters are used to remove some unwanted constituents from aspired signal. Windowing is a scheme of finite impulse response filters. Present paper proposes a new versatile window function. It has two variable parameters first one is window span N and another changeable parameter is r. when the value of variable parameter r increases width of major lobe of window also increases with better side lobe reduction and vice versa. Gaussian window and Kaiser window are the well-known variable windows. This paper shows that the proposed window has more desirable results in comparison of Gaussian and Kaiser window with low power loss and better side lobe reduction. To achieve minimum power loss peak side lobe level should have to minimum. Proposed window has low peak side lobe level (-17.681dB) in comparison of Gaussian (-11.836dB) and Kaiser window (-6.9704dB). Proposed work shows that the proposed window has finer spectral characteristic then Gaussian and Kaiser window. FIR filter formed by applying proposed window has narrow -3dB bandwidth (2π×0.320 rad/sample) corresponding to FIR filter formed by using Gaussian and Kaiser window. Ripple ratio of FIR filter plotted by applying proposed window (-144.321dB) is less corresponding to FIR filter delineated by using Gaussian and Kaiser which indicates that the proposed window will give better side lobe rejection and reduce the aliasing problem. In the biomedical field noise present in ECG signal can also reduce by using proposed window.

The paper is dedicated to study a numerical model simulating dam-break based on two dimensional nonlinear shallow water equations (2D-NSWE). Finite Volume Method-Godunov type is applied to discretize this equation. Roe scheme is utilized to approximate Riemann problem, meanwhile method of flux difference splitting is implemented to construct numerical solvers of SWE. Besides, the semi implicit scheme is also invoked to solve friction term in case of high roughness coefficient. The proposed model is verified through a comparison between computed results and empirical data of two reference tests. A dam break flow over floodable area with different roughness coefficients is also researched. A total collapsed dam scenario of an arch dam-Nam Chien in Vietnam is simulated by the proposed model. Several hydraulic characteristics such as flood extent, arrival time and time histories of water depth at different gauges are estimated with different grid sizes.

StormPav Green Pavement System is a non-commercialized permeable road with a function of stormwater detention. This paper demonstrates the application of the R&D product in part of a 14,000 m2 government building complex as a new feature of sustainable drainage system. To assess its stormwater impacts to the project site, two software are utilized to analyze the stormwater flow processes when merely 10% of the project area is incorporated with StormPav. Firstly, Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is used to simulate the project-wide stormwater flow, in which reductions between 22% - 6% in terms of peak flow rates are predicted compared to conventional drains when subjected to 5 – 180 minutes of 10-year Average Recurrent Interval (ARI) design rainfall. Secondly, SolidWorks Flow Simulation (SWFS) simulates the detailed flow processes within the StormPav system, in which it is found 0.5 – 1.3 m/s of velocities are predicted around the inlets and outlet that conform to the local stormwater management standard. Besides, SWFS allows visualization of velocity and streamline profiles across the StormPav system that conventional SWMM could not provide.

The main objective of the Project is the “Behaviour Of Self-Supporting Communication Tower Subjected To Wind Load” The thesis deals with the study of the behaviours of self supporting tower under static and dynamic loading cases. The study is extended for the behaviour of tower in both face and corner wind0cases. As wind force plays a major role as far as loading is considered in tall structures. For the details study of this project a case study is done0considering a 100m high self supporting tower. In addition to the wind loading the loads of the communication antennas that will come on the tower are also considered. It describes the wind load calculations, analysis procedure and design of tower members. The tower is analyzed for both corner wind and face wind directions. Analysis if performed using SAP 80/90. The basic activity starts with modelling of the tower. Modelling of tower is an assembly structure with different configuration parts stands one above the other, each we call it as BAY. For this come typical bay types are formatted which could be used as data for generation of tower configuration. These typical configurations shall help in generation0of easy model with different options in achieving the required parameters of optimum design results of0minimum tonnage of the total structure with allowable deflections at maximum wind in both static and dynamic cases. Wind load and antenna load calculations0are carried out by using ‘C’ program. Tower configuration, wind load calculations on tower, dimensions and properties of the tower (input to ‘C’) are explained by taking typical Bay-1. For analysis of tower, the required formatted input for Structural0Analysis Program (SAP) is obtained by ‘C’) program output. Member forces are obtained by genol 1.f3f file (SAP output file). All tower members are designed as axially0loaded compression members as per standard specifications. Design of members are carried out for maximum0member forces obtained by both corner and face wind analysis. If capacity of member is less than member force higher sections0are selected and analysis & design is carried out until member capacity is more than member force. Output (analysis & design data for all members is obtained using member0forces file and “Design” C program file. This output is shown in Tables. Foundation forces and joint displacements are obtained by SAP output file (genol.sol) and the maximum deflection is checked as per specifications. In the tower structures, the leg members are governed0when the wind acts in corner direction. Similarly the horizontal and diagonal members are governed when wind acts in face direction. The results tabulated shows0the forces that are changing in static and dynamic loading.

Pada awalnya Desa Nusa Tunggal adalah desa transmigran asal Jawa, terutama dari Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta dan Jawa Tengah. Ketika dibuka pertama tahun 1970-an, para petani bekerja sebagai petani padi tadah hujan. Hal ini dilakukan karena sampai sekarang daerah ini tidak ada saluran irigasi, sehingga tanaman padi yang cocok adalah padi gaga (tanaman padi tahan kering). Mengingat padi gaga hanya dapat ditanam satu tahun satu kali, yaitu pada musim hujan, maka lambat laun petani banyak yang beralih menanam karet. Beralihnya petani menanam karet dimulai tahun 1980-an. Mereka yang menanam karet tingkat ekonominya nampak lebih baik dibandingkan dengan petani yang masihbertahan menaman padi kering (gaga). Sampai tahun 1990-an petani karet terus bertambah seiring dengan berkurangnya petani padi tadah hujan. Pergeseran penanaman padi tadah hujan ke tanaman karet terus berlangsung semakin intensif, sehingga sampai tahun 2012 seluruh petani di Desa Nusa Tunggal sudah bertanam karet, sehingga tidak ada lagi yang menanam padi tadah hujan. Adapun alasan mereka beralih menjadi petani karet, secara ekonomi lebih menguntungkan dibandingkan menanampadi tadah hujan yang hanya ditanam setahun sekali. Jika padi gaga hanya panen sekali dalam setahun, maka tanaman karet dapat menghasilkan getah yang siap jual dalam waktu dua minggu sekali, sehingga tiap dua minggu sekali mereka dapat uang hasil penyadapan karet. Selama masa enam tahun itu petani karet dapat menanam sayur mayur di sela-sela tanaman karet dan beternak sehingga dapat memenuhi kebutuhan hidup sehari-hari

This article looks at the history and development of Padang Cement Fabric in its relationship with the Dutch economic policy by the end of the 19th C. and in the beginning of the 20th C. The foundation of the oldest cement fabric in Indonesia had a close relationship with political-economic policy introduced by the Dutch colonial government, which gave many opportunities to the foreign investors to exploit its colony. Padang Cement Fabric itself only one of several fabrics, minings, and big plantations in which the investors invested their capital during the liberal era in West Sumatra. The construction of Padang Cement Fabric also represented colonial government policy in urban planning in Padang municipality. In the beginning of the 20th C., the development orientation of Padang was directed to the eastward and southward of the city. Besides that, to encourage the investors and to implement its urban planning policy, colonial government provided special supports, such as introducing regulations to reduce administrative process for investors to invest their money in this region. The government even sacrificed the native peoples in order to succeed its colonial political-economic.

Com o intuito de viabilizar ações que contribuam com um ensino de ciências mais contextualizado, foi desenvolvido o presente trabalho de pesquisa, o qual buscou correlacionar, por intermédio da experimentação, os conceitos de pressão de vapor e evaporação, com situações do cotidiano de alunos e professores, tornando desta forma o ensino de química mais significativo. A pesquisa se caracteriza por ser experimental. Foram desenvolvidos experimentos, a temperatura ambiente, com diversos solventes, armazenados em placas petry de tamanhos diferentes e submetidas a distintas ações externas (sem e com fluxo forçado de ar). O tempo de evaporação total dos solventes apresentou tendência inversa com a pressão de vapor dos mesmos para todas as situações avaliadas. Pode-se observar também que, independente do solvente, os ensaios conduzidos com a placa petry com maior área superficial e submetidos a um fluxo forçado de ar apresentaram menores tempos para a completa evaporação dos solventes, explicando assim questões do nosso cotidiano, como o porquê de a roupa secar mais rápido em dias ventosos.

Dimensões da democratização da ciência-tecnologia no âmbito da educação CTS
Authors: Ewerling da Rosa Suiane , Strieder Roseline Beatriz
Published: October 2019

Considerando que o movimento Ciência-Tecnologia-Sociedade (CTS) tem como um dos seus propósitos centrais a busca por processos ampliados de participação em temas sociais de ciência-tecnologia (CT), neste artigo, propomos discussões que visam ampliar entendimentos sobre processos democráticos em CT. Para isso, consideramos três perspectivas distintas de democratização que envolvem as dimensões: i) linear e hierarquizada; ii) dialógica; e, iii) produção conjunta e compartilhada de conhecimentos. Como encaminhamentos, associamos essas dimensões a sentidos e perspectivas relativos à educação CTS. Além disso, ressaltamos a importância de problematizar aspectos sobre processos democráticos na educação CTS, visto que esses, muitas vezes, estão fundamentados por discursos vazios de significados. Portanto, defendemos que em uma educação que tenha como propósito a constituição de uma cultura de participação, como é o caso de CTS, discussões como essas são essenciais, necessárias e não podem ser passíveis de pouca criticidade.
Os Portfólios como instrumento avaliativo em uma proposta de Ensino por Investigação
Authors: Lorenzon Mateus
Published: October 2019

Resumo: Neste artigo, investiga-se as contribuições do uso dos portfólios como instrumento avaliativo em uma proposta de Ensino por Investigação. O estudo caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa-ação, desenvolvida junto a uma turma do 3.º ano do Ensino Fundamental. O corpus da pesquisa é constituído por Portfólios Individuais dos estudantes e pelo Diário de Aula mantido pelo docente, sendo estes analisados por meio da Análise Textual Discursiva. Os dados foram dispostos em três categorias, sendo que a primeira trata das possibilidades desse instrumento servir como um recurso que dê visibilidade às aprendizagens das crianças. A segunda categoria aborda a possibilidade dos portfólios fomentarem a comunicação entre as crianças e os docentes, evidenciando os interesses e as necessidades. A terceira categoria trata do desenvolvimento da metacognição, visto que ao elaborarem seus portfólios as crianças têm oportunidade de refletir sobre as tarefas que realiza e criar estratégias para aperfeiçoá-las. Assim, evidencia-se que o uso de portfólios como um instrumento de avaliação permite ao docente acompanhar e monitorar o desenvolvimento da aprendizagem dos estudantes e planejar estratégias de trabalho que são adequadas as dificuldades apresentadas pelas crianças.
A Neurociência na formação do professor de Física: análise curricular das licenciaturas em Física da região sul do Brasil
Authors: Vizzotto Patrick Alves
Published: October 2019

É investigado se os cursos de formação de professores de Física possuem em seus currículos disciplinas que ensinem conceitos de neurociência aos futuros docentes. Através de uma pesquisa documental, analisou-se o conteúdo de 33 matrizes curriculares de licenciaturas de Física do Sul do Brasil. Como resultado, observou-se que a relação entre as duas áreas ainda não é realidade efetiva dentro da formação do professor de Física. Sugere-se para estudos futuros a ampliação da investigação à nível nacional, a fim de fornecer um panorama geral da realidade estudada, a fim de que discussões como estas possam sensibilizar pesquisadores e formadores de professores para a importância do trabalho interdisciplinar entre as áreas supracitadas, com o objetivo de formar um professor que compreenda de forma abrangente seus alunos, desde o que os move para aprender, até mesmo quais estratégias de ensino necessitam ser aplicadas e outras, revisadas, para uma aprendizagem de maior significado.
O diário de bordo na formação inicial de professores de Química
Authors: Cabral Wallace Alves
Published: October 2019

Atividades de leitura e escrita têm sido desenvolvidas com diferentes abordagens no âmbito da formação de professores de Ciências da Natureza. Ancorado nos pressupostos teóricos e metodológicas da Análise do Discurso de Linha Francesa (AD), esse artigo objetiva identificar as marcas de autoria em textos produzidos por licenciandos em Química da Universidade Federal de São João del-Rei (UFSJ) em MG. Os textos produzidos a partir dos diferentes gêneros textuais são chamados de diário de bordo, sendo esses construídos e apresentados no decorrer da unidade curricular Química e Sociedade. Mediante a construção do corpus de análise e do dispositivo teórico e analítico, uma categoria analítica emergiu. As análises mostraram que os diferentes diários possibilitaram o estabelecimento de várias relações inter, intra e extratextuais. Nesse sentido, os tipos de repetição (empírica, formal e histórica) foram apresentados, mostrando a necessidade de incentivo de diferentes ações na formação inicial de professores de Química para além do relatório técnico.

Published: October 2019

O presente relato analisa as escritas dos alunos do 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental, resultantes de uma prática desenvolvida por meio da parceria da Universidade Federal da Fronteira Sul (UFFS) com uma escola do município de Cerro Largo - RS. Esta parceria ocorre por meio da inserção dos bolsistas do PETCiências na escola. As escritas analisadas são resultado da participação em uma das palestras desenvolvidas na Semana Nacional do Meio Ambiente que tinham como foco principal a Educação Ambiental, por meio da política dos 5R’s (Reduzir; Repensar; Reaproveitar; Reciclar; Recusar) voltado ao Meio Ambiente. As escritas foram analisadas de acordo com as concepções sobre o ambiente de Sauvé (2005b), identificadas e sistematizadas em três em três categorias: Ambiente como a Natureza, Ambiente como um Recurso e Ambiente como um Problema.

Este trabalho possui o objetivo de analisar a viabilidade econômica e ambiental da instalação de unidade de microgeração de energia solar fotovoltaica e de aproveitamento de água de chuva em três escolas da rede pública de Ilhéus. O método adotado contempla a análise do enquadramento legal vigente no Brasil, o levantamento de dados de consumo de água e energia elétrica, o cálculo de irradiaçãoolar e de precipitação pluviométrica incidente na área e, o dimensionamento dos sistemas de microgeração de energia elétrica solar e de aproveitamento de água de chuva em cada unidade escolar estudada. Os resultados encontrados demonstram viabilidade econômica e ambiental, uma vez que a implantação desses sistemas promove economia mensal de aproximadamente 96% no consumo de energia elétrica e 40% no consumo mensal de água potável nas unidades escolares estudadas.

Esta inserção internacional é motivada, entre outros fatores, pelo fortalecimento dos aspectos relacionados à competitividade, a eliminação da dependência do mercado interno, e ainda, a possibilidade de uma maior obtenção de lucros. Este artigo tem por objetivo identificar as etapas vinculadas à estratégia na inserção internacional de uma empresa exportadora de arroz do Sul de Santa Catarina. O marco teórico se posicionou frente à internacionalização das organizações, bem como as principais estratégias para a inserção internacional. Metodologicamente, caracterizou-se como uma pesquisa descritiva, quanto aos fins, e, bibliográfica e um estudo de caso, quanto aos meios de investigação. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de uma entrevista, com o auxílio de um roteiro semiestruturado, junto aos Gerentes Comercial e Administrativo, com uma abordagem qualitativa. Verificou-se que a organização iniciou suas atividades no mercado internacional com o desenvolvimento de exportações indiretas, de caráter ocasional e experimental. Entretanto, após o acúmulo de experiências, a mesma passou a realizar exportações diretas, apresentando uma evolução gradativa em seu processo de internacionalização. Atualmente, a empresa demonstra interesse em consolidar-se neste mercado, apostando na divulgação de seus produtos e em novas formas de atuação. A originalidade está no fato de apresentar um estudo em uma empresa vinculada ao agronegócio (arroz), contribuindo assim, para a ampliação dos estudos neste setor. Como limitações, infere-se o estudo realizado em uma única empresa, fazendo que os resultados sejam restritos a organização em estudo.
Da Gestão ao Sistema

O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a implementação de um Sistema de Gestão Ambiental (SGA), baseado na ISO 14.001:2004, na Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES) Universidade Federal da Fronteira Sul, campus Chapecó. Para que esse objetivo fosse alcançado foram realizados levantamentos de informações junto aos setores responsáveis pela gestão ambiental do campus e também averiguações à campo, resultando em dados posteriormente analisados. Através destes, foi proposto um modelo de SGA para ser implantado na IES, tendo em vista que estas podem ser consideradas fontes geradoras de resíduos e problemas ambientais. De acordo com os dados levantados, as principais falhas estão atreladas à falta de uma Política Ambiental que venha a unificar os setores que, até o momento, agem de forma fragmentada; além de falta de treinamento, capacitação e conscientização dos técnicos e funcionários. O modelo de SGA proposto para a IES visa a introdução de conteúdos de sustentabilidade ambiental nos currículos, bem como um processo de conscientização a todos os alunos, técnicos, funcionários e servidores. É um modelo baseado no ciclo Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA), e tem o intuito de buscar a melhoria contínua. Conclui-se, portanto, que a Instituição foi criada com o propósito de práticas ambientais e desenvolvimento sustentável, favorecendo a implantação de um SGA. Contudo, faz-se necessário que haja um comprometimento da alta direção para que o objetivo seja alcançado, e que os setores trabalhem em conjunto, melhorando a comunicação interna e procurando sempre uma melhoria contínua.

As transformações nos processos de ensino e aprendizagem são constantes, e estão presentes no tratamento da Geometria em sala de aula. É um campo que costuma ser causa de dificuldades dos alunos, e também dos professores, tanto em seu entendimento como na forma de ensiná-lo. Hoje nota-se que este conteúdo ainda é motivo de várias discussões e pesquisas, focando aspectos como uso de materiais manipulativos e tecnologia, visualização espacial, tratamento conceitual, entre outros. Diante desse cenário, e considerando que o livro didático é o material didático mais utilizado pelos professores como suporte às suas aulas, uma pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa, foi desenvolvida visando analisar livros de Matemática utilizados na Rede Municipal de Rio Claro - SP, no 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental, e aprovados pelo PNLD. Este texto compartilha, então, parte dos seus resultados, focando na relação entre os aspectos cotidianos e a Geometria. O foco aqui não é a análise do livro em si, mas aprofundar a análise dessa relação, a partir de exemplos presentes nos livros estudados previamente. Os resultados indicam que essa relação aparece de forma natural em muitos exercícios, que exploram a nomenclatura das figuras geométricas a partir da sua semelhança com objetos cotidianos, sejam eles bidimensionais ou tridimensionais. Há questões que vão além do tratamento dos conceitos geométricos, abordando por exemplo, temas transversais e situações cotidianas como o significado das placas de trânsito (e não apenas sua forma). Materiais concretos também são sugeridos pelos autores para a manipulação dos alunos, bem como a exploração de situações problemas. Questões como essas podem contribuir para a reflexão do professor sobre sua prática no tratamento da Geometria, como também da escolha dos livros.
