In 2017, the number of Americans living in poverty stood at just under 40 million, or approximately 12% of the total population. For these Americans, daily life presents not only a material struggle, but a psychological battle as well. For in addition to facing the hardships inherent in poverty, they must also contend with societal scorn and condemnation. In modern America, popular culture frequently blames the poor for their own condition, characterizing them as lazy, criminal, or unintelligent. This research explores the historical roots of these negative attitudes towards the poor. Specifically, this research asks how the residents of nineteenth-century Montgomery County, Virginia understood the county’s responsibility for providing poor relief, and what underlying values and beliefs informed that understanding. Using local government records and state legislative and administrative records, this research will argue that, largely because the county had not yet industrialized, poor relief in nineteenth-century Montgomery County diverged from national and regional trends in three significant respects.: attitudes towards the poor in Montgomery County tended to remain more benign than national attitudes well into the postbellum era; poor relief in Montgomery County was available to black residents, both before and after the Civil War; and Montgomery County continued to offer outdoor relief well into the postbellum era. An analysis of why poor relief differed to such a degree in a rural, Southern community, as opposed to more urban, Northern, or Midwestern locales, illuminates the effects of economy, geography, and demography on societal conceptions of the poor.

Full textOur research focus on the problem of choosing among value-creation strategies in the context of Oil and Gas development project. The objective is to offer tools to a decision maker to improve his understanding of the problem and to aid to decision. The thesis is structured around a decision-making process adapted to the Oil and Gas context and three research questions: 1. How to model the sustainable values brought by complex projects in a hostcountry? 2. How to furnish to a company a method to estimate local values brought, taking into account indirect and induced effects? 3. How to aid to select among strategies that impact multiple systems? To answer, we took into account the specificities of local content in the Oil and Gas. We brought metholodologies from industrial engineering and multicriteria decision aid. We propose a modeling of the value-added brought to a host country. This allows us to introduce an estimation methodology for the impacts of a strategy. Finally, we suggest a procedure for making recommendations to a decision maker

Full textIn public health several approaches have been proposed for the detection of outbreaks of infectious diseases where the characteristic being monitored is a time series of count data as the number of hospitalizations, where the population and the expected rate of admissions change over time. In this work we fitted generalized linear models (GLM) and implemented Shewhart and CUSUM control charts for monitoring the daily number of hospital admissions due to respiratory diseases for people aged 65 and older in the city of São Paulo. Through simulations, we evaluated the efficiency of implementing five different statistical for detecting changes in time series of count. One approach consisted of applying three transformations that only depend on the parameters of the negative binomial and Poisson distributions: The transformations of Rossi for data with Poisson distribution, the transformation proposed by Jorgensen for data with negative binomial distribution and residuals proposed by Anscombe for generalized linear models. The other statistics have been proposed as CUSUM charts: the method of Rogerson e Yamada (2004) was presented for data with Poisson distribution, in this work we proposed a new parameter kt for negative binomial distribution, the proposed method for Hohle (2007) uses the likelihood ratio statistic. Implementing limit control assuming normality for a value of ARL0 = 500 be monitored via simulation the serie of interest implementing the normalizing statistics. However, using these limits was observed a greater number of alarms for the three transformations. Modifying the parameter k of the CUSUM chart to this change over time the series was monitored and were obtained values of ARL0 close to 500. The CUSUM control charts for the methods of Rogerson and Yamada and Holhe for data with negative binomial distribution showed, by simulation, good results for detecting changes in the mean. For negative binomial distribution generalizing the method of Rogerson e Yamada (2004) and implemented the CUSUM charts using the likelihood ratio statistic. Both methods provided good results via simulation to detect small changes in average. The evaluation of assumptions of normality for the statistics proposed by Rossi, Jorgensen and Anscombe generally is omitted in published studies. In this work, we evaluated this assumptions indicating that the statistics are not normal using the real dataset but are independent and stationary. By analyzing real data, due to the persistence of correlation for the normalized statistics, an approach based on setting GARMA model was proposed. This method showed good results once the residuals of the fitted model were normal and independent.

How much to watering holes, 29% only they possess covering, 59% does not possess adjusted cover, in 33% occurs entered of torrent water in the interior of the watering hole, 43% are distant of courses dágua, and the distance average to that they are next is of 12 meters, what it showed to be the most likely factor of contamination of the water. One evidenced that 70% of the interviewed ones are unaware of basic norms of construction and maintenance of watering holes. According to perception of the interviewed inhabitants whose average escolaridade of 3,2 years of study, 100% classifies the consumed water as being excellent or good, but, contraditoriamente, 77% believe to have pathogenic microorganisms in the water that consume. In 47% of the searched residences it did not have domestic filter for water. The clorador in 10 watering holes was implanted that had presented contamination for coliformes, observed it that in three subsequent microbiological analyses (10, 20 and 33 days after implantation), did not have detention of total and fecais coliformes in the samples. The set free active chlorine text for the clorador was always below of 0,2 mg L-1, and same with 0,1 lesser texts that mg L-1 did not have detention of coliformes. According to perception of the interviewed inhabitants, the clorador does not intervene significantly with the palate and smells of the water, what it does not discourage its use. It was concluded in this study, that the clorador simplified for diffusion is an efficient, simple method, of low cost, and that it must have its use stimulated together to the population that does not have access to the treated water, aspect that in very will contribute so that the risks of transmission of illnesses of hídrica propagation are scrumbled.lt;/pgt;

O presente trabalho versa sobre a persistência de formas contemporâneas de escravidão, praticada contra trabalhadores rurais do Brasil, mais precisamente do Norte do país. Neste sentido, abordaremos o fato de que a escravidão no Brasil teria sido apenas formalmente abolida, pois ela ainda ela ainda é presença constante neste país. Com isto, será trazido ao debate uma forma específica de escravidão muito utilizada em nosso país, qual seja, a escravidão por dívida do trabalhador rural, mostrando suas peculiaridades, quem são os envolvidos, e quais são os fatores que contribuem para que a escravidão seja uma chaga aberta em nosso país. Também será abordado, o fato de que erradicar o trabalho escravo, é uma necessidade de todas as nações, tendo em vista que escravidão é uma das mais graves violações aos direitos humanos, eis que não retira do ser humano apenas a sua liberdade, mas também a sua dignidade. Desta forma, erradicar o trabalho escravo tornou-se prioridade nacional, pois só podemos falar em Estado Dem

Full textLOAC is an optical aerosol counter which allows atmospheric particles from 0.2 to 100µ m to be counted and classified by size range. This instrument consists of a laser which illuminates a chamber where the particles are injected by pumping. The light scattered by each of them is then measured from two angles, which makes it possible to assess the nature of the aerosols (liquid, salts, soot, etc.). Manufactured in more than 150 copies, this sensor has been used to document the layers of the atmosphere using balloons in all regions of the world since 2011. The objective of this thesis is to detail how works the different subsystems of the instrument and to propose a performance improved version for the planetary atmospheres’ exploration. In the introduction, this thesis presents the scientific interest of LOAC for space exploration and recalls the logic of development and the advantages of this device compared to the many other devices intended to characterize aerosols. In a second part, the detailed sizing of an engineering version is proposed in order to introduce new functionalities essential to any space instrument. Finally, the last part of this document focuses on the design of a more efficient version incorporating new concepts on both the hardware and software levels

In addition, it is explained which were the strategies and income forms of the main foreign department stores and the theories that are behind their incursion.In the same way, the main objective of this research is to establish the relationship that exists between macroeconomic factors with the internationalization of department stores in the Peruvian market during the period 2009 to 2017.Also, the type of research used was quantitative, correlational, non-experimental longitudinal trend design. The statistical technique used was correlational analysis of Rho Spearman. Using the statistical tool SPSS, it is verified whether there is a correlation between macroeconomic factors and the internationalization of department stores Saga Falabella, Ripley and Almacenes París in the Peruvian market. In the case of the Saga Falabella, the competency index is the most important presentation in the internationalization of the same in Peru during the years 2009 and 2017. As for Department Stores Ripley, the GDP is the indicator that correlates with greater significance. However, it is important to mention that, due to the little information available for Almacenes París, an evolutive descriptive analysis can be developed through the graphs showing the macroeconomic indicators that correlate with the internationalization of the company during the years 2013 and 2017.

Full textOnera has been developing vibrating inertial MEMS sensors with performances good enough for space uses. Associated conventional analog electronics are not limiting the physical performances of the sensors. They are, however, bulky, not reconfigurable, and do not deliver digital measurements to the on-board computer. Furthermore, when used for space applications, they have to cope with dependency and obsolescence requiring a new qualification when any part is changed.This thesis offers a new digital generic architecture with as few analog parts as possible. Work has been focused on two sensors developed by Onera: the VIA, a vibrating beam accelerometer, and the VIG, a Coriolis vibrating gyro, but can address other sensors. A first digital function identified is event timestamping for frequency and phase measurements; a second key function is the direct digital synthesis of the oscillating sensors driving signal; the third one generates pure sine signals from binary sequences output from the digital platform. These function are implemented as peripherals of an embedded processor on a FPGA.This dissertation firstly reminds physical laws and technologies of inertial measurements, followed by a quick review of oscillators, analog and digital, in order to introduce the chosen digital architecture. A following chapter studies the theory of the digital functions considered and identifies their performances. Afterwards, realisations and first experimental results are exposed, at a function level first, at a global level then, with the sensor and the embedded software to provide real inertial readings. The results gathered boost the idea of deploying digital electronics in future sensor releases

Full textEsca grapevine disease is one of the incurable dieback disease with the etiology not completely elucidated. It represents one of the major threats for viticulture around the world. To better understand the underlying process of esca spread and the risk factors of this disease, we carried out quantitative analyses of the spatio-temporal development of esca at vineyard scale. In order to detect the spatial correlation among the diseased vines, the non-parametric statistical tests were applied to the spatio-temporal data of esca foliar symptom expression for 15 vineyards in Bordeaux region. Among vineyards, a large range of spatial patterns, from random to strongly structured, were found. In the vineyards with strongly aggregated patterns, no significant increase in the size of cluster and local spread from symptomatic vines was shown, suggesting an effect of the environment in the explanation of this aggregation. To model the foliar symptom occurrence, we developed hierarchical logistic regression models by integrating exogenous covariates, covariates of neighboring symptomatic vines already diseased, and also a latent process with spatio-temporal auto-correlation. The Bayesian inferences of these models were performed by INLA (Inverse Nested Laplace Approximation) approach. The results confirmed the effect of environmental factors on the occurrence risk of esca symptom. The secondary locally spread of esca from symptomatic vines located on the same row or out of row was not shown. A two-step centered auto-logistic regression model, which explicitly integrated the spatio-temporal neighboring structure, was also developed. At last, a geostatistical method was proposed to interpolate data with a particular anisotropic structure. It allowed interpolating the ancillary variable, electrical resistivity of soil, which were used to estimate the available soil water content at vine-scale. These geostatistical methods and spatio-temporal statistical methods developed in this thesis offered outlook to identify risk factors, and thereafter to predict the development of esca grapevine disease in different agronomical contexts

Full textThere is an uneasy relationship between the buildings of public social welfare institutions and historic preservation because of the stigma associated with those persons housed there and the unpleasant social history they can represent. These and other issues present preservation challenges unique to public social welfare institutions. Using the Oregon State Hospital and the Multnomah County Poor Farm as case studies, this thesis explores the history of these two sites within a national context of the development of state psychiatric hospitals and county poor farms. Using case study methodology, the recent experiences with historic preservation policy and practice at the two sites will be used to demonstrate typical challenges at such stigmatized sites and offer recommendations for preserving them in Oregon.

This performance was a decisive moment in his theatrical trajectory. Besides being a brilliant interpretation of a classic work of the Russian literature written by an author not widely known in this country, it was the starting point of development of the first elements of Stanislavskys \"system\", which would define new possibilities for the art of the actor. This dissertation presents the creation process of the spectacle, reflects on the first seeds of Stanislavskys \"system\" and analyses the directors interpretive approaches to the poetic drama of A Month in the Country.

Full textIn 1930, France established the Autonomous Territory of Inini, an administrative division governing French Guiana's hinterland. Once Guiana had become an overseas department, the formula was renewed from 1951 in the shape of a district with special status, remaining so officially until 1961 and in effect until 1969. Discussing this politico-administrative system - largely based on what had been worked out for French colonies in Africa – gives a key to understanding the ultimate stage of the French state's expansion process in a social and cultural Amazonian context. That effort at social integration was the work of civil servants in the field who, from 1936 on, conducted a sustained policy of contact by establishing administrative posts in the interior of the territory and at its borders. These low-ranking colonial officers and gendarmes implemented an administrative approach to the handling of various communities – deportees from Southeast Asia held in special jails, border tribes or gold-diggers – across areas under the political influence of neighbouring states. The Inini file is an encouragement not to limit the history of French Guiana to that of an old colony turned into an overseas department (D.O.M.) in 1946. It makes it possible to go beyond analyses which are linked to assimilation policies. It also tends to moderate the anthropological view of an artificial and hasty integration of forest tribes. Lastly, it paves the way for a comparative analysis of Guyanese back countries
A França criou, em 1930, o Território autónomo do Inini, colónia de administração directa dahinterlândia da Guiana francesa. Após a départementalisação da Guiana, este dispositivocontinuou em 1951 sob a forma de distrito à estatuto específico (particular), juridicamente até1961 e de facto até 1969. A descrição deste sistema politicoadministrativo, fortementeinspirado de estas concebidas para as colónias da África, permite analisar a ultima etapa doprocesso de expansão do Estado francês num espaço social e cultural amazónico. Estaintegração foi a obra dos funcionários de terreno que levaram, a partir de 1936, uma políticacontínua de contato no âmbito de uma implantação dinâmica de postos administrativos emdireção do interior e das fronteiras. Este pessoal subalterno, funcionários coloniais egendarmes, implementou uma técnica administrativa de abordagem e gestão das populações -déportados indochineses dos Estabelecimentos Penitenciários Especiais, tribos de fronteira egarimpeiros - num espaço aberto às políticas dos Estados vizinhos. A história do Inini incita anão limitar a história da Guiana francesa à essa de uma velha colónia que tornou-se, em 1946,em Departamento de Ultramar (D.O.M.). Permite ultrapassar esta análise que diz respeito aodiscurso político assimilacionista. Ela nuança também a interpretação pela antropologia deuma integração de populações silvícolas artificialmente e apressadamente conduzida. Porúltimo, abre o caminho à uma análise comparativa do interior (da hinterlândia) das Guianes
In 1930 werd door Frankrijk het zelfstandige gebied Inini gecreëerd, het onder directkoloniaal bestuur vallende achterland van Frans Guyana. Nadat Guyana een overzeesdepartement was geworden, bleef deze bestuursvorm bestaan tot in 1951 in de vorm van eenarrondissement met speciaal statuut, in rechte tot 1961 et feitelijk tot 1969. De beschrijvingvan deze bestuursvorm die sterk werd beïnvloed door het voor de Afrikaanse koloniënontwikkelde systeem, maakt het mogelijk het laatste stadium van het expansieproces van deFranse overheid te analyseren in het sociale en culturele gebied van de Amazone. Deze socialeintegratie was het werk van ambtenaren die ter plaatse, vanaf 1936, een aanhoudend contactbeleid uitvoerden bij de oprichting van administratieve posten in het binnenland van hetgebied en aan de grenzen. Dit ondergeschikte personeel, ambtenaren en politie, voerden eenbestuursbeleid uit van benadering en behandeling van de bevolking - indo-chinesegedeporteerden bewaard in speciale strafkampen, aan de grenzen levende stammen engoudzoekers – in een gebied dat open stond voor politieke invloed van de buurtstaten. Degeschiedenis van het Inini gebied nodigt uit de geschiedenis van Frans Guyana niet tebeperken tot die van een oude kolonie die in 1946 een overzees gebiedsdeel (D.O.M.) isgeworden. Zij nuanceert tevens de antropologische interpretatie van een te kunstmatige en tesnel uitgevoerde integratie van de woudbevolking. En ten laatste opent zij de weg naar eenvergelijkende analyse van de achterlanden van Guyana

Full textThis research intends to be part of the Dutch art historiography’s renewal. The traditional opposition between North and South, Calvinism and Catholicism, History painting and Genre painting is no longer relevant. Although the Reformed church was the public church, the choice of personal religion permitted « sects », like Catholicism, Anabaptism, Lutheranism, to remain active. The presence of Catholics in the calvinist Dutch Republic during the 17th century maintains a demand for paintings : religious art works for churches or private devotion, portraits of the clergy or catholic lay, allegory of the catholic faith. I considered not only the expectations of Catholics in terms of painting, but also the responses of the painters whether they were Catholic or not. My aim is to extend the knowlegde of the production and reception of paintings during the age of the Counter-Reformation in an uncommon political and geographic situation
