Em outras palavras, a investigação procurou refletir sobre as mudanças e as permanências que ocorrem nessa realidade específica, analisando as constantes (re)significações que as irmãs realizam sobre sua própria situação. Para tanto, foi necessário contextualizar as origens do monaquismo, da clausura religiosa e sua expansão no Ocidente, enfatizando a influência dos preceitos de Francisco de Assis sobre a fundadora da Ordem, Clara de Assis, no século XIII. Também foi importante fazer um levantamento historiográfico do desenvolvimento da vida religiosa feminina no Brasil até os dias contemporâneos, devido às transformações que vêm ocorrendo nos institutos de vida consagrada e afetam, também, a religiosidade clariana. Fez-se necessário pensar a trajetória das mulheres que compartilham desses ideais monásticos, compreendendo as motivações para o ingresso e permanência na vida religiosa, analisando seu cotidiano no claustro e refletindo sobre as relações dentro do mosteiro e além dele, isto é, com a hierarquia católica e a sociedade laica. A partir do trabalho etnográfico no mosteiro paulista, foi possível constatar que as religiosas se adaptaram a uma realidade capitalista e globalizada, conservando os preceitos de sua fundadora. As práticas da oração contemplativa, pobreza e clausura permaneceram como partes inerentes à vocação clariana. O estudo dessa religiosidade possibilitou a compreensão dos sentidos e significados atribuídos à eclesialidade contemplativa e permitiu conhecer qual o lugar da vida religiosa monástica feminina nos dias contemporâneos. / This research sought to understand how is built and expressed the religiosity of a group of nuns from São Paulo adepts to the Order of St. Clare of Assisi. In other words, the research sought to reflect on the changes and the continuities that occur in that particular reality, analyzing the constant (new) meanings that the sisters carry on their own situation. Therefore, it was necessary to contextualize the origins of monasticism, the cloistered religious and its expansion in the West, emphasizing the influence of the precepts of Francis of Assisi on the Order's founder, Clare of Assisi, in the thirteenth century. It was also important to make a historiographical survey of the development of Brazilian female religious life to contemporary days, due to the transformations taking place in institutes of consecrated life which affect also the Clarian religiosity. It was necessary to think about the trajectory of women who share these monastic ideals, understanding the motivations to enter and remain in the religious life, analyzing their daily life in the cloister and reflecting on the relationships within the monastery and beyond, that is, with the hierarchy Catholic and secular society. From the ethnographic work in São Paulo monastery was established that the religious have adapted to a capitalist and globalized reality, keeping the precepts of its founder. The practice of contemplative prayer, poverty and remained cloistered parts inherent to Clarian vocation. The study of this religion enabled the understanding of the senses and meanings attributed to the contemplative and it allowed knowing the place of female monastic life in contemporary days.

Um planejamento fatorial completo 24 foi realizado, com 3 pontos centrais e oito axiais, utilizando-se as seguintes variáveis independentes: temperatura (55-95 °C) e vazão total do ar de secagem (97,1-138,3 m³/h), razão entre vazão de ar de jorro e ânulo (0,6-1,4) e vazão de alimentação de pasta (2,0-10,0 g/min). Como respostas foram avaliadas a distribuição de umidade no leito durante a secagem, teor de umidade do produto, massa de matéria seca retida pelas esferas inertes, eficiência de recuperação do pó, cor do produto em pó e depois de dissolvido em água, propriedades térmicas, teor de proteína, solubilidade em meio aquoso e propriedades reológicas a baixas e altas deformações de géis térmicos de clara de ovo. O uso de planejamento fatorial completo e superfícies de resposta foram fundamentais para avaliar o efeito simultâneo das condições de secagem em leito de jorro fluidizado sobre o processo e o produto obtido. Esta metodologia diminuiu significativamente o número de experimentos e se mostrou eficiente para conhecer a relação de causa e efeito das condições de processo sobre as respostas. Todas as condições de processo estudadas influenciaram nas características do produto obtido, porém a temperatura e a vazão de ar foram as mais importantes na definição da qualidade da clara de ovo seca em leito de jorro fluidizado. Para avaliar a relação entre as várias respostas obtidas e as variáveis de processo, bem como determinar as condições ótimas de operação do secador foi aplicada a técnica estatística da desejabilidade. Concluiu-se que os níveis ótimos de operação do secador seriam: temperatura de 73,7 °C, vazão de ar de 110,8 m³/h, razão vazão de jorro/vazão de ânulo de 1,1 (58,04 m³/h e 52,76 m³/h de vazão de jorro e ânulo, respectivamente) e vazão de pasta de 9,2 g/min. Nestas condições, 60% do total desejado para todas as respostas seria atendido, sendo que a eficiência de recuperação de matéria seca pelo ciclone seria de 74,4% e o grau de desnaturação das proteínas seria baixo (conalbumina: 42,1% e ovalbumina: 25,5%), o que resultaria em elevado grau de solubilidade (em torno de 98%). Neste caso, a temperatura de início de desenvolvimento da estrutura do gel seria estimada em 62 ºC, porém a força da rede seria dada pela desnaturação da ovalbumina (temperatura de desnaturação próxima a 80 oC) e por isto, as características reológicas de géis térmicos de clara de ovo foram estudadas. Os géis térmicos (80 ºC/30 min) de clara de ovo seca em leito de jorro fluidizado mostraram alta deformabilidade e características elásticas similares aos géis obtidos a partir de clara de ovo liofilizada. Assim, a partir da análise dos resultados obtidos foi possível otimizar a secagem da clara de ovo em leito de jorro fluidizado alcançando-se boa eficiência de processo e preservando suas propriedades funcionais / Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate an egg white drying process using a two-dimensional spouted fluidized bed dryer with glass spheres as the inert particles. A complete 24 factorial design was used, with 3 central and 8 axial points, using the following independent variables: temperature (55-95ºC), total drying air flow rate (97.1-138.3 m3/h), ratio between spout and annulus air flow rates (0.6-1.4)and paste feed flow rate (2.0-10.0 g/min). As responses, the moisture distribution in the bed during drying, product moisture content, mass of dry matter adhered to inert particles, powder recovery efficiency, product colour as powder and after dissolving in water, thermal properties, protein content, solubility in aqueous medium and rheological properties at high and low deformation of heat-induced egg white gels. The use of a complete factorial design and response surfaces was fundamental to evaluate the simultaneous effect of the drying conditions in a spouted fluidized bed on the process and obtained product. This methodology significantly reduced the number of experiments and showed to be efficient to understand the cause and effect relationship of process conditions on responses. All the process conditions studied influenced the characteristics of the product obtained, but temperature and air flow rate were the most important variables in defining the quality of the egg white dried in a spouted fluidized bed. The statistical technique of desirability was used to evaluate the relationship between the various responses obtained and the process variables, and to determine the optimum dryer operating conditions. It was concluded that the optimum operational levels for the dryer were: temperature of 73.7ºC, air flow rate of 110.8 m3/h, ratio of spout/annulus flow rate of 1.1 (58.04 m3/h and 52.76 m3/h of spout and annulus flow rate, respectively) and paste flow rate of 9.2 g/min. Under these conditions, 60% of the desired total for all the responses would be attained, the recovery efficiency of the dry material by the cyclone would be 74.4% and the degree of protein denaturation would be low (conalbumin: 42.1% and ovalbumin: 25.5%), resulting in very good solubility (about 98%). In this case, the temperature at the start of the gel structure development would be estimated at 62ºC, although the gel strength would be given by the ovalbumin denaturation (denaturation temperature near 80ºC) and for this reason, the rheological characteristics of the thermal egg white gels were investigated. The thermal gels (80ºC/30 min) of egg white dried in a spouted fluidized bed, obtained in this study, showed high deformability and elastic characteristics, similar to the gels obtained from freeze-dried egg white (literature data). Thus, from the analysis of the obtained results it was possible to optimize the drying of egg white in a spouted fluidized bed, obtaining good process efficiency yet preserving the functional properties / Doutorado / Doutor em Engenharia de Alimentos

Clara Schumann’s 1850 tour of northern Germany with her husband officially ended with a successful concert in Altona where Jenny Lind made a surprise appearance. Immediately thereafter, one more concert featuring the pianist, singer, and Robert’s music was added at the last minute to take place in Hamburg. This too was a success. But a detail that made it especially memorable was Lind’s position behind the piano lid so that, as Clara recounted in her diary, many audience members could hardly catch a glimpse of her. This paper explores the rationales and implications of this singular and fleeting moment, and teases out aspects of the two star performers’ relationship both on and off the stage. In the process, the paper draws attention to hitherto neglected variables in the performance practice of Lieder and seeks to expand our lines of inquiry with regards to the 19th-century Lied as cultural practice.

In this study, the life and work of Robert Schumann was examined, with the purpose of from a source critical point of view discovering new perspectives on the composer's mental health and creative tools used in his compositions and writings. Furthermore, the study aimed to debunk common misconceptions about Robert Schumann's fate.

The study of enzyme binding sites is an essential but rather demanding process of increased complexity since the amino acids lining these areas are not rigid. At the same time, the minimization of side effects and the specificity of new ligands is a great challenge in the structure-based drug design approach. Using glycogen phosphorylase - a validated target for the development of new antidiabetic agents - as a case study, this project focuses on the examination of side-chain conformations of amino acids that play a key role in the catalytic site of the enzyme. Specifically, different rotamers of each amino acid were collected to build a dataset of different conformations of the catalytic site. The rotamers were filtered by their probability of occurrence and subsequently, all rotamers that create steric clashes were rejected. Then, these conformations were clustered based on their similarity. Three different clustering algorithms and multiple numbers of clusters were tested using the silhouette scores evaluation for the clustering process. In order to measure the similarity, the Euclidean metric was used which due to the correspondence of the coordinates between the conformations was very similar to the cRMSD metric. Two-level clustering was applied to the dataset for more in-depth observations. According to the clustering results, specific aminoacids with major geometrical variations in their rotamers play the most important role in the separation of the clusters. Additionally, all rotamers of an amino acid can be grouped based on their structure, something that was confirmed using “Chimera” software as a visualization tool. To this end, the ultimate aim of this study is to examine whether the clustering of conformations produces clusters with points geometrically similar to each other, in order to identify near neighbors, i.e. conformations that are quite similar in structure but do not play a determinant role in the function and those that are quite diverse and could be further exploited.
