A presente pesquisa trata das questões em torno da fotografia noturna, na confluência entre as linguagens artísticas da ação, do vídeo e da instalação, levando em consideração a comunicabilidade e proposição da experiência da noite. A partir de ações lançadas para a câmara, o deslocamento do corpo à noite é capturado através de fotografia e vídeo para ser apresentado em um ambiente escuro construído para a vivência da noite transfigurada. O processo criativo do trabalho estende-se até a duração da experiência na situação proposta em exposição. / This research deals with the issues that surround night photography in the confluence among the artistic languages of the action, video and installation, also considering the night experience's communicability and proposition. Starting from aimed to the camera actions, the body's displacement at night is captured through photogtaphy and video, to be presented in a disfigured night experience built dark environment. The work's creative process extends up to the experience's duration in the proposed situation under exposition.

Light is seldom addressed in archaeological research, despite the fact that, at least in ancient Egypt, it would have impacted upon all aspects of life. When discussing light in Egyptology, the vast majority of scholarly attention is placed on the sun, the primary source of illumination. In comparison, artificial light receives very little attention, primarily due to a lack of archaeological evidence for lighting equipment prior to the 7th century BC. However, 19th and 20th century lychnological studies have exaggerated this point by placing an overwhelming emphasis on decorated lamps from the Greco-Roman Period. In an attempt to move beyond these antiquarian roots, recent scholarship has turned towards examining the role that light, both natural and artificial, played in aspects of ancient societies’ architecture, ideology and religion. The extensive body of archaeological, textual and iconographic evidence that remains from ancient Egypt is well suited to this type of study and forms three core data sets in this thesis. Combining a materials-based examination of artificial light with a contextualized, theoretical analysis contributes to a richer understanding of ancient Egyptian culture from the 3rd to 1st millennium BC. The first three chapters of this study establish a typology of known artificial lighting equipment, as well as a lexicon of lighting terminology. A comparison of the archaeological and textual evidence allows for a discussion on the consumption of lighting in ancient Egypt and its impact on social and economic spheres. From this material it becomes apparent that artificial light was a luxury and this corresponds to its inclusion in religious texts and iconography, as well as the presence of lighting implements in tombs of the wealthy elite. The second half of the thesis examines the ritual application of artificial light, incorporating iconographic and textual evidence, consideration of ritual space and timing, and experimental archaeology. This interdisciplinary approach allows for a discussion of the sensory experience of artificial lighting and its perceived potency in ancient Egypt. It also demonstrates the contribution that Egyptology can make to lychnological and sensory studies of the ancient Near East and Mediterranean by examining the impact of light on phenomenology and aesthetics.

This work approaches the theme of the double in Dead of Night, as well as the double finds its resonance in other areas, such as literature. The study seeks to verify and identify how the theme of the double appears in the film. Besides the analysis of the film, will be addressed trajectory the director Alberto Cavalcanti, who started his career in French cinema, extending across England and Brazil. The film is the period in which the director worked in England and it was produced in 1945. The work begins with a brief history of the life of Alberto Cavalcanti and his career in the cinema. Then we did a search on the topic double, emphasizing three major authors: Clement Rosset, Otto Rank and Nicole Bravo. The analysis is based on an overview of the film followed by the analysis of five episodes that compose: The Hearse Driver, The Christmas Party, The Haunted Mirror, The Golfing Story and The Ventriloquist's Dummy. The conclusion points to possible readings of this film, that these possibilities are related to the double. / Submitted by Jovina Laurentino Raimundo (jovina.raimundo@unisul.br) on 2017-10-23T16:58:40Z No. of bitstreams: 1 107697_Walterson.pdf: 1137232 bytes, checksum: 3f0b21a30de98c271b9d5001e01dba9f (MD5) / Approved for entry into archive by Fabiane dos Santos (fabiane.santos3@unisul.br) on 2017-10-23T16:59:01Z (GMT) No. of bitstreams: 1 107697_Walterson.pdf: 1137232 bytes, checksum: 3f0b21a30de98c271b9d5001e01dba9f (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2017-10-23T16:59:01Z (GMT).

Utilizou-se a abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa, com questionários e entrevistas semi-estruturadas como instrumentos de coleta, com a finalidade de conhecer a trajetória escolar, a visão da futura profissão, bem como os dilemas e as dificuldades enfrentadas durante o curso, partindo-se do pressuposto de que esses alunos oriundos em sua maioria de escolas públicas, têm se constituído na clientela majoritária dos cursos de licenciatura das faculdades privadas. Buscou-se verificar os saberes presentes no processo de formação inicial desses alunos e de que maneira se dá a relação entre estes saberes, o processo de construção da identidade e o desenvolvimento profissional. A análise dos dados mostrou que os alunos têm deficiências anteriores de conteúdos matemáticos, possuindo dificuldade e insegurança em relação aos saberes didáticos e curriculares, devido à conciliação entre estudo e trabalho. Revelam imagens positivas e coerentes com relação à futura profissão, que podem influenciar no desenvolvimento profissional. Verificou-se também a necessidade de reflexão dos órgãos governamentais responsáveis, ao implementarem novas medidas nesta área de formação inicial. / Abstract: The purpose of this research is to identify and verify how the integration and complementation of night worker students' previous educational knowledge takes place in a Mathematics Licensure course. The methodology used has a qualitative research approach, with the use of questionnaires to gather data, and semi-structured interviews to get to know the school trajectory of the students and their view of the future profession, as well as the dilemmas and difficulties they have gone through, taking into consideration that most of these students come from public schools and represent a major group in private college licensure courses. The work also tries to verify which kind of knowledge was present in their previous education, and the ways it relates to their identity formation process and professional development. The data analysis showed that the students have previous deficiencies of mathematical contents, and that they have difficulty and insecurity related to didactical and curricular knowledge due to conciliation between study and work. The data also reveal positive and coherent images concerning the future profession which can have influence over the professional development. A need of reflection by the responsible governmental organs was also identified, so that new measures in this area of initial formation can be implemented. / Mestre

Participaram da pesquisa um total de (n=76) sujeitos, (n=50 turno noturno e n=26 turno diurno), distribuídos nas seguintes categorias: enfermeiros, auxiliares de enfermagem e técnicos de enfermagem, que trabalhavam no Hospital das Clinicas da Universidade Estadual de Campinas. A idade média foi de 42 anos. O horário de trabalho do turno noturno era das 19h00min até às 07h00min do dia seguinte e do turno diurno, das 07h00min às 13h00min ou das 13h00min até às 19h00min. Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta de dados foram: o diário de sono (coletado durante 30 dias); questionário de informações pessoais; uma balança para pesagem e mensuração da altura para o cálculo do índice de massa corporal (IMC), e para classificar o IMC utilizou-se a tabela de BRAY (1998). Os dados do peso foram coletados em dois momentos caracterizados por peso 1, altura 1 e IMC 1 do registro da Divisão de Segurança e Saúde Ocupacional da UNICAMP, correspondendo ao controle de saúde do trabalho no período de 2003. O segundo momento em 2005, correspondendo ao peso 2, altura 2 e IMC 2. Os resultados da análise dos padrões do sono dos grupos diurno e noturno mostraram dados estatisticamente significantes (Teste de Mann-Whitney) para a latência do sono (p=<0,001), horário de acordar (p=<0,001), duração do sono noturno (p=0,002), qualidade do sono noturno (p=0,009) e presença de cochilos (p=0,001). Constatou-se pelo teste de correlação de Spearman que houve diferença significativa estatisticamente. (r=-0,296; p=0,0366) dado que, conforme aumenta a freqüenta da prática de atividade física, diminui a diferença de peso e IMC. Comparando os resultados do aumento de peso associados com o tempo de trabalho em turno noturno observou-se que não houve diferença significativa pelo teste Mann-Whitney (p=0,302), no entanto, os valores das médias do tempo de trabalho dos grupos de redução e aumento de peso mostraram diferenças (11,18 anos e 13,87 anos respectivamente). Verifcou-se que os sujeitos do grupo do turno noturno apresentaram média de IMC maior em comparação ao grupo diurno com diferenças estatisticamente significantes (teste Mann- Whitney). Entretanto,não se pode afirmar que as alterações de sono estiveram presentes influenciando o ganho de peso no grupo do noturno / Abstract: The main goals of this work were: evaluate the individuals? characteristics of the sleep-wake cycle compare the variation in weight, in the period of two years, among individuals working in the day-shift and in the night-shift; investigate the existence of any relationship between the working time in the night-shift and change in weight and BMI as well as investigate any relationship between change in weight and BMI and the variables of the sleep-wake cycle which in this study are taken as latency, quality of sleep in the night, sleep duration and napping. This research counted on a number of participants of (n=76) people, (n=50 of the night-shift and n=26 of the day-shift), from several distinct professions: nurses, nursing technician and nurses aides that worked in the Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade Estadual de Campinas. The average age of the group was 42 years. The working time of the night-shift was from 19h00min to 07h00min of the following day, and the working time of the day-shift was from 07h00min to 13h00min or from 13h00min to 19h00min. The instrumentation used to collect the date was: the diary of sleep (which was filled in with data for 30 consecutive days); questionnaire on personal information related to life style; a balance to measure weight and height to get data for BMI calculation, and the BRAY (1998) table to classify the BMI. The data related to weight were collected in two distinct points in time; the first instant is represented by weight-1, height-1 and BMI-1 of the records from Occupational Health and Safety Division at UNICAMP, respective to the Labor Health control of the period of 2003. The second instant, in 2005, is represented by weight-2, height-2 and BMI-2. The results of the analysis of the night- shift group and day-shift group sleep patterns lead to data statistically significative (Mann-Whitney test) for the latency of sleep (p=<0,001), wake up time (p=<0,001), night sleep duration (p=0,002), night sleep quality (p=0,009), and occurrence of napping (p=0,001). It was found through the test of correlation of Spearman that there was a statistically significant difference (r=-0,296; p=0,0366), given that the difference in weight and the IMC decrease as it increases the frequency of physical activity. From the comparison among the results of the weight increase associated with time of work in the night-shift, it was noticed that there was not significant difference by means of the test of Mann-Whitney (p=0,302), however, the average time of work of the groups with weight reduction and with weight increase showed differences: (11,18 years and 13,87 years respectively). It was noticed that the individuals from the group of night-shift lead to average IMC higher than the ones from the group of day-shift with statistically significant differences (test of Mann-Whitney). However, it was not identified any reason to support the statement that the altered sleep was present and that influenced the weight increase in the group of night-shift / Doutorado / Enfermagem e Trabalho / Doutor em Enfermagem

Os objetivos foram: verificar a presença de queixas relativas ao sono, comparar a qualidade subjetiva do sono, identificar o padrão habitual de sono dos sujeitos antes e após a realização da ginástica laboral. Esse estudo foi quantitativo e observacional. Instrumentos utilizados: Ficha de Identificação, Questionário de Sono, Diário do Sono, Índice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh e Questionário da Ginástica Laboral. O programa de ginástica laboral era composto por exercícios de alongamento, massagem e atividades lúdicas. Foram realizadas quarenta aulas, às 2ª, 4ª e 6ª feiras, durante três meses. As aulas tinham a duração de quinze minutos e cada exercício físico trinta segundos. A população estudada foi constituída por 17 trabalhadores do turno noturno, dez mulheres e sete homens; 41,1% pertenciam à faixa etária de 26 a 30 anos, 58,8% optaram por trabalhar nesse turno e 82,3% não pretendiam mudar de turno de trabalho. Resultados após a realização da ginástica laboral: melhora na qualidade do sono, alteração no padrão do sono, diminuição do tempo de latência para o sono e dos cochilos. A maior parte dos trabalhadores do turno noturno referiu melhora do seu bem-estar diário, do sono e do seu estilo de vida. Concluímos que a ginástica laboral associada a um programa de exercícios físicos pode diminuir os efeitos colaterais advindos do turno noturno / Abstract: The present study analyzed the effects of the stretch break on complaints associated to the sleep of night shift workers in a plastic manufacturing company in Sorocaba-SP. The purposes were: checking the existence of complaints associated to sleep, comparing the sleep subjective quality, identifying the habitual sleep pattern of the subjects before and after the participation in the stretch break program. This study was a quantitative and observational one. Instruments utilized: Identification card, Sleep Questionnaire, Sleep Diary, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Stretch Break Questionnaire. The stretch break program was made by stretching exercises, massage and entertainment activities. Forty sessions were performed on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, for three months. The classes were fifteen minutes long when each exercise lasted for thirty seconds. The population studied was made of 17 night shift workers, 10 women and 7 men; 41,1% belonged to the 26 to 30 year old age bracket, 58,8% chose to work this shift and 82,3% have no intention to change shifts. Results after the workplace exercise sessions: Improvements in the sleep quality, sleep pattern alteration, decrease in the sleep latency time and number of naps. Most of the night shift workers reported an improvement in their daily well-being, sleep quality and life style. We concluded that stretch breaks, associated to a program of physical exercises, can decrease the side effects resultant from the night shift / Mestrado / Enfermagem e Trabalho / Mestre em Enfermagem

This thesis examines if and how the Internet viewers of Saturday Night Live skits were influenced by the video skits. the viewers’ online comments were read, categorized and analyzed for content to explore and discuss how the viewers “read” the text of the online video skits. Each video in which candidates John McCain, Sarah Palin, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama appeared is summarized and analyzed through viewers’ comments. a sample of skits including actors’ portrayals of McCain, Palin, Clinton, Obama and Joe Biden is also summarized and analyzed to find and discuss how the viewers’ perceptions were influenced by the portrayals.

This study is the result of tests conducted to determine the adaptability of the human eye to darkness.

abstract: There are significantly higher rates of pilot error events during surface operations at night than during the day. Events include incidents, accidents, wrong surface takeoffs and landings, hitting objects, turning on the wrong taxiway, departing the runway surface, among others. There is evidence to suggest that these events are linked to situational awareness. Improvements to situational awareness can be accomplished through training to instruct pilots to increase attention outside of the cockpit while taxiing at night. However, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) night time requirements are relatively low to obtain a private pilot certification. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of flight training experience on conducting safe and incident-free surface operations at night, collect pilot opinions on night training requirements and resources, and analyze the need for night time on flight reviews. A survey was distributed to general aviation pilots and 239 responses were collected to be analyzed. The responses indicated a higher observed incident rate at night than during the day, however there were no significant effects of night training hours or type of training received (Part 61, Part 141/142, or both) on incident rate. Additionally, higher total night hours improved pilot confidence at night and decreased incident rate. The overall opinions indicated that FAA resources on night flying were effective in providing support, but overall pilots were not in support of or against adding night time requirements to flight reviews and found night training requirements to be somewhat effective. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Aerospace Engineering 2020
