Edição anotada e estudo das narrativas históricas de Alexandre Herculano situadas entre 1367 a 1433.
No full textThis thesis proposes a annotated edition and a study of the historical narratives of
Alexandre Herculano located between 1367-1433, Arras forum for Spain, The vault,
and Castle of Faria in this period include the reign of Ferdinand and D . John I. Such
narratives were published at the beginning of the Portuguese Romanticism initially in
journals of Portuguese journals then were gathered in volumes with other historical
narratives of the author, and published under the title Legends and Lore. This research
was developed from concern over the lack of this material in our academic context, it is
noteworthy that other works of Herculaneum are much more affordable and therefore
more known and studied, for example, the novels The Fool ( 1843), Eurico the priest
(1844), and the Monk Cistercian (1848). This annotated edition proposal, we intend
school player, college player, even the lay reader in general. Therefore, we intend to put
the scope of this public an issue with notes to assist them while reading these stories, to
have an enriched text with relevant information to clarify and enable a better
understanding of it.
Keywords: Historical Narratives; Annotated Edition; Alexandre Herculano.Esta dissertação apresenta uma proposta de edição anotada e um estudo das narrativas
históricas de Alexandre Herculano situadas entre 1367 a 1433, Arras por Foro de
Espanha, A Abóbada, e O Castelo de Faria. A este período compreendem o reinado de
D. Fernando e D. João I. Tais narrativas foram publicadas no início do Romantismo
português, inicialmente, em periódicos de revistas portuguesas, em seguida, foram
reunidas em volumes com outras narrativas históricas deste autor, e publicadas sob o
título de Lendas e Narrativas. Esta pesquisa desenvolveu-se a partir da inquietação
suscitada pela carência deste material em nosso contexto acadêmico. Vale ressaltar, que
outras obras de Herculano são bem mais acessíveis, e por consequência mais conhecidas
e estudadas, como, por exemplo, os romances O Bobo (1843), Eurico o Presbítero
(1844), e O Monge de Cister (1848). Nesta proposta de edição anotada, temos em vista
o leitor escolar, o leitor universitário, até mesmo, o leitor leigo em geral. Por isso,
pretendemos colocar ao alcance deste público uma edição com anotações que os
auxiliem durante a leitura destas narrativas, ao terem um texto enriquecido com
informações pertinentes que esclareçam e possibilitem sua compreensão.

Tunable Energy-Transfer Process in Heterometallic MOF Materials Based on 2,6-Naphthalenedicarboxylate: Solid-State Lighting and Near-Infrared Luminescence Thermometry
No full textTrivalent lanthanide ions (Ln3+) are used to prepare a plethora of coordination compounds, with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) being among the most sought-after in recent years. The porosity of Ln-MOFs is often complemented by the luminescence imparted by the metal centers, making them attractive multifunctional materials. Here, we report a class of three-dimensional (3D) MOFs obtained from a solvothermal reaction between 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (H2NDC) and lanthanide chlorides, yielding three types of compounds depending on the chosen lanthanide: [LnCl(NDC)(DMF)] for Ln3+ = La3+, Ce3+, Pr3+, Nd3+, Sm3+ (type 1), [Eu(NDC)1.5(DMF)]·0.5DMF (type 2), and [Ln2(NDC)3(DMF)2] for Ln3+ = Tb3+, Dy3+, Y3+, Er3+, Yb3+ (type 3). Photoluminescent properties of selected phases were explored at room temperature. The luminescence thermometry capability of Yb3+-doped Nd-MOF was fully investigated in the 15-300 K temperature range under 365 and 808 nm excitation. To describe the optical behavior of the isolated MOFs, we introduce the total energy-transfer balance model. Therein, the sum of energy-transfer rates is considered along with its dependence on the temperature - the sign, magnitude, and variation of this parameter - permitting to afford a thorough interpretation of the observed behavior of the luminescent species of all materials presented here. The combination of novel theoretical and experimental studies presented herein to describe energy-transfer processes in luminescent materials can pave the way toward the design of MOF-based chemical and physical sensors working in an optical range of interest for biomedical applications.Fil: Gomez, Germán Ernesto.

Damping optimization using transfer function criteria
No full textThesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2013.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 84-85).Seismic performance has become a key point in the design of every type of structures. Even the simplest buildings need protection in areas of high seismic activity.However,there is no method defined!by codes or general knowledge to help engineers make choices about the design of seismic protection devices. Even!though several theories to optimize the use of devices have been developed, there is little practical application in!structural engineering. The purpose of this paper is first to settle on the elements that can be used to protect structures. By looking at their effects on structures, it was found that dampers are the easiest to use in an optimization process. After describing the need of progress in the field of earthquake protections, this paper focuses on the impact of additional damping in a 2-D frame. Finally, the method developed by Izuru Takewaki was studied and implemented. By looking at the limitation of the interstory drift, the algorithm produced the optimal distribution of the damping. In order to estimate the performance of! the method, the results were compared to empirical damping distributions. A complete program was developed in order to apply the optimization method to a wide range of custom 2-D frames.by Thibault Alexandre Dody.M.Eng
