Image and Copy in Contemporary Deconstruction of Platonism
2017
This paper aims at investigating the relationship between some contemporary Interpretations of Plato's Ontology and the Theory of Image-Copy connection developed in many Dialogues such as Sophist, Philebus, Timaeus and Republic. By examinating some of the most relevant criticisms to this Theory cast by french Philosophers such as Deleuze and Derrida and by retracing the roots of these criticisms to the common source of Nietzsche's and Heidegger's Thought, the paper argues a way to overcome the stiff opposition which is commonly held between these two fronts, thus trying to refine the hermeneutical approach to Plato which almost dominated the XX century.
Validez de instrumento para medir la competencia territorial. Matriz READI para la autoevaluación de territorios competentes
2021
El artículo presenta el diseño metodológico seguido para el análisis de la validez y fiabilidad de una matriz cuya finalidad es la de permitir a los territorios autoevaluar su grado de competencia potencial para la consecución de objetivos ligados al desarrollo local. Se ha seguido un diseño de estudio descriptivo de construcción de conceptos, dimensiones e indicadores y de verificación de escalas multidimensionales a través de análisis factorial y validez de constructo. El análisis cuantitativo realizado combinado con aportaciones cualitativas de personas expertas, concluye que la matriz es un instrumento válido y confiable para su cometido.
Experimental results on adsorption beds for air dehumidification
2016
Desiccant rotors are commonly used in large scale solar cooling open cycle applications. As is well known, adsorption heat sensibly reduces the dehumidification capacity of the desiccant material and results in lower system performance. The aim of this work is to describe an innovative solution that permits simultaneous mass and heat transfer. In particular, two components working with silica gel fixed beds were studied and compared. The first component is a simple packed bed containing silica gel grains. The second component is a fin and tube heat exchanger commonly used in several air conditioning applications wherein the spaces between the fins are filled with silica gel grains. In this …
Implementing climate impacts in road infrastructure in the design phase by combining BIM with LCA
2019
Abstract Building information modelling (BIM) software is increasingly being used in as a visual road design tool and offers real-time information on material demands as designs change. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a tool that is used to measure the lifetime environmental impacts of systems, materials and processes. LCA data sets are organized according to process or product, which is ideal for implementation as a parameter in BIM. This paper seeks to explore how BIM and LCA can be used together in road design by analysing existing literature, creating a Norwegian test case on a road designed in a BIM model and adding LCA data to the model before comparing to a standard LCA study of the s…

Solutions for the Design and Increasing of Efficiency of Viscous Dampers
2016
In last decades many strategies for seismic vulnerability mitigation of structures have been studied and experimented; in particular energy dissipation by external devices assumes a great importance for the relative simplicity and efficacy. Among all possible approaches the use of fluid viscous dampers are very interesting, because of their velocity-dependent behaviour and relatively low costs. Application on buildings requires a specific study under seismic excitation and a particular attention on structural details. Nevertheless seismic codes give only general information and in most case the design of a such protection systems results difficult; this problem is relevant also in Italy whe…
Risk factors for residual disease at re-TUR in a large cohort of T1G3 patients
2021
Item does not contain fulltext Introduction and objectives: The goals of transurethral resection of a bladder tumor (TUR) are to completely resect the lesions and to make a correct diagnosis in order to adequately stage the patient. It is well known that the presence of detrusor muscle in the specimen is a prerequisite to minimize the risk of under staging. Persistent disease after resection of bladder tumors is not uncommon and is the reason why the European Guidelines recommended a re-TUR for all T1 tumors. It was recently published that when there is muscle in the specimen, re-TUR does not influence progression or cancer specific survival. We present here the patient and tumor factors th…
L'héritage politique et intellectuel de Manuel Azaña : instrumentalisation ou réhabilitation
2008
International audience; L'objet de cette analyse est de s'interroger sur les enjeux politiques de la mémoire collective tout en menant une réflexion sur la charge symbolique qui est associée à certains personnages ayant marqué le cours de l'Histoire. Afin de bien comprendre l'évolution concernant le regard que l'on porte désormais sur l'action politique de Manuel Azaña, l'article s'attache à étudier les différentes modalités de représentation de cette figure emblématique de la Deuxième République espagnole.
Development of Methods for the Classification of EVOOs According to Their Genetic Variety
2012
The aim of this work was to construct an LDA model able to classify EVOOs according to their genetic variety by using FTIR data.
The Aspects of the Development of Children Speech in their Constructive Activity
2015
One of the most important task of the pre – school pedagogical process is to promote the development of the chidren thinking and imagination. One of the method is the constructive activity whick aim is to develop the children abstractive thinking and imagination. Constructive activity concerns several children processes of cognition, it promotes the perceptivities, thinking, imagination, understanding of the environment, it makes the child to think of the colours, shapes and connections of the items. Construction promotes the development of the speech, it introduces children with mathematical conceptions and the base of geometry. Wider conceptions and understanding about the construction ac…
