Courbes de Bézier quadratiques et nombres complexes massiques

2017

International audience; Les courbes de Bézier quadratiques jouent un rôle fondamental pour la modélisation d'arcs de coniques. L'utili-sation de points massiques permet de modéliser des demi-coniques dans le plan affine euclidien ou des surfaces canal dans l'espace de Minkowski-Lorentz. L'utilisation des nombres complexes permet de simplifier beaucoup de raisonnements en géométrie et de simplifier l'utilisation des transformations affines planes. Dans cet article, nous définissons dans un premier temps les nombres complexes massiques et dans un second temps, nous modéli-sons des arcs de coniques en utilisant des courbes de Bézier rationnelles quadratiques avec des points complexes massiques…

Tunteet sävellysprosessissa : kuudesluokkalaisten oppilaiden käsitykset ja kokemukset musiikin tunnevaikutuksista, sekä musiikilliset työtavat ja rat…

2018

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää kuudesluokkalaisten käsityksiä ja kokemuksia musiikin tunnevaikutuksista, sekä heidän musiikillisia työtapojaan ja ratkaisujaan tunteiden välittämisessä. Tutkimuksessa haluttiin valaista musiikin tunnevaikutusten kenttää kuudesluokkalaisten elämismaailmassa, ja kiinnittää huomiota musiikkikasvatuksen mahdollisuuksiin, sekä tunnetaitojen hallinnan tärkeyteen hyvinvoinnin kannalta. Tutkimus toteutettiin eräässä jyväskyläläisen koulun kuudennessa luokassa (n=23). Oppilaat toteuttivat projektin, joka sisälsi tunteen kuvaamista sekä elokuvan että musiikin keinoin. Aineisto kerättiin puolistrukturoidulla teemahaastattelulla ryhmittäin, ja työskentelysessiot v…

An evaluation of cool season turfgrassess in order to identify the species and varieties most suitable for the Mediterranean environment

2004

The cultivars of cool season Graminae species diffusely used to establish turfgrasses, are grown in northern areas of Europe. The aim of the research described in this paper was to identify the turfgrass species and cultivars most suitable for the Mediterranean environment. The trial was carried out in 1999 and 2000 at the experimental farm “Parco d’Orleans” belonging to the Department A.C.E.P. of University of Palermo. During the trial sixty different cultivars of cool season turf species were compared – 20 cultivars of Festuca arundinacea Schreb., 20 cultivars of Poa pratensis L., and 20 cultivars of Lulium perenne L. The main biometric and qualitative parameters examined were ground cove…

Using Heart Rate Variability Methods for Health-Related Outcomes in Outdoor Contexts : A Scoping Review of Empirical Studies

2023

Heart rate variability (HRV) is a psychophysiological variable that is often used in applied analysis techniques to indicate health status because it provides a window into the intrinsic regulation of the autonomic nervous system. However, HRV data analysis methods are varied and complex, which has led to different approaches to data collection, analysis, and interpretation of results. Our scoping review aimed to explore the diverse use of HRV methods in studies designed to assess health outcomes in outdoor free-living contexts. Four database indexes were searched, which resulted in the identification of 17,505 candidate studies. There were 34 studies and eight systematic reviews that met t…

Do they stay or go? Analysis of international students in Finland

2021

The increase in international student mobility raises questions of how many international students choose to stay in their host country and the reasons why some stay and others leave. This study examines factors affecting international students to stay in Finland three years after graduation. Tracking 13 (years) graduating cohorts across national (Finland) data registries, we find family ties and labour market opportunities relate to an increased probability an international student stays in Finland three years after graduation. peerReviewed

TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE-GUIDED FOCUSED ULTRASOUND (TCMRGFUS) CON SCANNER DA 1.5T: NOTA TECNICA

2018

Scopo La terapia dei disordini neurologici mediante tcMRgFUS è stata effettuata utilizzando esclusivamente scanner RM da 3T. Utilizzando uno scanner RM da 1.5T la qualità delle sequenze morfologiche utilizzabili per la pianificazione di questi trattamenti è risultata essere soddisfacente utilizzando la bobina body RF (quella utilizzata con scanner 3T). Tuttavia l'SNR delle sequenze utilizzate per la termometria RM è risultato inferiore allo standard accettabile per i trattamenti. È stata quindi sviluppata una bobina a 2 canali per assicurare un adeguato SNR. Presentiamo il protocollo di imaging efficacemente utilizzato per eseguire procedure tcMRgFUS con il primo sistema mai integrato …

Remarks on negative interest rates

2016

Negative nominal interest rates have been observed in several segments of financial markets. Being only partly a result of supply and demand and mainly enforced by the central banks, negative interest rates are getting more and more popular. While it is relatively easy to identify the reasons for this quite strange phenomenon, the con-sequences, especially the long-term consequences, are not too clear for both scientists and ordinary observers. This paper is an attempt to formulate some remarks on causes, evidence, and possible effects of negative interest rates. A warning is issued, with respect to monetary policy and financial stability.
