Chicago e la tradizione dei vetri decorativi: Louis Comfort Tiffany e Frank Lloyd Wright
2012
Pensando all’arte sviluppatasi in America a cavallo tra Ottocento e Novecento non possono non venire in mente le figure di Louis Comfort Tiffany e Frank Lloyd Wright, due grandi protagonisti di quel tempo passati alla storia come pionieri, il primo nell’ambito delle arti decorative e il secondo nello specifico architettonico, ma ancora oggi fonte di ispirazione per designer all’avanguardia.
Incorporation of lutein and docosahexaenoic acid from dietary microalgae into the retina in quail
2015
Abstract Lutein and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are associated with the prevention of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Since microalgae are potent natural sources of these nutrients, their nutritional value should be evaluated based on the bioavailability of lutein and DHA for the retina via the plasmatic compartment. In this study, quail were fed for 5 months either with a diet supplemented or deprived with microalgae rich in lutein and DHA. In the microalgae-fed group, the retinal concentrations of lutein and zeaxanthin gradually increased whereas in plasma, these compounds started to increase from the first month of supplementation. We also observed a significant increase in retina…
Fuzzy motion control strategy for cooperation of multiple automated vehicles with passengers comfort
2008
This paper considers motion control for a cooperative system of automated passenger vehicles. It develops a cooperative scheme based on a decentralized planning algorithm which considers the vehicles in an initial open chain configuration. In this scheme the trajectories are intersections-free, and each trajectory is planned independently of the others. To ensure the stabilization of each vehicle in the planned trajectory, a fuzzy closed loop motion control is presented, where, based on the properties of the Fuzzy maps, the Lyapunov’s stability of the motion errors is demonstrated for all the vehicles. Based on the ISO 2631-1 standard, the saturation property of the Fuzzy maps guarantees lo…

METODI E STRUMENTI PER LA VALUTAZIONE DEL COMFORT VISIVO
2012
Il corretto svolgimento del compito visivo viene garantito dalle adeguate condizioni del microclima luminoso in ambiente, che risultano fondamentali per la produttivita del soggetto. Nella ricerca, si e evidenziato come alcuni dei parametri di valutazione degli ambienti, illuminati naturalmente, attualmente utilizzati, nel caso oggetto dello studio, come il Daylight Factor medio [%] e il fattore di uniformita, richiedano una applicazione critica e mirata, affinche possano fornire un quadro qualitativo completo delle condizioni reali dell’ambiente. Frequentemente, a causa di alcuni gradi di liberta all’interno degli intervalli di accettabilita definiti dalla normativa, la descrizione, comune…

La visite des maisons fortes de la châtellenie de Semur-en-Brionnais en 1390 : étude et édition
2014
International audience; En 1390, alors qu’on annonce le passage imminent d’une troupe d’Anglais qui évacue le Forez (Auvergne), l’officier-châtelain de Semur-en-Brionnais, Guillaume de Saint-Privé, entreprend une visite de huit forteresses de sa circonscription. Il note soigneusement toutes les réparations qu’il ordonne, ainsi que la date exigible de réception des travaux. Le petit rouleau de papier rédigé à l’occasion permet de voir l’implication des communautés villageoises dans la mise en défense des maisons fortes, et les techniques de défense en œuvre dans les villages à la fin du XIVe siècle.
Development of internalizing symptoms during adolescence in three countries: the role of temperament and parenting behaviors
2022
AbstractThis longitudinal study examined the unique and joint effects of early adolescent temperament and parenting in predicting the development of adolescent internalizing symptoms in a cross-cultural sample. Participants were 544 early adolescents (T1: Mage = 12.58; 49.5% female) and their mothers (n = 530) from Medellín, Colombia (n = 88), Naples, Italy (n = 90), Rome, Italy (n = 100) and Durham, North Carolina, United States (African Americans n = 92, European Americans n = 97, and Latinx n = 77). Early adolescent negative emotionality (i.e., anger and sadness experience), self-regulation (i.e., effortful control), and parent monitoring and psychological control were measured at T1. Ad…
Two- and three-dimensional evaluation of the upper airway after bimaxillary correction of Class III malocclusion
2009
Objective The aim the study was to evaluate area and volumetric changes in the upper airway after bimaxillary correction of Class III malocclusion by the means of computer tomography (CT), and to compare these to the changes in linear measurements from lateral cephalograms. Study design This was a prospective clinical trial. Lateral cephalograms and CT scans of 10 Class III patients were evaluated 1 week before and 6 months after surgery. Wilcoxon matched pairs signed ranks test was used to determine the differences in measurements pre- and postoperatively. Spearman's rank correlation was used to test the association between the CT and cephalometric measurements. Results CT measurements: Th…
