L'Union européenne est présente, sous des formes diverses, dans la région Pacifique. Au-delÃ du cadre de sa politique commerciale extérieure, elle a des accords d'association avec un certain nombre de territoires insulaires. Ainsi, parmi les 20 pays et territoires d'outre-mer (PTOM) énumérés dans l'annexe I de la décision 91/482/CEE du Conseil du 25 juillet 1991, relative Ã l'association des pays et territoires d'outre-mer Ã la Communauté économique européenne , cinq sont situés dans la zone Pacifique : quatre territoires français, Polynésie française, Nouvelle Calédonie et ses dépendances, Ã®les Wallis et Futuna, terres australes et antarctiques françaises et une colonie britannique, Pitcairn. Huit pays ACP ("Afrique, CaraÃ¯bes, Pacifique") appartiennent Ã la mÃªme zone géographique: Fidji, Kiribati, Papouasie Nouvelle Guinée, Ã®les Salomon, Samoa occidentales, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu. Ces pays ont donc noué des relations d'association avec l'Union européenne dans le cadre des conventions de Lomé.

Authors: Santos Marcio Ramatiz Lima , Souza Patrick Bruno de 
Published: April 2020

A banana verde apresenta muitos atributos nutricionais e tecnológicos e o Brasil é um importante produtor e exportador. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo desenvolver uma banana verde com e sem casca frita em três diferentes óleos. A banana verde é rica em minerais, apresenta baixos níveis de açúcares e altos níveis de amido resistente, que atuam como fibras no intestino, melhorando a digestão e contribuindo para o desenvolvimento da microbiota. Foram preparados seis tratamentos com chips de banana verde, sendo dois tratamentos com casca e descascados fritos em três óleos diferentes (óleo de soja, óleo hidrogenado e óleo de girassol). As amostras foram analisadas para determinar a composição físico-química (pH, acidez titulável, umidade e cinzas), a contaminação microbiológica por coliformes totais e coliformes termotolerantes e análises sensoriais para verificar a aceitação (textura, aroma, cor, sabor e aspecto global). Os resultados foram submetidos à ANOVA e Teste de Tukey para verificar a interação entre as médias de 5% de significância no software Assistat©. Os resultados da análise microbiológica foram negativos para todos os tratamentos, mostrando que as boas práticas de fabricação foram bem realizadas. Nas análises físico-químicas, observou-se um aumento do nível de umidade para os tratamentos com casca em comparação com as amostras sem casca. Os valores de pH apresentaram-se maiores nas amostras com casca e consequentemente menor acidez. Efeito semelhante foi observado na acidez titulável, onde os tratamentos sem casca apresentaram menores valores de acidez total. Para os teores de cinzas, observou-se que os tratamentos com casca apresentaram níveis superiores aos descascados. Os tratamentos com todos os chips de banana verde apresentaram boa aceitação, variando entre 62,22 e 81,33%. Observou-se maior aceitação pelos tratamentos com óleo hidrogenado, principalmente devido às características de crocância e menor aceitação pelos tratamentos com óleo de girassol. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que os tratamentos de chips de banana verde têm potencial tecnológico, apresentam boa aceitação e estão de acordo com a legislação brasileira.

Published: April 2020

Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar a contribuição dos professores e de uma escola pública da rede estadual de ensino na formação social e cidadã dos alunos do Ensino Fundamental, na cidade de Ituiutaba - MG. Para efetivação deste e em conformidade com os objetivos propostos, optou-se pelos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos de uma pesquisa qualitativa, sustentada nos estudos de Bodgan e Biklen (1991) Minayo (2010) e Chizzotti (2008; 2011). Como estratégia de coleta de dados, utilizou-se a análise documental, por meio do Projeto Político-Pedagógico e o Regimento da escola, um questionário composto por dez questões abertas aplicado para vinte professoras que quiseram participar da pesquisa, e à equipe gestora. Foi realizada também uma roda de conversa com os alunos do 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental. Pretendeu-se neste estudo, promover uma compreensão sobre como a escola pode contribuir para a formação da cidadania dos alunos em múltiplas dimensões. Muitos impasses são notados em relação ao compromisso da escola e dos professores com a formação social ou as práticas cidadãs contextualizadas no interior do cotidiano escolar. Podemos considerar que a escola sozinha não está preparada para formar alunos atuantes e críticos em uma sociedade injusta e desigual, este é um trabalho coletivo, que deve ser desenvolvido também pela família, pela sociedade, pelas políticas públicas e pelos governantes, num compromisso pelo bem comum. Só assim seremos capazes de formar cidadãos críticos, conscientes, pensantes, capazes de mudar os rumos da sociedade e conduzir os caminhos da humanidade.

Authors: Alkaissi Zainab Ahmed , Adnan Hassan 
Published: April 2020

The estimation of elastic modulus for road bases is the primary objective of this research which is implemented a significant role in transmitting the vertical loading to the pavement foundation layers. In this study, the effect of weathering conditions on the stiffness of base course is investigated and implied the durability test by subjecting the prepared samples to a different numbers of wet-dry cycles (0,2, 4, 6, 8 and 10). A conventional base materials of local natural gravel aggregate and treated base materials with recycled concrete aggregate RCA at different percentages (0%, 25%, 50% 75% and 100%) is adopted in this research.
The elastic characteristics are estimated in terms of elastic modulus. Elastic modulus are estimated by passing the ultrasonic pulse velocity through the untreated and treated base materials laboratory specimens. This test can be used to study the elastic modulus properties of base materials. A multiple linear regression analysis is used for prediction the elastic modulus using the SPSS (software ver.21). Elastic Modulus (kPa) is the dependent variable whereas the independent variable are; No. of wet- dry cycle and Percent (%) of RCA stabilizer. The obtained results for elastic modulus (Es) of granular base material layer showed increasing in elastic modulus with percentage of RCA%., results revealed that the (Es) values reached a maximum value of (6927kPa) for 100%.
For the OMC’s values increases due to the percentage increment of RCA in granular base material mixture, this increment in water contents is refer to high absorption capacity of the paste clinging to the RCA. On other side the dry density decrease gradually with adding percentage of (RCA) in granular base material mixture.

Published: April 2020

This work analyzes bacterial communities present in evaporation ponds of solar salterns of Gran Canaria and reveals specific organisms through molecular techniques. Solar salterns are protected areas in Canary Islands where salt is produced from sea water by solar and wind powered evaporation. Salt was an important product for ancient islanders who used it for a broad field of purposes, but also has a great importance in recent time for its implications in the island economy.Based on amplifications with specific primers for 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA) and subsequent nested-PCR approaches, different amplicons were obtained, and analyzed in silico. A taxonomic classification was carried out through phylogenetic trees.Results revealed different bacteria according to the evaporation grade of crystallizer ponds in saline works. It is worthstanding the presence of the genus Halobacterium in all crystallizer ponds. This opens an interesting framework for further studies and continuative molecular characterization approaches of bacterial communities in solar salterns of Gran Canaria.

The experiment is based on sod-podzolic light loamy drained soil with closed drainage. Potatoes were grown in 3 variants: without fertilizers, average norms and high norms. Weather conditions during the years of research (according to G.T. Selyaninov) are divided into groups: excessively humid, moist and arid. The moisture content of the arable layer of the soil under planting of potatoes, according to the gradations of these years, the average vegetation period was 73, 60, 39% of the lowest moisture capacity. A more favorable state of the water-air regime of the soil during the cultivation of potatoes according to the ridge technology during the growing season was formed in excessively wet years, in the wet years the plants experienced a lack of moisture in certain phases, especially during the period from tuberization to ripening. In dry years, plants experienced a large lack of moisture throughout the growing season. On average, according to the experimental variants, a higher potato crop was formed in excessively wet years compared to wet years by 21%, and with dry ones by 68%. The use of fertilizers had a positive effect on the formation of potato crops and depended on weather conditions. A greater effect from the use of fertilizers was noted in excessively wet years, with average rates the yield increased by 32.2 t / ha, at high - by 41.5, in wet - by 10.3 and 14.9, respectively, in dry - by 11.0 and 16.8. The share of weather conditions in crop variability was 23%, fertilizers - 61%.

Published: April 2020

Strengthening of the existing structures is an important task that civil engineers continuously face. Compression members, especially columns, being the most important members of any structure, are the most important members to strengthen if the need ever arise. The method of strengthening compression members by direct wrapping by Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) was adopted in this research. Since the concrete material is a heterogeneous and complex in behavior, thus, the behavior of the confined compression members subjected to uniaxial stress is investigated by finite element (FE) models created using Abaqus CAE 2017 software.
The aim of this research is to study experimentally and numerically, the behavior of square plain (without steel reinforcement) concrete compression members, that has concrete strength of = 24.41 MPa, confined with one layer of CFRP wraps under uniaxial compressive loading. Finally, the outcomes are compared with the finite element models using Abaqus software.
Laboratory experimental results showed that confining compression members with CFRP wraps is an efficient strengthening method. In terms of load carrying capacity, an enhancement was measured for about 56.1% of the reference non-confined members. This enhancement was also reached using Abaqus software.
