Distribution grid analysys through PSAT open source tools
2015
In this paper a study of an electrical distribution grid with presence of renewable energy sources performed using the Power System Analysis Tool is presented. The paper describes the load flow analysis of a real existing grid owned by the Italian DSO “ENEL Distribuzione SpA” and located in an urban area.
Distributed intelligent control of exceptions in reconfigurable manufacturing systems
2003
In order to react to the continuous and unpredictable changes in product demand, in product variety, and in process technologies, reconfigurable manufacturing systems allow quick adjustment of production capacity and functionality by rearranging or changing their modular components. In this kind of system, operation management issues, such as exception handling policies, become more complex since correct reconfiguration strategies have to be selected. This paper explores the potential of the reconfigurability feature to be a basis for the development of new strategies to handle out-of-the-ordinary events in the production process; in particular, maintaining production flow when machine brea…
Reconfigurable control of robotized manufacturing cells
2007
This paper investigates the field of manufacturing system control. The addressed subject is indeed very fascinating, due to the importance that it has reached in the last decades both at research and industrial level. On the other hand, it seems to the author that most of the complexity intrinsic to the subject itself relies on the different meanings or levels of abstraction that both the terms ''manufacturing system'' and ''control'' may symbolize. The presented research aims to face the topic in a concrete fashion, i.e., by developing a control software system for a specific, although easy to be generalized, robotized manufacturing cell. Two different development methodologies, from the c…
A unified radio control architecture for prototyping adaptive wireless protocols
2016
Experimental optimization of wireless protocols and validation of novel solutions is often problematic, due to limited configuration space present in commercial wireless interfaces as well as complexity of monolithic driver implementation on SDR-based experimentation platforms. To overcome these limitations a novel software architecture is proposed, called WiSHFUL, devised to allow: i) maximal exploitation of radio functionalities available in current radio chips, and ii) clean separation between the logic for optimizing the radio protocols (i.e. radio control) and the definition of these protocols.
Assessment of clogging in constructed wetlands by saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements
2019
Abstract This study aims at defining a methodology to evaluate Ks reductions of gravel material constituting constructed wetland (CW) bed matrices. Several schemes and equations for the Lefranc's test were compared by using different gravel sizes and at multiple spatial scales. The falling-head test method was implemented by using two steel permeameters: one impervious (IMP) and one pervious (P) on one side. At laboratory scale, mean K values for a small size gravel (8–15 × 10−2 m) measured by the IMP and the P permeameters were equal to 19,466 m/d and 30,662 m/d, respectively. Mean Ks values for a big size gravel (10–25 × 10−2 m) measured by the IMP and the P permeameters were equal to 12,…
A Prototype of Wireless Sensor for Data Acquisition in Energy Management Systems
2018
A prototype of a wireless sensor for monitoring electrical loads in a smart building is designed and implemented. The sensor can acquire the main electrical parameters of the connected load and, optionally, other physical quantities (e.g., room temperature). Unlike other wireless sensors in literature, the proposed sensor is cheap and small, exploits the Wi-Fi network that is commonly available inside buildings, and uses a lightweight message-based communication paradigm. Besides the sensor node, two management nodes are also implemented to manage sensor reconfiguration and the persistence of data. The measured data are stored in an SQLite database and can be used for various purposes, e.g.…
Konjonkov y la escultura figurativa rusa
1990
EL TEMA DEL PRESENTE ARTICULO ES LA ESCULTURA FIGURATIVA RUSA DE LA PRIMERA MITAD DEL SIGLO XX, EN LA QUE DOMINA LA FIGURA DE KONJONKOV. SUS OBRAS ESTAN RELACIONADAS CON MOVIMIENTOS COMO EL EXPRESIONISMO ALEMAN Y CON PERSONALIDADES COMO MAILLOL. CON ESTA APROXIMACION HEMOS PRETENDIDO MOSTRAR QUE LA ESCULTURA FIGURATIVA RUSA ESTA INSERTA EN LA EUROPEA OCCIDENTAL Y NO SE PRODUCE COMO UN FENOMENO AISLADO.
Nota a Cass., sez. un., 16 luglio-23 ottobre 2020, n. 29541, Filardo, in tema di estorsione ed esercizio arbitrario delle proprie ragioni
2021
Con la sentenza in epigrafe, le Sezioni Unite della Corte di Cassazione si pronunciano sulla classica vexata quaestio dei rapporti tra estorsione ed esercizio arbitrario delle proprie ragioni. Più precisamente, dopo aver richiamato i due macro-orientamenti giurisprudenziali - l'uno tendente a valorizzare l'elemento materiale della fattispecie (sub specie, di gravità o intensità della violenza o minaccia), l'altro l'elemento psicologico -, e dopo aver rilevato il carattere "più apparente, che reale" del contrasto tra i due, propendono per una tesi mediana facente leva, oltre che sull'elemento soggettivo del reato, anche sul carattere della ragionevole convinzione della fondatezza della prete…
Presión arterial: ¿esfigmomanómetro manual o digital?
2008
El presente es un estudio prospectivo y comparativo entre la medición de la presión arterial obtenida de manera manual con esfigmomanómetro aneroide y la obtenida mediante monitor automático. El desarrollo de la práctica se realizó sobre un grupo de 100 pacientes hospitalizados en el servicio de Neurocirugía y Otorrinolaringología del Consorcio Hospital General de Valencia durante el primer trimestre del año 2007, mediante mediciones secuenciales y efectuadas por el mismo observador con ambos aparatos bien calibrados. Se observó mediante el método de correlación bivariada de Pearson que no existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las presiones tomadas por ambos aparatos det…
Intra-urban spatial distributions of population and employment : the case of the agglomeration of Dijon, 1999
2003
The aim of this paper is to analyze the intra-urban spatial distributions of population and employment in the agglomeration of Dijon (regional capital of Burgundy, France). We study whether this agglomeration has followed the general tendency of job decentralization observed in most urban areas or whether it is still characterized by a monocentric pattern. In that purpose, we use a sample of 136 observations at the communal and at the IRIS (infra-urban statistical area) levels with 1999 census data and the employment database SIRENE (INSEE). First; we study the spatial pattern of total employment and employment density using exploratory spatial data analysis. Apart from the CBD, few IRIS ar…
