Identity formation of the modern lifestyle entrepreneur
2016
Purpose- The purpose of this thesis is to explore the identity of lifestyle entrepreneurs in the Millennial demographic. Prior research is extensive on the construction of identity as well as lifestyle entrepreneurship as a discipline. However, there are gaps in research for the latest generation of entrepreneurs. Their approach to business, lifestyle, and work-life balance differs greatly from their predecessors. Aim- This thesis aims to capture the unique essence and identifying factors of lifestyle entrepreneurs who are in their mid-twenties to mid-thirties. The goal of the researcher is to contribute to the understanding and acceptance of the new age of business owners through accounts …

The Need for More Rhetoric in the Public Sphere. A Challenging Thesis About Post-Truth
2018
Since it hit the headlines and aroused the interest of scholars, the phenomenon of posttruth has received two main different interpretations: someone has observed that in the phenomenon there is nothing really new: lies and fakes are always existed and the only real difference is represented by the speed with which today, thanks to the means of communication, they spread. Others, on the other hand, have emphasized the close relationship between postmodernism and post-truth, arguing that the first one is the ideological background of the second one. Our paper aims to show that in order to frame post-truth in the right perspective, we need the theoretical framework offered by the rhetoric. In…
Biological Monitoring Using Lichens as a Source of Information About Contamination of Mountain with Heavy Metals
2022
Abstract The aim of this study was passive biomonitoring of the mountains of southern Poland. Lichens Hypogymnia physodes were used for the study. Concentrations of the heavy metals Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb were determined in these lichens. The concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The analysis of the concentrations of the determined heavy metals in the lichen thallus allowed to determine the places with the highest and the lowest contamination with a given heavy metal in the study area. It was shown that the area of Great Czantoria and Big Soszow is the most contaminated with heavy metals among the investigated areas. The study shows that the transport of analy…

The Sirocco's chamber of Micciulla manor in Palermo : a bioclimatic archetype symbol of legality and civil redemption
2019
La Camera dello scirocco di fondo Micciulla è uno degli oltre trenta esemplari di un antesignano sistema di raffrescamento passivo ipogeo, diffusosi a Palermo tra il XVII e il XVIII secolo. Grotte artificiali scavate al di sotto o in prossimità delle dimore palermitane presso le quali i ricchi signori si rifugiavano per sfuggire alle elevate temperature estive, rese spesso insopportabili dal caldo vento africano di Scirocco. Tra tutte, la Camera dello Scirocco di fondo Micciulla è forse la più nota non solo per la sua particolare e unica struttura “a cielo aperto”, ma anche e soprattutto per i trascorsi storici ad essa legati. Il presente contributo intende ripercorrere le fasi più signific…

Enabling Energy Savings in Offshore Mechatronic Systems by using Self-Contained Cylinders
2019
This paper proposes a novel actuation system for an offshore drilling application. It consists of three self-contained electro-hydraulic cylinders that can share and store regenerated energy. The energy saving potential of the proposed solution is analyzed through a multibody system simulation. The self-contained system demonstrates superior energy efficiency compared to the benchmark system representing the state-of-the-art approach used today (i.e., valve-controlled cylinders by means of pressure-compensated directional control valves and counter-balance valves, supplied by a centralized hydraulic power unit). Due to the power on demand capability, the cancellation of the throttling losse…
LA CASA EOLIANA: UN SISTEMA DI RAFFRESCAMENTO PASSIVO
2012
The Aeolian archipelago is a microcosm of traditional buildings that have retained their original character and form constructive. The special traditional technologies used and the climatic conditions of the site were also used for the application of a solution used in traditional passive systems with the aim of contributing to energy savings through the application of a particular covering of chestnut wood.
