Esta obra fundamenta-se num estudo da trajetória, do cotidiano e das relações da elite santista que habitava os palacetes do final do século XIX e início do século XX. Período em que a cidade de Santos centrava suas ações no porto, tendo no comércio exportador de café sua principal atividade. As fontes de pesquisa proporcionam a possibilidade de um diálogo constante entre a bibliografia e a iconografia, bastante usadas nos dois primeiros capítulos do livro, nos quais são analisadas as transformações da malha urbana, do porto e da arquitetura de Santos. Em relação à análise de documentos iconográficos, o estudo das edificações remanescentes, in loco, possibilitou uma investigação mais próxima do objeto trabalhado. Já a fonte oral, entrevistas com pessoas ligadas ou descendentes das elites santistas – grupo de comissários de café, construtores e corretores – e um acervo de imagens permitiram examinar o modo de viver das famílias, trabalhadas no terceiro capítulo.
This book examines Zeolites and Metal-Organic Frameworks. It explains the different synthetic routes available to prepare these materials, and examines how they are used by science and industry.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th IFIP WG 5.5/SOCOLNET Advanced Doctoral Conference on Computing, Electrical and Industrial Systems, DoCEIS 2021, held in Costa de Caparica, Portugal, in July 2021.* The 34 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions. The papers present selected results produced in engineering doctoral programs and focus on technological innovation for industry and service systems. Research results and ongoing work are presented, illustrated and discussed in the following areas: collaborative networks; smart manufacturing; cyber-physical systems and digital twins; intelligent decision making; smart energy management; communications and electronics; classification systems; smart healthcare systems; and medical devices. *The conference was held virtually.

Though it is highly preventable, tooth decay is a common chronic disease both in the United States and worldwide. Evidence shows that decay and other oral diseases may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. However, individuals and many health care professionals remain unaware of the risk factors and preventive approaches for many oral diseases. They do not fully appreciate how oral health affects overall health and well-being. In Advancing Oral Health in America, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) highlights the vital role that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) can play in improving oral health and oral health c...
This book presents the proceedings of the IUPESM World Congress on Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics, a tri-annual high-level policy meeting dedicated exclusively to furthering the role of biomedical engineering and medical physics in medicine. The book offers papers about emerging issues related to the development and sustainability of the role and impact of medical physicists and biomedical engineers in medicine and healthcare. It provides a unique and important forum to secure a coordinated, multileveled global response to the need, demand, and importance of creating and supporting strong academic and clinical teams of biomedical engineers and medical physicists for the benefit of human health.
Architecture of Brazil: 1900-1990 examines the processes that underpin modern Brazilian architecture under various influences and characterizes different understandings of modernity, evident in the chapter topics of this book. Accordingly, the author does not give overall preference to particular architects nor works, with the exception of a few specific works and architects, including Warchavchik, Niemeyer, Lucio Costa, and Vilanova Artigas.
