ChemInform Abstract: Selecting Speed-Dependent Pathways for a Programmable Nanoscale Texture by Wet Interfaces

2013

The realization of well-defined and ordered structures on the nanoscale is a main issue in nanoscience and nanotechnology, biotechnology and other related fields like plastic or organic electronics. Among the bottom-up approaches, to date, self-assembly (equilibrium aggregates) received a major attention. In spite of this, far from equilibrium conditions allow for the generation of a wider landscape of organized systems depending on the set of control parameters employed. Under an adaptation vision of the structures, here we report some case studies showing how it is possible to programme and control the nanoscale features of ordered super- or supra-aggregates at wet interfaces by modulatin…

The modulation transfer function and signal-to-noise ratio of different digital filters: a technical approach.

2011

The aim of this study was to illustrate the influence of digital filters on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and modulation transfer function (MTF) of digital images. The article will address image pre-processing that may be beneficial for the production of clinically useful digital radiographs with lower radiation dose.Three filters, an arithmetic mean filter, a median filter and a Gaussian filter (standard deviation (SD) = 0.4), with kernel sizes of 3 × 3 pixels and 5 × 5 pixels were tested. Synthetic images with exactly increasing amounts of Gaussian noise were created to gather linear regression of SNR before and after application of digital filters. Artificial stripe patterns with defin…

Eudontomyzon danfordi (Regan, 1911) Species Populations Ecological Status in Maramureş Mountains Nature Park (Romania)

2015

Abstract The Eudontomyzon danfordi characteristic habitats state of Maramureş Mountains Nature Park varies greatly, 19.05% are in excellent conservation status, 47.62% are in good/average status and 33.33% are in a partially degraded condition. The identified human impact categories which induced the decreasing of Eudontomyzon danfordi species habitat state in the studied area are: poaching, minor riverbeds morphodynamic changings, liquid and solid natural flow disruption, destruction of riparian trees and bush vegetation, habitat fragmentation-fish populations isolation, and organic/mining pollution activities.

La relazione tra il kata podas e le traduzioni di Taleleo dei rescritti in latino del Codex

2013

Il contributo mira a dimostrare, attraverso il confronto tra le traduzioni letterali di Taleleo e quelle dell'anonimo autore del kata podas, che la scelta dell'antecessore di cambiare metodo di insegnamento e non dettare più proprie traduzioni letterali dopo il terzo libro del Codice, non dipese da ragioni di metodo di insegnamento (come sostenuto in dottrina) ma da esigenze pratiche, legate al poco tempo avuto a disposizione per la redazione del commentario al secondo Codice di Giustiniano.

Volatile constituents of aerial parts of three endemic Centaurea species from Turkey: Centaurea amanicola Hub.-Mor., Centaurea consanguinea DC. and C…

2008

The volatile constituents of the aerial parts of Centaurea amanicola Hub.-Mor., Centaurea consanguinea DC. and Centaurea ptosimopappa Hayek were extracted by hydrodistillation and analysed by GC and GC-MS. Altogether 94 components were identified. Sesquiterpenoids, fatty acids and carbonylic compounds were the most abundant components in the oils. Hexadecanoic acid and (Z,Z )-9,12-octadecadienoic acid were the main fatty acids in all the examined samples, that showed different patterns of composition. The study on the biological activity of the oils showed an action mainly against the Gram-positive pathogens.

Rodło Archive Collection

The Rodło Archive collection is one of the most valuable collections in the Library of the University of Opole. Some of the documents date back to the first years of the Union’s of Poles in Germany activity. It was the Polish organization in Germany, existing since 1922.The Archive was established on the initiative of Edmund Osmańczyk (Polish journalist, political scientist and politician, activist of the Polish minority in Germany ) and his assistant Helena Lehr. The time limit of the Archive is 1960 / 1970–1990. In 1999, the resource was donated to the University of Opole by Helena Lehr. Since then, it has been stored and made available in the reading room of the UO Main Library. Archival…

Orto Botanico

The University of Palermo’s Botanical Garden is one of the most important Italian academic institutions. This enormous outdoor museum can boast over 200 years of activity and is responsible for the study and diffusion of innumerable plant species in Sicily, in Europe and throughout the Mediterranean basin, many of which come from tropical and subtropical regions. Today, the Garden is particularly noteworthy for the large variety of species and the expressivity of the many floras it hosts.

The applicability of the indicators proposed by the European and national regulatory framework for the verification of the advancement of the plans: …

2014

Indicators are essential operational tools for the preparation of plans, to monitor their progress and for the ex-post verification of the results achieved. As it is known, there is a large corpus of indicators, both at Community and national Italian level, to which designers and planners can refer. However, it remains to verify the effectiveness of general validity parameters in describing the progress of the implementation of plans, which must be necessarily compared with more limited territorial situations. This paper addresses this problem, with reference to the Energy and Environmental Plan of the Sicilian Region (PEARS), comparing the themes proposed at European (Eurostat) and the Ita…
