Flow characteristics of a channelized debris-flow and implications in numerical modelling: a study case
2012
As it is known, debris flows are characterized by extreme propagation rapidity and by the ability to move high quantity of fluid mass. Furthermore, debris flows are fluid enough to travel long distances and, thus, to cause damage in vast areas, even far from the trigger ones. Debris-flow runout estimations are important for the delineation of potentially hazardous areas. Especially in recent years, several researches have been conducted in order to define predicitive models. But, existing runout estimation methods need input parameters that can be difficult to estimate. Recent advances in theory and in experimental research have allowed the assessment of the physics of the debris flows. On …
158. Velocity estimation of high-concentrated flows: sensitivity analysis with main parameters included in the Bagnold equation
2017
As it is known, the propagation of debris flow causes huge territorial changes and damages in short times. The motion of debris flow is determined by gravity and it especially occurs in steep mountainous areas. Debris flow velocity is an important factor which influences the impact forces and runup. In this context, in the present work attention is restricted to Bagnolds Equation with the specific aim to assess the impact of the aforementioned assumptions in flow velocity estimation.
Estensione e ciclicità di accumuli debritici tardo-pleistocenici nei bacini di Sibari e Corigliano (Mar Ionio): implicazioni per la tettonica recente…
2013
Corpi sedimentari caratterizzati da facies sismica “trasparente” di notevole spessore (sino a 35 m) sono stati documentati in più livelli della copertura tardo-pleistocenica della Piana Abissale del Mar Ionio ed interpretati come megatorbiditi innescate da megatsunami. Il più recente di questi corpi è stato posto da Autori vari, in relazione ai collassi vulcanici del Santorini o dell’Etna o al sisma distruttivo di Creta del 365 d.C. [Polonia et al., 2013]. Corpi “trasparenti” di notevole spessore (15-30 m) e estensione (> di 100 km2), sono stati segnalati anche nel Mar Ionio nord-occidentale e interpretati come accumuli debritici tardo-pleistocenici-olocenici, presumibilmente sismoindotti […
La Franosità diffusa dell'1 Ottobre 2009 nel territorio ionico-peloritano della Provincia di Messina: stato delle indagini e prime considerazioni sul…
2009
A seguito di un evento estremo di pioggia verificatosi il 1 ottobre 2009 in un settore circoscritto del versante ionico della Provincia di Messina, si sono sviluppati numerosi eventi franosi classificabili per la maggior parte come colate di fango e detrito a rapida evoluzione (debris-mud flows). Dai primi sopralluoghi effettuati, in assenza ancora di un censimento sistematico, si sono riconosciuti eventi in numero di oltre 500, che hanno interessato sia nei versanti interni dei bacini idrografici che sversano nello Ionio, sia sui rilievi direttamente prospicienti la costa. L’elevato numero di eventi occorsi ha consentito di dettagliare dal punto di vista morfologico i fenomeni avvenuti e d…
Auditing Public Debt Using Risk Management
2023
The Audit Office of the Republic of Cyprus conducted the first-ever audit of the country’s public debt, seeking answers to two key questions. Is government debt sustainable, and is debt financing efficient and effective in securing the lowest cost with acceptable risks? The audit’s findings were discussed by the parliament and can have significant ramifications for public finance. However, public debt management is quite complex, and the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions suggests that sufficient technical knowledge is essential in undertaking an audit, including an understanding of the uncertain macroeconomy, financing conditions, and government fiscal stance. We use…
Public debt sustainability and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic: the case of Latvia
2021
The Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on economic growth. Many countries are trying to stimulate their economies and help their citizens through fiscal policy, which have led to a significant increase in government debt. A significant increase in Latvia's general government debt is also being forecasted. Excessive debt threatens the sustainability of public finances and has a negative impact on the country's economic growth. The aim of this study is to assess the sustainability of general government debt in Latvia, taking into account the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of the study show that the increase in Latvia's general government debt as a result of the Covid…

Arguments and counter-arguments in the debate to decriminalize some forms of incestuous relations in Poland
2018
This study explores argumentation and counter-argumentation patterns emerging from a corpus of readers’ comments found below-the-line of over twenty-five online articles on the subject of incest, the current legal sanctions against it and the possibility to decriminalize consensual incestuous relations between adults in Poland. The comments have been coded line-byline for the types of positioning and argument premises using Atlas.ti software. Using the framework for argument analysis according to underlying premises, the comments were analyzed with respect to stance taken, practical reasoning conducted, and salient rhetorical strategies applied. They are subsequently correlated with the dis…
El derecho a permanecer en silencio a la luz del debido proceso
2019
El derecho a permanecer en silencio del imputado se configura como un derecho fundamental de vital trascendencia en el ámbito del procedimiento penal; sin embargo, este derecho se ha venido interpretado de forma muy restrictiva en la práctica judicial, al grado que, en ocasiones, su ámbito de aplicación ha sido prácticamente anulado o su ejercicio considerado, incluso, delictivo. Estas interpretaciones han llegado a desnaturalizar a tal punto este derecho, que lo han convertido más en un instrumento a favor de la acusación que en un instrumento de defensa para el imputado. La tendencia a considerar el ejercicio del derecho a permanecer en silencio como un indicio incriminador o a restringir…
