Procedure for Safety Assessment and BIM Modelling of an Historical Complex Structure through a Macroelement Approach: The Building “Molino-Pastificio…
2022
The structural assessment of existing historical structures is a complex task due to the inner main difficulty in making up reliable models for structural analysis, able to include mechanical and geometrical nonlinearities, existing damage, complex configurations and arrangements of materials. This task becomes more difficult in mixed RC-masonry structures, which structural modelling can be particularly tough due to the different connections and interactions between structural members and materials. This paper presents the case study of a multi-storey mixed Reinforced Concrete (RC)- masonry historical structure, namely the former mill “Molino-Pastificio Soresi” building, located in Partinic…
On the structural optimization in presence of base isolating devices
2012
The minimum volume design of plane frames constituted by elastic perfectly plastic material and subjected to appropriate combinations of fixed, cyclic and dynamic loads is studied. The influence on the design, in terms of cost (volume) and behavioural features, of seismic protecting devices is particularly focused. The considered protecting device is a lead rubber bearing base isolation system. Two optimal design problem formulations are proposed for the structure with or without the protecting device, both based on the so-called statical approach. The minimum volume frame is reached accounting for three different resistance limits: the purely elastic limit, the (elastic) shakedown limit an…

Virtualization of work in global supply chains
2016
ABSTRACT. Background: The paper is devoted to the notion and benefits of implementing virtual work in global supply chains. Virtual work must be understood as an intentional activity of a human being, aimed at rendering services (tangible and intangible), by means of ITC tools, performed in a distance from the traditional place of work, in a mobile manner. The empirical research were conducted on the basis of 4 case studies of global leaders of supply chains, which in accordance with M. Fisher's classification, represent two types. The case studies confirmed the positive influence of virtual work both in effective and flexible supply chains. Favourable market and technological conditions an…

Global economic burden of unmet surgical need for appendicitis
2022
Abstract Background There is a substantial gap in provision of adequate surgical care in many low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to identify the economic burden of unmet surgical need for the common condition of appendicitis. Methods Data on the incidence of appendicitis from 170 countries and two different approaches were used to estimate numbers of patients who do not receive surgery: as a fixed proportion of the total unmet surgical need per country (approach 1); and based on country income status (approach 2). Indirect costs with current levels of access and local quality, and those if quality were at the standards of high-income countries, were estimated. A human capita…
Diritti dei figli vs. genitorialità same-sex: antitesi o composizione? Il dialogo (muto?) tra la Corte costituzionale e il legislatore italiano
2021
Il contributo esamina la sentenza della Corte costituzionale n. 33 del 2021 che, dichiarata l’inammissibilità delle questioni sottoposte al suo vaglio, ha sollecitato il legislatore a rimediare all’attuale inadeguata tutela degli interessi del minore nato da gestazione per altri realizzata legittimamente all’estero. Il lavoro critica, poi, il percorso argomentativo della Consulta che, condizionata dal presupposto della assoluta e inscalfibile riprovazione nel nostro ordinamento della tecnica di procreazione medicalmente assistita, ha dato per assodato ciò che (la non trascrivibilità dell’atto straniero) in realtà avrebbe dovuto essere oggetto di scrutinio. Sollevando dubbi sull’opportunità …
