Abstract. Various geoscientific applications require a fast prediction of fracture permeability for an optimal workflow. Hence, the objective of the current study is to introduce and validate a practical method to characterize and approximate single flow in fractures under different stress conditions by using a core-flooding apparatus, in situ X-ray computed tomography (CT) scans and a finite-volume method solving the Navier–Stokes–Brinkman equations. The permeability of the fractured sandstone sample was measured stepwise during a loading–unloading cycle (0.7 to 22.1 MPa and back) to validate the numerical results. Simultaneously, the pressurized core sample was imaged with a medical X-ray…

Electron Emission of Pt: Experimental Study and Comparison With Models in the Multipactor Energy Range
2016
Experimental data of secondary emission yield (SEY) and electron emission spectra of Pt under electron irradiation for normal incidence and primary energies lower than 1 keV are presented. Several relevant magnitudes, as total SEY, elastic backscattering probability, secondary emission spectrum, and backscattering coefficient, are given for different primary energies. These magnitudes are compared with theoretical or semiempirical formulas commonly used in the related literature.
Le cause di giustificazione della responsabilità civile e la nuova legittima difesa
2020
the essay addresses the problem of wrongfulness in torts and analyzes the recent reform of self-defense. In particular, the study highlights the effects on the structure of tort liability of the expansion of the area of necessary and proportional behavior. The essay aims to offer a systematic picture of the justifications in tort liability
Fully programmable display parameters in integral imaging by smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion
2011
Previously, we reported a digital technique for formation of real, non-distorted, orthoscopic integral images by direct pickup. However the technique was constrained to the case of symmetric image capture and display systems. Here, we report a more general algorithm which allows the pseudoscopic to orthoscopic transformation with full control over the display parameters so that one can generates a set of synthetic elemental images that suits the characteristics of the Integral-Imaging monitor and permits control over the depth and size of the reconstructed 3D scene.

Primi risultati sull'efficacia dell'olio minerale e dello spinosad nella lotta a Cydia funebrana in un susineto biologico siciliano
2011
Cydia funebrana (Treitschke) è considerato il fitofago chiave del susineto, soprattutto sulle cultivar cino-giapponesi a maturazione tardiva e nell’agricoltura biologica, a causa della mancanza di prodotti citotropici e ovicidi. Nel 2010 sono state effettuate prove per il contenimento del tortricide per valutare l’efficacia dello Spinosad e dell’olio minerale come prodotto anti-ovideponente. Le prove sono state svolte in un susineto biologico di San Giuseppe Jato (Palermo), di oltre 5 ha, su piante delle cultivar Angeleno, Friar e Stanley. Per ciascuna di esse sono state individuate tre parcelle di 50 piante, marcando al loro interno 10 piante su cui effettuare i rilevamenti; due parcelle s…

Predator population depending on lemming cycles
2016
In this paper, a Langevin equation for predator population with multiplicative correlated noise is analyzed. The noise source, which is a nonnegative random pulse noise with regulated periodicity, corresponds to the prey population cycling. The increase of periodicity of noise affects the average predator density at the stationary state.
