Performance of Lead-Acid Batteries with Nanostructured Electrodes at Different Temperature
2018
In this work we present innovative lead-acid batteries with nanostructured electrodes, which are cycled in a wide range of temperatures typically of lead-acid commercial batteries (EN 61427-1: 2013). In comparison to parameters usually used to commercial batteries, much more stressful conditions in terms of cut-off, charge/discharge rate and discharge were imposed.
Granica państwowa w teorii pogranicza
2014
W artykule zaprezentowano wątpliwości dotyczące definiowania pogranicza polegającego na przyjęciu granicy państwowej jako podstawowego kryterium definicyjnego. Autor wychodzi z założenia, że granica państwowa może tworzyć różne relacje z pograniczem i nie jest koniecznym warunkiem istnienia pogranicza. Przede wszystkim możliwe jest wykształcenie się pogranicza społecznego, w którym to procesie granica państwowa nie odgrywa żadnej roli. Autor przedstawia siedem argumentów wyjaśniających to podejście a następnie przedstawia typologię pograniczy ze względu na ich relację z granicą państwową, dzieląc je na: pogranicze nadgraniczne, pogranicze reliktowe, pogranicze migracyjne, pogranicze mieszan…
L'espace de liberté comme mesure synthétique du développement territorial durable
2011
By discussing the concept of development itself, authors propose two synthetic indexes relying on estimation of potential: Development Space Value and Development Space Creation Under the weak hypothesis that any successful development improves future possibilities, changes in potential are a good development measure. In their path, authors show how development space is tied with freedom: a shrink in it results mechanically in indexes fall. So, "sustainable" and "economic" become two sides of same piece rather than enemies. Reliable in simulations, the approach is to be tested in real conditions, to verify full data availability and to secure calculating methods.
The role of age and digital competence on the use of online health and social care services: A cross-sectional population-based survey
2022
Objective Online health and social care services are getting widespread which increases the risk that less advantaged groups may not be able to access these services resulting in digital exclusion. We examined the combined effects of age and digital competence on the use of online health and social care services. Methods We used a large representative population-based sample of 4495 respondents from Finland. Paper-based self-assessment questionnaire with an online response option was mailed to participants. The associations were analyzed using survey weighted logistic regression, exploring potential non-linear effects of age and controlling for potential sex differences. Results Higher age,…
Axiology of the historial city and the cap rate. The case of the old town of Ragusa Superiore
2017
Il contributo affronta il tema del ruolo che il mercato immobiliare assume nei processi di valorizzazione dei tessuti urbani storici nella logica dell’approccio al valor capitale. L’articolazione, eterogeneità e multi-contestualità del patrimonio immobiliare della città storica, la molteplicità delle relazioni tra valori e prezzo, la complessa dialettica fondo/flusso, l’eterogeneità dei profili dei soggetti economici che interagiscono nel mercato, danno vita ad un assortimento di approcci all’investimento immobiliare che in questo contributo, attraverso l’analisi del saggio di capitalizzazione si intendono rappresentare. La convergenza tra valori di contesto e potenzialità inespresse da una…

Circumstances of the rise of the so-called Islamic State according to Patrick Cockburn’s perspective
2018
The aim of this article is to analyze the rise of the so-called Islamic State in the perspective of a Middle Eastern and commentator for “The Independent”, Patrick Cockburn, who also publishes in the “London Review of Books. The text begins with a sketch of the geopolitical determinants for the spread of the Islamic holy war, i.e. jihad. Then, it focuses on the disturbing phenomenon of sectarianism – directed mainly at the Shia branch of Islam – the attitudes of extremist Sunni preachers. The third chapter presents the complex combination of events that has contributed to the growth of extremist tendencies in Iraq. The subject of further deliberations is the conversion of the initially secu…
Il primo concorso per il Palazzo di Giustizia a Roma del 1884. Ricostruzione critica del progetto di Ernesto Basile
2019
1. Breve descrizione dell’oggetto di studio Il concorso del Palazzo di Giustizia di Roma si svolge in quattro fasi svolte tra il 1884 e il 1887. Il progetto per il primo concorso, del 1884, redatto dall’allora giovanissimo Ernesto Basile (Palermo 1857-1932), rivela una grande perizia progettuale che trasforma il complesso programma funzionale in un austero edificio in stile neofiorentino. I disegni originari dell’opera, non realizzata, conservati presso la Dotazione Basile del Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Università di Palermo, sono stati oggetto di studio propedeutico alle fasi di analisi, interpretazione e ricostruzione congetturale del modello digitale. 2.

The Formalisation of Water Use and Conditional Ownership in Colca Valley, Peru
2019
This article discusses the production and negotiation of water ownership among peasant farmers in the Majes-Colca watershed in southern Peru, where the public water administration initiated a process of formalising user rights for potable water in 2011. While a large-scale irrigation project channels water from the headwaters to export-oriented agriculture in the desert, the supply of water is getting scarcer because of climate change. The Peruvian water resources law from 2009 acknowledges water as public property, yet emphasises its economic value and encourages private investment. The farmers in the highlands see water not only as a resource but also as a lifegiving force provided by the…
A CRITICAL STUDY CONCERNING THE PREPARATION OF THE STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS THROUGH THE INDIRECT METHOD IN ROMANIA
2012
Although not bound by law, by option, small and medium entities from Romania can prepare the statement for the modifications within their equity and / or the statement of cash flows. When companies select this option, any decision made by the consumer of accounting information is better founded, from the perspective of information sources that it uses, rather than the opposite, because the users of accounting information about a company are almost always interested by the way in which the company generates and uses cash and cash equivalents. In this paper we present the particularities implied in Romania by the preparation of the statement of cash flows using the indirect method.
