Published: July 2017

Staphylococcus aureus es un patógeno capaz de causar infecciones con amplio rango de severidad y adaptarse a diferentes tejidos. Su epidemiología es compleja, por circulación de cientos de clones a nivel mundial, lo que requiere de métodos moleculares reproducibles y de alto poder discriminatorio para la identificación de los mismos. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo principal la estandarización del análisis multi-locus de número variable de repeticiones en tándem (MLVA) para análisis de variabilidad genética de aislados de S. aureus previamente tipificados por electroforesis en gel de campo pulsado (PFGE), gold standard para tipificación de aislados. La MLVA se realizó por amplificación de 7 locus VNTR (clfA, clfB, sdrC, sdrD, sdrE, sspA y spA) por PCR. Se alcanzó un alto nivel de reproducibilidad. El empleo de cepas previamente tipificadas por análisis de secuencias multi-locus (MLST), PFGE, locus spa y cassette SCCmec, permitió validar de forma comparativa el agrupamiento generado por MLVA. Los aislados que fueron agrupados como idénticos por MLVA presentaron resultados congruentes con la totalidad de las otras técnicas moleculares y ésta demostró ser más sensible que PFGE para distinguir entre aislados que presentaron patrones PFGE idénticos. La MLVA cumple todos los criterios de un método de tipificación útil.

Memórias da surdez nas crônicas “O surdo” (1998) e “Não foi com certeza assim mas faz de conta” (2002), do escritor português António Lobo Antunes
Authors: Silva Alessandra Gomes
Published: July 2017

Este trabalho pretende analisar algumas imagens e sentidos atribuídos à surdez, a partir de duas crônicas do escritor português António Lobo Antunes: “Não foi com certeza assim mas faz de conta” (2002) e “O surdo” (1998). Interessa-nos ainda o modo de criação dos textos citados, traçando um paralelo em relação ao tipo de construção reflexiva que aparece em alguns escritos de Walter Benjamin, basicamente “Rua de mão única” e “Infância em Berlim”. Em ambos os autores, a produção ficcional é atrelada à questão da memória, tendo como ponto de partida o encontro com um objeto aparentemente simples do cotidiano. Por fim, ressaltamos a discussão sobre a normalização dos corpos, tendo como base a questão do não ouvir e a forma como isso é percebido socialmente.

O corpo amoroso em O livro da paz da mulher angolana, as heroínas sem nome: subsídios para leitura
Authors: De Souza Maria Salete Daros
Published: July 2017

Memórias de O livro da paz da mulher angolana, as heroínas sem nome (Kasembe; Chiziane, 2008) embasam a reflexão que este estudo desenvolve a respeito do corpo amoroso das mulheres, por ocasião da Guerra Civil em Angola. Seguindo um percurso de domesticação e de aviltamento do corpo feminino pelas circunstâncias trágicas da guerra – de caráter eminentemente androcêntrico e genderizado –, os corpos dos sujeitos femininos são trazidos à luz da reflexão através de testemunhos de vivências de ultraje, exacerbadas pela propaganda nacionalista da guerra e, em alguns casos, através de memórias de superação e de empoderamento político e social. Neste sentido, este estudo apresenta subsídios para ler o corpo dos sujeitos femininos em diálogo com questões de gênero, de sexualidade, de classe e de raça, cartografado num panorama de gênese histórico-cultural que se complexifica com a problemática da guerra, do colonialismo e do pós-colonialismo.

O corpo de Deus em estado crítico: uma leitura do cristianismo na lírica camoniana e nos poemas de Ruy Belo
Authors: Ramos Kigenes Simas
Published: July 2017

O presente artigo é uma análise do modo como a hermenêutica histórica cristã e o modelo de corporeidade do cristianismo foram mobilizados na lírica de Camões e nos poemas de Ruy Belo. Nossa abordagem parte do problema da encarnação do Cristo e do vínculo à ressurreição enquanto elementos constitutivos da formulação cristã da temporalidade, tendo em vista a forma como Camões e Ruy Belo os pervertem em seus respectivos procedimentos poéticos. Acreditamos que o confronto dos dois poetas com esses aspectos do cristianismo produz formas poéticas de grande potencial crítico.

RESEARCHING THE OLDER PEOPLE’S NEEDS FOR SPECIALIZED SERVICES OF THE WELLNESS INDUSTRY IN NOVOSIBIRSK
Authors: Загорская Любовь , Zagorskaya Lyubov , Назаркина Валерия , Nazarkina Valeriya
Published: July 2017

The article is devoted to the considering theoretical and practical issues of the wellness industry development in Novosibirsk and the use of its opportunities for organizing leisure time for older people. The authors consider the development tendencies in the wellness industry as way for organizing the leisure of consumers whose physical, psycho-emotional and financial possibilities are lower than active age people. The statistical data cited in the article indicates that the development of services in this sector is rapidly growing, the range of services are expanded, wellness companies are oriented to different groups of consumers: children, pregnant women, disabled people, etc. However, attention is not paid to people of the third age. This research provides mapping the market of services of enterprises and organizations rendering wellness services. In particular, those organizations that provide fitness and dance services are considered. It is these services in the wellness industry that can solve for the elderly at least two tasks at a time - maintaining and strengthening psychosomatic health and creating conditions for versatile communication. The results of mapping show that Novosibirsk has large number of such organizations, however, only two among them (included in the federal fitness network) provide services for the elderly people. The survey of elderly people in Novosibirsk allowed to identify the need for fitness and dance services, and made it possible to determine priorities in time, cost and types of employment in the centers of the wellness industry. Also the authors note that classes for people of this target group should take into account its features and should be conducted by trainers with special education. According to these features specialized programs should be developed, including the use of recreational and service technologies as an alternative to the usual fitness.

However, the main way to increase the competitiveness of organizations is the transition of the economy to an innovative socially-oriented model of development.

The article deals with the assessing the effectiveness of the managerial innovations application. Today, there are many problems associated with the assessment of the efficiency and effectiveness of their application in various organizations. The authors consider the concepts of "innovation" and "competitiveness", as well as methods for assessing the efficiency of managerial innovations..
How international competitiveness moderates the relationship between corporate governance and seasoned equity offering underpricing
Authors: Shiue Fu-Jiing , Yen Yi-Yin
Published: July 2017

When a company exhibits favorable management performance, investors may have higher intention to purchase its stock at a premium price; the company may also make more desirable decisions in international expansion, attain higher international competitiveness, win the preference of investors, and thus exhibit a higher stock price, which results in higher seasoned equity offering (SEO) underpricing. Therefore, international competitiveness possibly plays a crucial moderating role between corporate governance and SEO underpricing. The empirical results of this study show that compared with government-controlled companies, international competitiveness strengthens the relationship of SEO underpricing with one-family-controlled companies, two-or-more family-controlled companies, and manager-controlled companies. Accordingly, companies should improve their international competitiveness and conduct favorable corporate management to elicit the investment intention of market participants worldwide.
O olhar clínico sobre os fatores prognósticos das afasias
Authors: Neves Camila , Catrini Melissa
Published: July 2017

Objetivo: Identificar o modo como os fatores prognósticos têm sido abordados e sua implicação nos alicerces teórico-metodológicos que fundamentam o raciocínio clínico com relação ao prognóstico no campo da afasiologia. Método: Foi realizada pesquisa bibliográfica nas bases de dados SciELO, PubMed e Periódicos CAPES, utilizando as palavras-chaves “afasia”, “prognóstico” e “fatores” e seus correspondentes em inglês. Foram incluídos artigos publicados entre 2005 e 2015, em português, inglês ou francês, que relacionassem o prognóstico da afasia a uma variável (fator). Resultados: Foram selecionados 15 artigos, nos quais foram identificados 29 fatores prognósticos. Destes, os mais citados foram idade, extensão e local da lesão, sexo e escolaridade. No entanto, idade, sexo e escolaridade não foram considerados como significantes para a previsão do prognóstico na maioria dos artigos. Discussão: Em geral, as pesquisas que envolvem fatores prognósticos relacionados às afasias são analisadas sob uma perspectiva organicista, o que leva à homogeneização dos pacientes e das manifestações sintomáticas de linguagem, desconsiderando os aspectos subjetivos e sociais em favor dos aspectos orgânicos. Isto se deve à uma concepção específica de cura e sucesso terapêutico, sendo refletida na escolha da metodologia da pesquisa. Conclusão: Faz-se necessário estudar os aspectos subjetivos e sociais, através de um olhar clínico que contemple a pluralidade sintomática. Para isso, um método qualitativo de pesquisa seria mais indicado.

Desenvolvimento da linguagem na síndrome de Down: análise da literatura
Authors: Lima Ivonaldo Leidson Barbosa , Delgado Isabelle Cahino , Cavalcante Marianne Carvalho Bezerra
Published: July 2017

A síndrome de Down é uma condição genética resultante da presença extra de um cromossomo 21, que pode gerar diversos problemas de saúde durante o desenvolvimento do sujeito. Uma dessas alterações é o atraso no desenvolvimento da linguagem e cognição da criança, que apresenta um déficit maior na linguagem expressiva do que na compreensiva. Por isso, a intervenção fonoaudiológica precoce é essencial para a promoção de uma melhor habilidade comunicativa do sujeito com a síndrome. Nesse sentido, este estudo objetivou analisar as produções científicas nacionais acerca do desenvolvimento da linguagem e comunicação na síndrome de Down e intervenções precoces nessa população. Para isso, foi realizada uma busca em bases de dados de artigos, teses e dissertações, utilizando a combinação dos descritores “linguagem”, “síndrome de Down” e “desenvolvimento da linguagem”. Foram obtidas 106 publicações que tiveram seus títulos e resumos analisados. Após essa análise inicial, foi identificado que 20 estudos contemplavam a temática pesquisada, estes foram analisados integralmente. Constatou-se que é consensual a presença de um déficit no desenvolvimento da linguagem, quando comparado com o processo de crianças com desenvolvimento típico; que há um maior uso das produções gestuais nessa população e isso pode favorecer a aquisição lexical; e que a intervenção fonoaudiológica é eficaz no desenvolvimento da linguagem na síndrome de Down.
Identification of Photovoltaic Array Model Parameters. Modelling and Experimental Verification
Authors: I. Houssamo  , M. Sechilariu  , F. Locment  , G. Friedrich
Published: July 2017

. This paper aims to identify the model parameters
of a photovoltaic array installed in our experimental platform.
Two methods used for parameters identification in order to
characterize the photovoltaic array are compared. Based on the
electrical equivalent circuit of the photovoltaic cell, the
mathematical model is deduced. From the data-sheet values,
given by the manufacturer, we were able to determine the
parameters of this model. On the other hand, the second method
was applied by using one of the least squares fitting approaches.
The measurement of the outdoor solar irradiance, cell
temperature and current taken by dSPACE controller board and
for a constant terminal voltage level includes the necessary data
to be fitted with the model. The implementation of two methods
in MATLAB provides the model parameters which have to
minimize as soon as possible the error involved between the
calculated and measured output current. For the minimum
obtained error, the corresponding method is the best one for the
photovoltaic array characterization.

- This work aims at studying an ideal capacity market
model, a free-market competition model that allows all entities
to commercialize power. The proposed capacity market
differentiates itself from other market models mainly through
implementing the possibility of any energy entity to participate.
This new model allows a domestic consumer to become
consumer and producer of capacity at the same time.
This work focuses on the limits of wind penetration in the
power network and the creation of a capacity market that allows
the commercialization of domestic capacity. It is also addressed
the contribution of capacity market for the electrical system and
its actors.

The paper introduces the issue of the typical
defects present in PV-cell. Typical defects are introduced for
two different technologies of photovoltaic devices: the
multicrystal Silicon and the amorphous Silicon one. The defects
have been implemented on a tridimensional model of a well
operating cell implemented in Comsol Multiphysics
environment. The aim of the paper is to simulate the behaviour
of possible defect as they are pointed out by means of
thermography. Defects have been modelled as they are
described in literature and implemented into the model of
photovoltaic cells. A multiphysical analysis, needed to study the
effects of the defects on the cell behaviour, has been conducted
using utilities available in Comsol environment.
Self-Powered Passive Adaptive Control of Pitch Angle and Betz-Shaped Wind Tunnel
Authors: S. C. Li
Published: July 2017

Owing to both the high cost and the complexity,
for small turbines, the control of pitch angle is usually not a
option though it could keep turbine working in high efficiency
zone while wind speed changes.
In order to solve this problem, a self-powered passive adaptive
control system (SPACS) for pitch angle adjustment has been
developed. Together with this SPACS idea, a Betz-shaped wind
tunnel has also been developed which can reduce the size and
running cost significantly if compared with conventional wind
tunnels. In this paper the main technical principles will be
presented together with some conceptual sketches and initial
results.
Renewable Marine Energies in Galicia: Potential and Monitoring Tools
Authors: Primitivo B. González  , Santiago Martín  , Ana Álvarez  , Cristina Anido
Published: July 2017

The energy debate is characterized by the
consideration of a great variety of arguments. However,
nowadays, a certain consensus is reached when demanding the
necessary coexistence of different generation sources in the
energy mix, in order to guarantee the supply, hold the costs or
reduce the CO2 emissions. Considering this framework, the use
of renewable energies seems to be obvious: they are abundant,
domestic and their contribution to the fight against the climate
change is unquestionable.
The ocean, covers a 75 % of the earth’s surface, represents a
huge reserve of solar and gravitational energy, still to be
exploited, estimated in a minimum value of 25.000 GW. The
waves, tides and winds of the seas that border the north coast of
the Iberian Peninsula are rough and offer a huge kinetic energy
potential. Furthermore, Galicia benefits from its consolidated
shipbuilding and maritime tradition and port infrastructures, its
experience in the onshore wind energy sector, as well as from
the available industrial resources and technologies.
By analysing previous reports, the present paper aims to
identify the Galicia potential for the use of renewable marine
energies, specifically coming from waves, tidal streams and
offshore winds, and provide monitoring tools for the
surveillance of critical elements, as well as for R&D funding
sources.

Analysis of the Radiation from a Complex Multi-Conductor Transmission Line
Authors: F. Hassoun  , G. Bousaleh  , R. Hage Chehade
Published: July 2017

The Deployment of Power Line Transmission
(PLT) and the development of new broadband services over the
telephone network through technology like xDSL (x Digital
Subscriber Line), requires higher data rates, consequently
higher bandwidths, and operating frequencies. So it is generally
accompanied with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
phenomena, in particular the radiated emissions associated to
the deployed system and used cables characteristics. In fact the
electrical cable presents variations in their geometry, causing an
increase in the electromagnetic radiation. This paper presents a
theoretical approach to study a complex transmission line
network over ground plane. This approach leads to an analytical
expression for the evaluation of P.U.L. parameters of finite
length twisted wires lines. These expressions give the
capacitances and the inductances values in every point of the
cable, the theoretical results are compared to measurements.
The formalism is also derived to determine the distribution of
the electromagnetic field radiated by Shielded or Unshielded
Twisted Pair cables with discontinuity. The obtained results are
compared to those provided by a code based on the antenna
theory.
Ambient RF Energy Harvesting
Authors: D. BOUCHOUICHA  , F. DUPONT  , M. LATRACH  , L.VENTURA
Published: July 2017

In this paper, we present a study of ambient RF energy harvesting
techniques. The measurement of the ambient RF power density is
presented. The average of the density in broadband (1GHz-
3.5GHz) is in the order of -12dBm/m² (63µW/m²). Two systems
have been studied to recover the RF energy. The first is a
broadband system without matching circuit. The second is a
narrow band system (1.8-1.9GHz) with a matching circuit. The
rectifier circuit RF / DC and the choice of the load to optimize
the DC power recovered are presented.
The preliminary results indicate that the recovered energy is not
sufficient to directly power devices but could be stored in a
super-capacity or micro-batteries.

Published: July 2017

The difficulties facing electric utility
companies to satisfy on-site customer power demand
aroused an increasing interest in small distributed
generators (DG). Also the environmental concerns, the
technology evolution and the need to integrate renewable
energy resources into distribution system gave way to the
construction of (DG) using alternative energy sources.
The presence of such new generators creates new
operating conditions for the interconnected system. The
aim of the paper is to study the impacts of faults on
stability in systems with (DG) and their satiability during
faults. In this paper, the impact of different types of faults
at various locations on a distribution system with and
without the presence of (DG) is studied. The IEEE 13
node distribution test feeder is used as a model for the
study together with synchronous generator (DG). The
simulation of the distribution system and the (DG) is
performed using PSCAD software. A comparison
between fault currents with and without the insertion of
the DG is carried. The effect of such faults on the
stability of the used DG is considered taking into account
the control actions expected for the system to remain
within the stability limit.
A Modular Architecture for Energy Efficient Wireless Sensor Networks Nodes
Authors: José Catela  , Rui Rocha  , Moisés Piedade
Published: July 2017

The current evolution of Wireless Sensor
Networks (WSN) has led us towards real world problems such
as the power supply of network nodes in an efficient and
sustained way. The actual implementation of these networks
calls for perpetually powered devices, since the constant
changing of the batteries is not a realistic scenario. That is the
main motivation behind the proposal of this new architecture,
having the low power consumption as a key objective and an
intelligent interaction with power supply modules.
The energy efficiency of this platform comes from three
different factors: the use of a last generation ultra low-power
microcontroller, the use of different communication modes and
the intelligent interaction with a harvesting module able to
perpetually supply energy to the network nodes. Hence, the
modularity of this platform, allowing for independent
development of its components, is a very important
characteristic.
We present and discuss the major features of the proposed
architecture, such as the used processor, how the modularity is
achieved and how we intend to implement the energy solutions.
Fault Location and Compensation of the Harmonic Content of the Residual Fault Current during Single-Phase to Ground Faults in Compensated Networks
Authors: András M. Dán  , Dávid Raisz
Published: July 2017

Ground fault location in compensated networks
has been considered as a challenging task until recently. Several
methods have been elaborated, most of them have not been able
to prove their capability under field conditions, or they are too
expensive or complicated.
This paper presents a new fault location technique, which uses
current injection parallel to the Petersen coil. Simulation and
field test results show the accuracy of the method. The injecting
device is further used to decrease the harmonics in the residual
fault current. This zero sequence active filtering method is
analyzed in detail using computer simulations and compared to
field test results.

The economic crisis is usually studied from
points of view of economic growth evolution, of employment
creation / loss, etc.
This paper is oriented from a technological perspective. In it,
the evolution of several of the most significant variables in the
load curve is studied, before and during the crisis of the Spanish
economy. So, the aim of this paper is to identify the economic
crisis throughout the analysis of the power curve demand of an
urban low voltage (LV) substation. The analysis is centred on
the most representative characteristics of the profiles which
have changed, comparing the load curve of days with similar
meteorological variables.
All the conclusions are extracted from the study of a real
database, generated from the measures taken by means of a
power quality analyzer, in a “representative” LV substation,
from the year 2000 until the present. The main conclusion is
that the economic crisis has been reflected in the power curve
demand.
Performance prediction of a centrifugal pump working in direct and reverse mode using Computational Fluid Dynamics

Published: July 2017

The operation of centrifugal pumps as centripetal
turbines can be useful to produce cheap energy in rural zones or
developing nations. However, the optimum coupling between
the flow and the geometry of the machine cannot be kept in
reverse working conditions, and hence the flow instabilities are
expected to be much higher. This paper presents a numerical
investigation on the unsteady flow in a commercial centrifugal
pump operating in direct (pump) and reverse (turbine) mode.
Numerical simulations were conducted for several flow rates to
investigate the properties of the global flow within the machine.
The numerical model was additionally used to estimate the
radial load on the impeller, as a function of flow rate, for both
modes of operation.

Published: July 2017

Nowadays, different control strategies, to
regulate Photovoltaic (PV) maximum power point are
available. This paper is focused on the modeling of PV
power conversion chains considering the PV panel, its
associated power conversion stage and the load as a sole
system. Furthermore, two control strategies have been
proposed for the resulting non-linear system. These
controllers are calculated to mitigate input and load
disturbances. In addition, the proposed model and its
underlying control strategy is used with a P&O MPPT
algorithm to show the feasibility in advanced control
strategies for PV systems.

Published: July 2017

A formação de professores está relacionada às escolhas político-pedagógicas diante de determinadas concepções de sociedade, de homem e de educação. Ante essa premissa, são analisadas as políticas públicas referentes à formação de professores, especialmente os de educação especial, e suas relações com o “Plano Nacional de Educação Proposta da Sociedade Brasileira” (PNE-Coned), elaborado pela comissão organizadora do II Congresso Nacional de Educação (Coned), em 1997. A metodologia adotada foi a análise documental. Conclui-se que as políticas públicas referentes à formação de professores em vigor no Brasil parecem não contribuir efetivamente com esses processos em um viés emancipatório. Os resultados também apontam que o PNE-Coned, elaborado coletivamente por associações e entidades da sociedade civil, apresenta metas e diretrizes ainda contemporâneas para os processos de formação de professores.
