Dataset: On compact packings of the plane with circles of three radii
No full textThis dataset is related to the paper "On compact packings of the plane with circles of three radii".
For each of the 248395 elements of the set K defined in Definition 5.1, the dataset contains a file (in JSON format). Each file contains all data required to apply Proposition 6.1, which allows for establishing the bound of 13617 of the number of pairs (r,s) satisfying 0<s<r<1 and which admits a compact packing of circles of radii r,s and 1

The Salience of Hegemonic Masculinity
No full textThis article argues that the concept of “hegemonic masculinity” remains highly salient to critical masculinities studies. The author outlines Raewyn Connell\u27s initial formulation of the concept, how that initial model of hegemonic masculinity has been historically misinterpreted, the reformulation of the concept by Connell and Messerschmidt, and the recent scholarly amplification of the concept. The author concludes that Connell’s original emphasis on the legitimation of unequal gender relations remains essential to both the concept and to the field of critical masculinities studies

Modellare smorfie. Rilievo e rappresentazione aptica di due teste scultoree di Franz Xaver Messerschmidt / Modeling grimaces. Survey and haptic representation of two sculptural heads by Franz Xaver Messerschmidt
No full textLa ricerca ha avuto per finalità il rilievo e la riproduzione fisica di due busti di Franz Xaver Messerschmidt, realizzati alla fine del ‘700, presenti presso la Fondazione Palazzo Coronini Cronberg di Gorizia, riproducenti espressioni facciali insolite. Obiettivo, pertanto, è stato acquisire la geometria tridimensionale degli oggetti con un livello di dettaglio tale da garantire la registrazione anche delle lievi alterazioni cutanee, tale da poter essere riprodotta fisicamente con sistemi di stampa 3D ad alta definizione. L’esito, infatti, avrebbe dovuto permettere la comprensione tattile delle particolari sculture, con un accesso inclusivo rivolto soprattutto a persone con ridotta capacità visiva. / The aim of the research was the survey and the physical reproduction of two busts by Franz Xaver Messerschmidt, made at the end of the 18th Century, now at the Palazzo Coronini Cronberg Foundation in Gorizia, reproducing unusual facial expressions. The goal, therefore, was to acquire the three-dimensional geometry of the objects with a level of detail to ensure the recording of slight skin alterations, to be reproduced physically in high definition with 3D printing systems. The outcome, in fact, should have allowed the tactile understanding of these particular sculptures, with inclusive access mainly to people having reduced visual abilities
BIOPHYSICAL CONTROLS OF MARSH SOIL SHEAR STRENGTH ALONG AN ESTUARINE SALINITY GRADIENT

C., & Kirwan, M. L. Biophysical controls of marsh soil shear strength along an estuarine salinity gradient. Earth Surface Dynamics, 9(3),(2021): 413-421, https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-9-413-2021.Sea-level rise, saltwater intrusion, and wave erosion threaten coastal marshes, but the influence of salinity on marsh erodibility remains poorly understood. We measured the shear strength of marsh soils along a salinity and biodiversity gradient in the York River estuary in Virginia to assess the direct and indirect impacts of salinity on potential marsh erodibility. We found that soil shear strength was higher in monospecific salt marshes (5–36 kPa) than in biodiverse freshwater marshes (4–8 kPa), likely driven by differences in belowground biomass. However, we also found that shear strength at the marsh edge was controlled by sediment characteristics, rather than vegetation or salinity, suggesting that inherent relationships may be obscured in more dynamic environments. Our results indicate that York River freshwater marsh soils are weaker than salt marsh soils, and suggest that salinization of these freshwater marshes may lead to simultaneous losses in biodiversity and erodibility.This research has been supported by the US National Science Foundation (grant nos. 1654374, 1426981, 1529245, and 1832221)
