An optimization-based approach for solving a time-harmonic multiphysical wave problem with higher-order schemes
2013
This study considers developing numerical solution techniques for the computer simulations of time-harmonic fluid-structure interaction between acoustic and elastic waves. The focus is on the efficiency of an iterative solution method based on a controllability approach and spectral elements. We concentrate on the model, in which the acoustic waves in the fluid domain are modeled by using the velocity potential and the elastic waves in the structure domain are modeled by using displacement.Traditionally, the complex-valued time-harmonic equations are used for solving the time-harmonic problems. Instead of that, we focus on finding periodic solutions without solving the time-harmonic problem…
Manipulation and control in couple relationships. A study of young women.
2016
The term gaslighting refers to a typology of psychological abuse that is expressed through acts of manipulation, which tend to control a partner’s mental and affective state. The aim of the present study was to assess the presence of gaslighting behaviour as sustained by a group of young women in their relational experiences as a couple. Moreover, the associations between frequency of gaslighting behaviour and specific maladaptive personality traits, were evaluated. One hundred women, aged from 19 to 30 years (M=22,5; ds=3,14) participated in this research study. Manipulation and/or control behaviour were evaluated by administrating 25 descriptions of three typologies of gaslighter (glamour…

There are numerous studies that in the most recent period investigate the transformation of the family, an institution present in all human societies. Subject analyzed by different disciplines and with multiple cuts, it has represented a cornerstone of anthropological reflection, since its emergence at the end of the nineteenth century, as well as sociology and psychology
Nonni caregiver e famiglie headed by grandparents
2020
The volume begins with a reflection on the multiple and changing forms that contemporary families have assumed. The new trends in the social sciences emphasize, in fact, an increasingly accentuated gap between the nuclear family, a union between "the social and the legal" and a multitude of new family models, a synthesis of choices and assumptions of responsibility in the perspective of care and of the well-being of the other. There are numerous studies that in the most recent period investigate the transformation of the family, an institution present in all human societies. Subject analyzed by different disciplines and with multiple cuts, it has represented a cornerstone of anthropological…
Prolonging in utero-like oxygenation after birth diminishes oxidative stress in the lung and brain of mice pups☆
2013
Background Fetal-to-neonatal transition is associated with oxidative stress. In preterm infants, immaturity of the antioxidant system favours supplemental oxygen-derived morbidity and mortality. Objectives To assess if prolonging in utero-like oxygenation during the fetal-to-neonatal transition limits oxidative stress in the lung and brain, improving postnatal adaptation of mice pups. Material and methods Inspiratory oxygen fraction (FiO2) in pregnant mice was reduced from 21% (room air) to 14% (hypoxia) 8–12 h prior to delivery and reset to 21% 6–8 h after birth. The control group was kept at 21% during the procedure. Reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione and its precursors [γ-glut…
Guided Wave Techniques for Damage Detection in Composite Aerospace Structures
2018
Composite materials make up an increasing portion of today’s aerospace structures (see, e.g. Boeing 787 and Airbus 380). These aircrafts’ fuselage, for example, is composed of a laminated composite skin connected to composite stringers and C-frames. Of primary importance is the detection of damage in these built-up structures, whether caused by the manufacturing process or in service (e.g. impacts). A related issue is the characterization of the composite (visco)elastic mechanical properties, that can also be related to the quantification of potential damage. Guided elastic waves propagating in the ~100s kHz regime lend themselves to provide the necessary sensitivity to these two conditions…
Adopción en casos especiales y unidad del status filiationis en el derecho italiano: ¿cómo repercute en el plano sucesorio?
2022
In the Italian legal system, there has recently been recognition by the Constitutional Court in adoptions in particular cases of the existence of civil relations between the adoptee and the relatives of the adopter, thus equalizing the margins of protection of minors, regardless of the situations of fact or law from which the new status of the child originated. This jurisprudential work is full of considerable systematic reflections and is intended to be applied not only to the hypothesis of adoption by same-sex couples, but also to all those cases in which a state of semi-permanent abandonment or cyclical abandonment occurs. Notwithstanding the negative value directed at the forms of surro…
« La Nature du sexe : Une mise en question des idéologies »: in Constructions sexuelles,
1995
International audience; L'article questionne les paradigmes constitutifs des discours sur les différences sexuelles et de construction du sexe et du genre. La sociobiologie est passée au crible pour en dévoiler les idéologies sous-jacentes.
