Meeting the WHO 24-h guidelines among 2–6-year-old children by family socioeconomic status before and during the COVID-19 pandemic : a repeated cross…
2023
Background The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed guidelines for 24-h physical activity (PA), sedentary behaviour and sleep for young children. Lower socioeconomic status (SES) has been linked to a lower likelihood of meeting these guidelines. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) raised concerns about young children’s opportunities to meet the guidelines. The study focused on the prevalence of meeting the WHO’s 24-h guidelines on screen time (ST), PA and sleep among 2–6-year-old children, in association with family SES, before COVID-19 outbreak in 2019, and during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 in Finland. Methods Data were collected at three timepoints by an o…

Façonner la terre. Traditions techniques des potiers dans la vallée du Rhin supérieur (Xe-VIIIe siècle av. J.-C.)
2023
How was pottery made during the Bronze Age? The technological ceramic study carried out on 16 habitation and 3 funerary sites of the upper Rhine Valley and its surroundings, which date from the 10th to the 8th centuries BC, reveals an incredible variety among chaînes opératoires. Macrotraces observed on 829 ceramics are abundantly illustrated, and their interpretation is based on a review of numerous ethnographic and experimental reference papers. The chaînes opératoires are depicted by trees following a rigorous method of hierarchical data clustering. This allows technical traditions, which are inherited and transmitted among members of social- and spatial based communities, to be reconstr…
Iodination of antipyrine with [N–I–N]+ and carbonyl hypoiodite iodine(i) complexes
2023
A series of iodine(I) complexes, both known and new, were synthesised and the dependence of iodination reactivity on the identity of the Lewis bases and anions present was investigated. Using a previously established screening protocol based on the iodination of antipyrine to iodo-antipyrine, the capability of the iodine(I) species to perform the iodination was tested and compared, especially in relation to Barluenga's reagent, [I(pyridine)2]BF4. The results indicated that the identity of both the Lewis bases and the anion influence the iodination capability of the iodine(I) species, and that the less efficient reagents can deliver favourably comparable percentage conversions with longer re…

Inorganic Anion-Mediated Supramolecular Entities of 4-Amino-3,5-Bis(4-Pyridyl)-1,2,4-Triazole Salts Assisted by the Interplay of Noncovalent Interact…
2023
The development of new families of synthetic molecular systems projecting neutral, bi-, or multi-H-bonding donor units is significant to acquire the desired selectivity within the fascinating area of anion recognition. Here, we illustrate the reaction between a neutral 4-amino-3,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole ligand (L) with acidic solutions containing either chloride, bromide, nitrate, phosphate, iodide, sulfate, hexafluorosilicate, fluoride, tetrafluoroborate or perchlorate anions, yielding 16 new anion-mediated supramolecular entities, H2LCl2 (1), H2LBr2 (2), H2L(NO3)2 (3), HL(H2PO4) (4), H2L(H2PO4)2 (5), [H2L]2I4 (6), H2L(NO3)2 (7), H2L(SO4)·H2O (8), H2LSiF6 (9), H2LSiF6·2H2O (10), H2L…
Highly-parallelized simulation of a pixelated LArTPC on a GPU
2023
The rapid development of general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) is allowing the implementation of highly-parallelized Monte Carlo simulation chains for particle physics experiments. This technique is particularly suitable for the simulation of a pixelated charge readout for time projection chambers, given the large number of channels that this technology employs. Here we present the first implementation of a full microphysical simulator of a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) equipped with light readout and pixelated charge readout, developed for the DUNE Near Detector. The software is implemented with an end-to-end set of GPU-optimized algorithms. The alg…
Assessment of Cyber Security risks : A Smart Terminal Process
2023
In Finland, the connections to global maritime transportation logistics systems are an essential part of the national critical infrastructure. As a part of maritime logistics systems, the port's operations are important elements for global maritime traffic and the transportation supply chain. Digitalization of seaport services makes it possible to increase the efficiency of terminal systems in the logistic processes. At the same time, port logistic processes can notably reduce its CO2 emissions by optimizing port operations. The improvement of port processes relies very much on the development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) or Operatio…

The interest showed by the magalla (review) of the Academy of Arabic Language of Damascus towards the history of Jerusalem and Palestine, and their Islamic institutions, reveals an organic connection between two geographical areas (Syria and Palestine) which has never been lost. The main aim of this contribution is to shed light on some important aspects with regard to the history and the cultural life of Palestine, and especially of Jerusalem, through the analysis of a series of articles which were published in the Magalla at the end of 20th century.
Organisational Legitimation Strategies in Social Media : How Business Schools Address Declining Ranking
2023
Public relations scholarship has drawn on organisational legitimacy theory to show how organisations appeal to stakeholders’ acceptance of their existence and importance in society. Studies have shown how different types of organisations utilise communication strategies in social media to gain legitimacy. This chapter contributes to public relations research by examining how a sample of business schools implemented legitimation strategies in their social media posts when their legitimacy was threatened. The findings show that when ten world-class European business schools faced declining institutional rankings between 2016 and 2019, they made use of four legitimation strategies—authorisatio…
Literature, social media and questionnaire surveys identify relevant conservation areas for Carcharhinus species in the Mediterranean Sea
2023
Sharks support ecosystems’ health, but their populations are facing severe declines worldwide. Knowledge gaps on shark distribution and the negative human perception of them still represent a barrier to the implementation of effective conservation measures. Here we carried out a regional-scale analysis in the Mediterranean Sea using data on requiem shark catches and sightings available in the scientific literature and on social media platforms to: 1) depict the distribution of Carcharhinus species across the basin, 2) identify potentially relevant areas for their conservation, and 3) evaluate people’s attitude toward shark protection. In addition, we administered 112 questionnaires in one o…

Spreng (innenfor) grensene!
2023
I denne oppgaven undersøker jeg hvordan keyboardister kan tilrettelegge sine oppsett for å implementere sonisk variasjon og improvisasjon i sitt lydbilde. Oppgaven gjør rede for sonisk variasjon og improvisasjon fra en keyboardists perspektiv og viser gjennom aksjonsforskning hvordan denne typen improvisasjon henger sammen med bruk av musikkteknologi. Målet med oppgaven er todelt. For det første vil jeg belyse hvordan ulike former for teknologi kan kombineres og brukes til å oppnå et lydbilde med dybde og særpreg. Dette har jeg gjort ved å gjennomføre flere sykluser med forskning hvor jeg har brukt to teoretiske konsepter (timescales og affordances) og en sonisk palett som utgangspunkt for …

It covers the roles and the interactions of the professor and student in the following ways: (1) the historical situation, (2) the affective, social and bodily situation, and (3) the moral situation. This text analyzes women’s passion for philosophy as a quest for truth, as well as their partial alienation from the social practices of philosophy. It demonstrates that recognition, generosity, and care are central …
Potensielle årsakar til bidialektale språkpraksisar og syskenflokkar som bidialektale praksisfellesskap
2023
I prosessen med å tileigne seg eit talemål går språkbrukarar gjennom ein språkleg sosialiseringsprosess der ulike språklege sosialiseringsagentar og andre omkringliggjande faktorar gjer seg gjeldande. I løpet av den språklege sosialiseringsprosessen tek språkbrukarar del i ulike praksisfellesskap der dei samhandlar med sosialiseringsagentar med ulik posisjon og betyding. Syskenflokken kan potensielt vere eit særleg relevant praksisfellesskap. For nokre språkbrukarar vert resultatet av den språklege sosialiseringsprosessen det ein kan omtale som bidialektale språkpraksisar, som vil seie moglegheita og evna til å bruke og veksle mellom to ulike dialektar. Føremålet med denne oppgåva var å utf…

Il contributo inquadra una ricerca avviata nel 2021, presso l’Università di Palermo, finalizzata alla definizione di strategie e strumenti per la valutazione di attività neurodidattiche per lo sviluppo delle competenze metodologico-didattiche dell’insegnante rispetto a cinque aree di interesse neurodidattico: trasversale, cognitiva, socio-emotiva, espressiva e motoria. The boost provided by Brain-based studies entails reflection and self-reflection on methodological-didactic practices and choices. The contribution frames a research project started in 20…
Stationary, Oscillatory, Spatio-Temporal Patterns and Existence of Global Solutions in Reaction-Diffusion Models of Three Species
2023
The goal of my Ph.D. research is to analyze three species models in order to describe the behavior of an ecological community. In particular, two reaction-diffusion systems describing different local interactions between three species have been considered to obtain species coexistence, diversity, and distribution patterns. The first analyzed model describes intraguild predation: there are an IG-predator species, an IG-prey species, and a common resource species, which is shared by both of them. The IGP interaction is of Lotka-Volterra type, coupled with nonlinear diffusion, since we assume that the IG-prey moves towards lower density areas of the IG-predator. In this model, the extinction o…

The obstacles to the development of secondary education in Spain, 1857-1900
2023
Human capital is one of the pillars of economic growth and development. However, the economic analysis of human capital presents a large number of difficulties, especially since the mechanisms that allow the accumulation of this type of capital, skills and knowledge, are intrinsic to human nature and, in general, are difficult to determine. But, in addition, the formation of human capital results from formal and informal learning and occurs throughout life, so its measurement is a challenge. Trying to overcome the drawbacks that the analysis of human capital poses, some researchers have proposed the differentiation of human capital into types or levels in order to see its differential effec…
10. trinn-elevers arbeid med representasjoner av funksjoner
2023
Representasjoner har stor plass i matematikkfaget, særlig representasjoner knyttet til funksjoner. Ofte kan ulike matematiske begreper være svært abstrakte, og representasjoner er da nødvendig for å få tak i deler av matematikken. Temaet for denne masteroppgaven er bruk av og oversettelser mellom ulike representasjoner av funksjoner blant elever på 10. trinn. Vi har observert og samlet inn skriftlige besvarelser fra to klasser, hvor elevene til sammen ble delt inn i ni grupper. Ved to av disse gruppene har observasjonen foregått ved hjelp av videopptak. Bakgrunnen for denne studien er følgende forskningsspørsmål: 1. Hva karakteriserer 10. trinn-elevers oversettelser mellom ulike representas…
Fossilized Bronze, Invisible Bronze
2023
The systematic field surveys carried out since the beginning of the 2000s around the fortified site of the Camp du Château at Salins-les-Bains (Jura, France) have led to the discovery of 74 Bronze Age hoards, a density rarely observed in France. Dating from the beginning of the Middle Bronze Age to the Late Bronze Age, this dataset is unique as it provides detailed information on the composition of the hoards and their distribution within a defined territorial and chronological framework.These hoards are mainly made up of fragments, as around 90% of the objects are broken. This is deliberate and seems to correspond to a codified ritual of destruction which could be related to the notion of …
Dead-time impact on the harmonic distortion and conversion efficiency in a three-phase five-level Cascaded H-Bridge inverter: mathematical formulatio…
2023
To avoid leg short-circuit in inverters, dead time must be introduced on leg gate signals. Dead time affects the inverter output voltage fundamental harmonic amplitude, voltage harmonic distortion and inverter efficiency by introducing additional voltage drops. In this regard, dead time effects have been widely investigated for traditional two-level three-phase voltage source inverters in the literature but not extensively for multilevel topology structures. This paper provides a detailed analysis of dead time impact on the harmonic distortion and efficiency of Cascaded H-Bridges Multilevel Inverters (CHBMIs). For this purpose, a general mathematical formulation to determine voltage drop du…

Pratiche anti-oppressive e popolazione LGBTQAI+: riflessioni per la formazione in servizio sociale
2023
The aim of this work is to contribute to the Italian debate, firstly through a reconstruction of the main assumptions of Critical Social Work (CSW) whose analyses provide social workers with a critical awareness and reflexivity without which it would not be possible to link their professional practice and the daily challenges that LGBTQAI+ people face with the systemic and structural aspects of disadvantage and oppression that characterise contemporary societies. In this sense, CSW - applied to the fields of sexual orientations, gender identities and non-normative sexualities - is configured as an overall practice that invests the identities of social workers and users and their symbolic an…
Une crise dans la production métallique de l’âge du Bronze final autour de 900 av. J.-C.
2023
La fin du Xe siècle av. J.-C. correspond à une subdivision mineure au sein des principaux systèmes chronologiques d’Europe continentale (transition Bronze final IIIa-IIIb ou Ha B1-B2/3). Il s’agit pourtant d’une période de rupture majeure dans les productions métalliques. L’aspect des objets en bronze, notamment ceux de la sphère personnelle (épées, parures, couteaux…), change radicalement. La riche ornementation graphique répandue jusqu’alors laisse place à des objets beaucoup plus épurés et standardisés. Ce changement rapide doit être mis en relation avec des variations au sein des systèmes de production et le développement de l’utilisation de moules permanents, auparavant réservés à la p…

Experimental investigation on tensile and shear bond behaviour of Basalt-FRCM composites for strengthening calcarenite masonry elements
2023
The use of Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) composites for structural retrofit has seen an increased interest among the scientific community, during the last decade. Various studies have revealed their effectiveness as external retrofitting technique of masonry elements, offering numerous advantages respect to the well know Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) in terms of compatibility with masonry support, reversibility of intervention and sustainability. Despite the growing use, the characterization of FRCM mechanical behaviour is still an open issue, due to numerous uncertainties involved in test set-up adopted and fibre-mortar combination. The proposed experimental study aims to i…
What is the optimal environment for the long-term physical development of the young elite rugby player? : Study of the physical characteristics and c…
2023
To ensure long-term sporting success, a governing body such as French Rugby Union (FFR) must implement a physical development plan from youth to senior player. In this way, federal academies have been created for players from 15 years old (category under 16 (U16)), to 17 years old and then the development continues in clubs. Throughout their youth career, players might experience U18 or U20 teams, selection which are the two only national youth French team. The aim of this thesis was to describe the physical development of young French rugby players from their entry into national pathway (U16) to U20. To achieve this, we first described the anthropometric and physical characteristics of pla…
