Studio delle interazioni ruota-rotaia ai fini della sicurezza dell’esercizio e della manutenzione sviluppo di un sistema di misura sperimentale per il monitoraggio dei carichi trasversali
Full text linkIl presente lavoro, esaminando la situazione del settore ferroviario europeo in relazione alla sicurezza della circolazione ed alla manutenzione dei veicoli, affronta lo studio della misura delle forze di contatto, su base teorica e sperimentale, ai fini dello sviluppo di un sistema di misura sperimentale per il monitoraggio dei carichi trasversali (Y), lato infrastruttura. Attraverso una prima convenzione di ricerca con Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI), è stato effettuato uno studio di fattibilità preliminare, confrontando tra loro due metodologie di misura differenti; successivamente la ricerca è proseguita a livello accademico approfondendo le potenzialità applicative di uno dei due metodi precedentemente analizzati. Infine, attraverso una seconda convenzione di ricerca, sempre con Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI), si è sviluppato il sistema di misura a livello prototipale conducendo ulteriori prove sperimentali di laboratorio ed installando l’apparato direttamente in linea durante il normale esercizio
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
The Trajan Markets and their Great Hall – The Conservation Problems and the Structural Intervention for the Improvement of the Seismic Safety
No full textThis paper focuses on the Great Hall of Trajan’s Markets in Rome and describes structural analyses and interventions designed and installed to improve structural stability. Trajan’s Markets were subjected to each of the last four big earthquakes that hit Rome, the last occurring in 1703, with a return period of around three-four centuries. The present geometrical and structural configuration of the Markets is different and weaker with respect to the original one, and also weaker with respect to their configuration in 1703. Numerical FEM analyses have been applied, lightening and emphasising the seismic vulnerability of the structure. In particular, the numerical analyses allowed the identification of the most vulnerable parts of the supporting structures as well as the assessment of an adequate retrofitting intervention criterion, based on the use of reversible techniques
