Radiative heat exchanges of people in complex geometry buildings: An experimentally based algorithm for computing angle factors
2008
Thermal comfort of people working or living in confined spaces depends, to a large extent, on the radiative thermal exchanges. These contributions are expressed, among other things, as a function of the mean radiant temperature that, in the general cases where there is a presence of high intensity sources, must be expressed as a function of the angle factors between subjects and the surrounding surfaces of enclosures. Angle factors, in turn, depend on the projected area factors. Despite this evidence, at the present there is a lack in the availability of simple and reliable methods capable of computing angle factors of people in assigned postures with respect to complex geometry buildings. …
Il Monte Etna in una macchina dei fuochi del 1693 a Palermo
2012
Fra le celebrazioni dedicate annualmente alla santa protettrice di Palermo, Santa Rosalia, in età barocca, il “festino” del 1693, celebrato pochi mesi dopo il sisma che aveva devastato la Sicilia sud-orientale, spicca per il marcato carattere di eccezionalità che gli si volle attribuire, con l'evidente volontà di esorcizzare l'immane catastrofe che aveva colpito l'isola. Tutti gli apparati furono pensati in relazione al tema dei terremoti. Si scelse in particolare di raffigurare il Monte Etna nella macchina dei fuochi, adottando un modello per nulla inedito; d’altronde il parallelismo fra il vulcano in eruzione e una grande macchina pirotecnica riusciva di immediata comprensione, finendo pe…

Neck Pain Rehabilitation
2016
Neck pain is par excellence one of the most common disorders of the musculoskeletal system, second only to low back pain. It constitutes 40 % of all backache. The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) defines pain of cervical origin coming from an area between the nuchal line and another imagi-nary line that passes through the lower end of the spinous process of the first thoracic vertebra and the sagittal plans tangent to the side edges of the neck. This definition considers therefore posterior pain which in turn can be divided into high pain, up to C3, and lower pain, down from C4. Also, as all diseases, it can be divided into acute and chronic neck pain, merely according…
Fashion-driven Textiles as A Crystal of A New Stream for Stakeholder Capitalism – Amazon's Endeavor
2020
Fashion reflects changes in socio-economic and cultural life which, in turn, changes fashion, and apparel boosts such change. Thus, in response to a shift in people’s preferences from economic functionality to supra-functionality beyond an economic value, the fashion industry has been gaining momentum worldwide. In the digital economy, the fashion industry is in the midst of global dynamic change stimulating volatility, velocity, variety and dynamism, which necessitate a digital solution. Digital business leader Amazon has succeeded in constructing an R&D-driven disruptive businesss model. This can be attributed to a virtuous cycle among user-driven innovation, advancement of the …

La Sindrome da Disfunzione Lacrimale e le malattie sistemiche
2011
L'autore traccia un breve escursus sulle malattie sistemiche che possono determinare la "sindrome dell"occhio secco", al fine di un corretto inquadramento diagnostico ad uso degli ambulatori oculistici, caratterizzati da un ambiente "Low tech" ma con un elevato flusso di utenza.
Dupuytren contracture in diabetic hand
2011
Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a fibroproliferative disorder of unknown origin causing palmar nodules and flexion contracture of the digits. About 5% of individuals with DD are diabetic, with an increased prevalence that is proportional to the duration of the diabetes. The association with diabetes mellitus is well recorded, with a reported prevalence of between 3% and 32%. This review considers the evidence behind the association between DD and diabetes mellitus, considering the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and therapies that can be found in the literature.
