Le Vin & la Musique. Accords et désaccords
2018
International audience; Bacchus est le dieu de l'ivresse, des plaisirs sensuels, de la fertilité comme de l'inspiration. Son cortège est animé par des satyres et des ménades dont les activités sont associées à la danse, à l'amour et la musique. L'allégorie de la musique est elle aussi fréquemment associée à l'amour, à la sensualité et au vin. Depuis l'Antiquité, cette double inspiration mythique et symbolique est au coeur d'innombrables oeuvres plastiques et visuelles, mais aussi d'objets utilitaires au décor festif, d'oeuvres musicales ou chorégraphiques et d'instruments de musique. À toutes les époques, la fête, le banquet et la taverne ont associé le vin et la musique dans tous les milie…
THE ANALYSIS OF THE ROMANIAN BANKING SYSTEM EVOLUTION IN THE IMPORTANT MILESTONES FROM ITS HISTORY
2014
One of the national systems most often marked by various internal and international macroeconomic evolutions over time was the banking system. In this paper I intend to analyze the main developments of the banking system in the outstanding moments in its history, starting with a brief characterization of the banking system before 1990, moving then towards an analysis of the developments recorded in the watershed years (1992, 1998, 2007) and getting to the current situation using several representative indicators. This analysis allows me to place in historical and current coordinates, the subject of a more extensive research aimed at highlighting the impact that Basel III will have on Romani…
La Iglesia de San Bartolomé de Valencia en el siglo XVIII (1704-1742)
2022
Mediante el análisis de documentación inédita, el presente artículo investiga lo acontecido arquitectónica y artísticamente en la desaparecida Iglesia de San Bartolomé de Valencia entre los años 1704 y 1742. Partiendo de los daños que surgieron a raíz del levantamiento del segundo cuerpo del campanario, se profundizará en la reforma decorativa de la Capilla del Santo Sepulcro, la realización del púlpito, así como la construcción del retablo mayor y su dorado. Estas intervenciones definieron artísticamente la iglesia según los cánones del barroco de corte clasicista recientemente introducido en Valencia. Otro propósito de este estudio es el de sacar del olvido la personalidad del rector Féli…

Immune Thrombocytopenia: Recent Advances in Pathogenesis and Treatments
2021
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disease due to both a peripheral destruction of platelets and an inappropriate bone marrow production. Although the primary triggering factors of ITP remain unknown, a loss of immune tolerance—mostly represented by a regulatory T-cell defect—allows T follicular helper cells to stimulate autoreactive splenic B cells that differentiate into antiplatelet antibody-producing plasma cells. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa is the main target of antiplatelet antibodies leading to platelet phagocytosis by splenic macrophages, through interactions with Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) and complement receptors. This allows macrophages to activate autoreactive T cells …
Mutual informing between IS Academia and Practice: Insights from KIWISR-5
2011
Publisher's version of an article published in the journal: Communications of the Association for Information Systems. Also available from the publisher at: http://aisel.aisnet.org/cais/vol29/iss1/7 The relationship between Information Systems (IS) scholars and IS practitioners has been debated since the birth of the IS discipline. How are academics interacting with practice, and how should we? In this article we propose that academia-practice collaboration, namely “mutual informing,” is an existential aspect of the Information Systems field. This article is based on presentations, discussions, group work, and a debate that took place during the Fifth Kristiansand International Workshop on …

Pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease: transcription factors in the spotlight.
1998
See article on page 477 Dysregulated cytokine production by mucosal lymphocytes and macrophages has been implicated in the pathogenesis of both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, the two major forms of human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).1 Over the past few years, various murine models of chronic intestinal inflammation resembling IBD have been discovered which have provided important clues as to the nature of this dysregulation and to its possible treatment with cytokines.2 Thus, in studies of several of the models most closely resembling Crohn’s disease it has been shown that production of large amounts of Th1-type cytokines—for example, interferon γ, by T cells is a major and ess…
The Relevance Of The Preform Design In Coining Processes Of Cupronickel Alloy
2007
Coining is a forging process in which a metallic disk, characterized by a low volume‐surface ratio, is deformed with the aim to impress 3D images on its three surfaces. Due to the large production volumes and, at the same time, to the high quality standards required to the final products in terms of final dimensions, tolerances and surface finishing, such closed‐die, cold forging process requires a careful evaluation and choice of the proper operative parameters. In particular, along with technological parameters as the die velocity, die stroke and lubrication, which, in turn, contribute to affect the pressure values on the die surfaces, and thus the press choice, geometrical parameters as …
Finite-element simulation of residual stress induced by split-sleeve cold-expansion process of holes
2008
A three-dimensional finite-element simulation was conducted for a split-sleeve cold-expansion process in order to determine the residual stress field around an expanded hole. The commercial FEA software DEFORM-3D™, a Lagrangian implicit code designed for metal forming processes, was used to model the cold-expansion process of a fastener hole. The results show a through-thickness residual stress field in good agreement with the analytical solution developed by Guo. Moreover, the simulation has highlighted the effect of the split sleeve and the plate thickness on the residual stress field. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
