Use of code-mixing by young hearing children of Deaf parents
2016
In this study we followed the characteristics and use of code-mixing by eight KODAs – hearing children of Deaf parents – from the age of 12 to 36 months. The children's interaction was video-recorded twice a year during three different play sessions: with their Deaf parent, with the Deaf parent and a hearing adult, and with the hearing adult alone. Additionally, data were collected on the children's overall language development in both sign language and spoken language. Our results showed that the children preferred to produce code-blends – simultaneous production of semantically congruent signs and words – in a way that was in accordance with the morphosyntactic structure of both languages…
Bim and architectural heritage: Towards an operational methodology for the knowledge and the management of cultural heritage
2016
The study aims to answer the growing need for virtuously organize informational apparatuses related to Cultural Heritage. We propose a methodology that integrates multidisciplinary processes of interaction with information aimed at survey, documentation, management, knowledge and enhancement of historic artifacts. It is needed to review and update the procedure of instrumental data acquisition, standardization and structuring of the acquired data in a three-dimensional semantic model as well as the subsequent representability and accessibility of the model and the related database. If the use of Building Information Modeling has in recent years seen a consolidation in the procedures and the…
CONCLUSIONS
2022
Today’s communication has almost completely entered the digital world as the only system of language, be it graphic, spoken or artistic. It is no coincidence that the architectural and cultural heritage, as well as the urban aspects of the city, could not avoid undergoing significant change caused by the influence of the digital transition which allows them to be safeguarded, documented and handed down. Digital, through all its forms, is, today, not only the representation of the asset but also its management through BIM approaches. The boundaries of representation, digitization and documentation open up and become ever wider, embracing greater goals and responding to growing needs.
Bringing Building Data on Construction Site for Virtual Renovation Works
2013
Déjà sur HAL mais sans le fichier pdf; In this study we aimed at evaluating the benefit of managing a digital mock-up for renovation operations in an ancient building. Focusing on thermal efficiency, the renovation proposal dealt with the great windows. We compared three methodologies dedicated to the project planning and management We first address the issue of the renovation of old buildings and come up with a workflow that connects the digital building to its lifecycle; then we focus on an instance of onsite handling of such data, in an augmented reality context, by elaborating the notion of “BIM in situ” as described in the papers of [3] as well as in [4]. Results reveal that handling B…
Pd–M/C (M = Pd, Cu, Pt) Electrocatalysts for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Alkaline Medium: Correlating the Electronic Structure with Activity
2017
The increasing global needs for clean and renewable energy have fostered the design of new and highly efficient materials for fuel cells applications. In this work, Pd-M (M = Pd, Cu, Pt) and Pt nanoparticles were prepared by a green synthesis method. The carbon-supported nanoparticles were evaluated as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline medium. A comprehensive electronic and structural characterization of these materials was achieved using X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Their electrochemical properties were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, while the…
EXAFS and XRD study of Pd–Ag bimetallic catalysts supported on pumice from organometallic precursors
2001
Abstract Silver–palladium bimetallic catalysts were supported on pumice following different procedures, based on mild treatments of organometallic precursors. The experiments for the structural characterization of the synthesized samples, wide angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, were carried out at the beamline GILDA of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The analysis of the data demonstrated that alloying took place with a degree of homogeneity depending on the different preparation routes.
Influence of metallic silver and of platinum-silver bimetallic deposits on the photocatalytic activity of titania (anatase and rutile) in organic and…
1998
Abstract The influence of deposited silver upon the photocatalytic activity of titania in the rutile and anatase allotropic forms has been studied in three different reactions. The common feature found for these three reactions was an electron transfer from illuminated TiO 2 to silver particles. In the first reaction (platinum photodeposition). it has been shown that the initial presence of metallic silver orientates the localization of subsequent Pt photodeposits with, in particular, a 100% selectivity to Pt deposition on top of silver particles or agglomerates previously deposited on anatase. In the second reaction (2-propanol oxidation), Ag deposit was found beneficial for the activity o…
Partial photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of 3-pyridinemethanol by Pt, Au and Pd loaded TiO2 nanotubes on Ti plate
2021
Abstract The photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) oxidation of 3-pyridinemethanol to 3-pyridinemethanal and vitamin B3 was investigated by using Pt, Au and Pd loaded (as single or bimetallic) nanotube structured TiO2 on Ti plate in water under UVA irradiation. Nanotube structured TiO2 on Ti plate samples were prepared as anode by anodic oxidation method in ethylene glycol solution in different times, and then they were calcined at 500 °C to be obtained in crystalline form. The anodes were loaded with noble metals by electrochemical reduction method and characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM, and photocurrent techniques. The TiO2 on the plates was in the anatase phase. The loaded metals were in metallic form…
Influence of Proton Conducting Cations on the Structure and Properties of 2D Anilate-Based Magnets
2017
The syntheses, structures, magnetic, and proton conductivity properties of a family of bimetallic anilate-based compounds with inserted alkylammonium cations are presented. The structures of (Me2NH2)[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3]·2H2O (1), (Et2NH2)[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3] (2), (Et3NH)[MnIICrIII(Cl2An)3] (3), and [(Et)(i-Pr)2NH]-[MnIICrIII(Br2An)3]·(CHCl3)0.5·(H2O) (4) contain a 2D anionic network formed by Mn(II) and Cr(III) ions linked through anilate ligands. In 1, 2, and 3, the hexagonal holes of this network are occupied by Me2NH2+, Et2NH2+, or Et3NH+ cations. Interestingly, the small increase of size of the templating cation in 4 ([(Et)(i-Pr)2NH]+ in the place of Me2NH2+, Et2NH2+ or Et3NH+), gives ris…
[Mnii2(bpym)(H2O)8]4+ and [Miv(CN)8]4– (M = Mo and W) as building blocks in designing bpym- and cyanide-bridged bimetallic three-dimensional networks…
2002
One-pot reaction between the dinuclear [MnII2(bpym)(H2O)8]4+ complex and the mononuclear [MIV(CN)8]4− unit (M = Mo and W; bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine) in aqueous solution yields the novel heterobimetallic complexes of formula {(μ-bpym)[Mn(H2O)]2-(μ-NC)6M(CN)2} with M = Mo (1) and W (2). 1 and 2 are isostructural three-dimensional compounds where the manganese atoms are bridged by bisbidentate bpym and hexakismonodentate octacyanometalate units. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility data of 1 and 2 show the occurrence of a significant antiferromagnetic coupling between the high spin manganese(II) ions through bridging bpym (Jca. −1.1 cm−1, the exchange Hamiltonian being defined as H = −J…
