Palermo Waterfront: the “fluid city” planning
2012
The most dynamic cities in the future will no longer be those that are able to attract iconic urban projects and investors driven by the real estate market focused on waterfront development, but the cities that have extensive cultural and ecological coastal resources and that are able to use them as the basis for creating new social identity and economic value. In a growing dematerialised development, the waterfronts of European cities are intersected by flows of the Network Society. They are subjects of experience economy and crossed by more powerful forces of regeneration and creativity-driven development. After the simple function of interfaces between sea and land, waterfronts are going…
Dal waterfront alla città liquida. Patologie relazionali e nuovi orizzonti del progetto
2012
I waterfront delle città europee si offrono alla nostra azione progettuale come rinnovate porte di scambio tra flussi di economie. Oltre che da fasci infrastrutturali sono sempre più attraversati da economie della conoscenza, da potenti forze di rigenerazione e sviluppo e molteplici economie di scambio li alimentano e ne connotano le fisionomie. Superata la funzione di semplici interfacce tra mare e terra, assumono quella di “portali” di connessione globale dei flussi materiali e immateriali. Da aree produttive, commerciali e funzionali si propongono come trasformatori di economie tra le reti lunghe globali e le armature dei contesti locali. Le nuove funzioni produttive e della mobilità nav…
CLINICAL AND NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL FINDINGS IN 47 LONG-TERM SURVIVORS OF CHILDHOOD MALIGNANCIES TREATED WITH VARIOUS DOSES OF VINCRISTINE
1978
ABSTRACT 96 long-term survivors of cancer in childhood were reexamined after succesful therapy. In 49 who had not been treated with VINCRISTINE (VCR) reflex status and motor conduction velocities were normal. In contrast, 47-after treatment with VCR-had loss of deep tendon reflexes in a high rate and a prolongation of sensory CV independent of the 1 total cumulative dose of VCR, 2 application mode according to different treatment regimen, 3 time interval since the last injections of the drug, 4 age of children at onset of therapy.
From Waterfront Regeneration to Fluid City Planning
2013
In current global crisis the strong flows of financial, social and relational capitals that powered urban regeneration over the last fifteen years are no longer available to be tapped in an indiscriminate manner as was the case until just a few years ago. The most dynamic cities in the future will no longer be those that are able to attract urban projects and investors driven by the real estate market or leisure-based development, but the cities that have deep and different cultural resources and that are able to use them as the basis for creating new urban cultures and for generating new economic values. Revitalising waterfront is no longer easy opportunity for long-term investments or for…
The Reshaping of the City-Port Interface in Palermo: A Case of Successful Urban Governance?
2023
In the last decades, various port cities in western countries have developed policies to make shipping activities more compatible with the urban environment and organization. This paper provides a critical interpretation of the process that is leading to the regeneration of the waterfront area of Palermo, the Italian fifth largest city by population. In a first part of the paper the events and economic factors that have negatively impacted on the city-port spatial relations are outlined. Subsequently, in the light of the new governance relations established between the city and port authorities, the strategy and main interventions of the port masterplan that is currently reshaping the city-…
Multivariate Methods Based Soft Measurement for Wine Quality Evaluation
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Abstract and Applied Analysis. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/740754 Open Access Soft measurement is a new, developing, and promising industry technology and has been widely used in the industry nowadays. This technology plays a significant role especially in the case where some key variables are difficult to be measured by traditional measurement methods. In this paper, the quality of the wine is evaluated given the wine physicochemical indexes according to multivariate methods based soft measurement. The multivariate methods used in this paper include ordinary least squares regression (OLSR), principal c…
Polar Localization of a Tripartite Complex of the Two-Component System DcuS/DcuR and the Transporter DctA in Escherichia coli Depends on the Sensor K…
2014
The C4-dicarboxylate responsive sensor kinase DcuS of the DcuS/DcuR two-component system of E. coli is membrane-bound and reveals a polar localization. DcuS uses the C4-dicarboxylate transporter DctA as a co-regulator forming DctA/DcuS sensor units. Here it is shown by fluorescence microscopy with fusion proteins that DcuS has a dynamic and preferential polar localization, even at very low expression levels. Single assemblies of DcuS had high mobility in fast time lapse acquisitions, and fast recovery in FRAP experiments, excluding polar accumulation due to aggregation. DctA and DcuR fused to derivatives of the YFP protein are dispersed in the membrane or in the cytosol, respectively, when …

Multicenter Consistency Assessment of Valvular Flow Quantification With Automated Valve Tracking in 4D Flow CMR
2021
OBJECTIVES This study determined: 1) the interobserver agreement; 2) valvular flow variation; and 3) which variables independently predicted the variation of valvular flow quantification from 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with automated retrospective valve tracking at multiple sites. BACKGROUND Automated retrospective valve tracking in 4D flow CMR allows consistent assessment of valvular flow through all intracardiac valves. However, due to the variance of CMR scanners and protocols, it remains uncertain if the published consistency holds for other clinical centers. METHODS Seven sites each retrospectively or prospectively selected 20 subjects who underwent whole …
Comprehensive Strategy for Proton Chemical Shift Prediction: Linear Prediction with Nonlinear Corrections
2014
A fast 3D/4D structure-sensitive procedure was developed and assessed for the chemical shift prediction of protons bonded to sp3carbons, which poses the maybe greatest challenge in the NMR spectral parameter prediction. The LPNC (Linear Prediction with Nonlinear Corrections) approach combines three well-established multivariate methods viz. the principal component regression (PCR), the random forest (RF) algorithm, and the k nearest neighbors (kNN) method. The role of RF is to find nonlinear corrections for the PCR predicted shifts, while kNN is used to take full advantage of similar chemical environments. Two basic molecular models were also compared and discussed: in the MC model the desc…
