Probabilistic Flood Hazard Mapping Using Bivariate Analysis Based on Copulas
2017
This study presents a methodology to extract probabilistic flood hazard maps in an area subject to flood risk, taking into account uncertainties in the definition of design hydrographs. Particularly, the authors present a new method to produce probabilistic inundation and flood hazard maps in which the hydrological input (i.e., synthetic flood design event) to a 2D hydraulic model has been obtained by using a bivariate statistical analysis (copulas) to generate flood peak discharges and volumes. This study also aims to quantify the contribution of boundary conditions’ uncertainty in order to evaluate the effect of this uncertainty source on probabilistic flood hazard mapping. Different comb…
Costanti e metamorfosi di un mito. Beatrice Cenci nell'Ottocento, da Shelley a Guerrazzi e oltre.
2011
Il saggio ripercorre la trasformazione in mito letterario della storia di Beatrice Cenci, le la sua straordinaria fortuna nel romanzo e nel teatro europei, con riferimento particolare alla sua presa sulla sensibilità romantica e inoltre al suo ruolo nell'immaginario risorgimentale.

The role of PMCT for the assessment of the cause of death in natural disaster (landslide and flood): a Sicilian experience
2021
AbstractIn this report, the authors provide a contribution of PMCT in assessing the cause of death due to natural disasters. Here, the PMCT findings of 43 subjects who died during both landslide and flood were described. The post-mortem imaging revealed, clearly, traumatic injuries and/or the presence of foreign material in airways allowing to assess the cause of death of each subject, together with external inspection and the collected circumstantial data. Particularly, the PMCT has been helpful for characterization and localization of the clogging substance in airways providing findings on bronchial branches involvement. Moreover, the investigation offered detailed data on skeletal injuri…
A lack of meaning?
2020
This article explores the ‘lack of meaning’ in contemporary society as a consequence of Western dualist thought paradigms and ontologies, via Gilles Deleuze’s concept of ‘reactive nihilism’ following the colloquial murder of God. The article then explores processual and new materialist approaches in the understanding of the lived and carnal self, arguing for immanent and senseful materiality as an ethical platform for religious, environmental, and societal solidarity for tomorrow. For the theoretical justification of the processual approach in understanding the enfleshed self, the article employs John Dupré’s processual approach in the philosophy of biology, as well as Astrida Neimani’s cri…
Dei, semidei ed eroi nella Sicilia greca
2022
Quando la presenza di Odisseo comincia ad essere localizzata anche in Sicilia, a partire dalla seconda metà del V secolo a.C., nell’isola erano già presenti molti culti e presenze divine ed eroiche. In questa breve sintesi il paesaggio religioso siciliano è descritto attraverso quel prezioso Baedeker ante litteram che è (almeno per alcuni aspetti) la Biblioteca diodorea. When the presence of Odysseus also began to be localised in Sicily, starting in the second half of the 5th century BC, many cults and divine and heroic presences were already present on the island. In this brief summary, the Sicilian religious landscape is described through that precious Baedeker ante litteram that is (at l…
