Texto completoThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the relationship between urban planning and sustainable development in relation to urban development policy and in particular the territorial management. In our design approach, we focus on the different dynamics (travel and mobility) moreover, morphological and structural changes (land uses) on the scale of the urban area in order to single public decision in urban development long lasting. Our choices were enrolled voluntarily in a trans-disciplinary logic has proved to be particularly suited to our different theoretical, methodological and empirical appeal.Treat the Tunisian context in transition; this research proposes a hybrid public decision model to determine the features of an adapted urban planning to different contexts and current requirements of sustainability. Using both foresight technics, integrated land use-transportation models, simulation and multi-criteria analysis technics allowed us an integrated and iterative construction of several levels of partial evaluation and a level of overall evaluation. The model designed and tested for the town of Sousse will allow policy makers to have a synthetic grid information from a decision as complete as possible account of urban reality. It offers different levels of thematic evaluation and a global level integrating all. The approach can be used as reference to other Tunisian cities and will therefore have a real impact on the quality of their development

Texto completoThis PhD thesis focuses on developing a path tracking approach based on visual perception and localization in urban environments. The proposed approach comprises two systems. The first one concerns environment perception. This task is carried out using deep learning techniques to automatically extract 2D visual features and use them to learn in order to distinguish the different objects in the driving scenarios. Three deep learning techniques are adopted: semantic segmentation to assign each image pixel to a class, instance segmentation to identify separated instances of the same class and, image classification to further recognize the specific labels of the instances. Here our system segments 15 object classes and performs traffic sign recognition. The second system refers to path tracking. In order to follow a path, the equipped vehicle first travels and records the route with a stereo vision system and a GPS receiver (learning step). The proposed system analyses off-line the GPS path and identifies exactly the locations of dangerous (sharp) curves and speed limits. Later after the vehicle is able to localize itself, the vehicle control module together with our speed negotiation algorithm, takes into account the information extracted and computes the ideal speed to execute. Through experimental results of both systems, we prove that, the first one is capable to detect and recognize precisely objects of interest in urban scenarios, while the path tracking one reduces significantly the lateral errors between the learned and traveled path. We argue that the fusion of both systems will ameliorate the tracking approach for preventing accidents or implementing autonomous driving

Texto completoThe research conducted in this thesis is centered on the domain of safe urban driving, employing sensor fusion and reinforcement learning methodologies for the perception and control of autonomous vehicles (AV). The evolution and widespread integration of machine learning technologies have primarily propelled the proliferation of autonomous vehicles in recent years. However, substantial progress is requisite before achieving widespread adoption by the general populace. To accomplish its automation, autonomous vehicles necessitate the integration of an array of costly sensors, including cameras, radars, LiDARs, and ultrasonic sensors. In addition to their financial burden, these sensors exhibit susceptibility to environmental variables such as weather, a limitation not shared by human drivers who can navigate diverse conditions with a reliance on simple frontal vision. Moreover, the advent of decision-making neural network algorithms constitutes the core intelligence of autonomous vehicles. Deep Reinforcement Learning solutions, facilitating end-to-end driver policy learning, have found application in elementary driving scenarios, encompassing tasks like lane-keeping, steering control, and acceleration management. However, these algorithms demand substantial time and extensive datasets for effective training. In addition, safety must be considered throughout the development and deployment phases of autonomous vehicles.The first contribution of this thesis improves vehicle localization by fusing data from GPS and IMU sensors with an adaptation of a Kalman filter, ES-EKF, and a reduction of noise in IMU measurements.This method excels in urban environments marked by signal obstructions and elevated noise levels, effectively mitigating the adverse impact of noise in IMU sensor measurements, thereby maintaining localization accuracy and robustness. The algorithm is deployed and tested employing ground truth data on an embedded microcontroller. The second contribution introduces the DPPO-IL (Dynamic Proximal Policy Optimization with Imitation Learning) algorithm, designed to facilitate end-to-end automated parking while maintaining a steadfast focus on safety. This algorithm acquires proficiency in executing optimal parking maneuvers while navigating static and dynamic obstacles through exhaustive training incorporating simulated and real-world data.The third contribution is an end-to-end urban driving framework called GHRL. It incorporates vision and localization data and expert demonstrations expressed in the Answer Set Programming (ASP) rules to guide the hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) exploration policy and speed up the learning algorithm's convergence. When a critical situation occurs, the system relies on safety rules, which empower it to make prudent choices amidst unpredictable or hazardous conditions. GHRL is evaluated on the Carla NoCrash benchmark, and the results show that by incorporating logical rules, GHRL achieved better performance over state-of-the-art algorithms

Texto completoUrban drainage networks and sewer systems evaluation and diagnosis, in the aim of their rehabilitation, need data acquisition, and system and components modelling. Our work deals with the organisation of diagnosis studies through a certain number of questions as : •Which informations should be acquired to enable the study of the structural and functional state of men-entry sewer and urban drainage networks estate ? •How can priorities be defined in data acquisition ? •Which reliability problems can we identify in an hierarchised process ? •etc. . . . . The report tackles with these aspects through three major parts. Divided into three chapters (1 to 3), the first part treats of generalities and exposes the problem. In the first chapter, to be able to understand the evolution of their maintenance through the years, we traced the history of urban technical networks, and illustrated their "bad health" by using the results of several international surveys. In the second chapter, it seemed important to us to take time and defined the terms used in our work, definition then proposed to be a common terminology between the different actors of this multidisciplinary field. In chapter 3 we present the results of the bibliographical study concerning the different recognition tools, which can be used through a diagnosis study. Three types of pre-diagnosis are concerned by these tools : geometrical, hydraulics and of waterproofness, and geotechnical and hydrogeological. In the second part we present a conceptual schema of the diagnosis, which is divided into four chapters (4 to 7). In chapter 4, we go through the different interactions between sewer and urban drainage networks on one side, and their different environments on the other side. Further more, we expose the component’s behaviour in these different contexts. In fact, we are most interested in using this knowledge to put in place the adaptation to the urban drainage and sewer networks of the causes-consequences diagram elaborated in the industrial safety studies. To put in place this idea, we defined two "great families" of data : basic data which are necessary for a good diagnosis, and that are detailed in chapter 5 ; and the orientation data useful to guide the decision makers through a diagnosis study, and that are detailed in chapter 6. For both families, we exposed the different means of data acquisition at different levels of fineness that can be considered. To illustrate our conceptual schema proposal, we present in chapter 7 five examples of degradation mechanisms relative to egg-shaped men-entry sections : crown collapse, belly, divergence of haunches, floor collapse, and section shattering. In the third part we present two direct applications of the conceptual schema : the first is done through the evolution of the possible state of the section studied (chapter 8) ; and the second is done through the study of the history of the section studied as well as of the vulnerability of its environments, in the process of a decision making aid (chapter 9). After the application of the first step of the RERAU1 methodology on 206 sections of the Communauté Urbaine de Lyon sewer and urban drainage networks, we propose in chapter 8 to put in place two types of presumption indexes : "a priori presumption index" evaluated by studying the degradation factors present within and around the section studied ; and "presumption with respect to symptoms index" evaluated through the results and the degradations noted during the surveys made upon the section studied. A first application of these indexes is made by using data available on a certain number of sections of the sewer and urban drainage networks estate of the Communauté Urbaine de Lyon and in the Ile-de-France. In chapter 9 we present the first elements needed for putting in place a sewer and urban drainage networks Maintenance Management System. This system is completed by presenting the indexes of criticity relative to the natural and urban environments. In the general conclusion we draw up a balance sheet of our work. It deals with : the conceptual schema proposed ; the knowledge and data available ; the presumption indexes proposed as well as their first application. The perspectives stated are relative to the carrying on of the research, and to the implementing, for the sewer and urban drainage networks managers, of a diagnosis aid system

Texto completoThe aim of this work is the interpolation of a mean flow stream from discreet data supplied by a Doppler velocimeter. This is why a precise flow modeling needs to be implemented in a code designed for sewer net conduit. A 2D mesh is used to calculate 3D velocity flow. This work deals with the description of a Reynolds stress model for the numerical modeling of uniform 3D turbulent open-channel flows. The turbulence model is low-Reynolds one in order to enable the viscosity-affected region to be resolved including the viscous sublayer. Therefore, in order to consider the damping effects at the free surface and the redistribution of turbulent kinetic energy effects at the wall, a combinations of (Shir, 1973), (Gibson & Launder, 1978) and (Cokljat, 1993) models are added to the pressure-strain term. The finite volume method is used for the numerical solution (with Matlab) of the flow equations and transport equations of the Reynolds stress components. K-ε model has been implanted to compare with the developed model; it is found that both production terms by anisotropy of Reynolds normal stress and by Reynolds shear stress contribute to the generation of secondary currents. The results presented here are compared with results predicted by the RSM model of (Kang & Choi, 2005) employing wall functions and with experimental data of (Nezu & Rodi, 1985). There is a good agreement between the measurements and the results predicted. Effects of low corner’s wall shear stress on Reynolds stress are underlined. The computed flow vectors in the plane normal to the main flow direction show secondary currents and moreover a small vortex, called inner secondary currents, located at the juncture of the sidewall and the free surface. Then experimental cases are modeled, good agreement of flow rate predicted with measurement was found. Finally test bench has been created for velocity channel measurements. An automated portal structure has been assembled all around a 20m long channel to fix onto the ADV and PIV sensors

Texto completoThe architectural and urbanistic language often sets the problem of the perception of a space in terms of fitting and recurrence of certain elements which, by their space provision combined with the movement of walk, generate a rhythm which seems to be one of the components of the perceptive organization of the passer-by. This synchronic phenomenon requires a system of anticipation so that the passer-by coordinates the visual stimulus with the movement he engages. However, the synchronization, which is distinguished from the reaction, can also constitute a spontaneous system of answer of the man. Do we have to speak of intention or driving induction ? The processes implied in the psychomotor treatment of the passer-by inside a rhythmic architectural or urban space will be studied by observing quality and persistence of the rhythmic groupings that he perceives. Various experiments gathered under three aspects (psychological, emotional and behavioural) will enable us to study the effect of the motor activity on the rhythmic visual perception of traversed space. We will try to show that the perception of the rhythmic groupings results from the driving and visual methods suggesting a supramodal treatment of temporal intervals where a go and back between the perceptive activity and motricity organizes the short times and long times in groups with differentiated elements. Individual differences of the “sense of rhythm” being explained by the double role of the perceptive structuration and the driving intention of the successive

Texto completoInsufficient public and municipal investment represent a major challenge for the long term management of urban drainage systems. Utilities are challenged to develop efficient rehabilitation strategies in order to maintain the level of service. Closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection is used since the 1980’s as industry standard for sewer investigation system and structural performance evaluation. Due to budget restrictions, inspection rates are generally low and municipalities tend to inspect only a small part of their network (e.g. in France, less than 5% according to Ahmadi et al., 2014). Since the definition of rehabilitation strategies is limited by the lack of information about sewer condition and remaining life, deterioration models have been developed to forecast the evolution of the system according to its current and past condition. One of the main factors hampering the uptake of deterioration modelling by utilities is the lack of real scale evidence of the tangible benefits provided. In particular, most utilities are concerned by the minimum amount of CCTV data required and the relevance of using such models on their networks with limited data availability. Finally, most utilities acknowledge the uncertainties in the procedure of sewer condition assessment, mainly due to the subjectivity of the coding operator. There is a strong need to quantify precisely the uncertainty of the sewer condition assessment procedure and its influence on the outcomes of deterioration modelling. The thesis aims at addressing these gaps by assessing the performance of sewer deterioration modelling using a case study with high CCTV data availability and by identifying the influence of CCTV data quality and availability on modelling performance. The study has been performed with a statistical (GompitZ) and a machine learning (Random Forest) deterioration models using the extensive CCTV database of the cities of Braunschweig and Berlin in Germany. Our results show, that at network level, both machine learning and statistical models can simulate with sufficient accuracy the condition distribution of the network, even in case of low data availability. At the pipe level, the machine learning model outperforms the statistical model. Regarding CCTV data uncertainty, our results highlight that the probability to inspect correctly a pipe in poor condition is close to 80-85% and thus the probability to overestimate the (good) condition of the pipe is close to 15-20% (False Negative). The impact of the uncertainties on the prediction of a deterioration model is not negligible. The analysis shows that the required replacement rate to maintain a constant proportion of segments in poor condition is underestimated if the uncertainties are not included in the analysis

The human living in society, and especially in urban areas, requires the definition of rules that are appropriated for the planning and for the arrengement of collective life. To achieve this, human societies have created mechanisms for the organization of spaces and activities that enable groups to live in greater harmony. The analysis of the formation of urban life in the interior of Goiás, with emphasis on Jataí from the late nineteenth century until the end of the 1920s, takes place from legislative documents called the municipal codes, which are used as elements for guiding research. The prominence in shaping urban and addressing hygiene and sanitation present in these documents enables the perception of so-called civilizing process and the material transformations of urban space. It points out the main features of European and Brazilian urbanization, especially the motivations of the rapid growth of cities during the period considered, with focus to the case of Goiás. It analyzes the attitudes of urban Jataí as an element of control of the city and shaping a new way of living in public space. The case of the city of Jataí is studied to show how the legislation sought to interfere with everyday people just out of rural areas, revealing the action of so-called 'civilizing process' of the local society. Through the analysis of archival documents, it is understood as was the organization of public space and how the legislation affects the municipal acts on individuals. Small inland towns as Jataí went through a process guided by the dictates of civilization medicalsanitary and moral of the nineteenth century, which originated in Europe and influenced the whole modern world, which contributes significantly to the model of city that we experience today.
A convivência humana no meio social e, acima de tudo no meio urbano, implica a delimitação de normas e condutas apropriadas ao ordenamento da vida coletiva. As sociedades humanas têm criado mecanismos de organização dos espaços e das ações que permitem aos grupos viver em maior harmonia. A análise da formação da vida urbana no interior goiano, com ênfase para Jataí, a partir do final do século XIX até o fim da década de 1920, se dá a partir de documentos legislativos denominados de códigos de posturas municipais, que são utilizados como elementos norteadores para as pesquisas. A proeminência na conformação urbana e na questão higiênico-sanitarista presente em tais documentos permite a percepção do chamado processo civilizador e das transformações materiais do espaço urbano. Aponta-se as principais características da urbanização européia e brasileira, destacando-se as motivações do crescimento acelerado das cidades no período considerado, com foco para o caso de Goiás. Analisa-se as posturas urbanas de Jataí como elemento do controle da cidade e de conformação de um novo modo de viver no espaço público. O caso da cidade de Jataí é estudado de modo a mostrar como a legislação buscou interferir no cotidiano da população recém-saída do meio rural, revelando a ação do chamado 'processo civilizador' da sociedade local. Através da análise de documentação arquivística, entende-se como ocorreu a organização do espaço público e como a legislação de posturas municipais interfere age sobre os indivíduos. Pequenas cidades interioranas como Jataí passaram por um processo de civilização pautado pelos ditames médicosanitaristas e morais do século XIX, que tiveram origem na Europa e influenciaram todo o mundo moderno, o que contribui decisivamente para o modelo de cidade que vivenciamos atualmente.

Texto completoThe theoretical framework of housing psychology is rather eclectic. Different models can be classified in three main categories: determinist, cognitivists and interactionist models. This categorization reflects historical as well as logical developments. The purpose of the work is to compare the efficiency of these models to explain empirical data. The author exposes a longitudinal study in which 120 families of identical economic level were interviewed twice. The survey was carried out in two areas, built and first occupied at the same time, with different planning and distance to the town center. There were two types of housing (semi-detached houses and apartments) for rent or for purchase in both areas. The results of this study are compared with many other researches on different aspects of housing: choice, decoration and fittings behaviours and neighborhood integration. Confronted to empirical data complementarity and limits of the different theoretical models came into sight

Texto completoUrban guided transport systems evolution places the human operator in front of dynamic control context. This thesis responds to the problematic regarding adaptability and reactivity of operating staff who have to be versatile, may pursue their task on different line, with different rolling stock, in different driving mode or in a different driving context (integral site or urban site). This study proposes a model called MAdRéH (for model of the human adaptability and reactivity) and an assessment method of the human reactivity and adaptability. The goal of the study is to improve the analysis of factors in relation with the safety of transport system operating. Validation reasoning was made. It consists in the application of the human adaptation and reaction assessment methodology to an incident database and to experimental data. These data were obtained by experimentation on a simulation platform called CoR&Gest (for railway driving and traffic control) of the LAMIH. Finally, this reasoning is able to integrate the human operator contribution in urban guided transport driving. His contribution is described as a factor of degradation or improvement of the system performance criteria such as safety, quality or workload

Texto completoIntelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) developments are conceived to improve transportation reducing accidents, transport time and fuel consumption, while increasing driving security, comfort and efficiency. The final goal of ITS is the development of ADAS for assisting in the driving tasks, up to the development of the fully automated vehicle. Despite last ADAS developments achieved a partial-automation level, current systems are not robust enough to achieve fully-automated level in short term. Urban environments pose a special challenge, since the dynamism of the scene forces the navigation algorithms to react in real-time to the eventual changes, respecting at the same time traffic regulation and avoiding collisions with other road users. On this basis, this PhD thesis proposes a two-staged local planning approach to provide a solution to the navigation problem on urban environments. First, static information of both road and vehicle constraints is considered to generate the optimal curve for each feasible turn configuration, where several databases are generated taking into account different position of the vehicle at the beginning and ending points of the curves, allowing the real-time planner to analyze concavity changes making use of the full lane width.Then, actual road layout is contemplated in the real-time process, where both the available distance and the sharpness of upcoming and consecutive turns are studied to provide a human-like driving style optimizing two curves concurrently, offering that way an extended planning horizon. Therefore, the real-time planning process searches the optimal junction point between curves. Optimality criteria minimizes both curvature peaks and abrupt changes on it, seeking the generation of continuous and smooth paths. Quartic Béziers are the interpolating-based curve algorithm used due to their properties, allowing compliance with road limits and kinematic restrictions, while allowing an easy manipulation of curves. This planner works both for static and dynamic environments. Obstacle avoidance features are presented based on the generation of a virtual lane which modifies the static path to perform each of the two lane change maneuvers as two curves, converting the problem into a static-path following. Thus, a fast solution can be found benefiting from the static local planner. It uses a grid discretization of the scene to identify the free space to build the virtual road, where the dynamic planning criteria is to reduce the slope for the lane changes. Both simulation and experimental test have been carried out to validate the approach, where vehicles performs path following on static and dynamic environments adapting the path in function of the scenario and the vehicle, testing both with low-speed cybercars and medium-speed electic platforms, showing the modularity of the system

La segunda, en la que se pasa a la escala de distrito, indaga sobre las transformaciones de diversos espacios y sus diseños actuales en Ciutat Vella y Nou Barris. La tercera, que se adentra en el ámbito de las relaciones sociales, examina las consecuencias de lo anterior en las conductas de los individuos. A lo largo de estas páginas se evidencia cómo el modo de gestión municipal del espacio público ha priorizado la producción económica sobre las formas de reproducción social articulando los impulsos del capitalismo en Ciutat Vella y, Barcelona en general, y cómo, en Nou Barris, se pasó de una gestión paternalista con fines políticos a diseños homogéneos como los del resto de la ciudad.
This thesis developments three perspectives about how the public space has been managed in the neoliberal era in Barcelona. First, it has been analysed how the local investments are localised, distributed and classified in the public space in Barcelona City. Second, the research shows how different areas the both districts, Ciutat Vella and Nou Barris, have been transformed and designed. Finally, the last analysis examines how the spatial transformations, mentioned above, have influenced upon the social relationship of the users in the studied areas. Municipal management about public space in Barcelona City increasingly articulates the impulses of capitalist production rather than social reproduction. This process is consolidated in Ciutat Vella but, also, in Barcelona City. In Nou Barris, a homogenised design, similar to the rest of the city, has replaced a more paternalist management of the space.

Thus: how do the practices of governmentality of conducts, resulting from urban population agglomerates in the relationship with their unbearable, especially with their waste, actualize?

In the process of updating the techniques of governmentality, one sees the metamorphosis of substances considered as garbage, because what once was outlined in putrid and mephitic materials, posteriorly, is multiplied in synthetic, disposable and useless...

Que tecnologias e procedimentos apresentam-se como instrumentos de organização das condutas? Dentro de quais parâmetros de aceitabilidade se instaura esta experiência da vida humana? Como se efetivam as boas condutas ao cabo de seu exercício? No trajeto destas análises descritivas, são apresentados três recortes fundamentais: 1- a promoção de hábitos higiênicos, responsáveis por tirar o lixo das ruas e levá-lo até as lixeiras domiciliares; 2- as diferentes personagens do lixo presentes na história da modernidade até culminar no catador de materiais recicláveis como um ator social da contemporaneidade; 3- as práticas e discursos socioambientais que almejam a salvação, não mais da alma do sujeito cristão, mas de uma única alma artificial pertencente à vida humana: a cidade. Nos processos de metamorfose das técnicas de governamentalidade, vê-se a metamorfose das substâncias consideradas como lixo, pois aquilo que se resumiu outrora em matérias pútridas e mefíticas, posteriormente, multiplica-se em objetos sintéticos, descartáveis e inúteis...

Abstract: The production of knowledge and practices on garbage management is configured, in this doctoral thesis, as an object of intervention in the field of the formation of human conduct to the governing of populations. Garbage, as unbearable experience of urban life that agglutinate putrid, worthless and of society waste materials, is reflected in the present study in the analysis of the forms of problematization about the conditions of existence of the modern subject. Thus: how do the practices of governmentality of conducts, resulting from urban population agglomerates in the relationship with their unbearable, especially with their waste, actualize? What are the effects of this tension between the experience of urban relations in modernity and putrescence, or, even, between the flow of cities and the accumulation of their waste? What technologies and procedures are presented as instruments of conducts organization? Within which parameters of acceptability this experience of human life is established? How do good conducts become effective at the end of their exercise? In the course of these descriptive analyzes, three basic clippings are presented: 1- the promotion of hygienic habits, responsible for taking out the trash from the streets and putting them in the household trash; 2- the different characters of garbage present in the history of modernity culminating in the collector of recyclable materials as a social actor of contemporaneity; 3- environmental social discourses and practices that aim the salvation, not of the soul of the Christian subject anymore, but of a single artificial soul belonging to human life: the city. In the process of updating the techniques of governmentality, one sees the metamorphosis of substances considered as garbage, because what once was outlined in putrid and mephitic materials, posteriorly, is multiplied in synthetic, disposable and useless...

The conduit loan is one of the greatest financial success stories of real estate finance in the 1990s. This paper examines the benefits and the costs of commercial real estate conduit loan, focusing on the relationship between borrowers and lenders. A conduit is a loan origination with the intent of securitization through its unbundled production by secialists, whereas traditional loan providers are essentially generalists who offer a bundle of financial services to borrowers. Although the conduit loan partially filled the gap left by the savings-and-loans by funding borrowers who had lower quality collateral until the S&L crisis of the end of the 1980's, it has since sprung up to add liquidity to the market by successful financial innovations. As a result of the quantitative analyses of the loan programs of both lenders, the conduit has provided its easy access and availability of loans, national presence and comprehensive programs, disclosure of historical performance, and larger amount, longer non-recourse programs as its benefits for borrowers. On the other hand, the conduit has compensated for its flexible and customized programs, close relationships with lenders and price stability which traditional whole lenders have offered. From the lenders' perspective, the conduit brings liquidation, information risk diversification, buy-buck option of tailored loans and efficiency from specialization in substitution for underutilization of value information, adverse selection problem, price stability, flexibility and underwriting expertise which traditional lenders have offered. In conclusion, while the conduit can sustain its growth and traditional lenders may keep their position, advance of information technology may contribute to further growth of the conduit loan due to its scale efficacy and reduction of information friction.

Texto completoElectric Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) that maximize energy efficiency can be considered an integrated approach to meet the various trends, mainly green and digital transition, in the automotive industry. Energy-saving strategies for CAVs on the vehicle level can be categorized into Eco-Routing (ER) and Eco-Driving (ED). With increased penetration of CAVs, such vehicles can cooperate rather than compete for right of way, giving rise to Cooperative Connected and Automated Vehicles (CCAVs). Based on the level of information shared and the motivation for energy efficiency, the behavior of CCAVs can be categorized into Non-Cooperative (NC), Cooperative (C), and Centralized Cooperative (CC) ED strategies. Each CCAV optimizes for itself in NC-ED and shares only its instantaneous states with its neighbors, while in C-ED, it shares its future intentions. Each CCAV's control action optimizes for the entire group in the CC-ED.The main objectives of this thesis are to experimentally assess a known baseline NC-ED strategy for a single CAV; to obtain analytical eco-driving solutions for a fleet of electric CCAVs, with varying levels of cooperation, for platooning and un-signalized intersection scenarios; and to evaluate the influence of the varying levels of cooperation, namely, NC-ED, C-ED, and CC-ED, on fleet energy consumption. The thesis first introduces a known NC-ED strategy for a single CAV that forms the basis for this thesis. ED is formulated as an optimal control problem for an unconstrained and car-following scenario and solved using Pontryagin's Minimum Principle (PMP). The baseline NC-ED car-following strategy predicts the lead vehicle's motion under Constant Acceleration (CA) to facilitate analytical closed-form solutions. In a chapter of this thesis, more sophisticated lead vehicle prediction models, namely Constant Acceleration-Average Braking (CA-AB) and EDM-LOS based Predictor (EDM-LOSP), are developed in the absence of V2V communication. The results distinguished the performance of the predictors in urban routes, where the ego vehicle using EDM-LOSP performed better than CA-AB with 4 % energy gain, while CA-AB had 4.5 % over the baseline CA. The baseline NC-ED car-following scenario is extended to a platooning ED scenario. An OCP is formulated for the three levels of cooperation, and analytical solutions are obtained using PMP. Platoons with the three cooperative strategies are evaluated against a baseline using Adaptive Cruise Control in a simulation environment. The results indicate higher energy saving with increased levels of cooperation. The CC-ED platoon performed best with 2.5 % energy saving over the NC-ED platoon on a WLTC High cycle. This thesis further presents an OCP formulated for a set of CCAVs safely crossing an un-signalized intersection while minimizing energy consumption. The OCP is formulated for two levels of cooperation: NC-ED and C-ED. The conflicts that arise in an intersection are analyzed and transformed into constraints. The OCP with the constraints is solved using PMP, and analytical solutions are presented. The two strategies are evaluated against Intelligent Driver Model (IDM) as a baseline for various flow rates. The results indicate that C-ED performs best, with 23.7 % energy gains over IDM. Finally, this thesis presents an experimental implementation of the baseline NC-ED strategy in a Renault Zoe electric car. The ED solutions are implemented via a tablet, that displays the computed optimal speed for the driver to follow in the next second. The implementation of the algorithm consists of two parts: an ED speed profile predicted at the trip's start under certain assumptions and an ED speed profile computed in real-time advising the driver. In this work, the driven profiles are analyzed a posteriori to study the impact of the assumptions made at the start of a trip. The results indicate the importance of having accurate information on traffic and traffic light behavior

To move the field closer to untangling the charter versus public school debate, this study compared leadership practices surrounding discipline and the frequency of student misconduct between public and charter schools that reside in urban neighborhoods and serve predominantly students of color. School leadership's approaches to discipline were investigated by comparing punitive authoritarian practices such as suspensions and transfers to therapeutic and educational strategies such as positive behavior management and teacher training. Student conduct was comprised of problematic peer-directed behaviors (e.g., bullying, sexual harassment, harassment of sexual orientation, and gang activity) and authority-directed misconduct (e.g., verbal abuse of teacher, acts of disrespect towards teacher, and classroom disorder). The sample used in this analysis was garnered from a larger nationally representative pool of public school principals (n = 610) from elementary, middle, high school, and combination schools across the United States who completed The School Survey of Crime and Safety (SSOCS) during the 2009-2010 academic school year. To uncover which leadership variables could account for significant differences in student conduct across school type (public or charter) several multivariate analyses were conducted using factorial analysis, MANCOVAs, and partial correlations. The results revealed that charter schools used more Educational Discipline while public schools used more Authoritarian Discipline and Therapeutic Discipline. In addition, public school principals reported a greater frequency of Peer-directed and Authority-directed student conduct compared to charter school principals. The relationships between certain discipline practices and student conduct types were found to be statistically significantly different between school type. Several points of policy are suggested for leadership and policy makers to consider with regard to urban school reform initiatives surrounding the establishment of a supportive school climate that positively affects student conduct.

This thesis addresses the question: under what conditions do corporate codes of conduct work? To answer this question, I develop two case studies of subcontracting factories that are subject to a multinational company's (MNC) code of conduct. These two factories have many similarities-both are in Mexico, both are in the apparel industry, and both produce for the same MNC. In addition, on the surface, they appear to have similar labor practices. They have comparable policies vis-à-vis their workers in terms of recruitment, promotion system, grievance system, and benefits. However, upon conducting fieldwork at the plants, I found that, despite similarities on paper, there are significantly differences in actual labor conditions. One factory complies with the code of conduct and the other does not. I argue that the code of conduct, and other similar policies, are "filtered" by the management, which results in different labor conditions. Four factors influence the way managers treat their workers and interact with the MNC external labor markets, product markets, cultural and language conditions inside the plants, and values of management. These factors influence the management style of the plants and their relationship with the MNC, which result in different implementation of the same policies, and, in turn, different labor conditions.

Texto completoIn the early twenty-first century, “sustainable housing” has become a popular catchword, and its goals are increasingly being embraced in the housing sector. This new context calls for analysing the interactions between housing and environment, especially insofar as they relate to the urban phenomenon and its evolutions. This PhD in sociology adopts an interdisciplinary social science perspective (branching out into urbanism, planning and ethnology) in its empirical examination of the construction of individual houses in the Alsace region of France, that take into consideration energy performance and the use so-called “ecological” materials, especially in peri-urban areas.The PhD pursued two main goals. First, based on a study of regional architects and builders, and in light of the evolution of legal frameworks and national real estate markets, it analyses the modalities of production of techno-centric “sustainable houses” that reflect the demands of environmental policies in terms of energy efficiency. Second, based on ethnographical approach and on the characterization of the trajectories of households, it looks into the experiences of residents, their appropriation of the “sustainable houses” and lifestyles. The PhD ultimately offers crosscutting insights into the impact of calls for energy sobriety and individual responsibility by reconsidering the “sustainable house” model and its effects on social and spatial inequalities

Texto completoThrough an analysis of the attitudes of Brazzaville's young citizens towards certain ethnic rules, supplemented by an analysis of different types of public behaviour, the study brings out a paradox : on one hand there is a significant recourse to ethnic solidarity, particularly in the domain of personal social mobility or in contexts of ethno-regional leadership appropriation; on the other, an increasingly widespread questioning of reference to the ethnic norm in determining individual attitudes and in social integration. The study then shows how this paradox has a negative influence on the processes of social change and development currently in progress in congolese society, making them "pervers". The importance of this influence led us to outline a cultural rather than a culturalist explanation of congolese social forces. In the course of this outline the author defines the concept of the cultural dimension of development

Texto completoThe Álvaro Chaves Penstock System (ACP) is the greater storm sewer device of Porto Alegre (Brazil), it was built between 2005 and 2008 and aims to overcome recurrent floods in main avenues located in a highly populated region of 2,8km2. The conception and design of ACP highlight some unusual aspects: the combination of an on-line detention reservoir and a penstock and the reduction of its rectangular cross-sectional area to downstream direction. Moreover, there are abrupt sharp edges contractions (horizontal and vertical), 90° bend with a reduction of rectangular cross-sectional and abrupt geometrical drop. In February 2013, the ACP became notorious because of its structural collapse during a rainstorm event. The precast concrete cover was displaced, soil was removed and the pavement descended. In order to investigate the ACP system, a partial physical model was built in the Instituto de Pesquisas Hidráulicas of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. The geometric scale factor is 1:15, resulting in a 30 m length, variable height (16cm - 42cm) and width (20cm - 50cm). The model reproduces the detention reservoir, its entrances and the short portion of the penstock located downstream of the detention reservoir. The experimental procedure is based is on the propagation of a hydrograph in the conduit. The experimental variables are affluent initial discharge, the overture settings of the downstream discharge valves (both variables affect initial water level in the conduct) and the opening periods of the upstream valves. The data generated during the tests are video images (general camera and high-speed camera) and discharge records. A comprehensive analysis of the images led the identification of tree basic patterns of pipe filling. Pattern A – Filling without air entrapment in quasi-steady state: observed during tests with most favorable drainage conditions, resulting in lower initial water levels in the conduct, given an initial discharge. This pattern represents situations where the Guaíba River level is lower, allowing better drainage capacity. Pattern B – Filling with air entrapment in quasi-steady state: established considering drainage conditions a little bit more restrictives than in Pattern A, resulting in higher initial levels in the conduct for the same affluent discharges. Situations of higher levels in the Guaiba River may be associated with this pattern. Pattern C – Filling with air entrapment in unsteady state: established under the most adverse drainage conditions, resulting in higher initial water level even for very low initial affluent discharges. This pattern represents the most extreme conditions tested, whether in relation to the associated levels of the Guaiba River and in relation to the severity of the observed effects. Furthermore, numerous phenomena and hydraulic instabilities were observed: transition between free surface and pressurized flow, moving hydraulic jumps, entrapment of air pockets, oscillatory waves and translational waves. In general, the ACP model allows the study of the flow in a storm sewer system under unsteady state, considering its singularities: bends, horizontal and vertical contraction without alignment and direction changes with reduction of the cross section sharp angles.

Texto completoDriving a truck is a complex professional activity that takes place in a dynamic and constant changing environment. It needs a specific learning and it is set in a strict regulated framework including French labour code (Code du travail) as road regulation. Strong spatio-temporal pressure should be added to those characteristics. These constraints entail to drivers the use of operative strategies to achieve the main objective of their activity: respect of delivery time in optimal conditions of safety, security and productivity.This thesis deals with the contribution of cognitive psychology to the design of driving assistance systems for trucks. Works are intended to integrate, from the design of new systems, the demands of human cognitive functioning in real situation and the needs and expectations of drivers so that adapted and usable technological solutions could be proposed to them.Applied part shows two major dimensions of truck driving activity: productivity through the issue of the eco-driving assistance (“Conduite Economique Assistée, ADEME- RENAULT TRUCKS” project) and safety through the issue of the assistance to detection and protection of vulnerable road users (“VIVRE2, ANR-PREDIT05-LUTB” project).From a scientific point of view, the thesis ends with a proposal of a model of human functioning in finalized activities, of which is added an adapted model of the truck driving activity. The analysis performed in real environment enhance knowledge, on the one hand, on the applied driving strategies to the eco-driving of a truck in extra-urban environment and, on the other hand, on the components of the activity of drivers doing deliveries in urban environment. Moreover, works performed in VIVRE2 project allowed to specify representations and risky behaviours of vulnerable users with relation to trucks in town.From an applicative and ergonomic point of view, works on driving dynamic simulator allowed the evaluation of an innovative man-machine interface which could be adapted to eco-driving and the proposal as well as the evaluation of assistance systems to guarantee safety of vulnerable users during low speed manoeuvres in urban environment

This study examined the effects of family structure on treatment outcomes among a sample of proportionately minority, urban adolescents exhibiting behavior problems (blacks, 56.2%; Latinos/Hispanics, 20.5%, whites, 16.4%; and other, 6.8%). Eighty-one families received Functional Family Treatment, which features evidence- and family-based, customized intervention, and they were assigned to a two (single-mother households, N = 50 and married-mother households, N =30), by two (pre-test/post-test) design. Adolescents completed measures on peer association, drug use, psychological distress, self-identified problem areas and family functioning. Mothers (all of whom were the biological mothers) reported their perception of family functioning. Results were analyzed using univariate repeated measures analysis of variance and t-tests. Findings indicated that the treatment was significantly effective in decreasing specific types of drug use and improving several domains of family functioning for adolescents from single-mother households. The treatment also significantly improved the single-mothers report on overall family functioning as well as in several critical domains. Implications for treatment interventions are discussed.

In the past decade, a spate of reports has surfaced about the substandard labor conditions in foreign-owned and operated factories located globally that manufacture goods for multinational brand firms. The response of companies under scrutiny for engaging in "sweatshop" practices has been to formulate corporate codes of conduct. The codes serve as sourcing guidelines for the firms and as a set of standards for labor and environmental practices for their subcontractors. This thesis presents an exploration into whether corporate codes of conduct are effective in improving factory conditions as well as workers' lives. I investigate the question with a case study of three footwear factories in southern China that manufacture for major multinational brand firms, using a qualitative approach based on interviews with factory managers, supervisors and workers. The findings suggest that brand firms play a vital role in ensuring code compliance, and that carving out a participatory role for workers determines the success of code enforcement strategies. I then propose that an active mode of engagement is more useful for corporations that seek to improve labor standards in China. The paper concludes with policy recommendations for strengthening the efficacy and role of codes of conduct.

De, Nunzio Giovanni. "Traffic eco-management in urban traffic networks". Thesis, Université Grenoble Alpes (ComUE), 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015GREAT064/document.
Texto completoThe problem of energy-aware traffic management in urban environment is addressed. Such traffic management aims at reducing vehicle stops, accelerations, energy consumption, and ultimately congestion. The eco-management in urban traffic networks may be divided in two broad categories: vehicle-side control and infrastructure-side control. Both control domains can feature isolated or coordinated characteristics, depending on the type of information used in the optimization.The vehicle-side traffic management influences each single vehicle according to its own characteristics and position. Isolated vehicle control aims primarily at optimizing the powertrain and/or the driving profile of the vehicles, possibly using information about the road characteristics, but without communicating with the other agents of the traffic network. Coordinated vehicle control makes use of communication among vehicles and with the infrastructure in order to achieve larger benefits in terms of energy consumption and traffic fluidity.The infrastructure-side management, on the other hand, influences traffic lights and road side panels in order to improve the performance of the traffic as a whole. Isolated infrastructure control regulates essentially the traffic lights at a single signalized intersection, or the speed limits in a single stretch of road, without taking into account the interactions with the neighboring junctions and/or road sections. Coordinated infrastructure control overcomes this limitation by using information about traffic conditions in other road sections to alleviate congestion.The contributions of this work to the energy-aware traffic management may be summarized as follows.Firstly, a solution for the coordinated vehicle control has been proposed, in which communication with the infrastructure is exploited to reduce energy consumption. In particular, the traffic lights timings are assumed to be communicated to the vehicle and known, and the vehicle is suggested an optimal speed to drive through a sequence of signalized intersections without stopping, while following a minimum-energy trajectory. The proposed strategy, independently applied to each vehicle, has been tested in a microscopic traffic simulator in order to assess the impact on the traffic performance. The analysis has demonstrated that the energy consumption and the number of stops can be drastically reduced without affecting the travel time.Then, a solution for the isolated infrastructure control has been proposed. A macroscopic urban traffic model has been introduced, and the variable speed limits have been used as actuation to improve traffic performance. In particular, the analysis has been carried out at saturated traffic conditions, with given and fixed traffic lights scheduling. The optimization aims at reducing the energy consumption in trade-off with the average travel time of the vehicles in the considered road section. Experiments have demonstrated that there exists an optimal speed limit that improves traffic performance and reduces the length of the queue at the traffic light.Lastly, a solution for the coordinated infrastructure control has been proposed. Traffic lights coordination on arterials has been proved to be effective in terms of traffic delay reduction. Our analysis has demonstrated that an optimization problem can be cast to take into account also energetic aspects. Extensive experiments in a microscopic traffic simulator have showed that a correlation exists between traffic progression and traffic performance indexes, such as energy consumption, travel time, idling time, and number of stops. The proposed control strategy has showed that a significant reduction of energy consumption can be achieved, almost completely eliminating number of stops and idling time, without affecting the travel time

Texto completoEn las últimas dos décadas, la estructura urbano-regional de México ha sufrido enormes transformaciones socio territoriales que están modificando rápidamente las actividades productivas, los empleos, las relaciones sociales, y en especial las formas culturales y de vida de miles de personas de escasos recursos, cuyo hábitat natural se ha trastocado de manera radical por un acelerado proceso de urbanización del campo. En general, se trata de regiones o territorios dinámicos, con crecimiento de nuevas actividades industriales y de servicios vinculados a cadenas productivas globalizadas, cuya localización se viene dando mediante una creciente expansión urbana de las ciudades sobre sus territorios o periferias, dando como resultado un proceso de metropolización (Gobierno de México, 2015). En la actualidad dicho fenómeno metropolitano ha traído consigo múltiples desafíos entre los que se encuentran carencia de servicios e infraestructura, pobreza, segregación espacial, abastecimiento inequitativo de servicios y servicios de movilidad ineficiente (Gobierno de México, 2015). Dentro de este contexto se encuentra el municipio de Metepec, el cual pertenece a la Zona metropolitana de Toluca (ZMT) y ha fungido como pieza fundamental en el proceso de metropolización de esta zona al destinar gran parte de su suelo agrícola al desarrollo de actividades terciarias (Aguilera y Corral, 1992). En esta municipio hace algunos años predominaban las actividades primarias propias de ámbitos rurales, pero con la inserción creciente de empresas del sector secundario y terciario vinculadas a procesos de internacionalización del capital, se está generando una significativa reestructuración territorial que propicia nuevos vínculos socio territoriales y nuevas desigualdades, que se ven reflejadas en la existencia de localidades que poseen más equipamiento e infraestructura, y localidades que se encuentran en pobreza y marginación. Cabe mencionar que esta nueva configuración es posible por el desarrollo de la infraestructura y los sistemas de transporte, que articulan un ámbito territorial cada vez más extenso y complejo, sin embargo, debido a diversas problemáticas esta articulación entre localidades no funciona de manera óptima, provocando exclusión y falta de conectividad dentro del municipio.

Texto completoThe main ideas of this thesis come from realities in China. The main objective ofthis thesis is trying to offer some suggestions for cities in China by learning fromFrance, on the topic of planning and implementation of large-scale urbandevelopment projects. Understanding the background, mechanism and policy ofurban planning in developed countries may help to cope with problems in ourcountry and then to better construct Chinese cities. Firstly, the dissertation defines the basic concepts, contents and framework of large-scale urban development projects. The origin of problems and difficulties in large-scale urban development projects is then discussed. Based on empirical study, the dissertation analyzes some typical large-scale urban development projects in France and then evaluates them. In modern society, planners should consider many uncertain indicators in urban development. They should also be effective in regulation of space and coordinate conflict of interests in large-scale urban development. The dissertation raises a basic theoritical framework in those three aspects and explores how French largescale urban development projects cope with these challenges. By three optimizing routes which are reforming of land-use planning, strengthen regulation of urban space and improvement of coordination mechanism, the planning and implementation of large-scale urban development project in France have been optimized. By continuous reforming, adjustment and improvement, many French large-scale urban development projects successfully finished the planning objectives. The social, economic and environment effects have also been well embodied.PLU (Plans Locaux d’Urbanisme) has been studied for the reform of land-use planning. Le "cahier des charges "and the role of the "Architect Coordinateur" have been analyzed for the regulation of urban space. ZAC (Zone d’Aménagement Concerte), SEM (Société d’Ecoonomie Mixte) and public participation institution have been studied in aspect of coordination institution. Based on comparativestudy of situation in China and successful experience in France, suggestionshave been made for optimizing Chinese large-scale urban development projects.The three optimizing routes are connected tightly, which means they influencethe course of urban construction together. Isolated route could not solve theproblems. Therefore, the dissertation suggests an ensemble optimizing route inChinese large-scale urban development projects. The reform of urban planningand implementation institution should improve land-use planning, regulation ofurban space and coordination mechanism all together.

Texto completoThis research aims to analyze the meaning and the sense that "recidivists" in Measure Socioeducative of deprivation of liberty paranaenses give to the recidivism and the manner in which they relapsed. This is a qualitative and quantitative, exploratory and descriptive approach, operationalized through the bibliographical and documentary research and through the semi-structured interview. The theoretical and methodological, empirical and documentary guidance that illuminates the logical procedures followed is the hermeneutics-dialectics. The research describes and contextualizes the main legal-normative and theoretical-practical instruments that currently regulates and inform, in the State of Paraná, the type of state intervention consubstantiated in institutions, policies, professional practices and specialized agents that comprise the Socioeducative System of the State of Paraná, pointing out conservation of a institutional and material structure of the penal modernity, hidden from the perspective of a "universal childhood" and operated by an alleged "politicalinstitutional reorganization" which extended the use of imprisonment as an a institutional response to the juvenile violence and crime, starting, first, of the idea of "resocialization" and, then of the ideas of "prevention" and management of "risk factors". The results indicate a criminal selectivity focused on race distinction and on class distinction, where the "recidivists" on Measure Socioeducative of deprivation of liberty represent 17.5% of adolescents in "fulfillment" of that same Measure Socioeducative. It is young (92.7% between 16 and 18 years) non-whites (61.8%), male (98.2%), with low education (74.5% in Phase II of the Elementary School ), excluded from the labor market (81%), from dispossessed families (49% receive between 1 and 2 minimum wages) and of precarious areas of large urban centers (80%). The "nature" of the infractions attributed to the "recidivists" confirms the predominance of a "street criminality" (76.3%) highlighting the illegal acts typified as crimes against property (robbery: 41.2%) and against public safety (drug trafficking: 21.4%). The so-called "violent crimes" (crimes against persons) equals to 13.4% of all infractions attributed to the "recidivists". The research shows that deprivation of freedom prevents access of individuals to the socialization processes, belonging, recognition and otherness necessary for their emancipation. Privileging the interview with "key informants" and the constitution of their trajectories and life experiences (both in relation to the institutions and social organizations and with the institutions of deprivation of liberty), the research confirms that the deprivation of liberty, besides withdraw the subject of the your circles of relationships and of the your symbolic exchanges systems, preventing their full development, reproduces social injustices and stigmatization, causing suffering unnecessary, alienation, control, segregation and neutralization.

This dissertation is the final of a research that had as conjecture the necessity of research of social practices and dynamics of youth in the urban periphery. From the fact that there is a polyphony of meanings to youth generation, the objective was relate the many ways of to be young and the experience of live in the periphery. The central question of research was what place the periphery´s life has as source of life experiences ? The method of research was the ethnographic, observing the ways of interation of youngs, their practices, values, relationships and representations of themselves and the otherness. The field research was the Parque São João, a neighborhood situated in the periphery of Paranaguá city, Paraná state, Brazil. The fieldwork was made in two phases: the first last almost one month and had the aim of to develop the research project. The second phase last three months and made an observation of the young people in their daily social interaction, mostly in a corner of the neighborhood. The results achieved by the crossing between the concepts of youth and periphery , and related with social experience , did show that the young people create relations with many symbols and meanings, thinking about the ways of live in the neighborhood, that was seen either as a place of bad people and as a our place . It is important also the necessity of playing os social stigma of to be a poor young living in the periphery, which produces a dual sight of world, marked by pairs of opposition as rich versus poor , playboy versus vida loca , periphery versus core. So, in this dynamic context, the young people build their identities , being important the presence of local context. The presence of drugs also appeared, as source of experiences to young people. The drugs universe creates the group hierarchy and the male ethos, related to the native concept of vida loca . At last, it were used the categories as cenário , pedaço , mancha and circuito , developed by Magnami (2005) and it was possible demonstrate, by ethnography of a leisure night, that the young people make few movement by the city, standing in their neighborhood leisure spaces. However, the local context do not prevent that the young people to live the otherness experience, what occurs when they go to a gas station around the neighborhood and when they consume famous fashion clothes.
Essa dissertação é o resultado final de uma pesquisa que teve como pressuposto a necessidade de investigar as dinâmicas e práticas sociais de jovens no contexto de uma periferia urbana. Compreendendo que existe uma polifonia de sentidos para o tempo da juventude, a proposta foi relacionar os vários modos de ser jovem aos desdobramentos decorrentes da experiência de viver na periferia. A pergunta norteadora do trabalho foi: que lugar o viver na periferia ocupa como gerador de experiências de vida? . O método pelo qual se buscou essa resposta foi o etnográfico, enfocando os modos de interação dos jovens, suas práticas e valores, relações com o mundo e representações de si e do outro. O campo empírico da pesquisa foi o Parque São João, bairro localizado na periferia da cidade de Paranaguá, Paraná. O trabalho de campo foi realizado em duas etapas, sendo que a primeira, de caráter exploratório, durou aproximadamente um mês e teve o objetivo de lapidar um pré-projeto de pesquisa. A segunda de caráter definitivo se estendeu por três meses e buscou acompanhar os jovens em suas interações sociais cotidianas estabelecidas, inicialmente, no espaço da esquina do bairro. Os resultados obtidos através do relacionamento entre os conceitos de juventude e periferia, atravessados pela noção de experiência social, demonstraram que os jovens do grupo desenvolvem relações ricas em símbolos e significados, iniciando com a identificação de uma discursividade marcante sobre os modos de vida no bairro, que ora é visto como lugar de gente ruim , ora como nossa vila . Destaca-se ainda a necessidade de gerenciamento do estigma social de ser jovem pobre e morador de bairro periférico, produzindo um olhar dicotômico de mundo orientado por pares de oposição como rico versus pobre; playboy versus vida loca ; periferia versus centro. Dentro desse dinamismo os jovens constroem suas identidades sendo marcante a presença do pertencimento local, somos da vila . A presença do elemento drogas também surgiu com força orientando e gerando experiências de vida entre os jovens. O envolvimento ou não com o tráfico estabelece a hierarquia dentro do grupo e o ethos masculino, consubstanciado na noção de vida loca . Por fim, foram operacionalizadas as categorias cenário, pedaço, mancha e circuito desenvolvidas por Magnani (2005) sendo possível demonstrar, por meio da etnografia de uma noite de curtição , que os jovens pouco circulam pela cidade, mantendo-se restritos ao lazer ofertado nos espaços da periferia. Porém, o pertencimento local não impede os jovens de fazerem a experiência da diferença, que aparece quando frequentam o posto de gasolina nas imediações da vila e quando se dedicam ao consumo de roupas de marcas famosas.
