Environment for Planning Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Operations
No full textPlanning and executing missions in terms of trajectory generation are challenging problems in the operational phase of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) lifecycle. The growing adoption of UAVs in several civil applications requires the definition of precise procedures and tools to safely manage UAV missions that may involve flight over populated areas. The paper aims at providing a contribution toward the definition of a reliable environment, called FLIP (flight planner) for route planning and risk evaluation in the framework of mini- and micro-UAV missions over populated areas. The environment represents a decision support system (DSS) for UAV operators and other decision makers, like airports authorities and aviation agencies. A new ICT tool integrating an innovative procedure for evaluating the risk related to the use of UAV over populated areas is proposed
TAKE OFF – Test and Knowledge‐based Environment for Operations, Flight and Facility
No full textProgetto TAKE OFF (2016-2017) – Test and Knowledge‐based Environment for Operations, Flight and Facility - Ricerca e sviluppo di un sistema innovativo per l’acquisizione, elaborazione e presentazione dati/risultati delle prove di volo su velivoli GA e UAV basato su tecniche di Data Fusion in ambiente Cloud. Partners: Aeroporti di Puglia Capofila, Sitael Spa, Altran Italia Spa, Enginsoft Spa, Eka Srl, CNR ISSIA, Università del Salento ‐ DII. Obiettivo del presente progetto di ricerca è quello di studiare, progettare e realizzare un infrastruttura tecnologica in grado di sostenere le attività di sperimentazione e di test che si svolgeranno presso il Grottaglie Airport Testbed. Questa infrastruttura tecnologica dovrà consentire l’acquisizione, l’elaborazione e la visualizzazione di dati e i risultati delle prove di volo su velivoli GA e UAV avendo come input sorgenti di dati eterogenei che possono riguardare sia dati industriali quali flight procedures, knowledge content o dati di pianificazione dei test che dati di test provenienti da sistemi di sensoristica sia in tempo reale che in modalità asincrona attraverso cui si alimenteranno il sistema di alert e quello di analisi dati della missione

GIULIO TARRA TRADUTTORE DAL FRANCESE
Full text linkCon Il Libro pel bambino, Don Giulio Tarra risultò il vincitore di due concorsi indetti dal Congresso Pedagogico Italiano nel 1861: quello per un libro di lettura destinato ai bambini sordomuti e l’altro per un libro destinato alle scuole rurali. Fra le opere del Tarra pubblicate da Paolo Carrara è menzionato il volumetto “Lezioni in famiglia, versione da M. Carraud”. Questo contributo intende offrire alcuni elementi d’informazione su Zulma Carraud, autrice delle Historiettes véritables pour les enfants de quatre à huit ans, titolo originale della raccolta di racconti tradotta da Don Giulio. Il libro era uscito a Parigi nel 1864 per i tipi di Hachette. In precedenza lo stesso editore aveva accolto le prime opere di Zulma nelle collane destinate alla scuola primaria. A pochi anni di distanza l’uno dall’altra, la Carraud nella Francia del II Impero e il Tarra nell’Italia postunitaria, entrambi hanno contribuito con i loro “libri di lettura” allo sviluppo dell’editoria per la scuola e per l’infanzia.
Giulio Tarra translator from French
With the volume entitled Il Libro pel bambino, Don Giulio Tarra won two literary competitions held in 1861 by the Congresso Pedagogico Italiano: the first was dedicated to books for deaf-mute chidren, the second to books for rural schools. Among Tarra’s works published by Paolo Carrara we find “Lezioni in famiglia, versione da M. Carraud”. This article provides some information about Zulma Carraud, the author of the collection of novels entitled: Historiettes véritables pour les enfants de quatre à huit ans published by Hachette in 1864 and translated into Italian by Don Giulio. Previously the same publisher had collected Zulma’s first works in a series to be used in primary schools. Carraud, during the Second Empire period in France, and Tarra, in post-Unity Italy, both contributed to the development of the publishing industry for schools and children with their educational and entertaining books
Stress ossidativo nei pazienti con diagnosi di sindrome delle apnee ostruttive notturne
Full text linkObstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is a disorder that leads to metabolic abnormalities and increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to identify early laboratory markers of cardiovascular disease through analysis of oxidative stress in normal subjects and patients with OSAS. A prospective study was designed to compare outcomes of oxidative stress laboratory tests in 20 adult patients with OSAS and a control group of 20 normal subjects. Laboratory techniques for detecting and quantifying free radical damage must be targeted to assess the pro-oxidant component and the antioxidant in order to obtain an overall picture of oxidative balance. No statistical differences in age, sex distribution, or BMI were found between the two groups (p>0.05). There were significant differences in the apnoea/hypopnoea index (AHI) between OSAS patients and the control group (p<0.05). Statistically significant differences in isoprostane, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and non-protein bound iron (NPBI) levels were found between the study and control groups. No significant difference in the levels of thiol biomarkers was found between the two groups. The main finding of the present study was increased production of oxidative stress biomarkers in OSAS patients. The major difference between thiols and other oxidative stress biomarkers is that thiols are antioxidants, while the others are expressions of oxidative damage. The findings of the present study indicate that biomarkers of oxidative stress in OSAS may be used as a marker of upper airway obstructive episodes due to mechanical trauma, as well as a marker of hypoxaemia causing local oropharyngeal inflammation
