Processing of 3D Models for Networking of CH in Geomatics
2020
In recent times the possibility of reconstruction of complex 3D Cultural Heritage (CH) environments has opened new scenarios for touristic and scientific aims. The different needs for networking or conservation purposes of CH lead to study proper structuring of 3D models. In light of this, a scientific approach has been developed in order to test the networking capabilities, comparing different loading configurations of 3D environments with multiple combinations of 3D models inside them, considering different solutions. This experimentation has been based on WebGL-HTML5 technologies and allowed to discover the true balance between performances of proposed system, the quality of visualizatio…
Towards Digital Twinning on the Web: Heterogeneous 3D Data Fusion Based on Open-Source Structure
2023
Recent advances in Computer Science and the spread of internet connection have allowed specialists to virtualize complex environments on the web and offer further information with realistic exploration experiences. At the same time, the fruition of complex geospatial datasets (point clouds, Building Information Modelling (BIM) models, 2D and 3D models) on the web is still a challenge, because usually it involves the usage of different proprietary software solutions, and the input data need further simplification for computational effort reduction. Moreover, integrating geospatial datasets acquired in different ways with various sensors remains a challenge. An interesting question, in that r…
Evaluation of Support in Singing
2005
Summary This study searched for perceptual, acoustic, and physiological correlates of support in singing. Seven trained professional singers (four women and three men) sang repetitions of the syllable [pa:] at varying pitch and sound levels (1) habitually (with support) and (2) simulating singing without support. Estimate of subglottic pressure was obtained from oral pressure during [p]. Vocal fold vibration was registered with dual-channel electroglottography. Acoustic analyses were made on the recorded samples. All samples were also evaluated by the singers and other listeners, who were trained singers, singing students, and voice specialists without singing education (a total of 63 liste…
Lubāna ledus loba veidotās reljefa formas Atzeles pacēlumā
2022
Grīnbauma, I. 2022. Lubāna ledus loba veidotās reljefa formas Atzeles pacēlumā. Maģistra darbs. Rīga, Latvijas Universitāte, Ģeogrāfijas un Zemes zinātņu fakultāte. Maģistra darbā tika analizētas glaciālās reljefa formas un to izkārtojums Austrumlatvijā, Atzeles pacēlumā, pielietojot 1 m izšķirtspējas digitālo reljefa modeli, kas iegūts no lāzerskenēšanas datiem. Pētījuma teritorija atrodas Fenoskandijas ledus vairoga dienvidaustrumu sektorā, kur uzvirzījās Lubāna ledus lobs. Pētījuma teritorijas glaciālā ģeomorfoloģija nodrošina lielisku iespēju pētīt zemledāja apstākļus un ledus loba plūsmu un iespējamos uzplūdus. Lubāna ledus loba atstātās “pēdas” robežojas no lielizmēra glaciālajiem lin…
The Lung in Inflammatory Bowel Disease†
1993
Respiratory involvement in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been reported mainly since 1976. This form of involvement should clearly be separated from interstitial lung disease due to sulfasalazine or mesalamine, although the distinction may be difficult in some cases. We report the data of an ongoing Registry containing 33 cases (23 cases receiving no drug therapy) with ulcerative colitis or, less often, Crohn's disease, who developed varied bronchopulmonary problems. In several cases, the exact diagnosis and the relation of the bronchopulmonary disease to IBD had not been established for many years, thus delaying effective treatment with steroids. In most cases (28/33), …
Congenital secretory diarrhoea caused by activating germline mutations in GUCY2C
2016
Objective Congenital sodium diarrhoea (CSD) refers to a form of secretory diarrhoea with intrauterine onset and high faecal losses of sodium without congenital malformations. The molecular basis for CSD remains unknown. We clinically characterised a cohort of infants with CSD and set out to identify disease-causing mutations by genome-wide genetic testing. Design We performed whole-exome sequencing and chromosomal microarray analyses in 4 unrelated patients, followed by confirmatory Sanger sequencing of the likely disease-causing mutations in patients and in their family members, followed by functional studies. Results We identified novel de novo missense mutations in GUCY2C, the gene encod…
Production of enniatins A, A1, B, B1, B4, J1 by Fusarium tricinctum in solid corn culture: structural analysis and effects on mitochondrial respirati…
2013
Enniatins (ENs) are secondary fungal metabolites with hexadepsipeptidic chemical structure and they possess a number of potent biological activities that can contaminate several kind of food and foodstuffs increasing the exposure risk for consumers. ENs are produced by several Fusariun strains including Fusarium subglutinans, Fusarium proliferatum and Fusarium tricinctum. Production of a mixture of ENs was performed by culturing F. tricinctum ITEM 9496 on white corn as substrate. The solid culture components were dried and subsequently extracted with water/methanol (50/50 v/v, 0.5% NaCl), homogenised, filtered, extracted by ethyl acetate and analysed by liquid chromatography with diode arra…
Isolation, purification and antibacterial effects of fusaproliferin produced by Fusariumsubglutinans in submerged culture.
2009
To evaluate the fusaproliferin (FUS) production, Fusariumsubglutinans ITEM 2404 was grown in a liquid medium of potato being this mycotoxin purified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a C18 semipreparative column using a mobile phase of acetonitrile/H(2)O using gradient conditions. The purity of the fusaproliferin was verified by analytical HPLC, ultraviolet absorbance measurements, LC/MS-MS, (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The isolated FUS was shown to be free of impurities and can be used as a standard for routine analysis. The pure fusaproliferin was utilized to study the biological activity on Escherichiacoli and Staphylococcusaureus. This study demostred that FUS not showed s…
The Bossons glacier protects Europe's summit from erosion
2013
13 pages; International audience; The contrasting efficiency of erosion beneath cold glacier ice, beneath temperate glacier ice, and on ice-free mountain slopes is one of the key parameters in the development of relief during glacial periods. Detrital geochronology has been applied to the subglacial streams of the north face of the Mont-Blanc massif in order to estimate the efficiency of erosional processes there. Lithologically this area is composed of granite intruded at ~303 Ma within an older polymetamorphic complex. We use macroscopic features (on ~10,000 clasts) and U-Pb dating of zircon (~500 grains) to establish the provenance of the sediment transported by the glacier and its subgl…
HTML5 monialustaisessa pelikehityksessä : kaksiulotteiset minipelit Phaser-pelimoottorilla
2015
Mobiililaitteiden yleistyessä videopelien pelaamiseen on tarve pelien helpommalle kehitykselle ja levitykselle kasvanut. HTML5 on avoin web-standardi, joka mahdollistaa monialustaisen multimediasisällön näyttämisen suoraan Internet-selaimissa. HTML5:n avulla voikin olla mahdollista luoda pelejä, jotka eivät kärsi natiiviohjelmien tavoin yhteensopivuus- tai asennusongelmista. On kuitenkin oletettavaa, ettei HTML5 ja siihen sidoksissa olevat tekniikat tai sitä tukevat Internet-selaimet ole vielä täysin valmiita kaikkiin web-teknologian asettamiin haasteisiin, mutta sitä voitaneen kaikesta huolimatta jo käyttää täysin pelattavien ajanvietepelien toteuttamiseen. Tämä tutkielma tutkii monialusta…
