Università e Terza Missione. Riflessioni su un innovativo progetto di formazione e sostegno a favore dei tutori volontari di minori stranieri non accompagnati in Piemonte.
No full textL’articolo analizza criticamente l’esperienza piemontese di formazione e sostegno a tutori volontari di Minori stranieri non accompagnati (Msna) evidenziando alcuni aspetti salienti nel quadro della Terza Missione e del Public Engagement delle università. Tramite questi diversi tipi di iniziative, infatti, gli atenei contribuiscono attivamente alla vita della società, con importanti ricadute sociali e culturali (Agenzia nazionale di valutazione del sistema universitario e della ricerca, Anvur, 2018). La Garante per l’infanzia della Regione Piemonte ha attribuito all’Università di Torino e, dal maggio 2018, anche a quella del Piemonte Orientale, la responsabilità scientifica e organizzativa della formazione degli aspiranti tutori volontari, delle attività di sostegno ai tutori nominati e dell’aggiornamento sui temi della tutela volontaria rivolto ai professionisti dei servizi sociali territoriali e degli operatori delle comunità che accolgono Msna. Il progetto che è stato realizzato può essere considerato un buon esempio di responsabilità sociale del mondo accademico che interviene concretamente nel territorio locale e sulle questioni migratorie. Può essere considerato un unicum a livello nazionale e forse un modello che potrebbe essere replicato in altri territori. L'articolo prende in esame la formazione, avvenuta o in corso, e il tipo di supporto ideato dalle università piemontesi per i tutori volontari di Msna. Inoltre, mira a indicare come, attraverso l'interdisciplinarietà, l’intreccio tra la teoria e la pratica e la collaborazione interistituzionale, gli atenei superano il ruolo di service nelle loro attività di Terza Missione. Pur con alcune criticità, si alimenta così un circolo virtuoso, che potenzia la reciprocità tra reti di accoglienza, ricerca e didattica universitaria. L' impatto positivo della esperienza universitaria piemontese nel territorio è confermata da alcuni dati: al 6 marzo 2019 erano 527 gli aspiranti tutori formati o in formazione; 318 i nominativi presenti nell’elenco presso il Tribunale per i minorenni di Torino; un centinaio i tutori nominati partecipanti ai gruppi di accompagnamento.
ABSTRACT
The article critically analyzes the experience of the Piedmont region in training and supporting voluntary guardians of Unaccompanied Minors (UM), highlighting aspects relevant to Universities’ ‘Third Mission’ and Public Engagement. Through these types of activities, universities actively contribute to society in various ways, with activities and initiatives that have important social and cultural effects (Anvur, 2018). The Piedmont Ombudsman for Children delegated to the University of Turin and, from May 2018, also to the University of Eastern Piedmont, the scientific and organizational responsibility for training and support of those wishing to be voluntary guardians as well as training of those selected to be tutors, and updating personnel in local social services and care facilities that host UM on the responsibilities of voluntary tutors. This was a good example of the social responsibility of Academia intervening concretely for the local territory and in migration issues. This seems to have been a first within Italy so it is of interest as a model, which might be replicated in other places. The article examines the training, which has taken place or is in course, and the kind of support designed by Piedmont Universities for UM voluntary guardians. Moreover, we highlight how, through interdisciplinarity, the interweaving between theoretical and practical and inter-institutional collaboration, universities overcome the role of “service” in their third mission activities. Despite some problems, a virtuous circle was created, enhancing reciprocity between institutions dealing with the inclusion of migrants, university research and education. The positive impact of the experience of Piedmont Universities in the area is confirmed by data: by March 6 2019, there were 527 potential guardians trained or in training; 318 were the names on the voluntary guardians list of the Turin Juvenile Court; around one hundred guardians are participating in support groups
Il ruolo delle Università a favore dei tutori volontari di minori stranieri non accompagnati: spunti per modellizzare un’esperienza di Terza Missione e promuovere contaminazioni virtuose tra intervento sociale, ricerca e didattica
No full textThis paper analyses the role Italian Universities can play in favour of voluntary guardians of unaccompanied children under Law n. 47/2017. Specifically, we try to standardize the experience of Piedmont Region and we emphasize that public engagement, and in general the so-called Universities' Third Mission, has positive outcomes in terms of teaching and research and staff wellbeing

Abstract
SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites (SiCf/SiC CMCs) are regarded as the new materials for the hot-section components of aircraft gas turbine engines, since they have one-third of the density of metallic superalloys, a higher temperature capability, good mechanical strength, and excellent thermal shock resistance. However, high-temperature water-vapor-rich combustion gases can induce severe surface recession phenomena in SiC/SiC leading to component failure. For this reason, it is necessary to design protective coatings, i.e., environmental barrier coatings (EBCs), able to protect the SiC/SiC surface in combustion environments. In the present work, ytterbium monosilicate (Yb2SiO5), stable when exposed to water vapor at high temperatures, and ytterbium disilicate (Yb2Si2O7), characterized by a thermal expansion coefficient closer to that of the substrate, were selected for a multilayer EBC system. EBCs were processed using the atmospheric plasma spray (APS) technique. A set of deposition parameters were tested, varying the power of the torch, and the composition and microstructure of the deposited coatings were studied in terms of porosity, crack density, and post-deposition phase retention by performing SEM, EDS, and XRD analysis. The results allow for the definition of the influence of deposition parameters on the final properties of multilayer EBC coatings

Scrivere senza anestesia. La chiarezza di Giulia Niccolai
No full textIl saggio colloca storicamente la narratrice e poetessa Giulia Niccolai nel canone del Novecento letterario italiano discutendone poetica e cifre stilistiche. L'ampia analisi proposta tocca tutte le opere dell'autrice evidenziandone i legami intertestuali, anche tra poesia e narrativa, e i progressivi sviluppi in un arco cronologico esteso, tra anni Sessanta e primi anni Duemila. Lo studio coglie anche l'importanza dei riferimenti alle arti visive, in particolare alla fotografia, che Giulia Niccolai ha praticato in prima persona negli anni della Neoavanguardia, e alla pittura americana.The essay places the narrator and poet Giulia Niccolai in the canonical twentieth century Italian literary discussing her poetics and stylistic figures. The wide analysis proposed touches all the works of the author highlighting the intertextual links, also between poetry and narrative, and the progressive developments in an extended chronological period, between the Sixties and early Twenties. The study also captures the importance of references to the visual arts, especially photography, which Giulia Niccolai has practiced in the years of the Neo-avant-garde, and to American painting

L'afrofuturismo tra Stati Uniti e Italia. Dalla memoria storica ai viaggi intergalattici per re-immaginare futuri postumani
No full textIn this article the author explores the cultural movement called Afrofuturism, tracing its origins, features, simbology, and its historical and political meanings. Starting from the (supposed) discoursive gap between African and African American people on one side and technology and science fiction on the other, this paradigm addresses themes related to the intersection of African Diaspora and African cultures with technology and science fiction, with the aim to recover the history of slavery and racism through the projections into alternative space-time contexts. In particular, the author explores the feminist afrofuturism perspective in order to examine the specific oppression and cultural production of African and African American women. In doing so, the author analyzes the development of afrofuturism in Italy, focusing on the work of the singer and beatmaker Karima 2G
BDC-Decomposition for global influence analysis
No full textIn biochemical networks, the steady-state input-output influence is the sign of the output steady-state variation due to a persistent positive input perturbation; if the sign does not depend on the value of the strictly positive system parameters, the influence is structural. As recently shown for small perturbations, when the linearized system approximation is valid, steady-state input-output influences can be structurally assessed, for biochemical networks with m unknown parameters, by means of a vertex algorithm with complexity 2m. This letter shows that the structural input-output influence of a biochemical network is a global property, which does not require any small-perturbation assumption. It also shows that, using a new algorithm, the complexity can be reduced down to 2m-n , where n is the system order, thus drastically reducing the computation time. Finally, when the uncertain parameters belong to known intervals, non-conservative bounds are given for the steady-state ratio between output and input, allowing for sensitivity analysis.Accepted Author ManuscriptTeam Tamas Keviczk
Luoghi di danza
No full textWriter, journalist, theater and film critic, Marco Ramperti is one of the few that deals with dance in the Italian press of the fascist period. For the newspaper «La Stampa», between 1926 and 1928, he edits the column Luoghi di danza (dance venues), dedicated to ballroom and modern dances. The article investigates the performative nature of Ramperti’s writing, dominated by “staging” devices of the subject matter, as well as by an intrusive presence of the body, first of all that of the author. What emerges is an unprecedented image of the dance in the Twenties, at the same time catalysing the most alienating - and Pirandellian - aspects of modernity, but also a place where genuinely experiencing themselves and the others
