Understanding the effects of Covid-19 through a life course lens

2020

Available online 22 July 2020. Other co-authors: ANTONUCCI, T. C., DYKSTRA, P. A., HECKHAUSEN, J., KUH, D., MAYER, K. U., MOEN, P., MORTIMER, J. T., MULDER, C. H., SMEEDING, T. M., VAN DER LIPPE, T., HAGESTAD, G. O., KOHLI, Martin, LEVY, R., SCHOON, I., & THOMSON, E. The Covid-19 pandemic is shaking fundamental assumptions about the human life course in societies around the world. In this essay, we draw on our collective expertise to illustrate how a life course perspective can make critical contributions to understanding the pandemic’s effects on individuals, families, and populations. We explore the pandemic’s implications for the organization and experience of life transitions and trajec…

Optical nonlinear correlation based on nonuniform subband decomposition

1999

We present a nonlinear correlation to improve the selectivity for optical pattern recognition. The approach is based on morphological correlation which involves a threshold decomposition concept. Hereby, we propose a subband decomposition in the Fourier domain to perform the threshold decomposition operation. We consider two frequency bands that give rise to two separate channels. We apply the morphological correlation to each channel using a localized threshold decomposition. Then, we define a two-channel morphological correlation. The final detection decision is made as a combination of both correlation outputs. The two-channel morphological correlation yields improved discrimination capa…

Jus percipiendi pecuniam: credito e rendite fra XIII e XIV secolo

2020

The article reconstructs the intellectual process through which the right to perceive annuities (jus percipiendi pecuniam) was identified. This conceptual and juridical instrument was of great importance for the functioning of an economy largely based on the circulation of annuities, such as that existing between the Middle Age and the Renaissance. At the centre of this intellectual process there were, on the one hand, the theory of the divided domunium, through which the dominium eminens was to be distinguished from the dominium utilis, and on the other the debate concerning the management of the res ecclesiae and the use of goods, which concentrated on the relations between usus-fructus a…

Kriminālās domāšanas profila aptaujas sākotnējā adaptācija Latvijā

2019

Pētījuma mērķis bija veikt pirmo adaptācijas posmu Latvijā Kriminālās domāšanas profila aptauju (Criminal Thninking Profile (CTP), Mitchell & Tafrate, 2011) un veikt tās ticamības un validitātes pārbaudi. Kriminālā domāšana ir izziņas process, kas balstās uz kriminālu dzīvesveidu (Walters & White, 1989, kā minēts Tafrate & Mitchell, 2014). Kriminālā domāšana ir atslēga kriminogēnajās vajadzībās, kas balstās uz psihiskajiem traucējumiem, kuri kalpo priekš racionalizācijas ,un iezīmējot aprises noziedzīgai uzvedībai un, kas var paredzēt atkārtotu likumpārkāpumu (Tangney, Mashek, & Stuewig, 2007; Walters, 2012, kā minēts Tangney, Dobbins, Stuewig & Schrader, 2017). Pētījumā tika izvirzīts jaut…

La nuova disciplina delle notificazioni all'imputato

2023

La Riforma Cartabia interviene sul tema delle notificazioni ripensando alle forme e rimarcandone il ruolo chiave nel- le dinamiche del processo penale. Il sistema che ne deriva è un sistema ibrido che, alternando modalità telemati- che e modalità tradizionali, ruota attorno a due meccanismi di snellimento dell’iter, e cioè gli avvisi e il domicilio dichiarato o eletto, che sembrano operare in controtendenza rispetto alla regola generale di favorire la conoscenza effettiva dell’atto, mettendo a serio rischio le garanzie in nome della tanto declamata ‘efficienza’. The Cartabia Reform intervenes on the issue of notifications by rethinking the forms and emphasizing their key role in the dynamic…

Moment-Axial Domain of Corroded R.C. Columns

2018

In the present paper, a simplified model to determine the moment-axial force domain of the cross-section of reinforced concrete columns subjected to corrosion process is presented. The model considers members with square and rectangular cross-sections and it accounts for cover spalling, buckling of longitudinal reinforcing bars, loss of bond of bar in tension, reduction of confinement pressures (due to the reduction of the area of stirrups and cracking of concrete induced by rust formation). The analytical expressions for prediction of the area reduction of steel, bond strength and critical load of longitudinal bars utilized were verified against experimental data available literature.

Application of Cell Culture for the Production of Bioactive Compounds from Sponges:  Synthesis of Avarol by Primmorphs from Dysidea avara

2000

Among all metazoan phyla, sponges are known to produce the largest number of bioactive compounds. However, until now, only one compound, arabinofuranosyladenine, has been approved for application in humans. One major obstacle is the limited availability of larger quantities of defined sponge starting material. Recently, we introduced the in vitro culture of primmorphs from Suberites domuncula, which contain proliferating cells. Now we have established the primmorph culture also from the marine sponge Dysidea avara and demonstrate that this special form of sponge cell aggregates produces avarol, a sesquiterpenoid hydroquinone, known to display strong cytostatic activity especially against ma…

Toll-like receptors are part of the innate immune defense system of sponges (demospongiae: Porifera).

2006

During evolution and with the emergence of multicellular animals, the need arose to ward off foreign organisms that threaten the integrity of the animal body. Among many different receptors that participate in the recognition of microbial invaders, toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an essential role in mediating the innate immune response. After binding distinct microbial components, TLRs activate intracellular signaling cascades that result in an induced expression of diverse antimicrobial molecules. Because sponges (phylum Porifera) are filter feeders, they are abundantly exposed to microorganisms that represent a potential threat. Here, we describe the identification, cloning, and deduced …
