Adattamento, studio e tempo libero dello studente universitario a Lecce
Il capitolo, frutto di una survey, evidenzia come Lecce prenda dagli studenti universitari molto di più di quanto non sia disposta a dare. Inoltre, si rileva il modo in cui gli studenti vivono l'Ateneo e lo giudicano, la città e i suoi spazi
Explorando la armonía en los aceites de oliva virgen extra y maridajes con vegetales
Despite the growing interest in the sensory and healthy properties of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), the topic of oil-food pairing is practically unexplored. This study systematically explores sensory effects on the flavor and harmony obtained by combining two ingredients (EVOOs and vegetables) and aims to provide practical indications for harmonic oil-vegetable combinations. The approach considered an optimal pairing of five EVOOs combined with five typical raw Italian vegetables characterized by different degrees of bitterness (Artichoke, Late Treviso radicchio, Chioggia radicchio, rocket, Early Treviso radicchio). An Index of Disharmony was computed for each pairing, using intensity ratings given by a trained panel that described EVOOs, vegetables and pairings. The results suggested a flavor congruency principle to enhance the oil-pairing harmony. EVOOs with intense green and bitter flavor maximise harmony when combined with very bitter or very pungent vegetables. EVOOs with moderate green flavor and bitterness seemed best paired with vegetables with low/intermediate bitterness.A pesar del creciente interés por las propiedades sensoriales y saludables del aceite de oliva virgen extra (AOVE), el tema de la combinación de aceite y alimentos está casi inexplorado. Este estudio explora sistemáticamente los efectos sensoriales sobre el sabor y la armonía que se obtienen al combinar dos ingredientes (AOVE y vegetales) y tiene como objetivo proporcionar indicaciones prácticas para las combinaciones de aceites armónicos y vegetales. El enfoque consideró el emparejamiento óptimo de cinco EVOO combinados con cinco vegetales crudos italianos típicos caracterizados por diferentes grados de amargor (alcachofa, Late Treviso radicchio, Chioggia radicchio, Rúcula, Early Treviso radicchio). Se calculó un índice de desarmonía para cada emparejamiento, utilizando las calificaciones de intensidades dadas por un panel capacitado que describía los AOVE, las verduras y los emparejamientos. Los resultados sugirieron un principio de congruencia del sabor para mejorar la armonía de emparejamiento de aceites. Los AOVE con intenso sabor verde y amargo maximizan la armonía cuando se combinan con vegetales muy amargos o muy picantes. Los AOVE que tienen un sabor verde y un amargor moderados parecían combinarse mejor con los vegetales con un amargor bajo / intermedio
Design-Driven Material Innovation Methodology
This chapter of the Book Ideas and the Matter, edited by Marinella Ferrara and Giulio Ceppi, present the Design-driven Material Innovation Methodology in the framework of the evolution of the Material Design Culture, and the most up-dated changing of the material design approach. Design-driven Material Innovation Methodology is the method developed and assessed by MADEC, the Material Design Culture Research Center by Politecnico di Milano
Application of the AFT technique for low-cost and accurate measurements
This paper deals with an evaluation of the use of the arithmetic Fourier transform (AFT) in fast and accurate measurement of the analyzed signal amplitude. The approach in the frequency domain is preferable to that in the time domain, owing to its ability to give information about a number of parameters in addition to the r.m.s. values of the voltage and current, such as the fundamental components, fundamental phase angles and harmonics. The disadvantage of using the usual FFT techniques, relevant to the large amount of computation involved (especially when the length of the analyzed sequencies is not a power of two), is reduced when the proposed AFT technique is used in the computation process. Then, using the proposed procedure, one can obtain a very fast, relatively low-cost, and accurate measurement with respect to that of the FFT. Several numerical results proved these interesting conclusions

Anti-HEV seroprevalence in the area of Lecce,Sieroprevalenza anti-HEV in provincia di Lecce
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is the causative agent of an enterically transmitted viral hepatitis associated with inadequate hygienic conditions. Hepatitis E is endemic in developing countries where it occurs both in sporadic and epidemic form. Outbreaks have been reported in different areas of the world. The aim of the present work was to assess the seroprevalence of HEV infection in the general population and in different risk groups in the area of Lecce. The presence of anti-HEV antibodies was ascertained by qualitative ELISA (Abbott HEV EIA) and Western Blot (Recomblot HEV IgG/IgM, Mikrogen). The prevalence of anti-HEV in the general population was 2.9% while in intravenous drug users, hemodialized patients and immigrants the seroprevalence rates were 0.7%, 4.3% and 15.3% respectively. Our data show a circulation of HEV at low level in the area of Lecce which is endemic for hepatitis A. Higher seroprevalence rates were found in hemodialized patients and remarkably in immigrants coming from endemic areas like Turkey
