Regression of high-dimensional angular momentum states of light
2023
The Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) of light is an infinite-dimensional degree of freedom of light with several applications in both classical and quantum optics. However, to fully take advantage of the potential of OAM states, reliable detection platforms to characterize generated states in experimental conditions are needed. Here, we present an approach to reconstruct input OAM states from measurements of the spatial intensity distributions they produce. To obviate issues arising from intrinsic symmetry of Laguerre-Gauss modes, we employ a pair of intensity profiles per state projecting it only on two distinct bases, showing how this allows to uniquely recover input states from the collect…
A novel exact representation of stationary colored Gaussian processes (fractional differential approach)
2010
A novel representation of functions, called generalized Taylor form, is applied to the filtering of white noise processes. It is shown that every Gaussian colored noise can be expressed as the output of a set of linear fractional stochastic differential equations whose solution is a weighted sum of fractional Brownian motions. The exact form of the weighting coefficients is given and it is shown that it is related to the fractional moments of the target spectral density of the colored noise.
Ensemble properties of securities traded in the NASDAQ market
2001
We study the price dynamics of stocks traded in the NASDAQ market by considering the statistical properties of an ensemble of stocks traded simultaneously. For each trading day of our database, we study the ensemble return distribution by extracting its first two central moments. According to previous results obtained for the NYSE market, we find that the second moment is a long-range correlated variable. We compare time-averaged and ensemble-averaged price returns and we show that the two averaging procedures lead to different statistical results.
R.C. columns strengthened by PBO-FRCM under axial force and bending moment
2017
Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) systems, also known as Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) are nowadays widely used as confining material to enhance both strength and deformation capacity of columns of seismic resistant r.c. frames. In the past, when carbon fiber was used in the textile, experimental results showed that the efficiency of the wrapping is limited by the connection between substrate and fiber, which is not as effective as when epoxy resins are used. To improve the strength of the connection between fibres and mortar binder in FRCM system, the use of p-Phenylene BenzobisOxazole (PBO), having a molecular structure capable of establishing chemical bonds with hydrated c…
Inner and outer voices in the present moment of family and network therapy
2008
Dialogue in the polyphony of inner and outer voices in the present moment of family therapy is analysed. In Western Lapland a focus on social networks and dialogues in the meeting with families has proved to be effective in psychotic crises.
Relating magnetization, structure and rheology in ferrofluids with multi-core magnetic nanoparticles
2020
Abstract Due to their magnetic moments solubilized magnetic nanoparticles are able to spontaneously assemble into dipolar mesostructures, which affect the flow behavior. Multi-core magnetic nanoparticles developed for biomedical applications have enhanced magnetic properties and show significant magnetoviscous effect, but the quantitative interpretation of this phenomenon is incomplete. We apply rheological measurements, magnetic granulometry and dimensional scaling to show the existence of a master curve for magnetorheology of these materials. Using the developed approach the magnetoviscous effect can now be interpreted in a unified way within the stochastic chain model.
High field magnetization of the colloidal Mn–Zn ferrite
1999
Abstract The magnetic properties of a hydrocarbon based colloid (stabilized by oleic acid) of polydisperse chemically co-precipitated Mn 0.5 Zn 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 particles are discussed in the paper. Two fractions are separated from an initial ferrofluid sample by centrifugation. X-ray diffraction measurements show the crystal structure of the particles and a broadened shape of the diffraction lines. Mean particle diameters 6.2 nm (the light fraction) and 9.7 nm (the heavy one) were determined by TEM measurements. The magnetization of the colloids is measured by VSM up to 12 T. A significant slope in the magnetization curves in the high field region is displayed for both samples in the temperatu…
Virtual simulation of an osseointegrated trans-humeral prosthesis: A falling scenario
2018
Abstract Introduction Traditional prosthetic solutions expose the amputee to numerous problems that limit his ability to safely perform the normal activities of daily life. In order to eliminate the problems related to the use of the traditional prosthesis with socket, a new technique was developed for fixing the prosthesis to the amputees based on the principle of osseointegration. The aim of this paper is to study and analyze the stress distribution on the interface between a trans-humeral osseointegrated prosthetic implant and the residual bone, identifying the most stressed areas and thus foreseeing possible failure phenomena of the entire prosthetic system and, after, to compare the st…
Design of RC joints equipped with hybrid trussed beams and friction dampers
2021
Abstract The challenge of this research consists in the first attempt to apply a dissipative friction connection to beam-to-column joints with semi-prefabricated Hybrid Steel-Trussed Concrete Beams (HSTCB) and RC pillars cast in-situ. Nowadays, HSTCBs are widely adopted in civil and industrial buildings and, therefore, it is required to evaluate their compliance with the capacity design criteria and their seismic energy dissipation capability. However, the design of the reinforcement of such beams usually lead to the adoption of large amount of steel within the panel zone which becomes potentially vulnerable to the effects of seismic cyclic actions and dramatically reduce the dissipation ca…
Gas-phase detection of HSOH: synthesis by flash vacuum pyrolysis of di-tert-butyl sulfoxide and rotational-torsional spectrum.
2003
Gas-phase oxadisulfane (HSOH), the missing link between the well-known molecules hydrogen peroxide (HOOH) and disulfane (HSSH), was synthesized by flash vacuum pyrolysis of di-tert-butyl sulfoxide. Using mass spectrometry, the pyrolysis conditions have been optimized towards formation of HSOH. Microwave spectroscopic investigation of the pyrolysis products allowed-assisted by high-level quantum-chemical calculations--the first measurement of the rotational-torsional spectrum of HSOH. In total, we have measured approximately 600 lines of the rotational-torsional spectrum in the frequency range from 64 GHz to 1.9 THz and assigned some 470 of these to the rotational-torsional spectrum of HSOH …
