The Development of Urban and Peasant Trade in Russia at the End of the XVIII Century. (Case-Study of the Vladimir Viceroyalty)
Authors: Lyapanov Artem
Published: November 2023

The article examines the development of domestic trade in the Russian Empire in the context of the provincial reform of 1775, using the example of the Vladimir Viceroyalty. The new administrative-territorial unit lacked uyezd (county) centers. Seven villages and settlements were renamed cities. However, according to the economic situation, the locals clearly did not correspond to their new status. The government found itself in a dilemma when, on the one hand, it was forced to support the class rights of merchants and philistines, limiting peasant trade geographically and in the assortment of goods. On the other hand, it could not but take advantage of the economic activity of the peasants, luring out the richest of them to the cities, thereby contributing to the development of peasant trade.
“Open” Trade in the Provision System of the Population of Bashkiria in 1935–1941
Authors: Antoshkin Anatoly
Published: November 2023

The study examined the state of retail trade in Bashkiria in the pre-war period using the archive materials. The functioning of “open” forms of trade after the abolition of the card distribution system in the USSR is one of the topics poorly developed in regional historiography. Meanwhile, state and cooperative trade enterprises in Bashkiria gained unique experience in fulfilling trade turnover plans in combination with a free regime for the purchase and sale of goods. As a result of the study, it was established that the percentage of implementation of trade turnover plans had significant discrepancies with the projected indicators, which is largely explained by the inability of trade and industry enterprises within the framework of the plan to quickly respond to changes in the demand of the urban and rural population of the republic. In the presence of a chronic shortage in retail and warehouse networks, there is a clear tendency towards an increase in excess inventory balances. Trade enterprises in Bashkiria slowly adapted to the changed form of supply to the population, there were numerous violations of the principles of Soviet trade, and the level of customer service culture remained low. Disadvantages and violations in trade in Bashkiria have become systemic in nature.
Stimulating the Labor of Workers in the Siberian Military Industry (1941–1945): Strategies and Practices
Authors: Romanov Roman
Published: November 2023

The study identified labor incentives used for workers in the defense industry of Siberia during the Great Patriotic War. We found that in the sphere of personnel retention in military production, strategies of repressive coercion and social security of personnel functioned criminal punishments and a set of social and everyday activities were used as motivating practices, respectively. In the field of increasing labor productivity, strategies of monetary, rewards and ideological motivation were used in combination. Incentive practices included stimulating wage systems, priority provision of consumer goods and services to frontline workers, a hierarchy of honorary titles and symbolic awards. We concluded that in the Soviet system of labor motivation of the 1941–1945 model the moral incentives reinforced by Stakhanov’s material “bonuses” were primarily used.

This article problematises the media used for delivery of curriculum at the onset of lockdowns due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, which resulted in a sudden cessation of all face-to-face teaching and learning at a South African university. The article reports on how the otherwise neutral WhatsApp social media platform was appropriated to become a serious teaching tool for mathematics and science pre-service teacher educators. The study draws predominantly on connectivism learning theory to understand how WhatsApp was used to continue the teaching of mathematics and science during the Covid-19 lockdowns. The sample consisted of 10 mathematics and science teacher educators from whom data were collected through authentic conversations and questionnaires. The article reports on the affordances and constraints the WhatsApp platform presented, as well as how it reshaped the teaching of mathematics and science. Findings indicate that teacher educators transformed the use of WhatsApp from a social media tool to a tool for supporting teaching. However, being a social tool, WhatsApp does have affordances and constraints when used for teaching. The affordances include ease of access and ease of use, while constraints include the risk of students not possessing smartphones and intrusion into the personal lives of teacher educators.
Home is where the art is? Reflections on changing notions of home and contemporary art practices in the wake of the pandemic
Authors: Millner Jacqueline
Published: November 2023

How has the pandemic changed ideas of home, and how have artists responded to these changes? This article considers the implications of Covid-19's impact on notions of home for contemporary art practices, with a focus on the experience of woman-identifying artists, given the gendered politics of home. Many artists have been forced to rethink how they work in response to the pandemic's effects on freedom of movement, financial security, and exhibition opportunities. In the broader community, 'working from home' has resurged with added legitimacy. To the more optimistic social analysts, Covid-19 has offered an opportunity for a major reset of work practices, but evidence suggests that the pandemic has doubled down on the unpaid care burden of women. For some woman-identifying artists, such developments have become the tipping point for exiting the industry; others have rendered their work almost entirely digital; for yet others it has provided the official imprimatur for long-developed sustaining strategies. I analyse how notions of home have been explored in contemporary art, reflect on how Covid-19 has challenged conventional experiences of home, and discuss examples of artistic practice that have adapted to these changes to examine what 'working from home' might entail in the wake of Covid-19.

Authors: Derly M. Martira  , Roger B. Rueda
Published: November 2023

This research study, conducted within the past year, delved into the intricate interplay between learning and teaching styles in the context of graduate school education. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study sought to identify, analyze, and facilitate the alignment of these styles to enhance the quality of graduate education. The investigation began with an exploration of the predominant learning styles among graduate students, revealing a diverse spectrum including diverging, assimilating, converging, and accommodating preferences. This diversity highlighted the importance of recognizing individual differences in learning styles within this student cohort. Educators in graduate schools employed a range of teaching styles and pedagogical approaches, including lectures, case studies, group discussions, and hands-on experiments. The diversity of teaching methods demonstrated a willingness among educators to adapt to varying learning needs and promote student engagement. However, the study unveiled a significant finding: there was not always perfect alignment between students' learning styles and educators' teaching styles. This misalignment emphasized the need for greater awareness and adaptation to cater to the diverse learning preferences of graduate students. The impact of this alignment, or lack thereof, was evident in student engagement and academic performance. When there was congruence between learning and teaching styles, students reported higher levels of engagement and satisfaction. Diverse teaching methods challenged students and prepared them to adapt to varying educational environments. Academic performance was notably influenced by the degree of alignment between learning and teaching styles, emphasizing the significance of tailored teaching approaches. The study concludes with a set of recommendations aimed at optimizing the alignment between learning and teaching styles in graduate school education. These recommendations encompass faculty pedagogical training, flexible curriculum design, student-centered learning, regular assessment and feedback mechanisms, faculty collaboration, technology integration, awareness campaigns, mentorship programs, research and assessment initiatives, and the promotion of inclusive learning environments. In summary, this research underscores the complex and dynamic relationship between learning and teaching styles in graduate education. Recognizing the diversity of learning preferences among graduate students and promoting adaptability in teaching methods are critical steps toward optimizing the graduate education experience. The findings contribute to ongoing discussions on pedagogical practices and their impact on student success in graduate school education, offering valuable insights for educators, administrators, and policymakers.

Inflammation, a natural defence mechanism against injury or infection, can become problematic when it fails to resolve, as observed in conditions like periodontitisThis review explores how inflammation is resolved in periodontitis and seeks potential treatments for this chronic condition, which damages the periodontium, including the gingival tissue, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. The pathogenesis of this disease is initiated by the inflammatory response triggered by resident leukocytes and endothelial cells upon exposure to bacterial biofilms, resulting in vasodilation and immune cell recruitment. The review stresses the importance of researching targeted approaches for periodontitis treatment, such as inducing neutrophil apoptosis, shifting from M1 to M2 macrophages, and exploring M2-based tissue engineering. Additionally, investigating lymphangiogenesis and Treg cell recruitment at the inflammation site offers promising avenues. In conclusion, further studies are needed to refine lymphangiogenesis and assess the potential of pro-resolving lipid mediators and anti-inflammatory cytokines in managing periodontitis. Ongoing research aims to uncover the underlying biomolecular mechanisms governing immune cells and resolving mediators, with the ultimate goal of restoring tissue equilibrium and promoting healing.
Features of application of fractal Gaussian noise type signals in telecommunication systems
Authors: Levin Ya.Ya.
Published: November 2023

Problem statement. At present, the properties of a separate type of pseudorandom signals such as fractal Gaussian noise remain insufficiently investigated. The existing discrete model of fractal Gaussian noise is characterized by the value of the Hurst exponent and the time scaling factor, the influence of which on the properties of fractal Gaussian noise is insufficiently investigated. The issue of synthesis of new types of fractal broadband signals of complex design, which can be used in noise-resistant telecommunication systems, is relevant. Objective. Based on the mathematical model of fractal Gaussian noise, investigate the effect of the time scaling factor on the statistical, correlation and energy properties of fractal Gaussian noise signals. Results. By the method of averaging over realizations the dependences of energy, correlation and statistical properties of signals of fractal Gaussian noise type, which can be used for coding information bits, on the time scaling factor were obtained. Practical significance. According to the results of research on the properties of fractal Gaussian noise, the regularities of the passage of self-similar flows of Internet traffic in the approximation that they are self-similar and are described by a mathematical model of fractal Gaussian noise are established. When the intensity is increased up to requests/hour, the results of modeling the average transit time of traffic through the system for flows with different types of distribution show significant differences in the value of the average transit time of each request.
Evaluation of sequential algorithms for solving the problem of measuring the angular coordinates of low-flying radar targets
Authors: Ermakov A.K.
Published: November 2023

The problem of measuring the angular coordinates of low-flying radar targets has been known for a long time [1, 2] and is still relevant and unresolved, which is confirmed by a large number of articles that propose methods and algorithms to improve the accuracy of measuring angular coordinates, demonstrate the development of aerial objects capable of flying at low and ultra-low altitude [3, 4]. Confirmation of relevance can be seen from the recent situation [5, 6], the reason for which is the flight of helicopters at low altitude. The paper proposes a method for accounting for shading for a mathematical model of a signal reflected from a low-flying radar target and a method for forming a two-dimensional sea surface, which reduces the amount of calculations. The result of the analysis of sequential algorithms showed the lack of direction resolution, which is eliminated by the long signal accumulation time, which can be critical at high object speed. The change in frequency from pulse to pulse shortened the accumulation time, since the change in the nature of reflection affected the rate of change in the phase difference. The results of the study can be applied in the development of algorithms for measuring the angular coordinates of low-flying radar targets and their semi-natural testing.
Accuracy of tracking radio altimeters working over a 2D rough surface
Authors: Monakov A.A. , Tarasenkov A.A.
Published: November 2023

Low altitude tracking radio altimeters use periodic frequency modulated continuous signals and the altitude measurement is based on estimation of the mean frequency of the beat signal. To realize the estimation, a closed automatic control loop is organized in radio altimeter. The loop maintains the frequency of the beat signal at a fixed value by adjusting some parameters of the transmitted signal. There is one more way to build up a tracking contour for the altitude estimate, the operation of which is based on the use of a measuring phase locked loop. The circuit adjusts the reference signal ‑ a copy of the beat signal ‑ to maximize the phase structure of the beat signal and the reference signal. When measuring the height over a rough surface, in addition to errors caused by the internal noise in the receiver, the range noise begins to affect the accuracy of the estimate. The range noise is due to the formation of a signal scattered by a rough surface as sum of reflections from stationary points of the surface where the local normal is directed towards the phase center of the radio altimeter antenna. The article aim is a comparative analysis of the accuracy of three types of tracking radio altimeters working over a rough two-dimensional surface: radio altimeter with a phase-locked loop and tracking altimeters with adjustment of the frequency deviation or the modulation period of the transmitted signal. The signal reflected from a two-dimensional rough surface was simulated by the method of stationary points, which is a particular case of the Kirchhoff method. As a result of the simulation, the biases and the root-mean-square errors of height estimates were obtained for the three types of tracking altimeters and different values of the surface roughness parameter. For all altimeters, the estimate bias is small and does not depend on the roughness parameter. The root-mean-square error of height estimation for all considered radio altimeters increases with increase of the roughness parameter. The best results were shown by the radio altimeter with the measuring phase locked loop. Its error is approximately 3 times less than that of the radio altimeters with adjustment of the transmitted signal parameters.
Increasing the resolution of phased antenna arrays of the optical wave band by forming a virtual antenna array

Published: November 2023

Formulation of the problem. When solving the direction-finding problem of determining the direction to radiation sources located at an angular distance less than the width of the main lobe of the direction-finding antenna, the problem of insufficiency of resolution arises. This leads to the fact that two closely located sources will be perceived by the direction finding complex as one. Purpose. The purpose of this work is to study the possibility of solving the problem of resolution of two sources using an optical antenna array with a width of the main lobe smaller than the angular distance between the radiation sources. Results. As a solution to the problem of insufficient resolution, it is proposed to use the method of virtual antenna arrays, which consists in the formation of additional ("virtual") antenna elements using the mathematical apparatus of the Kirchhoff integral and the method of point sources. The article presents the results obtained with the help of mathematical modeling, which confirm the high efficiency of the proposed method. Practical significance. The obtained results can be used to improve the resolution of the direction finders of the optical range only due to an additional signal processing procedure, without making changes to the design of the direction-finding antenna.

Published: November 2023

Setting the problem. Analysis and assessment of the thermal mode of radioelectronic equipment (RES) in modern radioelectronic equipment is the most important task that is solved at the stage of design and development of the future device. Therefore, the choice of cooling system for heat-loaded structures is an integral component that must be solved in the early stages of design. The use of a modern set of computer-aided design tools (CAD) throughout the entire process of creating RES allows you to take into account all possible problem areas without resorting to the manufacture of a layout and prototype. Modeling of thermal characteristics and heat exchange processes provides for modeling procedures and ensuring the thermal regime mainly at the stage of design and topological design. At the same time, the analysis of thermal characteristics, as a rule, carried out after solving any design synthesis problem (placement, layout, selection and development of block structures, racks, etc.), if the modeling results are unsatisfactory, the design changes. Thus, in order to reduce time costs and reduce the iteration of the design process, it is necessary to solve the issues of ensuring the thermal regime in the early stages. Most often, the problem can be solved by increasing the area of the heat-emitting surface (radiator), but in some cases there is a need for additional cooling, in our case, additional use of liquid cooling. This is the reason for the relevance of the development of the methodology for modeling radiators of liquid cooling systems of the RES. Purpose. Present the methodology for simulating radiators of liquid cooling systems of the RES, the reliability of which could be confirmed by the results of analytical calculations and data of a full-scale experiment. Results. A mathematical statement has been formed, a modeling technique has been proposed and procedures for optimizing the cooling system have been implemented. Based on the developed 3D model of a radiator with a liquid cooling system, multivariable analysis procedures are implemented using modern computer-aided design tools. The liquid cooling system was optimized using modern software modeling tools, in particular the Solidworks Simulation program.

Authors: Neha  , Mazumder Avijit , Das Saumya , Chandel Shobhini
Published: November 2023

A common condition that puts a huge financial and morbidity burden is kidney stones. Throughout the past 20 years, the frequency of urolithiasis has increased; 5 to 15 % of people globally are affected. Calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones, which form in the renal surfaces, are the most prevalent variety. Several physicochemical processes of urinary stone constituents within tubular cells lead to the complex process of stone generation. Obese people are known to be at an increased risk of developing stones. Nephrolithiasis in women is becoming more common because of metabolic syndrome. Recent years have seen a significant change in the detection and initial treatment of urolithiasis. Calcium oxalate renal stones are the most typical type of stone proclaimed in India. Since medicinal herbs are safer, more efficient, more acceptable culturally, and have fewer side effects than produced pharmaceuticals, they have been used for treatment for millennia. Patients are recommended to follow a low-fat diet and take herbal remedies in addition to fibre from naturally occurring plants. Flavonoids are a type of plant polyphenol that has been linked to several health benefits. Recent research has revealed that plant flavonoids can significantly reduce the formation of kidney stones in vitro and in vivo, which correlates with their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, diuretic, antibacterial, and other beneficial actions. Thus, the flavonoids or extracts of flavonoid-rich plants associated with anti-urolithiasis activity were evaluated. This article emphasises the use of flavonoid-containing plants or herbs and synthetic medications to cure kidney stones. The epidemiology, mechanism of action, pathophysiology, synthetic and natural treatments for kidney stone development, and ways to reduce stone risks are all covered in this review article.

Authors: Singh Madhvi , Das Saumya , Mazumder Avijit
Published: November 2023

In ancient medical systems, the plant Thymus vulgaris L. was used widely for various medicinal purposes. The leaf portion of Thymus vulgaris L. along with its isolated active phytoconstituent thymol was studied in the management of anti-schizophrenic activity in Swiss albino mice. The present work deals with the in vivo antischizophrenic activity study of thymol by inhibition of apomorphine climbing mice and methamphetamine-induced stereotypical behaviour in mice models. Thymol was isolated from Thymus vulgaris L leaves and confirmed by TLC and FTIR spectroscopy. Experimental works included Actophotometer, mice treated with Thymus vulgaris leaves extract TVLE (50mg/kg and 100mg/kg) and its bioactive moiety thymol (5mg/kg) along with aripiprazole (1mg/kg). Investigations of the anti-schizophrenic activity of TVLE (50mg/kg and 100mg/kg) and thymol (5mg/kg) showed a significant (**p<0.01) results in both models of methamphetamine-induced stereotypy and apomorphine climbing time in experimental mice. Based on the experimental findings TVLE and thymol were shown to be very much effective as anti-schizophrenic activity. The results explained the role of thymol acting like a dopaminergic blocker or by causing a decrease in the brain’s dopamine supply to improve the schizophrenic-like behaviour in Swiss albino mice.

A fim de difundir outras técnicas construtivas além dos clássicos blocos de concreto e telhas cerâmicas muito usados no Brasil, esse trabalho visa avaliar se o sistema construtivo Light Steel Framing (LSF) combinado com a Telha Shingle  possui boa resposta térmica quando utilizada em construções com caráter residencial em zonas climáticas como Campinas-SP. Foi analisado o projeto de um sobrado para análise de desempenho térmico entre a técnicas construtivas secas (Light Steel Framing com Telha Shingle) e as úmidas sem função estrutural (Blocos de Concreto e telhas cerâmica), segundo norma de desempenho térmico NBR 15575/2013. Para tanto, modelou-se uma edificação com a extensão “Euclid” do Sketchup e utilizou-se o programa EnergyPlus a fim de considerar as propriedades dos materiais e analisá-los quanta temperatura operativa horária e indicador de graus-hora. Os resultados mostraram que o uso apenas de Paredes em Light Steel Framing não é suficientemente eficiente para as características climáticas de Campinas. Contudo, abre-se espaço para uma futura discussão sobre uma possível adaptação do formato mais conhecido para que este possa ser adotado mesmo em zonas climáticas como a de Campinas, juntamente com o uso da Telha Shingle que obteve bom resultado.

Authors: Bertoco Cristiane
Published: November 2023

O município de Bento Gonçalves, um dos berços da colonização européia no sul do Brasil, possui grande acervo arquitetônico e paisagístico do processo imigratório ocorrido entre a segunda metade do século XIX até metade do século XX. A integração de colonos camponeses, em uma terra em que somente era possível contar com os recursos naturais e conhecimentos tradicionais, deram origem a um patrimônio cultural arquitetônico e paisagístico cujas linguagens transitam do vernacular ao industrializado, integrados por uma paisagem vitivinícola específica. A gestão e a preservação desse patrimônio não dá conta de ocorrer apenas com os instrumentos tradicionais, como o tombamento, mas conta com o aporte de um Inventário que abrange todo o município, bem como um planejamento urbano que prevê instrumentos para a sua gestão, através de zonas de preservação, avaliações de impactos e conselhos municipais e distritais. O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de avaliar a legislação existente, através da sua revisão documental e de resoluções do Conselho Municipal do Patrimônio Histórico e Cultural, especialmente quanto aos níveis de preservação dos bens inventariados e regulação das Áreas de Preservação ao patrimônio e à paisagem cultural. Com isso, propõe-se uma abordagem para esses instrumentos através de uma interpretação do texto legal, em comparação com intervenções aprovadas ao longo da atuação do COMPAHC e identificadas através do diagnóstico para atualização do Inventário. O estudo aborda uma política inovadora na preservação da paisagem, assim como problematiza os diferentes níveis de intervenções possíveis.
PARTICIPAÇÃO POPULAR E PRESERVAÇÃO DO PATRIMÔNIO CULTURAL: O CASO DO THEATRO MUNICIPAL DE SÃO JOÃO DA BOA VISTA – SP.
Authors: Jeronimo Luis Pedro Dragão
Published: November 2023

O Theatro Municipal de São João da Boa Vista-SP, um dos maiores palcos culturais da região na atualidade, se viu, no início da década de 1980, ameaçado de demolição; foi nesse momento que surgiu um movimento popular contrário ao seu desaparecimento e visando sua proteção. Este artigo visa trazer à luz as discussões e examinar as ações individuais e coletivas de membros da comunidade que, ao pressionarem o poder público, conseguiram preservar não apenas um edifício, mas parte de suas histórias, memórias e identidades. Para tanto, foram analisados, à luz de trabalhos de autores consagrados que trataram do tema da preservação de bens culturais, as crônicas e notícias publicadas na imprensa local sobre o processo, conjuntamente aos documentos oficiais que possibilitaram o tombamento do edifício pelo CONDEPHAAT (Conselho de Defesa do Patrimônio Histórico, Arqueológico, Artístico e Turístico do Estado de São Paulo). Com as análises realizadas, tornou-se evidente que somente com a participação popular, as políticas de preservação, dever do Estado e amplamente necessárias para o exercício ativo da cidadania, encontrarão sucesso e cumprirão com sua missão. Neste artigo, portanto, se consolida a visão de que a política patrimonial não existe sem povo; ela deve ser feita com, para e pelos usuários, e é somente a partir da participação deles na formulação dessas políticas o que garante a salvaguarda dos bens culturais e a sua permanência para as futuras gerações.

A crescente globalização da urbanização constantemente redefine a interação entre ambientes urbanos e naturais, um desafio para atingir o desenvolvimento sustentável. A emblemática Lagoa da Conceição em Florianópolis/SC exemplifica essa complexa situação, onde a expansão urbana se entrelaça intimamente com os desafios socioambientais. Este artigo tem como objetivo examinar a relação entre o zoneamento urbano e a oferta de serviços socioambientais, enfocando a delimitação de áreas urbanizáveis e seu impacto na qualidade de vida e sustentabilidade das cidades. O método adotado buscou integrar na análise a relação do Plano Diretor com o fornecimento e manutenção de serviços socioambientais à sociedade. Dessa forma, realizou-se uma composição e quantificação de mapas específicos do Distrito da Lagoa da Conceição. O enfoque esteve nas áreas de Área Comunitária Institucional (ACI) e Área Verde de Lazer (AVL) e suas contribuições para os serviços ecossistêmicos/ambientais e sociais. Essas áreas demonstram potencial para melhorar o bem-estar da população e a sustentabilidade da região. Entretanto, observa-se uma disparidade entre os espaços de convivência social, lazer e utilidade pública em comparação com os espaços voltados ao uso individual. Isso ressalta a necessidade de reavaliar o planejamento urbano para preservar a identidade sociocultural ainda presente na área. O estudo ressalta a importância de áreas públicas acessíveis e verdes para o bem-estar da população e a sustentabilidade urbana. Suas conclusões têm o potencial de informar políticas urbanas que promovam um desenvolvimento mais harmonioso e equitativo, considerando a identidade local e a qualidade de vida
QUEM NÃO TEM VISÃO BATE A CARA CONTRA O MURO: REFLEXÕES SOBRE LAPSOS E BURACOS NOS SUBÚRBIOS FERROVIÁRIOS DO RIO DE JANEIRO

As linhas férreas nos subúrbios da região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro ordenam funcional e socialmente seus territórios, fato reforçado por seus muros que atuam como limites ou fronteiras e os segregam entre lados “de lá” e “de cá”. Nesse contexto, investigam-se locais com passados violados por linhas férreas muradas onde a continuidade de eixos importantes para a experiência de bairro foi interrompida com a passagem do trem. Esses locais são chamados neste trabalho de lapsos. Como reações subversivas em resposta aos transtornos causados por eles e à ausência do poder público em solucioná-los, enfatizam-se os buracos, travessias clandestinas sobre os trilhos criadas, usadas e mantidas por suburbanos. Os buracos desconstroem a natureza divisora dos muros ferroviários e revelam relações dinâmicas entre corpos e morfologia urbana que recursos predominantes de domínio e representação das paisagens, como mapas, não são capazes de captar. Por isso, opta-se pela fotografia como método de leitura paisagística que captura essas relações identificadas em experiências com as paisagens. Essas experiências ocorreram através de derivas em bairros ferroviários no município do Rio de Janeiro. A abordagem qualitativa etnográfica utilizada neste trabalho é amparada pelo modo desviante de ver paisagístico de Jacques e Britto em oposição a um modo categórico de Lynch e Jacobs.

Os parques urbanos proporcionam um equilíbrio no desenvolvimento das cidades e sua composição arborizada está aliada às atividades de lazer, o que integra o homem à natureza. Sendo assim, os parques urbanos têm se configurado como elemento de valorização do espaço urbano com características ligadas ao bem comum de uso público. Com base nessa contextualização, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo diagnosticar a situação da atual realidade apresentada pelo Parque Florestal Antônio de Albuquerque (Horto Florestal) na catalisação do desenvolvimento sustentável em Campo Grande/MS, além de identificar a estrutura, formas de uso e a apropriação do espaço. O referencial teórico selecionado abrange a sustentabilidade catalisada por parques públicos e a transformação destes em lugares (placemaking), buscando a formação deste espaço em um local acessível, ativo, confortável, sociável e de uso ambientalmente adequado. Trata-se de uma pesquisa do tipo exploratória, descritiva, qualitativa e contextual em que se utiliza da triangulação na análise do objeto de pesquisa e da interpretação dos sujeitos envolvidos. Verifica-se a partir das análises a falta de apropriação da população em um parque que carece de muitas melhorias em sua infraestrutura. Uma das formas de dirimir tais problemas é a possibilidade de se estabelecer parcerias em um processo de co-construção entre os diferentes setores da sociedade, a fim de gerar a vitalidade para o parque e, consequentemente, alcançar o desenvolvimento sustentável.
A SINTAXE ESPACIAL COMO FERRAMENTA DE ANÁLISE PARA A REQUALIFICAÇÃO URBANA: OS VAZIOS URBANOS EM UMA CIDADE MÉDIA DO RIO GRANDE DO SUL

Published: November 2023

O modo de se conceber o espaço urbano e as cidades tem sido definida pelos interesses do capital, dos grupos dominantes e do Poder Público, resultando em fenômenos como os vazios urbanos. Os vazios urbanos são compreendidos como espaços remanescentes da dinâmica urbana, que não cumprem uma função social, e se tornam obstáculos ao desenvolvimento local e proliferadores de desigualdades. Muitas vezes localizados em áreas valorizadas e dotadas de infraestruturas urbanas, ao superar a narrativa de caráter negativo associada estes espaços, podem ser ressignificados em importantes elementos de revitalização e requalificação da paisagem urbana adotando atividades ou funções características do contexto da sociedade local e contribuindo para o desenvolvimento urbano sustentável. Partindo desta forma de interpretar a realidade da problemática dos vazios urbanos, este estudo tem como objetivo verificar os vazios urbanos presentes no município de Passo Fundo, no Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil, e por meio da Sintaxe Espacial e a teoria do Movimento Natural, analisando a configuração urbana e espacial da cidade, com a finalidade de detectar possíveis áreas ociosas com potencial de requalificação e apropriação por parte dos usuários. A metodologia utilizada consiste na análise sintática da configuração espacial do tecido urbano de Passo Fundo. Para tanto, foram elaborados mapas georreferenciados do traçado urbano da cidade e seu respectivo mapa axial, além da identificação dos vazios urbanos existentes. Nas análises da sintaxe espacial utilizou-se o software DepthMapX, desenvolvido para análises na escala urbana, a partir da malha viária e a articulação entre os elementos do espaço. Posteriormente, foram gerados mapas de conectividade, integração, escolha e profundidade do tecido urbano.

The main purpose of this study was to determine the compliance with the code of conduct and teaching performance of 347 public elementary teachers of 6th Congressional District of Negros Occidental using stratified random sampling. The descriptive research design was used. The modified survey questionnaire adapted from the study of Jongue (2010) and approved Individual Performance Commitment and Review Form (IPCRF) for S.Y. 2015-2016 was utilized to get the needed data. The data collected was analyzed using frequency and percentages, mode and Pearson-r correlation coefficient. Moreover, Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with 10 participants was utilized to enrich and supplement the results of the study. Results revealed that in terms of profile, majority of the participants were female, ages 31-40 and 11-20 years in length of service. For the teaching position, majority of the participants were Teacher 1 and Bachelor degree holders. For school location, majority of the participants were in the municipality. Furthermore, findings showed that the extent of the compliance with the code of conduct of the participants was “Always” and their overall teaching performance was very satisfactory. The study found significant differences in the variables and grouped according to the code of conduct. Finally, there were significant relationships found in various components of code of conduct and teaching performance. Recommendations on the findings for the capacity build-up of the participants in complying the code of conduct and teaching performance were given. Lastly, a Teachers Development Program (TDP) was proposed.
