Restorative landscapes, healing gardens, and therapeutic gardens can improve mental and physical health. They relieve stress, slow us down and make us appreciate the present moment (Kaplan 1995). Research confirms these benefits: “A restorative environment provides measurable physical and/or psychological benefit to human health” (Krinke 2005, 107). Unfortunately, few restorative landscapes are designed for night time use, though stress and the need for healing occur at all hours of the day and night. To that end, the purpose of this research is to create a set of lighting design strategies that will enable designers to create restorative landscapes for nighttime use and demonstrate how they can be applied. A literature review synthesizing the information on healing garden types, outdoor lighting techniques, and their relationship to Attention Restoration Theory, identified four main components required for a space to be considered restorative. Two precedent studies allowed the author to explore the components of Attention Restoration Theory and healing garden types. The lighting principles that afford these four components and healing garden types that are best suited for an urban public space were layered in a final design to create a restorative urban space that is functional at night. The set of design strategies created with the support of this research was applied to Occidental Square, a public park in Seattle, Washington. The applied design strategies are represented and demonstrated through the site design. With these tools in hand, designers can create spaces for those in need of rejuvenation, restoration, and tranquility not only during the day, but also at night.

Full textOne Full Moon Night, my MFA Project Exhibition, is a series of surrealistic drawings. The main inspiration of my exhibition stems from memories of my childhood fantasies. My subject matter portrays children exploring a surrealistic world and growing from this new experience. Despite their young age, my characters are often unafraid of the odd setting they find themselves in. The different kinds of animals in my drawings explore the places alongside the children.
For this MFA exhibition, I presented thirteen graphite pencil drawings on illustration board, ranging in size from nine inches by fifteen inches to eighteen inches by twenty-seven and half inches. I chose graphite as the primary medium because it allows me to accentuate details. Additionally, I intended to make people focus on my fantastical settings and stories by creating black and white scenes.

Full textHealthcare, hospital environments, and the nursing workforce have been a focus of late in both the professional literature and public media especially in the wake of the Institute of Medicine's reports Keeping Patients Safe-Transforming the Work Environment of Nurses (IOM, 2004) and The Future of Nursing-Leading Change Advancing Health (IOM, 2011). These reports address patient safety and workforce issues such as staffing, organizational culture, and workforce characteristics. Very little research has been undertaken on the culture of night nursing or the roles, experiences and characteristics of night nurses. Therefore, a study of night nursing, using a qualitative ethnographic methodology, was chosen to address this gap. Because subcultures can influence the larger culture, knowledge regarding their unique characteristics and attributes becomes critically important especially in the culture of a large hospital.
The purpose of this study was to develop a description of night nursing as a subculture within the larger culture of nursing care and nursing practice that exists in a hospital setting. Data were collected during the researcher's 100 hours of participant observations on five differing nursing units in two hospitals, using semi-structured transcribed interviews with eight nurse informants on these same units, and through an analysis of relevant hospital documents. A synthesis of the collected data identified a subculture of night nursing with shared domains or attributes such as unique roles, rituals, hierarchies, and insider/outsider perspectives.
The final description included four themes that were extrapolated from the synthesized data: (1) night nursing is characterized by camaraderie and teamwork; (2) the environment of a night nurse is conducive to the development of critical thinking; (3) night nurses engage in a constant reflection about sleep; and (4) night nurses share a feeling of being undervalued.
The findings from this study have implications for administrators who must be aware of and understand the needs of night nurses especially related to being valued and included. For nurse educators, important implications center on preparing students for the uniqueness of the role of the night nurse, and planning formal educational offerings during the night shift for nurses. Further research is warranted using quantitative methods to validate and explore the themes and domain descriptions identified in this study.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: A passive night-sky radiation cooling system consists of a radiation panel and a cold water storage tank. The stored cold water may be used to cool a room during the day time, particularly in summer. In this thesis a theoretical and mathematically sound simulation model is developed. An experimental set-up was constructed and subsequently used to show that the theoretical model effectively simulates the transient heating or cooling response of the system. It is shown that under South African conditions the typical heat emitting rate during the night is 55 W/m2. After the heat has been removed from the water, it is stored in a cold water tank from where it is circulated through a natural convector during the day time to absorb heat from the room. The experiment extracted a minimum of 102 W/m3 of heat from a 1.87 m3 galvanized steel room while a brick room with a volume of 120 m3 requires 22.7 W/m3. Additional to cooling, the system during the day, absorbed an average of 362 W of energy and heated 68 l of water from 24 °C to 62 °C within an 8-hour period. The system achieved similar results during winter conditions and the experiment confirms that the system is capable of operating without a control system. Therefore it is recommended that renewable energy-conscious designers pay more attention to the use of night-sky radiation cooling in future.
AFRIKKANSE OPSOMMING: en ’n koue water tenk. Die sisteem kan gebruik word om ’n vertrek gedurende die dag te verkoel, veral in die somer, deur gebruik te maak van die gestoorde verkoelde water. In hierdie tesis word ’n teoretiese en sinvolle wiskundige simulasie model ontwikkel. ’n Eksperimentele stelsel is gebou en vervolgens gebruik om te bewys dat die teoretiese model die veranderende verkoeling en verwarming van die stelsel effektief simuleer. Die tesis dui aan dat onder Suid Afrikaanse toestande daar ’n hitte vrystellings tempo van 55 W/m2 is gedurende die nag. Nadat die water verkoel is, word dit gestoor in die koue water tenk vanwaar dit deur ’n natuurlike konvektor sirkuleer en gedurende die dag warmte vanuit die vertrek onttrek. Die eksperiment het ’n minimum van 102 W/m3 warmte vanuit die galvaniseerde 1.87 m3 vertrek geabsorbeer, terwyl ’n baksteen vertrek van 120 m3, 22.7 W/m3 verkoeling benodig. Bykomstig tot die verkoelingstelsel verhit die sisteem 68 l water vanaf 24 °C to 62 °C gedurende ’n 8-uur periode in die dag, dus word 362Wenergie geabsorbeer. Die sisteem is ook getoets tydens winter toestande, die resultate was dieselfde as wat in die somer verkry is. Verder is daar ook bewys dat die sisteem sonder enige beheerstelsel kan funksioneer. Verder word daar aanbeveel dat hernubare energie bewuste ontwerpers in die toekoms meer aandag aan ruimte straling verkoeling skenk.

Essa dissertação aborda o tema do duplo em Dead of Night, bem como o duplo encontra as suas ressonâncias em outras áreas, como em literatura. O estudo procura verificar e identificar de que forma o tema do duplo aparece no filme. Além da análise do filme, será abordada a trajetória do diretor Alberto Cavalcanti, que iniciou a sua carreira no cinema francês, estendendo pela Inglaterra e Brasil. O filme se encontra no período em que o diretor trabalhava na Inglaterra e foi produzido em 1945. O trabalho se inicia com um breve histórico sobre a vida de Alberto Cavalcanti e sua trajetória no cinema. Em seguida, fizemos uma pesquisa sobre o tema duplo, enfatizando três grandes autores: Clement Rosset, Otto Rank e Nicole Bravo. A análise parte de um apanhado geral sobre o filme seguido pela análise dos cinco episódios que o compõem: The Hearse Driver, The Christmas Party, The Haunted Mirror, The Golfing Story e The Ventriloquist?s Dummy. A conclusão aponta para possíveis leituras deste filme, possibilidades estas que estão atreladas ao duplo.

Many automobile accidents are caused mainly by driver’s behavior and driving environment. The automotive companies are therefore paying attention on the development of vehicle safety auxiliary systems. The systems are divided into the passive and active safety equipments. The passive safety equipment includes safety seat belt, SRS, Anti-Lock Brake System and Breakable Steering Wheel, while the active safety equipment has also caught much attraction, such as VOLVO`s Blindspot Information System (BLIS), Volkswagen`s IAS and ATSHID headlight. All the devices are to improve the safety for drivers as well as pedestrians. Driver’s behavior and driving environment are highly concerned with driving safety. In recent days, the passive safety equipments are no longer satisfied with the requirement of the driving safety for people. Instead, the active safety system can ensure the driving safety to avoid car accidents. According to traffic data, there are high rate of car accidents at night than day time, which is caused by bad visibility because of bad weather conditions. Lots of automotive companies are engaged in developing Forward Looking Infrared Radar (FLIR) system, but the price is expensive. Nowadays, Image Intensification has effectively recognized object resulting from night time uncertainties. The study is to develop Driver’s Viewer Enhanced System (DVES) by using Image Intensification technique for night driving. With the advancement of electro-optical and night vision technology, DVES provides the driver with better distance, scene, and obstacles recognition for night driving, so car accidents are decreased. DVES’s function has been tested in the laboratory and practical automotive in this study. The results meet the requirement of driver. In addition, the price of DVES is less expensive than FLIR.
