The rapid economic growth in China has promoted the development of all walks of life. The most prominent is the construction industry. The safety management of the project construction during the construction process is very important. If there is a safety problem in construction, it will not only affect the progress of the construction, but serious loss of people and property will occur. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the safety management of the construction. Therefore, we should strengthen the management of safety management and improve the prevention of safety technology. Only under the premise of safety can the progress of the construction work be normal and the requirements of the project before the design are reached. Today we are in the engineering construction safety management problem is analyzed, and the problems of construction safety management is put forward rationalization proposals, prevent the occurrence of all kinds of problems in the engineering construction, to ensure security in project construction.

For a country, the industry is a very important system, the embodiment of the country's comprehensive national strength, the country's economic development level and the development of science and technology level has direct impact on industry. The development of chemical industry also has great impetus to the national economic development. The technical requirements for chemical engineering are particularly high. Because of the danger of the chemical itself, safety becomes the first thing to notice in the construction process. In order to prevent the occurrence of danger in the actual construction process, the safety of chemical engineering construction is made, and the effective safety management is the most critical step. A reliable safety management is the guarantee for the smooth construction of the construction, so the early safety management becomes the key to the development of the chemical industry. Chemical engineering is an extremely complex and changeable system, and the kinds of problems involved are very many, which requires the construction personnel to pay more attention to ensure the safety. In order to implement the safety management measures in the process of chemical engineering construction, it is necessary for the management personnel to strictly control the whole construction process. In case of any problem, we should deal with it in a timely manner and pay more attention to the details. We should pay attention to fire prevention, pollution prevention and anti-explosion prevention. Technical personnel should pay more attention to technical problems and eliminate safety hazards. The construction company must also strengthen the personal quality of the project management personnel and other issues. It is necessary to examine personal responsibility and safety awareness and avoid unnecessary losses caused by various construction safety issues to the company[1].

APRESENTAÇÃO: SOCIEDADE E CONHECIMENTO EM DEBATES
Authors: Araújo Wagner dos Reis Marques
Published: July 2018

Este primeiro volume da Revista Relações Sociais surge em um momento suigenerisdo Brasil. Lamentavelmente, assistimos a uma crise econômica, institucional e político-moral sem precedentes, após termos experimentado um período de relativa estabilidade econômica e social jamais experimentada no período pós-redemocratização do país. Período no qual houve avanços bem significativos nas áreas da educação, ciência e tecnologia, embora tenham persistido altos índices de desigualdades sociais e, sobremaneira, de gênero expressas especialmente em termos da ausência de equidade de acesso à educação gratuita de qualidade, à renda mínima e ao pleno emprego. De modo que experimentamos até há pouco tempo um período de estabilidade que sinalizou avanços nas diferentes áreas sociais. Nesse momento conturbado, a REVES surge como um espaço de comunicação e reflexão de estudos, experiências e pesquisas acadêmicas que demarcam a preocupação da Academia com questões filosóficas, políticas e sociais que perpassam as minorias sub-representadas e despossuídas de direitos sociais básicos. Neste número que inaugura a revista, a satisfação maior é destacar a participação de jovens pesquisadores das diferentes regiões brasileiras, que nos prestigiaram com abordagens teórico-epistemológicas que contemplam estudos por questões sociais, por exemplo, o debate feminista, as relações de poder, as dinâmicas sociais de resistência, entre outras.
CURRÍCULO EM SERVIÇO SOCIAL: CONSTRUÇÃO E DESAFIOS CONTEMPORÂNEOS
Authors: Andrade Roberta Ferreira Coelho de , Corrêa Ana Paula Dias , Gama Rayanne Roque
Published: July 2018

O objetivo deste artigo é problematizar o currículo como construção social, que direciona a formação profissional e deve estar conectado às necessidades e ao movimento da sociedade. Interessa-nos dar destaque à sua construção no âmbito do Serviço Social, uma profissão que se redesenhou ao longo de sua trajetória sócio-histórica na sociedade brasileira. A metodologia se sustenta nas pesquisas bibliográfica e documental, as quais nos permitem reconhecer que os conteúdos curriculares do Serviço Social já foram predominantemente influenciados por variadas correntes de pensamento, como o neotomismo, o positivismo, o funcionalismo e, atualmente, o marxismo. Na contemporaneidade, temos um currículo voltado para atender as demandas das classes subalternas, construído a partir da união da categoria de assistentes sociais, baseando-se no tripé que sustenta a profissão, a saber: Lei de Regulamentação da Profissão, Código de Ética Profissional do Assistente Social e Diretrizes Curriculares. No entanto, este currículo não está plenamente materializado, e tem sofrido diversos ataques, devido à tendência de mercantilização do ensino superior no atual contexto brasileiro. Esta tendência conduz à construção de um novo perfil de profissional, com uma formação mais restrita, mais técnica, mais instrumental, uma perspectiva que vai na contramão do projeto coletivamente construído pela categoria nos anos 1990.
O “ACONTECIMENTO” COMO PROCEDIMENTO DA VERDADE NA PERSPECTIVA ONTOLÓGICA DE ALAIN BADIOU
Authors: Araujo Wagner dos Reis Marques , Siqueira Antonio Marcos de Oliveira
Published: July 2018

Esta discussão é uma tentativa de delineamento de alguns aspectos básicos da ontologia e da concepção do pensamento político elaborado por Alain Badiou, um filósofo francês contemporâneo, que vem se destacando na construção de uma filosofia política que se propõe a recuperar o ideal emancipatório que, na sua perspectiva, há algum tempo foi abandonado pelos filósofos - em especial os franceses. Inicialmente expõem-se aspectos da trajetória intelectual e do engajamento político do filósofo que, sem sombras de dúvidas, confirmam uma perspectiva político-filosófico voltada para a práxis. Num segundo momento, procura-se apresentar os conceitos de verdade, acontecimento e a concepção de ontologia do filósofo.  Nisso, conclui-se que as questões fundamentais da filosofia de Badiou são ontológicas e não epistemológicas, de fato a investigação badiouano é sobre o ser, a verdade e o sujeito, e não tanto sobre as condições de construção do conhecimento a partir da experiência possível.
ETIMOLOGIA DO LATIM NO ENSINO DE SOCIOLOGIA: PALAVRAS E GENEALOGIA
Authors: Lopes Ricardo Cortez
Published: July 2018

Este trabalho trata da inserção da etimologia do latim em aulas de sociologia. Ela aparece em nosso processo didático através da ilustração da origem de palavras que são de uso corrente nos dias atuais, como, por exemplo “trabalho”, que vem de “tripalium”, e há um sentido cultural para essa transformação, também abordada pela metodologia, mesmo que de maneira não exaustiva, como seria em outras disciplinas. Pretendemos, a partir desse enfoque, gerar uma genealogia, no sentido da epistemologia foucaultiana, que mostra a utilização de uma palavra (ou um conceito) através da dimensão diacrônica para deduzir como as palavras são portadoras de relações de poder de muitas naturezas. Assim, as relações sociais, fundadas em processos comunicativos, perdem seu status de estabelecidas ao mostrar que a língua não é só um vínculo de transmissão, mas sim que possui a incorporação de muitas dimensões culturais e históricas que afetam a nossa própria experiência da vivência social.

Authors: Trindade Filipe S. , Filho Alfeu J. Sguarezi , Jacomini Rogério V. , Ruppert Ernesto
Published: July 2018

This paper proposes a decoupled control of active and reactive power for doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG) bu using the rotor current control loop and sliding mode control (SMC). In order to decouple the active and reactive power generated, stator-fluxoriented vector control is applied. The sliding mode control strategy proposes is based on two sliding modes plus PI controllers whose main advantage is the easy implementation. Simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the proposed control scheme for a 2 kW DFIG during stator active and reactive power steps and rotor speed variation. During transient operation it is checked good dynamic response.

Gestão de Resíduos Sólidos e Compostagem Orgânica: Estudo de Caso para Escolha de Tecnologia de Processo em Macaé, Brasil
Authors: Crivelaro Ana Luiza Rivello , Moreira Marcos Antonio Cruz , Da Silva José Augusto Ferreira
Published: July 2018

Os resíduos sólidos têm sido um grande desafio para o poder público. No Brasil, esta problemática tem sido cada vez mais discutida tanto no âmbito jurídico, em normativas e legislações, como também nas práticas de gestão que envolvem sociedade, empresas e instituições de ensino. A promulgação da Política Nacional dos Resíduos Sólidos, no ano de 2010, determinou a desativação dos lixões visando à disposição ambientalmente adequada, em aterros sanitários, dos resíduos cujas possibilidades técnicas e econômicas de tratamento já se esgotaram. De acordo com pesquisa feita pela ABRELPRE (2012), aproximadamente 51,4% dos Resíduos Sólidos Urbanos (RSU) no Brasil são formados por resíduo orgânico, sendo essa fração cabível de tratamento através da compostagem e biodigestão. As Instituições de Ensino possuem papel fundamental no desenvolvimento de novas técnicas, sendo um laboratório de ideias sempre em busca de soluções. Buscou-se com esta pesquisa analisar equipamentos e propor um modelo de planta de compostagem para a gestão de resíduos orgânicos do IFFluminense Campus Macaé. De acordo com a realidade do Instituto, conclui-se que a tecnologia de processo ideal é a constituída por um tambor com perfurações que propiciam melhor aeração.

Authors: Paiva Dagmara , Silva Susana , Severo Milton , Moura-Ferreira Pedro , Lunet Nuno , Azevedo Ana
Published: July 2018

Introduction: In Portugal, health literacy has started to be addressed through national policies, but research on the topic is still scarce. We aimed to estimate the prevalence and sociodemographic correlates of limited health literacy in Portugal using an existing health literacy instrument, the Newest Vital Sign.Materials and Methods: Following cross-cultural adaptation of the instrument, a sample of 249 participants was evaluated to assess reliability and construct validity of the Newest Vital Sign; the latter was tested assuming physicians would score highest, followed by health researchers, then by engineering researchers and finally by laypersons from the general population. We applied this validated version in a representative sample of 1544 Portuguese-speaking residents in Portugal aged between 16 and 79 years and quantified the associations between limited health literacy and sociodemographic characteristics.Results: The instrument showed high reliability (Cronbach’s α = 0.85). Health-related occupation showed association with higher scores in the Newest Vital Sign (p trend < 0.001). The prevalence of limited health literacy in the Portuguese population was 72.9% (95% CI: 69.4 - 76.4). We found no differences between men and women, but persons with limited health literacy were significantly older (p < 0.001) and less educated (p < 0.001).Discussion: The burden of limited health literacy in Portugal is higher than that in other European countries. It should drive a universal precautions approach to health communication at all levels of the health system.Conclusion: We validated a brief and simple instrument and estimated the prevalence of limited health literacy in the literate Portuguese population at roughly three out of four people.

Published: July 2018

This paper discusses some barriers, complexities, and opportunities Indigenous peoples face when engaging in language revitalization efforts, and how those elements contribute to the adoption, adaptation, or abandonment of digital technology. I begin with framing the context of Indigenous languages in the United States and Canada to underscore the current realities in comparison to world languages. The next section introduces the uptake of digital technology for Indigenous language learning, based on the themes of equity, access, and engagement. I conclude with a case study of the Hawaiian language community as a potential model for Indigenous communities that choose traditional and contemporary pathways.
Considerations for Design and Production of Digital Books for Early Literacy in Ethiopia
Authors: Dobson Teresa M. , Asselin Marlene , Abebe Alemu
Published: July 2018

This paper considers the implications of digital text production models for the development of reading materials for emergent and early readers in the Ethiopian context. We draw from several theoretical frameworks and also from comments of Ethiopian academics, writers, and publishers to ground descriptions of Ethiopian contexts of language and literacy. We then present three different models for the production and curation of digital stories for children and contemplate how these models align with existing literacy traditions and practices. We also raise questions about the potential effects on the development of literary culture and children’s literature in Ethiopia of projects aimed at rapidly producing large corpora of literature for children. Ultimately, we pose complicated cultural and linguistic questions that need to be taken into consideration to provide appropriate and original early literacy materials in Ethiopia.

Capitalismo e racionalidade instrumental: reflexões acerca do tempo livre em Theodor Adorno
Authors: Rocha André Campos
Published: July 2018

O artigo analisa a relação entre trabalho e tempo livre no capitalismo segundo as reflexões sociológicas de Theodor W. Adorno. Defende-se que o tema é indissociável do diagnóstico contido na Dialética do Esclarecimento acerca da predominância, no desenvolvimento social do Ocidente, de uma razão de tipo instrumental. Neste contexto, com sua separação da esfera do trabalho, as atividades de tempo livre, paródias da liberdade, serviriam ao objetivo funcional de recuperar as forças dos sujeitos para reintroduzi-los no processo de trabalho. Ao final, mostra-se porque a arte para Adorno contém um potencial de crítica à sociedade reificada.

The Effect of Functional Group Polarity in Palladium Immobilized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Catalysis: Application in Carbon-Carbon Coupling Reaction
Authors: Chandra B. P. , Wu Zheqiong , Ntim Susana Addo , G. Nageswara Rao , Mitra Somenath
Published: July 2018

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are effective supports for nano metals and together they represent hybrids that combine unique properties of both. A microwave induced reaction was used to deposit nano palladium on carboxylated and octadecylamine functionalized multiwall CNTs, which were used to carry out C-C coupling reactions in DMF and toluene. These hybrids showed excellent catalytic activity with yield as high as 99.8% while its enhancement with respect to commercially available Pd/C catalyst reached as high as 109%, and the reactions times were significantly lower. Polarity of the functionalized form was found to be a significant factor with the polar carboxylated CNT showing better activity in DMF while the relatively nonpolar octadecyl amine was better in toluene. The results suggest the possibility of tailor making functionalized CNT when used as catalyst supports
24-Methylenecycloartanyl Ferulate Induces PPAR-γ2 Mediated Regulation of Angiogenesis-Related Genes and Inhibits Akt/mTOR Signaling

Published: July 2018

We investigated the effect and molecular mechanism of 24-MCF-induced PPAR-γ2 on angiogenesis-related genes in MCF7 cells. cDNA microarray, semi-quantitative reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, and western blotting revealed that 24-MCF mediated the expression of genes related to angiogenesis in MCF-7 cells. Luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that promoter activation of the LIF gene, an anti-angiogenesis factor, was increased upon PPAR-γ2 overexpression and 24-MCF treatment, whereas activation of HoxA7 and VEGF promoters, known pro-angiogenesis factors, decreased upon PPAR-γ2 overexpression and 24-MCF treatment. We identified PPAR-response elements (PPRE) located in the VEGF (-913 to +1), HoxA7 (-1107 to +1), and LIF promoter regions (-9032 to -8403). VEGF promoter activity was abolished by mutation of the PPRE motif. Treatment with 24-MCF inhibited expression of VEGF and inhibited the Akt/mTOR pathway. Treatment with 24-MCF also decreased VEGF secretion in MCF7 cells and PMA-stimulated tube formation in HUVECs. Our findings suggest that 24-MCF induces PPAR-γ2-mediated regulation of anti-angiogenesis via PPRE motifs in VEGF, HoxA7, and LIF promoters or upstream regions. Furthermore, 24-MCF treatment inhibits angiogenesis by blocking VEGF secretion.
