La fobología, ¿ciencia o forma de entretenimiento?

2011

In last years, a wide range of manifestations linked to fear have been certainly become in a serious concern and challenge for citizenry worldwide. Ranging from the war on terror, outbreak of a new virus, natural or man-made disasters to the risk of a nuclear accidents we are now witness (in the inception of a new millennium) of a proliferation of fears and panic. As a result of the high-related degree of uncertainty that characterizes our postmodern life of consumption, our ontological state of security seems to be overloaded. As the previous argument given, the present paper provides readers with a new discipline to research these types of issues in a near future, the phobology. To what a…

A raíz de un divisor argénteo de probable atribución a Malaka aparecido junto a un tartemorion gaditano en Cástulo

2015

Este artículo documenta el hallazgo fortuito de un divisor de plata posiblemente atribuible a Malaka que apareció junto a un tartemo rion de Gadir en las inmediaciones de la ciudad ibero-romana de Cástulo, en el Cortijo de Ca zlona (Linares, Jaén). El hallazgo de estas dos piezas juntas, nos indica que ambas fueron cont emporáneas tanto en su circulación como, muy quizás, en su acuñación. Asimismo, el artículo recoge todos los ejemplares de divisores de plata y asignados a Malaka conocidos hasta el momen to. Finalmente, se acomete una primera aproximación de la seriación y de los cuños utiliza dos para dichas monedas. This paper documents the fortuitous discovery of a silver fraction, possi…

Le chiese della ricostruzione come fulcro identitario del quartiere: caratteri urbanistici e architettonici di due chiese post-conciliari della Sicil…

2014

The period that followed the Second World War marked a turning point for the building of our country. The compelling need, the desire to rebuild what had been destroyed and the desire to build structures using the techniques of contemporary manufacturing meant that the fifties and sixties were significant, also with regard to housing production, for the history of our country, from the point of view of both architectural and technical - constructive. The use of reinforced concrete, although already quite widespread before the war, he found the greatest statement both in the building residential use that in the sperimentation of large structures. The church buildings that were built in those…

The use of constructed wetlands for the treatment and reuse of urban wastewater for the irrigation of two warm-season turfgrass species under Mediter…

2017

Constructed wetlands (CWs) represent low-cost technology for the treatment and reuse of wastewater in urban areas. This study aimed to evaluate the pollutant removal efficiency of a CW system and to assess the effects of irrigation using treated urban wastewater on soil and on two warm-season turf species. The research was carried out in Sicily (Italy) on a pilot-scale horizontal subsurface flow system which was fed with treated urban wastewater following secondary treatment from an activated-sludge wastewater treatment plant. The pilot system was located in an open urban park and comprised two separate parallel planted units. Experimental fields of Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. and Paspalum …

A fast and efficient picking algorithm for earthquake early warning application based on the variance piecewise constant models

2020

An earthquake warning system, or earthquake early warning system, is a system of accelerometers, seismometers, communication, computers, and alarms that is devised for notifying adjoining regions of a substantial earthquake while it is in progress. This is not the same as earthquake prediction, which is currently incapable of producing decisive event warnings. The implementation of efficient and computationally simple picking algorithm is necessary for this purpose, as well as automatic picking of seismic phases for seismic surveillance and routine earthquake location for fast hypocenter determination. In this paper a method for picking based on the detection of signals changes in variance …

Self-assessment application and learning in organizations: A special reference to the ontological dimension

2003

Quality management self-assessment is a powerful tool for management continuous improvement, and it may foster the process of learning in the organization. In this paper, we identify some links between self-assessment and learning. From the analysis of the learning processes at the three ontological levels--individual, group and organizational--and taking the contributions of Crossan et al. (1999) and Kim (1993) as a reference point, we propose a model of organizational learning. This model explicitly recognizes the importance of group level as a link between individual and organizational levels, and it can be employed in order to analyse the effect of self-assessment application at the dif…

Episodios térmicos extremos analizados con productos MODIS durante el invierno boreal (2000-2016)

2016

<p>The beginning of the XXI century is characterized by the intensification of the existing global warming situation and for a series of drastic global meteorological events. Particularly, during the winter season a series of extreme temperature episodes affecting large areas of the northern hemisphere have been produced. In this paper, these episodes are studied by analyzing the thermal anomalies spatial distribution and temporal evolution in the period 2001-2016 from Land Surface Temperature (LST) products obtained from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor. The study regions considered in this investigation are eight of the northern hemisphere. The result…

Recognizing Early warning Signs in Transportation Services

2018

The transport services can vary in complexity, and can be carried out in short or long supply chains. Market observations indicate that logistics services including transport service become increasingly sophisticated, by far exceeding their traditional perception. They begin to resemble projects characterized by singularity, uniqueness, temporariness, limited budget, and, occasionally, innovativeness. Therefore, they are often treated as a specific type of projects, called logistics projects. The aim of the paper is to present the essence and characteristics of transportation services as a specific logistics project. Author characterizes the transportation service, with particular focus on …
