Communication Design for the Dissemination of Scientific Knowledge. Languages, Tools, Technologies, Collaborative Processes for Museum Education

2019

Il testo propone l’analisi di un articolato processo di ricerca-azione, avviato in occasione di alcune sperimentazioni didattico-scientifiche nate dalla collaborazione tra le discipline del design, della rappresentazione multimediale, delle scienze botaniche nell’Università di Palermo. L’esperienza proposta è stata centrata sulla comunicazione scientifica e sull’elaborazione di prodotti comunicativi per la didattica museale e istituzionale dell’Orto Botanico di Palermo. In quest’occasione sono stati sperimentati strumenti progettuali, tecnologie e modalità di espressione successivamente rielaborati anche in un progetto di sviluppo territoriale, che ha portato alla realizzazione del “Micromu…

Exploring citizens' legitimacy judgments about governmental refugee policies

2017

Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena on saada tietoa siitä, miten nuoret, korkeakoulutetut suomalaiset muodostavat legitimiteettiarvioitaan Suomen hallituksen pakolaispolitiikasta. Tutkimus on osa kansainvälistä tutkimushanketta, joka toteutettiin Suomessa, Saksassa ja Espanjassa. Työn teoreettinen viitekehys on legitimiteettiteoriassa ja erityisesti Suchmanin (1995) neljässä legitimiteetin alatyypissä. Tutkimusmetodeina käytetään fokusryhmätutkimusta, Q-metodia ja teoriaohjaavaa sisällönanalyysia. Tulokset osoittavat luottamusta hallituksen toimia kohtaan pakolaiskriisissä. Tämän tutkimuksen perusteella Suomen hallitukselle myönnetään legitimiteetti sen pohjalta, miten hallit…

Linking Disaster Risk Reduction and Healthcare in Locations with Limited Accessibility: Challenges and Opportunities of Participatory Research

2020

Disaster risk reduction and healthcare support each other, including the mitigation of further harm after illness or injury. These connections are particularly relevant in locations which have permanent or temporary limited accessibility. In these circumstances, people are required to be self-sufficient in providing emergency and long-term healthcare with limited resources. Planning and preparing to mitigate further harm after illness or injury from disasters (disaster risk reduction) must include people living and working in locations with limited accessibility, meaning that participatory research can be used. The challenges and opportunities of enacting participatory research in such cont…

Dual Capability EAM for Agility in Business Capability Building : A Systems Theoretical View

2021

Through two cases of IT-enabled business capability building in large enterprises, this paper elucidates how the systems theory approach can explain the enterprise architecture management (EAM) challenge to support business agility. The observation in both of these cases is that a legacy EAM approach does not adapt to a business development scenario involving agility. This leads to a study of the nature of the challenges in EAM when enabling strategic business moves involving new technologies, at the business unit level. For the type of projects as in these cases, we do not find a fitting paradigm in the EAM literature. Suggested solutions are IT bimodality, or Two Speed IT. However, its co…

Effects of pressure on the local atomic structure of CaWO4 and YLiF4: mechanism of the scheelite-to-wolframite and scheelite-to-fergusonite transitio…

2003

The pressure response of the scheelite phase of CaWO4 (YLiF4) and the occurrence of the pressure induced scheelite-to-wolframite (M-fergusonite) transition are reviewed and discussed. It is shown that the change of the axial parameters under compression is related with the different pressure dependence of the W-O (Li-F) and Ca-O (Y-F) interatomic bonds. Phase transition mechanisms for both compounds are proposed. Furthermore, a systematic study of the phase transition in 16 different scheelite ABX4 compounds indicates that the transition pressure increases as the packing ratio of the anionic BX4 units around the A cations increases.

Behaviour of common estimators in dynamic error-components models with autocorrelated disturbances

1997

The purpose of this paper is to make a presentation of the properties of a set of estimators comprising the within, between, OLS and GLS estimators in the study of dynamic error - components models with autocorrelated disturbances. We underline in this study the importance of the statistical distribution governing the initial values for the process and the structure of xit variable for the limiting values of the estimators when the temporal dimension is fixed but the individual dimension N grows indefinitly.

A symmetric nonlocal damage theory

2003

The paper presents a thermodynamically consistent formulation for nonlocal damage models. Nonlocal models have been recognized as a theoretically clean and computationally efficient approach to overcome the shortcomings arising in continuum media with softening. The main features of the presented formulation are: (i) relations derived by the free energy potential fully complying with nonlocal thermodynamic principles; (ii) nonlocal integral operator which is self-adjoint at every point of the solid, including zones near to the solid's boundary; (iii) capacity of regularizing the softening ill-posed continuum problem, restoring a meaningful nonlocal boundary value problem. In the present app…

Fronts propagating with signal dependent speed in limited diffusion and related Hamilton-Jacobi formulations

2021

We consider a class of limited diffusion equations and explore the formation of diffusion fronts as the result of a combination of diffusive and hyperbolic transport. We analyze a new class of Hamilton-Jacobi equations arising from the convective part of general Fokker-Planck equations ruled by a non-negative diffusion coefficient that depends on the unknown and on the gradient of the unknown. We explore the main features of the solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equations that contain shocks and propose a suitable numerical scheme that approximates the solution in a consistent way with respect to the solution of the associated Fokker-Planck equation. We analyze three model problems covering d…
