    Il nuovo danno esistenziale - Parte seconda

    No full text
    The book represents one of the most complete studies on the category of danno esistenziale, as it was considered after the intervention of the Sezioni Unite della Cassazione in 2008. The peculiarity of the book consists in a detailed final report wich could be found in a table (whose author is F. Bilotta) which analyzes about 700 sentences highlighting the settlement procedures of the different components of non-pecuniary damage and the manner in which the danno esistenziale has been demostrated during the trial

    Responsabilità

    Il diritto della responsabilità civile ha rappresentato un campo di elezione per la diffusione del concetto di dignità in ambito giuridico. Secondo l’autore, nonostante il frequente uso di questo termine, sfugge ai più la necessità di enuclearne il significato attingendo al sapere filosofico, affinché possa essere un utile strumento trasformativo della società. Dignity is a recurring concept in the jurisprudence on torts. Despite the frequent use of this term, few private law theorists have been committed to understanding its meaning through philosophical knowledge. According to the author, only by understanding the meaning of word dignity, its legal use can help to transform society

    Editor—Thanks for the chance to respond to the letter by Badenes and Bilotta. We appreciate their interest in our article1 and fully agree that tight management of the arterial partial pres sure of carbon dioxide ðPaCO2 Þ is crucial for avoiding increases in intracerebral pressure (ICP) resulting from hypercapnic vasodila tory effects. However, in our study increases in ICP have occurred not only in response to PaCO2 increases, but also independently, and at times these were fairly delayed after switching to the anaesthetic conserving device (ACD).1 Prompt increases in ICP are usually not expected after a more gradual increase in PaCO2 , but rather after sudden increases of PaCO2 , which might indeed occur directly after switching to the ACD in the absence of com pensatory mechanism

    Lessico della Dignità

    Chi voglia ragionare attorno al concetto di dignità si trova immediatamente a fare i conti con una pluralità di categorizzazioni. In alcune letture la dignità è considerata un principio, in altre un valore, in altre ancora un diritto soggettivo. Per i non giuristi tutto ciò è poco significativo, però va subito chiarito che ogni opzione tra quelle ricordate ha un risvolto concreto nella quotidianità. L’approccio realistico allo studio del diritto, adottato in questa ricerca interdisciplinare, implica la necessità di farsi carico dell’impatto sociale effettivo delle proprie scelte teoriche. La pubblicazione, attraverso la forma del lemmario, mette in mostra le parole che danno senso e pienezza al concetto di dignità, dimostrando che le questioni oggetto di studio non sono appannaggio dei soli cultori del diritto. Optando per un uso della parola non specialistico, il Lessico si fa linguaggio comune e strumento di reciproca comprensione e vicinanza, invece che raffinato mezzo di distanziamento e controllo delle dinamiche sociali. Il Lessico ricorda a tutti che, se il diritto è il meccanismo attraverso il quale organizziamo la società, la dignità è il motore di tale congegno

    Fire resistance evaluation through fragility curves

    No full text
    Since the FSE has been introduced, designers have been equipped with tools that allow optimising the performance of structures in fire. Vulnerability assessment, evaluated by stochastic approach has become of increasing interest in the international research, also driven by insurance company needs. The paper shows the application of probabilistic tools for assessing mechanical behaviour at elevated temperature of common structural typologies (i.e. steel, concrete and composite beams with or without axial restraints) at different load levels. The fluid dynamic aspects are included in the statistical analysis, with natural fires selected in order to analyse the influence of the specific fire load and the ventilation condition of the compartment by means of a two-zone model. Results are summarized in fragility curves giving time collapse or maximum displacement limit state attainment. In future, fragility curves could be built for complex structures to provide a tool for insurance companies that allows rapid assessment of structural vulnerability to fire

    Performance of steel-concrete composite bridges in fire

    In assessing the damage on bridges caused by a fire, we should not only consider the possibility of structural collapse, which often is avoided thanks to the beneficial effect of the ventilation that cools the hot fumes propagating during fire. Indeed checks on the maximum deflection that the structure can undergo during fire can be more significant for the functionality after fire of electrical, gas and water systems often included in the bridge structures connecting different urban and extra urban areas. Therefore, fluid dynamic and thermomechanical numerical analyses were performed to simulate the behavior of typical bridges of the national highway during a fire, to identify possible fire risk mitigation for avoiding the collapse of the structures and the damage of the facilities
