    Large-signal device simulation in time- and frequency-domain: a comparison

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to compare the most common time- and frequency-domain numerical techniques for the determination of the steady-state solution in the physics-based simulation of a semiconductor device driven by a time-periodic generator. The shooting and harmonic balance (HB) techniques are applied to the solution of the discretized drift-diffusion device model coupled to the external circuit embedding the semiconductor device, thus providing a fully nonlinear mixed mode simulation. The comparison highlights the strong and weak points of the two approaches, basically showing that the time-domain solution is more robust with respect to the initial condition, while the HB solution provides a more rapid convergence once the initial datum is close enough to the solution itsel

    Bullying Victimization, Real and Perceived Physical Fitness, and Self-Perception Profiles in Middle-School Students with Overweight or Obesity

    No full text
    : Bullying victimization has been associated with body weight and physical fitness. In order to compare the prevalence of victimization among adolescents with normal weight or overweight/obesity and to evaluate the association between real or perceived physical fitness and self-perception profiles, a sample of 128 middle-school youths (mean age: 12.2 ± 0.8 years, 61% males) was recruited. The body mass index (BMI) Z score was calculated. Physical fitness was assessed by hand grip strength (HGS), long jump (LJ), and a 3 min step test (3MST). Perceived physical fitness, self-perception profiles (social competence, athletic competence, and physical appearance), and experiences of victimization (teasing about physical appearance, verbal offenses, and exclusion from group activities) were explored using validated questionnaires. Eighty youths (62.5%) showed overweight/obesity. Compared to their counterparts, normal-weight subjects showed lower HGS and perceived muscular strength; higher LJ and 3MST performance; higher perceived overall fitness, speed and flexibility, and physical appearance. Teasing and verbal offences were more frequent among students with overweight/obesity. Being teased about physical aspects was positively related with the BMI Z score. Exclusion from groups was positively associated with LJ performance. All the types of victimization investigated were inversely related to perceived social competence. These findings suggest that self-perception may protect one from victimization, regardless of nutritional status

    During 2021 the indipendent label Musica del Sud released the sicilian adaptation of Fabrizio De André's La buona Novella, which was first published in 1970. The article therefore presents an interview with Francesco Giunta, author of the project and the translation, and makes use of the valuable conversation with Ignazio Macchiarella, in order to explore the depth of the work in its musical, literary and linguistic nuances.  Nel 2021 l'etichetta indipendente Musica del Sud ha pubblicato il riadattamento in siciliano de La buona Novella di Fabrizio De André, uscito per la prima volta nel 1970. L'articolo presenta dunque l'intervista a Francesco Giunta, l'autore del progetto e della traduzione, e si avvale del prezioso dialogo con Ignazio Macchiarella, condotto allo scopo di indagare la profondità dell'opera nelle sue sfaccettature musicali, letterarie e linguistiche.&nbsp

    A new study on the Newell-Whitehead-Segel equation with Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative

    No full text
    In this research, we propose a new numerical method that combines with the Caputo-Fabrizio Elzaki transform and the q-homotopy analysis transform method. This work aims to analyze the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional Newell-Whitehead-Segel (NWS) equation utilizing the Caputo-Fabrizio q-Elzaki homotopy analysis transform method. The Newell-Whitehead-Segel equation is a partial differential equation employed for modeling the dynamics of reaction-diffusion systems, specifically in the realm of pattern generation in biological and chemical systems. A convergence analysis of the proposed method was performed. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphs of the solutions have been drawn with the Maple software. It is seen that the resulting proposed method is more powerful and effective than the Aboodh transform homotopy perturbation method and conformable Laplace decomposition method in the results. © 2024 the Author(s), licensee AIMS Press

    Fabrizio De André e altri cantautori: Italia-Brasile in musica

    The Author wants to compare and find convergence points between Brazilian and Italian music. For Italy a more detailed look will be directed to the production of Fabrizio De André and particularly to the song Princesa, a sad story of marginalization, poverty and violence, in which a part quite considerable is written in portuguese. In De André lyrics there are often rhythms and references to latin-americans musical sounds.La Autora quiere comparar y encontrar puntos de convergencia entre la música brasileña y la italiana.

    LE NUOVE RETORICHE E LA LETTURA DEI CLASSICI ITALIANI. UNA LETTURA DEL DECAMERON CON FABRIZIO FRASNEDI

    Il contributo associa ricordi personali di Fabrizio Frasnedi a una discussione scientifica, non solo delle sue opere, ma anche dell’orizzonte culturale in cui sono state prodotte. In particolare, non distinguendo mai del tutto l’uomo dal maestro, si rivivono con il lettore due lezioni di retorica svolte a Bologna dall’autore e da Frasnedi. Il ricordo personale riprende vita nell’esperienza didattica, nelle comuni predilezioni critiche, nella biblioteca mentale che permetteva di riconoscersi pur nell’orizzonte sempre mutevole della critica letteraria.   New rhetoric and the reading of the Italian classics. A reading of the Decameron with Fabrizio Frasnedi The contribution associates personal memories of Fabrizio Frasnedi with a scientific discussion, not only of his works, but also of the cultural setting in which they were produced. In particular, never completely distinguishing the man from the teacher, two rhetoric lessons held in Bologna by the author and Frasnedi are relived with the reader. Personal memory comes back to life in the didactic experience, in common critical predilections, in the mental library that allowed to recognize each other, even in the ever-changing field of literary criticism
