Interações estabelecidas pelas Universidades Brasileiras Públicas e Privadas
Authors: Schmidt Matheus , Ruffoni Janaina
Published: January 2019

As universidades são reconhecidas como produtoras e difusoras de conhecimento cientifico e tecnológico,e podem influenciar na geração e difusão de inovações. Para a realidade brasileira, a literatura aponta um volume relativamente baixo de interações entre universidades e organizações, considerando a imaturidade do Sistema Nacional de Inovação (SNI) do país. Além disso, entende-se que as universidades públicas, em comparação com as privadas, são instituições com maior presença no cenário de interações, pela trajetória histórica de constituição e desenvolvimento de mais longo prazo no sistema educacional e de ciência e tecnologia brasileiro, bem como pelo fato de usufruírem de mais recursos, tanto humanos quanto financeiros para a geração e transmissão de conhecimentos. Neste contexto, entende-se ser relevante compreender as interações estabelecidas de acordo com a natureza jurídica das universidades. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo exploratório que utilizou dados secundários do censo do Diretório de Grupos de Pesquisa (DGP) do CNPq e do censo de educação superior do INEP para o ano de 2014. Os resultados indicaram que as universidades públicas possuem um número maior de registros de grupos de pesquisa, grupos de pesquisa interativos, doutores, mestres e outros recursos em relação às universidades privadas, sendo as principais áreas de conhecimento dos grupos interativos: ciência da saúde, ciências humanas e ciências exatas e da terra. Já os grupos interativos das universidades privadas são principalmente das áreas de ciências sociais aplicadas, engenharias e ciências biológicas. Outro resultado interessante, e surpreendente, foi o cálculo do grau de interação que apontou ter sido semelhante para os dois grupos de universidades analisados. Isso exige um olhar mais acurado e inclusivo do papel das universidades privadas no cenário da interação universidades-organizaçõesno Brasil.

The mesoporous silica particles were prepared by the sol?gel method in one-step synthesis, in acidic conditions, from tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES), varying the mole ratio of the silica precursors. Nitric acid was used as catalyst at room temperature and hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as structure directing agent. Optical properties, porosity and microstructure of the materials in function of the MTES/TEOS ratio were evaluated using infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption and small angle X-ray scattering. All materials showed the ordered pore structure and the high specific surfaces, making them suitable as the drug delivery systems. Drug loading and release tests using ketoprofen were performed to assess their performance for drug delivery applications. The amount of the methylated precursor used in the synthesis had little effect on the drug loading capacity, but had a strong influence on the initial rate of the drug release.
Working at a shelter for homeless people: Researching employees’ self-perception
Authors: Ljubicic Milana
Published: January 2019

In the paper will be presented the findings of research on how staff employed
at the shelter for homeless people perceive their professional position and
reputation. The starting assumption is that the shelter is a closed-type
institution, in which both residents and employees are exposed to the same
social negligence. Since practical solutions and strategies for combating
homelessness are absent at a wider, systemic level, residences are directed
exclusively to the help of employees in the shelter. However, as the staff is
not systematically supported, it is expected that it develops a sense of
professional and personal powerlessness, as well as selfstigmatisation. In
order to check the above thesis, we conducted a survey at the Belgrade
Shelter for Adults and Old People. The research had two goals. The first, a
descriptive one, was to investigate whether the work they do emotionally
exhausts employees, how they evaluate their work achievement and professional
reputation. The second goal was exploratory. Namely, it was necessary to
understand the findings noted, bearing in mind the working environment and
the level of social concern about the employees and their clients.

This article investigates the significance of the informed and disinterested potential adopters on the growth pattern of innovation. The suitability of the proposed methodology for real-life scenarios is validated by fitting the model to the actual sales and price data sets from the electronics and semiconductor industries. The present study also incorporates the influence of dynamic price on the decision of the adoption of new products. An optimization problem is also formulated as an optimal control problem with the objective of profit maximization to determine the optimal price of the new technology.
Domination-submissiveness as a communication pattern in adolescents’ dialogue: A qualitative study
Authors: Stepanovic-Ilic Ivana , Baucal Aleksandar
Published: January 2019

The paper explores asymmetrical peer interaction and focuses on adolescents
with higher competences, which is fairly rare in this field. Although
interested in language, the Vygotskians dominantly studied adult-child
interaction, while the Piagetian research, despite the orientation towards
peer interaction, has started to investigate their dialogue only recently.
In the current paper, we traced the domination submissiveness communication
pattern in 10 dyad conversations of primary school students (the 6th and 8th
grade), in which more competent students progressed or regressed most after
an interaction with a less competent peer. This pattern is usually related
to a lower achievement of less competent students who were found to be
submissive, while domination was a feature of their more competent peers.
The aim was to explore whether this pattern had variations and how it was
related to the achievement and behaviour of more competent students. The
results indicate that there are various forms of the investigated
communication pattern and that it is associated with the more competent
students? progression. The previous findings regarding the dominant
behaviour of more competent students have been confirmed. Qualitative
analysis enabled us to see the domination-submissiveness communication
pattern as a complex form of interaction which appears in various forms in
the dialogues of asymmetric dyads.

USING FOCUS GROUPS TO STUDY ALN FACULTY MOTIVATION
Authors: Hiltz Starr Roxanne , Shea Peter , Kim Eunhee
Published: January 2019

What are the most significant factors that motivate and inhibit faculty with regard to teaching in online environments? And what are the specific kinds of experiences that underlie and explain the importance of these factors? One goal of this study was to add to the understanding of these issues, but the primary purpose of this study is determining how well these questions can be answered using the method of structured focus groups. This paper describes the methods and results of a pilot study conducted using four focus group interviews of faculty experienced in teaching using “Asynchronous Learning Networks” (ALN) at one university, and a single focus group at a second university in order to explore generalizability. For the university at which four group interviews were conducted, the rank orders of leading motivators and demotivators were quite consistent. Leading motivators include the flexibility allowed by being able to teach “anytime/anywhere;” better/more personal interaction and community building supported by the medium; the technical and creativity challenges offered by this mode of teaching; being able to reach more (and more diverse) students; and better course management. Major sources of dissatisfaction are more work, medium limitations, lack of adequate support and policies for teaching online, and the fact that the medium is not a good fit for some students. Very similar results were found through the replication focus group conducted at a different institution.
AN EXPLORATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDICATORS OF THE COMMUNITY OF INQUIRY FRAMEWORK AND RETENTION IN ONLINE PROGRAMS
Authors: Boston Wally , Díaz Sebastián R. , Gibson Angela M. , Ice Phil , Richardson Jennifer , Swan Karen
Published: January 2019

As the growth of online programs continues to rapidly accelerate, concern over retention is increasing. Models for understanding student persistence in the face-to-face environment are well established, however, the many of the variables in these constructs are not present in the online environment or they manifest in significantly different ways. With attrition rates significantly higher than in face-to-face programs, the development of models to explain online retention is considered imperative. This study moves in that direction by exploring the relationship between indicators of the Community of Inquiry Framework and student persistence. Analysis of over 28,000 student records and survey data demonstrates a significant amount of variance in re-enrollment can be accounted for by indicators of Social Presence.
AN ADMINISTRATOR’S GUIDE TO THE WHYS AND HOWS OF BLENDED LEARNING
Authors: Niemiec Mary , Otte George
Published: January 2019

Given the importance of administrative attention to blended learning, this article adumbrates the institutional benefits but also the institutional challenges of this integration of online and on-campus instruction. The reasons for engaging in blended learning determine how it will play out, so the why is given precedence over the how. But there is an attempt to elaborate the methods even more extensively than the reasons, to drill down into the considerations that must be taken into account in any successful implementation. Just how the details will sort out will necessarily vary from one institution to the next, but there are certain considerations that seem genuinely indispensable, the keys to success or failure, sustainability or aborted effort.

Background to the transformation from a male victim into a criminal in victimology
Authors:   Kuban State University, Bederkhanova Vera Petrovna , Lyudmila Vyacheslavovna Lyudmila Vyacheslavovna ,   Kuban State University
Published: January 2019

In the Russian victimology literature, there has been little discussion about the transformation from a victim to a criminal. Based on up-to-date international studies, the authors analyze the background to such a transformation. The Russian victimology mainly focuses on women, children, and teenagers rather than male victims. This determines the necessity to study male victims from the perspective of the role of victimity in the criminal offense. The research looks at the modern international victimology theories such as childhood trauma accumulation, delayed affect phenomenon, strain theory, and the theory of hegemonic masculinity and aggression. Early international studies have demonstrated that male victims are characterized by the subnormal perception of their masculinity. At the same time, recent studies have shown that hypermasculinity plays a crucial role in the predisposition to criminal behavior. Therefore, the notions of hypermasculinity and victimity are of high interest to scientists in terms of analysis and further research.

Influência das ações atmosféricas na funcionalidade de estruturas geotécnicas
Authors: Cardoso Rafaela
Published: January 2019

A consideração das ações atmosféricas no dimensionamento de estruturas geotécnicas tais como taludes, aterros, barragens de aterro e fundações, justifica-se quando as deformações devidas a ciclos de molhagem e secagem (ciclos de sucção) ultrapassam valores que podem comprometer a funcionalidade destas estruturas. Para o cálculo das deformações devidas às ações atmosféricas é necessário, primeiro, quantificar essas ações no solo, tarefa onde se tem que considerar as ações atmosféricas e as características hidráulicas do solo para o seu grau de saturação e, segundo, recorrer a modelos constitutivos para solos parcialmente saturados pois a sucção tem que ser incluída como variável de estado. Como exemplo descrevem-se alguns casos estudados no IST, depois de se apresentar alguns casos que justificam a consideração das ações atmos féricas na sua análise.

Authors: Fernandes David , Viana da Fonseca António
Published: January 2019

O subsolo do Noroeste de Portugal, em particular o da cidade do Porto, é composto principal mente por solos residuais do granito, caracterizados pela sua forte heterogeneidade. Devido aos desenvolvi mentos dos métodos construtivos, a utilização de estacas tem sido cada vez mais frequente neste tipo de solos, pelo que se torna imperativo conhecer melhor o comportamento deste tipo de fundação, que ainda hoje não é consensual. Uma forma simplificada, mas ao mesmo tempo eficaz, de analisar a interação entre as estacas e maciço ao longo da face lateral e na ponta da estaca é através do conhecimento dos padrões de transferência de carga ao longo do fuste e da base, vulgarmente conhecidas como curvas ‘t-z’ e ‘q-z’, respetivamente. Tendo em conta a problemática das cargas residuais, é o objetivo deste trabalho apresentar metodologias fundamenta das para a definição das curvas que caracterizam o comportamento de três tipos de estacas que foram utilizados neste tipo de solo, também considerando o efeito das cargas residuais. Para simular essas curvas recorreu-se ao programa UniPile® da UniSoft, que é uma ferramenta especificamente desenvolvida para este fim Espera-se que este estudo forneça informação prática útil, permitindo o dimensionamento seguro mas eficaz das estacas construídas neste tipo de solo, tendo em conta os diversos fatores que influenciam o seu comportamento.

Authors: Moura Alfran , Cunha Renato , Almeida Maria
Published: January 2019

O artigo avalia metodologias de projeto de fundações superficiais de aerogeradores assentes em areia de duna, a partir do estudo de caso de um aerogerador localizado no litoral cearense. Para isso, os ventos locais são inicialmente caracterizados. Em seguida, realiza-se, em campo, um monitoramento estrutural e um modelo reduzido é ensaiado em túnel de vento. O solo de apoio das fundações é caracterizado em laboratório por ensaios básicos, oedométricos e de cisalhamento direto. Em campo, realizam-se sondagens à percussão, com medida de energia e torque e ensaios pressiométricos. Esforços nas fundações do aerogerador estudado, estimados de diferentes formas, são comparados. Metodologias utilizadas para estimar a vibração da fundação são avaliadas. A faixa de variação da frequência de vibração obtida foi ampla, no entanto, observou-se a ausência de ressonância. Foi observado que a redução da velocidade máxima de operação do aerogerador proporcionaria considerável redução de custos de sua fundação.
Cálculo de la estabilidad de un vertedero impermeabilizado con geosintéticos
Authors: Estaire José , Santayana Fernando , Olivenza Gracia
Published: January 2019

El diseño de un vertedero requiere la realización de análisis de estabilidad, para los cuales es necesario definir distintas situaciones de cálculo y sus correspondientes coeficientes de seguridad. En la construcción de vertederos normalmente se emplean geosintéticos para la impermeabilización, lo que da lugar a superficies de deslizamiento críticas que se desarrollan a lo largo de los contactos entre los distintos geosinté - ticos empleados. La determinación de la resistencia al corte de dichos contactos constituye un factor de gran importancia en los cálculos de estabilidad. En el presente artículo se analiza, por un lado, la conveniencia de usar en los cálculos la resistencia pico o residual de los contactos entre los distintos elementos que constituyen el paquete de impermeabilización y dicho análisis se relaciona con las hipótesis de cálculo y los coeficientes de seguridad mínimos a exigir, teniendo en cuenta lo establecido en la normativa española y en la bibliografía técnica. Como resultado del estudio, se presentan algunas tablas en las que se relacionan las distintas situacio nes de cálculo (normal, accidental y extraordinaria) con la resistencia al corte del sistema de impermeabilización (pico o residual) y se define el coeficiente de seguridad mínimo requerido. Además, se incluye un ejemplo práctico que utiliza el procedimiento propuesto realizando análisis de estabilidad por equilibrio límite y cuyos resultados se comparan con un análisis tenso-deformacional efectuado utilizando métodos numéricos.

A comparative assessment of the economic benefits from shale gas extraction in the Karoo, South Africa
Authors: Wait R , Rossouw R
Published: January 2019

It has been said that the development of a shale gas industry could be a â€˜game changerâ€™ for South Africa. Proponents of shale gas tend to emphasise the benefits, whilst opponents emphasise the environmental costs. This paper is an attempt to inform the policy debate by highlighting both the potential economic benefits and environmental costs. To date, the Econometrix report (published in 2012) provides the only estimate of the economic impacts that may emanate from developing the Karooâ€™s shale gas. The report uses a Keynesian multiplier model to estimate the impacts. The analysis performed in this paper estimates the economic impacts using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) modelling approach, and the results are compared to the findings of the Econometrix report. In doing so, this paper provides an expanded view of the potential economic impact. Accordingly, this paper provides a number of findings on the estimated economic impact of shale gas extraction â€“ based on the application of an economy-wide impact modelling methodology â€“ which should be of interest to both opponents and proponents of the shale gas industry. By including all possible results, such as a boost in public sector jobs and an analysis of the impact on consumer prices and jobs in other sectors, this paper expands the current understanding of the likely impact of shale gas extraction in the Karoo of South Africa.Â Â
The exploration of service quality and its measurement for private higher education institutions
Authors: Van Schalkwyk R Dirkse , Steenkamp R J
Published: January 2019

The strategic importance of service excellence for service industries places the focus on service quality leadership, service quality management systems, service quality dimensions and the measurement of service quality. Many businesses such as private higher education institutions (PHEIs) regard service quality excellence as the single most important and distinct competence for survival and sustainability. The paucity of literature on the topic does not reflect the substantial growth of PHEIs in South Africa, and this paper explores service quality in this context. This exploratory study focuses on service quality (general insights), the need for service quality management and measurement at PHEIs, and the practical value of the SERVQUAL methodologies. The research approach is exploratory in the sense that it involves a literature review and an empirical application of the SERVQUAL instrument at a PHEI. The results (with internal validity) indicate the following three factors: the increasing strategic importance of service quality at PHEIs; good service quality levels at the PHEI studied; and why and how SERVQUAL (and SERVPERF) can benefitt PHEIs.

Objetivo: Identificar o conhecimento e práticas em saúde bucal realizada por cuidadores familiares de idosos. Método: Estudo transversal com 44 cuidadores de idosos que se encontravam em um hospital universitário do Distrito Federal. A coleta de dados foi entrevista individual com os cuidadores para identificar perfil sociodemográfico, informações sobre conhecimento acerca da higiene bucal e da percepção da saúde bucal do idoso cuidado. Resultados: A maioria dos cuidadores eram filhas dos idosos, sem formação específica para o cuidado. Cerca de 88% dos idosos utilizavam prótese dentária e 15% necessitavam de auxílio integral para a higiene bucal. Em 52% dos casos, as próteses dentárias eram higienizadas uma vez ao dia. Conclusão: A maioria dos idosos apresentou necessidade de auxílio para a higiene bucal, porém nem todos os cuidadores familiares o ofertavam de forma adequada. Cuidadores informais prevaleceram sem preparo ou orientação qualificada para prestar cuidados básicos de higiene bucal ao idoso.

Published: January 2019

Objetivo: Identificar as principais causas de óbitos em pacientes oncológicos, conhecer os tumores mais incidentes, a influência das metástases no perfil e ainda a média de tempo de diagnóstico da doença até o óbito. Métodos: Foram analisados os prontuários de todos os pacientes oncológicos que foram a óbito no ano de 2014 em Hospital do Norte do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Resultados: A amostra foi composta de 244 pacientes, com predominância no sexo masculino (n=133; 54,5%) e maioria dos óbitos com idade entre 70 – 79 anos (n=84; 34,4%) sem doença metastática, já na presença de metástase essa idade cai entre 50 – 59 anos com sobrevida de menos de 6 meses de vida. As neoplasias mais frequentes foram de pulmão, mama e estômago. A causa morte mais prevalente foi evolução da neoplasia (n=70; 30,3%). Mais da metade dos pacientes estudados apresentavam alguma comorbidade associada, sendo que 32,4% (n=79) detinham mais de duas comorbidades, dentre as mais encontradas cita-se a hipertensão arterial (n=93), a diabete tipo 2 (n=41) e cardiopatias (n=17). Conclusão: Cada vez mais percebe-se a necessidade de prevenir o câncer e quando isso não for possível, que seja diagnosticado precocemente, evitando assim doenças mais avançadas e metastáticas, dando ao paciente sobrevida e qualidade de vida.
