'L'INTERPRETAZIONE GIUDIZIALE DEI TRATTATI INTERNAZIONALI'
No full textThe thesis is devoted to treaty interpretation by international judges. The subject has already been studied in depth by international law’s scholars: this work is an attempt of analysis from the philosophy of law’s perspective. In particular, the thesis focuses on three main topics: the first chapter is devoted to the concept of “international treaty”, the second chapter is devoted to the question if interpretation is an art or a science and the third chapter concerns the possibility to interpret a treaty using domestic rules of interpretation. These topics allow the author to highlight three different issues:
1) the relationship between international law system and national law systems;
2) the problems related to interpretation of multilingual texts;
3) the problems related to multicultural comunication.
One of the main topic discussed in this work, the more relevant for philosophy of law, concerns the role of article 33 of Vienna Convention on multilingual texts: differently from what international law scholars think, this article, according to the author, is the most important rule of treaty interpretation.
The reason is that the interpreter is obliged to manage/face with languages wich are different from his own native language: in this sense, from the interpretation of a treaty a lot of problems due to linguistic and cultural differences could rise
An inclusive numerical framework to assess the role of feedstock features on the quality of cold spray deposits
No full textCold spray technology provides unique capabilities for coating, repair, and additive manufacturing. However experimental trial and error to optimize deposit quality indexes, that rely on powder characteristics, can be costly and tedious. In this research, multiple finite element modelling approaches were compared regarding their capability and shortcomings to analyze the role of major powder features on deposit properties. Lagrangian and CEL methods were selected as the most robust approaches for analyzing the single/multi-particle impact condition, respectively. An intricate algorithm was introduced to accurately evaluate the effect of parameters including particle size, shape, oxidation extent, and impact angle on the deposition indicators such as critical velocity, particle flattening, and deposit porosity. The results exhibited a good agreement with the reported experimental data, confirming the capacity of the proposed numerical framework to tune the deposit properties as a function of a wide range of feedstock characteristics. It was concluded that for successful deposition, the effect of various powder properties and their respective effect and contribution towards plastic deformation should be taken into account. The results indicated that for a given particle velocity, smaller particle, more irregular morphology, thicker oxide layer, and smaller impact angle will result in limited particle deformation and a lower possibility of successful adhesion
