Fra nøster til baller : en studie av elevers møte med håndverk og materialer i et felles, utendørs veveprosjekt.
2016
Masteroppgave kunstfag- Universitetet i Agder, 2016 Denne masteroppgaven handler om det didaktiske potensialet i kunst- og håndverksundervisning i skolen. Innholdet i skolens kunst- og håndverksfag er for tiden under debatt. Det foreligger et forslag fra departementet om å skille kunst og håndverk fra hverandre. Kunstdimensjonen og håndverkstradisjonen kan på mange måter ses på som hverandres motsetninger. Å lære seg å beherske et håndverk handler om å tilegne seg bestemte måter å gjøre ting på. Det handler om å ta til seg kunnskap og ferdigheter, som er knyttet til tradisjoner og systemer. Kunstens mål er å sprenge seg ut av bestemte måter, å flytte grenser og å utfordre tradisjoner. Jeg a…

Modyfikacja polietylenu kwasem itakonowym
2003
W celu nadania właściwości hydrofilowych, które powinny ułatwić rozkład odpadów w środowisku naturalnym, przeprowadzono szczepienie PE-LD kwasem itakonowym (KI) wobec nadtlenku dikumylu (DCP). Proces realizowano dwuetapowo w wytłaczarce jednoślimakowej, stosując różne stężenia KI (3—10% mas.) i DCP (do 1,1% mas.). Metodą pirolitycznej chromatografiigazowej (Py/GC/MS) zidentyfikowano produkty termicznego rozkładu KI. Analiza FT-IR wykluczyła ich obecność w kompozycjach po szczepieniu, natomiast sugerowała szczepienie KI. Metodą ekstrakcji wodnej ustalono, że wraz ze wzrostem stężenia KI i DCP wzrasta stopień szczepienia, natomiast w całym badanym zakresie stężeń DCP w kompozycjach zawierając…
Indo-French High-resolution Thermal Infrared Space Mission for Earth Natural Resources Assessment and Monitoring -Concept and Definition of TRISHNA
2019
The Indian and French Space Agencies, ISRO and CNES, have conceptualized a space-borne Thermal Infrared Reflectance (TIR) mission, TRISHNA (Thermal infRared Imaging Satellite for High-resolution Natural Resource Assessment). The primary design drivers of TRISHNA are the monitoring of (i) terrestrial water stress and use, and of (ii) coastal and continental water. A suit of four TIR bands and six optical bands is planned. The TIR bands will be centred at 8.6 μm, 9.1 μm, 10.3 μm and 11.5 μm to provide noon-night global observations at 57m nadir resolution over land and coastal regions. The field of view (FOV) is ±34° and the orbit of 761&thin…
RPAS AND TLS TECNIQUES FOR ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY: THE CASE STUDY OF THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OF ERACLEA MINOA (ITALY)
2018
Abstract. Digital documentation and 3D modelling of archaeological sites are important for understanding, definition and recognition of the values of the sites and of the archaeological finds. The most part of archaeological sites are outdoor location, but a cover to preserve the ruins protects often parts of the sites. The possibility to acquire data with different techniques and merge them by using a single reference system allows creating multi-parties models in which 3D representations of the individual objects can be inserted. The paper presents the results of a recent study carried out by Geomatics Laboratory of University of Palermo for the digital documentation and 3D modelling of E…
Role of persistent CMV infection in configuring T cell immunity in the elderly
2007
Abstract Ageing is associated with declines in many physiological parameters, including multiple immune system functions. The rate of acceleration of the frequency of death due to cardiovascular disease or cancer seems to increase with age from middle age up to around 80 years, plateauing thereafter. Mortality due to infectious disease, however, does not plateau, but continues to accelerate indefinitely. The elderly commonly possess oligoclonal expansions of T cells, especially of CD8 cells, which, surprisingly, are often associated with cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity. This in turn is associated with many of the same phenotypic and functional alterations to T cell immunity that have b…
Protection of Mice from Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease Requires CD28 Co-stimulation on Donor CD4+ Foxp3+ Regulatory T Cells
2017
Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell plus T cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). In this study, we investigated the requirement for CD28 co-stimulation of donor CD4\(^{+}\) conventional (CD4\(^{+}\)CD25\(^{-}\)Foxp3\(^{-}\), Tconv) and regulatory (CD4\(^{+}\)CD25\(^{+}\)Foxp3\(^{+}\), Treg) T cells in aGvHD using tamoxifen-inducible CD28 knockout (iCD28KO) or wild-type (wt) littermates as donors of CD4\(^{+}\) Tconv and Treg. In the highly inflammatory C57BL/6 into BALB/c allo-HSCT transplantation model, CD28 depletion on donor CD4\(^{+}\) Tconv reduced clinical signs of aGvHD, but did not significantly pro…

RESUMEN. El texto repasa las iniciativas y desarrollo de políticas que desde el poder legislativo en Argentina y Nicaragua han fraguado en la reciente elaboración de colecciones normativas de sus respectivos sistemas jurídicos. Tales recopilaciones son el Digesto Jurídico Argentino y Digesto Jurídico Nicaragüense y han respondido asimismo a principios de depuración, inventario, armonización, consolidación normativa y unificación de la legislación vigente. El autor se interesa por los logros de su programa de desarrollo técnico legislativa, así como por el alcance de tales planteamientos en términos jurídico-político de contribución a la seguridad jurídica y el fortalecimiento del Estado de…
Endovascular treatment of spontaneous isolated abdominal aortic dissection
2016
Isolated abdominal aortic dissection is a rare clinical disease representing only 1.3% of all dissections. There are a few case series reported in the literature. The causes of this pathology can be spontaneous, iatrogenic, or traumatic. Most patients are asymptomatic and symptoms are usually abdominal or back pain, while claudication and lower limb ischemia are rare. Surgical and endovascular treatment are two valid options with acceptable results. We herein describe nine cases of symptomatic spontaneous isolated abdominal aortic dissection, out of which four successfully were treated with an endovascular approach between July 2003 and July 2013. All patients were men, smokers, symptomati…
Development of Phosphatized Calcium Carbonate Biominerals as Bioactive Bone Graft Substitute Materials, Part I: Incorporation of Magnesium and Stront…
2018
Synthetic materials based on calcium phosphate (CaP) are frequently used as bone graft substitutes when natural bone grafts are not available or not suitable. Chemical similarity to bone guarantees the biocompatibility of synthetic CaP materials, whereas macroporosity enables their integration into the natural bone tissue. To restore optimum mechanical performance after the grafting procedure, gradual resorption of CaP implants and simultaneous replacement by natural bone is desirable. Mg and Sr ions released from implants support osteointegration by stimulating bone formation. Furthermore, Sr ions counteract osteoporotic bone loss and reduce the probability of related fractures. The presen…
