La circolazione delle monete cirenaiche degli ultimi Tolemei in area egea
No full textIn 96 BC Cyrenaica, up to then under Ptolemaic control, definitively came under Roman influence. Ptolemy Apion had granted freedom to the Greek city-states of Cyrenaica, while the chora had been bequeathed to the Romans. Even the currency, which the Ptolemies basically issued for local circulation, had to conform to the new economic impulses and to the opening up of the money market. Some findings from Attica, Corinthia, and above all from the Aegean islands allow the author to outline one of the paths of dissemination of the Cyrenaean coin series from this period

Effect of temperature and velocity of stretching on stress relaxation of contracting frog muscle fibres
No full text1. Active muscle resists stretch with a tension greater than it can develop at constant length, but at the end of lengthening the extra tension disappears, at first rapidly and then more slowly. 2. This unexplained trend of muscle stress relaxation was studied at two different temperatures (4 and 14 degrees C) and after ramp stretches of different velocity (0.2-2.2 fibre lengths s-1) on frog muscle fibres near slack length. 3. The velocity of the fast fall in tension increases with temperature much more than that of the slow fall. In addition, the amplitude of the fast fall in tension increases with the velocity of stretching whereas that of the slow fall decreases. 4. It is hypothesized that some of the energy absorbed by the muscle during stretching is used to raise the chemical energy level of the cross-bridges, and this energy transfer occurs during and after stretching

Questioni di scalpo: dalla creazione alla risemantizzazione di un simbolo
No full textDuring the early Hellenistic Age, the elephant headdress became a symbol of power of Alexander the Great. The gesture of wearing the elephant headdress and replacing it to the spoils of the Nemean lion represented since the end of the 4th century BC a powerful symbol of the Conqueror. Through a long-lasting process of transformation, the elephant spoils would later become emblems of specific places (e.g., Alexandria and Africa), losing their original association with Alexander. This presentation aims to explore the diachronic changes in the depiction and meaning of that symbol of power
The mechanics of sprint running
No full text1. The effect of the velocity of shortening on the power developed by the muscles in sprint running was studied by measuring the mechanical work done to accelerate the body forward from the start to about 34 km/hr.2. The work was measured at each step from the data obtained by means of a platform sensitive to the force impressed by the foot.3. Almost the totality of the positive work done during the first second from the start is found as an increase of the kinetic energy of the body. However, as the speed of the run rises, air resistance and particularly the deceleration of the body forward, taking place at each step, rapidly increase, limiting the speed of the run.4. The average power developed by the muscles during the push at each step increases with the velocity of running reaching 3-4 h.p. at the maximal speed attained.5. At low speed the contractile component of the muscles seems to be mainly responsible for the power output, whereas at high speed (25-34 km/hr) an appreciable fraction of the power appears to be sustained by the mechanical energy stored in the ;series elastic elements' during stretching the contracted muscles (negative work) and released immediately after in the positive work phase
