DESIGN +: Design para a multiplicidade

O livro apresenta uma proposta de integração de diferentes áreas com contribuições mútuas através da reunião de conteúdos do grupo de pesquisa do CNPQ “Design+: Design para a multiplicidade”, relacionados às linhas de pesquisa de “design da informação em educação e saúde”; “Propriedade intelectual e Inovação”; e “Acessibilidade e projetos/processos multidisciplinares”. Objetiva investigar conexões do design com outras áreas do conhecimento, integrando academia e sociedade através das contribuições sociais possibilitadas através desses vínculos. Este livro apresenta relações entre o design e as áreas da saúde e do direito com discussões sobre as principais temáticas e atuações de cada área, com autores que embasam a discussão, bem como a integração de tais áreas e sua relevância para a pesquisa em design.

This book is about the more than 4,000 beach systems that form most of the 9000 km long Brazilian coast. It focuses on the beaches of each of the seventeen coastal states and three oceanic islands, their nature, morphodynamics and status. It is a must for anyone who wants to know more about this great coast and its beach systems. This is the first book ever written about the beach systems of Brazil, and actually the very first about the beaches of an entire country. The Brazilian coast extends from the mighty Amazon River and its muddy shores in the north to one of the world’s longest sandy beaches in the southern Rio Grande do Sul. It contains every beach type from wave to tide-dominated which range in size from small embayed beaches to long barrier beaches. The book is written by leading Brazilian academics and researchers and aims at the university level market, as well as coastal scientists, engineers and managers. Standard scientific terminology is used to describe the coast and its beaches. It is illustrated with more than 400 original figures and serves as a benchmark text on the Brazilian coast.

Nanoscience and Engineering in Superconductivity

For emerging energy saving technologies superconducting materials with superior performance are needed. Such materials can be developed by manipulating the "elementary building blocks" through nanostructuring. For superconductivity the "elementary blocks" are Cooper pair and fluxon (vortex). This book presents new ways how to modify superconductivity and vortex matter through nanostructuring and the use of nanoscale magnetic templates. The basic nano-effects, vortex and vortex-antivortex patterns, vortex dynamics, Josephson phenomena, critical currents, and interplay between superconductivity and ferromagnetism at the nanoscale are discussed. Potential applications of nanostructured superconductors are also presented in the book.

Smart Systems

This book aims to highlight the strength and state-of-art of some techniques and methods applied to intelligent systems. Rather to cover the variety of techniques and methods available in the literature, which is out of scope of this book, it focuses on those consolidated and applied and on those with high potential of implementation to smart systems. This book has fourteen chapters covering abroad range of topics in communications. The first three chapters are devoted to state-of-art and review papers on planar filters, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), negative group delay, nanoclusters, and tunable lights, while the remain chapters cover specific topics such as smart monitoring, V2I, high-speed links, RF and Optical sensors, composite material, metamaterial, energy harvesting, radar, SWIPT, and electromagnetic sources.

Solid waste is a major urban challenge worldwide and decisions over which technologies or methods to apply can have beneficial or detrimental long-term consequences. Inappropriate management of solid waste can lead to damaging environmental impacts, particularly in the megacities of the Global South. Urban Recycling Cooperatives explores the multiple narratives and interdisciplinary nature of waste studies, drawing attention to the pressing social, economic and environmental challenges related to waste management. The book asks questions such as: how do we define waste and our relation to it; who is involved in dealing with waste; and what power interactions become manifest over issues of ac...

Sneakers

This is the first academic study of sneakers and the subculture that surrounds them. Since the 1980s, American sneaker enthusiasts, popularly known as “sneakerheads” or “sneakerholics”, have created a distinctive identity for themselves, while sneaker manufacturers such as Reebok, Puma and Nike have become global fashion brands. How have sneakers come to gain this status and what makes them fashionable? In what ways are sneaker subcultures bound up with gender identity and why are sneakerholics mostly young men? Based on the author's own ethnographic fieldwork in New York, where sneaker subculture is said to have originated, this unique study traces the transformation of sneakers from sportswear to fashion symbol. Sneakers explores the obsessions and idiosyncrasies surrounding the sneaker phenomenon, from competitive subcultures to sneaker painting and artwork. It is a valuable contribution to the growing study of footwear in fashion studies and will appeal to students of fashion theory, gender studies, sociology, and popular culture.

El Mercosur como proceso muldimensional

Com o golpe parlamentar no Paraguai (2012) e a consequente assunção de governos neoliberais em termos econômicos e conservadores em termos políticos e sociais, como os governos de Mauricio Macri na Argentina (2015-2019) e Michel Temer (2016-2018) no Brasil, passaram a predominar novas tendências no processo de integração regional do MERCOSUL. Essas características foram ampliadas com a posse presidencial de Mario Abdo Benítez (2018-2023) no Paraguai, Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022) no Brasil e Luis Lacalle Pou (2020-atual) no Uruguai. Isso levou a uma virada neoliberal no MERCOSUL e a um retorno às diretrizes do regionalismo aberto. Este livro apresenta, desde uma perspectiva interdisci...

Estudos e práticas em enfermagem

A construção de um sistema de saúde público e universal no Brasil tem sido marcada por avanços e desafios, que perduram desde a sua criação, no início da década de 1990. Além do subfinanciamento crônico presente até os dias atuais, o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) brasileiro enfrenta ainda, diversos desafios para sua consolidação, sendo alguns longe de serem superados. Dentre eles, faz-se oportuno destacar o cenário constante de disputas político-ideológicas, caracterizado pelo acelerado processo de desmonte das políticas públicas, financeirização da saúde, e a retirada de direitos sociais conquistados arduamente pela classe trabalhadora. A obra foi organizada trazendo ...
