Der Import exotischer Textilien nach Rom
2013
Se trata de un estudio redactado junto con una colega alemana acerca de la importación de piezas textiles y de materias primas textiles procedentes de regiones lejanas (por ejemplo, de la región del océano Índico) en la antigua Roma.
Effects of different lower-limb sensory stimulation strategies on postural regulation-a Systematic review and metaanalysis
2017
Systematic reviews of balance control have tended to only focus on the effects of single lower-limb stimulation strategies, and a current limitation is the lack of comparison between different relevant stimulation strategies. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine evidence of effects of different lower-limb sensory stimulation strategies on postural regulation and stability. Moderate- to high-pooled effect sizes (Unbiased (Hedges' g) standardized mean differences (SMD) = 0.31-0.66) were observed with the addition of noise in a Stochastic Resonance Stimulation Strategy (SRSS), in three populations (i.e., healthy young adults, older adults, and individuals with low…

Continuous Microfiber Wire Mandrel‐Less Biofabrication for Soft Tissue Engineering Applications
2022
Suture materials are the most common bioimplants in surgical and clinical practice, playing a crucial role in wound healing and tendon and ligament repair. Despite the assortment available on the market, sutures are still affected by significant disadvantages, including failure in mimicking the mechanical properties of the tissue, excessive fibrosis, and inflammation. This study introduces a mandrel-less electrodeposition apparatus to fabricate continuous microfiber wires of indefinite length. The mandrel-less biofabrication produces wires, potentially used as medical fibers, with different microfiber bundles, that imitate the hierarchical organization of native tissues, and tailored mechan…
“Iugalia aurea et argentea et bona mobilia”. Postille documentarie sui Ventimiglia di Gratteri
2019
Numerosi inventari, atti dotali, testamenti e donazioni rintracciati presso l’Archivio di Stato di Palermo permettono di ricostruire la ricchezza e la varietà del patrimonio artistico della famiglia Ventimiglia del ramo di Gratteri. Numerous inventories, doctrinal deeds, wills and donations found at the State Archives of Palermo make it possible to reconstruct the wealth and variety of the artistic heritage of the Ventimiglia family of the Gratteri branch.
Thermo-Mechanical Behaviour of Flax-Fibre Reinforced Epoxy Laminates for Industrial Applications
2015
The present work describes the experimental mechanical characterisation of a natural flax fibre reinforced epoxy polymer composite. A commercial plain woven quasi-unidirectional flax fabric with spun-twisted yarns is employed in particular, as well as unidirectional composite panels manufactured with three techniques: hand-lay-up, vacuum bagging and resin infusion. The stiffness and strength behaviours are investigated under both monotonic and low-cycle fatigue loadings. The analysed material has, in particular, shown a typical bilinear behaviour under pure traction, with a knee yield point occurring at a rather low stress value, after which the material tensile stiffness is significantly r…
The benedictine church and monastery of Santa Maria Maddalena of Corleone. Works of art and documents
2019
Il lavoro esamina le diverse fasi di costruzione della chiesa e del complesso monastico di santa Maria Maddalena di Corleone, importante centro dell’entroterra siciliano, soffermandosi in particolare all’età moderna. Le inedite fonti archivistiche indagate oltre ad individuare le maestranze impegnate nei lavori fanno emergere importanti artisti. Successivamente si passa all’individuazione delle opere d’arte sacra ancora esistenti mai indagate scientificamente e raccolte insieme per la prima volta. This work examines the different phases of construction of the church and the monastic complex of Santa Maria Maddalena of Corleone, an important centre in the Sicilian hinterland, focusing in par…
Il nobile casato dei Ventimiglia e Donna Felice Ventimiglia Barberini
2017
Nella prima parte del saggio (R.F. Margiotta, Il nobile casato dei Ventimiglia dalla Liguria alla Sicilia) si delinea la storia dei Ventimiglia, provenienti dalla Liguria, insediatisi in Sicilia sin dal Duecento, da Francesco I a Francesco IV Rodrigo, padre di Felice Ventimiglia, e ci si sofferma sulle opere più rappresentative da loro commissionate. Nella seconda parte (M.C. Di Natale, Felice Ventimiglia Barberini dal principato di Castelbuono a Roma) si prende in esame la figura di donna Felice Ventimiglia e se ne ripercorrono le vicende della vita attraverso due significativi documenti: l'inventario dotale della nobildonna, stilato nel 1693, in occasione delle nozze con il principe di pa…
De Bibracte à Augustodunum : permanences et évolutions des activités manufacturières de l’époque gauloise à la fin du Haut-Empire
2007
L’importance de l’artisanat autunois et son développement jusqu’au iiie siècle prennent racine à Bibracte qui a su exploiter les ressources naturelles de son environnement et parfaire un savoir-faire local ayant survécu à la conquête. Les recherches sur ces activités manufacturières menées conjointement à Bibracte et à Autun nous offrent ainsi une opportunité d’étudier ces problématiques sur la durée. À Bibracte, puis à Autun, les artisans du métal sont omniprésents, mais d’autres métiers, aux témoins plus discrets, ont pu aussi êtres identifiés. Dans le cadre de cet article, nous présentons succinctement les lieux de production et un bilan des différents corps de métier. Enfin, nous évoquo…
Arte Textil y tradición en la Provincia de Catamarca, Noroeste Argentino
2019
espanolLas tradiciones textiles en la Provincia de Catamarca, constituyen parte de una identidad cultural conformada a partir de elementos muy pujantes provenientes de distinto origen. Estos se traslucen tanto en estilos y tecnicas de piezas de exquisita estetica y calidad. Evidencian ademas, la historia de las industrias y manufacturas textiles que aportaron al desarrollo de esta actividad, considerada por sus habitantes como parte de su idiosincracia que -lamentablemente- con los anos tiende a desaparecer. EnglishThe textile traditions in the province of Catamarca, are part of a cultural identity formed from very vigorous elements from different origins. These are permeated both styles an…
