MULTICRITERIA ANALYSIS – INSTRUMENT FOR AN ACCURATE ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF THE SERVICE SECTOR ON THE ECONOMY

2013

The current paper represents an attempt to introduce multicriteria analysis as an efficient instrument to prove that the development of services in Romania has a major impact on all aspects of our economy and represents the right path to pursue in terms of economic growth, on a medium and long term basis.The paper presents a general approach to multicriteria analysis as a means to successfully reveal the impact of the service sector on the economy of Romania. Several advantages as well as limits are presented, along with a brief presentation of the concept of composite synergy of services, corollary of the multicriteria analysis.

A Locked Intraosseous Nail for Transverse Patellar Fractures: A Biomechanical Comparison with Tension Band Wiring Through Cannulated Screws.

2018

Background Displaced transverse patellar fractures require open reduction and internal fixation. State-of-the-art stabilization techniques are tension band wiring (TBW) using Kirschner wires or cannulated screws. These techniques are associated with high rates of secondary fracture displacement, implant migration, implant prominence, wound-healing disturbances, and the need for implant removal. Recently, a locked intraosseous patellar nail prototype was developed. The aim of the present study was to investigate the biomechanical performance of this nail compared with TBW using cannulated screws. Methods Seven paired fresh-frozen human cadaveric knees were stripped of all soft tissues except…

Influence of sutures configuration on the strength of tendon-patch joints for rotator cuff tears treatment

2019

Abstract Purpose Massive rotator cuff tears are common in the aging population. The incidence of failed rotator cuff repairs is still quite high, especially in the treatment of full-thickness tears or revision repairs. In this context, natural and synthetic meshes can be used as augmentation scaffolds or as devices to close the gap between a retracted tendon and the bone. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the ultimate tensile strength of different tendon-patch joints in order to consider their use in the treatment of massive cuff tears. Materials and methods Porcine tendons and a synthetic low-density polypropylene mesh have been used. A preliminary study on the tensile strength of te…

“Constancia”. Dalla Sicilia a New York un esempio metodologico per la valorizzazione delle collezioni ecclesiastiche

2022

Il contributo si offre come proposta metodologica ai fini della valorizzazione delle collezioni diocesane partendo dall’esperienza della mostra “Constancia. Donne al potere nell’impero mediterraneo di Federico II”, curata dagli autori, insieme alla prof. Di Natale, all’Istituto Italiano di Cultura di New York nei mesi di marzo e aprile 2022. Il testo illustra il percorso che ha condotto all’elaborazione del progetto curatoriale, a partire dall’ottavo centenario della morte di Costanza d’Aragona cui sono state correlate altre tre Costanza rispettivamente madre, figlia e nipote di Federico II di Svevia, offrendo così un originale taglio al femminile e un resoconto delle quattro donne al poter…

Introduzione. Il suono delle cose

2018

This paper introduces the book of the theoretical texts by the composer Federico Incardona (Palermo, 1958-2006), collected and put in order by his students, now stored in the musicological library of Palermo University; it draws a concept map to guide the reader into Incardona’s labyrinthine path. The fundamental concepts, highlighted and analyzed, are: the “inaudito” (what you never heard) as the result of a research in which the composer is involved even physically; the “sign”, as a tool to objectify the unheard; the “tone row” as the order of notes obtained by their bonds with the sensations and experiences: the epiphany of the sound of things: the “tradition” as “permanent revolution”, …

Gender, identity and representation in video games : an elective discourse-oriented course for Finnish EFL upper secondary school students

2015

Suomen koulujen opetussuunnitelmat pyrkivät toteuttamaan ja edistämään tasa-arvoa, mutta tasa-arvon toteutuminen koulujen arjessa vaatii vielä työtä. Samaan aikaan videopeleistä on tullut suosittu harrastus nuorten ja aikuisten keskuudessa, mutta sekä pelit että peleihin liittyvä keskustelu ovat tasa-arvon suhteen jälkijunassa. Pelaaminen ei ole enää yksinomaan nuorten poikien harrastus. Monet oppijat sukupuoleen katsomatta pelaavat erilaisia pelejä ja osallistuvat pelejä koskevaan keskusteluun. Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena on tuottaa lukio-opetukseen tarkoitettu kurssimateriaalipaketti, jonka avulla kuka tahansa opettaja pystyy lähestymään naisten representaatiota videopeleissä …

Thinking Narratively. Between Novel-Essay and Narrative Essay

2022

What is the connection between philosophical enquiries and storytelling in contemporary narrative? Is it possible to outline some features of a so-called philosophical fiction in Western literature throughout the last two centuries? This book aims to provide a plural answer, hosting extensive essays by seven young researchers coming from different fields (Theory of literature, German, American, Russian and Italian contemporary literature, history and evolution of the essayistic form). A short The volume is addressed to all those with a strong interest in both evolution of philosophical speech and history of the novel and has a strong vocation to promote interdisciplinarity in literary studi…

"Leggere" e valutare la fiaba cinematografica

2008

Per rintracciare parallelismi e sinergie tra la narrazione filmica e la narrazione letteraria occorre, da un lato, analizzare strumenti, modalità e codici, dall'altro lato, accertare elementi di continuità tra i due modi diversi di raccontare e di rappresentare la realtà, per mettere in evidenza quanto sia importante favorire l'integrazione di diversi tipi di linguaggio. Ci si è proposti, in prospettiva esplorativa, di identificare modalità e livelli di analisi di opere narrative di genere fiabesco trasposte in films. Per stimolare in alunni di scuola primaria il piacere di ricreare e manipolare il prodotto filmico, abbiamo ipotizzato un piano di intervento didattico che consentisse loro la…

Alessandro Emmanuele Marvuglia (1771-1845)

2007

Il saggio è l’esito di un’approfondita ricerca sull’architetto palermitano Alessandro Emmanuele Marvuglia (1771-1845), figlio del più noto Giuseppe Venanzio (1729-1814). La ricerca ha consentito di inquadrare l’importante personalità in maniera molto più ampia di come non si sia stato fatto fino ad allora, così da valutare la caratura del personaggio anche nell’ambio del processo di diffusione della cultura neoclassica a partire dalle accademie romane, come quella della Pace di cui il Marvuglia fu un protagonista. La revisione del materiale bibliografico alla luce di documentazione archivistica inedita (tra cui numerosi disegni autografi) ha dato luogo anche ad alcune novità tra le quali i …
