Evoluzione della linea di riva: un approccio idraulico per il caso studio della spiaggia di Lido Signorino (Marsala)
2014
L’evoluzione della linea di riva, limite tra terra e mare, è causata dall’interazione fra l’energia del moto ondoso e l’assorbimento di questa da parte della spiaggia. Il moto ondoso e le correnti che evolvono lungo il litorale, e in particolare il frangimento e la risalita delle onde sulla spiaggia, hanno un ruolo determinante nei processi fisici costieri più rilevanti. L'obiettivo di questo studio è stato quello di analizzare le variazioni della posizione della linea di riva di una spiaggia, dissipativa e a debole pendenza localizzata nella costa occidentale siciliana. Tale spiaggia, con un’estensione N-S di circa 3,5 km, ricade a sud della città di Marsala, tra due promontori sui quali s…
German Romantic Tradition in John Ashbery’s "Where Shall I Wander"
2019
In popular critical and readerly reception, the New York School of poetry was shaped mostly by what Marjorie Perloff calls the tradition of indeterminacy. This was started by Arthur Rimbaud and, a few decades later, developed by Dadaists and Surrealists. Therefore, the tradition of French modernism seems to have been vital for John Ashbery, Frank O’Hara, James Schuler, and Barbara Guest, and the poets themselves appeared to confirm this fact. They often visited France privately and as scholars, and lived there for extended periods of time. In the case of John Ashbery, his year-long Fulbright fellowship was prolonged to a decade. Moreover, the New York School poets contributed to the propaga…
La transmission littéraire face à la médiatisation du génocide des Tutsi au Rwanda
2020
International audience; Le rapport de la littérature à la représentation médiatique du génocide au Rwanda paraît poser un problème inédit et révélateur de phénomènes sociaux contemporains méritant d’être questionnés. Dans des sociétés comme la nôtre où l’image apparaît, d’une part, comme un matériau plus accessible, plus illustratif, un outil qui fait plus directement appel à l’affect et au ressenti, capable de déclencher un choc immédiatement, mais aussi, d’autre part, comme le vecteur privilégié des idéologies, la littérature comme medium de construction de la mémoire d’un événement demande à être redéfinie dans ses moyens et sa « poéthique ». Et ce, particulièrement dans l’ère de la « si…
Polyphased mesozoic rifting from the Atlas to the north-west Africa paleomargin
2021
24 pages; International audience; Based on the interpretation of geological maps, seismic reflection and well data complemented with a bibliographic compilation and field work in the Rif, we investigate the factors that control the rift initiation, its development and the formation of oceanic crust in NW Africa. From SE to NW, we examine the Western Sahara Atlas, the Tendrara, the Guercif, and the Rif basins, to establish their geodynamic evolution in relation with the Mesozoic formation of the Central Atlantic and Maghrebian Tethys oceans, respectively. The Triassic extension was diffuse and developed over Lower Carboniferous horst-and-graben structures formed in the NW passive margin of G…
Nonparametric estimation of quantile versions of the Lorenz curve
2018
Estimators of quantile versions of the Lorenz curve are proposed. The pointwise consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators is proved. The efficiency of the estimators is also studied in simulations
Uleczyć rany: przez nawrócenie do pełnej wspólnoty. W obliczu 500-lecia Reformacji
2017
Obchody upamiętniające 500-lecie Reformacji w wielu miejscach na świecie zostały uroczyście rozpoczęte dnia 31. października 2016 r. Jest to dzień w którym Marcin Luter upublicznił swoje tezy, w oparciu o które zamierzał rozpocząć wielką debatę na temat istotnych kierunków reformy Kościoła. W szwedzkim Lund, w uroczystej inauguracji upamiętnienia tego wydarzenia wziął udział papież Franciszek wraz z b-pem Munibem Younanem, przewodniczącym Światowej Federacji Luterańskiej oraz przedstawiciele różnych Kościołów i środowisk chrześcijańskich. Wydarzenie to zainaugurowało wielką wspólną modlitwę o jedność. Stało się też początkiem nowego etapu na drodze oceny Reformacji i osoby Marcina Lutra w o…
Mutations in the MORC2 gene cause axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
2016
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a complex disorder with wide genetic heterogeneity. Here we present a new axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease form, associated with the gene microrchidia family CW-type zinc finger 2 (MORC2). Whole-exome sequencing in a family with autosomal dominant segregation identified the novel MORC2 p. R190W change in four patients. Further mutational screening in our axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease clinical series detected two additional sporadic cases, one patient who also carried the same MORC2 p. R190W mutation and another patient that harboured a MORC2 p. S25L mutation. Genetic and in silico studies strongly supported the pathogenicity of these sequence vari…
Leakage Detection via Edge Processing in LoRaWAN-based Smart Water Distribution Networks
2022
The optimization and digitalization of Water Distribution Networks (WDNs) are becoming key objectives in our modern society. Indeed, WDNs are typically old, worn and obsolete. These inadequate conditions of the infrastructures lead to significant water loss due to leakages inside pipes, junctions and nodes. It has been measured that in Europe the average value of lost water is about 26 %. Leakage control in current WDNs is typically passive, repairing leaks only when they are visible. Emerging Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies, and especially IoT ones, can help monitor water consumption and automatically detect leakages. In this context, LoRaWAN can be the right way to deploy…
Injured Axons Instruct Schwann Cells to Build Constricting Actin Spheres to Accelerate Axonal Disintegration
2019
Summary: After a peripheral nerve lesion, distal ends of injured axons disintegrate into small fragments that are subsequently cleared by Schwann cells and later by macrophages. Axonal debris clearing is an early step of the repair process that facilitates regeneration. We show here that Schwann cells promote distal cut axon disintegration for timely clearing. By combining cell-based and in vivo models of nerve lesion with mouse genetics, we show that this mechanism is induced by distal cut axons, which signal to Schwann cells through PlGF mediating the activation and upregulation of VEGFR1 in Schwann cells. In turn, VEGFR1 activates Pak1, leading to the formation of constricting actomyosin…
