Seismic performance of concrete structures exposed to corrosion: Case studies of low-rise precast buildings
The structural members of precast one-storey or low-rise multi-storey concrete frames for industrial or commercial buildings are often directly exposed to the environment without any protection. The aim of this paper is to investigate the seismic performance of this type of structure considering the material degradation induced by the diffusive attack of aggressive agents, like sulphate and chloride, that may lead to deterioration of concrete and corrosion of reinforcement. The time-variant structural performance of the critical cross-sections of the columns, where plastic hinges are expected to occur during a seismic event, is investigated in terms of bending moment versus curvature relationships. Push-over and push-pull cyclic analyses are then carried out over the structural lifetime to assess the global structural performance in terms of base shear forces and displacement ductility. In this way, even though the lifetime evolution of the dynamic behaviour under ground motion is not captured, it can be shown how the hierarchy of member strengths, and hence the energy-dissipating failure mode claimed for a capacity design of the structure, can be affected by the time-evolution of damage. The proposed procedure is applied to investigate the lifetime seismic performance of one-storey and three-storey frame structures. The results show a significant reduction of both base shear strength and displacement ductility over the structural lifetime and highlight the importance of a lifetime approach to seismic assessment and design of concrete structures

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Bancos de crédito cooperativo y crecimiento territorial: génesis de un modelo de desarrollo local y análisis del caso del Banco de Crédito Cooperativo «G. Toniolo» de San Cataldo
La crisis económica ha puesto en entredicho no solo los sistemas bancarios, sino también el modelo de desarrollo. Los Bancos de Crédito Cooperativo han vuelto a ocupar un papel protagonista, demostrando con su amplio bagaje que existe otra forma de prestar servicios financieros. En Italia, los Bancos de Crédito Cooperativo son los actores principales del sistema económico bancario. Uno de esos bancos es el «G. Toniolo», que se ha convertido a lo largo de los años en todo un referente.

Giovani e vita comune: con gli altri verso se stessi
Il contributo restituisce le prime emergenze di una ricerca quali-quantitativa sulle forme emergenti di vita comune giovanile in ambito ecclesiale. Il contesto territoriale di riferimento dell'indagine è quello della Lombardia; il periodo della rilevazione è il 2020. La prima parte del saggio riflette sulla rilevanza che la vita comune giovanile assume non solo in ottica pastorale ma più ampiamente sociale, quindi sociologica. In particolar modo, riconducendo lo studio della vita comune alle dimensioni più rilevanti della condizione giovanile così come analizzata nella "tradizione" del Rapporto Giovani", gli autori si soffermano sulla rilevanza delle esperienze di vita comune giovanile per lo studio
delle relazioni comunitarie, della progettualità, della fede e della religiosità dei giovani. Nella seconda parte del contributo, l'attenzione si sposta in particolare sull'analisi delle concrete esperienze di vita comune compiute dai giovani e raccolte dai ricercatori mediante le tecniche qualitative dell'intervista semistrutturata e del focus groupThis essay is dedicated to the emergent social phenomenon of religious inspired common life experiences among young people. More in details it presents the first relevant results from a quali-quantitative search realized during 2020 in Lombardy Region. In the first, more theoretical part, the essay puts into relation common life experiences with some relevant dimensions concerning youth condition such as community ties, life planning, spirituality. In the second part, the paper delves into the analysis of young people concrete experiences with common life, gathered by the researchers through semi-structured interviews and focus groups
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
