No full textBAG3 in Tumor Resistance to Therapy. MC Turco: Corresoponding Author
No full textBAG3 is highly expressed across cancer types and its intracellular activity is critical for cancer cell survival. However, recent findings suggest that BAG3 can also modulate the tumor microenvironment to promote cancer progression and resistance to therapies, suggesting new ways to target this protein in cancer therapy
The role of public governance in the pursuit of sustainable development of the ILVA steel plant: An interpretative framework
No full textThe aim of this paper was to investigate the role of public institutions in the pursuit of sustainable development in a case study of international relevance: Taranto's ILVA steel plant, which is one of the biggest steel and iron centres in Europe. The case study was analysed through investigating the different aspects of sustainable development in the four phases of development of the steel plant, from public direct management to private management. The analysis, based on a series of unstructured data, was carried out by applying a triple bottom line approach and the total interpretative structuring model (TISM). Evidence shows how-in the absence of stable, coherent, strong and present public institutions, capable of reading the forces of the local and international context and of intervening with regulatory actions inspired by a planned and interiorized economic strategy-the market, left in the hands of the private entrepreneur only, is destined to fail, and the paths of multidimensional sustainable development stray away from the ambitions of modern states
The digitization of museum collections for the research, management and enhancement of Cultural Heritage
Full text linkThe research project takes part of the pilot initiative “Create a network around your research idea”, funded within the framework of the collaboration between Politecnico di Torino and Compagnia di San Paolo. The initiative promotes the research projects proposed by researchers of the Politecnico di Torino in collaboration with universities, companies and other entities of the socio-economic system located in Italy and in any other State Member of EU.
The research draws inspiration from BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodologies - more conventionally applied in the field of Construction Industry - to build a workflow capable of virtually reproducing 3D objects, integrating geometric and semantic information. The case studies are some small objects belonging to the collections of the Egyptian Museum of Turin and pursuing three different levels of knowledge: from the scientific research to the data management system up to the settlement of virtual platforms for dissemination.
The research project B.A.C.K. TO T.H.E. F.U.T.U.RE. - BIM Acquisition as Cultural Key TO Transfer Heritage of ancient Egypt For many Uses To many Users Replayed - tries to set up a new methodology in which the Information Modeling tools are used in an unconventional way, to build 3D models and linked databases of small objects, in particular belonging to museum collections and not publicly accessible. Inspired by Ministerial Decree n. 113/2018, entitled “Adoption of uniform minimum levels of quality for museums and places of culture of public belonging and activation of the National Museum System”, we have reinterpreted the improvement objectives described in the document and associated them to the three defined macro areas, through the use of interoperable digital technologies
L'insediamento ellenistico nell'area della fattoria romana di contrada Grammena a Valcorrente
No full textL’articolo inquadra la fase ellenistica dell’insediamento indagato in Contrada Grammena a Valcorrente di Belpasso (Catania) in occasione degli scavi archeologici, condotti dalla Soprintendenza di Catania nel 2007, nei quali si sono portati alla luce i resti di una fattoria romana (III-VII secolo d.C) che ha distrutto il precedente insediamento ellenistico, e di una basilica a tre navate con nartece, datata ad età tardo-bizantina (VIII sec. d.C. – prima metà del IX sec. d.C.). La continuità insediativa viene motivata dalla centralità dell’insediamento
La modellazione digitale ricostruttiva: il caso della chiesa della Misericordia a Torino
No full textIl lavoro è volto all'analisi delle più recenti tecniche di modellazione digitale, basata sui dati eterogenei di rilievo (stazione totale, laser scanner, rilievo manuale, fotografico,...) per una fedele ricostruzione formale e materica di un manufatto oggetto di vincolo. Il risultato di questa operazione costituirà la base dati per le successive operazioni di restaur
PARAMETRIC HERITAGE. THE DIGITAL RECONSTRUCTION OF P.L. NERVI’S PALAZZO DEL LAVORO IN THE 3DMODELLING AGE
Full text linkOne of the main themes of this work is to incorporate the geometric aspects that characterize a certain type of architecture within a broader rule system, which, in the whole, generate the forms. Therefore, the solution would be to draw the reconstruction of a parametric model, through the application to a selected case study: Palazzo del Lavoro of Pier Luigi Nervi. The identification of some weaknesses of the project is important in order to digitally intervene on them, to prefigure a new life of the artifact in a virtual environment. By doing so, it will be possible to have truthful feedback in the real environment. The survey phase did not intend to reason on the architecture in its complexity, but rather on the observation of the matrices that regulate the similar geometries between them. The translation of these matrices into mathematical models, following the logic of HBIM and Algorithmic Design (AD), has allowed the creation of two different models. The first one, an informed model, characterized by a more traditional workflow, consists of building components based on design drawings of the time, aimed at graphically and quantitatively describe the entire artifact. The second one, a partial model of the only vertical component of the facade, is based on the canons of the element, and it is structured through algorithms that describe only a part of the architecture. The research wanted to deepen the interoperability of the information coming from the parametric models BIM with those generated by the algorithms
