Thermal conductivity of half-Heusler superlattices
2014
Thin films and superlattices (SLs) of TiNiSn and ZrHfNiSn layers have been grown by dc magnetron sputtering on MgO (100) substrates to reduce the thermal conductivity, aiming for improvement of the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT. The thermal conductivity of 1 Wm−1K−1 was measured by the differential 3ω method for an SL with a periodicity of 8.8 nm. In addition to x-ray diffraction analysis of the SL crystal structure, smooth interfaces were confirmed by scanning/transmission electron microscopy.
Embodiment e percezione dello spazio alle origini della cultura indoeuropea
2018
La costruzione dell’identità scaturisce dall’esperienza corporea e dalla sua concreta rappresentazione nello spazio. Lo studio degli universali del linguaggio in relazione ai sistemi di coordinate spaziali utilizzati nelle lingue del mondo ha recentemente attirato l'attenzione della ricerca nell’ambito non solo linguistico, ma anche delle neuroscienze (Diessel 2013: 687; Kemmerer 2010). In particolare, la letteratura esistente sulla tipologia delle espressioni spaziali è tradizionalmente basata sull’assunto che il sistema di riferimento deittico o egocentrico in uso nelle lingue europee moderne costituisca un universale linguistico e culturale. Anche la tradizione filosofica, da Kant (1768)…
La transición española : ¿qué sabe el alumnado de 1º de bachillerato?
2020
El presente artículo es el resultado del análisis de una encuesta realizada a 79 estudiantes de 1º de Bachillerato sobre la transición española. Mediante esta investigación se quiere acreditar, con metodología cuantitativa, los conocimientos e ideas que el alumnado encuestado tiene acerca de ese periodo histórico tras la realización de la Educación Secundaria. Para ello se ha realizado una encuesta con variedad de preguntas entre las cuales se han incluido algunas relacionadas entre sí para comprobar posibles contradicciones en las respuestas. La encuesta abarca diferentes cuestiones: desde personajes históricos hasta actores más globales como diferentes organizaciones o movilizaciones soci…
Quality Assurance and Support Measures for Solar Cooling on System Level
2016
Abstract Within the IEA SHC Task 48 “Quality assurance and support measures for Solar Cooling” the analysis and evaluation of the systems has been one of the four main focuses. Here the activities are including the lab- and field-based characterization of the systems, the definition and application of performance figures, a guideline for a reliable monitoring procedure including methods for automated error detection and an updated overview on worldwide installed DEC systems including hints and good practice examples. They are furthermore leading to three different easy-to-use tools for solar cooling systems: The LCA tool considers environmental and energetic values for the evaluation, the P…
Full characterization of low-noise HEMTs using only noise figure measurements
1993
A method for the complete characterization of microwave transistors in terms of noise, gain and scattering parameters using a computer-controlled noise figure measuring set-up only is presented. Selection of the optimum measuring conditions, all the steps of the experimental procedure, the data collecting and processing to derive all the parameters, are fully driven by an original (unpublished) software, even without the presence of an (unskilled) operator. Results are presented about the complete characterization of a series of ten pseudomorphicHEMTs in the 8-16 GHz range. The S-parameters are also compared with those measured by an ANA.
The Bias toward the Right Side of Others Is Stronger for Hands than for Feet
2021
As shown by a series of previous studies, ambiguous human bodies performing unimanual or unipedal actions tend to be perceived more frequently as right-handed or right-footed rather than left-handed or left-footed, which indicates a perceptual and attentional bias toward the right side of others&rsquo
Mapping the political toponymy of educational namescapes: A quantitative analysis of Romanian school names
2019
Abstract This study sets out to map the political toponymy of Romanian schooling network. Starting from the theoretical premise that national memory is toponymically inscribed, inter alia, on a series of public organizations that form an institutional namescape, the paper reads the Romanian historical memory through the looking glass of school names. Exhaustive data was collected for the Romanian secondary schools bearing a nominal identity (N = 2850). Data were analyzed in terms of the ethnic and gender distribution, the social (occupational), spatial, and historical structures of the Romanian educational namescape. Our findings reveal that the political toponymy of the Romanian schooling …
Funzionamento del codice retorico e contenuti ideologici propri dell’autore: Libanio
2006
Through the internal analysis of Libanius of Antioch's Orations 46, 56 and 57, the work attempted to distinguish between the application and functioning of the rhetorical code and the author's own content, between rhetorical devices and ideological assumptions. The study of the density of rhetorical figures is the method of analysis used to verify the objectivity of the speaker's parrhesia
La ceramica figurata lilibetana "in added colour": breve nota di riesame
2023
The paper offers a contribution to the study of Lilibeo’s figured vases, which make extensive use of added color. The examination of some contexts allows us to clarify the old idea of a derivation of the Lilibetane vases from the workshops of Lipari, due to a displacement of artisans who would operate first in Lipari and then in Lilibeo (like the Swans Painter). It is not completely excludes the movement of craftsmen due to destructions or political changes. However it reconstructs complex interactions in which a main role had to play the influence and the action of medium exercised by the same imported artifacts (Lipari vases, mainly, but not only).
Neptuno Alegórico: emblemático arco en la obra de sor Juana
2013
ABSTRACT: Frequently but unevenly valued, sor Juana Ines de la Cruz’s (1648-1695) Neptuno alegorico [Allegorical Neptune] has received increased attention in recent years, as though —by virtue of its nature as «ephemeral art»— «that» art (emblematic) had become increasingly more meaningful than the fugacious situation from which it emerged. An exceptional text, the design of the triumphal archway that welcomed the new viceroy Tomas Antonio de la Cerda and his wife Maria Luisa Manrique de Lara in 1680, reveals not only the importance that sor Juana had already attained, to a great extent, as a writer, but also, and more emphatically, it shows the relevance of her public figure and, in a prog…
