Photocatalytic nano-composite architectural lime mortar for degradation of urban pollutants under solar and visible (interior) light
2017
Abstract Recent advances in nano-technology and nano-additives can give enhanced properties to natural hydraulic lime (NHL), creating a multifunctional material. We have prepared a novel nanocomposite, made of a commercial mortar with 1 wt% and 5 wt% added titania nanoparticles (NPs). These TiO 2 NPs are themselves doped with 1 mol% silver, to give the material enhanced photocatalytic and antimicrobial properties. The Ag-doped TiO 2 NPs were made from a simple, costs effective, aqueous green nanosynthesis process, and the end material only contains 0.01–0.05% Ag. As this mortar is intended to both combat atmospheric pollution, and create more durable/lower maintenance building facades (plas…

Effet colloide-protecteur d'extraits de parois de levures sur la stabilité tartrique d'une solution hydro-alcoolique modèle
1993
<p style="text-align: justify;">L'effet colloïde-protecteur d'extraits mannoprotéiques de parois de levures vis-à-vis de la précipitation tartrique a été étudié en solution hydroalcoolique, en utilisant un IST mètre (Indice de Stabilité Tartrique).</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Nous avons montré que les deux extraits levuriens inhibaient la cristallisation du bitartrate de potassium au même titre que l'acide métatartrique et la carboxyméthylcellulose, mais à un niveau plus faible. Le niveau de stabilité retenu (ISTC-75) est assuré avec des concentrations par litre de 7,5 mg d'acide métatartrique et de 18 mg de carboxyméthylcellulose. Des concentrations en extraits man…

Towards a more dynamic stakeholder model : Acknowledgning multiple issue arenas
2010
Purpose – The paper suggest that corporate communications is becoming less predictable as interaction with stakeholders is moving from organizational control toward ‘issue arenas’, places of interaction where an issue is discussed by stakeholders and organizations both online and within the traditional media. The role of corporate communications and public relations is broadening beyond the traditional relationship management to issue arena monitoring. Design/methodology/approach – Theoretical approach with six axioms suggested. Findings – Several central theories of corporate communications are combined with issues management and stakeholder theory to argue for a multiplicity of new ‘issue…
Factors behind Leisure-Time Physical Activity Behavior Based on Finnish Twin Studies: The Role of Genetic and Environmental Influences and the Role o…
2014
Different approaches are being taken to clarify the role of various factors in the development of physical activity behaviors. Genetic studies are a new area of physical activity research and also the motives for physical activity have been widely studied. The purpose of this paper is to review the findings emerging from the longitudinal genetic studies on leisure-time physical activity and to evaluate the associations between motivational factors and leisure-time physical activity. The focus is to review recent findings of longitudinal Finnish twin studies. The results of the latest longitudinal Finnish twin studies point to the existence of age-specific genetic and environmental influence…
Videoconferencing analytic psychodrama in treating young adults’ psychological suffering: preliminary results
2023
The study aims to explore the effects that videoconferencing Analytic Psychodrama (AP) has on the psychological wellbeing and emotional competence of young adults who are suffering from mental health problems. Twenty-two undergraduate students, asking for help at the Psychological Counselling Service of the University of Bologna for anxiety-depressive problems, took part in the three online groups that met weekly from October 2020 to July 2021. The Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation Outcome Measure, the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire Short Form, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, the Interpersonal Reactivity Index, and the Group Climate Questionnaire were used as test–retest qu…
Model wielowymiarowej profilaktyki pozytywnej jako przykład narzędzia projektowania wsparcia rozwoju duchowości dzieci i młodzieży
2022
PROBLEM I METODY BADAWCZE: Problem badawczy dotyczy odpowiedzi na pytanie: czy i w jaki sposób model wielowymiarowej profilaktyki pozytywnej może służyć wsparciu rozwoju duchowego dzieci i młodzieży oraz jakie praktyczne implikacje wynikają z założeń teoretyczno-empirycznych modelu. W artykule zastosowano metodę analityczno-syntetyczną literatury przedmiotu. PROCES WYWODU: Na podstawie opracowań literatury przedmiotu dokonano analizy noetyczno -duchowego wymiaru egzystencji oraz ukazano jego znaczenie dla konstruowania skutecznej działalności profilaktycznej. Przedstawiono założenia teoretyczne oraz empiryczne modelu wielowymiarowej profilaktyki pozytywnej. WYNIKI ANALIZY NAUKOWEJ: Z przepr…
Enterprise Architecture : A Perspective on How Far We Have Come, and Directions for the Future
2019
Enterprise Architecture (EA) appears to retain the attention of both practitioners and researchers, as the technological complexity of organizations grows. Several researchers have noted that research on EA has been diversifying over time, leading to inconsistent use of terminologies. Further, the benefit claims and other results, rather frequently, are not based on empirical evidence. These shortfalls in research on EA impede EA from maturing as a discipline and from demonstrating its benefit claims. Although there are reasons to believe that the research on EA has progressed, the extent of the progress and the directions for future research are not evident. This study draws on a meta-revi…
Effect of pulse amplitude on depression and potentiation of ZrO2(Y)-based memristive synaptic device
2022
The effect of the amplitude of depressing and potentiating pulses on the synaptic plasticity (potentiation and depression) of a memristive device based on the Ta/ZrO2(Y)/Pt stack has been experimentally studied. It is shown that the amplitude of depressing and potentiating pulses affects the synaptic plasticity, namely, the value of current passing through the memristive device. The presented results demonstrate the prospects of using the ZrO2(Y)-based memristive devices as stable and low-power elements of neuromorphic systems.
