Dům - místo lidské množiny / The House - the Place of Human Family

Adamcová, Veronika January 2012 (has links)
The work deals with the analysis of literary works, where the story takes place inside the house, namely the rental house. This is a very specific area where large number of meetings and encounterings of tenants takes place. This fact brings great potential to create various sub-plots. Chosen literary works are Week in the quiet house and Figures by Jan Neruda, House in the suburb by Karel Polacek and Spring in the house by Jaroslav Havlicek. The work examines what role the house takes in different literary works, how it is displayed and how it is involved in developing the plot and characters.

The Butcher Boy, de Patrick McCabe: no palco e na tela / The Butcher Boy, by Patrick McCabe: on stage and on screen

Cecília Adolpho Martins 26 March 2012 (has links)
Essa pesquisa é a respeito das transposições do romance The butcher boy (1992), de Patrick McCabe, para a peça Frank Pig says hello (1992), por Patrick McCabe, e, para o filme The butcher boy (1997) adaptado e dirigido por Neil Jordan. O objetivo é analisar como o romance aparece no palco e na tela, ou seja, quais técnicas são usadas nas duas representações artísticas. Para tanto, é explorado o conceito de transposição, um tipo específico de adaptação que muda o gênero de uma história; assim como o dialogismo intertextual entre romance e peça e romance e filme. Essa pesquisa procura descobrir não somente como, mas por que as pessoas fazem transposições de uma obra. Será que faltam enredos nos últimos tempos? Ou será que a transposição dá continuidade a um tema que ainda não se esgotou? O trabalho contribuirá com pesquisadores ocupados nos estudos das áreas de Teoria Literária, Literatura, Cinema, Teatro e Literatura Comparada, por exemplo. Na área de Estudos Irlandeses, essa pesquisa contribuirá para o estudo de romances, peças e filmes irlandeses contemporâneos. / This research is about the transpositions of the novel The butcher boy (1992), by Patrick McCabe, to the play Frank Pig says hello (1992), also by Patrick McCabe, and into the movie The butcher boy (1997), adapted and directed by Neil Jordan. The aim is to analyze how the novel appears on stage and on screen, that is, which techniques are used in both artistic representations. To do so, we explore the concept of transposition, a specific type of adaptation that changes the genre of a story, as well as the intertextual dialogism between novel and play, and novel and film. This research attempts to find out not only how, but why people make transpositions of pieces of work. Are we now lacking new plots? Or would it be due to the fact that transpositions give continuity to a topic that has not yet run out? This work will give support to researchers within Literary Theory, Literature, Cinema, Theater, and Comparative Literature, for instance. Within Irish Studies, this research will contribute to the study of novels, plays, and contemporary Irish movies.

To this end, we analyzed the characteristics of the physical and chemical properties of materials in the profile; was determined from the free, total, and the crystalline iron and the total chemical ten (10) major oxides by X-ray fluorescence finally, there is the micro morphology organization of materials. The weathering profile presented more than 710 cm of exposed material, with gradual transition horizons: A (0-20 cm), AB (20-60cm), BA (60-110 cm), Bw1 (110-210 cm), Bw2 (210-350 cm), BC (350-470 cm) and CB (470- 540 cm) and C (540 - 710+ cm). The characterization of physical and chemical attributes of the weathering profile showed native soil cover, with features Oxisols red with acric character. The mineralogical analysis of the material indicated weathering stage characterized by partial hydrolysis environment, the monossialitization type. Associating soil and geochemical characteristics, one realizes that it is weathering profile whose evolutionary process is to ferruginization. The results confirm the hypothesis that the surface V was prepared by the action of etchplanation from the lowering of the substrate by isovolumetric loss generating planing. / O presente trabalho verificou o estágio de intemperismo da cobertura superficial para a superfície geomorfológica V, localizado em Clevelândia (PR), no domínio do Planalto das Araucárias. Para tal, analisou-se as características dos atributos físicos e químicos dos materiais no perfil; determinou-se o ferro livre, total e amorfo e a química total dos dez (10) principais óxidos por fluorescência de raios-X e, por fim, verificou-se a organização micromorfológica dos materiais. O perfil de intemperismo apresentou mais de 710 cm de material exposto, com transição gradual de horizontes: A (0 20 cm), AB (20- 60 cm), BA (60 110 cm), Bw1 (110 - 210 cm), Bw2 (210 350 cm), BC (350 470 cm), CB (470- 540 cm) e C (540 710+ cm). A caracterização dos atributos físicos e químicos do perfil de intemperismo mostrou cobertura pedológica autóctone, com características de Latossolo Vermelho Distroférrico com caráter ácrico. A análise mineralógica dos materiais indica estágio de intemperismo avançado, caracterizado pelo ambiente de hidrólise parcial, do tipo monossialitização. Associando caraterísticas pedológicas e geoquímicas, percebe-se que se trata de perfil de intemperismo cujo processo evolutivo é o de ferruginização. Os resultados confirmam a hipótese de que a superfície V foi elaborada pela ação da etchplanação, a partir do rebaixamento do substrato por perda isovolumétrica gerando o aplainamento.

Manejo do terceiro período do parto e suas repercussões no puerpério / Management of the third stage of labor and its repercussions on puerperium

Mariana Torreglosa Ruiz 15 January 2008 (has links)
O terceiro período do parto inicia-se após a expulsão do feto e termina com o desprendimento da placenta. A perda sanguínea pós-parto está diretamente associada com o tempo de desprendimento placentário e a contratilidade uterina. A recomendação do manejo ativo do terceiro período do parto pela ICM/FIGO e OMS se pauta nas evidências científicas do seu potencial em reduzir morbimortalidade materna. Este compreende as seguintes intervenções: administração profilática de ocitócitos, após o nascimento do bebê, clampeamento e secção do cordão umbilical precoces; tração controlada do cordão e massagem em fundo uterino, com a finalidade de reduzir a perda sanguínea pós-parto. Objetivo: identificar como é realizado o manejo do terceiro período clínico na condução de partos normais em uma maternidade-escola e analisar os resultados obstétricos no puerpério imediato. Metodologia: A amostra constituiu-se de 142 parturientes. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de observação não participante, respaldada por formulário testado previamente em estudo piloto. Resultados: A dequitação foi espontânea em 98,6% dos partos, com duração média de 8,79 ± 7,48 minutos. O clampeamento e secção precoces do cordão umbilical foram a intervenção mais realizada (93,7%); seguidos pela tração controlada de cordão (87,3%); massagem em fundo uterino (70,4%); contato precoce (52,8%); aleitamento precoce (34,5%); uso de ergotamina (3,5%). A ocitocina foi utilizada apenas como terapêutica adicional após o parto (73,9%), dosagem média de 9,48 ± 9,47 UI. Foram identificadas as seguintes complicações: sangramento em média quantidade (15,5%); curagem (4,2%) e sangramento em grande quantidade (3,5%). Não foi encontrado associação estatisticamente significantes ( teste exato de Fisher ) entre os componentes do manejo ativo e ocorrência de sangramento em média ou grande quantidade. Foi identificado associação significante entre o peso fetal (p= 0,043), e quase significância para a cor branca (p= 0,074) e o sangramento pós-parto. Não foi encontrada associação com outras variáveis independentes. Considerações finais: Embora o manejo ativo do terceiro período do parto apresente evidências científicas sobre sua eficácia, os resultados revelam que ainda persiste resistência em relação à sua aplicação e que muitos dos seus componentes não foram aderidos na instituição estudada, sendo realizado um manejo \"misto\" (componentes do manejo ativo e do manejo expectante). A presença de complicação bem como sua seriedade foi de pequena freqüência. Destacamos a necessidade de continuidade de estudos sobre a temática e especialmente quanto a avaliação objetiva da perda sanguínea e repercussões clínicas no puerpério. / The third stage of labor starts after expulsion of the fetus and ends with the detachment of the placenta. The post-partum blood loss is directly associated to the time of placental detachment and uterine contractility. The active management recommendations for the third stage of labor, issued by ICM/FIGO and WHO, are based on scientific evidence concerning its potential to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality. It encompasses the following interventions: prophylactic administration of oxytocins, after delivery of the baby; early clamping and cutting of the umbilical cord; controlled traction of the cord and massage of the uterine fundus, with the purpose of reducing post-partum blood loss. Objective: to identify the way of managing the third clinical stage of a normal delivery in a teaching maternity hospital and to analyze the obstetric results in the immediate puerperium. Methodology: The sample consisted of 142 women in labor. Data collection was performed by non-participating observation, backed-up by a form previously tested in a pilot study. Results: Afterbirth was spontaneous in 98.6% of the deliveries, with an average duration of 8.79±7.48 minutes. Early clamping and cutting of the umbilical cord were the most frequently performed intervention (93.7%), followed by controlled traction of the cord (87.3%), massage of the uterine fundus (70.4%); early contact (52.8%); early breastfeeding (34.5%); use of ergotamine (3.5%). Oxytocin was used only as an additional therapeutic after delivery (73.9%), at a mean dosage of 9.48±9.47 IU. The following complications were identified: medium-amount bleeding (15.5%); curage (4.2%), and large-amount bleeding (3.5%). No statistically significant association was found (Fisher\'s exact test) between the components of the active management and the occurrence of medium- or large-amount bleeding. A statistically significant association between fetal weight and post-partum bleeding (p=0.043), and an almost significant association between Caucasian ethnicity and post-partum bleeding (p=0.074) were identified. No association with other independent variables was found. Final considerations: Although there is scientific evidence indicating that the active management in the third stage of labor is effective, our results reveal that resistance to adopt it persists and that there was no adhesion to many of its components in the studied institution, where a \"mixed\" management is done (components of the active management and of the passive management). The frequency of complications and their severity were low. We stress the need for further studies on this subject, especially regarding an objective evaluation of blood loss and its clinical repercussions during the puerperium.

Behaviour of settling coral reef fishes and supplementary management tools

Heenan, Adel January 2010 (has links)
Coral reef fish larvae take an active role in selecting their settlement site and sensory cues may help them to orientate during this process. As settlement is a period of transition through which the majority of individuals do not survive, it is often a focal point for the management of coral reef populations, which are of high conservation concern. In this thesis, I used choice tests and in situ techniques to assess the response of settlement-stage larvae to a range of odour, light and acoustic cues and I found that larvae are more selective in their response to sensory stimuli than previously thought. Micro-habitat odours are not likely to be used during settlement orientation, and odour cues may be used to avoid inappropriate settlement sites. The photopositive behaviour of larval fish is likely to match their spectral sensitivity but this proved difficult to assess in situ because of the high amount of spatial and temporal variation in larval distribution. The positive response of settlement-stage fish to played back reef noise is location specific as well as being highly specific to the reef sound recording. To understand whether it might be the composition of reef sound that drives the selective response of larvae to acoustic cues, I took sound recordings while collecting visual data on fish diversity and the behavioural activity of a sound producing, or soniferous, fish species. I found that the variation in intensity of reef noise matches the activity patterns of a soniferous species, and when reef noise is most intense is when visual estimates on the diversity of the reef fish assemblage are decreased. This information provides the basis for understanding how changes in the reef soundscape may effect larval recruitment and has exciting implications for using sound recordings as a method to monitor coral reefs. Finally, I tested the viability of releasing reared larvae to boost depleted populations and found that collecting and holding settlement-stage fish for a week can increase survival, relative to natural settlement. These data demonstrate that applying our knowledge of the settlement behaviour of coral reef fish will make a significant contribution to developing tools for management.

Étude d'inclusions vitreuses dans les olivines des chondres de type I : apport sur la formation de leurs olivines hôtes / Study of glass inclusions in olivines from type I chondrules : insight on the formation of their hosts olivines

Florentin, Léa 10 April 2017 (has links)
Les chondres, témoin des débuts du Système Solaire, ont une origine encore débattue. En particulier, l'origine de leurs olivines est encore mal comprise. Furent-elles formées par processus magmatique ou de condensation ? Héritées ou formées directement dans le chondre ? Pour répondre cette question, une étude chimique détaillée a été réalisée sur des inclusions vitreuses piégées dans les olivines magnésiennes d'Allende (CV3). Des images 3D et des profils chimiques en profondeur des éléments majeurs montrent un comportement chimique similaire à celui d'inclusions magmatiques synthétiques, un argument en faveur d'une origine magmatique. Les inclusions ont ensuite été chauffées à haute température (1 800 °C) grâce à une platine chauffante unique au monde, développée au cours du projet, afin d'étudier le verre homogène. Les teneurs élevées en Na2O des inclusions chauffées montrent que les inclusions évoluent en système fermé et que les olivines se sont formées dans un environnement riche en Na. Du fait de la volatilité du Na à haute température, un tel environnement est difficilement conciliable avec une formation des olivines par condensation ou magmatique au sein des chondres. Ceci suggère donc que les olivines sont héritées. Des mesures de REE ont été réalisées par SIMS dans les inclusions et leurs olivines hôtes afin de calculer le taux de cristallisation nécessaire à la formation de ces olivines. Les compositions chimiques des magmas parents calculés d'après ces taux de cristallisation correspondent à celles attendues d'après les études expérimentales déjà existantes. Celles-ci suggèrent la formation des olivines au sein de planétésimaux fondus de composition CV ou CI / Chondrules, witnesses of the beginning of the Solar System still have a debated origin ti this day. In particular, the origin of chondrules' olivines is still poorly understood. Were they formed by magmatism or condensation processes? Inherited or grown directly within the chondrule? In order to answer this, a detailed chemical study was undertook on glass inclusions trapped in Mg-rich olivines from Allende (CV3) meteorite. 3D images and chemical depth profiles showed a similar behavior between Allende's inclusions and synthetic magmatic ones, which is an argument in favor of a magmatic origin for olivines. Glass inclusions were then heated at high temperature (1 800 °C) via a new and unique heating stage developed during the project, in order to study the homogeneous glasses. High Na2O amounts in heated inclusions show that they behave as closed systems and that olivines formed in a Na-rich environment. Because Na is highly volatile at high temperatures, such an environment is hard to reconcile with olivines forming by condensation or magmatism within chondrules. This suggests that olivines are inherited. Measurements of REE were performed via SIMS in inclusions and hosts olivines in order to calculate the crystallization rates necessary to olivines formation. Chemical compositions of parent magmas, calculated from crystallization rates correspond to those expected from previous experimental studies. They suggest that olivines from chondrules form within molten planetesimals of global CI to CV composition

Euclidean Domains

Tombs, Vandy Jade 01 July 2018 (has links)
In the usual definition of a Euclidean domain, a ring has a norm function whose codomain is the positive integers. It was noticed by Motzkin in 1949 that the codomain could be replaced by any well-ordered set. This motivated the study of transfinite Euclidean domains in which the codomain of the norm function is replaced by the class of ordinals. We prove that there exists a (transfinitely valued) Euclidean Domain with Euclidean order type for every indecomposable ordinal. Modifying the construction, we prove that there exists a Euclidean Domain with no multiplicative norm. Following a definition of Clark and Murty, we define a set of admissible primes. We develop an algorithm that can be used to find sets of admissible primes in the ring of integers of quadratic extensions of the rationals and provide some examples.
