    This board-book version of LM turns out to be quite creative. Ratoncete comes from school every afternoon and goes through the forest looking for adventures. He apparently blasts a horn into the ear of the sleeping lion. Don Leon wants to spank him as a result, but Ratoncete offers an apology, not an offer of help. Later, he happens upon the lion in his trap of ropes. 8 pages, counting both covers. 6½" x 9".Language note: SpanishNo Autho

    No full text
    A comunidade fitoplanctônica pode funcionar como sensor das variações do ambiente aquático respondendo rapidamente as essas alterações. Em sistemas aquáticos continentais é comum a coexistência de espécies que possuem as mesmas necessidades ecológicas e apresentam as mesmas tolerâncias ambientais, tais grupos de espécies fitoplanctônicas são denominados grupos funcionais. O uso de grupos funcionais fitoplanctônicos para avaliar tais alterações tem se mostrado muito útil e eficaz. Assim, o objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a ocorrência de grupos funcionais fitoplanctônicos em dois reservatórios (Billings e Guarapiranga) que suprem de água milhões de pessoas na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, Sudeste do Brasil. As amostras foram coletadas mensalmente na superfície da coluna d'água e foram analisadas as variáveis físicas, químicas e biológicas (análises qualitativa e quantitativa do fitoplâncton). Os maiores valores de biovolume (mm3.L-1) das espécies descritoras e grupos funcionais foram representados por Anabaena circinalis (H1), Microcystis aeruginosa (LM/M) e Mougeotia sp. (T) no Reservatório Guarapiranga e por Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii (SN), Microcystis aeruginosa e M. panniformis (LM/M), Planktothrix agardhii e P. cf. clathrata (S1) no Reservatório Billings. Os principais fatores ambientais que interferiram na dinâmica do fitoplâncton foram: temperatura da água, zona eufótica, turbidez, condutividade, pH, oxigênio dissolvido, nitrato e fósforo totalPhytoplankton may function as a "sensor" of changes in aquatic environment and responds rapidly to such changes. In freshwaters, coexistence of species that have similar ecological requirements and show the same environmental requirements frequently occurs; such species groups are named functional groups. The use of phytoplankton functional groups to evaluate these changes has proven to be very useful and effective. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of functional groups of phytoplankton in two reservoirs (Billings and Guarapiranga) that supply water to millions of people in São Paulo city Metropolitan Area, southeastern Brazil. Surface water samples were collected monthly and physical, chemical and biological (quantitative and qualitative analyses of the phytoplankton) were performed. The highest biovolume (mm3.L-1) of the descriptor species and functional groups were represented respectively by Anabaena circinalis Rabenh. (H1), Microcystis aeruginosa (Kützing) Kützing (LM/M) and Mougeotia sp. (T) in the Guarapiranga reservoir and Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii (Wolosz.) Seen. and Subba Raju (SN), Microcystis aeruginosa and M. panniformis Komárek et al. (LM/M), Planktothrix agardhii (Gom.) Anagn. and Komárek and P. cf. clathrata (Skuja) Anagn. and Komárek (S1) in the Billings reservoir. The environmental factors that most influenced the phytoplankton dynamics were water temperature, euphotic zone, turbidity, conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen, nitrate and total phosphorou

    . The purpose of this study is to analyze how the concept of markets equilibrium: the IS-LM Model. This research uses library research method by using reference sources from books and journals according to the theme. The author uses a qualitative method which is explained graphically, namely the market balance of the IS-LM model where the focus is on money and goods markets associated with macroeconomics where researchers take the side of investors. The results of this study are that the balance in the economy is the point where the IS and LM curves intersect. This point provides an interest rate (r) and income level (Y) that satisfies the equilibrium conditions that occur in the goods market and money market. In other words, planned spending equals actual spending, and the demand for real money balances equals the supply. So that the IS-LM balance, it is stated that IS=LM

    Reservatórios apresentam gradientes horizontal e vertical de fatores abióticos que controlam a dinâmica fitoplanctônica, resultando em uma marcada heterogeneidade espacial na produtividade fitoplanctônica. Portanto, o fitoplâncton é um importante objeto de estudo em reservatórios. Tradicionalmente, os estudos ecológicos com fitoplâncton partiam da análise da comunidade a partir de espécies ou grandes divisões taxonômicas, como classes. Com o avanço do conhecimento, surgiram novas abordagens para o estudo desta comunidade, como os grupos funcionais. Diversos autores propuseram metodologias de classificação de grupos funcionais, baseados em diferentes critérios, como fisiologia, ecologia e/ou morfologia. O objetivo geral do presente estudo foi investigar a estrutura da comunidade fitoplanctônica em relação às características ambientais em duas represas de abastecimento de água da Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, as represas Billings e Guarapiranga. Para atender aos objetivos específicos, diversos aspectos foram abordados, como os possíveis impactos da transposição de águas da represa Billings para a Guarapiranga, a utilização de grupos funcionais na detecção de padrões ambientais, a comparação de diferentes metodologias de agrupamentos funcionais do fitoplâncton, a ocorrência do dinoflagelado invasor Ceratium furcoides em reservatórios brasileiros e a heterogeneidade ambiental da represa Guarapiranga com base na qualidade da água e nas comunidades planctônicas. As represas Billings e Guarapiranga discriminaram-se quanto às variáveis físicas, químicas e biológicas, sendo classificadas como meso/eutróficas. A comunidade fitoplanctônica da represa Billings foi dominada pelo dinoflagelado invasor Ceratium furcoides (Lo), que provavelmente está sendo transferido para a represa Guarapiranga através do sistema de transposição. A baixa qualidade da água do ribeirão Parelheiros influenciou fortemente a qualidade da água da represa Guarapiranga, principalmente na região de entrada deste tributário, com domínio do grupo funcional LM. As regiões mais distantes da região de influência do ribeirão Parelheiros na represa Guarapiranga apresentaram condições distintas, devido à influência de tributários com melhor qualidade de água. Observou-se abundância de distintos grupos funcionais, como WS, H1 e A, evidenciando uma heterogeneidade da qualidade da água no eixo longitudinal da represa Guarapiranga. Três compartimentos principais foram identificados: 1) região do Embu-Guaçu, parte alta da represa, mais protegida e menos eutrófica dominada por fitoplâncton R-estrategista e rotíferos; 2) região do Parelheiros, um braço eutrófico da represa com domínio de fitoplâncton C-estrategista e elevada densidade de copépodes ciclopóidas e 3) parte baixa do reservatório, com características eutróficas e lacustrinas, co-dominância de fitoplâncton C e S-estrategistas e maior contribuição de copépodes à densidade total do zooplâncton. A adição do algicida sulfato de cobre na água da represa Guarapiranga influenciou a formação de compartimentos com base nas comunidades fitoplanctônica e zooplanctônica. Ao fim deste trabalho, evidenciou-se a importância 1) da preservação do ribeirão Parelheiros e do monitoramento da transferência de espécies fitoplanctônicas da represa Billings para a Guarapiranga visando a preservação da qualidade da água represa Guarapiranga, 2) da necessidade do monitoramento da ocorrência e dispersão de C. furcoides no Brasil, 3) da implementação de programas de manejo na represa Guarapiranga que levem em consideração a presença de heterogeneidade ambiental neste reservatório e 4) da utilização dos grupos funcionais fitoplanctônicos como ferramenta na identificação de padrões ambientaisReservoirs exhibit horizontal and vertical gradients of abiotic factors that control phytoplankton dynamics, resulting in a marked spatial heterogeneity in phytoplankton productivity. Therefore, phytoplankton is an important object of study in reservoirs. Traditionally, ecological studies on phytoplankton community were based on species or taxonomic major divisions, such as classes. As science advanced, new approaches appeared, such as functional groups. Several authors have proposed methods of functional groups\' classification based on different criteria, such as physiology, ecology and/or morphology. The general objective of this study was to investigate the structure of the phytoplankton community in relation to environmental characteristics in two water supply reservoirs in São Paulo Metropolitan Area, Billings and Guarapiranga reservoirs. To reach some specific aims, several aspects were investigated: the possible impacts of the water transfer from Billings to Guarapiranga reservoir, the use of functional groups in the detection of environmental patterns, comparison of different methodologies of phytoplankton functional groups\' classification, the occurrence the invasive dinoflagellate Ceratium furcoides in Brazilian reservoirs and the environmental heterogeneity of Guarapiranga reservoir based on water quality and planktonic communities. Billings and Guarapiranga reservoirs exhibited distinct physical, chemical and biological characteristics, being both classified as meso/eutrophic. The phytoplankton community of Billings reservoir was dominated by C. furcoides (Lo), which is probably being transferred to Guarapiranga through the water transfer system. The poor water quality of the Parelheiros stream strongly influenced the water quality of Guarapiranga reservoir, mainly at the entrance of this tributary, with dominance of functional group LM. Regions further away from Parelheiros stream in Guarapiranga reservoir exhibited different conditions, due to the influence of tributaries with better water quality. It was observed abundance of different functional groups, such as WS, H1 and A, demonstrating the presence of water quality heterogeneity in the longitudinal axis of Guarapiranga reservoir. Three main compartments were identified: 1) Embu Guaçu region, upstream, more protected and less eutrophic, dominated by phytoplankton R-strategists and rotifers; 2) Parelheiros region, a eutrophic branch of the reservoir, dominated by phytoplankton C- strategists and high density of copepods cyclopoids and 3) the lower part of the reservoir, with eutrophic and lacustrine features, co-dominance of phytoplankton C and S-strategists and higher contribution of copepods to the total density of zooplankton. The addition of the algaecide copper sulfate in the reservoir\'s water influenced the formation of compartments based on phytoplankton and zooplankton communities. Some final remarks were highlighted at the end of this study: 1) the importance of the preservation of Parelheiros stream\'s water quality in order to maintain Guarapiranga reservoir water quality, 2) the transfer of phytoplankton species from Billings to Guarapiranga reservoir must be closely monitored, 3) the occurrence and dispersion of C. furcoides in Brazililian waters must be closely monitored, 4) management programs in Guarapiranga reservoir must take into account the presence of water quality heterogeneity and 5) phytoplankton functional groups as a tool for identifying environmental patterns should be applie

    This paper presents an investigation into Automated Fibre Placement process parameters for a novel carbon-fibre-reinforced thermoplastic material based on a low-melt polyaryl ether ketone polymer matrix (CF/LM-PAEK). The primary focus of this investigation is in-situ consolidation, with parameter sets for sample manufacturing selected based on a Design of Experiment method and analysed by means of mechanical and thermal testing. For in-situ consolidation, a maximum shear strength of 33.6 MPa and a crystallinity of 27.3% is achieved. Subsequent tempering increases shear strength up to 46.5 MPa and crystallinity up to 32%. The material was found to be insensitive to layup speed within the tested parameter range (1–15 m/min), achieving similar results for high layup speeds

    ABSTRAK Fahrul Kurniawan, Perancangan Adaptor Dengan Output 5V DC Menggunakan IC LM 7805, Komprehensif, Jakarta, Pendidikan Teknik Elektronika, Fakultas Teknik, Universitas Negeri Jakarta Tenaga listrik merupakan tenaga yang dimanfaatkan manusia dalam kehidupannya sehari-hari. Tenaga listrik dimanfaatkan untuk menghidupkan atau menjalankan alat-alat elektronika yang mempermudah aktivitas manusia. Agar dapat menggunakan tenaga listrik pada alat-alat elektronik diperlukan pengubah daya dari arus listrik arus kuat ke arus listrik arus lemah. Konsep pengubahan arus kuat menjadi arus lemah diterapkan dalam bentuk adaptor. Dalam pembelajarannya adaptor memanfaatkan konsep dioda sebagai penyearah arus listrik. Pada program studi Pendidikan Teknik Elektronika, khususnya di Universitas Negeri Jakarta, penerapan konsep dioda sebagai penyearah dituangkan dalam pembuatan adaptor DC oleh mahasiswa. Menggunakan IC LM 7805, penulis membuat adaptor DC dengan keluaran 5V sebagai penerapan konsep dioda sebagai penyarah. Hasil dari perancangan adaptor menunjukkan hasil pengukuran output adaptor bernilai 5V. Hal ini berbanding lurus dengan sifat IC LM 7805 yang meregulasi tegangan output yang masuk ke IC menjadi 5V. Kata Kunci: Adaptor, Dioda, Penyearah, IC LM 7805 ***** ABSTRACT Fahrul Kurniawan, Adapter Design with 5V DC Output Using IC LM 7805, Comprehensive, Jakarta, Electrical Engineering Technical Education, Technic Faculty, University State of Jakarta Electrical power is energy that humans use in their daily lives. Electrical power is used to turn on or run electronic devices that make human activities easier. In order to use electrical power in electronic devices, it is necessary to convert the power from strong current to weak current. The concept of converting strong current to weak current is implemented in the form of an adapter. In the lesson, the adapter utilizes the concept of a diode as an electric current rectifier. In the Electronics Engineering Education study program, especially at Jakarta State University, the application of the concept of diodes as rectifiers is outlined in the manufacture of DC adapters by students. Using IC LM 7805, the author made a DC adapter with 5V output as an application of the diode concept as a rectifier. The results of the adapter design show that the adapter output measurement results are 5V. This is directly proportional to the nature of the LM 7805 IC which regulates the output voltage entering the IC to 5V. Keywords: Adapter, Diode, Rectifier, IC LM 780
