Recycling of almond by-products for intestinal inflammation: improvement of physical-chemical, technological and biological characteristics of a drie…
2020
Background: Almond skins are rich in bioactive compounds that undergo oxidation/degradation phenomena and are poorly soluble in water, reducing in vivo absorption and bioavailability, factors that influence the pharmacological activity of an active product. We developed a dried acetonic almond skins extract/cyclodextrin complex to improve extract solubility, dissolution rate and biological activity. Methods: A lyophilized acetonic almond skin extract was produced. To optimize complex formulation, phase solubility studies and complex characterization (absorption studies, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), morphology, solubility studies) were performed. To evaluate a possible use in hea…

A novel improved matlab-based software for the electric and magnetic analysis and design of rotating electrical machines
2015
The aim of this paper is to present a software for the analysis and design of windings of rotating electrical machines, considering both the electric and the magnetic specifications on the machine. The considered machines are induction motors (IM) and PM synchronous motors (PMSM). The software accounts for the case of buried magnets (IPMSM), but with some limits, because the calculations require a much more detailed analysis regarding the magnetic circuit. However, this initial limitation of the software, that will be removed in a later version, does not constitute a major limitation as confirmed by the examples presented in this paper.
Audiovisual processing of Chinese characters elicits suppression and congruency effects in MEG
2019
Learning to associate written letters/characters with speech sounds is crucial for reading acquisition. Most previous studies have focused on audiovisual integration in alphabetic languages. Less is known about logographic languages such as Chinese characters, which map onto mostly syllable-based morphemes in the spoken language. Here we investigated how long-term exposure to native language affects the underlying neural mechanisms of audiovisual integration in a logographic language using magnetoencephalography (MEG). MEG sensor and source data from 12 adult native Chinese speakers and a control group of 13 adult Finnish speakers were analyzed for audiovisual suppression (bimodal responses…
Many witnesses, many layers: the digital scholarly edition of the Iudicium coci et pistoris (Anth. Lat. 199 Riese)
2014
Il progetto di ricerca messo in cantiere durante l'anno della mia borsa di studio post-doc presso il Centro Linceo Interdisciplinare “B. Segre” dell'Accademia dei Lincei prevede la creazione di un'edizione critica digitale del Iudicium coci et pistoris iudice Vulcano di Vespa (Anth. Lat. 199 Riese), un testo latino tardoantico in versi con una tradizione pluritestimoniale. Tale edizione intende mettere a frutto gli apporti della semiotica, della linguistica e di quella sua parte detta grafologia, applicando le intuizioni teoriche e metodologiche di Tito Orlandi (vd. in particolare Informatica testuale, Laterza: Roma 2010); ed applicare, innovandolo, il markup XML/TEI. In tale edizione, le f…

STUDIO MINERALOGICO-PETROGRAFICO E PROBLEMI CONSERVATIVI
2011
Il capitolo illustra le risultanze dello studio delle problematiche conservative e della caratterizzazione mineralogico petrografica dei materiali lapidei del teatro ellenistico di Morgantina (Enna). Tale attività è stata finalizzata alla definizione dell'intervento conservativo del teatro. The chapter illustrates the results of the study of conservation issues and petrographic mineralogical characterization of the stone materials of the Hellenistic theater of Morgantina (Enna). This activity was aimed at defining the conservative intervention of the theatre.
Effect of Stacking Sequence and Sodium Bicarbonate Treatment on Quasi-Static and Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Flax/Jute Epoxy-Based Composites
2019
The present paper deals with the investigation of quasi-static and dynamic mechanical response of epoxy-based composites reinforced with flax and/or jute plain weave fabrics. In order to evaluate the influence of the stacking sequence, two monolithic laminates reinforced with flax or jute fibers and two hybrid flax/jute laminates were manufactured through the vacuum infusion technique. Furthermore, an eco-friendly and cost-effective surface treatment based on fiber soaking in a sodium bicarbonate solution was employed to improve the fiber-matrix adhesion. The mechanical characterization (by means of quasi-static flexural, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and Charpy impact tests) allowed …
Characterization in Training Day
2015
Elokuvatutkimuksen kasvavasta suosiosta huolimatta henkilöhahmojen tutkimus on ollut viime vuosiin asti verrattain vähäistä. Hahmot ovat kuitenkin kiistämättä elokuvien ja televisiosarjojen suola ja keskipiste, jonka ympärille tapahtumat keskittyvät. Fiktiivisten henkilöiden identiteetin muodostumisen tutkiminen onkin merkityksellistä sekä elokuvien sisällön tulkinnan kannalta, että ymmärtääksemme paremmin myös tosielämän identiteettien jäsentymistä ja vuorovaikutusta, sillä fiktiivisten hahmojen identiteettien tulkintaan käytetään samoja työkaluja kuin todellisten henkilöiden. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on tarkastella fiktiivisten henkilöiden identiteettien rakentumista elokuvassa Trai…
