Benefits of solvent concentration pulses in retention time modelling of liquid chromatography
2019
The advantages and disadvantages of the use of isocratic experimental designs including transient increments of organic solvent (i.e., pulses) in the mobile phase(s) of lowest elution strength are explored with modelling purposes. For retained solutes, this type of mixed design offers similar or better predictive capability than gradient designs, shorter measurement time than pure isocratic designs, and retention model parameters that agree with those derived from pure isocratic experiments, with similar uncertainties. The predicted retention times are comparable to those offered by models adjusted from pure isocratic designs, and the solvent waste is appreciably lower. Under a practical st…
Il tempo sospeso del processo interrotto: oltre la rimozione, un futuro per l’incompiuto
2020
Gli esiti di processi edilizi interrotti sono ascrivibili a una categoria di ambiente costruito anomala, che offre un banco di prova importante per la progettazione tecnologica dell’architettura. Infatti, il finalismo incentrato sul conseguimento di obiettivi e la visione lineare del tempo entrano in crisi a fronte di costruzioni il cui ciclo di vita non ha mai preso avvio, irriducibilmente estranee al presente e il cui futuro è controverso. Il fenomeno bipolare dell’incompiuto offre il quadro a interpretazioni dei suoi legami con la variabile tempo, intesa come fattore di trasformazione e perno del progetto architettonico. Considerandone la diffusione e l’evoluzione, si può delineare per l…
IPR gender gaps: a first look at utility model, design right and trademark filings
2018
This study extends the analysis of the gender gap in patenting into design rights, utility model (UMs) and trademarks (TMs), which are complementary methods for protecting intellectual property. The analysis is descriptive and uses register data from the Finnish patent and registration office covering the years 1982–2013. A persistent gender gap is found for all intellectual property rights. The gap has narrowed over time for national patent, design right and TM filings but not for UM filings. It is found that, in comparison to men, women are relatively less often single inventors or designers and more often members of inventor or designer teams. peerReviewed
Testing experimental designs in liquid chromatography (II): Influence of the design geometry on the prediction performance of retention models.
2021
Abstract In liquid chromatography, the reliability of predictions carried out with retention models depends critically on the quality of the training experimental design. The search of the best design is more complex when gradient runs are used instead of isocratic experiments. In Part I of this work (JCA 1624 (2020) 461180), a general methodology based on the error propagation theory was developed and validated for assessing the quality of training designs involving gradients. The treatment relates the mathematical properties of a retention model with the geometry of the training designs and their subsequent predictions. In that work, only five usual designs were considered. Part II invest…
Understanding Safety-Related Issues for Pedestrians at Modern Roundabouts
2012
This paper examines the safety-related issues for pedestrians at modern roundabouts. For this purpose findings of research studies documented in the scientific literature and best practices have been examined trying to focus on roundabout installations by a pedestrians safety perspective. Whereas one of the main reasons for which roundabouts are built is related to safety benefits, roundabout design features and implications in road casualties have been commented first to evaluate the influence of roundabouts on pedestrian safety and then to identify design elements that have such a high potential for traffic safety. At last, measures and treatments that can be taken in the roundabouts desi…
Turbo-Roundabouts: a Model to Evaluate Capacity, Delays, Queues and Level of Service
2012
A turbo roundabout is a particular type of roundabout where entering and circulating lanes are bounded by traffic signs and by non-mountable curbs. The physical separation between lanes, both at entries and on the ring, helps to prevent side collisions crossing the roundabout. The main advantages of turbo roundabouts are: i) reduction in the number of potential conflict points; ii) lower speed of vehicles passing through the intersection; iii) safety conditions at the intersection due to lower risk of side-by-side accidents. These aspects make turbo-roundabouts more appropriate than roundabouts when a higher level of safety has to be guaranteed, particularly in presence of relevant pedestri…
When is Architecture Not Design?
2019
If there’s nothing more to architecture than design, and to its attendant thinking processes than design thinking, then core dimensions of the enterprise from production and use angles have no special character over and above their counterparts in general design. Yet that does not appear to be true by the lights of architects or design specialists or the public at large. So what is it, at the core or periphery of the discipline or its objects, that makes architecture not design? The ways in which architecture and design constitute artistic enterprises, drawing on and promoting aesthetic interest, differ such that architecture is not, or at least not only, a branch of or variation on desi…
The Effect of Music on Movement Perception: Synchresis in Hits for HIIT
2021
Hits for HIIT consists in a research-creation project aiming to produce both musical pieces and training exercises for, on the one hand, optimizing HIIT practice and, on the other, enriching scholarly research on the relations between music and sports. These questions and their related studies have highlighted music/movement relations and the way they are perceived. In this paper we would like to outline how we attempt to build a two-way dialogue between the production of music adapted to HIIT and the design of workouts based on the music.
Educación artística : revista de investigación
2017
Resumen: La ensenanza del diseno en el Estado espanol tiene su inicio la decada de 1960 y se ha ido definiendo a traves de los sucesivos planes de estudio desarrollados por las autoridades educativas desde entonces hasta la actualidad. El dibujo, como conocimiento y competencia asociados a la representacion y a la ideacion de las formas, ha estado presente siempre como uno de los elementos formativos de los futuros disenadores. Ahora bien, su estatus en estos planes de estudio, y en los consecuentes programas academicos aplicados, ha ido cambiando. El examen de los diferentes planes en relacion a la formulacion de la docencia del dibujo en ellos revela innovaciones significativas. Ha habido…
