Compact city: agent-based simulation and sustainability assessment
2013
Wymiar społeczny w projektowaniu zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta
2020
Artykuł zawiera rozważania na temat związku społecznie zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta i projektowania urbanistycznego. Wyrażając przekonanie, że równowaga społeczna jest jednym z podstawowych elementów zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta, autor zaznacza jednocześnie, że projektowanie urbanistyczne ukierunkowane na realizację celów zrównoważonego rozwoju może nie uzyskać akceptacji społecznej. W artykule wskazano na różne podejścia do zdefiniowania społecznie zrównoważonego rozwoju obszarów miejskich. Starano się również określić, które elementy projektowania urbanistycznego mają szczególne znaczenie dla jego realizacji, zwracając uwagę na przestrzenną formę miasta i kwestię dostępności przestrzeni…
Target Cooling Options for Neutron Sources at High Power Densities
2014
Abstract Compact neutron sources in many cases beat large ones when it comes to power density; thus, many issues concerning cooling are shared, and each party can learn a lot from the other facilities. Starting from accrued experience with water cooling at moderate power densities in SINQ over the last 15 years, a brief overview will be attempted showing the relevant parameters and specific approaches at several existing and planned neutron (spallation) sources. Extensions from the established ground of cooling with water will be sketched in two directions. An outline of an experiment planned for freshly determining in a representative geometry the hard limit for water cooling, i.e. full bo…
APPLICAZIONE DI UN PROTOTIPO DI MOTOVANGATRICE PER PRESERVARE LA FERTILITÀ DEL SUOLO
Negli ambienti caratterizzati da forti pendenze o sistemati a terrazze, nell’ambito delle lavorazioni superficiali, viene impiegato diffusamente il motocoltivatore provvisto di zappatrice rotativa. Tuttavia, l’effetto dell’uso ripetuto della zappatrice per lavorazione del terreno ha una notevole influenza sulle caratteristiche del terreno, che si presenta finemente polverizzato, soffice e astrutturato. Al fine di limitare tali inconvenienti, è stata progettata dalla sezione Meccanica del Dipartimento Scienze Agrarie e Forestali dell’Università di Palermo, in collaborazione con la ditta costruttrice Agrotec di Padova, una macchina innovativa semovente provvista di organi di lavoro del tipo a…
Fabry Disease With Concomitant Lewy Body Disease
2019
AbstractAlthough Gaucher disease can be accompanied by Lewy pathology (LP) and extrapyramidal symptoms, it is unknown if LP exists in Fabry disease (FD), another progressive multisystem lysosomal storage disorder. We aimed to elucidate the distribution patterns of FD-related inclusions and LP in the brain of a 58-year-old cognitively unimpaired male FD patient suffering from predominant hypokinesia. Immunohistochemistry (CD77, α-synuclein, collagen IV) and neuropathological staging were performed on 100-µm sections. Tissue from the enteric or peripheral nervous system was unavailable. As controls, a second cognitively unimpaired 50-year-old male FD patient without LP or motor symptoms and 3…
Managing Municipal Solid Waste: Energetic and Environmetal Comparison among different options
2001
Goal. This research aims to assess the environmental effects of integrated strategies in a municipal waste management system. In particular, analysis is focused on a waste stream in Palermo, where landfill involves the prompt disposal of the most waste after collection. The current local management system is compared with two integrated waste management alternatives. Both the options comply with Italian regulations, but each one predicts adopting the available technologies in different ways. Methods and objectives. Energetic and environmental balances are carried out in each management system referring to local waste composition in order to quantify energy consumption, the recovery of mater…
Impact of Fragile X Syndrome on Their Families
2020
espanolEl objetivo del presente estudio es describir las alteraciones conductuales y emocionales en el sindrome de X fragil (SXF) y analizar las reperecusiones de tener un miembro con SXF en diferentes aspectos del funcionamiento familiar. Participaron 79 padres con un miembro con SXF y 80 padres con un miembro con desarrollo tipico. Los resultados mostraron que entre el 17% y el 66% de los ninos y adolescentes con SXF mostraron trastornos conductuales y emocionales significativos y menos comportamientos prosociales. Ademas, despues de controlar las dificultades emocionales y de comportamiento, nuestros resultados mostraron que las familias afectadas por SXF experimentaron un impacto mas ne…
Exposing ecological and economic costs of the research-implementation gap and compromises in decision making
2018
The frequently discussed gap between conservation science and practice is manifest in the gap between spatial conservation prioritization plans and their implementation. We analyzed the research-implementation gap of one zoning case by comparing results of a spatial prioritization analysis aimed at avoiding ecological impact of peat mining in a regional zoning process with the final zoning plan. We examined the relatively complex planning process to determine the gaps among research, zoning, and decision making. We quantified the ecological costs of the differing trade-offs between ecological and socioeconomic factors included in the different zoning suggestions by comparing the landscape-l…
Pesquisa científica em contabilidade gerencial: estudo comparativo entre Espanha e Brasil
2012
Nas últimas décadas a contabilidade gerencial teve um desenvolvimento acentuado, com inclusão de novos temas e métodos de investigação, revistas exclusivas, e principalmente estudos com perspectivas multidisciplinares. Uma das formas de perceber e entender esse nível de desenvolvimento é estudar suas publicações nas principais revistas. Assim, o objetivo é realizar um estudo comparativo sobre contabilidade gerencial entre a Espanha e o Brasil. Para tanto, foram selecionados 421 artigos de sete revistas espanholas de contabilidade listadas no IN-RECS (Índice de Impacto das Revistas Espanholas de Ciências Sociais), e 245 artigos de seis revistas brasileiras listadas na Capes. Por tanto, anali…
Have tractor manufacturers bore in mind soil compaction over the last 40 years?
2019
Soil compaction is the compression of soil particles in a lower volume as a consequence of the reduction of the spaces existing among the particles themselves. This phenomenon is caused by natural forces and, above all, human ones. In order to estimate the field damages that can be caused by the traffic of agricultural machines, the load and the mean pressure applied by the tyres onto the soil can be measured. The research aim is to determine the pressure applied by each considered tractor onto the soil, in order to evaluate the effect of the traffic of tractors onto the soil itself. A total of 783 wheeled tractors manufactured and marketed in the last 35 years (1979-2014) was investigated.…
