    A necessary condition for extremality of solutions to autonomous obstacle problems with general growth

    Full text link
    Let us consider the autonomous obstacle problemmin(v) integral(Omega) F(Dv(x)) dxon a specific class of admissible functions, where we suppose the Lagrangian satisfies proper hypotheses of convexity and superlinearity at infinity. Our aim is to find a necessary condition for the extremality of the solution, which exists and it is unique, thanks to a primal-dual formulation of the problem. The proof is based on classical arguments of Convex Analysis and on Calculus of Variations' techniques. (c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved

He was also known within the Seventh-day Adventist church for his opposition to rock and contemporary Christian music, jewelry, the celebration of Christmas and Easter, certain dress standards, and alcohol.

    Distretto X: Sguardi Plurali sui Musei: Riflessioni sull'identità di genere

    No full text
    Distretto X nasce come una sfida, è stato un salto nel vuoto, un’azione partita con l’obiettivo di coinvolgere la comunità LGBTQ+ e la realtà del territorio di Porta Venezia nella creazione di nuovi significati e di nuove letture sul tema dell’identità di genere e dell’orientamento sessuale grazie ad azioni civicamente coscienti. “Cosa” volevamo fare era molto chiaro ma “come” si sarebbe realizzato era una variabile determinante per la costruzione del progetto. Le strade da percorrere erano due: la prima era rappresentata da un’azione decisa a priori, presentata e poi condivisa con le comunità coinvolte, la seconda era cercare di capire il territorio e gli attori che possedevano una storia nella riflessione sull’identità di genere, le realtà associative del mondo LGBTQ+, i centri di ricerca che si occupavano di questi temi e i professionisti coinvolti nella costruzione di un dibattito contemporaneo. Creare dei momenti di scambio e incontro con tutti gli attori senza una soluzione prestabilita ma solo scegliendo l’ascolto e lo scambio e uno sguardo comune di co-progettazione di un’a- zione. La seconda via, quella che abbiamo scelto, sicuramente si presen- tava come la più complessa da gestire, quella che vedeva il suo percorso ricco di imprevisti e di incognite, quella che si poggiava su un terreno farraginoso, ma quella che poneva al centro della riflessione un processo e non un risultato

The objective of this work is to report an assessment of the change in vehicle flows and in air quality of a specific study area in the north of Italy, comparing the periods February–May 2020 and February–May 2019. Circulating vehicles have been measured at nine characteristic points of the local road network of the city of Reggio Emilia (Italy), while atmospheric pollutant concentrations have been analysed using data extracted from the regional air quality monitoring network. The results highlight a rapid decline in the number of vehicles circulating in 2020 (with values of up to −82%). This has contributed to a reduction in air concentrations of pollutants, in particular for NO2 and CO (over 30% and over 22%, respectively). On the other hand, O3 has increased (by about +13%), but this is expected. Finally, the particulate matter grew (about 30%), with a behaviour similar to the whole regional territory. The empirical findings of this study provide some indications and useful information to assist in understanding the effects of traffic blocking in urban areas on air quality

    Congetturare e argomentare tra esempi e controesempi

    In questo articolo, saranno analizzati i processi di produzione di esempi e le implicazioni didattiche relative all'apprendimento di teoremi e definizioni. Ne emerge un sistema articolato e complesso, ma anche ricco di potenzialità didattiche. Verranno illustrate sia le problematiche di carattere cognitivo e didattico e che coinvolgono soggetti che apprendono, sia quegli aspetti che sono significativi del pensiero matematico e che sono osservabili nel comportamento degli esperti: l’analisi degli esperti assumerà pertanto una funzione metodologica importante nella ricerca qui presentata, offrendo contributi nel definire obiettivi didattici e opportune attività volte a raggiungerli. L’articolo è diviso in due parti: l’analisi dei processi di costruzione di esempi e l’identificazione di processi chiave costituiscono le basi per la progettazione e l’analisi dell’attività didattica che viene descritta nella seconda parte

    La tesi si propone di confrontare l’Alcesti di Euripide, tragedia greca messa in scena nel 438 a.C. e l’Alcesti di Samuele di Alberto Savinio, rappresentata per la prima volta al Piccolo Teatro di Milano nel 1950. Il primo capitolo fornisce informazioni biografiche sull’autore. Il secondo capitolo raccoglie e descrive gli interventi sulla figura di Alcesti pubblicati da Savinio sui giornali ed esamina le fonti dell’opera teatrale. Il terzo capitolo è dedicato all’illustrazione delle due opere. Nel quarto capitolo si procede all’analisi e al confronto. Nell’ultimo capitolo si presentano alcune considerazioni sul metateatro, sulla trama, sui personaggi e sui temi principali dell’Alcesti di Samuele. The aim of this work is to compare the Greek tragedy Alcesti by Euripides, performed on stage in 438 B.C., with the Alcesti di Samuele by Alberto Savinio, first performed at the Piccolo Teatro in Milan in 1950. The first chapter provides biographical information about the Author. The second chapter collects and describes the works about the character of Alcesti published by Savinio on newspapers and examines the sources of the play. The third chapter is about the description of the two works. The fourth chapter contains their analysis and comparison. In the last chapter some considerations about metatheatre and about the plot, the characters and the main themes of the Alcesti di Samuele are carried out

    Environmental Analysis of Different End of Life Scenarios of Tires Textile Fibers

    No full text
    AbstractEnd-of-Life Tires (ELT) are one of the main source of waste in End of Life Vehicles (ELVs). Textile fibers represent about 10% in weight of the ELT and every year, in Europe, about 320,000 tons of dirty fibrous material must be disposed as special waste. Studies show that the fibrous material can be used in second life applications, reducing the environmental impacts of tires disposal, but none of these researches quantitatively evaluate the achievable benefits. This study presents a comparative evaluation of the environmental impacts of the tires considering different scenarios for the end of life of the textile fibers material
