No caminho das pedras brancas : Alex Steinweiss e o processo de fundamentação de um paradigma para o projeto de capas de discos / On the white stones path : Alex Steinweiss and the creation of a paradigm for album cover design

Rezende, André Novaes de 20 August 2018 (has links)
Orientadores: Edson do Prado Pfützenreuter, Anna Paula Silva Gouveia / Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Artes / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-20T07:52:01Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Rezende_AndreNovaesde_D.pdf: 133268389 bytes, checksum: e0ce46145e8906cad7a46c671ea5c52e (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: No fim do século XIX, o diálogo entre as artes visuais e a música abriu precedentes para que as artes aplicadas, ou comerciais, incentivassem o consumo do espetáculo musical. Paralelamente, com o desenvolvimento tecnológico da indústria fonográfica, a música passou a ser gravada e comercializada. A comercialização da música gravada, por sua vez, também foi beneficiada por um interesse de explorar-se uma conexão visual com o conteúdo da gravação. Em 1940, este interesse foi diretamente manifestado pelo designer gráfico norte-americano Alex Steinweiss, quando começou a projetar capas de álbuns de discos de 78rpm para a gravadora Columbia Records. Steinweiss não foi o primeiro artista comercial ou designer gráfico a projetar uma capa ilustrada para álbuns de discos de 78rpm mas, ao projetar capas, foi pioneiro na intenção de exercer uma correspondência semântica com o conteúdo musical dos discos. Esta tese tem como grande objetivo o resgate das principais condições históricas e culturais que ajudaram a caracterizar o trabalho de Steinweiss e que possibilitaram fosse ele incorporado com sucesso pela indústria fonográfica. Por meio do levantamento de tais condições e também do próprio método de projeto de Steinweiss, observou-se que seu sucesso proporcionou o estabelecimento de um paradigma, na medida em que as soluções propostas por ele foram, posteriormente, tomadas como modelo e substituíram as regras vigentes para o projeto gráfico das capas dos álbuns de discos / Abstract: By the end of the nineteenth century, the dialog between visual arts and music was a great influence on the applied arts, or commercial arts, in its own task of promoting the music spectacle. Meanwhile, with the technological development of the music industry, music started to be recorded and commercialized. The recorded music business, moved by its own interests, also explored a visual connection with the recorded musical content of their product. In 1940, the early work of the American graphic designer Alex Steinweiss was a consequence of this interest, as he started to design album covers for 78rpm records while working at Columbia Records. Steinweiss was not the first commercial artist or graphic designer to design illustrated album covers for 78rpm records, but he was the first one who expected to achieve semantic correspondence with the musical content of the record. The main goal of this thesis is to retrieve key historical and cultural conditions that influenced Steinweiss' work and allowed him to succeed as a graphic designer inside the recorded music business. By doing so, and by setting up aspects of Steinweiss' design methods, we have come to the conclusion that his success characterized a paradigm. The solutions he offered were taken as models and replaced the rules that determined how an album cover should be designed / Doutorado / Artes Visuais / Doutor em Artes

Contributions à la géométrie algébrique imparfaite en caractéristique positive / Contributions to imperfect algebraic geometry in positive characteristic

Huang, Yuliang 18 September 2019 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse, composé de quatre parties, est consacré à l’étude de la géométrie algébrique en caractéristiques mixte et positive. Dans la première partie, motivés par une théorie conjecturale de la ramification pour les torseurs inséparables, nous étudions les modèles maximaux des torseurs sur un corps local, qui sont une généralisation des anneaux des entiers dans la théorie classique de la ramification. Nous prouvons la maximalité et la fonctorialité des modèles maximaux et nous les calculons explicitement pour les schémas en groupes finis plats d'ordre p. La deuxième partie est un travail en commun avec Giulio Orecchia et Matthieu Romagny. Nous étudions la perfection des algèbres et la coperfection des espaces et champs algébriques. Nous prouvons que l’espace des composantes connexes fournit la coperfection d’un espace algébrique et il représente la colimite du système de Frobenius relatifs. Dans le cas des champs algébriques, nous construisons le pro-groupoïde fondamental étale, nous prouvons qu'il fournit la coperfection, et il représente la colimite du système de Frobenius relatifs dans le cas de Deligne-Mumford. Dans la troisième partie, nous prouvons quelques résultats de platitude et de représentabilité des espaces de modules de torseurs sous certains schémas en groupes, qui découlent naturellement de l’espace de modules propre des p-revêtements galoisiens. Nous discutons également de la relation avec les jacobiennes généralisées des courbes ouvertes. Dans la dernière partie, nous nous intéressons à un nouveau type de géométrie analytique non-archimédienne, avec des valuations à valeurs dans des monoïdes commutatifs totalement ordonnés. Nous étudions quelques exemples de schémas et d’espaces adiques. / This thesis work, consisting of four parts, is devoted to the study of algebraic geometry in mixed and positive characteristics. In the first part, motivated by a conjectural ramification theory for inseparable torsors, we study the maximal model of a torsor over a local field, which is a generalization of integer rings in classical ramification theory. We prove the maximality and functoriality of maximal models, and calculate them explicitly for some finite flat group schemes of order p. The second part is a joint work with Giulio Orecchia and Matthieu Romagny. We study perfection of algebras and coperfection of algebraic spaces and stacks. We prove that the space of connected components provides the coperfection of an algebraic space, and it represents the colimit of relative Frobenii. In the case of algebraic stacks, we construct the étale fundamental pro-groupoid, and prove that it provides the coperfection, and it represents the colimit of relative Frobenii in Deligne-Mumford case. In the third part, we prove some results on flatness and representability of moduli spaces of torsors under certain group schemes, which naturally arise from the proper moduli space of Galois p-covers (stable p-torsors). We also discuss the relation with generalized Jacobians of open curves. In the last part, we are interested in a new kind of nonarchimedean analytic geometry, with valuations on totally ordered commutative monoids. We study some examples from schemes and adic spaces.

Uzavírací mechanismus papírových sáčků / Closing mechanism paper bag

Klíma, Pavel January 2009 (has links)
This thesis deals with a design of new dot-wheels gearing. These wheels serve for closing of paper covers of tea bags. First of all the suggested spare options of the gearing shape are compared with the original. On the basis of the comparison results the gearing is solved as a substandard kind of involute gearing. The involute gearing is designed by the method of generalized parameters. For the gearing design the program GEARING – symetrical profile version 1.5. was used. Consequently this program was adapted for the case of the change of the instrument shape by the user. The kind of wheels material was designed. Further the way of wheels production for single-piece and batch production was also designed. At the end the economic evaluation of the wheels production with newly designed profile was done.

Att döma en bok efter dess omslag : En studie om visuella trender och könsframställningar på romantikböcker / Judging a book by its cover : A study of visual trends and gender stereotypes represented on romance books

Memic, Selma, Vargas Catalan, Zuni Aurora January 2023 (has links)
Bokomslaget är ett viktigt marknadsföringsverktyg för att attrahera konsumenter och är den första kontakten en läsare har med boken. Romantikböcker står för 18 % av försäljningen av fiktion och 82 % av läsarna är kvinnor. Tidigare forskning visar att bokomslag representerar kulturella idéer och konstaterar att det finns en korrelation mellan samhällets sociala struktur och konsumeringen av böcker och att det finns etablerade normer för hur sex och romantik representeras. Studien analyserar bokomslag för att förstå de kulturella idéerna och den kulturella kontexten inom romantik ƒgenren för 2022. Metoden är en kombination av kvalitativ och kvantitativ analys, med ett teoretiskt ramverk av representationsteori, stereotyper, troper och Goffmans könsstereotyper. Resultatet av studien visade bland annat att det förekommer en visuell trend av sexualisering av män som kulturellt består av hegemonisk maskulinitet, att romantikböcker 2022 har ett mörkare tema och att den stereotypiska gestaltningen av människor på romantikböcker är starkt förankrad och att den parallella trenden som återfinns i samhället om inkludering inte påverkar vad som konsumeras på topplistan 2022. / The book cover is an important marketing tool for books to attract consumers and is the first contact readers have with the book. Romance books account for 18 % of fiction sales and 82 % of these readers are women. Previous research shows that book covers represent cultural ideas and establish a correlation between society's social structure and the consumption of books. And that there are established norms for representing sex and romance. This study analyses book covers to understand the cultural ideas and context within the romance genre for 2022. The methodology is a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis, with a theoretical framework of representation theory, stereotypes, tropes, and Goffman's gender stereotypes. The results of the study shows, among other things, that there is a visual trend of sexualising men that culturally consists of hegemonic masculinity, that romance novels for 2022 have a darker theme, and that the stereotypical portrayal of people on romance is strongly anchored. Additionally, the study found that the parallel trend of inclusivity found in society does not affect what is consumed on the top 100 list for romance novels in 2022.

Minimal Cantor sets / Minimala Cantor mängder

Nordin Gröning, Jacob January 2023 (has links)
A Cantor set is a topological space which admits a hierarchy of clopen covers. A minimal Cantor set is a Cantor set together with a map such that every orbit is dense in the Cantor set. In this thesis we us inverse limits to study minimal Cantor sets and their properties. In particular, under certain hypothesis we find an upper bound for the number of ergodic measures for minimal Cantor set. / En Cantor mängd är ett topologiskt rum med en hierarki av slöppna täcken. En minimal Cantor mängd är en Cantor mängd tillsammans med en avblidning så att varje omlppsbana är tät. I den här uppsatsen använder vi omvända gränser för att studera minimala Cantor mängder och deras egenskaper. Särskilt under vissa omständigheter hittar vi en övre begränsning på antalet ergodiska mått på minimala Cantor mängder.

Geometric cycles on moduli spaces of curves

Tarasca, Nicola 24 May 2012 (has links)
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die explizite Berechnung gewisser geometrischer Zykel in Modulräumen von Kurven. In den letzten Jahren wurden Divisoren auf $\Mbar_{g,n}$ ausgiebig untersucht. Durch die Berechnung von Klassen in Kodimension 1 konnten wichtige Ergebnisse in der birationalen Geometrie der Räume $\Mbar_{g,n}$ erzielt werden. In Kapitel 1 geben wir einen Überblick über dieses Thema. Im Gegensatz dazu sind Klassen in Kodimension 2 im Großen und Ganzen unerforscht. In Kapitel 2 betrachten wir den Ort, der im Modulraum der Kurven vom Geschlecht 2k durch die Kurven mit einem Büschel vom Grad k definiert wird. Da die Brill-Noether-Zahl hier -2 ist, hat ein solcher Ort die Kodimension 2. Mittels der Methode der Testflächen berechnen wir die Klasse seines Abschlusses im Modulraum der stabilen Kurven. Das Ziel von Kapitel 3 ist es, die Klasse des Abschlusses des effektiven Divisors in $\Mbar_{6,1}$ zu berechnen, der durch punktierte Kurven [C, p] gegeben ist, für die ein ebenes Modell vom Grad 6 existiert, bei dem p auf einen Doppelpunkt abgebildet wird. Wie Jensen gezeigt hat, erzeugt dieser Divisor einen extremalen Strahl im pseudoeffektiven Kegel von $\Mbar_{6,1}$. Ein allgemeines Ergebnis über gewisse Familien von Linearsystemen mit angepasster Brill-Noether-Zahl 0 oder -1 wird eingeführt, um die Berechnung zu vervollständigen. / The aim of this thesis is the explicit computation of certain geometric cycles in moduli spaces of curves. In recent years, divisors of $\Mbar_{g,n}$ have been extensively studied. Computing classes in codimension one has yielded important results on the birational geometry of the spaces $\Mbar_{g,n}$. We give an overview of the subject in Chapter 1. On the contrary, classes in codimension two are basically unexplored. In Chapter 2 we consider the locus in the moduli space of curves of genus 2k defined by curves with a pencil of degree k. Since the Brill-Noether number is equal to -2, such a locus has codimension two. Using the method of test surfaces, we compute the class of its closure in the moduli space of stable curves. The aim of Chapter 3 is to compute the class of the closure of the effective divisor in $\M_{6,1}$ given by pointed curves [C,p] with a sextic plane model mapping p to a double point. Such a divisor generates an extremal ray in the pseudoeffective cone of $\Mbar_{6,1}$ as shown by Jensen. A general result on some families of linear series with adjusted Brill-Noether number 0 or -1 is introduced to complete the computation.

Démarche d’ingénierie écologique en santé des plantes : étude du rôle des couvre-sol végétaux des vergers dansl'émergence des maladies des arbres fruitiers causées par Pseudomonas syringae / Process of ecological engineering in plant health : study of the role of orchard ground cover plants in the emergence of fruit trees diseases caused by Pseudomonas syringae

Borschinger, Benoit 06 December 2016 (has links)
Démarche d’ingénierie écologique en santé des plantes : gestion des couvre-sol des vergers pour lutter contre les bactérioses des arbres fruitiers provoquées par Pseudomonas syringaeIdentifier les réservoirs et sources d’inoculum des agents phytopathogènes est un enjeu majeur en pathologie végétale. Les systèmes agricoles pérennes, tels que les vergers, sont soumis aux attaques de nombreux ravageurs et agents microbiens pathogènes. P. syringae, agent phytopathogène responsable de l’émergence de maladies des arbres fruitiers, dont la récente épidémie du chancre bactérien du kiwi causée P. syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), représente un enjeu économique important au niveau mondial. En France, les moyens de lutte sont constitués de traitements cupriques et de gestes préventifs visant à réduire la propagation de la bactérie au sein et entre les vergers. Avec la prise de conscience de la nécessité de la conservation de l’environnement par les consommateurs et producteurs, les méthodes de cultures actuelles ont tendances à s’orienter vers celles de l’agroécologie et l’usage de l’ingénierie écologique au service de la santé des plantes. En verger, la gestion des communautés de plantes des couvre-sols donne de bons résultats dans la lutte conte certaines espèces de ravageurs, tels que les arthropodes herbivores, mais les effets sur les communautés de microorganismes pathogènes restent inexplorés. Les plantes couvre-sol et adventices des vergers hébergent d’abondantes communautés de P. syringae, cependant le rôle de ces couverts végétaux dans l’émergence des maladies des arbres fruitiers reste incompris. Par conséquent, les travaux de recherche presentés ici focalisent sur l’étude simultanée des communautés de P. syringae associées aux plantes couvre-sol et aux arbres fruitiers de trois vergers d’abricotiers et de quatre vergers de kiwis du département de la Drôme, sud-est de la France, choisis pour leur état sanitaire (sain, malade ou émergence de la maladie), ainsi que des pratiques de gestion du couvre-sol différentes (sol nu, enherbement des inter-rangs, enherbement des inter rangs et rangs des arbres). En l’absence d’outils permettant une identification rapide et une affiliation à l’un des 13 phylogroupes actuellement décris pour l’espèce P. syringae, l’étude du génome complet d’une cinquantaine de souches de P. syringae a permis la mise au point de marqueurs moléculaires capables d’identifier 9 des 13 phylogroupes. L’étude des communautés de P. syringae hébergées par les couvre-sols végétaux montre un effet de la composition des communautés des plantes couvre-sol sur l’abondance et la structure des communautés de P. syringae. La présence de Prunella vulgaris, une plante de la famille des Lamiaceae, est corrélée avec une diminution de l’abondance des P. syringae. La reproductibilité de ce résultat est actuellement en cours d’investigation dans une parcelle expérimentale. Cependant, les résultats préliminaires montrent une absence d’effet de P. vulgaris sur l’abondance de P. syringae. L’étude simultanée des communautés de P. syringae des couvre-sols végétaux et des arbres fruitiers montre que des échanges se font entre les deux compartiments en raison de la présence de souches génétiquement proches. Chez le kiwi, lorsque Psa est présent il coexiste toujours avec d’autres P. syringae, soulevant la question des interactions entre ces souches et leur rôle dans l’émergence de la maladie. Enfin, les résultats mettent en avant un potentiel antagonisme entre les phylogroupes 1 et 2. / Process of ecological engineering in plant health: study of the role of orchard ground cover plants in the emergence of fruit tree diseases caused by Pseudomonas syringaeIdentification of reservoirs and inoculum sources of plant pathogenic microorganisms is a major issue in plant pathology. Perennial agricultural systems, such as orchards, are exposed to many pests and pathogenic microorganisms. P. syringae, a phytopathogenic bacterium responsible for the emergence of diseases of fruit trees, including the recent outbreak of bacterial canker of kiwifruit caused P. syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), represent an important economic issue worldwide. In France, means of control of bacterial canker consist of copper treatments and preventive measures in order to reduce the spread of bacteria within and between orchards. With the awareness for environmental conservation by consumers and producers, current cultivation methods tend to be progressively replaced by more agroecological ones and the use of ecological engineering to improve plant health. Ecological engineering of orchard ground cover plant communities provides good results for the control of orchard pests, such as herbivorous arthropods, but the effects on pathogenic microbial communities remains unexplored. The ground cover plants and orchard weeds host abundant P. syringae communities, however the role of ground covers in the emergence of fruit tree diseases remains ignored. Therefore, the research presented here is focused on the simultaneous study of P. syringae communities associated with ground covers and fruit trees from three apricot and four kiwifruit orchards of Drôme county, southeastern France, chosen for their health status (healthy, diseased, or disease emergence), as well as different ground cover management practices (bare soil, ground cover in inter-rows, ground cover in inter-rows and tree rows). In the absence of tools for rapid identification and affiliation to one of 13 currently described phylogroups for the P. syringae species, the screening of whole genomes of more than fifty P. syringae strains has allowed the development of specific molecular markers able to identify 9 of the 13 phylogroups. Results show that ground cover P. syringae community abundances and structures are correlated to plant community composition. The presence of Prunella vulgaris, a plant of the Lamiaceae family, is correlated to a decrease in the P. syringae abundances. Reproducibility of this result is currently under investigation in an experimental field. However, preliminary results from the experimental field show that the presence of P. vulgaris in 1-year-old ground covers is not correlated to a decrease in P. syringae abundances. Simultaneous study of ground cover and fruit tree P. syringae communities highlight bacterial exchanges between these two compartments because of the presence of genetically correlated strains in both of them. When present, Psa coexist with other P. syringae, raising the question of the interaction between these strains and their role in the emergence of the disease. Finally, the results highlight a potential antagonism between phylogroups 1 and 2.

Omslag till böcker och DVD-filmer : en jämförande studie av visuell kommunikation i omslagen till Män som hatar kvinnor och Niceville / Covers of Books and DVD-movies : a Comparing Study of Visual Communication in the Covers of Män som hatar kvinnor and Niceville

Lundgren, Helena January 2012 (has links)
This thesis is about covers of books and DVD movies. I have tried to find out if the visual communication of the covers differs between the book and movie with the same story. Do they appeal to different target groups? I have also been trying to find out what designers can do to increase the visibility of covers among others. Are there certain rules to follow for making a cover visible? To reach a conclusion I have been studying components in advertising pictures, since covers work as a kind of advertiser for the product. I have also been studying visual communication and how designers use advertising pictures to communicate with the observer. Semiotics, advertising and comparisons between the covers have been my method for analyze. I have come to the colclusion that covers of books and DVD movies do communicate in different ways and partly to different target groups. There are certain rules to follow if you want to increase the visibility of a picture among others. The results indicate that the book covers have an older target group than the DVD covers.

”Det verkar som man helst vill vara någon som är blond, smal och glad” : En komparativ studie av två olika chefredaktörers versioner av Veckorevyn

Sivac, Vedrana, Svensson, Sandra January 2008 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to compare the contents, editorials and front covers of Sweden’s oldest girl’s magazine Veckorevyn during two different years, in which the magazine had two very different chief editors. In the year 2000, Emma Hamberg got the job as editor-in-chief for Veckorevyn, with a vision of changing the way the magazine represented young females. She wanted to add a more feminist viewpoint to the magazine, since she felt that Veckorevyn didn’t live up to its claim of being “a girl’s best friend”. Six years later, the famous Swedish fashion editor Ebba von Sydow became editor-in-chief for Veckorevyn, with the intention of making the magazine better, smarter and more fun for young girls. Her ambition was also to add more features about career and affordable fashion, since she felt that those topics were important for young women of today. Since these two editor-in-chiefs wanted to do so different things with Veckorevyn, we found it interesting to try to pinpoint what their differences and similarities as editors-in-chief were and how this was reflected in the magazines. The methods used were quantitative content analysis and qualitative text analysis, together with a comparative analysis between the two annual volumes. We also did interviews with the two former editors-in-chiefs, Emma Hamberg and Ebba von Sydow to get a clearer image of what they wanted to do with the magazine and how well they thought that they reached their goals. As guidelines for the study, we used theories about the survival techniques used by female journalists, feminism, personification, the male gaze and the female gaze. We found that the two versions of Veckorevyn were similar in which subjects they chose to write about. Both versions had a content based mostly on fashion, beauty, and celebrities. However, we found a noticeable difference in how they wrote about these subjects. Other differences were found in how the editorials were written, and in the choice of what kind of people got to appear on the front covers.

Návrh přední časti trupu letounu TL-4000 a zástavby motoru / Design of fore part of fuselage and engine mounting of TL-4000 aircraft

Löffelmann, František January 2014 (has links)
The thesis solves mounting of Continental IO-55ON to four-seat all composite aeroplane. Weight analysis of weights carried by engine mounting was done and loads of mounting and nose gear attached directly to mounting was computed according to CS-23 regulation. Mounting was designed based on affordable information about similar aeroplanes and it was sized due to Nastran/Patran system strength analysis. Further reinforcing of fire wall, engine covers and forms for their manufacture was suggested.
