Predicting gully occurrence at watershed scale: Comparing topographic indices and multivariate statistical models
2020
In this study, the ability of five topographic indices to predict the gully trajectories observed in two adjacent watersheds located in Sicily (Italy) was evaluated. Two of these indices, named MSPI and MTWI, as far as we know, have never been employed to this aim. They were obtained by multiplying the stream power index (SPI) and the topographic wetness index (TWI), respectively, by the convergence index (CI). The predictive ability of the topographic indices was measured by using both cut-off independent (AUC: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) and dependent statistics (Cohen's kappa index κ, sensitivity, specificity). These statistics were calculated also for 100 MAR…

Human genetic polymorphisms and risk of viral infection after solid organ transplantation.
2021
The immune system plays a key role in the host defense against viral pathogens. A signaling cascade is activated upon infection involving a variety of molecules such as pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), interleukins or antiviral interferons. Long-term immunosuppression after solid organ transplantation (SOT) mainly abrogates adaptive T-cell-mediated responses, thus highlighting the relative contribution of innate immunity. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within genes coding for PRRs or soluble mediators have been associated with differential susceptibility to viral infections among SOT recipients. A protective effect against cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection or disease has been att…
A new design approach to the use of composite materials for heavy transport vehicles
2007
In order to keep or to reach a high level of competitiveness and performance of a product, it is necessary to explore all the possible solutions that allow the best compromise between costs and project requirements. By this point of view the study of alternative designs and/or materials to use, is an important aspect that can identify a new concept or way of thinking about a product. This paper presents how to make use of composite materials in the field of heavy vehicles transportation. A new semitrailer in composite material has been designed, using a methodical redesign approach and an optimisation process. The main innovation in this project is, besides the use of the Glass Fibre Reinfo…
The soundscape of the ceremonies for the beatification of St Teresa of Ávila in the Crown of Aragon, 1614
2015
[EN] The beatification of Saint Teresa of Ávila in October 1614 gave rise to widespread celebrations in many of the cities and towns of the Iberian Peninsula. Printed relaciones describing these celebrations, despite their limitations —in terms of political agenda, propaganda, rivalry and literary style— can nevertheless provide information about musical experience and can help to recreate the ephemeral soundscapes of these events. This article will focus on the ceremonies held in the Crown of Aragon, especially Saragossa and Barcelona, taking into consideration the typology of different musics —heraldic, divine and festive— and factors such as the moment in time, function, dynamic, urban s…
La tradition italienne du roman de chevalerie dans le miroir du "Don Quichotte"
2019
Résumé La tradition italienne du roman de chevalerie et le Don Quichotte ont été mis en relation principalement de deux manières. En premier lieu, la critique moderne a souvent rapproché le Quichotte du Roland furieux de l?Arioste en raison d?un dialogue à la fois textuel et structurel d?une grande complexité, s?étalant sur plusieurs niveaux de composition ; en outre, la réception et la canonisation des deux chefs-d??uvre, successifs mais idéalement conjoints, ont été liées à la dissolution de l?idéal chevaleresque, à la fondation du roman moderne, et même à la naissance de l?idée moderne de l?Homme. En deuxième lieu, le Quichotte représente une sorte de « stade du miroir » du genre après C…

Religió i religiositat en el Tirant lo Blanc
2019
Resum: El treball posa en relleu dues maneres de desenvolupar els aspectes religiosos en el Tirant lo Blanc. Una manera que encaixa amb dificultat amb la doctrina de l’Església, però que sembla ajustar-s’hi quan la pràctica de la cavalleria pren forma de croada, mentre s’exposa una vivència formal, externa i rutinària del cristianisme, malgrat la seva omnipresència; i una altra en què hom procura respectar els articles de la fe i reconduir les conductes dels personatges a una experiència de la fe menys acomodatícia, i més preocupada per les exigències doctrinals.Paraules clau: Religió, Martorell, Tirant, croada, cavalleria, erotisme, humor, psalms, litúrgia.Abstract: This paper highlights t…
Amour et mort, vie de sainteté dans la littérature et la spiritualité à València au XVème siècle : de saint Vicent Ferrer à Sor Isabel de Villena
2019
Résumé: Le Royaume de València, au XVème siècle, tient une place majeure dans l’histoire de la littérature et de la spiritualité et dans l’histoire religieuse de la péninsule Ibérique, cependant que s’achève la Reconquista et que s’unifient les Espagnes. Une même quête de réforme morale et d’élévation spirituelle s’exprime aussi bien dans les sermons du dominicain Fra Vicent Ferrer que dans les traductions d’auteurs classiques et de la Renaissance effectuées par un autre dominicain, Fra Antoni Canals. La spiritualité valencienne est militante : elle veut convaincre, séduire, donner et parfois imposer ce qu’elle reconnait comme indispensable à la perfection et au salut. Les héros valenciens …
ENTREACTO / ENTR?ACTE Un film / A Film Chopin y los Sand, amor a cuatro bandas. Aproximación a la esfera privada de Fryderyk Chopin a partir de la pe…
2021
Two centuries later, the legend Chopin-Sand continues to supply the collective imaginary with vague readings, where historical truthfulness, let alone musical truth, is often contingent on the literary. The much discussed and bellicose romance between the Polish composer and the French novelist, George Sand, tends to some reductionism and evades an obvious reality: Fryderyk Chopin meets George Sand when she was already the mother of two children. This circumstance suggests reformulating certain romantic stereotypes. Jerzy Antczak?s biographical film Pragnienie Mi?o?ci (Chopin: Desire for Love, 2002) does not overlook this detail and makes it one of its narrative axes. The relationship betwe…
