Methanol fuel processor and PEM fuel cell modeling for mobile application
2010
International audience; The use of hydrocarbon fed fuel cell systems including a fuel processor can be an entry market for this emerging technology avoiding the problem of hydrogen infrastructure. This article presents a 1 kW low temperature PEM fuel cell system with fuel processor, the system is fueled by a mixture of methanol and water that is converted into hydrogen rich gas using a steam reformer. A complete system model including a fluidic fuel processor model containing evaporation, steam reformer, hydrogen filter, combustion, as well as a multi-domain fuel cell model is introduced. Experiments are performed with an IDATECH FCS1200™ fuel cell system. The results of modeling and experi…

Quattro diagnosi sul Florario di Francesco Buti
2009
Il messaggio etico dei testi di Francesco Buti per i "Fiori" di Girolamo Kapsperger (villanelle a 1,2,3,4 voci e Bc. del 1632) e la ricercata semplicità della musica giustificano la scelta anacronistica e stilisticamente inappropriata della titolazione di genere scelta da Kapsperger o dall’editore Masotti. Il termine villanella allude in questo caso a un giardino in cui i fiori formano un mazzetto di allegorie per il buon cristiano. Più specificamente i soggetti riguardano i miti classici collegati ai vegetali, ai quali si ispira l’autore per riprendere le leggende sull’origine dal sangue o dal latte degli dei, da cui nacquero per metamorfosi il gelsomino, la viola, la rosa, l’amaranto, l’a…
Overview on photoreforming of biomass aqueous solutions to generate H2 in the presence of g-C3N4 based materials
2023
Photoreforming (PR) of biomass can be considered a viable technology under mild experimental conditions to produce hydrogen with a high reaction rate using compounds from renewable resources and waste materials. The application of biomass PR gives rise to both hydrogen generation and biomass waste valorization. The process could be scaled up to obtain hydrogen under natural sunlight irradiation, and research on polymeric carbon nitride (g-C3N4)-based photocatalysts has been widely carried out in recent years. The non-metallic-based carbon nitride materials are economical and (photo)stable polymer semiconductors, and their physicochemical surface and electronic properties are optimal for obt…
Children’s Generalization of Novel Relational Nouns in Comparison Contexts
2021
Comparison settings (i.e. several stimuli introduced simultaneously) favor novel word learning and generalization. This study investigates the temporal dynamics of 6-year-olds solving strategies in a relational noun (e.g. “x is the dax for y”) comparison and generalization task with eye tracking data. We manipulated conceptual distance between the task’s items and recorded children’s performances and eye tracking data. We analyze and interpret solving strategies following the predictions made by two hypotheses, the Projection-First and Alignment-first. Eye tracking data clearly revealed that children, first, extract the relation from comparisons of items within a pair and search for a match…
Territorial fragmentation in post-communist Romania: the not so curious case of a de-amalgamation reform
2021
Abstract The efficiency-driven trend towards amalgamation characterising local government reforms in Europe seems to have escaped Romania, which displays a significant increase in the number of local governments post-1989. This is the result of rural first-tier local governments splitting into smaller units. The paper examines objective factors and subjective motivations that have shaped the behaviour of both national and local actors in dealing with territorial reform. First, it explores the rationale and rationality of a central government initiative to facilitate municipal splits against a set of criteria derived from the literature. Second, it examines the municipal splits occurring bet…
Aspects of “Anschauung” in the Work of Felix Klein
2018
Aimed at modernizing the teaching of mathematics at German secondary schools around 1900, The “Kleinian Reform Movement” was characterized by Felix Klein’s two key demands: “strengthening spatial intuition” and “training the habit of functional reasoning”. This paper presents a number of examples demonstrating the importance of the concept of intuition (Anschauung) for Klein and explains the role he assigned to intuition in mathematics instruction at school and university.
La buona scuola: la consultazione più grande d’Europa o una grande occasione perduta?
2015
L'articolo analizza la consultazione pubblica online dei cittadini (in corso dal 15 settembre al 15 novembre 2014) sulla riforma dell'istruzione nota come 'La Buona Scuola' illustrandone limiti ed effetti. L'articolo indaga inoltre sulle ragioni della protesta e sui movimenti sociali coinvolti. The article analyzes the online public consultation of citizens (underway from 15th September to 15th November 2014) on education reform known as 'The Good School Reform' illustrating its limits and effects. The article also explores the reasons for the protest against the reform and the social movements involved.
