Optical Forging of Graphene into Three-Dimensional Shapes

2017

Atomically thin materials, such as graphene, are the ultimate building blocks for nanoscale devices. But although their synthesis and handling today are routine, all efforts thus far have been restricted to flat natural geometries, since the means to control their three-dimensional (3D) morphology has remained elusive. Here we show that, just as a blacksmith uses a hammer to forge a metal sheet into 3D shapes, a pulsed laser beam can forge a graphene sheet into controlled 3D shapes in the nanoscale. The forging mechanism is based on laser-induced local expansion of graphene, as confirmed by computer simulations using thin sheet elasticity theory. peerReviewed

Communication skills in medicine: where do we come from and where are we going?

2015

The physician-patient relationship has changed throughout history, as the role of physician has been transformed. Modern physicians need to be educated on how to use highly specialized knowledge when approaching the patient as a unique and whole person living in a given psychological, social, and material context. This relationship evolved from a paternalistic model to a cooperative-deliberative one, representing a meeting between two “experts:” the physician as the medical expert and the patient as the expert on himself. According to this model, communication between patients and physicians must be based on common understanding in a caring and dynamic relationship that also involves the pa…

8000 years of coastal changes on a western Mediterranean island: A multiproxy approach from the Posada plain of Sardinia

2018

Abstract A multi-proxy palaeoenvironmental investigation was conducted to reconstruct the Holocene history of coastal landscape change in the lower Posada coastal plain of eastern Sardinia. In the Mediterranean region, coastal modifications during the Holocene have been driven by a complex interplay between climate, geomorphological processes and human activity. In this paper, millennial-scale human-sea level-environment interactions are investigated near Posada, one of the largest coastal plains in eastern Sardinia. Biostratigraphic and palynological approaches were used to interpret the chrono-stratigraphy exhibited by a series of new cores taken from the coastal plain. This new study elu…

A map of autumn precipitation for the third millennium BP in the Eastern Iberian Peninsula from charcoal carbon isotopes

2009

Abstract Carbon isotope composition (δ13C) in tree-rings has become routinely used in palaeoclimatic research for the assessment of changes in plant water availability in seasonally dry climates. However, the distribution of long tree-ring records around the world is very limited. Alternatively, the original climate signal of wood δ13C is well preserved in fossil charcoal and, accordingly, charcoal δ13C can be used to quantify past changes in water availability (e.g. precipitation). We report a case study on spatial palaeoclimate reconstruction which aims to characterize the transition between Bronze and Iron Ages, the so-called Iron Age Cold Epoch (ca. 900–300 BCE), using charcoals of Quer…

DETERMINATION OF THE OPTIMAL MOMENT OF HARVESTING FOR CABERNET SAUVIGNON AND MERLOT GRAPES IN DRĂGĂŞANI VINEYARD

2011

This paper presents an analysis of the main characteristics of black grapes during ripening and determining the optimum moment to harvest the grapes in the vineyard Drăgăşani. Monitoring process of maturation of the grapes has been done on the varieties of grapes for red wines Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from Drăgăşani vineyard.

Miti mediterranei: un viaggio millenario

2020

Ha osservato Sebastiano Tusa: «Al di là delle immense e svariate risorse materiali che il mare ha offerto ed offre all’uomo, ve ne sono altre che attengono alla sfera sovrastrutturale che hanno nei millenni rifornito ed animato l’immensa enciclopedia dei miti, delle leggende e dei culti ad esso ispirati o, comunque, connessi». Distesa senza confini e abisso insondabile, il mare, con le sue repentine mutazioni di stato, le sue furiose tempeste e le sue mortifere bonacce, si è sempre imposto a chi lo solcava per raggiungere altri luoghi o per ricavarne da vivere come spazio del pericolo e del mistero, generando e sostenendo un ampio e polimorfo immaginario e divenendo attore e scenario al con…

Geosemiotic study of mobility as a communicated item and the use of English in emplaced signs

2013

Globalisoituva maailma nivoutuu monimutkaisella tavalla useiksi sosiaalisiksi tiloiksi ja tässä prosessissa liikkuvuuden kasvulla ja levittäytymisellä on merkittävä osa. Historiallisesti periferiset alueet liittyvät osaksi globaalia maailmaa lentokenttien, rautateiden ja tieverkkojen tuodessa mukanaan ihmisvirtoja, jotka aikaansaavat kulttuurisia ja kielellisiä muutoksia. Keskellä näitä muutoksia ovat sekä liikkuvuutta varten rakennetut ympäristöt, eli mobiilit tilat, että nykyajan globaali kieli, englanti. Tätä taustaa vasten asettuvan tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kartoittaa mobiileja tiloja kommunikatiivisina ympäristöinä tutkimalla näihin tiloihin sijoitettuja tekstejä sekä niiden välity…

Opportunities and Limitations of Haptic Technologies for Non-visual Access to 2D and 3D Graphics

2014

Existing and emerging haptic technologies offer methods for non-visually rendering and interacting with 2D and 3D graphical information. These technologies include force feedback devices, touch surfaces with vibrotactile feedback, wearable vibrotactiles, and touch surfaces with electrostatic feedback. In this paper we will focus on approaches to non-visual access to 3D shapes. The interactive models focus on two approaches: simulation of 3D shape and perspective on a 2D touch surface; and interactive exploration of 3D shapes using physical motion in a virtual 3D space with either a force feedback controller or wearable haptics. The technologies will be reviewed along with suitability for th…
