I Capitoli della Congregazione di Sant’Eligio di Palermo (1844) e un inedito disegno di Valerio Astorini
2011
L'autore, da un'importante scoperta presso l'Archivio Storico Diocesano di Palermo, di cui è vicedirettore, pubblica i Capitoli della Congregazione di Sant'Eligio di Palermo, documento del 1844, e un disegno inedito del 1767 di Valerio Astorini, contenuto all'interno del fascicolo con i Capitoli. Il documento è particolarmente importante perché testimonia il perdurare del corporativismo tra gli artigiani anche dopo l'abolizione definitiva delle maestranze e fornisce un elenco significativo degli orafi e argentieri palermitani attivi in quegli anni. The author, after an important discovery at Palermo’s Diocesan Historic Archive, whose he’s vice-director, publishes the Chapters of Palermo’s S…
Effect of nitrogen limitation and nature of the feed upon Oenococcus oeni metabolism and extracellular protein production
2005
Aims: The aim of the study was to characterize the effect of various nitrogen sources on Oenococcus oeni growth, carbon source utilization, extracellular protease activity and extracellular proteins. More generally, the goal is to understand how nitrogen-based additives might act to enhance malolactic fermentation in wine. Methods and Results: Five yeast extracts were used. As the amino acid and nitrogen analyses revealed, they were similar in global amino acid composition, except for arginine level. Nevertheless the ratio of amino acids between free/bound, and low/high molecular weight fractions were highly different. One of the yeast extracts led to a significant protease activity in th…
Jatkosodan retoriikka : argumentaatioanalyysi pääministeri Rangellin ja pääministeri Linkomiehen puheista
2009
Tutkimuksen tehtävänä on selvittää, millaista retoriikkaa Suomen jatkosodan aikaiset pääministerit JW Rangell sekä Edwin Linkomies puheissaan käyttivät. Tarkastelen tutkimuskysymystä analysoimalla kaksi puhetta, joista toisen puheen piti Rangell syksyllä 1941. Toinen on Linkomiehen kesällä 1944 pitämä puhe. Analysoin puheet erittäin tarkasti käyttämällä metodina valtio-opin alalla yleistä argumentaatioanalyysia. Pääasiallisena teoreetikkona käytän Chaim Perelmanin retoriikkatutkimusta ja tukena myös Aristoteleen Retoriikka-teosta sekä uudempaa retoriikka- ja sotaretoriikkatutkimusta. Aineistona työssä ovat puheet, jotka ovat kokonaisuudessaan myös gradussa mukana. Tutkimus osoittaa, että su…
Exploring the Background: Puzzles, Afterthoughts, and Replies
2017
In this paper I review the comments, and reply to the objections, put forward in the commentaries to my essay “Pre-conventions. A fragment of the Background”, published in issues n. 30 and 33 of Revus – Journal for Constitutional Theory and Philosophy of Law. My remarks fall under the following headings: 1. The social dimension of pre-conventions; 2. Pre-conventions and ordinary habits and dispositions; 3. Whether my examples are mistaken; 4. Reasons and causes; 5. Normative facts; 6. Whether abstract entities can be causes; 7. Are pre-conventions conditions of Lewis-conventions? 8. What can pre-conventions do for legal theory? 9. Whether I discharged my argumentative burdens.

El Sistema musical pitagórico y la proporción áurea en la arquitectura: El Erecteión
1999
El objetivo de este estudio analiza las interrelaciones entre la música, la proporción áurea y la arquitectura helénica, aplicado al Erecteión. Al establecer las ligazones existentes entre ambas manifestaciones artísticas actualizamos la máxima de Spengler que vinculaba el arte de las matemáticas con la música y las artes plásticas. Al mismo tiempo hemos elaborado de manera completa el desarrollo matemático de la proporción aúrea.
The History of Art that grows on trees. Art experience trough drawing, re-drawing and someone else’s drawing.
2018
The paper tells about an art education project addressed to the students of the Faculty of Education but also to the teachers in service in schools as a reflection on the role of drawing in art education. The aim is to accompany the participants into an “immersion” within the art world, and in particular the relationship between art and nature (one of the possible attitudes of art towards nature) to overcome prejudices and stereotypes often perpetuated in the drawing education. A form of education about the look passing through a first phase of activation of the cognitive transfer, a second one of “entry” into the work of art, and ends in a third one that, through the graphic medium, the dr…
Enhancer trap infidelity in Drosophila optomotor-blind
2013
Reporter gene activity in enhancer trap lines is often implicitly assumed to mirror quite faithfully the endogenous expression of the "trapped" gene, even though there are numerous examples of enhancer trap infidelity. optomotor-blind (omb) is a 160 kb gene in which 16 independent P-element enhancer trap insertions of three different types have been mapped in a range of more than 60 kb. We have determined the expression pattern of these elements in wing, eye-antennal and leg imaginal discs as well as in the pupal tergites. We noted that one pGawB insertion (omb (P4) ) selectively failed to report parts of the omb pattern even though the missing pattern elements were apparent in all other 15…
A Simple Cardiovascular Model for the Study of Hemorrhagic Shock
2020
Hemorrhagic shock is the number one cause of death on the battlefield and in civilian trauma as well. Mathematical modeling has been applied in this context for decades; however, the formulation of a satisfactory model that is both practical and effective has yet to be achieved. This paper introduces an upgraded version of the 2007 Zenker model for hemorrhagic shock termed the ZenCur model that allows for a better description of the time course of relevant observations. Our study provides a simple but realistic mathematical description of cardiovascular dynamics that may be useful in the assessment and prognosis of hemorrhagic shock. This model is capable of replicating the changes in mean …
Modelling and analysis of real-world wind turbine power curves: Assessing deviations from nominal curve by neural networks
2019
Abstract The power curve of a wind turbine describes the generated power versus instantaneous wind speed. Assessing wind turbine performance under laboratory ideal conditions will always tend to be optimistic and rarely reflects how the turbine actually behaves in a real situation. Occasionally, some aerogenerators produce significantly different from nominal power curve, causing economic losses to the promoters of the investment. Our research aims to model actual wind turbine power curve and its variation from nominal power curve. The study was carried out in three different phases starting from wind speed and related power production data of a Senvion MM92 aero-generator with a rated powe…
A 4K-Input High-Speed Winner-Take-All (WTA) Circuit with Single-Winner Selection for Change-Driven Vision Sensors
2019
Winner-Take-All (WTA) circuits play an important role in applications where a single element must be selected according to its relevance. They have been successfully applied in neural networks and vision sensors. These applications usually require a large number of inputs for the WTA circuit, especially for vision applications where thousands to millions of pixels may compete to be selected. WTA circuits usually exhibit poor response-time scaling with the number of competitors, and most of the current WTA implementations are designed to work with less than 100 inputs. Another problem related to the large number of inputs is the difficulty to select just one winner, since many competitors ma…
