Estudios estratégicos para la lucha contra la fascioliasis humana a nivel mundial = Strategic studies for the fight against de human fascioliasis wor…
2013
Fascioliasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Emergence of human fascioliasis prompted a worldwide control initiative including a pilot study in several countries. Given the necessity to characterize the fasciolid populations involved, the overall aim of the present research is, first, the phenotypic characterization of faciolid adults and eggs implicated in human endemic areas, where this initiative has been implemented, through a computer image analysis system (CIAS) applied on the basis of standardized measurements. Second, new immunological techniques and their potential use as immunological diagnostic tests in those areas are evaluated. The …
Microscratch testing method for systematic evaluation of the adhesion of atomic layer deposited thin films on silicon
2016
The scratch test method is widely used for adhesion evaluation of thin films and coatings. Usual critical load criteria designed for scratch testing of coatings were not applicable to thin atomic layer deposition (ALD) films on silicon wafers. Thus, the bases for critical load evaluation were established and the critical loads suitable for ALD coating adhesion evaluation on silicon wafers were determined in this paper as LCSi1, LCSi2, LCALD1, and LCALD2, representing the failure points of the silicon substrate and the coating delamination points of the ALD coating. The adhesion performance of the ALD Al2O3, TiO2, TiN, and TaCN+Ru coatings with a thickness range between 20 and 600 nm and dep…

Active lighting applied to three-dimensional reconstruction of specular metallic surfaces by polarization imaging
2006
International audience; In the field of industrial vision, the three-dimensional inspection of highly reflective metallic objects is still a delicate task. We deal with a new automated three-dimensional inspection system based on polarization analysis. We first present an extension of the shape-from-polarization method for dielectric surfaces to metallic surfaces. Then, we describe what we believe to be a new way of solving the ambiguity concerning the normal orientation with an active lighting system. Finally, applications to shape-defect detection are discussed, and the efficiency of the system to discriminate defects on specular metallic objects made by stamping and polishing is presente…
Comparative Investigation on the Soil Burial Degradation Behaviour of Polymer Films for Agriculture before and after Photo-Oxidation
2020
Polymer films based on biodegradable polymers, polyethylene (PE) and modified PE with oxo-degradable additive were prepared by film blowing. Carbon black (1%) was added to all the films. Commercial biodegradable Ecovio®

Logical Intelligence Enhancement Test: a measure for the evaluation of logical skills in primary school
2019
Il presente lavoro si inserisce in uno studio pilota condotto nell’anno scolastico 2018-2019per valutare l’efficacia del Logical Intelligence Enhancement Programme (LIEP, Calvani, Peru,& Zanaboni, 2019), un programma composto da tavole di logica verbale e numerica volte asviluppare il ragionamento logico e le capacità metacognitive di studenti di quinta primaria.All’interno di questo studio è stato sviluppato il Logical Intelligence Enhancement test perstimare gli effetti del training sulle abilità logico-verbali. Il contributo presenta la costru-zione del test, le sue caratteristiche psicometriche e la validazione. A tal fine, lo strumentoè stato somministrato a un campione di 173 stud…
Lääkintälaitteiden kyberturvallisuuden standardit ja testaaminen
2017
Tietotekniikkaa sisältävät lääkintälaitteet pitävät meidät hengissä, jos kehomme pettää. Esimerkiksi ostoskeskuksissa olevat älykkäät defibrillaattorit antavat maallikoillekin mahdollisuuden antaa tehokasta ensiapua sydänkohtaukseen. Tietotekniikan käyttäminen lääkintälaitteissa tuo mahdollisuuksien lisäksi uhkia. Tässä tutkielmassa perehdytään siihen, miten standardit ja testaaminen edistävät kyberturvallisuutta, uhkien torjumista. Ensin tehdään katsaus kirjallisuuteen ja standardeihin ja sitten kytketään tieto käytäntöön testaamalla potilasmonitoria kirjallisuuden pohjalta. Tulos oli, että tutkittava potilasmonitori oli hyvin avoin fyysisen käyttöliittymän kautta. Esimerkiksi potilastiedo…
An Innovative Coupling Solution for Power Line Communication in MV Electrical Networks
2019
One of the main problems in the diffusion of power line communication (PLC) in medium voltage (MV) networks is the need of a dedicated PLC coupler to be installed all over the network. To avoid this problem, the authors have studied, prototyped and patented an innovative PLC coupling solution which uses electrical elements embedded in most of the switchgears already installed in MV networks, i.e. the capacitive dividers of the voltage detecting systems (VDS). The new solution prototype is described in this paper, highlighting the advantages in terms of a significant reduction of both direct costs of equipment and infrastructures and indirect costs of installation and service interruption. T…
Simulation of a Power Line Communication System in Medium and Low Voltage Distribution Networks
2011
The aim of the paper is to study the influence of the power transformer on signal transmission in the case of a power line communication (PLC) system in a overhead Medium Voltage (MV) power network. A model of the PLC system was carried out by means of the Simulink® software. A distributed parameter MV overhead line, two power transformers, the signal coupling networks and the receiving and transmitting line coupling interface of a ST7540 FSK powerline transceiver were included in the model. The performances of the complete PLC communication system are evaluated for different line lengths by means of the attenuation computed as ratio between the received and transmitted voltage signals.
