Renewable energy sources for energy consumption needs of Malta Island in Mediterranean sea
2016
The main purpose of this paper is to analyse the energetic condition of the Maltese islands and its electrical energy production, focusing on the employment of Renewable Energies in order to increase its energy independence. The main renewable source here proposed is wave energy: thanks to its strategic position, Malta will be able to produce electrical energy using an innovative type of Wave Energy Converter (WEC) based on the prototype of linear generator realized by University of Palermo. The use of this new technology will be able to cut down the electrical energy production from traditional power plants and, consequently, the greenhouse gases emissions (GHG). The procedures applied in …

Nobiltà allo specchio. Ordine di Malta e mobilità sociale nella Sicilia moderna
2009
Malo esse quam videri. La fonte documentaria dei processi di nobiltà degli Ordini militari (o religioso-cavallereschi), e dell’Ordine di Malta in particolare, ha dimostrato la sua utilizzabilità come “specchio” nel quale seguire le evoluzioni di una società – in particolare quella siciliana lungo i secoli dell’età moderna – in continuo mutamento e, perciò, teatro di frequenti conflitti tra famiglie in cerca di affermazione politico-economica. Come tutte le rappresentazioni di una società, quella risultante dai processi di nobiltà è naturalmente un’immagine indiretta, riflessa dalla particolarità della fonte utilizzata. L’analisi attenta dei singoli dossier dei processi di nobiltà svela spes…

Studies for low mass, large area monolithic silicon pixel detector modules using the MALTA CMOS pixel chip
2021
Abstract The MALTA monolithic silicon pixel sensors have been used to study dicing and thinning of monolithic silicon pixel detectors for large area and low mass modules. Dicing as close as possible to the active circuitry will allow to build modules with very narrow inactive regions between the sensors. Inactive edge regions of less than 5 μ m to the electronic circuitry could be achieved for 100 μ m thick sensors. The MALTA chip (Cardella et al., 2019) also offers the possibility to transfer data and power directly from chip to chip. Tests have been carried out connecting two MALTA chips directly using ultrasonic wedge wire bonding. Results from lab tests show that the data accumulated in…
Oltre le mura della Valletta: architettura religiosa a malta nella prima metà del seicento
2020
Between the end of the sixteenth century and the first half of the Seventeenth Century, the intense building activity that affected the Maltese archipelago favored the diffusion of the innovations introduced in the projects for Valletta. The construction of new parish churches offered numerous opportunities for the experimentation of Renaissance architectural language, through the use of new decorative repertoires and the models offered by Italian treatises.
«Tiene per altro il cappellano nella sua galera sempre dinanzi un campo grande di messe». L’assistenza religiosa nell’Ordine di Malta in un’istruzion…

The article analyses unpublished instructions written by a vice-prior of the Order of St. John in the late seventeenth century. They were directed at the conventual chaplains providing religious support to knights, soldiers and crew (including slave rowers) during the naval campaigns of the Order galleys, the so-called “caravane”. On one hand the work was inspired by literature on the “Christian soldier” (whose authors were often Jesuits), on the other it brought together the spiritual care issues directly experienced by the same chaplains on board. What emerged is their lack of preparation in fully accomplishing their pastoral duties in the cramped and mixed space of the galley, where the …
