    Crack Nucleation in Shells with Through-the-Thickness Microstructure

    No full text
    We refer to the common low-dimensional description of shells and thin films: surfaces endowed with out-of-surface directors satisfying a nondegeneracy condition under large strain. We consider in addition through-the-thickness material microstructure described by elements of a complete and intrinsic Riemannian manifold. We look at brittle materials. Among all possible cracked and uncracked admissible configurations, the one obtained under Dirichlet-type boundary conditions realizes the minimum of a regularized Griffith's energy that includes curvature terms. For it, we prove the existence of minimizers for different constitutive functional choices and geometric structures with or without active through-the-thickness microstructure. Deformations are taken as SBV maps with a jump set included in the support of a curvature varifold with boundary. Through-the-thickness descriptors of the material microstructure are taken first as manifold-valued Sobolev maps. Then we consider pertinent SBV versions

    Managing bipolar youths in a psychiatric inpatient emergency service. Masi G, Mucci M, Pias P, Muratori F. IRCCS Stella Maris, Scientific Institute of Child Neurology and Psychiatry, Via dei Giacinti 2, 56018 Calambrone, Pisa, Italy. [email protected] Among the youths referred to our Psychiatric Inpatient Emergency Service, we focused on bipolar disorder (BD), to explore predictive elements for the outcome. Fifty-one patients (30 males, 21 females, age range 8-18 years, mean age 14.2 ± 3.1 years) received a diagnosis of BD, according to historical information, prolonged observations, and a structured clinical interview (K-SADS-PL). Twenty-seven patients (52.9%) were responders at the end of hospitalization according to CGI-I 1 or 2 and 50% decrease of both Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS). Responders received a longer hospitalization. Non responders were more severe at baseline, had higher scores at BPRS (namely positive symptoms), and were more aggressive. Environmental/social stressors and comorbidities were frequent, but they did not affect the outcome. In summary, BD in emergency settings may represent a subtype with clinical and therapeutic peculiarities, and specific challenges for mental health services

    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
