Chiese colonnari e tiranti metallici (Palermo XVI-XVII secolo)
2014
The churches with aisles of arches and columns are an archetype of Sicilian architecture. From the Middle Ages to the 18th century, the preference for this plan resulted in experiments, evolutions and tests concerned with the science of building in a land exposed to the danger of earthquakes. Contrary to the recommendations dispensed and disseminated by the most authoritative treatises, the cases presented illustrate how metal tie-rods were used at construction sites in Palermo during the Modern Age when building these constructions. These elements were able to counter the thrust generated by the arches and vaults or caused by earthquakes on slender and isolated vertical structures like col…
Psychometric Properties and a Preliminary Validation Study of the Italian Brief Version of the Communication Styles Inventory (CSI-B/I)
2020
People will typically develop a communication style that tends to be coherent with their own fundamental personality traits. The current debate on communication style acknowledges the construct of adaptive behavior as an appropriate area where to include both the strictly personal aspects and social learning and cultural assimilation, which translate into communicative style as a specific form of adaptation integrating the behavioral and personality perspectives. Due to the lack of instruments in the Italian psychometric scenario to assess communication styles, the present study included the translation and validation of the Italian short version of the Communication Styles Inventory (CSI-B…
Réseaux territoriaux & Dynamiques territoriales : Apports de l’Intelligence Territoriale
2015
National audience; "L’intelligence territoriale est le projet scientifique polydisciplinaire dont l’objet est le développement durable des territoires et dont les communautés territoriales sont les sujets." Jean-Jacques GIRARDOT, 2013Il s'agit d'une intelligence collective qui se fonde, d’une part sur l’interaction entre chaque être humain et son environnement et, d’autre part, sur les relations entre les personnes.Les réseaux dee structures, d’institutions, de collectivités, d’associations, ONGs, d’acteurs, de citoyens, abolissent certaines frontières, en reconstruisent d’autres, permettent de désectoriser, de favoriser l’approche globale...De multiples vertus, comme de multiples ennuis ! …

Līdzdalības didaktiskās stratēģijas kā dažādības pedagoģiskais risinājums vidusskolēniem STEM kompetenču iegūšanas procesā
2017
Mūsdienu pasaulē, kur tehnoloģijas nemitīgi turpina attīstīties, skolotājiem ir nepieciešams pielietot šo iespaidīgo rīku, lai rosinātu ieinteresētību skolēnos un motivētu viņus. Viens no Meksikas Vidējās izglītības sistēmas reformas mērķiem ir attīstīt vispārējas un disciplināras kompetences Fizika IV priekšmetā starp dažādiem vidusskolas skolēniem. Lai sasniegtu šo mērķi, tiek izmantotas tādas didaktiskās stratēģijas kā prezentācijas klasē un savstarpēja sadarbība starp skolēniem, kas tiek papildinātas ar Robert Marzano Dimensiju teoriju, konstruktīvisma fokusu un padziļinātu mācību apguvi. Pielietojot šīs stratēģijas, tiek demonstrēts, ka motivēti skolēni strādā labāk, apgūst kompetences…
The new version of the pictorial scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence in Spanish children: Evidence of validity and reliability. [La nueva ve…
2019
The purpose of this study was to i) examine reliability and construct validity of the pictorial scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence (PMSC) aligned to the third version of the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3) in a sample of Spanish children; and to ii) analyse the validity of the PMSC and children’s perceived motor competence (MC) according to gender. A convenience sample of 361 children (55.7% boys) between 4 and 11 years-old participated. The pictorial scale of PMSC (19 items) was administered (a random subsample repeated the PMSC twice). Test-retest reliability using Intraclass Correlation Coefficients and construct validity using a Bayesian Structural Equation Modeling a…
Evaluación por rúbricas de la Composición Escrita en 2º ciclo de Educación Primaria
2015
Evaluación por rúbricas de la Composición Escrita en 2º ciclo de Educación Primaria. Resumen El objetivo de este estudio de tesis doctoral es elaborar y validar un sistema de rúbricas como instrumento de evaluación e información de los procesos docentes, permitiendo la medición de aprendizajes complejos; en concreto, la habilidad para componer textos escritos, cuando aún no está consolidada esta subcompetencia; es decir, durante su proceso de adquisición. El nivel educativo seleccionado para la obtención de las muestras de producción escrita es 2º Ciclo de Educación Primaria, con alumnos entre los 8 y 10 años. Y la cuestión es ¿evalúa la rúbrica construida lo que intenta medir? Para ello, s…
Improving Image Quality in a multi-plane Compton Telescope for Hadron Therapy Monitoring
2023
Esta disertación explora diferentes técnicas para mejorar la calidad de las imágenes obtenidas con cámaras Compton. Tal mejora es una de las necesidades principales que obstaculizan la aplicación de cámaras Compton como herramientas para la verificación en tiempo real de terapia hadrónica, a través de la obtención de imágenes de distribuciones espaciales de emisión rápida de rayos gamma emitidos como subproductos de las interacciones de estos hadrones en el paciente. Esta aplicación presenta importantes dificultades, pues requiere medir rayos gamma de energías relativamente altas emitidos en un rango de energías amplio y junto a otras partículas no deseadas. Además, la cámara Compton debe s…
Development of Neural Network Prediction Models for the Energy Producibility of a Parabolic Dish: A Comparison with the Analytical Approach
2022
Solar energy is one of the most widely exploited renewable/sustainable resources for electricity generation, with photovoltaic and concentrating solar power technologies at the forefront of research. This study focuses on the development of a neural network prediction model aimed at assessing the energy producibility of dish–Stirling systems, testing the methodology and offering a useful tool to support the design and sizing phases of the system at different installation sites. Employing the open-source platform TensorFlow, two different classes of feedforward neural networks were developed and validated (multilayer perceptron and radial basis function). The absolute novelty of this approac…
