Simulations on the mechanism of CNT bundle growth upon smooth and nanostructured Ni as well as θ-Al2O3 catalysts
2011
Abstract In the current study, we have performed ab initio DFT calculations on the gradually growing 2D periodic models of capped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SW CNTs) upon their perpendicular junctions with the Ni(111) substrate, in order to understand the peculiarities of the initial stage of their growth on either smooth or nanostructured catalytic particles. Appearance of the adsorbed carbon atoms upon the substrate follows from the dissociation of CVD hydrocarbon molecules, e.g., CH4: (CH4)ads → (CH)ads+3Hads and (CH)ads → Cads+Hads. (Since the effective growth of CNTs upon Ni nanoparticles occur inside the nanopores of amorphous alumina, we have also simulated analogous surface react…
ELEMENTO POLIFUNZIONALE DI ARREDO
2009
Il design brevettato rientra nella categoria di arredi per strutture educative destinate a bambini di età compresa tra 1 e 3 anni. L'arredo consta di due elementi indipendenti e componibili, realizzati in cartone riciclato, che possono assumere alternativamente la configurazione di poltrona e scrittoio con seduta.
The Process of CEO Dismissal: An Exploratory study
2018
The decision to change the CEO is one of the most important decisions of the Board of Directors in a company. This study increases understanding of the process that leads to a Board’s decision to dismiss the CEO under conditions of poor performance, and of the meaning of attributions in CEO dismissal. The role of the Chair of the Board in this process is also explored. An exploratory, empirical study concerning nine CEO dismissal processes is conducted based on open-ended interviews with seven Chairpersons of the Board. The findings shed light on the issues that impact the relationship between poor company performance and CEO dismissal. In particular, the results increase understanding of t…
‘Haz lo que puedas’. Un estudio de caso sobre diversidad funcional y Educación Física
2019
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave disponibles en español y en inglés Las experiencias de las personas con diversidad funcional en Educación Física (EF) suelen ser poco satisfactorias. Por ello, se pretende estudiar las experiencias de Félix, un hombre con miopatía congénita y usuario de silla de ruedas. Félix fue escogido para el estudio a propósito, debido a su historial educativo vinculado a las ciencias del deporte y la enseñanza de la EF. Se llevaron a cabo cuatro entrevistas en profundidad. En estas, se repasaron las etapas de Primaria y Secundaria, la Licenciatura en Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte y el posterior paso de Félix por el …
Video display terminal use and dry eye: preventive measures and future perspectives
2022
Background: Dry eye disease (DED) is a common cause of ocular pain and discomfort. Dry eye disease (DED) stems from a loss-of-tear film homeostasis and is frequently seen in video display terminal (VDT) users. Video display terminal (VDT) use reduces blink rates and increases incomplete blinks, leading to tear film instability and ocular inflammation, promoting DED. Purpose: To assess and evaluate the methods for preventing VDT-associated DED and ocular discomfort. Methods: Studies were found using PubMed and Embase with the search terms: (digital visual terminal* OR computer use OR screen use OR smartphone OR display OR visual display terminal* OR computer vision syndrome OR tablet OR phon…
At the heart of the Board: CEO and Chair. Processes, practices and relationships
2019
This doctoral dissertation explores leadership in the dyadic relationship of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chair of the Board, and in the process leading to CEO dismissal. The study contributes to the literature on relational leadership and the human side of corporate governance and Board work by increasing understanding of the relational practices and processes of the CEO and Chair. A theoretical model is developed of the construction of the CEO-Chair relationship. Additionally, the study makes a methodological contribution by examining researcher-practitioner collaboration during the writing of this study. A qualitative research approach was adopted in the study, with open-end…

Match analysis of wheelchair padel players of different functional level
2018
The aim of this study was to quantify the kinematic demands of wheelchair padel and to examine the activity profiles in professional players according to their functional level. Twenty-two elite players classified in functional level groups (from 1 to 4) were video-analysed with a two-dimensional DLT corrected video system across seven matches of a professional tournament. The results showed players covered 729.6 ± 369.9 meters and 238.45 ± 129.45 turns per match during 1128.9 ± 583.04 second of effective playing time at a mean speed of 0.53 ± 0.49 m/s per rally. The WCP players’ functional classification had heavy influence on their activity profiles during matches, with a large associatio…
