Abstract:

Research in art conservation has been developed from the early 1950s, giving a significant contribution to the conservation-restoration of cultural heritage artefacts. In fact, only through a profound knowledge about the nature and conditions of constituent materials, suitable decisions on the conservation and restoration measures can thus be adopted and preservation practices enhanced. The study of ancient artworks is particularly challenging as they can be considered as heterogeneous and multilayered systems where numerous interactions between the different components as well as degradation

This thesis in applied physics analyzes and solves problems regarding destructive and protective atmospheric microclimates in order to slow down the deterioration of indoor cultural heritage materials. Fresh approaches to two longstanding areas of concern are made in laboratory studies with a view to future field testing and evaluation by heritage conservation practitioners and museum display case manufacturers. Methods used for observing and analysing materials are macrophotography, optical microscopy, metallography, image analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy d

Abstract:

Many historical objects have coatings or varnish layers on the surface. In order to determine their conservation and historical contextualization is necessary to know its origin, why they were applied, the application technique and how they aged. In this context we found that one kind of material used is diterpenic resin obtained from species of the Pinaceae family. A search in historical sources from 9th to 19th centuries was performed in order to know how Pinaceae resin was used during history. It has been observed that resins from certain Pinaceae species such as Abies alba Mill. or Larix

Abstract:

Pas de résumé en français<br>One of the new challenges of conservation science is the development of field instrumentation to analyze works of art. In order to get the most information on the material, it is often necessary to perform complementary analyses by juggling different analytical techniques. This time-consuming drawback involves a difficulty to analyze the artwork on the same spot of the surface. However, some of spectroscopies have in common to use the same laser as excitation source and the collection of the emitted signal could be recorded by the same spectrometer. In this spirit,

The aim of this research is to improve ways of reducing the damage caused by salts to cultural property. A specific focus of attention is the use of environmental control as a passive measure. Environmental control attempts to specify optimum ranges of relative humidity (RH) and temperature (T), to control salt phase transitions. To undertake environmental control a range of suitable climatic conditions are selected on the basis of thermodynamic calculations. These calculations are used to determine a range of RH and T in which salt phase transitions are minimised, and require very accurate an

In FIR transmission we employ polyethylene (PE) for preparation of pellets by embedding the sample in PE. Unfortunately, the preparation requires heating of the PE in order to produces at transparent pellet. This will affect compound

The gap in nursing practice noted by nursing staff, patients, and their families was that the patient education materials on heart failure were not tailored to the cultural beliefs and customs of this high-risk population.

Abstract:

Através do estudo da cerâmica dos Asuriní do Xingu e da cestaria dos Kayapó-Xikrin, desenvolvi uma reflexão sobre os diferentes significados das tecnologias. Em outras palavras, tentei evidenciar que os processos produtivos da cultura material não são, exclusivamente, um indicador da adaptabilidade ou da eficiência do homem na resolução dos problemas originado da sua relação com o mundo material, mas que ao mesmo tempo, eles são uma construção social. A partir dos dados coletados, tentei contribuir para as discussões sobre os processos de formação do registro arqueológico e mais precisamente,

Abstract:

Previous research worldwide has shown that curriculum materials maintain a strong presence and constitute an important tool, artefact, in mathematics classrooms. Yet, there is a vast lack of research on the design and the characteristics of teacher guides. The thesis aims to: 1) investigate the features of the Finnish teacher guides for mathematics at primary school and 2) map the cultural specificities and norms for classroom practices as construed in Finnish teacher guides. The data consist of nine Finnish teacher guides in mathematics (belonging to three textbook series) for Grades 1-6 and

Abstract:

O materialismo cultural é uma abordagem metodológica contemporânea em Teoria Cultural. Trata-se de \"uma teoria das especificidades da produção material de cultura e literatura dentro do materialismo histórico\", conforme define Raymond Williams (1921-1988), um dos principais nomes ligados a essa perspectiva. Fundador da tradição britânica dos estudos culturais, Williams concebe a cultura, na contramão da crítica literária tradicional - de base romântico-idealista -, como produção material da sociedade. O trabalho expõe o sistema de axiomas e categorias do materialismo cultural e investiga as

Abstract:

Prior research in the field of culture and language education depicts the close relation between language and culture. Furthermore, such research emphasises that in order to understand and to be able to use a language properly, one needs to acknowledge that language is culture. Today English is a global language and a tool for communication in working life, in studies and when travelling. Hence, to be able to communicate in English one needs to know the cultural codes in these specific settings. Moreover, language teaching has many dimensions and according to the curriculum, teachers have an o
