Do ponto de vista conceitual e metodológico, a pesquisa se insere num Projeto Temático desenvolvido pelo LUME ¿ Núcleo Interdisciplinar de Pesquisas Teatrais ¿ UNICAMP sob a coordenação do Prof. Dr. Renato Ferracini e Profa. Dra. Suzi Frankl Sperber, chamado Memória(s) e pequenas percepções. Em sua articulação vertical e estreita com o projeto temático, essa cartografia trabalha o conceito de invisibilidade e sua relação intrínseca com processos práticos de criação artística. A pergunta e pressuposto básico dessa cartografia é tentar problematizar este conceito de invisibilidade, derivada aos conceitos chaves do temático: memória e micropercepção. Em nosso desenho, o conceito de invisibilidade tem nos conceitos de Corpo Vibrátil (Suely Rolnik); Virtual (Pierre Lévy e Gilles Deleuze), Zona de Turbulência e Corpo-Subjétil (Renato Ferracini) a potência inicial de trabalho. Este primeiro traçado conceitual levou a cartografia ao conceito de Espelhamento de Forças (José Gil) e a Teoria do Afetos (Espinosa). Tal problematização se desenha atravessada pelo processo de criação e apresentações do Projeto Hotel Medea através de suas Residências Artísticas (entre 2007 e 2012). Uma cartografia da jornada vivenciada como artista integrante de tal projeto, pontuado por uma abordagem que deriva entre alguns paradoxos das experiências limítrofes a ele atrelados. A abordagem processual e intensiva do Projeto Hotel Medea articula, assim, do ponto de vista prático, os conceitos e questões desta pesquisa de doutorado: a invisibilidade experimentada como uma potência, força ou campo de vibração agenciadora de ações que possam sustentar a presença/organicidade do corpo dos atores/performers / Abstract: This cartographic research aims to realize an aesthetic and conceptual research on the relationship between visibility and invisibility in the creative process of the body in art. Conceptually and methodologically, the research is part of a Thematic Project developed by LUME - Interdisciplinary Center for Theatrical Research - UNICAMP, under the coordination of Prof. Dr. Renato Ferracini and Dr. Frankl Suzi Sperber, called Memória(s) e pequenas percepções. In its vertical and close coordination with the Thematic Project, this cartography works with the concept of invisibility and its intrinsic relationship to practical processes of artistic creation. The question and basic assumption of this cartography is trying to problematize this concept of invisibility, derivative to key concepts of the Thematic Project: Memory and Microperception. In our drawing, the concept of invisibility has the concepts of Vibrating Body (Suely Rolnik ); Virtual (Pierre Lévy and Gilles Deleuze), Turbulence Zone and Subjétil Body (Renato Ferracini ) within the initial power of the work. This first conceptual route led the cartografy to the concept of Mirroring of Forces (José Gil) and the Theory of Affections (Espinosa). Such questioning has been drawn from and traversed by the creation process and presentation of the Hotel Medea Project through its Artist Residency process (between 2007 and 2012). A cartography of the journey experienced as a member of Hotel Medea, punctuated by an approach that drifts between some paradoxes of borderline experiences linked to that Project. So, the processual and intensive approach of the Hotel Medea Project articulates from a practical point of view the concepts and questions of this doctoral research: the invisibility experienced as a power, force or field vibration of actions that can sustain the presence/organicity of the body of the actors/performers / Doutorado / Teatro, Dança e Performance / Doutor em Artes da Cena

[pt] Este trabalho visa refletir sobre Arquitetura e lugar: os rumos da arquitetura de Álvaro Siza, arquitetura essa topológica e atenta ao contexto, às preexistências, à concretude, à história, à cultura, às questões socioculturais, que reverbera noções de tempo, fragmento, memória, experiência e lugar. Tal reflexão será elaborada tomando como foco de análise o projeto da Fundação Iberê Camargo (Porto Alegre, 1998-2008). Uma vez que em Siza não há um conceito prévio de lugar, mas um caso a caso que envolve múltiplas relações e dimensões, colocaremos a seguinte inquietação: como o arquiteto Álvaro Siza realiza a questão do lugar no projeto da Fundação? Para isso, trazemos a cartografia como modo de abordagem, utilizando a como possível ferramenta de percepção das relações que o arquiteto estabelece para criar um lugar, e, assim, percorrer a poética do arquiteto no projeto da Fundação. / [en] This work aims to reflect on Architecture and place: the paths of Álvaro Siza s architecture, architecture that is topological and attentive to context, pre-existence, concreteness, history, culture, socio-cultural issues, which reverberates notions of time, fragment, memory, experience and place. This reflection will be elaborated taking the Iberê Camargo Foundation project (Porto Alegre, 1998-2008) as the focus of analysis. Since in Siza there is no prior concept of place, but a case by case that involves multiple relationships and dimensions, we will pose the following concern: how does architect Álvaro Siza carry out the question of place in the Foundation s project? For this, we bring cartography as a way of approaching, using it as a possible tool for perceiving the relationships that the architect establishes to create a place, and, thus, go through the poetics of the architect in the Foundation s project.

La maladie de la Sharka est due à un virus de quarantaine, le Plum Pox Virus (PPV), infectant les arbres fruitiers du genre Prunus. Il est nécessaire de trouver des moyens de lutte, telle que la sélection de plantes résistantes. Or chez ces espèces, les sources de résistance sont à l’heure actuelle en nombre limité, voire inexistantes. Il a été montré, au laboratoire, que ce virus est capable d’infecter Arabidopsis thaliana et qu’il existe chez cette espèce une grande diversité de réponse à l’infection. En effet nous avons pu observer que les accessions St-0 et JEA avais un comportement résistant, alors que l'accession Cvi-1 été partiellement résistante. Deux méthodes d’inoculation ont été comparées: une inoculation mécanique à partir de feuilles de Nicotiana benthamiana inoculées avec pICPPVnkGFP et une inoculation par agro-infection à partir d’une souche Agrobacterium tumesfasciens contenant l’isolat viral pBINPPVnkGFP. L'emploi de ces deux méthodes d'inoculation nous a permis de mettre en évidence une variabilité de la réponse au PPV en fonction de la méthode utilisée. En conséquence, cette étude visait donc à identifier le ou les facteur(s) de la plante hôte impliqué(s) dans l'infection virale. L'agro-infection de populations recombinantes (F2 et RIL), de lignées multi-parentales ainsi que l'emploi de la génétique d'association a mis en évidence chez St-0 ainsi que dans plusieurs accession distinct (sept) un locus majeur sur le groupe de liaison 3, appelé sha3. Il apparait indispensable dans le mouvement longue distance du PPV. De plus l'utilisation de la génétique d'association a permis d'initier la cartographie fine de sha3 et de réduire considérablement le nombre de gènes candidats. Un criblage de mutants a été initié afin de déterminer le ou les gènes candidats contrôlant le phénotype Sha3. Après inoculation mécanique, l’analyse d'une population recombinante a mis en évidence la présence d’un locus majeur, distinct de sha3 et positionné au milieu du bras long du groupe de liaison 1. Ce locus co-localise avec rpv1, locus identifié précédemment dans la descendance Cvi x Ler (Sicard, Loudet et al. 2008). Ce même locus a été également confirmé à la fois dans une population multi-parentale et par une approche de génétique d'association. Un gène candidat est actuellement en cours de validation au laboratoire. Une étude visant à décomposer le mécanisme de résistance porté par l’accession JEA a été mise en place. Dans ce cas, il apparait que la propagation du virus est inhibée dans les feuilles de la rosette mais pas dans les tissus floraux. Ainsi, la résistance/sensibilité au PPV chez JEA est fortement conditionnée par les stades physiologiques de la plante hôte. Des travaux complémentaires seront indispensables afin de décrire plus finement ce mécanisme de résistance très particulier. Au terme de cette thèse, nous nous attendons à ce que l’identification de ces nouveaux gènes de résistance chez Arabidopsis permette, après transfert, d’accroître la diversité des sources de résistance à la Sharka chez les arbres fruitiers. / The Plum Pox Virus (PPV) infects Prunus species (stone fruit) and is the causal agent of the Sharka disease. This disease is vastly devastating for fruit and plant productivity and quality. Its cost reaches 10 billions of euros over the last 30 years. Breeding programs have been carried out with the aim to implement resistant cultivars but the number of sources of resistance in Prunus species is rather limited. It has been shown in the laboratory that this virus is able to infect Arabidopsis thaliana with a wide range of response to infection. Indeed, we observed that accessions St-0 and JEA had a resistant behavior, while accession Cvi-1 was partially resistant. Two inoculation methods were compared: mechanical inoculation from Nicotiana benthamiana leaves inoculated with pICPPVnkGFP and agro-inoculation infection from an Agrobacterium strain containing the viral isolate tumesfasciens pBINPPVnkGFP. The use of these two methods of inoculation allows us to highlight variability in the response to PPV depending on the method used. This study aims to identify the factor (s) of the host (s) involved in viral infection. Agro-infection of recombinant populations (F2 and RIL), multi-parental lines and the use of genetic association demonstrate in St-0 and several distinct accessions (seven) a major locus on linkage group 3, called sha3. It appears essential in the long-distance movement of PPV. Use of association genetics helped initiate the fine mapping of sha3 and significantly reduce the number of candidate genes. Screening of mutants was initiated to determine the gene controlling the phenotype Sha3. After mechanical inoculation, the analysis of a recombinant population revealed the presence of a major locus positioned in the middle of the long arm of linkage group 1. This locus co-localizes with rpv1, previously identified in Cvi x Ler offspring (Sicard, Loudet et al. 2008). The same locus was also confirmed with a multi-parental population and by a genetic association approach. A candidate gene is currently being validated in the laboratory. The study of the resistance mechanism carried by the accession JEA was initiated. In this case, it appears that the spread of the virus is inhibited in basal leaves but not in floral stem. The resistance / susceptibility to PPV in JEA appear to be strongly influenced by the physiological stages of the host plant. Further work will be necessary to describe more precisely this resistance mechanism very special. At the end of this thesis, we expect that the identification of these new resistance genes in Arabidopsis allows, after transfer, to increase the diversity of sources of resistance to plum pox virus in fruit trees.

Les fonctionnelles de Minkowski définissent des mesures topologiques et géométriques d'ensembles, insuffisantes pour la caractérisation, des ensembles différents pouvant avoir les mêmes fonctionnelles. D'autres fonctionnelles de forme, géométriques et morphométriques, sont donc utilisées. Un diagramme de forme, défini grâce à deux fonctionnelles morphométriques, donne une représentation permettant d'étudier les formes d'ensembles. En analyse d'image, ces fonctionnelles et diagrammes sont souvent limités aux images binaires et déterminés de manière globale et mono-échelle. Les Voisinages Adaptatifs Généraux (VAG) simultanément adaptatifs avec les échelles d'analyse, structures spatiales et intensités des images, permettent de pallier ces limites. Une analyse locale, adaptative et multi-échelle des images à tons de gris est proposée sous forme de cartographies des fonctionnelles de forme à VAG.Les VAG, définis en tout point du support spatial d'une image à tons de gris, sont homogènes par rapport à un critère d'analyse représenté dans un modèle vectoriel, suivant une tolérance d'homogénéité. Les fonctionnelles de forme calculées pour chaque VAG de l'image définissent les cartographies des fonctionnelles de forme à VAG. Les histogrammes et diagrammes de ces cartographies donnent des distributions statistiques des formes des structures locales de l'image contrairement aux histogrammes classiques qui donnent une distribution globale des intensités de l'image. L'impact de la variation des critères axiomatiques des VAG est analysé à travers ces cartographies, histogrammes et diagrammes. Des cartographies multi-échelles sont construites, définissant des fonctions de forme à VAG.

Pour comprendre comment se construisent les connaissances sur l’effet des interventions en médecine, il est nécessaire de savoir où est faite la recherche clinique dans le monde, quelles maladies sont étudiées, et quels acteurs la mettent en place. Une vision globale du système de recherche peut aider à identifier des lacunes dans la production de connaissances et à orienter l’activité de recherche vers les priorités de santé, en particulier dans les régions où les ressources sont limitées. Dans ce travail nous avons construit des cartographies de la recherche clinique, c’est-à-dire des analyses agrégées de ce système complexe visant à extraire de l’information sur l’activité globale de recherche. Nous avons utilisé les registres d’essais cliniques inclus dans l’International Clinical Trials Registry Platform de l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé pour cartographier l’activité de recherche. Dans un premier travail nous avons évalué pour 7 régions l’alignement entre l’effort local de recherche sur 10 ans et le fardeau de 27 groupes de maladies. Ce travail a nécessité le développement d’un algorithme de classification automatique des maladies étudiées dans les essais clinique basé sur des méthodes de traitement automatique du langage. À partir des données de 117,180 essais randomisés, nous avons montré que la recherche faite dans les pays riches était bien alignée avec leurs besoins. Dans toutes les autres régions nous avons identifié des lacunes dans l’effort de recherche. En particulier, en Afrique Subsaharienne, même si des causes majeures de fardeau comme le VIH et le paludisme reçoivent un effort de recherche important, d’autres priorités locales, les maladies infectieuses communes et les pathologies du nouveau-né, ont été négligées par l’effort de recherche. Dans un deuxième travail nous avons évalué l’influence du type de promoteur (industriel ou non-industriel) dans l’utilisation de réseaux de pays pour recruter des patients dans des essais cliniques multi-pays. Nous avons montré que 30% contre 3% des essais à promoteur industriel et non-industriel sont multi-pays, respectivement. Les pays d’Europe de l’Est participent dans leur ensemble de façon surreprésentée dans la recherche multi-pays industrielle. Ceci suggère les grandes capacités des industriels à globaliser leur recherche en s’appuyant sur des réseaux de pays bien définis. À l’échelle de tous les essais clinique enregistrés, nos travaux ont mis en évidence des lacunes majeures dans l’effort de recherche mondial, et montré l’influence des différents acteurs dans la globalisation de celle-ci. Ces travaux forment une brique pour le développement d’un observatoire global de la recherche médicale. / By knowing what clinical research is undertaken worldwide, where it is conducted, which diseases are studied, and who is supporting it, we could have a better understanding on how is created the knowledge concerning health interventions. A global landscape of health research may inform policy makers on knowledge gaps and on how to reallocate resources to address health needs, in particular in low-resource settings. In this thesis we mapped clinical research, i.e. we analyzed at a macro-level the complex system of health research to bring information on the global landscape of health research effort. We based our analyses on clinical trial registries included in the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform from the World Health Organization. In a first project, we evaluated within 7 regions the local alignment between the effort of research and the burden for 27 groups of diseases. This work needed the development of a knowledge-based classifier of clinical trial registries according to diseases studied based on natural language processing methods. We mapped 117,180 randomized controlled trials. For high-income countries, the research effort was well aligned with the needs. In all other regions we identified research gaps. In particular, for Sub-Saharan Africa, where major causes of burden such as HIV and malaria received a high research attention, research was lacking for major causes of burden, especially for common infectious diseases and neonatal disorders. In a second project, we compared the mappings of multi-country trials for industry- and non-industry–sponsored clinical trials, and analyzed the networks of collaboration of countries participating together to the same multi-country trials. We showed that among industry- and non-industry–sponsored trials, 30% and 3% were multi-country, respectively. The collaboration within Eastern European countries was particularly over-represented for industry-sponsored research. Industry sponsors may thus have a greater capacity to conduct globalized research, using well-defined networks of countries. Our large-scale mappings of all registered clinical trials shed light on major gaps in the effort of health research as compared to health needs. In addition, we showed the influence of different sponsors in the globalization of clinical research. These projects are in-line with the development of a global observatory for health research.

This project aspires to understand the tuberculosis sanatoria in Sweden from the perspective of their location in space and the interpretation of the characteristics of their landscapes. The study has sorted the areas of analysis in the following categories: [i] distribution, [ii] altitude, [iii] orientation, [iv] proximity to the sea, [v] proximity to lakes or rivers, [vi] proximity to train stations, [vii] proximity to forests, [viii] proximity to towns or hospitals, [ix] proximity to industries. The spatial analysis will rely on observation and on GIS technology. Two different software have been used, Qgis and ArcGis, but mainly the first due to its disposition as free software and therefore available for all and easily accessible. Thereafter, the results of these analyses have been interpreted in the light of hermeneutical philosophy, seeking the understanding of each of the parts before understanding the whole, and interpreting the spatial results in the light of the information about the anti-tuberculosis movement.                             Tuberculosis sanatoria cannot be interpreted without the support of medical theories existing during tuberculosis crisis' times. Sanatoria spatial interpretation is also executed under the premises of Corner’s essential points across any spatial analysis: [i] the primacy of perception and [ii] the role of tradition. Considering the primacy of perception, some of the buildings and their surroundings have been visited “in situ” or studied through photos and images. This supported the understanding of the spatial elements of the sanatoria. The weight of tradition existing in the sanatoria is strong. The sanatorium’s environment as an element of the treatment for the patient roots in the 19th century and its hygienic theories. This influenced the organic architecture movement that encouraged a return to nature in search of health, fresh air, and well-being during the industrial revolution.                          The results proved that many Swedish sanatoria aimed to find good environmental conditions that supported the fresh-air treatment, in harmony with the medical theories of the times but also in areas where they were more needed for the working force. They were hardly ever isolated or placed on high altitudes. Supplies like water and heating were generally nearby to provide the sanatoria with the necessary resources, while other needs could be covered by the proximity to train stations or towns. Other sanatoria were placed within cities, in search of better facilities and services, but they gave up the benefits attributed to the clean and fresh air in the patients.                                                           This study shows that spatial analysis has achieved a great understanding of Swedish sanatoria from a new perspective never developed in Sweden. It has demonstrated a relationship between the social workforce and health care, and it could have been the start of a strong investment in popular care in Sweden that has not stopped since.

[ES] La representación del territorio ha suscitado un gran interés en los artistas a lo largo de la historia. El principal objetivo de esta investigación consiste en estudiar la relación entre el mapa y la producción de artistas contemporáneos del siglo XX y XXI. Para entender el lenguaje cartográfico analizamos el origen del mapa, su evolución hasta nuestros días y su relación con el arte a lo largo de la historia. Posteriormente indagamos, sobre algunas cuestiones que tienen que ver con la representación del territorio, como su relación con los intereses políticos y económicos. Porque como defiende J.B. Harley en su libro La nueva naturaleza de Los Mapas: Ensayos Sobre La Historia de la Cartografía, los mapas no son una representación objetiva del mundo. La información geográfica que presentan está condicionada para crear una imagen que favorezca unos intereses determinados. La necesidad de entender estos mecanismos de poder nos obliga a analizar la estructura del lenguaje cartográfico y deconstruirlo para descubrir las intenciones ocultas que se encuentran tras un lenguaje su-puestamente objetivo. Esta investigación nos ayuda a profundizar en el lenguaje cartográfico para entender cómo nos relacionamos con el entorno y cómo su percepción puede ser traducida a una obra de arte. Para resolver esta cuestión, analizamos la obra de diferentes artistas del siglo XX y XXI, que utilizan dichos conceptos cartográficos en sus investigaciones artísticas. Este estudio nos permite constatar la importancia de dichas investigaciones tanto por su cantidad como por su calidad y por otra parte nos ayuda a entender el creciente interés de los artistas por cuestiones cartográficas. Por otra parte, como artista, esta investigación nos permite mejorar la solvencia conceptual de nuestra obra, mejorando su calidad en muchos aspectos. / [CA] La representació del territori ha suscitat un gran interès en els artistes al llarg de la història. El principal objectiu d'aquesta investigació consisteix a estudiar la relació entre el mapa i la producció d'artistes contemporanis del segle XX i XXI. Per a entendre el llenguatge cartogràfic analitzem l'origen del mapa, la seua evolució fins als nostres dies i la seua relació amb l'art al llarg de la història. Posteriorment indaguem, a un nivell teòric, algunes qüestions que te-nen a veure amb la representació del territori, com la seua relació amb els interessos polítics i econòmics. Perquè com defensa J.B. Harley en el seu llibre, La nova naturalesa dels Mapes: Assajos Sobre La Història de la Cartografia, els mapes no són una representació objectiva del món. La informació geogràfica que presenten està condicionada per a crear una imatge que afavorisca uns interessos determinats. La necessitat d'entendre aquests mecanismes de poder ens obliga a analitzar l'estructura del llenguatge cartogràfic i desconstruirlo per a descobrir les intencions ocultes que es troben després d'un llenguatge suposadament objectiu. Aquesta investigació ens ajuda a aprofundir en el llenguatge cartogràfic per a entendre com ens relacionem amb l'entorn i com la seua percepció pot ser traduïda a una obra d'art. Per a resoldre aquesta qüestió, analitzem l'obra de diferents artistes del segle XX i XXI, que utilitzen aquests conceptes cartogràfics en les seues investigacions artístiques. Aquest estudi ens permet constatar la importància d'aquestes investigacions tant per la seua quantitat com per la seua qualitat i d'altra banda ens ajuda a entendre el creixent interès dels artistes per qüestions cartogràfiques. D'altra banda, com a artista, aquesta investigació ens permet millorar la solvència conceptual de la nostra obra, millorant la seua qualitat en molts aspectes. / [EN] The representation of territory has aroused great interest in artists throughout history. The main objective of this research is to study the rela-tionship between maps and the production of /the works produced by con-temporary artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. In order to understand cartographic language, I will look at the origin of the map, its evolution up to the present day and its relationship with art throughout history. On a theoretical level, I will subsequently analyse a series of questions related to the representation of territory, such as its relationship with political and economic interests. As Harley argues in his book The New Nature of Maps: Essays in the History of Cartography, maps are not an objective representation of the world. Instead, the geographical information they present is conditioned to create an image that favours certain interests. The need to understand these mechanisms of power forces us to analyse the structure of cartographic language and deconstruct it in order to uncover the hidden intentions behind a supposedly objective language. This theoretical enquiry helps us study cartographic language in more detail so as to understand how we relate to the environment and how its per-ception can be translated into a work of art. To resolve this matter, I will analyse the work of different artists of the 20th and 21st centuries who use these cartographic concepts in their artistic research. This study allows us to see the importance of these investigations, both in terms of quantity and quality, and also helps us to understand the artists' growing interest in cartographic issues. On the other hand, as artist, this research allows us to improve the conceptual soundness of our work, improving its quality in many aspects. / Valero Hoyo, V. (2023).

[pt] A escrita desta dissertação teve como intuito discorrer sobre as ações do projeto Lastro – Intercâmbios Livres em Arte, entendendo-o como rede de contatos e plataforma de ação para projetos colaborativos. Uma proposta que visa conexões no campo da arte e cultura no contexto América Latina, porém com reverberações além-territórios. Como rede opera em diferentes frentes de trabalho e pensamento, tendo a mobilidade contemporânea como foco de estudo. Esta pesquisa propôs uma ramificação do pensamento sobre mobilidade em formato de cadernos de viagens, aprofundando pontos de vista e abordagens diferenciadas acerca do deslocamento e como este é entendido por artistas, transformando-se em poética. Quatro cadernos que se transmutarão em pequenas publicações via coleção de livros Lastro. Tal trânsito tem como objetivo fomentar projetos editoriais experimentais que atuem como dispositivo questionador e aglutinador. Além disso, tal projeto inaugura o selo editorial Lastro, o que faz nascer mais uma atividade da rede. A realização dessa pesquisa vem auxiliar uma maior compreensão conceitual do Lastro e sua potência política enquanto proposta curatorial rizomática. / [en] The core aim in the writing of this abstract was to discourse on the project named Lastro - Intercâmbios Livres em Arte (ballast –free exchange art) seeing it as an action platform and a network for cooperative projects. A project that seeks the connections of artistic and cultural fields within the Latin-America context, though resounding beyond its limits. As a network it acts in various types of work fronts and thoughts, having a contemporary movability as its study focus. That research has proposed a branching of the thoughts on movability in the shape of travel diaries, deepening points of views and the differentiated approaches regarding movement and how it is understood by artists by shaping it into poetic. Four diaries that will take the format of small publications through the Lastro book collection. The goal of such movement is to promote the experimental publishing projects that may act as a questioning as well as unifying device. Besides, such project also inaugurates the Lastro imprint, and by doing so, we’ll be starting one more activity in its network. The execution of such research intends to enhance the conceptual comprehension of Lastro and its political potentiality as a non-hierarchical curatorship project.

This thesis draws on a community-engaged digital-mapping project with the Vancouver Island Coast Salish community of the Stz’uminus First Nation. In this paper, I discuss the ways in which conventional cartographic representations of Indigenous peoples are laden with methodological and visual assumptions that position Indigenous peoples’ perspectives, stories, and experiences within test-, proof-, and boundary-driven legal and Eurocentric contexts. In contrast, I frame this project’s methodology and digital mapping tools as an effort to map a depth of place, the emotional, spiritual, experiential, and kin-based cultural context that is routinely glossed over in conventional mapping practices. I argue elders’ place-based stories, when recorded on video and embedded in a digital map, produce a space for the “unmappable,” that which cannot, or will not, be expressed within the constructs of a static two-dimensional map. This thesis also describes a refusal to steep maps too deeply in cultural context for a public audience. I detail the conversations that emerged in response to a set of deeply spiritual, cultural, and personal stories to mark how the presence of Coast Salish law, customs, power structures, varying intra-community perspectives, and refusal came to bear on the production of “blank space” (interpreted colonially and legally as terra nullius) in this project’s cartographic representation. Finally, I conclude that Coast Salish sharing customs are embedded within networks of Coast Salish customary legal traditions, which fundamentally affects tensions that arise between storytelling and digital mapping technologies, between academic and community accountabilities, and between collective and individual consent. / Graduate / 2019-10-13

Les charges internes qui s'accumulent dans les matériaux diélectriques sont un facteur potentiel de vieillissement des matériaux à travers les distorsions de champ interne qu'elles provoquent. Durant les trois dernières décennies, des nombreuses techniques non-destructives de mesure de charges d'espace et de polarisation ont été développées et appliquées à un large éventail de thèmes, tels que les processus de vieillissement des matériaux piézoélectriques, le développement et optimisation de capteurs piézoélectriques, les phénomènes de rupture dans les câbles ou les revêtements diélectriques pour le contrôle thermique des satellites géostationnaires. Notre équipe a ainsi développé une méthode originale, appelée FLIMM (Focused Laser Induced Modulation Method) et s'est équipée de la méthode PEA (Pulsed Electro-Acoustic). Dans un premier temps, la méthode FLIMM a été adaptée pour réaliser des mesures sous champ électrique appliqué. Ces mesures sous tension permettent entre autre de calibrer les mesures de charges d'espace. Ensuite, une nouvelle stratégie de mesure a été mise en œuvre, elle permet après une phase de calibration, de choisir la zone d'étude et de mesurer l'état de charge dans l'échantillon avec une haute résolution de l'ordre du micromètre dans un temps réduit. Dans un second temps, la modélisation thermique a été abordée. Un nouveau modèle 1D multicouches rendant le calcul plus souple et flexible et une modélisation multicouches de la température en 3D par éléments finis ont permis une prise en compte plus fine de l'environnement thermique de l'échantillon et de l'absorption du faisceau laser. Enfin, des cartographies 3D de profil de charges d'espace ou de polarisation ont été réalisées avec une très bonne résolution spatiale sur des films minces de PEN soumis à une irradiation UV, de PVDF-TrFE ou de PTFE. Les cartographies effectuées sur le PVDF-TrFE ont été comparées avec celles obtenues par la méthode TPT. Concernant les mesures de charges d'espace effectuées sur les films minces de PTFE irradiés par un faisceau d'électrons, les résultats obtenus avec les techniques FLIMM et PEA ont mis en évidence de leur complémentarité.
