La lingua “inventata” di Andrea Camilleri: il peso della parola dialettale
2019
la singolare lingua delle opere di Andrea Camillerii spinge a considerare – semmai ce ne fosse bisogno – che la scrittura letteraria è fatta di parole e qualche appunto sulle parole può certo aiutare a cogliere i meccanismi del plurilinguismo letterario e, nel caso di Camilleri, le ragioni di un grandissimo successo editoriale e di una straordinaria popolarità. Le opere di Andrea Camilleri mostrano una certa (ma non spropositata) quantità di lessico “prettamente dialettale” (pari a circa il 20% delle parole che non coincidono con quelle dell’italiano letterario). Ma mentre una parte di questo lessico autoctono (costituito da voci di bassa frequenza all'interno di ciascuna opera e nell'inter…
Dimensionless Analysis Of Slurry Photocatalytic Reactors Using Two-Flux And Six-Flux Radiation Absorption-Scattering Models
2007
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) over titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a "green" sustainable process for the treatment and purification of water and wastewater. However,the application of PCO for wastewater treatment on an industrial scale is currently hindered by a lack of simple mathematical models that can be readily applied to reactor design. Current models are either too simplistic or too rigorous to be useful in photocatalytic reactor design, scale-up, and optimization. In this paper a simple mathematical model is presented for slurry, annular, photocatalytic reactors that still retains the essential elements of a rigorous approach while providing simple solutions. The model extends the appli…
Influence of the dissolution of MnS inclusions under free corrosion and potentiostatic conditions on the composition of passive films and the electro…
2006
Abstract The influence of the dissolution of MnS inclusions at the OCP value and 400 mV versus SCE on the chemical composition of passive films and the electrochemical behaviour of resulfurized austenitic stainless steel was studied in 1 M NaClO 4 , pH 3, solution using SIMS, XPS, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the electrochemical microcell technique. The electrochemical dissolution (at 400 mV versus SCE) of inclusions occurred uniformly along the interface and this process was almost complete after 25 min immersion. A small amount of sulfur was detected on the matrix that exhibited a wide passive range. By contrast, the dissolution process under free corrosion was not uniform a…
Arbitrarily shaped plates analysis via Line Element-Less Method (LEM)
2018
Abstract An innovative procedure is introduced for the analysis of arbitrarily shaped thin plates with various boundary conditions and under generic transverse loading conditions. Framed into Line Element-less Method, a truly meshfree method, this novel approach yields the solution in terms of the deflection function in a straightforward manner, without resorting to any discretization, neither in the domain nor on the boundary. Specifically, expressing the deflection function through a series expansion in terms of harmonic polynomials, it is shown that the proposed method requires only the evaluation of line integrals along the boundary parametric equation. Further, minimization of appropri…
Assessing use and suitability of scanning electron microscopy in the analysis of micro remains in dental calculus
2014
AbstractDental calculus is increasingly recognized as a major reservoir of dietary information. Palaeodietary studies using plant and animal micro remains (e.g. phytoliths, pollen, sponge spicules, and starch grains) trapped in calculus have the potential to revise our knowledge of the dietary role of plants in past populations. The conventional methods used to isolate and identify these micro remains rely on removing them from their microenvironment in the calculus, thus the microenvironment that traps and preserves micro remains is not understood. By using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDX) on modern chimpanzee calculus from the Taï Forest, Côt…
Le “brigand lusitanien” reconsidéré. Analyse du problème de la terre chez Appien
2015
The study of the “Lusitanian robbery” led to an important research since the late nineteenth century.Nevertheless, and despite a gradual shift in modern historiography towards a more nuanced approachto the origin of the phenomenon, the problem of land still remains a central concern of many historiansand archaeologists. From a close discussion of the main passages of Livy, Diodorus and Appian especiallyrelating to the relationship that some have sought to establish between lack and / or poverty ofthe land and development of robbery among the Lusitanians, it gives a review of the socio-economicinterpretation.
Aparatūra “Lotoss” poliuretāna plastmasas detaļu atliešanai kosmosā
2020
1980. gadā kosmosa stacijā “Salūts” pirmoreiz kosmonautikas vēsturē tika realizēts putupoliuretāna ieguves eksperiments mikrogravitācijas apstākļos, kura rezultāta tika iegūtas jaunas atziņas par ķīmiski tehnoloģisko procesu norisi kosmosā. Kosmosā tapa Maskavas olimpisko spēļu simbola lācīša figūra. Iekārtu "Lotoss", kas pašreiz atrodas Latvijas Ķīmijas vēstures muzeja krājumā, LPSR Zinātņu Akadēmijas Koksnes ķīmijas institūtā izstrādājis latviešu ķīmiķis, ķīmijas doktors, izgudrotājs un gleznotājs Arnolds Alksnis, un tā domāta polimerizācijas reakciju pētīšanai bezsvara stāvoklī.

Energy-efficient routing control algorithm in large-scale WSN for water environment monitoring with application to Three Gorges Reservoir area
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: The Scientific World Journal. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/802915 Open Access The typical application backgrounds of large-scale WSN (wireless sensor networks) for the water environment monitoring in the Three Gorges Reservoir are large coverage area and wide distribution. To maximally prolong lifetime of large-scale WSN, a new energy-saving routing algorithm has been proposed, using the method of maximum energy-welfare optimization clustering. Firstly, temporary clusters are formed based on two main parameters, the remaining energy of nodes and the distance between a node and the base station. Secondly,…
