Asset modification for regional industrial restructuring: digitalization of the culture and experience industry and the healthcare sector

2021

This paper researches how firm- and system-level asset modification and alignment underpin and direct new path development from digitalization. It suggests that asset reuse mostly promotes path extension or path upgrading, while asset creation and asset destruction will be more evident in the process of path emergence. The empirics support asset modification as a key mechanism for regional restructuring from digitalization, but suggest that the typology should be more nuanced. Specifically, the empirics demonstrate asset upgrading as a key mechanism. publishedVersion

LA RINEGOZIAZIONE DEGLI ACCORDI DI RISTRUTTURAZIONE DEI DEBITI

2021

L’articolo ha per oggetto l’esame critico, con un tentativo di sviluppo anche rispetto ad ipotesi non espressamente regolate, dell’art. 58 del nuovo Codice della crisi di impresa e di insolvenza, che disciplina oggi la materia della rinegoziazione degli accordi di ristrutturazione e delle modifiche del piano, distinguendo fra la fase precedente e quella successiva all’omologazione The essay focuses – with a critical approach, also aimed to develope further implementation events – on the Section 58 of the new Crisis and Insolvency Code, now regulating the Renegotiation of Debt Restructuring Agreements, in order to face their shortcomings as well as adjustment needs, by introducing different …

Análisis de programas de mejora continua. Un estudio longitudinal en una empresa industrial

2008

Las empresas han utilizado diversas herramientas que permiten que los operarios contribuyan al proceso de mejora continua. Entre las herramientas más usadas podemos destacar los sistemas de sugerencias tanto individuales como en grupo. En esta comunicación haremos un repaso de las principales características de ambos sistemas y los modos habituales de implantación. Nuestra ponencia pretende intentar responder a estas preguntas de investigación. ¿Qué resultados se derivan de la implantación de sistemas de sugerencias individuales o en grupo? ¿Cuál de los dos sistemas es más beneficioso para la empresa? ¿Qué problemas surgen durante el funcionamiento de estos programas? Para ello, analizaremo…

El desarrollo humano sostenible: un compromiso educativo

2017

Sustainable Human Development (hereafter SHD) is taking shape as a proposal for progress in the face of a crisis in civilization so complex and far-reaching that it is considered quite difficult to solve. The aim of this article is to offer a reasoned justification of the evolution of the concept of development and of the need for an educational commitment to be able to make progress towards it. Although it is still polemical and the object of criticism, SHD has become consolidated as a strongly ethical proposal to lead the change in the course of development, transversally affecting its multiple dimensions and advocating interdisciplinary and intercultural cooperation and dialogue. The art…

Process parameters influence in additive manufacturing

2016

Additive manufacturing is a rapidly expanding technology. It allows the creation of very complex 3D objects by adding layers of material, in spite of the traditional production systems based on the removal of material. The development of additive technology has produced initially a generation of additive manufacturing techniques restricted to industrial applications, but their extraordinary degree of innovation has allowed the spreading of household systems. Nowadays, the most common domestic systems produce 3D parts through a fused deposition modeling process. Such systems have low productivity and make, usually, objects with no high accuracy and with unreliable mechanical properties. Thes…

A new design approach for customised medical devices realized by additive manufacturing

2020

AbstractThe aim of this work is the design of a new customised elbow orthosis completely realized by Additive Manufacturing and the development of generative algorithms for parametric modelling and creation of 3D patterns to be adapted to the CAD model. This work describes a method to perfect the design of a custom elbow orthosis. A reverse engineering approach has been used to digitalize the patient’s arm and the subsequent CAD modelling of the structure of the custom elbow orthosis has been performed. In particular, two algorithms have been implemented for the creation of 3D patterns and Voronoi tessellations. Subsequently, FEM analyses have been carried out to validate the design. Finall…

Influence of some relevant process parameters on the dimensional accuracy in incremental forming: a numerical and experimental investigation

2004

Abstract As known, incremental forming is a flexible and innovative sheet metal forming process which allows complex shape shells forming without the need for any die. For these reasons, incremental forming is nowadays suggested for rapid prototyping and customised products. The present paper is focused on material formability in incremental forming and, in particular, on the evaluation and compensation of elastic springback. The latter significantly modifies the imposed shape. For this purpose, a deeper assessment of the process was developed following three different approaches. First of all, a wide experimental investigation on the influence of some relevant process parameters was develo…

Iron bioavailability in iron-fortified cereal foods: The contribution of in vitro studies

2015

Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional deficiency in humans. Not all dietary ingested iron, heme or nonheme, will be available to absorption and negative imbalance between iron requirements and absorption leads to iron deficiency and/or anemia. The recommended iron values usually are based on the genetic and on diet iron-bioavailability, which can be considered as the principal factor that change among the cultures and influences the distinct levels of recommendation among countries. Dietary changes present practical limitations due to be difficult to change food habits. The iron food fortification is considered more cost effective and economically more attractive than iron s…
