1. CONTENDING DISCOURSES OF BLACK AUTOBIOGRAPHY: RESPECTABILITY, AUTHENTICITY, AND MASCULINITY
Summary After historicizing the politics of racial representation in the slave narrative, this article considers how race, gender, and class intersect historically in the autobiographical production of Black men in the United States. At the dawn of the Jim Crow era, Black autobiography conformed to a cultural politics of racial synecdoche, which avowed that

2. Discrete element modeling of non-spherical particles using a spherical shape
Abstract Real non-spherical particles can be modeled using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) with sphere clusters, superquadrics, or polyhedral particles. However, in applications involving a considerable number of particles, the analysis can become impracticable. The goal of this study is to demonstrate how well spherical particles can reproduce the flow of

3. A novel transition identification mechanism for the diesel blending and distribution scheduling problem using the discrete time representation with two time-scales granularity
ABSTRACT Transitions between tasks arise in many different scheduling problems. Sometimes transitions are undesired because they incur costs; sometimes they are undesired because they require setup time, and sometimes both. In one way or the other, frequently, transitions need to be identified and penalized in order for their frequency to be minimized. The p

4. Pulmonary crackle characterization: approaches in the use of discrete wavelet transform regarding border effect, mother-wavelet selection, and subband reduction
Introduction Crackles are discontinuous, non-stationary respiratory sounds and can be characterized by their duration and frequency. In the literature, many techniques of filtering, feature extraction, and classification were presented. Although the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is a well-known tool in this area, issues like signal border extension, moth

5. Biologia reprodutiva de rainhas e machos de Tetragonisca angustula (Hymenoptera: Meliponini) / Reproductive biology of the queens and males of Tetragonisca angustula (Hymenoptera: Meliponini)
The stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini)present a haplodiploid sex determination system with complementary sex determination in a single locus. Such a system is a large genetic load for the group and thus the genetic diversity of male\ s aggregations near the nests is essential to minimize the chances of inbreeding. The interactions among the stingless b

6. Spline Dynamic Matrix Controller : uma nova formulação de controladores preditivos lineares
In the field of dynamic simulation, an understanding of the dynamic behavior of chemical processes is important from both process design and process system perspectives. Several methodologies have been developed so far, such as Step Response (SR), Transfer Function (TF) and Discrete State Space representation (DSS). Such approaches, however, have some disadv

7. Estabilidade e estabilização de uma classe de sistemas não-lineares sujeitos a saturação
This work addresses the problem of stability analysis and stabilization of nonlinear rational systems subject to saturation. The approach used in this study is based on the differential algebraic representation (DAR) of rational systems and on a modified version of the generalized sector condition to deal with saturation. First, methods to characterize the s

8. Modelagem de ondas ultrassônicas refletidas por superfícies de geometrias diversas. / Modeling for ultrasonics waves of reflected surfaces of various geometries.
Neste trabalho são analisados os campos acústicos gerados por transdutores ultrassônicos planos e circulares, do tipo pistão plano, no modo pulso-eco, trabalhando como emissor e receptor de ondas, com freqüências de 1,6 MHz, 2,25 MHz e 5 MHz. As ondas emitidas por esses transdutores interagem com interfaces denominadas alvos, com diversas geometrias de

9. Acoustic beam modeling of ultrasonic transducers and arrays using the impulse response and the discrete representation methods
The impulse response of the velocity potential and the discrete representation methods were used in order to model the acoustic field radiated by ultrasonic transducers and arrays. The first method deals with the calculation of the exact impulse response, in which solutions are possible only for simple geometries, such as the circular piston. The second meth

10. Polyhedral regions of local stability for linear discrete-time systems with saturating controls
The study and the determination of polyhedral regions of local stability for linear systems subject to control saturation is addressed. The analysis of the nonlinear behavior of the closed-loop saturated system is made by dividing the state space in regions of saturation. Inside each of these regions, the system evolution can be represented by a linear syste

11. Área e discretude de representações / Area and discreteness of representations
Primeiramente, apresentamos uma introdução à geometria hiperbólica plana que pode ser útil, inclusive, para um principiante. A seguir, utilizando o conceito de "terremoto simples", descrevemos explicitamente, em termos de algumas coordenadas naturais, o espaço de Teichmüller T Hn de superfícies hiperelípticas. Esta descrição resulta simples: T Hn

12. Métodos de reamostragem de séries temporais baseados em wavelets. / Resampling methods for time series based on wavelets.
This paper reviews resampling methods based on wavelets as an alternative to the classic approaches which are, made in the time and frequency domains. These methods, known in the literature as wavestrap and wavestrapping, make use, respectively, of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and of the discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT). Since only few result
