Os consórcios empresariais portugueses: análise estatística da vertente económica
Authors: Machado de Almeida Bruno José
Published: August 2017

As relações de colaboração entre as empresas são frequentes, sendo o modelo de cooperação um dos fatores mais determinantes. O seu pressuposto básico é, sobretudo, económico e enfatiza a otimização das sinergias em projetos partilhados. No entanto, os consórcios empresariais analisados contratualizam exclusivamente a vertente jurídica e organizacional e ocultam a vertente económica subjacente às alianças. Desse modo, o objetivo com este trabalho está centrado na procura e explicitação das componentes da dimensão económica que as empresas melhor identificam quando adotam a figura jurídica do consórcio empresarial. Para isso, foi construído um inquérito em escala Likert e remetido a um conjunto de empresas com acordos de cooperação, no sentido de indagar o pensamento dos seus responsáveis. Em seguida, as respostas foram submetidas a uma análise estatística apropriada (média, desvio padrão, testes de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro-Wilk e Alfa de Cronbach, etc.). Os resultados obtidos sugerem que a inovação e a sustentabilidade são os fatores mais bem percecionados pelos consorciados.Palavras-chave: Cooperação empresarial. Economia. Eficiência. Internacionalização. Portugal. Abstract The relations of collaboration between the companies are frequent, and the model of cooperation one of the most crucial. His basic premise is mainly economic and emphasizes the optimization of synergies in projects that are shared. However, the business consortiums analyzed exclusively hire the legal aspect and organizational change and hide the economic aspect behind the alliances. To do so, we created a questionnaire in Likert’s scale which was given to companies with cooperation agreements to find out their managers’ thought. Subsequently, the answers were submitted to an appropriate statistical analysis (mean, standard deviation, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Shapiro-Wilk and Alfa de Cronbach tests, etc.). The result suggests that innovation and sustainability are the factors most identified by the partners.Keywords: Business cooperation. Economics. Efficiency. Internationalisation. Portugal.

Authors: Bhati Dashrath , Goyal Madhu
Published: August 2017

Sensory parameters are the basic and main attribute in acceptability of any food. Keeping this thing in view nine cultivars of pearl millet, grown in Rajasthan were evaluated for organoleptic quality. Organoleptic evaluation was done by preparing basic recipes (chappati and khichada). The result showed significant variation (P³0.05) in terms of mean scours for colour, appearance, flavour, taste and overall acceptability. All the cultivars were found to be acceptable in the form of chappati and khichada. However hybrid cultivars had better preference followed by land races and composite cultivars. Among hybrids, RHB 121 was found to be more acceptable.

Se realiza en el artículo una exposición general de dichos conceptos, para luego argumentar el modo como estos articulan y hacen verosímil una especificidad semántica del concepto de funcionario. A su vez, se realiza una breve discusión en torno al planteamiento de John Locke acerca de la libertad como paradigma contemporáneo de comprensión, mostrando su enraizamiento con la tríada mencionada.
Sexual Ethics in Pesantren Literature (Sexual Regimentation in Qurrah al-Uyun)
Authors: Munfarida Elya , Soeratno Siti Chamamah , Syamsiatun Siti
Published: August 2017

The widespread pornography has yielding enormous negative effects for especially women and their born children ranging from diseases, abortion, death, unhealthy sexual life, and so on. These excesses generate from the crisis of sexual ethics that degrade sexual acts as merely for temporary and biological objectives. Using both hermenutics and mainly discourse analysis, this paper seeks to find out the representation of sexual ethics in Qurrah al-‘Uyun and the ways subject being subjectivated in the discourse. This paper finds out that sexual regimentation in Qurrah al-‘Uyun is constituted based on the benefit of sexual act and its danger. The religious and medical precautions are established in order that subjects will follow the recommendations and avoid the cautions to hinder harmful effects the sexual acts may generate for them and their progeny. The goals of sexual acts, favorable times for progeny and pleasure and ritual for sexual acts are so much determined in line with natural, rational and religious arguments. Within this context, they have to apply self restriction and stylizing their sexual behavior according to the determined regimen either alimentary or sexual to gain benefit for future.Copyright (c) 2017 by KARSA.

Political Islam: The shrinking trend and the future trajectory of Islamic political parties in Indonesia
Authors: Umam Ahmad Khoirul , Junaidi Akhmad Arif
Published: August 2017

The trend of religious conservatism in Indonesian public sector is increasing nowadays. But the trend is not followed by the rise of political Islam‟s popularity. The Islamic political parties are precisely abandoned by their sympathizers because of some reasons. This paper tries to elaborate the reasons causing the erosion of Islamic parties‟ political legitimacy. Some fundamental problems such as inability to transform ideology into political platform, internal-factionalism, as well as the crisis of identity will be explained further. The experience from 2009 election can be used to revitalize their power and capacity for the better electability in the next 2014 election. But they seem to be unable to deal with the previous problems making the electability erosion in 2014 more potential and inevitable. Various strategies must be conducted by the parties such as consolidation, revitalizing their political communication strategy, widening political networks across various ideological and religious streams, and others. Without that, their existence would be subordinated by the secular parties to become the second class political players in this biggest Moslem country in the world.
Potensi konflik dan pembentukan modal sosial: belajar dari sebuah desa transmigran di Kalimantan Timur
Authors: Wartiharjono Sukapti
Published: August 2017

Conflicts caused by differences in cultural backgrounds and competition over natural resources among social groups in the project areas of transmigrations in Indonesia are not uncommon occurrences. This paper seeks to explore two aspects pertaining to this issue: (1) social conflict potentials among transmigrant communities particularly those between local transmigrants and the inter island transmigrants; and (2) the formation of social capital as an instrumental power in achieving and sustaining harmonious social relationship in the area in question. The research on the two subjects was a qualitative field research. In-depth interview and observation were employed in gathering data. The research had led to the finding that the conflict potentials in the observed transmigrant area were related to land distribution among transmigrant households and access to economic resources. Nonetheless, the conflict potentials did not inhibit the formation of social capital that bound all the members of the society. The result of the observation showed that a social trust has been constructed among the transmigrant settlers based on the value of cooperation or working together formutual benefit both in the daily interactions in the settlement area and in the plantation management activities. The prevalent social trust has prevented open conflict from breaking out among different ethnic social groups and hencecreated harmonious social relations
A EXPERIÊNCIA COMO CHAVE DE CONCRETIZAÇÃO E CONTINUIDADE DA IGREJA DE FRANCISCO
Authors: Souza Alzirinha
Published: August 2017

RESUMO: Historicamente, a teologia passa por diversas formas e sofre influência direta da época em que é construída, em períodos marcados ora pela aproximação, ora pelo distanciamento da realidade. Notadamente para o período conciliar (pré e pós-Concílio), constata-se um descompasso entre o pensamento e a realidade. Afirma-se que o Concílio foi pensado para o passado, logrando como consequência o não-acompanhamento de um futuro em ebulição no final dos anos 1960 e 1970. A partir de uma perspectiva histórico-prática, este artigo se propõe a refletir so­bre as alterações hermenêuticas desde o início do séc. XX, passando pelo período conciliar, até o atual papado, tendo obrigatoriamente como chave de concretização e manutenção das mudanças propostas por Francisco a consideração da com­preensão do dado da experiência humana, cristã e não cristã no desenvolvimento epistemológico da teologia.ABSTRACT: Historically, theology goes through various forms and it is directly influenced by the period in which it is built, in periods marked by the nearness, or by the distance related to reality. Notably, for the Conciliar period (pre- and post-Council periods) there is a mismatch between thought and reality. It is said that the Council was thought for the past that it resulted in the non-accompaniment of a future in ebullition in the late 60’s and 70’s. This article proposes to reflect from a practical historical perspective, the hermeneutic changes from the beginning of the 20th century to the papacy of Francis, as a compulsory the concretization and maintenance of the changes proposed by Francis, considering the understanding of human experience data, Christian and non-Christian experience, in the epistemo­logical development of the theology.

One-dimensional grating is one of the most important standards that are used to calibrate magnification of critical-dimension scanning electron microscopes (CD-SEMs) in the semiconductor industry. Long-term stability of pitch calibration systems is required for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories determined in ISO/IEC 17025:2005. In this study, calibration and measurement capabilities of two types of pitch calibration systems owned by a calibration laboratory are re-evaluated through comparison to a reference value and its expanded uncertainty given by a metrological atomic force microscope (metrological AFM) at National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ), AIST. The calibration laboratory’s pitch calibration systems are designed by using the diffraction method (optical and X-ray).

X-ray computed tomography systems (X-ray CT) designed for metrological use are frequently used in the manufacturing industry. This is because X-ray CT is able to measure not only outer geometry but also inner geometry nondestructively and relatively quickly. However, X-ray CT in the state of the art is not always able to demonstrate its measurement performance and traceability to SI. One of problems is that it is hard to evaluate error sources unique to X-ray CT, such as scattering and beam hardening, called as “material influence.” The hypothesis to the mechanism of Bi-directional length measurement error from the material influence is proposed. The hypothesis is that Bi-directional length measurement error is mainly caused by the form measurement error of a small feature on the gauge. The form measurement error of a small feature on the gauge is dominantly influenced by beam hardening. The hypothesis is validated through actual experiments and simulations. The results of the experiments and corresponding simulations lead us to the conclusion that the magnitude of the form measurement error of a small feature on a rotational asymmetric gauge is clearly correlated with a location of the small feature on the gauge.
A Novel Particle Sizing Method for Nano Abrasives in CMP Slurry by Using Fluorescent Nano Probe

Published: August 2017

In this study, a novel particle sizing method is proposed based on Brownian diffusion analysis for abrasive particles using fluorescent probing. A fluorescent probe is used to measure the average dynamic viscosity of the nanoparticle dispersion in a solvent. By measuring both the average dynamic viscosity and the size of the nanoscale abrasive particles simultaneously, the uncertainty of the particle sizing is considered to be improved based on the viscosity compensation for the Brownian diffusion of nanoparticles. In this research, the authors investigate the difference between the nanoviscosity and the shear viscosity of the solvent to verify the efficacy in using viscosity compensation for nanoparticle sizing.

We proposed to utilize terahertz (THz) waves for the measurement of moisture content of pulp injection molding (PIM) pellets. We developed an automatic and non-destructive THz measurement system with a 0.1 THz source, pyroelectric detector, load cell, and step motor stage. As a first step, the correlation between THz transmittance and moisture content of the PIM product was studied. The results strongly suggest that the proposed method should be applicable to moisture content analysis of PIM products with better than 1% resolution and accuracy, which is much better than the previous studies with more expensive THz sources. Since the contents of pellets and products are the same, it is possible to estimate the moisture content in the pellets by designing similar apparatus. It should be noted that this method is applicable not only to PIM but also has many other applications.
Three-Dimensional Reconstruction by Time-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Microscope with Improved Measurement Range

Published: August 2017

The objective of this research was to develop a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction system based on a time-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) microscope. One of the critical drawbacks of OCT microscopes is that their axial measurement ranges are typically limited by their depths of field (DOFs), which are determined by the numerical apertures of their objective lenses and the central wavelengths of their light sources. If a low-coherence interference fringe is far outside the DOF, the measurement accuracy inevitably decreases, regardless of how well-adjusted the reference mirror is. To address this issue and improve the axial measurement range of the OCT microscope in this study, an object-scanning measurement scheme involving a Linnik interferometer was developed. To calibrate the system in the proposed technique, image post-processing is performed for a well-conditioned state to ensure that a low-coherence interference fringe is generated within the DOF, enabling 3D objects with high-aspect-ratio structures to be scanned along the axial direction. During object-scanning, this state is always monitored and is corrected by adjusting the reference mirror. By using this method, the axial measurement range can be improved up to the working distance (WD) of the objective lens without compromising the measurement accuracy. The WD is typically longer than 10 mm, while the DOF of the microscope is around 0.01 mm in general, although it varies depending on the imaging system. In this report, the experimental setup of a 3D reconstruction system is presented, a series of experimental verifications is described, and the results are discussed. The axial measurement range was improved to at least 35 times that of a typical OCT microscope with identical imaging optics.
Dual-Wavelength Digital Holography Based on Phase-Division Multiplexing Using Four Wavelength-Multiplexed Phase-Shifted Holograms and Zeroth-Order Diffraction-Image Suppression

Published: August 2017

We propose a dual-wavelength phase-shifting digital holography technique with four wavelength-multiplexed holograms based on phase-division multiplexing utilizing the 2π ambiguity and zeroth-order diffraction-image suppression. Zeroth-order wave suppression is implemented by introducing the averaging method. Its effectiveness is experimentally shown and numerically and quantitatively investigated. The numerical investigation demonstrates the tolerance of the proposed technique against incoherent light noise and changes in the reference wave intensity. The image quality in the proposed technique depends on the intensity ratio between the object and reference waves but does not degrade with constant changes in intensity. In contrast, a previously reported four-step dual-wavelength phase-shifting technique was affected by the factors described above.

September in Brazil! It is spring there and the days are just perfect, warm but not too hot. Spring is a time of new beginnings. It's a perfect lime to visit Rio de Janeiro, especially in 2002.

As delegates start arriving in Rio to take part in the World Petroleum Congress 2002 (WPC), the one thing that is likely not to go unnoticed - aside from the signature landmarks of the Sugar Loaf, Christ the Redeemer, and the beautiful beaches - is the overwhelming abundance of electoral posters and electoral propaganda of all kinds, including people in the streets dressed with shirts coloured to identify their candidates blowing horns and handing out material.

Brazil's Economy and Energy Industry

by Abbas Naini

The Federated Republic of Brazil with 8.511,965 km2 is the largest country in South America and the world's fifth largest, after Russia, Canada, China, and the USA. Brazil borders every country in South America except Chile and Ecuador.

In the 1980s (after 20 years of military rule) the country slowly returned to democracy and in 1988 enacted a new constitution, which allows the president who is also commander-in-chief of the armed forces to choose ministers of State, initiate legislation, and maintain foreign relations. Brazil is administratively divided into 26 states and one Federal District.

The presidential powers are balanced by a bicameral legislature, which consists of a 72-seat senate and a 487-seat chamber of deputies. Presidential, state, and congressional elections are held every four years.

Authors: Diniz Fernanda Rodrigues , Frony-Macedo Ana Lúcia , Piacenti-Silva Marina
Published: August 2017

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, which in some cases may be characterized by recurrent relapses of inflammation that cause mild to severe neurological disability. Some studies around the world have associated the increase of systemic inflammatory responses and neuro-inflammation of patients with exposure to high levels of particulate matter (PM10) and certain conditions of temperature and humidity. Materials and methods: The objective of this study was to verify the influence of the concentration of PM10 and meteorological variables (air temperature and relative humidity) on the number of hospitalizations forMS in the city of São Paulo. Data from 2008 to 2016, which passed through descriptive statistics and inferences, were used as multiple linear regression models. Results: The models obtained indicated a positive relation (p < 0.01) in the number of hospitalizations with the increase of PM10and relative humidity, showing that 31.23% of hospital admissions can be explained by these variables. Conclusion: These results are important, since there are no other studies from Brazil that correlate meteorological and air quality variables with MS.Descriptors: Air Pollution; Multiple Sclerosis; Linear Models.

Published: August 2017

Elementos dentários anteriores estão mais suscetíveis a traumatismos, alterando a estética do indivíduo, pois podem levar à necrose pulpar, com consequente alteração da coloração do dente, estando indicado o tratamento endodôntico e procedimentos para a recuperação da estética. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo relatar um caso clínico de reabilitação estética de um elemento escurecido por trauma dental. Paciente A.C.O.M., 24 anos, compareceu à clínica de Odontologia da Universidade Nilton Lins, Manaus-AM, queixando-se da aparência do dente anterior que escureceu após trauma ocorrido há 01 ano. O plano de tratamento para o caso foi a reabilitação estética do elemento 21 com a associação de clareamento interno mediato e externo imediato após tratamento endodôntico. Pode-se concluir que a associação do clareamento interno mediato com o externo imediato foi uma opção de tratamento adequada, pois o elemento 21 passou da cor C4 para B1 da escala Vita, proporcionando uma excelente estética, harmonização do sorriso e devolução da autoestima do paciente.Descritores: Estética Dentária; Traumatismos Dentários; Clareamento Dental.
Using Flipped Classroom and Virtual Field Trips to Engage Students
Authors: Kobayashi Kent D.
Published: August 2017

Student engagement in the classroom is critical for effective learning. To enhance student engagement, several teaching approaches can be used, including a flipped classroom approach and virtual field trips. The flipped classroom approach was used in an undergraduate tropical production systems course in which students viewed lecture materials outside of class, brought their smart devices to class to review materials, searched for new information on the Internet, and participated in small group discussions. In the virtual field trip assignment, each student visited a commercial farm or nursery, interviewed the owner or manager, and gave a presentation to the class about the operation of the enterprise and its sustainable practices.
Family firms, risk-taking and financial distress
Authors: Gottardo Pietro , Maria Moisello Anna
Published: August 2017

The authors investigate the question of whet her qualitative characteristics are likely to explain the survival of family firms in case of financial distress and whether these variables improve the explanatory power of quantitative variables in clarifying the different probability of distress between family and non-family firms. They focus their attention on the impact of the controlling owner and, using the Socioemotional Wealth theory (SEW), study the role of the family involvement in mitigating or accentuating the likelihood of distress. Using a dataset of 1,137 Italian family and non-family firms during 2004–2013, the authors found that family firms are significantly less likely to incur distress than non-family firms. The board dimension and the number of family members on board affect the probability of distress even controlling for some firm risk characteristics such as beta and ROA volatility, and there is also evidence of a gender mitigating effect in case of a female CEO.
The Effect of Gel-Electrolyte on Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) Prototype based on Nanosized-TiO2 Using Mangosteen Pericarp as Absorber
Authors: Kumila Biaunik Niski , Prajitno Gontjang
Published: August 2017

Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) with Fluorine deped Tin Oxide (FTO) substrat and nanosize-TiO2 layer sensitized by “dye” ,mangosteen pericarp extract, was succesfully fabricated. Gel-Electrolyte as electron regenerator was synthesized by adding Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) 1000 to electrolyte solution while nanosize-TiO2 was synthesized by co-precipitation method from TiCl3 solution. The crystal size of TiO2 characterized by X-Ray Diffraction is 10.5 nm in size. The solar absorbance of “dye” mangosteen pericarp was measured using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer and it showed that the dye can absorb photon at Near Ultraviolet (NUV) to yellow visible light. Nanosize-TiO2 based DSSC with gel-electrolyte successfully reached short circuit current up to 30.9 μA, open circuit voltage 398.3 mV and performed the long term stability. ©2017 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Published: August 2017

The present study concerns with the fl outing maxim occurredin EFL classroom interaction. It was aimed at investigating howthe conversational implicatures especially fl outing maxim are be-ing formed in teacher and students dialog during EFL teaching andlearning process. The present study used qualitative approach. Thedata taken from teacher and students interaction in EFL classroomare being transcribed and analyzed by categorizing utterances basedon the fl outing of maxim theory proposed by H.P. Grice. Based onthe data analysis, it has been discovered that during the conversa-tion, all speakers happen to be successful in observing maxims. Theproportion of non-observance maxim is only 2%. Sorts of maximthat is fl outed by speaker are maxim of quantity, quality and man-ner. The fl out of maxim is done by students because of their lackof linguistic and actional competence.
COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES IN THE CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN INDONESIAN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS AND A NATIVE SPEAKER
Authors: Romadlon Farid Noor
Published: August 2017

Practicing conversations or dialogues in various context or situation is as the essential aspect for students because it smoothen their skill in communication and their English mastery. Whenever people use language to interact, one of the things people are do- ing with it is establishing a relationship between them; between the speaker speaking now and the person who will probably speak next. It means, strategies in communicating put an important role to reach the goal of the interaction or the communication.This study is to identify the communication strategies of In- donesian university students, especially students of the English De- partment Education Faculty of Muria Kudus University and native speaker used in communication in natural conversation and to find out the possible factors cause the choice of  the strategies in the conversation. The method applied in this study is descriptive qualitative. The subjects of this study are fourth semester students of English De- partment of Muria Kudus University and one native speaker. The data were obtained by inviting and asking the students and the na- tive speaker to have a conversation for around one hour. Then, the conversation was recorded by using camera. The recorded data were transferred into the printed one as a script. The data analysis was conducted in several ways, among other transcribing the recorded data, identifying each utterance and displaying the result in the table, classifying the utterances based on the type of strategies, and inter- preting the communication or the conversation.The results showed that there were 306 turns in the conver- sation between the students and the native speaker. The types of strategies used in the conversations were Circumlocution (C) for 38.98 % (23), followed by Language Switch (LS) for 15.3 % (9) and Topic Avoidance (TA) for 14.6 % (8), Literal Translation (LT) for 6.8 % (4), Mime (M) for 8.5 % (5), Word Coinage (WC) and Mes- sage Abandonment (MA) for 6.8 % (4), Appeal for Assistance (AA) for 5.6 % (3), and Approximation (A) for 3.39 % (2). The last find- ing showed that there were two main factors that cause the choice of the strategies in the conversations. They were proficiency of the speaker and features of the communicative situation. In the use of communication strategies, both students of Eng- lish Department Muria Kudus University and the native speaker try to have a relative balance of power relation without the domination of one person to others. Some factors which cause the use of the strategies are lack of meaning, social use aspect, speech, voice, and fluency. To improve students’ strategies in communication, they should practice their English more, so their speaking and their strategies will be improved. Besides, lecturers also should apply the contextual teaching in which the environment and culture are inserted into the topic.
