To comprehend the Brazilian architectural production post-1964, in those years of the 1980s, became a significant mission to reactivate the Brazilian architectural debate weakened by the military dictatorship. In his doctoral thesis Spadoni (2003) deals with the different ways which characterizes the Brazilian architectural production of the 1970s. Marked by inventiveness, this production was in tune with the modern thinking and in the transition period between the 1970s and the 1980s it synchronized with the international debate about post-modern architecture. Considering Spadoni s doctoral thesis, this work deals with the modern experience observed in the one-family-houses built in the seventies in Jo?o Pessoa. Some modern experiences were not clear outside, to observe it, it was necessary to search for the type of experience into the spatial disposition and of the know-how constructive, because into the appearance some houses not make explicit the use of the modern language. Other observed experiences allude to the repertoire of the Brazilian period in the years 1940s-1960s, to the experience of the modern architecture in S?o Paulo of the 1960s, to the experiences in which the climate of the Northeastern region strongly influenced the architectural conception. We can also find in a reduced number of houses a particular experience: it refers to experiences that expose the constructive doing, which leave the material apparent and apply to the residential type the experience of the industrial pre-fabricated buildings / Em meados da d?cada de 1980, a Revista Projeto publicava o cat?logo Arquitetura Brasileira Atual, com textos de apresenta??o de Hugo Segawa e Ruth Verde Zein, o qual apresentava um corpus de obras e arquitetos atuantes nas d?cadas de 60 e 70. Naqueles anos 1980, compreender a produ??o arquitet?nica brasileira p?s-64 tornava-se uma miss?o significativa para reacender o debate arquitet?nico brasileiro enfraquecido pela ditadura militar. Em sua tese de doutoramento Spadoni (2003) tratou das trajet?rias que caracterizaram a produ??o arquitet?nica brasileira dos anos 1970. Marcada pela inventividade, esta produ??o mantinha-se alinhada com o pensamento moderno e somente na passagem dos anos 1970 para os anos 1980 sintonizava o debate internacional envolto com uma chamada arquitetura p?s-moderna . Tomando como base a tese de Spadoni, este trabalho trata da experi?ncia moderna observada nas habita??es unifamiliares constru?das em Jo?o Pessoa nos anos 1970. Em alguns casos a experi?ncia moderna apresenta-se oculta e para observ?-la ? necess?rio buscar em sua ess?ncia o tipo de experi?ncia, pois na apar?ncia elas n?o se apropriam do vocabul?rio moderno. Outras experi?ncias observadas remetem ao repert?rio do Movimento Moderno do per?odo ?ureo brasileiro dos anos 1940-1960, a express?o do concreto bruto aparente da arquitetura moderna paulista dos anos 60, ou a experi?ncias em que o clima quente e ?mido da Regi?o Nordeste influ?ncia fortemente a concep??o arquitet?nica. Mas tamb?m vamos encontrar um n?mero restrito de casas em que a experi?ncia moderna se distingue das demais. Trata de experi?ncias que exp?e o fazer construtivo, deixando o material aparente e aplicando ao tipo residencial a experi?ncia da pr?-fabrica??o industrial

Cette recherche est consacrée à la plus grande demeure privée du site d'Europos-Doura en Syrie, la résidence du gouverneur Lysias, stratège et épistate de la ville. Ce bâtiment, entièrement dégagé dans les années trente par la mission américano-française de l'Université de Yale, est resté à l'abandon durant un demi-siècle. En reprenant les travaux sur le site, la Mission Franco-Syrienne d'Europos-Doura a fait de la publication de cette résidence l'un de ses objectifs scientifiques. Le cadre historique de cette étude s'étend sur quatre siècles depuis la création de la ville vers 150 av. n. è. jusqu'à la prise de celle-ci par les Sassanides vers 256 de n. è. Première partie : l'histoire, les méthodes et les résultats de l'exploration archéologique du bâtiment par la Mission de Yale, puis la reprise de l'étude, à partir de 2006, en présentant les différents éléments d'analyse mis en place au cours de cette recherche. Deuxième partie : l'étude architecturale de la résidence de Lysias dans son dernier état présente les différents espaces et les éléments architecturaux qui la composent et permet également de déterminer des ensembles aux caractéristiques spécifiques. Troisième partie : l'évolution architecturale de la résidence à travers les différents états qu'elle a connus et la chronologie relative du bâtiment. Quatrième partie : comparaisons avec d'autres monuments semblables du site d'Europos-Doura et les grandes demeures de même période dans l'Orient hellénisé. Conclusion : la résidence de Lysias illustre le caractère particulier de l'architecture de prestige qui s'est développée à Europos-Doura, reflet d'une inspiration locale et de traditions gréco-mésopotamiennes. / This research is dedicated to the largest private house of Europos-Dura in Syria, the Residence of the Governor Lysias, strategos and epistates of the city. This building has been excavated in the Thirties by the American-French expedition of Yale University and has remained abandoned during a half century. lt has never been published. The resumption of work by the French-Syrian expedition in Europos-Dura has made it as one of its scientific objectives. The historical context of this study spans four centuries since the creation of the city around 150 B. C. to the Sasanian siege and the death of the city circa 256 A. D. First part : history, methods and results of the archaeological excavations ofthis building by the Yale expedition and the resumption of the work since 2006, presenting the various elements and orientations of the study set up during this research. Second part : the architectural study of Lysias' Residence in its final state. A description of the different spaces and architectural elements that compose it allows us to identify sectors that have specific functions. Third part : the architectural evolution of the residence through the different states it has known and the relative chronology of the building. Fourth part : comparisons with other similar monuments of Europos-Dura and with other large dwellings of same period in the hellenized Orient. Conclusion : Lysias' Residence shows the uniqueness of the prestigious architecture that developed in Europos-Dura, which is a picture of a local inspiration and of Greco-Mesopotamian traditions.

The present study deals with the selected chapters of a medieval settlement in the territory lying along the middle stream of the river Bystřice in northeastern Bohemia. This area is consistent with the surroundings towns Hořice and Miletín. Introductory section evaluates the material and written sources. The main part of the study devoted to the development settlement is divided into several basic sections. Because of declining value of archaeological findings, came mostly from fieldwalking is put emphasis mainly on the study of Early and early Middle Ages. Before 13th century early medieval settlement did not beyond the boundaries old settled area. On several of early medieval settlements is documented continuity of settlement dating back to the 13th century, when most of settlements were abandoned. In the 13th century also were created an absolutely new settlement, which is located near the old sites, or in areas where early medieval sites were not recorded. Most of these sites disappeared at the end of the 13th century or the early 14th century. In the vicinity of these sites we often found present villages. Other sections deal with the issue of churches, cemeteries and deserted medieval villages with an emphasis on residences of the landowners. Part of the study is a catalog of all medieval...

Vítězslav Prchal War, Arms, and Armour in the Representative Strategies of Bohemian and Moravian Aristocracy, 1550-1750 dissertation thesis, 2012 In Czech historical writing, history of aristocracy has been on a rise ever since the turbulent days of 1990s. It has always been characterized by application of various methods borrowed form different other fields, such as cultural or social history as well as historical anthropology, and its primary goal was to understand the mentality of the specific social class that is early modern aristocracy. Throughout time, several approaches emerged form the initial probing: first, study of political culture and power; second, study of aristocratic courts and residences; and, third, study of aristocratic family and its life-cycle. All this research was originally focused on 16th century aristocracy; however, it also successfully tackles topics of late 17th and 18th century in recent years as well. Study of aristocratic residences especially has quite a long tradition in Czech historiography, following the lines of socially interpreted art history. On the other hand, as military history is a rather neglected part of writing on the early modern era, this problem transpires into the connection of warfare and aristocracy in 16th to 18th century. For example, not...

The chosen solution is based on a significant element of the axis intersecting the studied area and allows for new possibilities and throughput bottlenecks as well as the needs of indigenous residents. The new structure is compact but permeable, is one of total serenity set into court. Buildings define its own square on which the park. Living rooms are oriented to this element, as generated by the spontaneous dvorcům compared to the other, where we are going gardens. Old and new buildings mainly divided foliage, to a greater extent original. Height was chosen so that does not diaphragm the existing development and that the occupant was still in touch with events in the street. Distance from the neighboring area is sufficient for satisfactory insolation. The appearance of buildings and facades in the treatment of natural materials give a greater sense of coziness.

<p> This study examines the problem of "rurbanization," which is a term that has been applied to the process by which rural areas are being changed by urban influences. This implies more than the traditional geographic concept of land-use change at the rural-urban fringe, but is concerned with bagic changes in the agricultural industry relating to appearance, land use, nengity and social structure.</p> <p> In rural Southern Ontario, there are two main phenomena occurring to effect these changes: the increage in part-time farming and in low-density residences. This study is concerned more specifically with an examination of these two phenomena. Its two main objectives are to gee how these two are interrelated and how they have affected agriculture and rural society. </p> <p> The study achieveg thege objectives through the use of a questionnaire admtnigtered to residents of Brantford township, a rural area with a thriving agricultural industry, but at the same time under considerable stress from urban pressures. Three types of residents were surveyed: full- time farmers, part-time farmers and non-farmers. The data collected was subjected to discriminant and cross-tabulation analyses in order to observe similarities and differences among the three groups . These similarities and differences allowed inferences concerning the acceptance or rejection of six postulated hypotheses. </p> <p> The following general conclusions result from the analysis: </p> <p> Part-time farmers and rural non-farmers are predominantly former urbanites who have migrated to rural areas. Both groups share similar occupations and have lived at the rural location for a similar length of time, but non-farmers tend to be older an to have been born and raised on a farm. However, there does exist a significant minority of part-time farmers who ere former full-time farmers. Both phenomena appear to be fairly permanent arrangements as the overwhelming majority of both groups wished to maintain their present status. </p> <p>Full-time farmers tend to have a larger size of holding than part-time farmers. Part-time farmers place less emphasis on livestock and tobacco as the predominant crop than do full-time farmers, and tend to place a greater emphasis upon corn and mixed grains as cash crops. The type and quality of land that is occupied and the attitude toward the preservation of agricultural land do not vary significantly by group. All three groups were strongly in favour of preservation of land for farming. The participation rates of part time and non farmers in the rural organizations of the township and in the urban organizations of nearby towns are not significantly different from those of full-time farmers. </p> <p> The study has confirmed some of the findings of other researchers and has in turn shed some new light on the "rurbanization" problem. Urban out-migration has been found to be the most important cause of the problem. Thus, the problem appears to be the result of a social phenomenon rather than a physical one, and the phenomena causing the problem appear to be persistent and permanent. It may also be noted that the choice of alternative, either part-time farming or non-farming residency, is somehow related to the age and location of birth and childhood of the urban out-migrant. Significantly, more part-time farmers were born in city and more non-farmers were born on a farm. It may be argued that is precisely opposite to the situation that might be expected. / Thesis / Bachelor of Arts (BA)

O trabalho visa desenvolver uma metodologia para avaliar o impacto do emprego das tecnologias de percepção de uso no ambiente residencial quanto às reduções da demanda por energia elétrica e emissões de CO2. Tais tecnologias são: eliminador de stand-by, gerenciador de energia em computadores e sensor de presença. Inicialmente são selecionadas cargas residenciais e coletados seus dados para compor um banco de dados que será utilizado nas análises. Cada carga e conjunto destas recebe a tecnologia adequada, sendo então calculado o consumo evitado e o investimento relacionado. Foram criados perfis de funcionamento das cargas (6, 8 e 10h) para reproduzir diferentes comportamentos dos usuários e cenários de utilização das cargas (A, B e C) para a análise de sensibilidade. Foram feitos estudos de caso com diferentes modelos residenciais, sendo calculados: consumo e demanda de energia evitados e redução de emissões (considerando um conjunto de residências similares). Também foi realizada a análise de viabilidade econômica da implantação, considerando o Custo Marginal de Expansão do setor elétrico (visão do investidor em infraestrutura) e as tarifas de energia elétrica (visão do consumidor). Os resultados apontam para uma contribuição relevante, em termos de eficiência energética, do emprego de tais tecnologias, representando 35 a 85 MW evitados e redução de emissões de 59 a 145 mil tCO2/ano, dependendo do tipo de modelo residencial adotado, considerando a cidade de São Paulo. A análise de viabilidade econômica por payback simples apontou os seguintes retornos de investimento: 7,2 a 15,5 anos e 2,3 a 7,4 anos para o investidor em infraestrutura e consumidor, respectivamente, dependendo do modelo residencial. Já a análise por Custo da Energia Economizada (CEE) apontou a viabilidade para o consumidor em todos os modelos residenciais, exceto o de tarifa social. Desta forma, o emprego de tais tecnologias pode contribuir de forma importante com a postergação da expansão da matriz energética, resultando em redução de investimentos em expansão e das emissões de CO2 relacionados à geração de energia elétrica, além de poder representar economia na conta de energia dos moradores. / This study aims to develop a methodology to evaluate the utilization impact of the use perception technologies in residential environment in reducing the demand for electricity and CO2 emissions. These technologies are: standby killer, power manager for computers and presence sensor. Initially, residential loads are selected and their data is collected to compose a database that will be used in the analyzes. Each load and load group receives the appropriate technology and then are calculated the avoided consumption and the acquisition investment of the technology. Loads operational profiles (6, 8 and 10h) were created to represent user behaviors and loads usage scenarios (A, B and C) were created to conduct a sensitivity analysis. Case studies were carried out with different residential models, where were calculated: avoided electricity consumption and electric energy demand and CO2 emission reduction (considering a set of similar residences). Also, it was conducted the analysis of economic implantation viability, considering the Expansion Marginal Cost of the electric sector (infrastructure investor view) and the electric energy rates (customer view). The results point out to a relevant contribution, in terms of energy efficiency, of the utilization of such technologies, representing 35 to 85 MW of avoided demand and emission reductions of 59 to 145 thousand tCO2, per year, depending on the residential model type adopted, considering Sao Paulo city region. The analysis of economic implantation viability by payback point out the following investments returns: from 7.2 to 15.5 years and from 2.3 to 7.4 years to infrastructure investor and customer, respectively, depending on the residence model. The analysis by Cost of Saved Energy point out the implementation viability for the costumer in all residential models, except the social tariff. Thus, the use of such technologies can significantly contribute to the postponement of the energetic matrix expansion, resulting in reduction of expansion investments and of CO2 related to electric energy generation, besides can represent savings in the residents energy bill.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Flávia Figueira de Andrade Porto.pdf: 933698 bytes, checksum: 54b857f57d2d2e816fad00c57178fa90 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-03-15 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The de-hospitalization of people with a long-term history in psychiatric hospitals is a priority among public mental health policies in Brazil, which consider the rupture of family and social life aggravating the process of psychic illness. In order to provide care for these people outside the hospitals, health facilities were created, such as therapeutic residences, community-based housing with the assistance of daily caregivers. This work was the result of the professional experience of the psychologist accompanying the dehospitalization of thirty patients to three new therapeutic residences in the city of São José dos Campos / SP. Based on Winnicott's psychoanalysis, this research described and analyzed the experience of de-hospitalization and health promotion in this context, with emphasis on the group interactions and experiences of the residents in the hospital and residential space, in care and community relations. The instruments used were: participant observation and interview based on a previously elaborated script with the residents. The results indicated that the interactions and experiences in the therapeutic residency, for the most part, were kept rigid by rules and restrictions in the occupation of the home space, handling of personal belongings and circulation in the community; The care relationships demanded an active presence of the care agents, especially in the attention to the body, in the management of psychopathological symptoms and in the mediation of conflicts with the neighborhood and other people in the community. It was concluded that care relationships, even in de-hospitalization circumstances, can trap subjects and inhibit creative processes, as well as repercussions in the prevention of acute psychotic crisis and rehospitalization. The challenge in promoting health in therapeutic residency was to overcome situations that make it impossible for the residents to be in life with all their excesses, particularities and needs of attention and adapted care. / A desospitalização de pessoas com história de longa permanência em hospitais psiquiátricos é prioridade dentre as políticas públicas de saúde mental no Brasil, que consideram a ruptura do convívio familiar e social, agravantes no processo de adoecimento psíquico. Para dar conta do atendimento a essas pessoas fora dos hospitais, foram criados equipamentos de saúde como as residências terapêuticas, moradias localizadas na comunidade com assistência de agentes de cuidados diários. Este trabalho foi fruto da experiência profissional do psicólogo acompanhando a desospitalização de trinta pacientes para três novas residências terapêuticas na cidade de São José dos Campos/SP. A partir da psicanálise winnicottiana, esta pesquisa descreveu e analisou a experiência de desospitalização e de promoção da saúde neste contexto, com ênfase nas interações grupais e vivências dos moradores no espaço hospitalar e residencial, nas relações de cuidado e comunitárias. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: observação participante e entrevista com base em um roteiro previamente elaborado, com os moradores. Os resultados apontaram: as interações e vivências na residência terapêutica, em sua maioria, mantiveram-se enrijecidas por regras e restrições na ocupação do espaço da casa, manuseio de pertences pessoais e circulação na comunidade; as relações de cuidado demandaram uma presença ativa dos agentes de cuidado, especialmente, na atenção ao corpo, no manejo de sintomas psicopatológicos e na mediação de conflitos junto à vizinhança e demais pessoas da comunidade. Concluiu-se que as relações de cuidado, mesmo em circunstâncias da desospitalização, podem aprisionar os sujeitos e inibir processos criativos, como também repercutirem na prevenção de crises psicóticas agudas e da reinternação. O desafio na promoção da saúde em residência terapêutica, configurou-se na superação de situações que impossibilitem a seus moradores estarem na vida com todos os seus excessos, particularidades e necessidades de atenção e cuidado adaptado.
