Don Denis. Poesie d'amore. Edizione commentata.
No full textThe study consists of a comment edition of 127 don Denis’ s love poems, conventionally divided into two sections: 75 cantigas de amor and 52 cantigas de amigo. Following the only complete edition of don Denis of Portugal (1261-1325), prepared by H. Lang in 1894, I proceeded to a textual revision, based on a systematic review of the codices and on the successive exegetical studies. The first aim of this revised critical edition is to offer an analytical comment of the poetical corpus of don Denis, the most representative author of the galician-portuguese poetry. The rich inquiry examines in detail any poem of the king poet from a thematic and rhetorical perspective and it documents the intertextual relations with the provençal and north french lyric on the one hand and the galician-portuguese poetry on the other.La tesi consiste in un’ampia edizione commentata dei 127 componimenti di tematica amorosa di don Denis di Portogallo (1261-1325), tradizionalmente ripartiti in 75 cantigas de amor e 52 cantigas de amigo. Sulla base dell’unica edizione critica completa della produzione poetica dionigina, quella allestita da H. Lang nel 1894, si è proceduto ad un’accurata revisione testuale del corpus, sia attraverso un controllo sistematico della tradizione manoscritta, sia prendendo in considerazione le recensioni e i successivi contributi critici. Ne risulta un’edizione criticamente rivista che si pone come obiettivo principale quello di offrire un analitico commento esegetico-critico ai singoli testi del re trovatore, unanimamente riconosciuto come il poeta più colto e rappresentativo della lirica galego-portoghese, ma al quale non sono stati finora dedicati studi monografici esaustivi. L’esteso commento rende dunque conto degli aspetti tematici, metrici, retorici e linguistici delle differenti poesie, nonché della fitta trama intertestuale che collega alcune di esse alla tradizione della lirica cortese (provenzale e francese) da un lato e al trobadorismo peninsulare dall’altro

La tutela del passeggero nella disciplina Euro-unitaria e nella giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia
No full textStarting from the four EU regulations governing the rights of passengers in the various modes of transport in the event of cancellation, long delay and denied boarding, the Author asks whether the numerous rulings of the Court of Justice, which have made it possible to resolve numerous interpretative problems raised by various provisions of the oldest regulation – i.e. EC Regulation No 261/2004 on air transport – have or have not influenced the legislator in the drafting of subsequent regulations. Furthermore, the Author, considering the future prospects of EU regulation on passenger rights also in the light of the EU Commission’s recent proposal to amend the four regulations, wonders whether the time is ripe for uniform regulation in the different modes of transport
The morphology of –ly and the categorial status of ‘adverbs’ in English.
No full textThe author challenges the traditional assumption of derivational morphology which accords adverbial –ly derivational status and gives adverbs lexical category status on a par with nouns, verbs and adjectives.
The author argues that adverbial –ly, unlike its adjectival counterpart, is inflectional and adverbs ending in –ly are rather to be regarded as inflected adjectives while those adverbs not containing –ly are uninflected adjectives; “adverbs cannot be categorially distinct from adjectives” (p. 342-343)
SEDIMENTOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF DEEP WATER, UPSLOPEMIGRATING CROSS-BEDDED DEPOSITS IN A DISTALLY STEEPENED CARBONATE RAMP (MENORCA, BALEARIC ISLANDS, SPAIN)
No full textThe upper Miocene units cropping out along the southern coast of the Island of
Menorca (Balearic Islands, Spain), are mainly represented by two carbonate
depositional systems: an early Tortonian distally steepened ramp (Lower Bar Unit)
and an upper Tortonian – lower Messinian reef-rimmed platform prograding complex
(Reef Complex). Within the distally steepened ramp, Pomar et al. (2002)
distinguished four facies belts: fan-delta conglomerates passing upwards to
bioturbated packstones (inner ramp), cross-bedded grainstones (middle- ramp),
clinostratified rhodolithic rudstone (ramp slope) and fine-grained wackestonepackstone
with planktonic foraminifera (outer ramp).
The backset-bedded units analysed in this work are placed at the transition
between toe-of-slope and outer ramp sediments, below the wave-base-level. They
infill the axial depression of large slide/slump scars. These scars truncate the gently,
10°- 12° basinward dipping, slope-to-outer ramp clinoforms.
Backset beds are cross-bedded forms that dip against the direction of flow of the
depositing currents, therefore they present foresets migrating upcurrent (Gary et al.,
1972).
These sedimentary structures are well known and largely described on the foreset
and toeset of Gilbert-type fan delta (Postma, 1984; Massari, 1984, 1996; Nemec,
1990). In carbonate depositional systems these type of bedforms are rarely found
and only little described.
The backset-bedded units, here analysed, are channel-like, wedge-shaped, 10-12
m thick, pinching out landward and extend laterally for tens of meters. Each unit is
formed by several amalgamated set of backset beds, 40 cm to 2 m thick. These units
are mainly conglomerates composed by bioclastic coarse-grained grainstone to
rudstone. Large components are rhodoliths, bivalves, skeletal and ooid-rich pebbles
to boulders, gastropods and corals. Matrix is of a bioclastic coarse-grained sand to
fine gravel, made of fragments of bivalves, gastropods, rhodoliths, bryozoans, algae,
echinoids, loose ooids and planktonic and benthic foraminifera. Ooids are locally very
abundant both in matrix and as main components of pebbles. Pebbles are mainly
flattened, elongated, of average size 6-8 cm (a-axis) and sometimes have mollusc
borings on their surface: large (20-30 cm) rounded and spherical boulders are locally
present. Intergranular and intergranular porosity is very high, cementation low and
dolomitization patchy.
Foreset laminae dip upslope with varying angles ranging from almost horizontal to
30°; higher angles are mostly found in the basinward part of the unit. Lamination is
underline by the orientation along laminae of coarser components especially of
bivalves, pebbles and rhodoliths. Grain-size distribution has a particular trend that shows a progressive decrease in size landwards and upwards. Sorting may noticeably
vary being high or absent in different bodies.
The lower boundary of the backset-bedded units is represented by scour surfaces
which, on a parallel-to-flow section are almost concordant with the stratification
below, while on a perpendicular-to-flow section are concave-up shaped, presenting
the very steep walls.
The study of different outcrops along the coast evidenced some important
variation in components: moving northward composition changed from almost
completely rhodolithic-dominated to rhodolith-bivalve-ooid-pebble-dominated to
bivalve-ooid-pebble-dominated with first findings of corals.
Upslope bedform migration has been explained as forming when a supercritical
flow encounters a local obstruction or a local break on the slope, and a hydraulic
jump may occur within the flow, upcurrent from the obstruction. Sediment will be
therefore deposited at the obstruction forming an up-flow-dipping slipface that will
tend to accrete and migrate in the upflow direction (Nemec, 1990 and reference
therein).
The backset deposits of Menorca are found in deep-water settings but they are
composed of shallow-water sediment. The formation of these backset beds is
interpreted to be related to high energy storm-events able to remove sediment from
shallow water and to transport it into deeper position. The sediment-rich outgoing
flows channalized and accelerated along slide-scar axis, eroding and rapidly infilling
up-slope the scours. In this portion of the ramp preservation potential is higher
thanks to sediment deposition which buries and preserves these structures.
The repetitive occurrence of backset bedded units within the outer-ramp
sediments and the progressive variation in composition suggest that those processes
where probably active at the transition between the ramp and the reef systems.
Therefore the formation of these sedimentary structures is interpreted to be strictly
link to concurrence of peculiar morphological features, hydrodynamic energy and
grain-size availability.
Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical simulation have been performed as
an integrated part of this work to improve the understanding of the development of
hydraulic jumps within concentrated density flows. The simulated parameters do not
refer to the example of Menorca but to turbidity currents for which finer-grain size
(sand-size) have been used in a smaller-scale topography compared to the one
studied in outcrop. The work presented proposes some new stating points for further
simulations to constrain more precisely the main parameters controlling and
determining the occurrence of a hydraulic jump and the consequent deposition of
sediment with backset bedding
La modalità di trasporto merci Roll-on Roll-off: caratteristiche generali e analisi della capacità tramite lo studio del terminal T&C del Porto di Ravenna
No full textL’obiettivo di questa tesi di laurea è quello di descrivere la modalità di trasporto Ro-Ro: il background del settore trasportistico e della logistica portuale dal punto di vista normativo (italiano e europeo), scientifico e infrastrutturale e, in particolare, quello che caratterizza l’unico porto della Regione Emilia Romagna, ossia il Porto di Ravenna. Il principale problema di questa modalità di trasporto è rappresentato dalla limitata capacità disponibile all'interno del terminal. Infatti, il progressivo aumento della domanda di servizi Ro-Ro, implica l'effettiva possibilità di poter accogliere presso il terminal e gestire un numero sempre maggiore di veicoli per ogni partenza del traghetto Ro-Ro.
Per analizzare questo problema è stata inizialmente condotta una revisione della letteratura per conoscere l'esistente lavoro correlato su questo problema di ricerca.
Successivamente, è stata eseguita una simulazione ad eventi discreti del terminal T&C del Porto di Ravenna utilizzando il software di simulazione Anylogic®
Convenience in Funding Upgrading Works
No full textWith reference to upgrading actions on existing building stock, Construction Procurement Guidance, No.7 Whole Life Costs (Office of Government Commerce) states: ‘All procurement must be made solely on the basis of value for money in terms of the optimum combination of global costs and quality to meet the user’s requirements’. Cash-flow analyses allow showing the economic value of investments for alternative technological upgrading works extended all along their service lives. Optimisation of choices is not only a matter of cash-flow analyses—choices should not be made only according to the lowest costs but also considering several aspects that can be brought back to the concept of ‘technical-sustainable value’, which mainly derives from competent functional and environmental assessments of the reference analysis system. The mentioned interrelation should theoretically be adequately considered but this is seldom the case in the common building practice. Cost estimate for an engineered system has to entail much more detailed analyses on costs, energy, sustainability and technologies. Possible technological solutions would be convenient in terms of technological/technical utility, but less convenient in monetary terms for the funding subject. Under the economic point of view, cash outflow means less economic convenience in funding a given technology. All that stated above, nowadays effective data-display global cost-quality indicators are rarely available in literature. The present manuscript introduces to the reader fundamentals of an economic tool proposal designed by the author with the use of synthetically displaying interrelations between cash-flow scenarios and quality-sustainability in upgrading processes on existing buildings. Fundamentals have been tested on a reference case study. Then, fundamentals have been contextualized to the Italian Legislative framework: in Italy, in multi-owner existing residential buildings, expenditure allocation is carried out based on thousandths. The thousandth type to be considered is due to the configuration of the case under review and to balance-sheet expenditure to be allocated to owners. Property thousandths allocated to housing units have been used to allocate expenses for technological/energy upgrading works. The author has tried to find out the amount of a possible bank investment that a user might start at building Time ‘0’ to theoretically clear possible economic losses, trying to highlight technical utility of the technological solution that would be disadvantaged in economic terms. ‘Neutral’ mathematical finance formulas have been used to calculate the theoretical capital to be invested by an owner based on the reference cash-flow scenario. Conclusion will be drawn at the end of the manuscript
