Ottimizzazione delle prestazioni di una rete stradale tramite l’unificazione del sistema della segnaletica

2010

L’argomento principale di questa tesi si manifesta nella soddisfazione della necessità di armonizzare la segnaletica stradale verticale europea, definendo una strategia di minimizzazione dei costi di sostituzione complessivi della cartellonistica non uniforme, per contribuire a migliorare i livelli di sicurezza e di soddisfacimento dell’utenza dell’infrastruttura stradale. Una maggiore uniformità della segnaletica stradale permetterebbe ai conducenti impegnati nei traffici transfrontalieri su gomma di dover recepire un minor carico di informazioni visive, facendo riferimento ad un numero minore di segnali stradali, in quanto armonizzati con quelli dei loro paesi di provenienza. Altro scopo …

Luigi Farrauto, 旅行者设计师 / Luigi Farrauto, travelling designer

2010

Luigi Farrauto成功地融合了自己生活中的两个方 面——专业的工作和激情的生活，这使他成为了一 位独一无二的平面设计师，而同时又是一个热情的 年轻人。他对旅行和学习的热情以及他对信息系统 设计和标志设计的热情相互渗透并互相补充，产生 了一种持续的交叉互补，这种交叉互补可以自然而 然地自生下去而不需要有意为之。旅行者的眼光是 犀利、敏锐而又仔细的，能够捕捉到一个领域中的 不同元素、不同图标和不同文字，这在设计帮助人 们自我定位的标志系统时十分有利。 Luigi Farrauto has been able to put together two aspects of his life, the professional and the passionate ones, merging them in a sole and unique specificity, which distinguishes him both as a graphic designer and as a young man. His passion for travel and study and for the design of systems of information and of signs, penetrate and feed each other, generating a continuous cross-reference which perpetuates itself without any apparent effort. The traveler’s gaze i…

L’exemplum del Dinomenide Gelone tra memoria civica e storiografica

2015

La storia della Sicilia greca è scandita, nei suoi momenti chiave, dalla persistente presenza dell’immagine del Dinomenide Gelone. Questo lavoro analizza le valenze paradigmatiche assunte dalla sua figura nella memoria civica siracusana e nella produzione storiografica; inoltre ricostruisce le dinamiche politiche che hanno spinto i principali tiranni siracusani (da Dionisio I a Ierone II) a stabilire un confronto con Gelone. Il suo exemplum è utilizzato per legittimare azioni politiche e impegno antipunico; particolare attenzione è posta alla Biblioteca storica di Diodoro Siculo e al ruolo che in essa assume la figura del Dinomenide; in relazione a questi aspetti l’opera dell’Agirinense sem…

Settore L-ANT/02 - Storia GrecaThe history of Greek Sicily is marked at its key moments by the persistent image of Dinomenid Gelon. This work analyses the paradigmatic value taken on by his figure in the civic memory of the people of Syracuse and in historiographic production. It also reconstructs the political dynamics which pushed the principal tyrants of Syracuse (from Dionysius I to Hiero II) to establish comparisons with Gelon. His exemplum was used to legitimate political actions and commitment against the Carthaginianparticular attention was also given to the Library of History of Diodorus Siculus and the role that the figure of Dinomenid assumes in itregarding these aspects the work of this author seems to have sometimes the signs of a personal interpretation of history: one that cannot always be explained in relation to the use of the two principal sources for Western history Timaeus and Philistos.

Cardiovascular and respiratory variability during orthostatic and mental stress: A comparison of entropy estimators

2017

The aim of this study is to characterize cardiovascular and respiratory signals during orthostatic and mental stress as reflected in indices of entropy and complexity, providing a comparison between the performance of different estimators. To this end, the heart rate variability, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and respiration time series were extracted from the recordings of 61 healthy volunteers undergoing a protocol consisting of supine rest, head-up tilt test and mental arithmetic task. The analysis was performed in the information domain using measures of entropy and conditional entropy, estimated through model-based (linear) and model-free (binning, nearest neighbor)…

Information-theoretic assessment of cardiovascular variability during postural and mental stress

2016

This study was aimed at investigating the individual and combined effects of postural and mental stress on short-term cardiovascular regulation. To this end, we applied measures taken from the emerging framework of information dynamics on the beat-to-beat spontaneous variability of RR interval and systolic arterial pressure (SAP) measured from healthy subjects in the resting supine position and during the separate and simultaneous execution of experimental protocols performing head-up tilt (HUT) and mental arithmetics (MA). The information stored in RR interval variability, a measure inversely related to the complexity of the time series, increased significantly during HUT and HUT+MA compar…

Shaping women's agency through temporality in "The life and activity of the holy and blessed teacher Syncletica"

2020

The present article attempts to discuss the relationship between two female characters, Thecla and Syncletica, against the wider theoretical background of temporality as it was perceived and construed through literary texts. Syncletica is portrayed as a ‘disciple’ of Thecla. However, while the apocryphal Acts of Paul and Thecla appear to be pervaded with an eschatological expectation, the Life of Saint Syncletica shows signs of a different temporality. The detailed description of the whole life of Syncletica, with an emphasis on the course of illness, reveals a temporality more focused on the stages of life. Building on this evidence, I aim to identify a set of key features that…

Traffic management and user perception: an analysis of Variable Message Signs using Fuzzy Logic

2009

Variable message signs have today become an indispensable tool for managing traffic in urban and suburban areas, such as sending real-time information to motorists in transit along roads where panels are positioned. The study draws on drivers’ response to a series of interviews conducted in the city of Brescia. The interviews showed that a large proportion of drivers does not read the messages, and indeed very often does not even remember having seeing the sign. The marginal usefulness of these facilities can probably be attributed to the fact that the panels are constantly used to display messages devoid of immediate interest (eg, greetings, penalties for traffic violations, general inform…

Correlations between Reading Disabilities and Learning Disabilities

2015

The article is devoted to reveal correlations between reading disabilities and learning disabilities. These problems need to be explained and teachers need to have reasonable solutions. Number of school-children with learning disabilities is increasing and teacher is not able to find the best and most precise ways of diagnostics and treatment/intervention. Causes of learning disabilities are different: brain damage or distorted functioning of it; auditory or visual perception and operating problems; language acquisition or processing problems etc. Symptoms are mostly noticed in the main areas – reading, writing and mathematics. Reading disabilities are one of the most obvious and serious pr…
