Memorie di classe. Preistoria e sopravvivenza di un concetto
2020
Memorie di classe è un testo molto complesso e articolato, che si inscrive a pieno titolo nella tradizione sociologica degli studi sul mutamento sociale e culturale. La proposta in esso avanzata persegue diversi obiettivi. Il più esplicito e importante riguarda il tentativo di dar corpo ad una genealogia del concetto di classe per poi abbandonarlo, dimostrandone la non utilità, sia come categoria esplicativa dei fenomeni sociali che caratterizzano il modo di produzione capitalistico e il suo sviluppo sino alla cosiddetta globalizzazione, sia nel senso dell’identificazione di esso con il soggetto della trasformazione economica e sociale, come invece pensava Karl Marx. Ma all’interno di quest…
The influence of the cycloid disc bearing type on the cycloidal speed reducer efficiency
2021
The robotics industry has experienced a rapid expansion in the last decade. As a result, the market of speed reducers with high gear ratios, high precision and a compact design is growing rapidly. In addition to these characteristics, it is very important for gear trains to have high efficiency. Because of their compact design, cycloidal speed reducers are not exposed to axial forces, which is their important characteristic. This means that radial bearings can be used in their supports. The bearing type has significant effects not only on the design and dimensions of the cycloid speed reducer but also on its efficiency. In this paper, an analysis of power losses for different types of rolli…
Functional characterization of ORCTL2--an organic cation transporter expressed in the renal proximal tubules.
1998
AbstractChromosome 11p15.5 harbors a gene or genes involved in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome that confer(s) susceptibility to Wilms' tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, and hepatoblastoma. We have previously identified a transcript at 11p15.5 which encodes a putative membrane transport protein, designated organic cation transporter-like 2 (ORCTL2), that shares homology with tetracycline resistance proteins and bacterial multidrug resistance proteins. In this report, we have investigated the transport properties of ORCTL2 and show that this protein can confer resistance to chloroquine and quinidine when overexpressed in bacteria. Immunohistochemistry analyses performed with anti-ORCTL2 polyc.onal antibod…
Application of A Precision Apiculture System to Monitor Honey Daily Production †
2020
Precision beekeeping or precision apiculture is an apiary management strategy based on the monitoring of individual bee colonies to minimize resource consumption and maximize the productivity of bees. Bees play a fundamental role in ensuring pollination
Design of an innovative system for precision beekeeping
2019
The innovative technologies of precision agriculture can be applied today to different productive sectors of agriculture in order to optimize crop production and to improve the quality of the final products. One of these is beekeeping, a very important sector both from an environmental and a production standpoint. The production of honey depends on many factors, some of which are environmental factors such as temperature, relative humidity and wind. The aim of this study was the design of a Precision Apicolture System (PAS) platform for monitoring and controlling the main environmental factors, both inside and outside the hive, in order to assess their influence on the honey daily productio…
Patterns of weight cycling in youth Olympic combat sports: a systematic review
2022
Abstract Background Patterns of weight cycling in adult combat sports have been extensively studied, yet data on this matter in youth combat athletes is rather scarce. Methods PubMed, EBSCOhost and Web of Science were used to retrieve relevant data. Eligible studies had to record the methods used to elicit rapid weight loss (RWL) and/or record the oscillations in bodyweight during the RWL phase. Only studies conducted in the context of an official competition were considered for inclusion in the present review. Results RWL is highly prevalent in children and adolescent combat athletes, ranging from 25 to 94% depending on the type of combat sport, age and level of competition. These athletes…
Behavioural and pharmacological characterization of a novel cannabimimetic adamantane-derived indole, APICA, in C57BL/6J mice
2015
The novel adamantane derivative APICA (N-(adamtan-1-yl)-1-pentyl-1H-indole-3-carboxamide) was recently identified as a cannabimimetic indole of abuse (1, 2). Despite its novel structure, APICA recalls cannabimimetic indoles, such as representative member JWH-018. The emerging abuse problem, together with the paucity of information about the bioactivity of APICA (3) emphasize the need for further evaluation of the in vivo pharmacology of this novel indole-derived compound. In the present study, the effects of APICA (0 - 1 - 3 mg/Kg, i.p.) were tested in C57BL/6J mice, in a battery of tests that are sensitive to the effects of psychoactive cannabinoids, including body temperature; locomotor a…
Social capital development of rural community based on social networking activities in Lithuania
2018
The scholar literature on simultaneous using of social capital explore knowledge and identity resources as well as actions and interactions benefiting the community through personal bonds of individuals; issues of common trust; and adapting the current understanding in new situations. In this article, we instead examine rural community influence on social capital building of adult person in a virtual community. A quantitative survey was done in 246 local rural communities in Lithuania which reflected their community activities on a virtual basis. From the data of 500 informants we found that rural community (human social network) members were also active in the virtual communities. Research…
Intellectual capital reporting: A knowledge tool to coordinate a group of regional non-profit organisations
2017
Whilst many organizations worldwide have stopped disclosing Intellectual Capital (IC), to the best of our knowledge, the only longstanding NPO still measuring, managing and reporting its IC is a large Italian non-profit organization (NPO), ANPAS Piemonte. The main aim of the article is thus to investigate the reasons why ANPAS Piemonte continues to deal with IC, to examine the determinants of this choice, the costs and the benefits management gets from IC measurement, management and reporting. In other words, the paper aims to explore the intellectual capital (IC) reporting process from an internal, managerial point of view. The paper employ a case study methodology to address its aim, and …
¿Marxismo o diferenciación social?
2018
Para la sociología, el debate con el marxismo forma uno de los telones de fondo intelectuales y prácticos en el surgimiento de esta joven ciencia durante el siglo xix. Uno de los puntos más interesantes de esta disputa trata del grado necesario de diferenciación de las categorías analíticas para comprender los mecanismos básicos de la sociedad. La capacidad y la necesidad de reducir la compl ejidad que requiere cada ciencia, si quiere ll egar a un nivel de generalización que permita la acción social, se contrapone a una diferenciación analítica que tenga en cuenta la máxima cantidad posibl e de elementos relevantes para la comprensión de lo social. El presente artículo alumbra las relacione…
