La iconografía de la "primera aparición" en la pintura valenciana

1995

Tema favorito de la pintura valenciana entre 1490-1560, la iconografía de la Primera Aparición de Cristo resucitado acompañado de los Padres del Limbo, remite a una modalidad devocional de inspiración franciscana en torno a aspectos concretos de la humanidad de Cristo. En su concepción pictórica, pudo haber influído decisívamente la Vita Christi de Sor Isabel de Villena, inspirada contribución de la literatura vernácula de fines del siglo XV, coincidente con el primer ejemplo conocido de tan interesante tema iconográfico.

Highly efficient light-emitting electrochemical cells

2016

El consumo eléctrico destinado a iluminación supone actualmente cerca del 20% de la producción energética a nivel mundial, de modo que es posible alcanzar un importante ahorro energético mediante el uso de sistemas de iluminación más eficientes. El desarrollo tecnológico permite hacer uso de aplicaciones más eficientes y novedosos en dicho campo. Los diodos orgánicos emisores de luz (OLEDs) suponen una alternativa de futuro a los dispositivos emisores de luz actuales. El procesado de materiales orgánicos se adapta más fácilmente a nuevos diseños de dispositivos emisores de luz y es, a día de hoy, una realidad en pequeñas pantallas para dispositivos móviles o similares. Sin embargo, los OLED…

La consegna educativa

2017

Nelle Lezioni di pedagogia fondamentale, curate dall'Autore, questo testo presenta una definizione del senso dell'educare. Scrive l'Autore in avvio del capitolo: "Nel capitolo precedente abbiamo visto che bisogno educativo e bisogno di riconoscimento coincidono; e si esplicita bene il senso del nesso, affermando che un tale bisogno si rivela al contempo bisogno d’intimità e bisogno di dignità. Pertanto, noi intendiamo in modo adeguato tutti i fenomeni educativi se teniamo insieme tutti e due questi lati del bisogno di riconoscimento, il primo che abbiamo denotato affettivo e l’altro che invece abbiamo chiamato etico; anche se è necessario prendere atto che, nel concreto processo educativo, …

THE 1-HARMONIC FLOW WITH VALUES IN A HYPEROCTANT OF THE N-SPHERE

2014

We prove the existence of solutions to the 1-harmonic flow — that is, the formal gradient flow of the total variation of a vector field with respect to the [math] -distance — from a domain of [math] into a hyperoctant of the [math] -dimensional unit sphere, [math] , under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. In particular, we characterize the lower-order term appearing in the Euler–Lagrange formulation in terms of the “geodesic representative” of a BV-director field on its jump set. Such characterization relies on a lower semicontinuity argument which leads to a nontrivial and nonconvex minimization problem: to find a shortest path between two points on [math] with respect to a metric w…

Absorption of oxybutynin from vaginal inserts: drug blood levels and the response of the rabbit bladder.

2000

Abstract Objectives. Oxybutynin has been used for treatment of urge urinary incontinence for more than 20 years. However, one of the major problems with its use is uncomfortable anticholinergic side effects that can lead to discontinuation of treatment. Alternative forms of drug administration may reduce side effects and thus improve patient compliance. Methods. A cylinder-shaped, curved silicone elastomer insert containing oxybutynin was anchored in the vagina of female rabbits. The inserts were designed to release oxybutynin at rates of 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 mg/day, respectively. Blood drug and metabolite levels were monitored for 1 to 7 days and cystometry was carried out after 7 days of tre…

Modeling and simulation of a High Pressure Roller Crusher for silicon carbide production

2011

Author's version of a chapter published in the book: 11th International Conference on Electrical Power Quality and Utilisation. Also available from the publisher at: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=6128963&tag=1 This paper describes the modeling and simulation of High Pressure Roller Crusher (HPRC) for the production of silicon cabide grains. The study is to make a model for simulation of a High Pressure Roller Crusher. A High Pressure Roller Crusher (HPRC) is an important part in the production of silicon carbide, where the grains are crushed into powder form and then sieved into specified sizes based on its usage. This paper will present a model based on Johanson's…

Superconducting properties of Nb thin films deposited on porous silicon templates

2008

Porous silicon, obtained by electrochemical etching, has been used as a substrate for the growth of nanoperforated Nb thin films. The films, deposited by UHV magnetron sputtering on the porous Si substrates, inherited their structure made of holes of 5 or 10 nm diameter and of 10 to 40 nm spacing, which provide an artificial pinning structure. The superconducting properties were investigated by transport measurements performed in the presence of magnetic field for different film thickness and substrates with different interpore spacing. Perpendicular upper critical fields measurements present peculiar features such as a change in the H_c2(T) curvature and oscillations in the field dependenc…

X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy at the Mn K-edge in highly homogeneous GaMnN diluted magnetic semiconductors

2006

We have studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy the local environment of Mn in highly homogeneous Ga 1-x Mn x N (0.06 <x<0.14) thin epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on [0001] SiC substrates. The measurements were performed in fluorescence mode around the Ga and Mn K-edges. In this report, we focus our attention to the X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) results. The comparison of the XANES spectra corresponding to the Ga and Mn edges indicates that Mn is substitutional to Ga in all samples studied. The XANES spectra measured at the Mn absorption edge shows in the near-edge region a double peak and a shoulder below the absorption edge and the main absorption peak after …

Electronic structure of EuO spin filter tunnel contacts directly on silicon

2011

We present an electronic structure study of a magnetic oxide/ semiconductor model system, EuO on silicon, which is dedicated for efficient spin injection and spin detection in silicon-based spintronics devices. A combined electronic structure analysis of Eu core levels and valence bands using hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy was performed to quantify the nearly ideal stoichiometry of EuO “spin filter” tunnel barriers directly on silicon, and the absence of silicon oxide at the EuO/Si interface. These results provide evidence for the successful integration of a magnetic oxide tunnel barrier with silicon, paving the way for the future integration of magnetic oxides into functional spintr…
