Cross-Cultural Meta-Analyses
No full textIn the enormous collection of cross-cultural data that have been published during the last few decades it is difficult to perceive patterns. There is a clear need for systematizing the vast amount of cross-cultural studies and for developing models that explain cross-cultural differences in psychology. Two methods of cross-cultural meta-analysis can be distinguished. First, the instrument-based method of comparing data for one instrument across countries is suitable for instruments which have been administered in many countries. Second, a domain-based meta-analysis used a thematic domain from which culture-comparative studies are sampled instead of one specific instrument or method
La durata della somministrazione a termine
No full textIl saggio esamina le innovazioni introdotte nella somministrazione a tempo determinato dal d.l. n. 34/2014, conv. l. 78/2014.
Si rileva come la nuova legge, accomuna contratto di lavoro a termine e contratto di somministrazione a tempo determinato e si evidenziano le incertezze della nuova normativa determinate dalla commistione tra disciplina di somministrazione a termine e disciplina di contratto a termine.The essay examines the innovations introduced in the fixed term labour-only subcontracting by d.l. n. 34/2014, conv. l. 78/2014.
The Author remarks that the Act, unites fixed term employment contract and fixed term subcontracting.
The uncertainties of the new regulation determined by the blending of the regulation of fixed term employment contract and fixed term subcontracting are also highlighted
A large-scale biomass bulk terminal
No full textThis research explores the possibility of a large-scale bulk terminal in West Europe dedicated to handle solid and liquid biomass materials. Various issues regarding the conceptual design of such a terminal have been investigated and demonstrated in this research: the potential biomass materials that will be the major international trade flows in the future, the characteristics of these potential biomass materials, the interaction between the material properties and terminal equipment, the perspective from terminal logistic process, and the terminal configuration. To this day no such a terminal exists yet. Therefore, the results from this research are a first step that will help the future development of such a terminal.Marine and Transport TechnologyMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin
La raffigurazione dell'Arcangelo Michele nella monetazione medievale
No full textQuesto articolo nasce dall’unione delle relazioni tenute dall’autore nel corso dei convegni “Langobardorum Nummorum Doctrina” (2018) e “In Sanctorum Nummis Effigies” (2019). Dopo un’attenta ricerca viene mostrato il percorso dell’iconografia micaelica nella monetazione medievale e il suo cammino attraverso l’Europa. L’effige del santo raffigurata in primis dai Gepidi e poi da Longobardi e Bizantini, si diffonderà in tutta l’Europa medievale, dal Regno di Sicilia fino alla Danimarca. Il lavoro, frutto non solo di una ricerca numismatica, ma anche storica e artistica, vuole essere un punto di partenza di uno studio più complesso che l’autore sta compiendo sulla raffigurazione del santo nelle monete medievali.This article was born from the union of the reports given by the author during the conferences “Langobardorum Nummorum Doctrina” (2018) and “In Sanctorum Nummis Effigies” (2019). After careful research, the path of Michaelic iconography in medieval coinage and its journey through Europe is demonstrated. The effigy of the saint depicted primarily by the Gepids, and then by the Lombards and the Byzantines, spread throughout medieval Europe, from the Kingdom of Sicily to Denmark. This work, the result not only of numismatic but also of historical and artistic research, is intended to be a starting point for a more complex study that the author is carrying out on the depiction of the saint in medieval coins
Introduction
No full text© The Author(s) 2019. This chapter introduces the conceptual underpinning and aims of the book, and outlines its content. It discusses how, although the doctorate represents the most advanced form of adult education and qualification, and considerable effort, research and training has been expended on the process of completing a doctorate, there has been far less interest or focus on the lived experience of doing one. It describes how, and why, this book focuses on the human dimension that underpins the highest level of formal learning achievable. This chapter also outlines the volume’s unique organisation around the themes and concerns that students themselves have identified as centrally important to successfully completing their research degrees. The introduction describes how, from assessing the self to working with others, from building resilience to developing networks, and considering how ethical conduct permeates a researcher’s practice, this book takes readers-both students and supervisors-on a journey towards successful doctoral learning. It also describes how, while each section is framed by ideas and concepts suggested by the editors, who are experienced doctoral supervisors, the core content of the book is purposely student-driven and authored, in order to provide an authentic account of the doctoral experience

On an elastic dissipation model for a cantilevered beam
No full textIn this paper we will study an elastic dissipation model for a cantilevered beam. This problem for a cantilevered beam has been formulated by D.L. Russell as an open problem in [1, 2]. To determine the relationship between the damping rates and the frequencies we will use a recently developed, adapted form of the method of separation of variables. It will be shown that the dissipation model as proposed by D.L. Russell for the cantilevered beam will not always generate damping. Moreover, it will be shown that some solutions can become unbounded.Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
