    Childhood in the works of Silvina Ocampo and Alejandra Pizarnik

    This thesis explores childhood as theme and perspective in the Argentine cuentista and poet Silvina Ocampo (1903-1993) and traces this thematic and vital link to the Argentine poet Alejandra Pizamik (1936-1972). The study looks at childhood not only in relation to their literary texts but also in the writers' construction of self-identity within their socio-literary context, and at the role played by visual art in their aesthetic. Chapter 1 contrasts Silvina with her elder sister Victoria Ocampo through their differing literary appropriation of a shared childhood. It distinguishes Ocampo from Adolfo Bioy Casares and Jorge Luis Borges in terms of her fictional logic and her treatment of games, drawing comparisons instead with Julio Cortdzar. Chapter 2 undertakes close reading of various Ocampo texts, including some for children, in order to explore her vision of childhood through nostalgia, adult-child power relationships, aging and rejuvenation, and moments of initiation or imitation. Chapter 3 turns to Pizarnik and the myth of the child-poet. It analyses her child personae through Andre Breton's Surrealism, Jean Cocteau and Octavio Paz, through her borrowings from Alice in Wonderland and Nadja, and through her obsession with madness, death, orphanhood, violation and transgression. Chapter 4 is comparative. It outlines the context in which Ocampo and Pizamik's passionate friendship developed, and considers Pizamik's essay on Elpecado mortal. It then explores their broad mutual literary and thematic affinities. My conclusion is that Ocampo's works achieve equilibrium between childhood and age, whereas Pizarnik's much-discussed poetic crisis of exile from language itself parallels her deep sense of anxiety at being exiled from the world of childhood. This thesis contributes to the study of Argentine literature by drawing revealing comparisons between two key writers through their shared obsession with childhood, arguing that an understanding of their attitudes to childhood is fundamental to appreciating fully their work. I refer to unpublished letters of Ocampo, material from private interviews, photographs and relevant paintings by Leonor Fini, Alicia Carletti and others

    A multi-physics and multi-scale numerical approach to microcracking and power-loss in photovoltaic modules

    No full text
    A multi-physics and multi-scale computational approach is proposed in the present work to study the evolution of microcracking in polycrystalline Silicon (Si) solar cells composing photovoltaic (PV) modules. Coupling between the elastic and the electric fields is provided according to an equivalent circuit model for the PV module where the electrically inactive area is determined from the analysis of the microcrack pattern. The structural scale of the PV laminate (the macro-model) is coupled to the scale of the polycrystals (the micro-model) using a multiscale nonlinear finite element approach where the macro-scale displacements of the Si cell borders are used as boundary conditions for the micro-model. Intergranular cracking in the Si cell is simulated using a nonlinear fracture mechanics cohesive zone model (CZM). A case-study shows the potentiality of the method, in particular as regards the analysis of the microcrack orientation and distribution, as well as of the effect of cracking on the electric characteristics of the PV modul

    Estrategias de comunicación y participación para el diseño e implementación de políticas públicas que incidan en el desarrollo del clúster del cacao en el departamento de Arauca, Colombia

    El clúster cacaotero en el departamento de Arauca, Colombia, a pesar de la alta calidad del cacao producido, enfrenta desafíos que dificultan alcanzar su pleno potencial competitivo. En este sentido, el sector está limitado por la falta de infraestructura, tecnologías modernas y una adecuada estrategia de comercialización. Por ende, la implementación de políticas públicas centradas en la comunicación y participación activa de los actores locales y gubernamentales podría mejorar la competitividad y sostenibilidad del sector. Así, una posible solución implica una mayor integración de los pequeños productores, junto con la mejora en la infraestructura y las estrategias de comercialización, lo que permitiría al cacao de Arauca posicionarse de manera más efectiva en los mercados nacionales e internacionales.The cocoa cluster in the department of Arauca, Colombia, despite the high quality of the cocoa produced, faces challenges that hinder its full competitive potential. In this regard, the sector is constrained by a lack of infrastructure, modern technologies, and an adequate marketing strategy. Therefore, the implementation of public policies focused on communication and active participation of local and governmental stakeholders could enhance the sector's competitiveness and sustainability. Thus, a possible solution involves greater integration of small-scale producers, along with improvements in infrastructure and marketing strategies, which would enable Arauca's cocoa to position itself more effectively in national and international markets
