A favela, historicamente, foi relegada a lugar de marginalidade, insalubridade, lócus de doenças e de outras mazelas sociais. Vista como negação da cidade, é hoje reconhecida como parte da paisagem urbana. Mesmo não apresentando uma arquitetura padrão, desenha no espaço citadino um traço singular, vibrante, marca da reprodução cotidiana da vida. Dentro do contexto de Fortaleza/CE, o bairro Sapiranga/Coité apresenta altos índices de favelização nos mapeamentos da cidade, embora se localize numa área de expansão do mercado imobiliário, setor sudeste da cidade. Apreender a paisagem das favelas da Sapiranga/Coité é compreender o espaço para além da sua manifestação formal, é dar vida a espaços que despertam nossos sentidos (olfato, audição, visão) e que tradicionalmente resistem às investidas da especulação imobiliária. Reconstruindo, assim, uma paisagem ditada pelas necessidades.Palavras-chave: Paisagem. Favela.

The significance of consolidating Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques in clinical informatics research has been progressively perceived over the previous years, and has prompted transformative advances. Ordinarily, clinical NLP frameworks are created and assessed on word, sentence, or record level explanations that model explicit traits and highlights, for example, archive content (e.g., persistent status, or report type), record segment types (e.g., current meds, past restorative history, or release synopsis), named substances and ideas (e.g., analyses, side effects, or medicines) or semantic qualities (e.g., nullification, seriousness, or fleetingness). While some NLP undertakings consider expectations at the individual or gathering client level, these assignments still establish a minority. Here we give an expansive synopsis and layout of the difficult issues engaged with characterizing suitable natural and outward assessment strategies for NLP look into that will be utilized for clinical results research, and the other way around. A specific spotlight is set on psychological wellness investigate, a zone still generally understudied by the clinical NLP look into network, however where NLP techniques are of prominent importance. Ongoing advances in clinical NLP strategy improvement have been huge, yet we propose more accentuation should be put on thorough assessment for the field to progress further. To empower this, we give noteworthy recommendations, including an insignificant convention that could be utilized when announcing clinical NLP strategy improvement and its assessment.

In biomedical engineering, fiber-reinforced polymers play an important role in creating physical biological models of patients, which helps surgeons explain anatomical details to patients and perform trial operations. Replicating the precise three-dimensional (3D) structure of the human mandible is now a priority for rebuilding these bones for complete functional and aesthetic healing. Additional production methods and reverse engineering are required to achieve the design of a personalized device with precise shape and size. The main purpose of this research work is to develop a specially developed human mandibular biological model using the additive manufacturing method, FDM (Fused Deposition Melting). FDM is performed by loading a CAD model into a 3D Printer. We present this method using the FDM (Fused Deposition Melting) method to generate a human mandible biological model. Data obtained from computed tomography (CT) with a resolution of 1 mm was converted to a 3D model by computer aided design (CAD) using CT digital imaging and medical communication (DICOM) data. After the CAD model is built, it is converted to a stereolithography (*.STL) format and then processed by rapid prototyping techniques to create a physical anatomical model using 3D printing. Converting two-dimensional data (2D) from computed tomography data to a 3D model is an accurate guide to shaping bone grafts. The current approach can translate treatment plans directly into the surgical field. It is an important teaching tool for forming and fixing implants, helping to counsel patients.

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a group of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically creates a network without the support of central management. The mobile hosts of MANET network are not restricted to move freely in any direction and thus linking with any other mobile host can be easily done. Without giving any notification to other hosts in the network, they can be switched on or off. Each mobile host must forward traffic, unrelated to its own use and therefore acts as a router. Because of the mobility of wireless nodes, each node must have the capability of managing an autonomous system, or a routing function without requiring any centralized administration. This mobility and autonomy of the wireless nodes along with the transient nature of the end hosts and intermediate host in a communication path creates a dynamic topology of the network. These mobile hosts are connected in an arbitrary manner and as they are highly mobile, the topology changes take place frequently. The rate of change is based on the velocity of the nodes and the challenge is these devices are small and the available transmission power is limited. In this Trust Based Secured Routing Protocol for MANET (TSRPM), certain changes have been made in the design of secure ad hoc routing protocols. First, a modified Diffie Hellman algorithm is implemented; secondly a trust based model has been developed.

Homogeneous alkali catalyst produces soap as a by-product and generates a large amount of wastewater. This study investigates the potential of three types of biomass namely oil palm frond, coconut shell and groundnut shell to be developed as a solid acid catalyst for transesterification of waste cooking oil into biodiesel. The synthesis of solid acid catalyst is conducted by incomplete carbonization of biomass followed by sulfonation using concentrated sulfuric acid to incorporate the sulfonic group in the carbon body. The porosity of prepared catalyst was characterized by adsorption/desorption technique and surface acidity was evaluated by means of back titration method. Coconut shell showed the highest acid density of 0.51 mmol/g followed by groundnut shell and oil palm frond with 0.16 mmol/g and 0.12 mmol/g respectively. The biodiesel production was carried out at reaction conditions of methanol-to-oil ratio 20:1, reaction temperature 60 ºC, reaction time 6 h and catalyst loading 6 wt%. The highest biodiesel conversion was achieved using a coconut shell as a catalyst with 86.5%, followed by groundnut shell and oil palm frond. The use of solid acid catalyst derived from biomass could explores new market value for waste material while minimizing the solid waste production and further reduces cost and energy consumption in biodiesel production.

The article is aimed at analyzing the legal means of protecting the interests of air transportation service recipients. The main emphasis will be placed on the analysis of the Warsaw Convention and the Montreal Convention provisions reflecting the freedom-of-contract doctrine since the air travel compensation procedure is not regulated by the national Russian legislation. As a result of the analysis, the conclusion was made that individuals, for example, in the case of harm causation, have the right to choose according to the law of which country the compensation should be paid to them. Separately, it was established that the various degrees of liability of air carriers, prescribed in the rules of airlines, not only failed to contribute to fair compensation for harm to the life and health of a passenger but, on the contrary, made for unjust enrichment on both sides. In this regard, the authors came to the conclusion that it is necessary to bring the procedure of compensation for harm caused during air transportation to uniform standards of the transportation rules for all international airlines. In this regard, the authors substantiate the need to introduce the elements of self-regulation of transportation activities and mandatory insurance of carrier liabilities. Besides, proposals were made to fill the gaps in the current air transport legislation, for example, regarding the regulation of a long-term agreement on the organization of systematic air transportation, aircraft charter contracts, and contracts for the performance of aviation work which is important for the country's economy.

Modern education is intensively developing, manifesting new approaches to learning, and progressive concepts in the system of knowledge acquisition. In recent years, global changes have undergone in the Russian education system from pre-school education through higher education. First of all, they affected the higher education system. On the one hand, there was a significant reform of external features: the merger of several universities into one, and the adjustment of the names of universities and institutions. On the other hand, the changes affected the structure of higher education, the levels of education were defined from bachelor’s to master’s course. Competence and practice-oriented approaches began to occupy a dominant position in the learning process, as well as independent work of students was given special attention. On the basis of the Federal State Standards of Higher Education adopted in 2016 in the Law Enforcement major and Jurisprudence training area, for high-quality and effective implementation of their professional activities, graduates of the universities and colleges sponsored by agencies of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service must acquire a set of cultural, general vocational and specific professional competencies. To achieve the necessary competence (educational) level in the course of learning, the cadets are faced with the task of solving ideological, political, moral, and cognitive problems. Cognitive activity is key and conscious in the learning process, because it permeates the entire educational path of a person, starting with the initial cognitive efforts and ending with the satisfaction of the cognitive needs of trainees. Effective cognitive activity is impossible without positive motivation, sustainable cognitive interest, self-development and self-determination of the individual.

During the last decade, the growth of big data is immeasurable in information technology. Big data has the potential to take all the decisions necessary for a company or business. But it has many challenges as well. As its size and volume are immeasurably ample it is a very challenging task to store, process and mines it. At the same time as a boon to it cloud computing has a large capacity to store this big data and provides tremendous processing power. It is a challenging task to process large amount of data frequently in the big-data cloud center through the thousands of interconnected servers. Due to the day by day growth of the big-data, big-data cloud center is forced to improve its Quality of Service (QoS) metrics like throughput, latency and response time. Hence, to develop an optimal data processing optimization method is a current research problem that has to be solved. The major intention of this paper is to develop an application that provides maximum throughput, minimum latency and reduce the response time. Toward this, we have developed an optimization technique using nature-inspired firefly optimization algorithm and k-means clustering (FA-KMeans). The developed optimization method has been evaluated with state of art algorithms. Its experimental result elucidates that our proposed method provides good throughput, reduces latency and response time.

The agrophotovoltaics innovative technology (APV) is a staged culture that combines photovoltaic power generation and agricultural production on the same land. The coexistence of solar panels and crops implies a sharing system of sunshine between these two types of production. It opens new horizons by making drylands cultivable while producing clean energy for local populations. APV lies at the heart of a global energy transformation, increasing world energy demand, negative global warming effects, and global water scarcity, and offers a promising investment to farmers and new opportunities for ecologically sustainable livelihoods. As a renewable energy investment, it meets the sustainability demand by reducing climate concerns but it also opens the door to significant socioeconomic benefits. However, the final outcome of the investment depends on government policies, environmental conditions, technical progress and what materials are used in solar power systems. This paper answers three questions: Why is the agrophotovoltaics an important technology today? What are the advantages and disadvantages of agrophotovoltaics use? And what are the economic risks related to this kind of investments? By analyzing Penthéréaz solar panels power generation example in Switzerland, the research illustrates the success factors to the investment and inherently provides recommendations regarding future investments.

Customers should aware about the building management system (BMS) and their requirements based on the location of the apartment, type of the apartment and number of floors in the apartment. It is observed from various literature reviews that the customer requirements vary depending on the geographic physiological environment they are present in. Various techniques were followed and the project went up to 16 weeks. Observation of the customer requirements in BMS have been made and key areas to be focused based on location such as 1.Rural residents preferred having fire and alarm system and energy savings 2.Urban residents focused on Monetary, energy and security systems has been identified. Observation was also made based on the apartment type and customer requirements varied if the apartment is an individual standalone apartment or a multiple cluster of apartment. The other factor based on which the customers preference varied is the number of floors in the apartment, where as the floors increases the focus was on security systems, else the focus was on monetary savings. I also provide suggestions like elements to focus on rural apartment, urban apartment and standalone apartment.

In the present time several techniques have been developed in managing and storing thermal energy. Use of Thermal energy storage systems (TES) are one of the solutions for this issue. Hence in the present work, phase change materials (PCM) are used for storing thermal energy. D-mannitol and Hydroquinone are the two PCM materials used in double pipe heat exchanger and simulations are carried out analytically on ANSYS. Study of temperature variation is done with respect to time and values are calculated for time, t = 200, 500, 2200 and 4200 seconds. The results also include contour plots and numerical values for mass fraction for each of the case. The result shows, that with increase in the time step, the temperature gradually increases for both the cases of PCM materials.

Brain tumor, due to uncontrolled development of abnormal cells, is one of the hazardous illnesses that happen in the brain. A fully automatic brain tissue segmentation using improved k means segmentation is discussed in this paper. Generally the brain tumor tissue can appear at any location at different size and shapes. Manual brain tumor detection is not only time-consuming, it is also linked to human errors and depends on the expertise and experience of a medical pathologist. Automatic detection is required in a computer-aided detection system (CAD) for medical images such as MRI. This automatic detection includes pre-processing, segmentation and medical image classification. The preprocessing techniques eliminate noise. Separate the region of interest from the background picture using the segmentation methods. Finally, the classification is conducted to identify brain tumor automatically. The outcomes are also compared between the suggested method and the current methods.

This study aimed to determine the anthropometrics of athletes representing Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) during the Malaysian Inter-varsity Sports (MASUM) tournament, 2018. In this study, 50 athletes consisted of 15 hockey players, 12 netball players, 13 volleyball players and 10 volleyball players were recruited as participants. Percentage of body fat was measured using formula by Jackson, Pollock and Ward (1980) while somatotype were determine using the scale by Heath and Carter. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation. The results of the anthropometric profile indicate that almost all teams have an endo-meso (more muscular) body, but the results of the relationship showed that significant relationship between the anthropometric profile and the performance were only found in the bowling team, r = 0.13, p = 0.14, p < 0.05. For hockey, netball, and volleyball teams did not show significant relationship (r = 0.15, p = 0.74, p> 0.05), (r = 0.12, r = 0.64, p> 0.05), (r = 10, p = 0.71, p> 0.05) respectively. In conclusion, the overall anthropometric profile cannot be indicated as determinant of a team's performance at the MASUM 2018 tournament.

Forecasting paddy production is considered as a difficult problem in the real world due to in deterministic behavior of the nature. Specifically, rice production is forecasted for a leading year for overall planning of the crop, utilization of the agricultural resources and the rice production management. Likewise, the key challenge of the forecasting rice production is to create a realistic model that can able to handle the critical time series data and forecast with minor error. Prognostication of the Future data is highly correlated with the time series data set. If the accuracy of your prediction is more appropriate, then the value of the forecast will improve as well. This paper represents a new technique depends on Higher Order Fuzzy Logical Relationship. Here, Mean Square Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) are used to estimate the errors of predicted data. historical data relating to the rice production of 1981 to 2003 is used as secondary data and the error of the predicted data is further reduced using different soft computing technique.

This paper presents a study of shear behaviour of reinforced concrete beams. The major parameters used were type of shear reinforcement, namely stirrups alone, wire mesh alone and combination of both wire mesh and stirrups as shear reinforcement. The replacement of wire mesh was done on the basis of weight with stirrups. The experimental program includes four beams. All the beams were tested using two point loading system. It is evident from the result that the use of wire mesh enhanced improved shear performance and bearing capacity in the examined beams. Beams with wire mesh as shear reinforcement and combination of both wire mesh and stirrups exhibited some amount of increase in shear capacity with respect to the beams with stirrups alone as shear reinforcement. Furthermore beams with wire mesh and combination of wire mesh and stirrups as reinforcement exhibited less number of crack patterns compared beams with stirrups.
