The main objective of this thesis was to model inflatable beams made frorn orthotropic woven fabric composites. The static aspects were investigated in this report. Before planning to develop these models, it was necessary to know all the parameters which have a direct effect on the effective mechanical properties these composites. Thus, a micro mechanical model was performed for predicting the effective mechanical properties. The proposed model was based on the analysis of the representative volume element (RVE). The model took into account not only the mechanical properties and volume fraction of each components in the RVE but also their geometry and architecture. Each yarn in the RVE was modelled as a transversely isotropic material (containing fibres and resin) using the concentric cylinders model (CCIVI). A second volumetric averaging which took into account the volume fraction of each constituent (warp yarn, weft yarn and resin), was performed. The model was validated favorably against experimental available data. A parametric study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of various geometrical and mechanical parameters on the elastic properties of these composites. ln the structural analysis, a 3D Timoshenko airbeam with a homogeneous orthotropic woven fabric (OWF) was addressed. The model took into account the geometrical nonlinearities and the inflation pressure follower force effect. The analytical equilibrium equations were performed using the total Lagrangian form of the virtual work principle. As these equations were nonlinear, in a first approach, a linearization was performed at the prestressed reference configuration to obtain the equations devoted to linearized problems. As example, the bending problem was investigated. Four cases of boundary conditions were treated and the deflections and rotations results improved the existing models in the case of isotropic fabric. The wrinkling load in every case was also proposed. In a second approach, the nonlinear equilibrium equations of the 3DTimoshenko airbeam were discretized by the finite element method. Two finite element solutions were then investigated : finite element solutions for linearized problems which were obtained by the means of the linearization around the prestressed reference configuration of the nonlinear equations and nonlinear finite element solutions which were performed by the use of an optimization algorithm based on the Qua.si-Newton method. As an example, the bending problem of a cantilever inflated beam under concentrated load was considered and the deflection results improve the theoretical models. As these beams are made from fabric, the beam models were validated through their comparison with a 3D thin-shell finite element model. The influence of the material effective properties and the inflation pressure on the beam response was also investigated through a parametric study. The finite element solutions for linearized problems were found to be close to the theoretical linearized results. On the other hand, the results for the nonlinear finite element model were shown to be close to the results for the linearized finite element model in the case of high mechanical properties and the non linear finite element model was used to improve the linearized model when the mechanical properties of the fabric are low

Skotte, Hans. „Tents in Concrete : What Internationally Funded Housing Does to Support Recovery in Areas Affected by War; The Case of Bosnia-Herzegovinia“. Doctoral thesis, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Urban Design and Planning, 2004. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:no:ntnu:diva-1986.
This work is about how international housing assistance to societies affected by war contributes toward long-term recovery. Or does not. Current wars are characterized by large, often identity specific population movements causing an extreme and urgent need for shelter. This research does not deal with (emergency) ‘shelter’, but with (permanent) ‘housing’, which has come to be one of the largest funding sectors of international aid to countries ravaged by war.
It is my contention that housing re/construction, because of its socio-material nature and high economic value may contribute towards long-term recovery. My research is therefore focusing on the relationship between the overall process of recovery and the way internationally funded housing projects are implemented. Recovery is conceptualized as a time limited, complex and reflexive activity, i.e. guided by past experience, both of pre-war conditions, and of the war itself. This makes recovery an endogenously driven process. In examining the implementation of foreign funded housing programs I submit, aided by prevailing theory, three chief attributes of housing: 1) that of physical object with its technical determinants and functional responsiveness, 2) that of object of meaning, i.e. symbol, which allows for, or even determines human action, and 3) that of vehicle of development, both by its backward linkages. i.e. creating demand and employment, but also by forward linkages, i.e. what people with housing will be able to do. All these attributes refer back to “what houses can do”, not only to “what houses are”.
The New Wars create a new and extremely complex context for international housing interventions. Unlike the indiscriminate mass destruction of housing of former wars, today housing is destroyed as a function of the owners’ identity. The destruction of housing has become an integral part of ethnic cleansing. This fact has lead donors to concentrate on rebuilding the destroyed housing as a means of reintegrating the displaced, an idea that seems simplistic given the meaning of recovery, the nature of housing - and the grave political complexity of the new wars.
Ideology as well as practical considerations have made the international NGOs the major agents of international aid. Their new role comes from that fact that most of the NGOs now receive substantial parts of their income from governments – to carry out government sponsored projects. Housing is a favored sector of intervention in war affected areas. Yet very few NGOs have any experience with housing. They make up for it by hiring building professionals on short-term field contracts. What little there is of theoretical writing that on housing re/construction after current wars, indicate that the NGOs – guided by their donors – apply an emergency approach also to permanent housing. Housing is conceived as shelter, which makes it a logistical challenge to fulfill basic short-term needs. If such an approach is applied, will it still contribute towards societal recovery?
Within this frame I have examined three multi-phased housing projects in Bosnia-Herzegovina. I explore their performance and capacity to enhance long-term recovery. Acknowledging the endogenous, reflexive nature of recovery, I had to approach it qualitatively, yet be able to draw theoretical conclusions on a broader scale. I have investigated how the housing projects are performing as physical entities, as generators or inhibitors of social and socio-material interaction, and I have examined how the housing projects have impacted local markets, production and the buildings industry. I do this by applying a societal capital approach which holds (re)development a function of beneficial flows from four societal capitals, i.e. fixed, environmental, human and social capital. Recovery is supported when housing investments also replenish the other capitals modes so that the inhabitants may draw benefits from their enriched interaction.
My cases are 1) set at different times in the reconstruction process, 2) set at different places and 3) executed differently by different NGOs. They yielded different, yet consistent conclusions within the three aspects of housing: physical object, symbol and strategy:
• The long-term nature of housing construction is ignored in that technical solutions, workmanship – and not least – the choice of location reflect an emergency attitude where inappropriate solutions are accepted “because it is war”. There is a reluctance to plan beyond the immediate even for structures that can last generations.
• The symbolic power of housing is reconfirmed for those who are able to reestablish livelihood networks at their place of origin. Return does not make strategic sense, hence is not a “durable solution”, for those whose networks are irreparably destroyed. For those who can return, housing reconstruction becomes a symbolic act, both to reestablish ontological security, but also to demonstrate against former perpetrators. Housing reconstruction in itself is therefore not a vehicle towards reconciliation.
• Housing re/construction in times of war is a way of disseminating purchasing power through employment. There is no production, no social or financial institutions by which the building industry can develop. Internationally funded reconstruction therefore relies on large scale – and tax free - imports of buildings materials. However, my cases show that domestic demand more often than that of NGOs draws upon imports. Recovery momentum is lost in not supporting the (re)establishment of the local building materials industry.
• My cases confirm the recovery powers of local agency. When substantive decisions on reconstruction are transferred from the NGO to the local community as part of the material support to housing re/construction, the community is also entrusted with support from external agents, like their own diaspora. This combination replenishes all capital modes of the community. The validity of this observation is inversely confirmed by another case where the inhabitants were not at all entrusted with decision-making powers, i.e. their human and social capitals were depleted. This also becomes apparent in that fixed and environmental capitals are also eroded.
I have concluded by presenting implications for policy, practice and research.
Denne avhandlingen handler om internasjonal bistand til boligreisning i krigsherjede områder, og hvordan slik bistand kan bidra til langsiktig gjenreisning. Eller hvordan den ikke bidrar. Dagens kriger preges av store demografiske forkastninger, ofte knyttet til befolkninggruppers etniske tilknytning. Dette fører til enorme boligbehov. Foreliggende forskningsarbeid dreier seg ikke om nødboliger slik vi finner dem i flyktningeleire, men på permanent boligbygging/boligreising. Hjelp til bolig(gjen)reising er ett av de største internasjonale innsatsområdene i krigsherjede områder.
Mitt utgangspunkt er boligbygging og boliggjenreisning, i kraft av sin sosio-materielle natur og betydelige økonomiske verdi, er spesielt egnet som innsatsområde for langsiktig gjenreisning. Min forskning fokuserer derfor på forholdet mellom de overordnede gjenreisningsprosessene og måten internasjonalt finansierte boligbyggingsprosjekter blir gjennomført på. Gjenreisning blir konseptualisert som en tidsbegrenset, kompleks og refleksiv aktivitet. At den er refleksiv innebærer at den er formet av tidligere erfaringer, både av forhold før krigen brøt ut og av selve krigen. Dette gjør gjenreisning til en prosess som drives fram av 'egne erfaringer', til en "deltakende" prosess. Ved hjelp av ledende teori fokuserer jeg på tre hovedattributter ved boliger i studien av gjennomføringen av internasjonalt finansierte boligreisningsprosjekter: 1) at det er fysiske objekter med teknisk determinanter og egenskaper for funksjonell tilpasning; 2) at de er meningsobjekter, de er symboler som lager rom for, eller til og med er bestemmende for, menneskelig handling; og 3) at de er investeringsobjekter, eller verktøy for utvikling, både gjennom å skape etterspørsel og sysselsetting, men også gjennom hva mennesker med bolig vil kunne utføre. Alle disse attributtene er knyttet til ”hva boligen gjør”, ikke bare ”hva boligen er”.
De såkalte 'Nye Krigene' skaper nye og svært komplekse betingelse for internasjonal bistand til boliggjenreisning. Til forskjell fra tidligere krigers masseødeleggelser av boliger, ødelegges boliger i nåtidens kriger som en funksjon av eierens identitet. Ødeleggelsen av boliger har blitt en integrert del av etnisk rensning. Dette har ført at de internasjonale giverne har konsentrert seg om gjenoppbygging av ødelagte boliger som redskap for å gjenintegrere de fordrevne – og gjennom det skape fred. I lys av gjenreisningens forutsetning, boligen flerdimensjonale natur og den grunnleggende politiske kompleksiteten ved de nye krigene, kan dette virke dette rett så forenklet.
Både ideologi og praktiske hensyn har ført til at internasjonale ikke-statlige organisasjoner (NGOer) har blitt hovedaktører i internasjonal bistand. Deres nye rolle kommer av at de fleste NGOene får hovedparten av inntekten sin fra regjeringer – for å utføre regjeringsstøttede prosjekter. Til tross for at boligbygging er en foretrukket innsatssektorsektor i krigsherjede områder, er det svært få NGOer som har boligreisningsefaring. Dette kompenserer de ved å hyre inn profesjonelle byggfolk på kortidskontrakter. Det lille som finnes av teori om gjenreisning etter nye kriger, indikerer at NGOene – støttet av sine statlige finansieringskilder – anvender en nødhjelpstilnærming også hva angår permanent boligbygging. Bolig blir forstått som om ’husly’. Det retter innsatsen inn mot å umiddelbare behov. Men kan man bidra til langsiktig gjenreisning av krigsskadde samfunn ved å benytte innsatsmidler som varer i generasjoner til først og fremst å løse akutte, men midlertidige boligbehov? Det vil i hvert fall fordre planperspektiver som strekker seg ut over nødfasen.
Innenfor dette rammeverket har jeg undersøkt tre større boligprosjekter i Bosnia-Herzegovina. Jeg undersøker deres egenskaper og kapasitet til å kunne fremme langsiktig gjenreisning. Med utgangspunkt i at gjenreisning er refleksiv og styrt av lokale prosesser, har jeg måttet tilnærme meg feltet kvalitativt, men samtidig være i stand til å trekke teoretiske konklusjoner i større skala. Jeg har undersøkt hvordan boligreisningsprosjekter oppfyller krav som stilles til boliger som fysiske objekter, og hvordan de genererer eller hindrer sosial og sosio-materiell samhandling. I tillegg har jeg undersøkt hvordan boligreisningsprosjekter har påvirket lokal etterspørsel og tilbud, produksjon og den lokale byggeindustrien. Dette gjør jeg gjennom å benytte en kapitalforståelse av samfunnet som ser på utvikling og gjenreisning som en funksjon av positiv samhandling mellom fire samfunnsmessige kapitalformer, nemlig fysisk kapital, miljøkapital, menneskelig kapital og sosial kapital. Gjenreisning skjer når økonomiske investeringer i boligbygging (vekst i fysisk kapital) også fører til vekst i de andre kapitalformene, og der innbyggerne kan trekke fordeler av denne veksten.
Prosjektene jeg har studert er gjennomført til ulik tid i gjenoppbyggingsprosessen, på ulike sted, og gjennomført av ulike agenter, (NGOer). Studiet av prosjektene førte til forskjellige, men likevel konsistente konklusjoner angående de tre attributtene som boliger innehar: fysisk objekt, symbol og strategi:
• Boligens langsiktige egenskaper blir ignorert ved at tekniske løsninger, utførelse og, ikke minst, valg av lokalisering reflekterer en nødhjelpsholdning, der mindreverdige løsninger blir godtatt ”fordi det er krig”, ikke nødvendigvis fordi det ikke fins alternativer. Det er motstand mot å planlegge utover det umiddelbare.
• Boligens symbolske kraft blir bekreftet for de som klarer å gjenopprette sosiale og økonomiske nettverk på sine opprinnelsessteder. For de som opplever at nettverkene er ugjenkallelig ødelagt, blir det ’å flytte tilbake’ meningsløst og oppfattes ingenlunde som en ”varig løsning”. Selve boligreisning blir en symbolsk handling for de som kan reise tilbake, både ved at det gjenoppretter ontologisk trygghet, men også som demonstrasjon mot deres overgripere. Boliggjenreisning i seg selv er derfor intet egnet redskap for forsoning.
• Bolig(gjenopp)bygging i krigstid er en måte å formidle og fordele kjøpekraft på. I krigsherjede land der produksjonsmidlene er ødelagt, og der sosiale og økonomiske institusjoner har kollapset, fint det ingenting for byggebransjen å utvikle seg gjennom. Derfor må den internasjonalt finansierte gjenoppbyggingen i stor basere seg på (skattefri) import av byggevarer. Likevel viser de prosjektene jeg har studert at lokalt generert etterspørsel i enda større grad enn den som genereres gjennom NGOene, retter seg mot import. Gjenreisningskraften tappes i vesentlig grad av at ikke bistandsinnsatsen også rettes inn mot (gjen)opprettelse av lokal produksjon av byggematerialer.
• Prosjektene jeg har studert bekrefter gjenreisningskraften hos lokale aktører i lokale handlingsrom. Når vesentlige beslutninger som gjelder den materielle støtten til boliggjenreisningen blir overført fra NGOene til lokalsamfunnet, gir det lokalsamfunnet en legitimitet som utløser støtte også fra andre eksterne aktører, som deres egen diaspora. Dette forsterker alle kapitalformene i lokalsamfunnet. Der slik beslutningsoverføring ikke finner sted, hindres en gjenreisning av menneskelig og sosial kapital. Det fortærer i sin tur både fysiske kvaliteter ved boligen og miljøet.
Jeg har konkludert ved å presentere implikasjoner for planlegging, praksis og forskning.

This work analyses the Feast of Tents at the Lages diocese, wich is located in Santa Catarina. It is about an annual feast that started in 1997, from the end of the Bible Diocesan Year. From biblical inspiration, this feast provides for Ecclesial Communities of Base (CEBs), an ecclesiologic option at diocese and points to the ransom of praxes in care and solidarity of recreated relationships from overcoming of the social and ecclesial exclusions. The first chapter reports the process of ―"put up tents" in the history of this feast in the last 13 years and also describes its biblical origins, particularly in the Old Testament. The description of its rituals and most remarkable characteristics will be very laious so that we chase new meanings for this feast in the context how its celebrated by community. The second chapter treats about the chalange de ― "disarm relationships of exclusion" and inquires the presence of an exclusion logic in the Society and at Church. At the same time, it proposes the overcoming for this problem by praxes of care and comensalism. There two practices are been very present in all editions of the Feast of Tents and express themselves in many attitudes, such the division of food, gratuity, reception. The ecclesiologic option for the Ecclesial Communities of Base (CEBs) inspires itself in the theology of the Holiest Trinity and presents an option for the purpose of resolving the logic of exclusion, wich can be overcome through participation in all social levels. The third chapter proposes some pastoral actions that confirm a new way of being Churc that the CEBs shows and the Feast of Tents celebrates. In the opening for the sócio-political and economic reality, it is introduced the creation of a new social contract that consolidates a full citizenship and planetary, in the perspective of the construction of a Church and Society without exclusions, just, fraternal and supportive; signals of Gods Kingdom.

Esta dissertaÃÃo mostrarà aspectos relevantes sobre a real situaÃÃo na Ãrea das barracas da Praia do Futuro, especialmente no tocante aos aspectos referentes à funÃÃo socioambiental da propriedade urbana e da justiÃa ambiental. O trabalho ora exposto tambÃm pretende fazer uma exposiÃÃo dos motivos pelos quais os barraqueiros encontram-se irregulares perante à UniÃo, fato este que ensejou uma AÃÃo civil PÃblica em 2005, contando como autores o MinistÃrio PÃblico Federal, a UniÃo e, posteriormente, o prÃprio MunicÃpio de Fortaleza, visto que vÃrios deles encontram-se, muito possivelmente, em faixa de praia, sendo esta um bem de uso comum do povo, de propriedade da UniÃo e no qual à proibida edificaÃÃes. Os terrenos de marinha e a linha de preamar tambÃm sÃo objetos de discÃrdia, especialmente entre os membros do judiciÃrio, tendo como explicaÃÃo a prÃpria legislaÃÃo jà muito ultrapassada e antiga, fato este que prejudica medidas judiciais rÃpidas e consistentes. A funÃÃo socioambiental da propriedade urbana à um dos principais pontos de explanaÃÃo no decorrer desta dissertaÃÃo, pois a real proprietÃria do local onde estÃo Ãs barracas à da UniÃo e a maioria dos barraqueiros, sem autorizaÃÃo, construiu e ampliou seus negÃcios, impedindo o uso de todos da Ãrea da praia, alÃm de causar ainda mais danos ambientais para a regiÃo, o que fere nÃo somente o meio ambiente natural, como tambÃm a dignidade dos banhistas que nÃo possuem o capital suficiente para se utilizarem dos produtos fornecidos pelas barracas. Outro ponto de grande importÃncia à o da justiÃa ambiental, ou seja, os danos ambientais advindos dos resÃduos das barracas deveriam ser compartilhados por todos, especialmente o poluidor (princÃpio do poluidor-pagador), mas, infelizmente, nÃo existe a chamada equidade ambiental no local.
This dissertation will explain relevant aspects about the real situation of the tents in the area of Praia do Futuro, especially about the social and environment function of urban property and the environmental justice. The paper also exposed now intends to make a exposition of the reasons for which are irregular the ownerâs of the tents before the Union, a fact which led to a Public civil Action in 2005, as the authors tell the Federal Public Ministry, the Union and, later, the Municipality itself Fortaleza, since several of them are mostly possible in the strip of beach, which is an asset of common use of Federal property and buildings is prohibited. The tide lands and high tide line are also objects of contention, especially among members of the judiciary, with the explanation of the legislation itself already very outdated and old, a fact tent undermines legal action fast and consistent. The role of social and environmental urban property is one of the main points of explanation in the course of this work, because the real owner of the place where the tents are is from the Union and most of the ownerâs of the tents, without authorization, builded and expanded their businesses, preventing the use of all of the area beach, apart from causing further environmental damage to the region, which hurts not only the natural environment, but also the dignity of bathers who do not have enough capital to use the products provided by the tents. Another point of great importance is the environmental justice, or environmental damage arising out of the tents of waste should be shared by all, especially the polluter (the principle of polluter pays), but unfortunately, there is so-called equity in environment site.

Este trabalho tem por objetivo investigar as demandas de processamento relacionadas à resolução de provas de língua portuguesa do SAERJinho, focalizando-se, em particular, fatores de ordem linguístico-textual envolvidos na leitura de textos e enunciados das referidas provas. Na resenha da literatura são apresentadas vertentes teóricas sobre o processamento da leitura, seus aspectos cognitivos, metacognitivos assim como os conceitos de legibilidade e inteligibilidade. Dada a multiplicidade semiótica que caracteriza os textos das provas analisadas, são considerados os conceitos de multimodalidade e multiletramento. Apresenta-se, adicionalmente, literatura relativa a gêneros textuais, tendo em vista a identificação dos gêneros mais recorrentes nas provas examinadas. Uma breve caracterização dos tipos de questão de múltipla escolha usados em provas objetivas também é estabelecida, entendendo-se que aspectos metacognitivos associados à resolução desses tipos de questão podem afetar o desempenho dos alunos nas provas. A fim de compreender os critérios de elaboração das provas, foram considerados os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais para o Ensino Médio, que são a base referencial da Matriz de Referência utilizada na elaboração do SAERJinho. Antes das análises, o SAERJinho foi apresentado. No capítulo da metodologia, são apresentados o corpus da pesquisa, a ferramenta usada para verificar o grau de legibilidade dos textos (Coh-Metrix-Port) e o valor do índice Flesch associado a cada texto. Em seguida, procedeu-se à análise dos gêneros textuais, dos tipos de questão de múltipla escolha e também das habilidades e dos conteúdos específicos cobrados nas questões. Os resultados da pesquisa sinalizaram para a necessidade de se reavaliarem os critérios de elaboração das provas e apontaram ainda para a necessidade urgente de os alunos do Ensino Médio desenvolverem as habilidades necessárias para alcançarem proficiência em leitura (como por exemplo, inferir uma informação implícita em um texto, identificar o tema de um texto, identificar a finalidade de textos de diferentes gêneros) e, consequentemente, terem bom êxito nas avaliações.
This thesis is aimed at investigating the processing demands related to taking the SAERJinho s Portuguese Language Tests (the Education Evaluation System of the State of Rio de Janeiro), by focusing, in particular, on textual-linguistic factors involved in reading the statements of the mentioned tests. In the literature review, we present the theoretical framework for reading processing, its cognitive and metacognitive aspects, as well as the concepts of readability and intelligibility. Due to the semiotic multiplicity that characterizes the texts of the tests analyzed, the concepts of multi-modality and multi-literacy are considered. Additionally, we present the literature regarding text genres, focusing on the identification of the most recurrent genres in the tests examined. A brief characterization of the types of multiple choice questions used in objective tests is also established, bearing in mind that metacognitive aspects associated with the resolution of these types of question may affect students performance on the tests. In order to understand the criteria involved in test preparation, we consider the Brazilian National Curriculum Parameters for the Secondary Education, which are the reference basis of the Reference Matrix used in the preparation of the SAERJinho. Before showing the analyses, the SAERJinho is introduced. In the methodology chapter, the research corpus is shown, as well as the tool used to verify the readability level of the texts (Coh-Metrix-Port) and the Flesch reading score associated with each text. Then, we analyze the text genres, the types of multiple choice questions and also the skills and the specific topics covered in the questions. Research results show that it is necessary to re-evaluate the criteria involved in the elaboration of the tests and they also point out that high school students should urgently develop their reading proficiency (such as, for example, inferring implicit information in a text, identifying the text s topic and the purpose of texts of different genres) and, consequently, achieve good results in the evaluations.

This dissertation will explain relevant aspects about the real situation of the tents in the area of Praia do Futuro, especially about the social and environment function of urban property and the environmental justice. The paper also exposed now intends to make a exposition of the reasons for which are irregular the owner‘s of the tents before the Union, a fact which led to a Public civil Action in 2005, as the authors tell the Federal Public Ministry, the Union and, later, the Municipality itself Fortaleza, since several of them are mostly possible in the strip of beach, which is an asset of common use of Federal property and buildings is prohibited. The tide lands and high tide line are also objects of contention, especially among members of the judiciary, with the explanation of the legislation itself already very outdated and old, a fact tent undermines legal action fast and consistent. The role of social and environmental urban property is one of the main points of explanation in the course of this work, because the real owner of the place where the tents are is from the Union and most of the owner‘s of the tents, without authorization, builded and expanded their businesses, preventing the use of all of the area beach, apart from causing further environmental damage to the region, which hurts not only the natural environment, but also the dignity of bathers who do not have enough capital to use the products provided by the tents. Another point of great importance is the environmental justice, or environmental damage arising out of the tents of waste should be shared by all, especially the polluter (the principle of polluter pays), but unfortunately, there is so-called equity in environment site.
sta dissertação mostrará aspectos relevantes sobre a real situação na área das barracas da Praia do Futuro, especialmente no tocante aos aspectos referentes à função socioambiental da propriedade urbana e da justiça ambiental. O trabalho ora exposto também pretende fazer uma exposição dos motivos pelos quais os barraqueiros encontram-se irregulares perante à União, fato este que ensejou uma Ação civil Pública em 2005, contando como autores o Ministério Público Federal, a União e, posteriormente, o próprio Município de Fortaleza, visto que vários deles encontram-se, muito possivelmente, em faixa de praia, sendo esta um bem de uso comum do povo, de propriedade da União e no qual é proibida edificações. Os terrenos de marinha e a linha de preamar também são objetos de discórdia, especialmente entre os membros do judiciário, tendo como explicação a própria legislação já muito ultrapassada e antiga, fato este que prejudica medidas judiciais rápidas e consistentes. A função socioambiental da propriedade urbana é um dos principais pontos de explanação no decorrer desta dissertação, pois a real proprietária do local onde estão às barracas é da União e a maioria dos barraqueiros, sem autorização, construiu e ampliou seus negócios, impedindo o uso de todos da área da praia, além de causar ainda mais danos ambientais para a região, o que fere não somente o meio ambiente natural, como também a dignidade dos banhistas que não possuem o capital suficiente para se utilizarem dos produtos fornecidos pelas barracas. Outro ponto de grande importância é o da justiça ambiental, ou seja, os danos ambientais advindos dos resíduos das barracas deveriam ser compartilhados por todos, especialmente o poluidor (princípio do poluidor-pagador), mas, infelizmente, não existe a chamada equidade ambiental no local.

The main theme of this work concerns specification tests. What is meant by that is a set of procedures which has been used in the econometric literature since recent times and which allows validity or rejection of the specification hypothesis of a model : choice of variables, exogenous characteristics of some of them, choice of the dynamics structure. . . Rather than testing a hypothesis giving a specific value to parameters, one tries to find out whether the set of selected probabilities contains the "genuine" law from which data is issued. The work is organised in the following manner : - a theoretical section aimed at giving a rigorous framework where the main definitions concerning the specification of statistical model are presented within the privileged framework of a bayesian structure - a survey of recent literature on classical tests of specification with a special emphasis on their asymptotic properties. - a presentation of a bayesian approach of specification tests. - an example of application to a dynamical macro-economic model of the labour market in France in which exogeneity of the real salary is tested in the functions of labour search and supply

Alignment of parallel texts (texts that are translation of each other) is a required step for many applications that use parallel texts, including statistical machine translation, automatic extraction of translation equivalents, automatic creation of concordances, etc. This dissertation presents a new methodology for parallel texts alignment that departs from previous work in several ways. One important departure is a shift of goals concerning the use of lexicons for obtaining correspondences between the texts. Previous methods try to infer a bilingual lexicon as part of the alignment process and use it to obtain correspondences between the texts. Some of those methods can use external lexicons to complement the inferred one, but they tend to consider them as secondary. This dissertation presents several arguments supporting the thesis that lexicon inference should not be embedded in the alignment process. The method described complies with this statement and relies exclusively on externally managed lexicons to obtain correspondences. Moreover, the algorithms presented can handle very large lexicons containing terms of arbitrary length. Besides the exclusive use of external lexicons, this dissertation presents a new method for obtaining correspondences between translation equivalents found in the texts. It uses a decision criteria based on features that have been overlooked by prior work. The proposed method is iterative and refines the alignment at each iteration. It uses the alignment obtained in one iteration as a guide to obtaining new correspondences in the next iteration, which in turn are used to compute a finer alignment. This iterative scheme allows the method to correct correspondence errors from previous iterations in face of new information.

Automated unit tests are essential for the construction of reliable software, but writing them can be tedious. If the goal of test generation is to create a lasting unit test suite (and not just to optimize execution of system tests), it is essential that generated tests can be understood by the developers that will be running them, so that they can tell the difference between real and spurious failures. amock is a system which automatically generates human-readable JUnit regression tests that use mock objects to simulate the behavior of individual objects dynamically observed during a system test execution.

difficulties about kinematics graphs. In a three-tier test, first tier is classical multiple-choice question, the second tier is also classical multiple-choice question but presents reasons for answers given to the first tier and the third tier asks existence of confidence about the first two tiers. To develop a three-tier test, Turkish translation of the Test of Understanding Graphs in Kinematics (TUG-K) developed by Beichner (1994) was used. One more essay type question of asking students&rsquo
reasons of their answers and blank alternatives to write any suggestion different from choices were added to the each item of Turkish translation of this test translated by Delialioglu (2003). Finally, Kinematics Graphs Test Requesting Reasoning (KGTRR) was developed and administered to 253 students. To determine the distracters of the second-tiers of the Kinematics Graphs Three-Tier Test (KGTTT), answers on each item in KGTRR were categorized according to similarities in their meanings. Considering the frequency of these categories, the KGTTT was developed and administered to 495 students. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were used to determine the validity of the KGTTT. A positive correlation coefficient was calculated between student scores for the first two tiers and confidence levels for the third tiers. Also, percentages of false positives and false negatives were estimated. Cronbach alpha reliability coefficients of correct answers and difficulties of the students for all three tiers together were calculated as 0.84 and 0.69, respectively.

La construction de modèles d'asymétrie est un sujet de recherche qui a connu un grand développement ces dernières années, et l'obtention des tests optimaux (pour trois modèles différents) est une étape essentielle en vue de leur mise en application.
Notre approche est fondée sur la théorie de Le Cam d'une part, pour obtenir les propriétés de normalité asymptotique, bases de la construction des tests paramétriques optimaux, et la théorie de Hajek d'autre part, qui, via un principe d'invariance permet d'obtenir les procédures non-paramétriques.
Nous considérons dans ce travail deux classes de distributions univariées asymétriques, l'une fondée sur un développement d'Edgeworth (décrit dans le Chapitre 1), et l'autre construite en utilisant un paramètre d'échelle différent pour les valeurs positives et négatives (le modèle de Fechner, décrit dans le Chapitre 2).
Le modèle d'asymétrie elliptique étudié dans le dernier chapitre est une généralisation multivariée du modèle du Chapitre 2.
Pour chacun de ces modèles, nous proposons de tester l'hypothèse de symétrie par rapport à un centre fixé, puis par rapport à un centre non spécifié.
Après avoir décrit le modèle pour lequel nous construisons les procédures optimales, nous obtenons la propriété de normalité locale asymptotique. A partir de ce résultat, nous sommes capable de construire les tests paramétriques localement et asymptotiquement optimaux. Ces tests ne sont toutefois valides que si la densité sous-jacente f est correctement spécifiée. Ils ont donc le mérite de déterminer les bornes d'efficacité paramétrique, mais sont difficilement applicables.
Nous adaptons donc ces tests afin de pouvoir tester les hypothèses de symétrie par rapport à un centre fixé ou non, lorsque la densité sous-jacente est considérée comme un paramètre de nuisance.
Les tests que nous obtenons restent localement et asymptotiquement optimaux sous f, mais restent valides sous une large classe de densités.
A partir des propriétés d'invariance du sous-modèle identifié par l'hypothèse nulle, nous obtenons les tests de rangs signés localement et asymptotiquement optimaux sous f, et valide sous une vaste classe de densité. Nous présentons en particulier, les tests fondés sur les scores normaux (ou tests de van der Waerden), qui sont optimaux sous des hypothèses Gaussiennes, tout en étant valides si cette hypothèse n'est pas vérifiée.
Afin de comparer les performances des tests paramétriques et non paramétriques présentés, nous calculons les efficacités asymptotiques relatives des tests non paramétriques par rapport aux tests pseudo-Gaussiens, sous une vaste classe de densités non-Gaussiennes, et nous proposons quelques simulations.
