Si le concept de garantie reflète avant tout la défiance des parties les unes vis-à-vis des autres, il traduit aussi le besoin de confiance de chacune d’elle, propice à faciliter les échanges, à conforter la situation du créancier et la surface financière du débiteur et, plus généralement, à sécuriser le marché. Dans le cadre des opérations de financement (opérations de crédit, opérations de refinancement, emprunts obligataires et financements structurés), l’importance des garanties et des contre-garanties est liée à la volonté et au rôle des parties à l’opération et influencée par le cadre po

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to analyze differences between IPOs with integer (e.g. $20,00) and non-integer (e.g. $20,32) offer prices on the post-decimalization US market. Research on IPOs suggests that there are viable differences between, and valuable information within, integer and non-integer prices. However, proposed effects on the information content of prices as a result of decimalization on US markets in 2001 motivates more up-to-date research on the subject. Our findings show that, while integer IPOs have higher initial return, uncertainty and offer price levels, there is no proof o

Abstract:
Hybrid trap experiments are set-ups that allow to study the interaction between ions and atoms in cold controlled environment. In such context, molecular anions present specific theoretical and experimental interests and challenges. In this work, we have used extensive \textit{ab initio} methods to investigate several collisional anionic systems: (1) M + OH$^{-}$ (where M are alkali or alkaline earth atoms), (2) Rb and H + OH(H$_{2}$O)$_{n}^{-}$ (with $n=0,1,2,3,4$) and (3) Rb and Li + C$_{2}^{-}$. Several molecular properties such as vertical detachment energies or electroaffinities, optimize

Abstract:
Nas últimas décadas, o desenvolvimento da criatividade vem sendo debatido e tratado como característica fundamental aos indivíduos que se encontram no mercado de trabalho. No caso da carreira docente, tal fato não se mostra diferente, sendo recorrentes os pedidos de professores com uma ampla capacidade de criar novas e inovadoras intervenções didáticas frente ao caráter imprevisível do cotidiano escolar. Desse modo, o presente trabalho busca compreender como se dá o processo de criação de novos conhecimentos pedagógicos de conteúdo por parte de futuros professores de Física, elencando elemento

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Chemical Engineering, 2000.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaves 195-207).<br>Supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) is a process which runs at 250 bar and 400- 6000 C to effect rapid and complete destruction of aqueous organics. The SCWO process streams are very corrosive and pose a materials performance challenge to even noble metals and the most advanced alloys. Corrosion in chlorinated, acidic streams at transitional temperatures (100-400° C) in a Hastelloy C-276 tube is examined through post-failure analysis and contr

Abstract:
AgCdO is one of the most widely used contact materials in the world because of its outstanding performance. Nevertheless, due to environmental considerations, it will soon be completely forbidden by European environmental directives. Therefore, finding a good substitute is of crucial importance. Electrical arc erosion plays a crucial role in the reliability and life of power switching devices. Depending on the contact material's behavior in response to an electrical arc, surface damage can induce severe changes in contact material properties that will impact the power switching device's func
