The dissemination of the culture of safety: Innovative experiences from important infrastructures and construction sites
The Culture of Safety is the enduring value and prioritization of worker and public safety by each member of each group and in every level of an organization (Von Thaden and Gibbons, 2008). First, the Authors provide some considerations on the roles, tasks and responsibilities of the subjects involved, and reiterate the importance of an approach involving a strong motivation for the figures with real decision-making power. Taken into account what emerged in the International Meeting "the basic role of the clients of great infrastructural operations in the promotion of the Culture of Safety: management and communication strategies, contractual aspects, case histories and best practices", SiTI, Turin, Politecnico, May 12th 2017, the Authors discuss - coherent to the original structured classification of the various aspects of the Culture of Safety into specifically designed sub-categories- the critical Occupational and Community S&H issues, and the responses of the clients
Impact of finite-resolution DAC and ADC on probabilistically-shaped QAM constellations
We analyze the impact of finite resolution of DAC and ADC on the performance of coherent-detection optical communication systems using probabilistically-shaped 64-QAM constellations. We show that no substantial additional penalty is incurred with respect to uniformly distributed constellations with the same net data rate

A new human powered press for producing straw bales for load bearing constructions (Anpilpay 2.0)
This paper provides the design method to realize a human-powered press for continuous production of high-density straw bales, necessary for the realization of load bearing housing moules. Particular attention is directed to the simplicity of the press mechanical structure in order to make possible its construction in developing countries. The design process is fully described, then the use of a prototype press for the realization, with high-density rice straw bales, of a load bearing housing module is presented and the results are commented
