princípios de administração ao fundar o Centro de Estudos Administrativos.

(MAXIMIANO, 2010, p. 71). A Administração, portanto, segundo Maximiano (2010) seria: Distinta das demais funções da empresa, como finanças, produção e distribuição. A administração compreende cinco…

machines, embedded in cellular space, whose computational power is equivalent to that of a universal Turing machine. This is carried out in the context of 2-dimensional, 2-state, 5-neighbor cellular space, that is not computation universal in the uniform case. We show that nonuniform CAs can attain universal computation using systems that are simpler than previous ones and are quasi-uniform, meaning that the number of distinct rules is extremely small with respect to rule-space size,…

chairman of the ASME Board of Editors and of the Publications Committee. He is a Fellow of ASME and in 1991 received the ASME Fluids Engineering Award. He lives with his wife, Jeanne, in Narragansett, Rhode Island. v To Jeanne Preface General Approach The fourth edition of this textbook sees some additions and deletions but no philosophical change. The basic outline of eleven chapters and five appendices remains the same. The triad of integral, differential, and…

described by an effective permittivity tensor (and, when necessary, an effective permeability as well). This naturally points to the question of how anisotropy influences the near-field heat transfer. In this work, we address this question in the particular case of two semi-infinite uniaxial media characterized by optical axes orthogonally oriented with respect to the surface of interaction. The paper is organized as follows: In Sec. II we derive the expression for the heat flux between two…

*Mobility and Land Use, *Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Productive Urban Landscape and *Water Management. Finally, critical success factors for sustainable urban development were abstracted from the analyses of the five cities and four cases. Additional research and discussion sessions led to the identification of sustainability challenges of Almere and the indication of possibilities for application of state of the art approaches in Almere and other Dutch cities. 1.3…
