We're biologically wired to, more or less, follow the pattern of the sun. Light in general, especially blue light, suggests to our brain we should be awake, and darkness suggests sleep. But idk if we could stay up 48 hours and then sleep for 15, I don't think our bodies are built to function like that. We might eventually adjust to follow the new pattern, but it certainly wouldn't be any time soon after arriving on the planet
