Setting the agenda for research on issue arenas
2014
Purpose– This paper seeks to contribute to the field of corporate communication by clarifying the theoretical basis of communication in issue arenas and proposing an agenda for research on issue arenas.Design/methodology/approach– Drawing on insights from stakeholder thinking, network theory, issues management, and agenda-setting theory, the authors identify different levels of analysis that could explain the behaviour of organisations in the public debate on current issues.Findings– The organisation-centred approach is replaced by a strong emphasis on interaction in networks of organisations, groups and individuals. Decision-making on communication strategies can be further developed by an…

Misfit evaluation of dental implant-supported metal frameworks manufactured with different techniques: Photoelastic and strain gauge measurements
2016
This study aims to compare in-vitro the fitting accuracy of implant-supported metal frameworks used for full-arch orthodontic restoration. The hypotheses tested were as follows: (1) for a fixed implant morphology, strains developed within the framework depend on how the framework had been fabricated and (2) stresses transferred to the implant–bone interface are related to the amount of framework misfit. Metal frameworks were fabricated using four different manufacturing techniques: conventional lost-wax casting, resin cement luting, electrospark erosion, and computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing milling. Each framework was instrumented with three strain gauges to measure strai…
Quantitative Approximation Properties for the Fractional Heat Equation
2017
In this note we analyse \emph{quantitative} approximation properties of a certain class of \emph{nonlocal} equations: Viewing the fractional heat equation as a model problem, which involves both \emph{local} and \emph{nonlocal} pseudodifferential operators, we study quantitative approximation properties of solutions to it. First, relying on Runge type arguments, we give an alternative proof of certain \emph{qualitative} approximation results from \cite{DSV16}. Using propagation of smallness arguments, we then provide bounds on the \emph{cost} of approximate controllability and thus quantify the approximation properties of solutions to the fractional heat equation. Finally, we discuss genera…

Nei Luoghi del design. Azioni e interazioni
2008
Il testo raccoglie alcune riflessioni sulla definizione “Luogo” in relazione alla definizione di “Design” ambiguamente identificato con il termine “Industriale” quale connotazione imprescindibile della sua natura disciplinare. È nelle relazioni complesse tra i due termini: Luoghi e Design che si dispiegano i tre paragrafi del volume, veri filtri di lettura o “luoghi metaforici” per leggere la complessità in cui si trova ad operare oggi il design nel suo significato più ampio di progetto: Il primo filtro, che si avvale della coppia concettuale “astratto / concreto”, individua luoghi di relazioni tra strategie progettuali proprie della disciplina del design (sia legati ad artefatti comunicati…
occhio al design
2012
Il volume ci conduce in un’appassionante passeggiata tra i molteplici settori di applicazione del design e le relazioni che esso intesse con le altre discipline progettuali. È con questi obiettivi di formazione che si articola il lavoro di Santo Giunta ormai da anni impegnato a insegnare design nella scuola di Architettura di Palermo. L’autore offre una griglia densa di riflessioni in cui è possibile estrapolare alcuni nodi problematici del progetto contemporaneo individuabili: nel confronto tra globalizzazione e localizzazione, nella principio di crescita sostenibile, nello sviluppo della tecnica, nella rivoluzione informatica e della sua inevitabile ricaduta sui sistemi della comunicazion…
Monitoring Commercial Starter Culture Development in Presence of Red Grape Pomace Powder to Produce Polyphenol-Enriched Fresh Ovine Cheeses at Indust…
2021
Red grape Nero d’Avola cultivar grape pomace powder (GPP) was applied during fresh ovine cheese production in order to increase polyphenol content. Before cheeses were produced, the bacteria of a freeze-dried commercial starter culture were isolated and tested in vitro against GPP. Two dominant strains, both resistant to GPP, were identified. Thestarter culture was inoculated in pasteurized ewe’s milk and the curd was divided into two bulks, one added with 1% (w/w) GPP and another one GPP-free. GPP did not influence the starter culture development, since lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts were 109 CFU/g in both cheeses at 30 d. To exclude the interference of indigenous LAB, the pasteurized m…
Electrochemical incineration of oxalic acid in the presence of NaCl
2008
Recent researches have demonstrated that electrochemical methods offer an attractive alternative to traditional routes for treating wastewaters containing toxic or/and refractory organic pollutants. The effectiveness of the electrochemical treatment depends on many factors including the presence in solution of specie able to act as mediators. In particular, the effect of chloride ions on the performances of the process has been the object of numerous researches. However, up to now, many practical and theoretical aspects about this argument are not completely clear. In the present work, the anodic incineration of oxalic acid (OA) in the presence of NaCl has been investigated with the aim of …
