Linking structure and mechanical properties via instrumented nanoindentations on well-defined morphology poly(ethylene) Polymer 50 8 1939-1947 2009
2009
Several poly(ethylene) samples with a broad range of morphologies were studied in this work using nanoindentations. The samples had degrees of crystallinity ranging from 30 to100% while their Young’s modulus ranged from few tens of MPa up to several GPa. Experimental conditions for the correct evaluation of Young’s modulus were at first identified, choosing a suitable loading rate in order to minimize viscoelastic effects on the unloading. The force curves, i.e. plots of applied load vs. penetration depth, were then analyzed following two common procedures available in the literature. None of these procedures leads to satisfying results when compared to other experimental techniques. Howeve…
Harry Potter e la lingua dei maghi: incantesimi e formule
2017
This study explores the vocabulary used in Harry Potter and the Death- ly Hallows, with particular reference to the list of names for magic spells, charms and curses. The investigation aims at shedding light on how British writer J.K. Rowling has built the wizard’s world of Harry Potter and its linguistic universe. The aim of this survey is to emphasize recurring patterns and idiosyncrasies’ em- ployed in the construction of the magic form, which is based chiefly on neolo- gisms. The language the author has used for the creation of magic formulae is, in most cases, a kind of Latin, whose names are substantially recognizable to the reader.
Popkultūras neoloģismi ar biznesu saistītajā britu presē
2021
Šajā pētījumā apskatīta angļu valodas vārdu krājuma augšana, pētot popkultūras neoloģismus britu biznesa valodā. Darbā britu biznesa presē identificētu popkultūras neoloģismu krājums pētīts ar kvalitatīvām un kvantitatīvām metodēm, veicot morfoloģisku analīzi vārdu darināšanas tendenču izpētei, kamēr kritiskā diskursa analīze kopā ar diahronisko analīzi un salīdzinājumu dažādos tekstos veido detalizētas semantiskās interpretācijas. Semantiskā analīze liecina, ka šie neoloģismi ir galvenokārt jaunradīti ar digitālo tehnoloģiju un sociālo mediju jomām saistīti vārdi, kas skaidrojams ar intensīvu šo jomu saskarsmi ar modernajām popkultūras izpausmēm, savukārt kvantitatīvie dati norāda, ka neol…
Cranio-Facial Characteristics in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
2019
Background: Cranio-facial anomalies frequently occur in neurodevelopmental disorders because both face and brain are derived from neuroectoderm. The identification of differences in the facial phenotype of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) may reflect alterations in embryologic brain development in children with ASD. Methods: we evaluated 33 caucasian children with ASD using a 2D computerized photogrammetry. Anthropometric euclidean measurements and landmarks located on the soft tissue of the face and head, were based on five cranio-facial indexes. Relationships between anthropometric z-scores and participant characteristics (i.e., age, Global IQ, severity of autistic symptoms m…
Macroscytus raunoi, a new burrower bug species from Papua New Guinea (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae: Cydninae)
2016
Abstract Macroscytus raunoi, a new species of the genus Macroscytus Fieber, 1860, is described from the Morobe Province on the northern coast of Papua New Guinea. The new species is similar in its morphological characters to Australian M. arnhemicus J. A. Lis, 1999. Differences in morphology and male genitalia which enable separation of both species are provided.
Notes on the genus Rasilinus Mazur, 2016 (Curculionidae: Curculioninae, Eugnomini), with the description of a new species from New Caledonia
2017
New data on the genus Rasilinus (Curculioninae, Eugnomini) are provided, including the description of a new species—Rasilinus bifasciatus sp. n., from New Caledonia. Illustrations and SEM photographs of male external morphology, terminalia, and a colour habitus of the adult of the new species are provided.

TÍTULO ESPESOR COROIDEO Y MORFOLOGÍA ANALIZADO POR TOMOGRAFÍA DE COHERENCIA ÓPTICA COMO MÉTODO PARA ABORDAR LA PROGNOSIS Y LA PROGRESIÓN DE LA ENFERMEDAD OCULAR DIABÉTICA INTRODUCCIÓN La evidencia clínica in vivo de coroidopatía diabética (DC) ha sido difícil de demostrar clínicamente debido a la falta de medios para visualizar la coroides. Los avances de la tecnología de la tomografía de coherencia óptica (OCT) permitieron la visualización in vivo de la coroides. Los resultados controvertidos en la Diabetes para el grosor coroideo (CT) y la falta de identificación de los cambios morfológicos hacen que la DC identificada con OCT aún no se conozca. PROPÓSITO Evaluar si la medición por CT sol…
