A assistência estudantil nos Institutos Federais de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia by Talita Prada, Mônya Carla da Costa Surdine

“…Nas considerações finais, indicamos como e por que os recursos do programa não contemplam o atendimento universal aos estudantes, que a dualidade do programa separa os pobres dos não pobres, focalizando o atendimento aos mínimos sociais de forma individualizada àqueles que mais necessitam, tornando a disputa interna entre os estudantes acirrada e fragmentando suas lutas sociais. …”

An RGB-D-Based Cross-Field of View Pose Estimation System for a Free Flight Target in a Wind Tunnel by Sheng Liu, Yuan Feng, Kang Shen, Yangqing Wang, Shengyong Chen

“…Based on all the input multimodal information, a so-called cross-FOV model is proposed to recognize the dominating sensor and accurately extract the foreground region in an automatic manner. Second, we develop an RGB-D-based pose estimation method for a single target, by which the 3D sparse points and the pose of the target can be simultaneously obtained in real time. …”

Probabilistic Trust Evaluation with Inaccurate Reputation Reports by Bin Liu, Geng Yang

“…To this end, we develop techniques to take account of inaccurate reputations in modeling the behaviors of the trustee based on the Bayesian formalism. The core of the techniques is a proposed notion, termed Advisor-to-Truster relevance measure, based on which the incorrect reputation reports are rectified for use in the trust evaluation process. …”

Study on Reduction of Water Fins in the Middle Pier of the Spillway of Miaotang Reservoir by FU Xuhui, LIU Zhiqing, GONG Ao, LUO Yuanyuan, DIAO Yunchuan, HU Guangping

“…The water fin phenomenon is a common hydraulic phenomenon behind the piers in the gate chambers of discharge structures such as spillways and spillway tunnels.Considering the serious water fin phenomenon at the tail of the middle pier of the spillway of Miaotang Reservoir,a model test with a scale of 1:30 is used to compare and study the three types of middle piers.The results reveal that the water flow of two holes meets and collides behind the elliptical middle pier of Type 1 to form a large-scale water fin.The middle pier of Type 2 has a limited effect in reducing the water fins at the tail of the pier in the spillway,and strong collision still occurs behind the pier.The front and rear ends of the tail middle pier of Type 3 are connected by streamlined curves to ensure that the water flows smoothly along the streamlined surface of the tail pier,and thus sudden changes in flow speed can be avoided to effectively reduce the scale of the water fin.In this way,the discharge flow is smooth,and the discharge flow pattern is significantly improved.The research results can provide a reference for similar engineering.…”
