Integration of thermal building simulation and VR techniques for sustainable building projects
2013
Déjà présent sur HAL mais sans le fichier pdf; The importance of energy efficiency and integration of advances in building design and VR technology have led this research to focus on thermal simulation results visualized in a virtual environment to optimize building design. This paper combines the principle of integration for thermal calculation and scientific visualization in VR. The method is to use CAD models (extensively used in architectural design) to analyze a building's thermal performance and visualize it, as well as simulating it through VR technology. Interaction between users and objects in a virtual world are certainly through techniques of visualization metaphors. The object o…
The Effects of the Use of Serious Game in Eco-Driving Training
2016
International audience; Serious games present a promising approach to training and learning. The player is engaged in a virtual environment for a purpose beyond pure entertainment, all while having fun. In this paper, we investigate the effects of the use of serious game in eco-driving training. An approach has been developed in order to improve players’ practical skills in terms of eco-driving. This approach is based on the development of a driving simulation based on a serious game, integrating a multisensorial guidance system with metaphors including visual messages (information on fuel consumption, ideal speed area, gearbox management, etc.) and sounds (spatialized sounds, voice message…
Dignity, Rights and Virtues in the Department of Values
2018
The chapter aims to show that dignity is not an empty concept but it adds something to other values and this is reflected in Dworkin holistic approach to values. Last Dworkin's project is to transcend the language of rights to a new political perspective in which responsibility and virtues are crucial. But this is problematic for Dworkin's engagement to liberalism.

Bioetica, sacralità della vita e virtù. Osservazioni critiche su un recente libro di M. La Torre
2022
In this paper, some critical remarks on M. La Torre’s book, Bioetica in tempo di pandemia are exposed. These remarks concerns: 1) the justification of paternalism according to La Torre’s liberal account of bioethics. If paternalism is justified then it is open to debate in which sense his proposal can be labelled as “liberal”; 2) what one earns with assuming that in order to solve conflicts of values we should prefer moral specificationism in front of Alexy’s balancing between legal principles. We will show that in arguing for specificationism La Torre tries to avoid the phenomenon of tragic choice, without succeeding; 3) the lack of clarity in depicting the idea of “sacred life”. This idea…
Interpretazione del diritto internazionale e rule of law
2020
The article discusses two main theses. The first one is the presence and forms of the rule of law in the international legal scenario. This task is developed through the analysis of three possible versions: the extension of the domestic rule of law to the obligations coming from international law, the rule of international law, and the international rule of law. The second thesis is that the rule of law plays a role in the interpretation of law. This role depends on legal science, considered the crucial resource of an international law of international lawyers. The final point regards then the relationships between international rule of law and legal science, and, in particular, the answeri…
Meritare le responsabilità. Il complicato confine tra merito, virtù e gloria in Cicerone e in Tacito
2017
Quale posto la relazione tra merito e responsabilità ha avuto nelle concezioni morali dei Romani? Quale lessico ne è in qualche modo spia e rappresentazione? Per provare a rispondere a tali domande intendo partire dal Dialogus de oratoribus di Tacito, che presenterò come un apologo significativo del conflitto tra successo, gloria e virtù, utile anche per misurare la distanza tra le idee romane di merito e responsabilità e quelle nostre; quindi passerò dal racconto al modello, andando a recuperare, dietro i personaggi dell’opera, la riflessione etica compiuta dall’ultimo Cicerone, che trova il suo punto culturalmente più interessante proprio nell’individuazione di criteri che definiscono il …
