Variedades e estilos na obra atribuída a Frei Carlos: novas perspetivas

Este trabalho de investigação centra-se no contributo dos exames de superfície e nas análises micro-analíticas no estudo de vinte e uma pinturas atribuídas à oficina de Frei Carlos, um dos grandes Mestres Luso-Flamengos ativos em território Nacional durante a primeira metade do século XVI. A "Pintura Luso-Flamenga" é uma expressão comummente usada na história da pintura Portuguesa do primeiro terço do século XVI e no seu sentido mais básico designa o trabalho de mestres flamengos que se instalaram em Portugal durante o reinado de D. Manuel I (1495- 1521) contribuindo decisivamente para o processo de renovação da pintura Portuguesa na época. O estudo integrado combina a pesquisa histórica em fontes documentais com exames de superfície e de caracterização material das obras de arte. O estudo material das pinturas foi realizado através de microscopia ótica, microscopia de infravermelhos com transformada de Fourier, espectroscopia de micro-Raman, microscopia eletrónica de varrimento acoplada com espectrometria de energia dispersiva de raios X, micro- difração de raios-X, cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência e pirólise acoplada à cromatografia gasosa /espectrometria de massa. Esta investigação envolveu técnicas complementares de análise de superfície e de ponto no estudo técnico e material das preparações, imprimitura, desenho subjacente, camadas pictóricas e sucessões estratigráficas, dando a conhecer os materiais utilizados na execução técnica das pinturas e evidenciando especificidades técnicas da produção artística. Este estudo pretende inclusivamente evidenciar alguns detalhes técnicos do artista que possivelmente estão relacionados com a herança das práticas Flamengas. O conhecimento de algumas particularidades da técnica deste Mestre também permitiu estabelecer comparações com duas pinturas que haviam sido atribuídas, com algumas reservas, a esta oficina de pintura Luso-Flamenga. Mais recentemente, como resultado de um estudo colaborativo, foi realizada uma ampla campanha de reflectografia infravermelhos, introduzindo novos dados acerca da execução técnica do desenho subjacente, o que contribuiu para diferenciar, nestas duas pinturas, outra "mão", atribuída então a um seguidor de Frei Carlos. Esta investigação introduz um novo e profundo conhecimento sobre a Oficina de Frei Carlos, permitindo estabelecer comparações com a obra do seu seguidor e com uma pintura também atribuída a esta oficina e que incorpora o Museu da National Gallery (NG5594), evidenciando os materiais utilizados na técnica de produção artística e especificidades técnicas aliadas aos processos criativos/ construtivos que permitem estabelecer os pontos de contacto e de diferenciação entre estas obras; Varieties and styles in the works attributed to Frei Carlos - new perspectives Abstract: This investigation is focused on the contributions of surface exams and micro-analytical research in the study of twenty one paintings attributed to Frei Carlos workshop, one of the most important Portuguese-Flemish painters active in our country during the first half of sixteen Century. "Portuguese-Flemish Painting" is a common expression used in the history of Portuguese painting of the first third of the sixteenth century and in its most basic meaning designates the work of Flemish masters who settled in Portugal during the reign of King Manuel I (1495-1521) contributing decisively to the process of renewal of Portuguese painting at the time. The integrated approach combines historical research on documental sources with surface examination and material characterization of the paintings by using state-of-art analytical techniques. Microanalysis was carried out by optical microscopy, micro-Fourier-transform infrared-spectroscopy, micro-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, micro-X-ray diffraction analysis, high performance liquid chromatography and Pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry. This complementary surface and analytical research was involved in the technical and material characterization of grounds, underdrawings, primings, paint layers and its multi-layered build-up, providing access to the painter´s materials used in the technical execution of the paintings and details of the technique of artistic production. This study also intends to expose some usual details of the artist’s technique which are possibly related to the Master´s Flemish influence. The knowledge of some particularities of the Master´s technique also allowed a new comparison with two paintings that had been attributed with some reserves to this Portuguese-Flemish workshop. More recently, as a result of a collaborative study, an extensive infrared reflectography campaign was made, giving new data concerning underdrawings technical execution and contributing to differentiate, in these two paintings, another “hand”, attributed to a follower of Frei Carlos. Complementary analytical research also added a new and deep insight into Frei Carlos workshop, his follower and a panel that still attributed to Frei Carlos workshop that integrates the National Gallery´s Museum (NG5594), evidencing the materials used in technical production, their models and sources of artistic inspiration, techniques and pictorial construction procedures that could specifically relate or distinguish between them.

ABORDAGEM DO TEMA “MIGRAÇÃO” NAS APOSTILAS DA REDE PÚBLICA ESTADUAL PAULISTA

Dentre os tantos assuntos estudados na disciplina de Geografia da rede pública estadual paulista, os fluxos migratórios se caracterizam por serem importantes, pois estão muito presentes no cotidiano do aluno: ao se deslocar de casa até a escola; da migração de seus pais de um estado até outro ou ainda de amigos que foram para outro país em busca de emprego, por exemplo. Por isso, esse assunto merece destaque em sala de aula e assim, se faz necessário, juntamente com o professor, um bom material de apoio: jornais, documentários, filmes, revistas, livros didáticos, apostilas e outros. Portanto, objetivamos analisar de que forma as apostilas de Geografia organizadas pela Secretaria de Educação do Estado de São Paulo apresentam os conteúdos relacionados aos processos migratórios. Para tanto, os materiais que apresentam tal assunto serão selecionadas e itens como: ilustrações, representações cartográficas, textos, exercícios, dentre outros, serão analisados para que posteriormente possamos contribuir para melhora do material. Como exemplo dessa análise, podemos citar o mapa “As Migrações, final do século XX” página 23 do caderno do aluno, volume 1, 3ª série do Ensino Médio, que ao apresentar os principais fluxos migratórios internacionais aponta apenas um questionamento aos alunos: “O que o mapa representa? Justifique”. Tal mapa com informações sobre efetivo de imigrantes, fluxos e porcentagem de imigrantes na população, poderia ser mais explorado em questões e discussões para melhor compreensão do aluno.

NMR (1H, 13C) and MO (ab initio, CNDO/2, EHT) studies on basic and N-protonated hydrazinecarbothioamide

The conformational preferences of hydrazinecarbothioamide (HCTA, H2NNHCSNH2) in its basic and N-protonated (PHCTA, H3NNNHCSNH2) forms have been studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and by theoretical LCAO-MO methods (ab initio, CNDO/2 and EHT). The hindered rotation around the C---N bond has been investigated by a total line shape analysis for the thioamide protons and by the three MO methods. Changes in the molecular conformation and electronic structure on protonation are briefly discussed.

Hybrid game strategies for MO problems in aerospace design

Game strategies have been developed in past decades and used in the field of economics, engineering, computer science and biology due to their efficiency in solving design optimisation problems. In addition, research on Multi-Objective (MO) and Multidisciplinary Design Optimisation (MDO) has focused on developing robust and efficient optimisation method to produce quality solutions with less computational time. In this paper, a new optimisation method Hybrid Game Strategy for MO problems is introduced and compared to CMA-ES based optimisation approach. Numerical results obtained from both optimisation methods are compared in terms of computational expense and model quality. The benefits of using Game-strategies are demonstrated.

A reconsideration of phase relations in the Ti-Al-Mo and Ti-Al systems

A microstructural and X-ray investigation of Ti-AI-Mo alloys Ti-31 Al-15 Mo, Ti-31 Al-13 Mo, Ti-31Al-9Mo and Ti-35Al-9Mo (containing the Ti3Al, TiAl and β phases) indicates that the existing phase diagram of the ternary system for this composition range published by Ge Dhzhi-Min and Pylaeva is in error above 1473 K. An analysis of phase relations reveals that the error has arisen from their use of the Ti-AI diagram due to Bumps, Kessler and Hansen as a basis for generating the ternary. It is shown that a phase diagram of the ternary, consistent with the experimental results, can be generated using a version of the Ti-AI system due to Margolin. Simple geometric arguments are used to build up a new semi-quantitative description of the Ti-AI-Mo system which can be used as a basis for a detailed investigation of phase equilibria in this system.

Diffusion Parameters in the Nb-Mo System: Revisited

The variation of the interdiffusion coefficient with the change in composition in the Nb-Mo system is determined in the temperature range of 1800 °C to 1900 °C. It was found that the activation energy has a minimum at around 45 at. pct Nb. The values of the pre-exponential factor and the activation energy for diffusion are compared with the data available in the literature. Further, the impurity diffusion coefficients of Nb in Mo and Mo in Nb are calculated.

X-Ray Spectroscopic Studies of the Surface Species in Co-Mo-Al2O3 Hydrodesulphurization Catalysts

Octahedrally coordinated CoII and MoIV species are present on the surfaces of sulfided Co-Mo-Al2O3 catalysts used for hydrodesulfurization. They were characterized by XPE, EXAFS and XANES data. An excess of sulfur in the surface species can be explained in terms of the presence of S[stack 22 ] ions. Disulfide bridges could play a role in the hydrodesulfurization.

Topological close packed mu phase formation and the determination of diffusion parameters in the Co-Mo system

The study on the formation and growth of topological close packed (TCP) compounds is important to understand the performance of turbine blades in jet engine applications. These deleterious phases grow mainly by diffusion process in the superalloy substrate. Significant volume change was found because of growth of the p phase in Co-Mo system. Growth kinetics of this phase and different diffusion parameters, like interdiffusion, intrinsic and tracer diffusion coefficients are calculated. Further the activation energy, which provides an idea about the mechanism, is determined. Moreover, the interdiffusion coefficient in Co(Mo) solid solution and impurity diffusion coefficient of Mo in Co are determined.

Interdiffusion in the Ni-Mo system

The interdiffusion coefficient in Ni(Mo) solid solution, impurity diffusion of Mo in Ni, average interdiffusion coefficient of the NiMo-sigma phase and activation energies for diffusion in solid solution and in the sigma phase of the Ni-Mo binary system are evaluated through the diffusion couple approach. These results are utilized to identify the possible diffusion mechanism. Low activation energy in the sigma phase indicates a grain-boundary-controlled diffusion process.

Interdiffusion Studies in the Co- Mo System

Study of interdiffusion in the Co-Mo system is important to understand the performance of turbine blades in jet engine applications. Mo is added to superalloys to increase the solid solution strengthening and the creep resistance. In this study, the interdiffusion coefficient in the Co(Mo) solid solution and impurity diffusion coefficient of Mo in Co are determined. Further, the activation energy and pre-exponential factors are calculated, which provide an idea about the atomic mechanism of diffusion.

An EXAFS study of the Mo/TiO2 hydrodesulphurization catalysis

In-situ EXAFS studies of sulphided Mo/TiO2 catalysts have shown that at low Mo loadings (2–4 wt%), an active species with a short Mo-S distance of 2.25 Å is formed, while on Mo/TiO2 with high Mo loadings as well as on Mo/gamma-Al2O3, bulk MoS2 (Mo-S, 2.42 Å) is formed. The species with the short Mo-S distance has Mo in an oxidation state close to 6 + and is likely to result from the sulphidation of the tetrahedral molybdate species present in the oxidic precursor at low Mo loadings. The calcination temperature of the oxidic precursor appears crucial, a high calcination temperature of 973 K favouring the formation of MoS3 on sulphidation, and a low calcination temperature of 623 K favouring MoS2.
