L’obiettivo della sistemazione idraulica del tratto montano di un corso d’acqua e assicurare una condizione di stabilita per il cavo fluviale, mediante il raggiungimento di una condizione di equilibrio permanente tra la portata solida e quella liquida (Benini, 1984), facendo ricorso ad interventi di tipo strutturale capaci, nel rispetto della vigente normativa in tema di tutela ambientale, di conservare e preservare gli ecosistemi preesistenti a valle (Ferro, 2006, 2008).
Inkluderende læringsmiljø - fra teori til praksis : En kvantitativ studie av hvilken betydning ulike implementeringsdrivere har hatt i satsingen «Ink…
2018
Masteroppgave ledelse ORG917 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Temaet i denne masteroppgaven er implementering, som handler om å omsette teori til praksis (Fullan, 2007). Satsingen «Inkluderende læringsmiljø» startet i 2014 og omfatter barnehager, skoler og PP-tjenester i kommunene Iveland, Lillesand, Songdalen, Søgne og Vennesla. Den er forankret i et felles samarbeid «Inkluderende læringsmiljø og pedagogisk refleksjon» i de syv kommunene i Knutepunkt Sørlandet (Region Kristiansand fra 01.01.18), og er en oppfølging av regionplan Agder 2020. Formålet med satsingen «Inkluderende læringsmiljø» er å etablere en felles pedagogisk plattform for arbeidet med læringsmiljø, slik at alle barn og unge få…
Accumulation of sleep loss among shift-working truck drivers
2021
Sleep loss is known to contribute to road traffic accidents. Professional drivers are vulnerable to curtailment of sleep due to long driving bouts and shift work. To fill in the gap in the literature related to the buildup of sleep loss in irregular shift systems, we recorded the sleep and working hours of 47 shift-working long-haul truck drivers during a two-week period. Sleep (time in bed) was verified by actigraphy and sleep logs. Sleepiness was measured using the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS). Individual sleep need was based on self-assessments. We examined the accumulated sleep versus self-reported sleep need across the study period, using midnights as points of observation, and th…
Assessing risk perception over recidivist traffic offenders from a multi-group approach: how gendered could it be?
2022
ABSTRACT Objective: The core aim of this study was to examine the predictive role of demographic, psychosocial and driving features of Spanish drivers on their risk perception over recidivist traffic offenders, focusing on gender as a key differentiating factor. Method: For this cross-sectional study, it was analyzed the data gathered from a nationwide sample of 1,711 licensed drivers from the 17 regions of Spain (49% females, 51% males) with a mean age of 40.07 years, responding to a telephone-based interview on road safety issues. Demographic, driving-related and psychosocial factors were comparatively analyzed through robust tests and a bias-corrected MGSEM (Multi-Group Structural Equati…

Data from: New insights on water buffalo genomic diversity and post-domestication migration routes from medium density SNP chip data
2019
The domestic water buffalo is native to the Asian continent but through historical migrations and recent importations, nowadays has a worldwide distribution. The two types of water buffalo, i.e., river and swamp, display distinct morphological and behavioral traits, different karyotypes and also have different purposes and geographical distributions. River buffaloes from Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Romania, Bulgaria, Italy, Mozambique, Brazil and Colombia, and swamp buffaloes from China, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia and Brazil were genotyped with a species-specific medium-density 90K SNP panel. We estimated the levels of molecular diversity and described population structure, which r…

Use of driving simulators for advanced driver assistance Systems evaluation in emergency situations
2012
Introducing advanced driver assistance systems in cars has numerous consequences, particularly on drivers' behavior and their interaction with the vehicle. The expected safety benefits of assistance systems can thus be jeopardized. In order to assess the actual safety benefits, driving simulators offer a safe and cheap alternative. This doctoral work relies on experiments carried out on driving simulators with different assistance systems. A first experimental part focuses on longitudinal control assistance: we studied drivers' familiarization with a Forward Collision Warning system in critical situations. A second experimental part focuses on lateral control assistance: we studied drivers'…
Critical Analysis on the NHTSA Acceptance Criteria for In-Vehicle Electronic Devices
2014
We tested a commercial in-car navigation system prototype against the NHTSA criteria for acceptance testing of in-vehicle electronic devices, in order to see what types of in-car tasks fail the acceptance test and why. In addition, we studied the visual demands of the driving scenario recommended by NHTSA for task acceptance testing. In the light of the results, NHTSA guidelines and acceptance criteria need to be further developed. In particular visual demands of the driving scenario and for different simulators need to be standardized in order to enable fair testing and comparable test results. We suggest the visual occlusion method for finding a driving scenario that corresponds better wi…
