Degrees of freedom effect on fragmentation in tandem mass spectrometry of singly charged supramolecular aggregates of sodium sulfonates
No full textThe characteristic collision energy (CCE) to obtain 50% fragmentation of positively and negatively single charged non-covalent clusters has been measured. CCE was found to increase linearly with the degrees of freedom (DoF) of the precursor ion, analogously to that observed for synthetic polymers. This suggests that fragmentation behavior (e.g. energy randomization) in covalent molecules and clusters are similar. Analysis of the slope of CCE with molecular size (DoF) indicates that activation energy of fragmentation of these clusters (loss of a monomer unit) is similar to that of the lowest energy fragmentation of protonated leucine-enkephalin. Positively and negatively charged aggregates behave similarly, but the slope of the CCE vs DoF plot is steeper for positive ions, suggesting that these are more stable than their negative counterparts

No full textIl volume raccoglie i materiali espo¬sti alla mostra “Gustavo Giovannoni tra Storia e Pro¬getto”, svoltasi a Roma presso gli ambienti delle Terme di Diocleziano del Museo Nazionale Romano tra il 5 febbraio e il 15 marzo 2016. L’idea della Mostra, maturata nell’ambito del “Cen¬tro di Studi per la Storia dell’Architettura” fondato da Giovannoni nel 1939 e da lui diretto sino alla sua morte nel 1947, intendeva inserirsi nell’ambito di una serie di iniziative volte a ricordare la figura di studioso, teorico e progettista in prossimità della ricor¬renza del 70° anno dalla scomparsa. Curata dal “Centro di Studi per la Storia dell’Archi¬tettura”, la mostra è stata realizzata in collaborazione con la Soprintendenza Speciale per il Colosseo, il Museo Na¬zionale Romano e l’Area Archeologica di Roma. L’articolazione in sezioni già presente alla mostra si riflet¬te nell’articolazione di questo volume e sono le seguenti: “Formazione e didattica” a cura di Marina Docci e Ma¬rina Magnani Cianetti, “Storia dell’architettura” a cura di Piero Cimbolli Spagnesi e Augusto Roca De Amicis, “Architettura” a cura di Simona Benedetti, Ilaria Delsere e Fabrizio Di Marco, “Città, ambiente, paesaggio: tra vec¬chio e nuovo” a cura di Maria Piera Sette e Andrea Pane, “Restauro” a cura di Maria Grazia Turco e Claudio Varagnoli.The book collects the materials of the exhibition “Gustavo Giovannoni between History and Project”, held in Rome at the Baths of Diocletian in the National Roman Museum between February 5 and March 15, 2016. The idea of the exhibition, matured in the context of the “Centro of Studies for the History of Architecture” founded by Giovannoni in 1939 and directed by him until his death in 1947, wanted to be part of initiatives aimed at remembering the figure of the scholar, theorist and designer in the recurrence of the 70th year since the disappearance. Curated by the “Center of Studies for the History of Architecture”, the exhibition was organized in collaboration with the Special Superintendency for the Colosseum, the National Museum of Rome and the Archaeological Area of Rome. The sections of this volume are the following: “Training and teaching” edited by Marina Docci and Marina Magnani Cianetti; “History of Architecture” edited by Piero Cimbolli Spagnesi and Augusto Roca De Amicis; “Architecture” edited by Simona Benedetti, Ilaria Delsere and Fabrizio Di Marco; “City, environment, landscape: between old and new” edited by Maria Piera Sette and Andrea Pane; “Restoration” edited by Maria Grazia Turco and Claudio Varagnoli
Tectonic Evolution of the Central Mediterranean from the Mesozoic to the present.
No full textThe tectonic evolution of the central Mediterranean region has been traced through a quantitative
kinematic model, based on: a) A new Pangaea fit for the late Ladinian (230 Ma), together with a
plate motions model of the break-up of this supercontinent from the middle Triassic to Chron M25
(Schettino and Turco, in preparation); b) A recent kinematic model for the evolution of the Western
Mediterranean region during the late Oligocene to early Miocene (33 Ma-19 Ma) interval (Schettino
and Turco, 2006); c) A new set of tectonic reconstructions for the opening of the Tyrrhenian basin

Body setation pale yellow, very long, dense, lanuginose. Body length: 10–13 mm.</p> <p> Head distinctly transverse, without a depressed area over the eyes, frontal area between calli present (as in <i>C. adamovichiana</i>, see Fig. 5D), frons convex in female, eyes slightly bulged, inner portion of frontal calli more or less extensively orange; templa very short, converging in male. Male antennae extremely modified as in Fig. 2I, setation yellowish; antennomere I bearing a long, narrow and slightly sinuate expansion on the external side and a dorsal keel very wide, high and apically curved; III–VIII more or less transverse and variously modified; V–VI each with a tuft of very long yellow setae; V with short setae on distal face of ventral laminar expansion; VI with a very long, narrow and distinctly curved expansion on ventral side; VIII pointed on one side; IX transverse, apically rounded, dorsally slightly flattened and dorsal edge bilobate (posterior lobe particularly pointed). Female antennae not modified, antennal club shorter than the preceding four antennomeres combined, last antennomere narrow at base, ovate. Male maxillary palpomere III in dorsal view very swollen and rounded externally, IV triangular, gradually widened from base to apex (Fig. 3I); female palpomeres slender.</p> <p>Pronotum wide, almost parallel in the basal half and progressively curved anteriorly, in male with two deep and wide oblique dimples on the anterior half, with a narrow longitudinal middle furrow; in female sides widely rounded anteriorly. Male protibiae not depressed dorso-ventrally, in female the apical external angle only slightly pointed; protibial keel (Fig. 4I) high, progressively higher from base to apex, slightly curved anteriorly, without any angular prominence anteriorly; protibial spur pointed. Male protarsi short, about as long as protibiae, with the first two tarsomeres together longer than the remaining three, protarsomere II with an apical dorsal bulge, III about as long as V, without claws. Meso- and metatibiae and tarsomeres not modified in both sexes; metatibial spurs different in shape: external sub-spatuliform and obtuse at apex, internal narrow and pointed.</p> <p>Last male abdominal sternite not modified, posterior margin V-emarginate. Gonostyli, in lateral view, straight with apical lobes directed forward; apical lobes, in dorsal view, swollen and parallel. Apex of aedeagus pointed; aedeagal hooks equal in size. Sclerotised hooks of endophallus small and very close to each other, equal in size, the apical pointing outwards and the subapical backwards (Fig. 6I).</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The name of this species refers to the long setae on antennomere VI, which discriminate it from <i>C. albopilosa</i>.</p> <p> <b>Taxonomic remarks.</b> <i>Cerocoma longiseta</i> is very similar and closely related to <i>C. albopilosa</i> from which it can be recognised by the following characters: (a) yellowish setae below the antennomere VI distinctly longer; (b) antennomere VIII slightly pointed (rounded in <i>C. albopilosa</i>); (c) maxillary palpomere III wider and more rounded. These two species show partially overlapping ranges with <i>C. longiseta</i> distributed from Bulgaria to the southeastern Turkey and <i>C. albopilosa</i> occurring in southeastern Turkey (Adana and Osmanyie provinces) and south Iran. These species are syntopic along the southeastern coast of Turkey.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> E Bulgaria, Turkey.</p>Published as part of <i>Turco, Federica & Bologna, Marco A., 2011, Systematic revision of the genus Cerocoma Geoffroy, 1762 (Coleoptera: Meloidae: Cerocomini) 2853, pp. 1-71 in Zootaxa 2853 (1)</i> on pages 34-35, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.2853.1.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/5286891">http://zenodo.org/record/5286891</a>
Enriched buckling for beam-lattice metamaterials
No full textWe discuss two examples of beam-lattice metamaterials which show attractive mechanical properties concerning their enriched buckling. The first one considers pantographic beams and the nonlinear solution is traced out numerically on the base of a Hencky's model and an algorithm based on Riks’ arc-length scheme. The second one concerns a beam-lattice with sliders and the nonlinear solution is discussed in analytic way and, finally, extended to the case of uniform in-plane tension. Some concluding remarks draw possible future developments and challenges

The Lewis Turco Collection
No full textOn April 14, 1962 poet and English instructor Lewis Turco announced the founding of the Poetry Center at Fenn College. As the director of the center, over the next two years Turco would propel the program forward to achieve great success and a lasting legacy in the Cleveland community.
In those two years, the poetry center would attract such prominent and legendary authors such as William Golding, author of Lord of the Flies, Kenyon College critic John Crowe Ransom, and Paris Review poetry editor X. J. Kennedy.
Under Turco’s direction, the center demonstrated its dedication to sponsoring and promoting local Cleveland literature programs as well as playing host to numerous Ohio programs in writing and literature, such as the Ohio Versewriters\u27 Conference...https://engagedscholarship.csuohio.edu/cmpex/1023/thumbnail.jp
Hycleus dunalis Bologna & Turco 2007, n. sp.
No full textHycleus dunalis Bologna & Turco n. sp. Type specimen. Holotype female: U.A.E., Abu Dhabi Emirate, EA4, Al Bateen dunes, 4 Km W Al Aïn on the road to Abu Dhabi, 24,20491° N 55,61263° E, 195 m a.s.l., 15.iii.2005 M. Bologna & F. Turco coll., on Tribulus omanense (CB). Diagnosis. One Hycleus with Mesogorbatus - type mesosternum, characterized by elytral pattern composed by three series of three black spots angulate in position, and subpentagonal pronotum. Description. Body shiny and unicolor black, elytra shiny brown-orange with three series of black spots, angulate in position, one anterior, one on the middle and one on the posterior third (Fig. 16); setation denser and black on head and pronotum, sparser and obliquely recumbent on elytra, slightly denser at base. Pubescence sparse, black; genae and protibiae with external longer setae. Maximal body length: 9.1 mm. Head transverse, with the maximum width at the level of eye; punctures deep, wide and relatively dense, slightly scattered on frons, the intermediate surface unpucturate; frons convex; eye globose, laterally extended on almost the entire gena, with the antero-dorsal margin not sinuate; temples short and parallel, shorter than the longitudinal diameter of eye. Clypeus evidently narrower than the interocular width, rounded on sides, convex and with the same puncturation of head; fronto-clypeal suture well visible; labrum as long as clypeus, the fore margin almost slightly sinuate, shagreened. Maxillary palpomeres subcylindrical and stout, IV slightly enlarged anteriorly, with black setae on the external side of the apex of each palpomere (except IV), particularly on III; maxillae and labial palpi not modified; mandibles robust, curved in the fore half. Antennae with 11 antennomeres, I–II shiny, the following opaque, III–VI vaguely reddish at base; I longer than II–III together, II subglobose, III–VI slender and subcylindrical, III slightly longer than IV and evidently more than V–VI, VII–X subtrapezoidal, apically enlarged on external side, evidently increasing in width and length from VII to X, XI at base as wide as X but two times longer, the apical half evidently and conically narrowed, apex obtuse. Pronotum subpentagonal, slightly wider than long, almost as wide as head on eye, sides subparallel before the middle and then evidently narrowing anteriad; fore portion transversally depressed; middle furrow extended only in the middle, base shorly depressed just in front of mesonotum; puncturation similar to that on head, but slightly deeper. Elytra parallel, dorsally convex, shiny with dense but superficial, middle sized punctures, with black pattern as in Fig. 16. Mesosternum of the Mesogorbatus - type (Fig. 17); fore margins of mesepisterna well defined, not greatly wide, concave and evidently depressed, at the same level of the sclerite, laterally well defined; fore area of mesosternum smooth and shiny. Legs slender, both tibial spurs on all legs slender, the external on metatibiae only slightly rounded at apex; ventral blade of claw regularly developed. Abdominal sternites shiny with very scattered puncturation. Etymology. The name refers to the red sand dunes where the species lives. Relationships. The position of H. dunalis is not completely clarified because males, and the features they exhibit, remain unknown. It has a mesosternum as in the Mesogorbatus - type lineage, but we can not refer it with certainty to the group of H. quatuordecimsignatus, or relate it to H. gratiosus (see above). It phenetically differs from the group of H. brunnipes at least because of the unicolour black legs. It has an elytral pattern similar to that of H. gratiosus, but also to that of H. pseudobrunnipes and H. saharicus, both belonging to the group of H. quatuordecimsignatus. It differs evidently from H. gratiosus and H. pseudobrunnipes because of the regular shape of claws, with the ventral blade well developed, the pronotum subpentagonal, shorter and with denser puncturation. The pronotum shape is similar to that of H. saharicus, with marked middle angles, but the punctures are deeper and the intermediate surface shiner; moreover the mesosternum is wider and slightly curved on sides.Published as part of Bologna, Marco A. & Turco, Federica, 2007, The Meloidae (Coleoptera) of the United Arab Emirates with an updated Arabian checklist, pp. 1-33 in Zootaxa 1625 (1) on pages 21-22, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.1625.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/510330
