Discussion of generic interpretations of Ariosto's "Orlando furioso"
Dual attachment pairs in categorically-algebraic topology
2011
[EN] The paper is a continuation of our study on developing a new approach to (lattice-valued) topological structures, which relies on category theory and universal algebra, and which is called categorically-algebraic (catalg) topology. The new framework is used to build a topological setting, based in a catalg extension of the set-theoretic membership relation "e" called dual attachment, thereby dualizing the notion of attachment introduced by the authors earlier. Following the recent interest of the fuzzy community in topological systems of S. Vickers, we clarify completely relationships between these structures and (dual) attachment, showing that unlike the former, the latter have no inh…

Codimension growth of central polynomials of Lie algebras
2019
Abstract Let L be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let I be the T-ideal of polynomial identities of the adjoint representation of L. We prove that the number of multilinear central polynomials in n variables, linearly independent modulo I, grows exponentially like ( dim L ) n {(\dim L)^{n}} .
Inverse estimation of model parameters for newborn brain cooling process simulations
2019
In this work, a three-dimensional simplified computational model was built to simulate the passive thermo-physiological response of part of a newborn’s head for neonate’s selective brain cooling. Both metabolicheat generation and blood perfusion were considered. The set of model parameters was selected anda sensitivity study was carried out. Analysis of dimensionless sensitivity coefficients showed that the mostimportant are: the contact thermal resistance between the cool-cap and skin, the thermal resistance ofthe plastic wall material, and deep (arterial) blood temperature. The function specification method wasapplied to estimate the value of the contact resistance. Two, four and six comp…
p −1-Linear Maps in Algebra and Geometry
2012
At least since Habousch’s proof of Kempf’s vanishing theorem, Frobenius splitting techniques have played a crucial role in geometric representation theory and algebraic geometry over a field of positive characteristic. In this article we survey some recent developments which grew out of the confluence of Frobenius splitting techniques and tight closure theory and which provide a framework for higher dimension geometry in positive characteristic. We focus on local properties, i.e. singularities, test ideals, and local cohomology on the one hand and global geometric applicatioms to vanishing theorems and lifting of sections on the other.
Experimental investigation on different rainfall energy harvesting structures
2018
In this paper proposes an experimental comparison between different rainfall harvesting devices and the study of the corresponding electrical rectifying circuit. More in detail, three harvesting structures are considered: the cantilever, the bridge and the floating circle. For each of the proposed structure, different waveforms have been acquired and discussed. The processed data have been compared in order to suggest the best choice for the rectifying circuit, from the simplest one to the most endorsed in the technical literature.
Identification of induction motor thermal model for improved drivetrain design
2016
Selection of components of electric drivetrains is not only based on evaluating their ability to perform according to mechanical specifications, but — what is equally important — on assessing their thermal protection limits. These are typically affected by electrical and thermal properties of motors and drives. Although rated parameters (such as power, torque, speed, etc.) are easily accessible in catalogs of equipment producers, more specific properties like mass / length of copper winding, heat dissipation factor, rotor / stator dimensions etc. are not available to customers. Therefore, effective selection of drivetrain components is limited due to the lack of sufficient data and the need…
Laser Ultrasonics Inspection for Defect Evaluation on Train Wheel
2019
Abstract Passengers’ safety and in-service life of wheelset axles play an important role in railway vehicles. For this reason, periodic inspections are necessary. Among non-destructive techniques, ultrasonic ones are widely applied in this field. The main disadvantage of conventional ultrasonic techniques is that the overall inspection of wheels requires the train to be put out-of-service and disassembly each part, which is time-consuming and expensive. In this paper, a non-conventional non-contact laser ultrasonic inspection for train wheels is proposed. The proposed method uses a laser interferometer to receive the ultrasonic wave without contact. The receiving system allows choosing the …
Structural, optical, and luminescence properties of ZnO:Ga optical scintillation ceramic
2018
This paper discusses the characteristics of ZnO and ZnO:Ga ceramics fabricated by uniaxial hot pressing. The short-wavelength transmission limit of zinc oxide ceramics is in the 370-nm region; the long-wavelength limit is determined by the free-charge-carrier concentration and lies in the interval from 5 to 9 μm. The total transmittance of such ceramics in the visible and near-IR regions is about 70% when the sample is 0.5 mm thick. The luminescence spectrum is represented by a broad emission band with maximum at 580 nm, having a defect nature. The introduction of 0.03–0.1 mass % gallium into the zinc oxide structure inhibits grain growth and increases the free-charge-carrier concentration …
