Improving the sustainability of transportation: environmental and functional benefits of right-turn by pass lanes at roundabouts
2015
The functional performances of conventional roundabouts (single-lane and multi-lane) and innovative roundabouts (spiral, flower, C and turbo) can be improved through right-turn bypass lanes controlled by stop, yield or free-flow signs. The article presents evaluations of the emissions of air pollutants (carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particle pollution (PM10 and PM2.5)), fuel consumption and construction, management, energetic and environmental costs in roundabouts without or with bypass lanes (controlled by stop, yield or free-flow). The suggested methodology has a general character and can be applied as a multi-parametric criterion for choosing road intersections, although, in the prese…
Large solutions for nonlinear parabolic equations without absorption terms
2012
In this paper we give a suitable notion of entropy solution of parabolic $p-$laplacian type equations with $1\leq p<2$ which blows up at the boundary of the domain. We prove existence and uniqueness of this type of solutions when the initial data is locally integrable (for $1<p<2$) or integrable (for $p=1$; i.e the Total Variation Flow case).
Comparison between whole blood viscosity measured and calculated in subjects with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and in patients …
2021
BACKGROUND: in this study, with a re-evaluation of the hemorheological determinants previously described in MGUS subjects and in MM patients, we have detected the calculated whole blood viscosity, according whether to the hematocrit and total plasma protein concentration (de Simone formula) or to the haematocrit and plasma fibrinogen level (Merrill formula), and a marker of the erythrocyte aggregation (albumin/fibrinogen level). METHODS: data were expressed as means±standard deviation. Student’s t test for unpaired data was used to compare MGUS subjects and MM patients. The correlation coefficient between mean erythrocyte aggregation (MEA) and hematocrit (Ht) was evaluated in MGUS, MM and M…
Il potere dell’architettura. L’ideologia di regime all’Esposizione Internazionale di Parigi 1937
2014
The political crackdown during the 20th Century finds in the International Events a special place for the hosting Countries to spread their ideologies to the visitors and to all the other Countries attending the event. National Pavilions become the subject of propaganda, and their architectural language became an important part of the collective identity’s reclaimed logic, even if it wasn’t always real. Paris International Exposition of 1937 is a paradigmatic case: it’s a mirror of that time and of the prewar period’s international tensions. Born under the auspices of peace, it finally results the most relevant expression of the relation between Power and Architecture.
Sulla fallibilità della società scissa nella scissione totale
2020
La pronuncia in esame ripercorre i termini dell'annoso dibattito circa la natura giuridica della scissione, con i due contrapposti orientamenti, quello (sposato dai ricorrenti) che attribuisce alla scissione natura di modificazione del contratto sociale, con la conseguenza che la società che vi procede non possa dirsi estinta, proseguendo i relativi rapporti nelle società beneficiarie; e l'altro che, invece, ritiene di attribuire all'operazione di scissione natura traslativa, con efficacia estintivocostitutiva. Al riguardo la Corte di Cassazione preferisce tuttavia un approccio pragmatico, che guardi piuttosto specificamente al tema della fallibilità della società scissa una volta cancellat…
Il poliziotto di un regime totalitario. Vita e carriera di Giuseppe Gueli
2013
The aim of this essay is to retrace Giuseppe Gueli’s life and career: a police offi cer (member of the P.S., the Italian public safety), who had formed during the last years of the liberal period, and who went through Italian Fascism and its development into a totalitarian regime. Beginning his career alongside Cesare Mori, Gueli fi lled in fact relevant positions within the Italian police as it had been organized by Arturo Bocchini: at fi rst in Alto Adige (South Tyrol) to set up the awkward system of the border police, in the Thirties Gueli moved to Sicily where he led a second repression campaign against the mafi a and fi nally, during the Forties, he became chief of the Special Inspecto…

Introduzione di "La Grande Guerra nella Stampa Mondiale"
2020
Il presente libro si configura come un ulteriore prodotto del Network Internazionale Memità che vuole rendere omaggio al centenario della Prima Guerra Mondiale attraverso l’analisi della misura in cui la stampa abbia giocato un ruolo significativo nella costruzione di un’immagine del conflitto ad uso e consumo propagandistico dei governi di riferimento. La stampa di quel periodo si è resa protagonista della narrazione del conflitto e, per la sua natura di strumento di divulgazione, in essa è possibile riscontrare la massima porosità tra il concetto linguaggio e quello di ideologia. Il discorso giornalistico si configura, quindi, come uno dei mezzi d’elezione in cui viene esercitato sul lett…
Mid-infrared and Raman spectrometry for quality control of pesticide formulations
2005
This article deals with recent developments in the use of vibrational spectrometry for the quantitative analysis of active components in commercial pesticide formulations. We review the techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and FT-Raman spectrometries, and measurement modes, such as stopped flow or flow injection. FTIR is being used increasingly in the determination of pesticides in agrochemical products because of its relatively short analysis time. However, FT-Raman spectrometry provides direct analysis of solid and aqueous samples. It is therefore clear that these techniques enable fast, non-destructive, precise and accurate measurements, so vibrational spectrometry appea…
Chemical and spectroscopic characteristics of the wood of Vitis vinifera cv. Sangiovese affected by esca disease.
2009
Chemical and spectroscopic analyses ((13)C cross-polarization-magic angle spinning NMR and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies) were carried out on the wood of Vitis vinifera cv. Sangiovese with brown-red discoloration and black streaks caused by esca disease. The analyses of the brown-red wood revealed the destruction of hemicelluloses and noncrystalline cellulose as well as modifications in the pectic and ligninic wood fractions. The pectic fraction consisted of carbohydrates associated with polyphenols. The lignin fraction exhibited only a few changes in the aromatic systems and a partial demethylation, and it appeared to be associated with condensed phe…
