Activation of the Cyano Group at Imidazole via Copper Stimulated Alcoholysis
2019
Reactions of 4,5-dicyano-1-methylimidazole with CuX2 (X = Cl, Br) in alcohol solvents (ethanol and methanol) resulted in the formation of Cu(II) carboximidate complexes [CuCl2(5- cyano-4-C(OEt)N-1-methylimidazole)(EtOH)] (1), [Cu2(µ
Unified theory for analysis of curved thin-walled girders with open and closed cross section through HSA method
2016
Abstract The behaviour of thin-walled structures is deeply influenced by non-uniform torsion and cross section distortion. In this paper the extension of the Hamiltonian Structural Analysis (HSA) Method to thin-walled straight and curved beams is presented. The proposed method solves the structural elastic problem of thin-walled beams through the definition of a Hamiltonian system composed of 1st order differential equations. The method allows engineers to solve the elastic problem by introducing the degrees of freedom and the corresponding compatibility equations, founding equilibrium equations in the variational form. The methodology is explained in the framework of the so-called Generali…
The southern Tyrrhenian Sea margin an example of lithospheric scale strike-slip duplex
2010
The southern Tyrrhenian Sea margin is dominated by deformations whose kinematics are relatively poorly constrained, and different models have been proposed to account for its recent evolution. Analysis of new structural and space geodesy data, combined with available geophysical information, reveal a deformation field characterised by subhorizontal NW-SE directed shortening and SW-NE directed extension. The main recognised regional-scale structure comprises E-W trending fault zones, namely the Ustica-Eolie Line and the Mt. Kumeta-Alcantara Line, connected by the NW-SE trending Marettimo, Trapani, San Vito, Palermo, Gratteri-Mt. Mufara and Eolie faults. This fault network displays a remarkab…
Real-Time Detection of Incipient Inter-Turn Short Circuit and Sensor Faults in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drives Based on Generalized Likelih…
2022
This paper presents a robust model-based technique to detect multiple faults in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), namely inter-turn short circuit (ITSC) and encoder faults. The proposed model is based on a structural analysis, which uses the dynamic mathematical model of a PMSM in an abc frame to evaluate the system’s structural model in matrix form. The just-determined and over-determined parts of the system are separated by a Dulmage–Mendelsohn decomposition tool. Subsequently, the analytical redundant relations obtained using the over-determined part of the system are used to form smaller redundant testable sub-models based on the number of defined fault terms. Furthermore, fo…
Symplectic analysis of thin-walled curved box girders with torsion, distortion and shear lag warping effects
2022
Shear lag effect and torsional and distortional warping can significantly affect the performance of thin-walled curved box girders used in modern bridge engineering. The structural behaviour of these bridges exhibits complexity due to coupled bending and torsion together with warping effects of non-uniform torsion, distortion and shear lag. A practical method of analysis, based on the symplectic approach, with the same perspective as the Higher Order Beam Theories, is presented for overcoming the difficulties of numerical approaches via the Finite Element Method. In this paper, the Hamiltonian Structural Analysis method implements the analysis of the shear lag effect together with non-unifo…
Analysis of non-uniform torsion in curved incrementally launched bridges
2014
Abstract Incremental launching is a common and convenient methodology to build continuous girder bridges on several piers. Although it has mainly been applied to straight bridges with box sections, today it is also used for construction of horizontally curved bridges with concrete and composite steel–concrete closed or open sections like I-girders. In these cases the contribution of torsion to the stress state becomes of primary importance when the construction stages of these bridges are analysed. Moreover, the presence of thin-walled cross-sections, makes the analysis of non-uniform torsion fundamental when the angle of twist per unit length is not constant or warping is prevented in thos…
Le discours du mythe
2008
Limité à ce tournant encore peu exploré des études ethnologiques qui chevauche les années 1960, cet article explore quelques aspects de la transition de Lucien Sebag de sa formation philosophique à la théorie ethnologique, transition dont les piliers les plus importants sont l’apprentissage auprès de Claude Lévi-Strauss et ses enquêtes de terrain chez les Aché-Guayaki de la zone orientale du Paraguay et chez les Ayoré-Moros du Chaco paraguayen et bolivien. L’article met particulièrement en lumière la contribution de Sebag à l’analyse structurale des mythes et, par le dépassement de l’approche marxiste et de la démarche psychanalytique, les nouvelles perspectives qu’en accord avec la linguis…
Synthesis and structural studies on Ni(II) dithiocarbamates : Exploring intramolecular Ni···H-C interactions
2017
Abstract Five new Ni(II) dithiocarbamates with NiS4, NiS2PN and NiS2PCl coordination spheres, viz. [Ni(bupmbzdtc)2] (1), [Ni(bupmbzdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (2), [Ni(bupmbzdtc)(PPh3)Cl] (3), [Ni(4-dpmpzdtc)(PPh3)Cl] (4) and [Ni(pbbzbudtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (5), where bupmbzdtc = N-butyl(p-methylbenzyl)dithiocarbamato anion, 4-dpmpzdtc = 4-(diphenylmethyl)piperazinecarbodithioato anion, pbbzbudtc = N-(p-bromobenzyl)butyl-dithiocarbamato anion and PPh3 = triphenylphosphine, were synthesized and characterized by UV, IR, NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Spectral results suggest a square planar geometry around the Ni(II) metal center for all the synthesized complexes. Single crystal X-ray stru…

Modelli interoperabili per Cultural Heritage Recording. Le cupole a torrini di Sicilia e Castiglia.
La ricerca indaga l’origine e l’evoluzione di uno specifico modello di cupola su tamburo a pianta circolare o poligonale, con contrafforti cilindrici sull’asse dei piloni della crociera. Sei casi studio in Spagna e in Sicilia sono stati studiati attraverso il riesame delle fonti storiche e sono state analizzate le matrici geometriche sottese al progetto; i casi studio ancora esistenti sono stati rilevati con metodi laser scanning e fotogrammetrici. I modelli tridimensionali sono stati utilizzati per una verifica del contributo statico offerto dai torrini alla stabilità delle strutture. The research work is focused on the origin and the modifications of a peculiar dome on tambour having a ci…
