Dispositivos contemporáneos ante el reto del neomadismo

Cuatro dispositivos. Cuatro golpes de vista deteniéndonos sobre aspectos de la realidad contemporánea en los que juzgamos pertinente reparar. Usuarios transeúntes a través de los locutorios[D1], entornos dinámicos mediante la sucesión ecológica[D2], sistema de gestión de la propiedad obsoleto ante la realidad de flujos económicojurídicos[D3] y estructuras topológicas electromagnéticas que permiten desplazarnos con unos mínimos comunes[D4]. Modelos transdisciplinares muy directos elegidos por su efectividad ante la inestabilidad, arquetipos de los que tendremos que transferir claves a nuestra disciplina. ABSTRACT. Four devices.

Transient users across the phone booths[D1], dynamic environments through the ecological succession[D2], obsolete property management system facing the reality of financial and law flows[D3] and topological electromagnetic structures that allow our displacements with a few common minimums[D4]. Very direct transdisciplinary models chosen by their efficiency with the instability, archetypes from which we will have to transfer keys to our discipline

Configuración de un entorno de trabajo para el desarrollo de software ágil con integración continua

Hoy en día, existen numerosos sistemas (financieros, fabricación industrial, infraestructura de servicios básicos, etc.) que son dependientes del software. Según la definición de Ingeniería del Software realizada por I. Sommerville, “la Ingeniería del Software es una disciplina de la ingeniería que comprende todos los aspectos de la producción de software desde las etapas iniciales de la especificación del sistema, hasta el mantenimiento de éste después de que se utiliza.” “La ingeniería del software no sólo comprende los procesos técnicos del desarrollo de software, sino también actividades tales como la gestión de proyectos de software y el desarrollo de herramientas, métodos y teorías de apoyo a la producción de software.” Los modelos de proceso de desarrollo software determinan una serie de pautas para poder desarrollar con éxito un proyecto de desarrollo software. Desde que surgieran estos modelos de proceso, se investigado en nuevas maneras de poder gestionar un proyecto y producir software de calidad. En primer lugar surgieron las metodologías pesadas o tradicionales, pero con el avance del tiempo y la tecnología, surgieron unas nuevas llamadas metodologías ágiles. En el marco de las metodologías ágiles cabe destacar una determinada práctica, la integración continua. Esta práctica surgió de la mano de Martin Fowler, con el objetivo de facilitar el trabajo en grupo y automatizar las tareas de integración. La integración continua se basa en la construcción automática de proyectos con una frecuencia alta, promoviendo la detección de errores en un momento temprano para poder dar prioridad a corregir dichos errores. Sin embargo, una de las claves del éxito en el desarrollo de cualquier proyecto software consiste en utilizar un entorno de trabajo que facilite, sistematice y ayude a aplicar un proceso de desarrollo de una forma eficiente. Este Proyecto Fin de Grado (PFG) tiene por objetivo el análisis de distintas herramientas para configurar un entorno de trabajo que permita desarrollar proyectos aplicando metodologías ágiles e integración continua de una forma fácil y eficiente. Una vez analizadas dichas herramientas, se ha propuesto y configurado un entorno de trabajo para su puesta en marcha y uso. Una característica a destacar de este PFG es que las herramientas analizadas comparten una cualidad común y de alto valor, son herramientas open-source. El entorno de trabajo propuesto en este PFG presenta una arquitectura cliente-servidor, dado que la mayoría de proyectos software se desarrollan en equipo, de tal forma que el servidor proporciona a los distintos clientes/desarrolladores acceso al conjunto de herramientas que constituyen el entorno de trabajo. La parte servidora del entorno propuesto proporciona soporte a la integración continua mediante herramientas de control de versiones, de gestión de historias de usuario, de análisis de métricas de software, y de automatización de la construcción de software. La configuración del cliente únicamente requiere de un entorno de desarrollo integrado (IDE) que soporte el lenguaje de programación Java y conexión con el servidor. ABSTRACT Nowadays, numerous systems (financial, industrial production, basic services infrastructure, etc.) depend on software. According to the Software Engineering definition made by I.Sommerville, “Software engineering is an engineering discipline that is concerned with all aspects of software production from the early stages of system specification through to maintaining the system after it has gone into use.” “Software engineering is not just concerned with the technical processes of software development. It also includes activities such as software project management and the development of tools, methods, and theories to support software production.” Software development process models determine a set of guidelines to successfully develop a software development project. Since these process models emerged, new ways of managing a project and producing software with quality have been investigated. First, the so-called heavy or traditional methodologies appeared, but with the time and the technological improvements, new methodologies emerged: the so-called agile methodologies. Agile methodologies promote, among other practices, continuous integration. This practice was coined by Martin Fowler and aims to make teamwork easier as well as automate integration tasks. Nevertheless, one of the keys to success in software projects is to use a framework that facilitates, systematize, and help to deploy a development process in an efficient way. This Final Degree Project (FDP) aims to analyze different tools to configure a framework that enables to develop projects by applying agile methodologies and continuous integration in an easy and efficient way. Once tools are analyzed, a framework has been proposed and configured. One of the main features of this FDP is that the tools under analysis share a common and high-valued characteristic: they are open-source. The proposed framework presents a client-server architecture, as most of the projects are developed by a team. In this way, the server provides access the clients/developers to the tools that comprise the framework. The server provides continuous integration through a set of tools for control management, user stories management, software quality management, and software construction automatization. The client configuration only requires a Java integrated development environment and network connection to the server.

1950 En torno al Museo Louisiana 1970

La tesis “1950 En torno al Museo Louisiana 1970” analiza varias obras relacionadas con el espacio doméstico, que se realizaron entre 1950 y 1970 en Dinamarca, un periodo de esplendor de la Arquitectura Moderna. Tras el aislamiento y restricciones del conflicto bélico que asoló Europa, los jóvenes arquitectos daneses, estaban deseosos por experimentar nuevas ideas de procedencia internacional, favorecidos por diferentes circunstancias, encuentran el mejor campo de ensayo en el espacio doméstico. La mejor arquitectura doméstica en Dinamarca, de aquel periodo, debe entenderse como un sistema compuesto por diferentes autores, que tienen en común muchas más similitudes que diferencias, se complementan unos a otros. Para la comprensión y el entendimiento de ello se hace necesario el estudio de varias figuras y edificios, que completen este sistema cuya investigación está escasamente desarrollada. La tesis propone un viaje para conocer los nombres de algunos de sus protagonistas, que mostraron con su trabajo, que tradición y vanguardia no estarán reñidas. El objetivo es desvelar las claves de la Modernidad Danesa, reconocer, descubrir y recuperar el legado de algunos de sus protagonistas en el ámbito doméstico, cuya lección se considera de total actualidad. Una arquitectura que asume las aportaciones extranjeras con moderación y crítica, cuya íntima relación con la tradición arquitectónica y la artesanía propias, será una de sus notas especiales. Del estudio contrastado de varios proyectos y versiones, se obtienen valores comunes entre sus autores, al igual que se descubren sus afinidades o diferencias respecto a los mismos asuntos; que permitirán comprender sus actuaciones según las referencias e influencias, y definir las variables que configuran sus espacios arquitectónicos. La línea de conexión entre los edificios elegidos será su particular relación con la naturaleza y el lugar en que se integran. La fachada, lugar donde se negociará la relación entre el interior y el paisaje, será un elemento entendido de un modo diferente en cada uno de ellos, una relación que se extenderá en todas ellas, más allá de su perímetro. La investigación se ha estructurado en seis capítulos, que van precedidos de una Introducción. En el capítulo primero, se estudian y se señalan los antecedentes, las figuras y edificios más relevantes de la Tradición Danesa, para la comprensión y el esclarecimiento de algunas de las claves de su Modernidad en el campo de la Arquitectura, que se produce con una clara intención de encontrar su propia identidad y expresión. Esta Modernidad floreciente se caracteriza por la asimilación de otras culturas extranjeras desde la moderación, con un punto de vista crítico, y encuentra sus raíces ancladas a la tradición arquitectónica y la artesanía propia, que fragua en la aparición de un ideal común con enorme personalidad y que hoy se valora como una auténtica aportación de una cultura considerada entonces periférica. Se mostrará el debate y el camino seguido por las generaciones anteriores, a las obras análizadas. Las sensibilidades por lo vernáculo y lo clásico, que aparentemente son contradictorias, dominaran el debate con la misma veracidad y respetabilidad. La llamada tercera generación por Sigfried Giedion reanudará la práctica entre lo clásico y lo vernáculo, apoyados en el espíritu del trabajo artesanal y de la tradición, con el objetivo de conocer del acto arquitectónico su “la verdad” y “la esencia original”. El capítulo segundo, analiza la casa Varming, de 1953, situada en un área residencial de Gentofte, por Eva y Nils Koppel, que reinterpreta la visión de Asplund de un paisaje interior continuación del exterior, donde rompen la caja de ladrillo macizo convencional propia de los años 30. Es el ejemplo más poderoso de la unión de tradición e innovación en su obra residencial. Sus formas sobrias entre el Funcionalismo Danés y la Modernidad se singularizarán por su abstracción y volúmenes limpios que acentúan el efecto de su geometría, prismática y brutalista. El desplazamiento de los cuerpos que lo componen, unos sobre otros, generan un ritmo, que se producirá a otras escalas, ello unido a las variaciones de sus formas y a la elección de sus materiales, ladrillo y madera, le confieren a la casa un carácter orgánico. El edificio se ancla a la tierra resolviéndose en diferentes niveles tras el estudio del lugar y su topografía. El resultado es una versión construida del paisaje, en la cual el edificio da forma al lugar y ensalza la experiencia del escenario natural. La unidad de las estructuras primitivas, parece estar presente. Constituye un ejemplo de la “La idea de Promenade de Asplund”, el proyecto ofrece diferentes recorridos, permitiendo su propia vivencia de la casa, que ofrece la posibilidad vital de decidir. El capítulo tercero trata sobre el pabellón de invitados de Niels Bohr de 1957, situado un área boscosa, en Tisvilde Hegn, fue el primer edificio del arquitecto danés Vilhelm Wohlert. Arraigado a la Tradición Danesa, representa una renovación basada en la absorción de influencias extranjeras: la Arquitectura Americana y la Tradición Japonesa. La caja de madera, posada sobre un terreno horizontal, tiene el carácter sensible de un organismo vivo, siempre cambiante según las variaciones de luz del día o temperatura. Cuando se abre, crea una prolongación del espacio interior, que se extiende a la naturaleza circundante, y se expande hacia el espacio exterior, permitiendo su movilización. Se establece una arquitectura de flujos. Hay un interés por la materia, su textura y el efecto emocional que emana. Las proporciones y dimensiones del edificio están reguladas por un módulo, que se ajusta a la medida del hombre, destacando la gran unidad del edificio. La llave se su efecto estético está en su armonía y equilibrio, que transmiten serenidad y belleza. El encuentro con la naturaleza es la lección más básica del proyecto, donde un mundo de relaciones es amable al ser humano. El capítulo cuarto, analiza el proyecto del Museo Louisiana de 1958, en Humlebæk, primer proyecto de la pareja de arquitectos daneses Jørgen Bo y Vilhelm Wohlert. La experiencia en California de Wohlert donde será visitado por Bo, será trascendental para el desarrollo de Louisiana, donde la identidad Danesa se fusiona con la asimilación de otras culturas, la arquitectura de Frank Lloyd Wright, la del área de la Bahía y la Tradición Japonesa principalmente. La idea del proyecto es la de una obra de arte integral: arquitectura, arte y paisaje, coexistirían en un mismo lugar. Diferentes recursos realzarán su carácter residencial, como el uso de los materiales propios de un entorno doméstico, la realización a la escala del hombre, el modo de usar la iluminación. Cubiertas planas que muestran su artificialidad, parecen flotar sobre galerías acristaladas, acentuarán la fuerza del plano horizontal y establecerán un recorrido en zig-zag de marcado ritmo acompasado. Ritmo que tiene que ver con la encarnación del pulso de la naturaleza, que se acompaña de juegos de luz, y de otras vibraciones materiales a diferentes escalas, imagen, que encuentra una analogía semejante en la cultura japonesa. Todo se coordina con la trama estructural, que conlleva a una construcción y proporción disciplinada. Louisiana atiende al principio de crecimiento de la naturaleza, con la que su conexión es profunda. Hay un dinamismo expresado por el despliegue del edificio, que evoca a algunos proyectos de la Tradición Japonesa. Los blancos muros tienen su propia identidad como formas en sí mismas, avanzan prolongándose fuera de la línea del vidrio, se mueven libremente siguiendo el orden estructural, acompañando al espacio que fluye, en contacto directo con la naturaleza que está en un continuo estado de flujos. Se da todo un mundo de relaciones, donde existe un dialogo entre el paisaje, arte y arquitectura. El capítulo quinto, se dedica a analizar la segunda casa del arquitecto danés Halldor Gunnløgsson, de 1959. Evoca a la Arquitectura Japonesa y Americana, pero es principalmente resultado de una fuerte voluntad y disciplina artística personal. La cubierta, plana, suspendida sobre una gran plataforma pavimentada, que continúa la sección del terreno construyendo de lugar, tiene una gran presencia y arroja una profunda sombra bajo ella. En el interior un espacio único, que se puede dividir eventualmente, discurre en torno a un cuerpo central. El espacio libre fluye, extendiéndose a través de la transparencia de sus ventanales a dos espacios contrapuestos: un patio ajardinado íntimo, que inspira calma y sosiego; y la naturaleza salvaje del mar que proyecta el color del cielo, ambos en constante estado de cambio. El proyecto se elabora de un modo rigurosamente formal, existiendo al mismo tiempo un perfecto equilibrio entre la abstracción de su estructura y su programa. La estructura de madera cuyo orden se extiende más allá de los límites de su perímetro, está formada por pórticos completos como elementos libres, queda expuesta, guardando una estrecha relación con el concepto de modernidad de Mies, equivalente a la arquitectura clásica. La preocupación por el efecto estético es máxima, nada es improvisado. Pero además la combinación de materiales y el juego de las texturas hay una cualidad táctil, cierto erotismo, que flota alrededor de ella. La precisión constructiva y su refinamiento se acercan a Mies. La experiencia del espacio arquitectónico es una vivencia global. La influencia de la arquitectura japonesa, es más conceptual que formal, revelada en un respeto por la naturaleza, la búsqueda del refinamiento a través de la moderación, la eliminación de los objetos innecesarios que distraen de la experiencia del lugar y la preocupación por la luz y la sombra, donde se establece cierto paralelismo con el oscuro mundo del invierno nórdico. Hay un entendimiento de que el espacio, en lugar de ser un objeto inmaterial definido por superficies materiales se entiende como interacciones dinámicas. El capítulo sexto. Propone un viaje para conocer algunas de las viviendas unifamiliares más interesantes que se construyeron en el periodo, que forman parte del sistema investigado. Del estudio comparado y orientado en varios temas, se obtienen diversa conclusiones propias del sistema estudiado. La maestría de la sustancia y la forma será una característica distintiva en Dinamarca, se demuestra que hay un acercamiento a la cultura de Oriente, conceptual y formal, y unos intereses comunes con cierta arquitectura Americana. Su lección nos sensibiliza hacia un sentido fortalecido de proporción, escala, materialidad, textura y peso, densidad del espacio, se valora lo táctil y lo visual, hay una sensibilidad hacia la naturaleza, hacia lo humano, hacia el paisaje, la integridad de la obra. ABSTRACT The thesis “1950 around the Louisiana Museum 1970” analyses several works related to domestic space, which were carried out between 1950 and 1970 in Denmark, a golden age of modern architecture. After the isolation and limitations brought about by the war that blighted Europe, young Danish architects were keen to experiment with ideas of an international origin, encouraged by different circumstances. They find the best field of rehearsal to be the domestic space. The best architecture of that period in Denmark should be understood as a system composed of different authors, who have in common with each other many more similarities than differences, thus complimenting each other. In the interests of understanding, the study of a range of figures and buildings is necessary so that this system, the research of which is still in its infancy, can be completed. The thesis proposes a journey of discovery through the names of some of those protagonists who were showcased through their work so that tradition and avant- garde could go hand in hand. The objective is to unveil the keys to Danish Modernity; to recognise, discover and revive the legacy of some of its protagonists in the domestic field whose lessons are seen as entirely of the present. For an architect, the taking on of modern contributions with both moderation and caution, with its intimate relationship with architectural tradition and its own craft, will be one of his hallmarks. With the study set against several projects and versions, one can derive common values among their authors. In the same way their affinities and differences in respect of the same issue emerge. This will allow an understanding of their measures in line with references and influences and enable the defining of the variables of their architectural spaces. The common line between the buildings selected will be their particular relationship with nature and the space with which they integrate. The façade, the place where the relationship between the interior and the landscape would be negotiated, wouldl be the discriminating element in a distinct way for each one of them. It is through each of these facades that this relationship would extend, and far beyond their physical perimeter. The investigation has been structured into six chapters, preceded by an introduction. The first chapter outlines and analyses the backgrounds, figures and buildings most relevant to the Danish Tradition. This is to facilitate the understanding and elucidation of some of the keys to its modernity in the field of architecture, which came about with the clear intention to discover its own identity and expression. This thriving modernity is characterized by its moderate assimilation with foreign cultures with a critical eye, and finds its roots anchored in architectural tradition and its own handcraft. It is forged in the emergence of a common ideal of enormous personality which today has come to be valued as an authentic contribution to the sphere from a culture that was formerly seen as on the peripheries. What will be demonstrated is the path taken by previous generations to these works and the debate that surrounds them. The sensibilities for both the vernacular and the classic, which at first glance may seem contradictory, will dominate the debate with the same veracity and respectability. The so-called third generation of Sigfried Giedion will revive the process between the classic and the vernacular, supported in spirit by the handcraft work and by tradition, with the objective of discovering the “truth” and the “original essence” of the architectural act. The second chapter analyzes the Varming house, built by Eva and Nils Koppel 1953, which is situated in a residential area of Gentofte. This reinterprets Asplund’s vision of an interior landscape extending to the exterior, where we see a break with the conventional sturdy brick shell of the 1930s. It is the most powerful example of the union of tradition and innovation in his their residential work. Their sober forms caught between Danish Functionalism and modernity are characterized by their abstraction and clean shapes which accentuate their prismatic and brutal geometry, The displacement of the parts of which they are composed, one over the other, generate a rhythm. This is produced to varying scales and is closely linked to its forms and the selection of materials – brick and wood – that confer an organic character to the house. The building is anchored to the earth, finding solution at different levels through the study of place and topography. The result is an adaption constructed out of the landscape, in which the building gives form to the place and celebrates the experience of the natural setting. The unity of primitive structures appears to be present. It constitutes an example of “Asplund’s Promenade Idea”. Different routes of exploration within are available to the visitor, allowing for one’s own personal experience of the house, allowing in turn for the vital chance to decide. The third chapter deals with Niels Bohr’s guest pavilion. Built in 1957, it is situated in a wooded area of Tisvilde Hegn and was the architect Vilhelm Wohlert’s first building. Rooted in the Danish Tradition, it represents a renewal based on the absorption of foreign influences: American architecture and the Japanese tradition. The wooden box, perched atop a horizontal terrain, possesses the sensitive character of the living organism, ever-changing in accordance with the variations in daylight and temperature. When opened up, it creates an elongation of the interior space which extends into the surrounding nature and it expands towards the exterior space, allowing for its mobilisation. It establishes an architecture of flux. There is interest in the material, its texture and the emotional effect it inspires. The building’s proportions and dimensions are regulated by a module, which is adjusted by hand, bringing out the great unity of the building. The key to its aesthetic effect is its harmony and equilibrium, which convey serenity and beauty. The meeting with nature is the most fundamental lesson of the project, where a world of relationships softens the personality of the human being. The fourth chapter analyzes the Louisiana Museum project of 1958 in 1958. It was the first project of the Danish architects Jørgen Bo and Vilhelm Wohlert. Wohlert’s experience in California where he was visited by Bo would be essential to the development of Louisiana, where the Danish identity is fused in assimilation with other cultures, the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, that of the Bahía area and principally the Japanese tradition. The idea of the project was for an integrated work of art: architecture, art and landscape, which would coexist in the same space. A range of different resources would realize the residential character, such as the use of materials taken from a domestic environment, the attainment of human scale and the manner in which light was used. Flat roof plans that show their artificiality and appear to float over glassed galleries. They accentuate the strength of the horizontal plan and establish a zigzag route of marked and measured rhythm. It is a rhythm that has to do with the incarnation of nature’s pulse, which is accompanied with plays of light, as well as material vibrations of different scales, imagery which uncovers a parallel analogy with Japanese culture. Everything is coordinated along a structural frame, which involves a disciplined construction and proportion. Louisiana cherishes nature’s principle of growth, to which its connection is profound. Here is a dynamism expressed through the disposition of the building, which evokes in some projects the Japanese tradition. The white walls possess their own identity as forms in their own right. They advance, extending beyond the line of glass, moving freely along the structural line, accompanying a space that flows and in direct contact with nature that is itself in a constant state of flux. It creates a world of relationships, where dialogue exists between the landscape, art and architecture. The fifth chapter is dedicated to analyzing the Danish architect Halldor Gunnløgsson’s second house, built in 1959. It evokes both Japanese and American architecture but is principally the result of a strong will and personal artistic discipline. The flat roof suspended above a large paved platform – itself continuing the constructed terrain of the place – has great presence and casts a heavy shadow beneath. In the interior, a single space, which can at length be divided and which flows around a central space. The space flows freely, extending through the transparency of its windows which give out onto two contrasting locations: an intimate garden patio, inspiring calm and tranquillity, and the wild nature of the sea which projects the colour of sky, both in a constant state of change. The project is realized in a rigorously formal manner. A perfect balance exists between the abstraction of his structure and his project. The wooden structure, whose order extends beyond the limits of its perimeter, is formed of complete porticos of free elements. It remains exposed, maintaining a close relationship with Mies’ concept of modernity, analogous to classical architecture. The preoccupation with the aesthetic effect is paramount and nothing is improvised. But in addition to this - the combination of materials and the play of textures - there is a tactile quality, a certain eroticism, which lingers all about. The constructive precision and its refinement are close to Mies. The experience of the architectural space is universal. The influence of Japanese architecture, more conceptual than formal, is revealed in a respect for nature. It can be seen in the search for refinement through moderation, the elimination of the superfluous object that distract from the experience of place and the preoccupation with light and shade, where a certain parallel with the dark world of the Nordic winter is established. There is an understanding that space, rather than being an immaterial object defined by material surfaces, extends instead as dynamic interactions. The sixth chapter. This proposes a journey to discover some of the unfamiliar residences of most interest which were constructed in the period, and which form part of the system being investigated. Through the study of comparison and one which is geared towards various themes, diverse conclusions are drawn regarding the system being researched. The expertise in substance and form will be a distinctive characteristic in Denmark, demonstrating an approach to the culture of the Orient, both conceptual and formal, and some common interests in certain American architecture. Its teachings sensitize us to a strengthened sense of proportion, scale, materiality, texture and weight and density of space. It values both the tactile and the visual. There is a sensitivity to nature, to the human, to the landscape and to the integrity of the work.

Capilla del M.I.T. de Eero Saarinen, 1950-55 : sincretismo en la armonía de los opuestos

La historia de la arquitectura se ha medido - en parte - por la evolución de las modas, épocas y estilos de la arquitectura religiosa. En la aparición de las nuevas capillas interreligiosas universitarias de los años '50 de Norteamérica, la capilla del M.I.T., bautizada tras su inauguración como “Kresge Chapel” en honor al apellido de su benefactor, fue el máximo exponente como prototipo en esta época marcada por la aparición nuevas conciencias de posguerra. (II Guerra Mundial). La tesis centra su investigación en esta capilla, cómo nació en respuesta a la necesidad de compatibilizar la enseñanza reglada científico tecnológica con una formación religiosa y humanista, para el programa impuesto como ampliación del campus universitario del MIT en el barrio universitario de Cambridge, Boston, Massachussets, en torno a dos edificios principales a proyectar: capilla y auditorio. Desde el trabajo de investigación se aporta la información documental necesaria para saber cómo evolucionó desde sus primeros bocetos hasta su construcción. Su nacimiento como necesidad en la sociedad universitaria no fue nada espontáneo, quedando a medias entre la influencia escandinavo - alemana y la tradición americano-luterana de anteriores iglesias neoclásicas herederas del “Plan Akron”. La formación académica y profesional dirigida por su padre, Eliel Saarinen, suman junto a los viajes del arquitecto, una herencia “genética” para con este prototipo ajeno al emergente “estilo internacional” y ayudan a comprender la dimensión compleja de lo que es capaz de representar la capilla. La capilla es refugio emocional de la luz y es un punto de inflexión notable en la recuperación del tipo centrado renovado y evolucionado, que junto con el doble recurso lumínico - efectista, de la vertical para el altar y horizontal inferior, distribuido desde el perímetro ondulado en el interior, el ejemplo es muestra la promoción de una cierta sensibilidad para con las nuevas formas de la "religión" emergentes en la Norteamérica de los años 50. Desde el sincretismo como mecanismo y principal “modus operandi” proyectual, FE versus RAZÓN, aparecen como dualismo permanente en todas las fases del proyecto, desde un proceso de búsqueda de la armonía de ambos y para cada uno de ellos. Con el estudio del modelo prototípico del MIT, buscamos el "patrón" empleado por el arquitecto en su proyección de "nueva iglesia" adaptado a la diversidad cultural y religiosa y de las nuevas y diferentes sensibilidades humanistas para el proyecto. ----------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY--------------------------------------------------- The history of architecture is measured - in part - by the evolution of fashion, periods and styles of religious architecture. In the emergence of the new interfaith university chapel of the 1950s in North America, the chapel of MIT, named after its inauguration as "Kresge Chapel" in honor of its benefactor, was the best example of a prototype, in this time so marked by the emergence of new postwar consciousnesses. The thesis focuses its research on this chapel; how it came about in response to the need to reconcile formal scientific and technological education with religious and humanist training for the program imposed as an extension of the campus of MIT in the university district of Cambridge, Boston Massachusetts, around two main projected buildings : Chapel and auditorium. From research work has been obtained the documentary information necessary to know how it evolved from the first sketches to its construction. Its creation as a necessity of the university society was not at all spontaneous, being halfway between the Scandinavian influence - German and the American Lutheran tradition of neoclassical churches, the heirs to the "Akron Plan". The academic and professional training directed by his father, Eliel Saarinen, together with the travels of the architect, a "genetic" heritage with this external prototype for the emerging "international style", and help to understand the complex dimension of what the chapel is capable of representing. The chapel is an emotional refuge of light and is a remarkable turning point in the recovery of such focused renewed and evolved, along with the double lumen resource - gimmicky, vertical to the altar and lower horizontal, distributed from the undulating perimeter inside, the example is shown to promote a certain sensitivity to the new forms of "religion" but vague religious profile emerging in the America of the 50s. From the syncretism as a mechanism and main "modus operandi" of the project, FAITH versus REASON appears as permanent dualism in all phases of the project from a process of finding the harmony of both and for each of them. With the study of the prototypical model of MIT, we seek the "pattern" used by the architect in his projection of "new church" adapted to the cultural and religious diversity and new and different humanist sensitivities for the project. El desarrollo vierte la luz suficiente para entender los patrones de lo arquitectónico en la capilla, que hacen de ella, la comunión armónica y perfecta de los nombrados opuestos en el campus universitario del MIT. En el camino, además, la investigación arroja luz y orden sobre las fases del proyecto a través de la contribución, recogida, clasificación y orden de los datos, fechas y documentos gráficos, a día de hoy dispersos y confusamente publicados, debido a la no existencia de un estudio profundo y completo como el que pretende ser este trabajo, por ser una obra fundamental en la historia de la arquitectura moderna. El patrón final demostrará el artificio sincrético de cada una de las partes - cada uno en sí misma y cosidas todas - formando el "Ima Summis" de la capilla; resultado de la acción proyectual deducida de su serie genética descifrada. De esta forma, lo sincrético, aparece como el principal atributo del hecho construido, pasando de lo místico a lo científico, de lo intuitivo a lo razonado y siempre con el vehículo de su arquitectura para la interpretación de lo inefable al interior. En cuanto a la estructura de la tesis, se inicia el desarrollo a partir de una introducción en la que se declaran las intenciones y se describe el contexto de lo investigado en torno a la hipótesis principal anunciada en el subtítulo de la tesis. Frente a consideraciones previas de la capilla y de la propia investigación, se expone y explica la hipótesis principal, junto a otros objetivos secundarios. Para finalizar la introducción, se describe el método seguido como estrategia y se justifica la estructura de redacción del documento para la compresión de este trabajo hacia sus conclusiones. Es en el primer capítulo, el C1, donde se inicia el cuerpo central mediante la exposición historiográfica de la situación y contexto previo a la capilla como antecedentes. En un segundo capítulo, el C2, se aborda el estudio del desarrollo del proyecto y de la obra y construcción de la capilla, base documental necesaria. Para ello se inicia con la descripción del lugar, del encargo y del programa, para pasar a mostrar con detalle las distintas propuestas de cada una de las fases del proyecto. En definitiva, qué se proyecto, cómo evolucionó el proyecto y en qué fases transcurrió, para entre otras cuestiones, entender el cambio de estilo desde una fase influenciada por la capilla de Mies construida en el ITT de Chicago, (denominadas en este trabajo por esta influencia como modelos “miesianos”) y la fase reencuentro con el modus de hacer iniciado por su padre Eliel, a través de un modelo a medias de una herencia escandinavo - alemana y la tradición luterano - americana, (denominada en este trabajo como herencia o modelos “saariniana/os”). The development sheds enough light to understand the architectural patterns of the chapel, making it the perfect and harmonic communion named opposites on the campus of MIT. Along the way, furthermore, the research sheds light and order on the phases of the project through the contribution, collection, sorting and order of data, dates and graphic documents, today scattered and confusingly published, due to inexistence of a deep and comprehensive study like this work is meant to be, in the context of such a seminal work in the history of modern architecture. The final pattern will demonstrate the syncretic artifice of each of the parts - each in itself and all together - forming the "Ima Summis" of the chapel; the result of the project action deducted from its deciphered genetic series. Being the SYNCRETIC, the main attribute of the built matter, passing from the mystical to the scientific, from the intuitive to the reasoned and always with the vehicle of architecture as the representation of the ineffable. As for the structure of the thesis, the development starts from an introduction in which the intentions are declared and the context of that which is investigated is described, in terms of the main hypothesis announced in the subtitle of the thesis. Faced with previous considerations of the chapel and the research itself, the principal hypothesis is expressed and explained, along with other secondary objectives. To conclude the introduction, the method followed is described as a strategy and the structuring of the document is justified for the compression of this work towards its conclusions. It is in the first chapter of the thesis, the C1, where the main body of the work is initiated through the historiographical account of the situation and context prior to the chapel as antecedents. A second chapter, C2, addresses the study of the development of the project and of the work and construction of the chapel, based on the necessary documentary evidence. To this end, the analysis begins with the description of the place, the commission and the program, moving on to analyze in detail the various proposals of each phase. What is projected, how it evolved and through what phases passed the project to, among other questions, understand the change in style between the phase of influence of Mies through the projected chapel in the ITT of Chicago chapel (called in this work as "miesian" influences or models) and the reunion with the modus of making initiated by his father Eliel, through a model equally at once of Scandinavian-German heritage and of the American-Lutheran tradition, (referred to in this work as "saarinian" inheritance or models). Para el tercer capítulo, el C3, se llevan a estudio y análisis, los elementos más destacables en los que se prueban las particularidades llamadas “genéticas” en cada uno de las partes principales detectadas en la capilla. Desde ellas se rastrean las influencias - a veces sinergias - que ayudan a justificar y conformar una clasificación genética en torno a cuatro patrones principales, de los que poder discernir al final del capítulo, el “patrón matriz” de la propia capilla en base a la concurrencia de los órdenes arquitectónicos que los conforman. Una vez obtenida la información y orden necesario, se puede afrontar el punto álgido de esta tesis con el cuarto capítulo, el C4, en el que se justifica la capacidad sincrética de la capilla como respuesta a la hipótesis principal señalada en el subtítulo. Para ello se inicia el capítulo con el enfoque y contexto del término “sincretismo” y “sincrético”, aportando la justificación de sus usos para con esta investigación, antes de explicar que la capilla es sincrética por la suma de dos claves fundamentales. La clave primera, correspondiente a la capacidad interconfesional y aconfesional de la capilla, y su capacidad de trascender al interior desde ambas situaciones además de ser reconocible por el religioso y a la vez por el científico. Y la clave segunda, que corresponde a la suma de las distintas partes sincréticas, cada una en si mismas, capaz de sumar todas juntas, este edificio sincrético de los nombrados opuestos. Una vez discernido las claves de lo sincrético en la capilla y a pesar de su doble carácter SACRO Y PROFANO, una comparativa posiciona a la capilla como único entre los ejemplos interconfesionales construidos en los ´50, sin haberse repetido de igual manera y mismo resultado en el tiempo, ni en ninguna otra universidad o centro tecnológico. Así la exposición de este trabajo finaliza con el último capítulo, el C5, en el que desde esa comparativa, una serie de cuestiones unen y distancian a la del MIT y dan acierto a la apuesta inicial, concluyendo que la hipótesis y el patrón de la misma, es el patrón de lo sincrético que modela el ”modus operandi ” del arquitecto. Tras el desarrollo, la investigación cierra filas en torno a cuatro conclusiones para los cuatro capítulos principales; C2, C3, C4, C5. La capilla del MIT como modelo prototípico no se repite en el tiempo, ni en ninguna otra universidad y se posiciona como el mejor prototipo – hito de una nueva arquitectura religiosa universitaria. In the third chapter, C3, we study and analyze the most notable elements in which are found those particularities referred to as "genetic" in each of the principal parts, (see above C3.1.1... - C3.1.8), where these influences - sometimes synergies - are traced, helping to justify and form a classification based on four of those principals (see above C3.2), from which, at the end of this chapter may be discerned a matrix pattern, that of the chapel itself (see above. C3.3.), based on concurrent architectural orders. Once the necessary information and order is obtained, we come to the decisive point in the fourth chapter, C4, where the syncretic capacity of the chapel in response to the main hypothesis indicated in the subtitle of the thesis is justified. For this, the chapter beings with the focus and context of the terms "syncretism" and "syncretic", providing justification for their use for this research, going on to assert that the chapel is syncretic from the sum of two fundamental aspects: the first corresponds to the interfaith and non-denominational capacities of the chapel, its ability to transcend both situations and be recognizable by both the religious and the scientific. The second corresponds to the sum of the different syncretic parts, each in themselves, capable of making together a syncretic building with the opposite. Once discerned the keys to the syncretic and epic in the chapel and despite its dual character both SACRED and PROFANE, a comparatison positions the chapel as being unique among interfaith examples built in the 1950s, without being repeated in the same way and with the same result over time or in any other university or centre of technology. So, the exhibition of this work ends with the last chapter, C5, in which from that comparison a number of issues come together and to distance themselves from MIT and bear out the initial proposition, concluding that the hypothesis and its pattern, the pattern of the syncretic which models the "modus operandi" of the architect to contain the ineffable. The research closes ranks around four conclusions for the four main chapters; C2, C3, C4, and C5 The chapel of MIT as a prototypical model is not repeated in time, or any other university and is positioned as the best prototype - a landmark of a new universitary religious architecture.

AVALIAÇÃO CEFALOMÉTRICA DO TECIDO MOLE EM JOVENS COM OCLUSÃO NORMAL: APLICAÇÃO E COMPARAÇÃO DA ANÁLISE DE ARNETT et al.

Este estudo teve como objetivo aplicar e avaliar a Análise Cefalométrica do Tecido Mole proposta por ARNETT et al. em jovens brasileiros, determinando seus valores médios e comparando com os dos autores. A amostra compôs-se de 60 indivíduos, sendo 24 do sexo masculino e 36 do sexo feminino. Todos brasileiros, leucodermas e portadores de oclusão normal natural, apresentando um mínimo de quatro das seis chaves de oclusão de ANDREWS. A utilização da posição natural da cabeça e da linha vertical verdadeira no momento da obtenção das telerradiografias compuseram a metodologia do trabalho. Avaliaram-se os fatores dentários e os esqueléticos, as espessuras do tecido mole, os comprimentos faciais, as projeções do tecido mole em relação à Linha Vertical Verdadeira e a harmonia intramandibular, a intermaxilar e a facial total. Os resultados demonstraram que os valores médios da amostra estudada apresentaram diferenças em relação aos valores normativos de ARNETT et al. na maioria das variáveis e quando comparados entre si, verificou-se que os americanos apresentaram altura facial maior, perfil facial mais reto e nariz mais proeminente que os brasileiros, tanto para o sexo masculino como para o feminino. O sexo masculino apresentou altura facial e espessura dos tecidos moles maior que o sexo feminino, porem, lábios superior e inferior menos protruídos em relação à Linha Vertical Verdadeira. A

DETERMINAÇÃO DA POSIÇÃO DE REPOUSO DA LÍNGUA EM INDIVÍDUOS COM OCLUSÃO DENTÁRIA NORMAL

O propósito neste estudo foi determinar a posição de repouso da língua em indivíduos com oclusão dentária normal e respiração nasal, por meio de telerradiografias em norma lateral realizadas após a ingestão de bário. A amostra foi composta por 66 radiografias de indivíduos brancos com oclusão dentária normal, sendo 26 do sexo masculino e 40 do sexo feminino, na faixa etária de 12 a 21 anos de idade, procedentes de escolas da região do Grande ABC Paulista. O critério utilizado para diagnóstico da oclusão normal foi As Seis Chaves para a Oclusão Normal preconizadas por Andrews (1972), devendo estar presentes no mínimo quatro das seis chaves, sendo obrigatória a presença da primeira chave de oclusão que é a da relação interarcos. As radiografias foram obtidas com o indivíduo em posição natural da cabeça após a ingestão de contraste de sulfato de bário para evidenciar o controle da língua. Posteriormente foi feito o desenho anatômico das estruturas pesquisadas, marcados os pontos cefalométricos, traçadas as linhas e os planos, e por último obtidas as seguintes medidas lineares: comprimento e altura da língua, distância do dorso da língua na sua porção média até o palato duro e a distância entre a ponta da língua e a incisal do incisivo inferior. Por meio dos resultados encontrados verificou-se que não existe um padrão único de posicionamento de repouso da língua dentro da cavidade oral, em pacientes respiradores nasais, variando muito sua distância até a incisal dos incisivos inferiores, bem como até o palato duro, havendo uniformidade apenas no fato da língua tocar o palato mole em todos os indivíduos da amostra. Não houve relação estatisticamente significante entre a posição de repouso da língua e os biotipos faciais e nem dimorfismo sexual.

Microbial phyllosphere populations are more complex than previously realized

Phyllosphere microbial communities were evaluated on leaves of field-grown plant species by culture-dependent and -independent methods. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) with 16S rDNA primers generally indicated that microbial community structures were similar on different individuals of the same plant species, but unique on different plant species. Phyllosphere bacteria were identified from Citrus sinesis (cv. Valencia) by using DGGE analysis followed by cloning and sequencing of the dominant rDNA bands. Of the 17 unique sequences obtained, database queries showed only four strains that had been described previously as phyllosphere bacteria. Five of the 17 sequences had 16S similarities lower than 90% to database entries, suggesting that they represent previously undescribed species. In addition, three fungal species were also identified. Very different 16S rDNA DGGE banding profiles were obtained when replicate cv. Valencia leaf samples were cultured in BIOLOG EcoPlates for 4.5 days. All of these rDNA sequences had 97–100% similarity to those of known phyllosphere bacteria, but only two of them matched those identified by the culture independent DGGE analysis. Like other studied ecosystems, microbial phyllosphere communities therefore are more complex than previously thought, based on conventional culture-based methods.

Propôe-se classificação dos Phlebotominae, com ênfase para os da América, baseada em cladograma obtido pela análise de 101 caracteres. Os estudos foram desenvolvidos a partir do exame detalhado da morfologia dos adultos das espéciés-tipos dos gêneros e subgêneros americanos e das espécies denominativas ou representativas de seus grupos e séries de espécies. Quando possível, os estudos foram complementados pela observação de alguns caracteres em espécimens adicionais de cada grupo e informações bibliográficas. Incluiram-se, ainda, no estudo as espécies-tipos dos gêneros do Velho Mundo, Phlebotomus e Sergentomyia e, espécies dos gêneros Bruchomyia e Nemopalpus de Bruchomyiinae (grupo externo). Apresenta-se, segundo a classificação proposta até o nivel de série, o elenco das espécies e subespécies americanas, com a distribuiçâo geográfica. Descrevem-se os táxons novos: Blancasmyia, gen.n.; B1.(Blancasmyia), subgen.n.; B1. (Higonemyia), subgen.n.; Psychodopygus (Martinsimyia), subgen.n.; Ps.(Rodentophagus), subgen.n.; Sergentomyia (Coquillettimyia), subgen.n.;S.(Falcaomyia), subgen.n. e S.(Flochimyia), subgen.n. Acrescentam-se chaves para a identificação das categorias coletivas.

La desigualdad entre mujeres y hombres en el sector hostelero español

Es un lugar común afirmar que una de las repercusiones positivas del desarrollo turístico es la facilitación de la incorporación de la mujer al mundo laboral. Así, las mujeres representan la mayor parte de la fuerza de trabajo del sector hostelero español y están representadas en todas las categorías laborales. Sin embargo, se sabe que dicha incorporación se realiza en condiciones desiguales y, específicamente en los hoteles, las mujeres ocupan mayoritariamente puestos de baja cualificación. También es un lugar común que una de las claves para el éxito del sector turístico es asegurar que los trabajadores sean eficientes y estén comprometidos con la empresa para garantizar la calidad del servicio prestado. Las políticas laborales deben promover una mayor igualdad de oportunidades, remuneración y condiciones de trabajo en el sector. En este trabajo se presentan evidencias de la disparidad salarial, la segregación vertical y la mayor precariedad laboral que sufren las mujeres en el subsector de la hostelería en España. Con este propósito se analizan datos estadísticos secundarios procedentes de organismos oficiales. Finalmente, se propone una reflexión acerca de las razones que motivan estas desigualdades, así como de las políticas que deberían seguirse para mitigarlas.
