AIAP DESIGN PER, INTERNATIONAL GRAPHIC DESIGN WEEK 2017, CULTURE VISIBILI
2017
Aiap Design Per, International Graphic Design Week, organizzata dall’Associazione italiana design della comunicazione visiva, si svolgerà nel 2017 a Roma, nella città che per storia, cultura, estensione, popolazione e ruolo strategico, politico e simbolico ha una assoluta centralità nel panorama nazionale ed è, oltre che capitale d’Italia, per antonomasia la Città, scenario ideale per le Culture visibili di cui ci occuperemo. Roma diventa il territorio sul quale riflettere e dibattere, analizzare e confrontare contesti, dinamiche, linguaggi e pratiche. Un luogo da utilizzare come contesto di riferimento da trasformare in paradigma per altre città; per prefigurare scenari futuri, per immagin…
DIO SALVI IL RESTAURO. L’apporto inglese alla cultura della conservazione dei monumenti
2020
Sebbene già riuscissimo a percepire quanto rilevante fosse l’apporto inglese per aver contribuito alla definizione del restauro modernamente inteso, sino ad oggi mancavano ancora sia una chiara visione d’insieme delle articolate vicende connesse all'affermazione dei princìpi conservativi, sia una più approfondita conoscenza delle fonti documentarie, necessarie al fine di tracciare i profili culturali dei protagonisti e scandagliarne i contributi teorici. La ricostruzione delle vicende è sviluppata entro margini temporali estesi all'incirca per tre secoli, dalla fine del Seicento al principio del Nove-cento, e strutturata attraverso la traduzione e lo studio di testi perlopiù mai circolati i…

Nanostructured anatase TiO2 densified at high pressure as advanced visible light photocatalysts
2015
This study reports on characterization and photoactivity of nanostructured TiO2 samples, which have been permanently densified under high pressures, up to 2.1 GPa. Commercial Mirkat 211 anatase has been used as a benchmark sample, in order to investigate the effect of unidirectional high pressure on structural, optical and photocatalytic properties of TiO2. Vibrational Raman spectroscopy shows that the treatment does not cause transitions among the different crystalline phases of titanium dioxide. UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra reveal that increasing pressure gives rise to a shift of the absorption onset towards higher wavelength enhancing the photoactivity under visible radiation. Samp…
Visible Light Induced Oxidation of Ferulic Acid by TiO2 Photocatalysis
2012
Oxidation of ferulic acid (C10H10O4) in aqueous medium occurs by using both commercial and home prepared TiO2 samples under visible light irradiation. Among the oxidation products vanillin was found with a selectivity ranging from 1 to 2% with respect to the converted substrate. By considering that TiO2 is unable to absorb visible light and ferulic acid does not react in the absence of TiO2, the observed photoactivity may be explained by the formation of a charge-transfer complex between ferulic acid and TiO2, being the complex able to absorb visible light. Among all the tested semiconductor oxides, only Merck anatase TiO2 does not perform the oxidation of ferulic acid under visible light i…
Vivere con una deturpazione fisica: conseguenze psicologiche e strategie di adattamento.
2013
Subjects with a congenital or acquired physical disfigurement have to cope with specific challenges related to self-perception and social relationships. Research into the objective severity of disfigurement and the quality of the subject’s psychosocial regulation revealed a non-linear and non-univocal correlation between these two variables. This review analyses factors that influence adjustment in cases of disfigurement: personal history, phase of life cycle, social support and coping strategies. From a clinical perspective it is stressed how attention to the psychological dimension increases the effectiveness of different types of psychological, educational and medical intervention.
Progressive transmission of secured images with authentication using decompositions into monovariate functions
2014
International audience; We propose a progressive transmission approach of an image authenticated using an overlapping subimage that can be removed to restore the original image. Our approach is different from most visible water- marking approaches that allow one to later remove the watermark, because the mark is not directly introduced in the two-dimensional image space. Instead, it is rather applied to an equivalent monovariate representation of the image. Precisely, the approach is based on our progressive transmission approach that relies on a modified Kolmogorov spline network, and therefore inherits its advantages: resilience to packet losses during transmis- sion and support of hetero…
Tris- and tetrakis-[oligo(phenylenevinylene)]silanes: synthesis and luminescence behaviour
2002
Abstract The connection of three or four monodisperse oligo(phenylenevinylene)s to a central silicon atom is performed via Wittig–Horner reactions. The terminal rings are substituted with alkoxy side chains. Depending on the ratio of the lengths of the rigid conjugated units and the flexible side chains, transparent films can be obtained from several of these trigonal-pyramidal or tetrahedral molecules. An intense fluorescence in the blue-green region is emitted by molecules of either shape. These compounds are interesting as active materials for electro-optical applications due to their intense fluorescence and improved film forming capability.
Potential application of some wide band gap materials for UV dosimetry
2005
Properties of some wide band gap materials–natural and CVD diamonds – have been studied for their potential application in UV dosimetry, using methods of optically stimulated luminescence and thermoluminescence. The observed properties are compared with those of the previously studied AlN ceramics. From the OSL excitation spectra, it follows that spectral sensitivity of the studied materials falls mainly into the UVC range, OSL and TL emission spectra are located within the visible light region, thus suitable for usual photodetectors. OSL stimulation spectra of the studied materials have a continuous character and are located in a broad visible/near infrared spectral region implying that th…
