Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche porte sur l’investigation philologique d’un texte bouddhique en pali, le Vajirasaratthasangaha composé dans le Nord de la Thaïlande (XVe-XVIe siècles), qui n’a jamais fait l’objet d’une étude intégrale. Le but est d’établir une édition critique de ce texte et de son commentaire, traduire intégralement ce corpus, et saisir sa place dans le bouddhisme du sud-est asiatique. Ce compendium est unique dans le champ de la littérature pali, tant dans la nature de ses contenus que dans son mode de présentation. Il embrasse un grand volume d’enseignements qui traitent de thématiques diverses, telles que des points de doctrines religieuses, de l’étymologie, des mathématiques, de la poétique, la cosmologie, des devinettes, etc. Le mode de composition singulier de ce texte s’appuie sur le codage de chacun de ses chapitres, faisant appel à des mécanismes et jeux qui concernent essentiellement le langage et sa construction : devinettes savantes, notions grammaticales, polysémies, acrostiches, etc. Cette œuvre est ainsi une synthèse originale d’éléments érudits (hua chai, ekakkhara, etc.) qui témoigne d’une part de l’importance qu’a pu revêtir l’étude avancée de la langue dans le contexte du Lanna du XVIe siècle. D’autre part, certains de ses enseignements éclairent d’un jour nouveau certaines spécificités régionales dans leurs dimensions pratiques et ésotériques. Il ouvre ainsi de nouvelles voies de compréhension du statut du pali en tant que langue sacréeThis research is a philological investigation of a Buddhist text in Pali, the Vajirasaratthasangaha written in Northern Thailand (15th-16th), which has never been the object of a full-fledged study. It aims to establish a critical edition of this text and its commentary, to translate this corpus, and to understand its place within the Buddhism of South-East Asia. This compendium is unique in the Pali literary landscape, in its mode of presentation as well as in its contents. It contains an important amount of Buddhist teachings that deal with a variety of topics, such as moral principles for lay Buddhists, etymology, mathematics, poetics, cosmology, riddles, etc. The singular mode of composition of this text is based on the encoding of each chapters, mainly relying on mechanisms and games that concern essentially the language and its construction: riddles, grammatical notions, polysemies, acrostichs, etc. Thus, this text is an original synthesis of scholarly elements (hua chai, ekakkhara, etc.) that testifies, first, to the importance of advanced linguistic studies in the Lanna context during the 16th century. Secondly, some of the elements presented throw some new light on regional specificities in their practical and esoterical dimensions, opening new ways for understanding the status of Pali as a sacred language

Full textAbstract:
The dissertation deals with the modelling of the behaviour of bored pile,
embedded in a coarse grained soil, axially loaded in tension and
compression, with particular attention to the mobilization of the lateral
and the base capacities.
A series of almost 60 centrifuge tests has been carried out on free-headed
and close-ended rough model piles, instrumented and not, whose
dimensions varies from 8 mm to 32 mm in diameter and 160 mm to 320
mm in length. The tests have been carried out at various acceleration
levels between 30g and 160g, thus simulating a large series of prototype
dimensions. The “ideally non-displacement” model piles are embedded
in a very fine silica sand, called FF, pluvially deposed at a medium and a
high density.
To analyse the load direction effect on the mobilisation of the skin
friction, the results of tension tests are compared with those gathered in
compression at same state conditions.
A series of almost 150 direct shear constant normal stiffness tests, on
interface between FF sand and rigid aluminium plates of various surface
roughness has been performed.
All centrifuge and direct shear constant normal stiffness tests have been
performed at the ISMGEO laboratories (Istituto Sperimentale Modelli
Geotecnici in Seriate BG, Italy), which totally financed the experimental
program.
The conceptual framework of the physical modelling of bored pile
foundation in centrifuge is described in the first part of the thesis,
underlining the limitations mainly connected to the scale effects. The
experimental set up, the model piles dimensions and characteristics, the mechanical properties of the FF sand, the sample deposition technique,
the test instrumentations and procedures are also outlined.
The common empirical correlations for the prediction of the shaft
resistance are summarised and applied to the centrifuge test results; a
new formulation to evaluate the normal stress variation, acting on the pile
shaft at peak friction, is also proposed, which take into account for the
density of the sand.
The scale effects on the ultimate shaft resistance and on the correlated
settlement are analysed so as the displacement scaling law which has to
be applied on the interface behaviour to scale the settlement of model
pile to prototype scale.
The critical and ultimate base resistance of model non-displacement piles
loaded in centrifuge tests are evaluated using the most common practical
correlations. New formulations for the evaluation of the critical base
resistance from a cone penetration test and the sand state parameters are
presented.
The main conclusions derived from the centrifuge loading tests on model
piles, from the direct shear constant normal stiffness interface tests and
form some literature data, are summarised in the last chapter together
with future developments of the research.

Full textAbstract:
Dans cette etude nous montrons quelques aspects de la doctrine de l'anatta (non-soi) telle qu'elle est enseignee dans le canon pali. A ce sujet nous avons consulte une grande partie du tipitaka pali (sutta, vinaya, abhidhamma) ainsi que les commentaires (atthakatha) et les sous-commentaires (tika). Le terme "atta" correspond dans la philosophie vedique a brahman ou l'atman eternel. Donc, le prefixe negatif "an+atta" reconnait dans la philosophie bouddhique l'anatta ou doctrine du non-soi. La premiere partie de la these est consacree a l'etude historique et philosophico-religieuse de l'inde ancienne, la deuxieme partie apporte l'enseignement fondamental bouddhique de la doctrine du non-soi. La troisieme partie l'etude analytique de l'individu, prouve que il n'y a rien existe un soi eternel dans cet individu empirique. Dans la quatrieme partie nous faisons une etude comparee de la philosophie indienne sur le soi eternel et nous concluons cette these avec nos reponses sur le silence du buddha sur l'avyakataIn this work we bring out some aspects of the anatta doctrine (non-self) depicted in the pali canon. In this regard we have consulted a large portion of the pali tipitaka (sutta,vinaya, abhidhamma) as well as the commentaries (atthakatha) and its subcommentaries (tika). The term "atta" corresponds in the vedic philosophy to braham or atman eternal. Therefore the prefix negatif "an+atta" is a recognition under buddhist philosophy of anatta or doctrine of non-self. In the first part of the thesis we study the historical, philosophical and religious back ground of ancient india, and in the second part we examine the fundamental teachings of buddhism relating to the no-soul doctrine. Then, the third part "analytical study of an individual" proves that no permanent soul exists amongst this empirical individuals. In the fourth part, we make a comparative study of philosophies on the eternal soul in ancient india, and we conclude this thesis by giving our explanations on the silence of the buddha on the avyakata

Full textAbstract:
We need a large amount of energy to make our homes pleasantly warm in winter and cool in summer. If we also consider the energy losses that occur through roofs, perimeter walls and windows, it would be more appropriate to speak of waste than consumption.
The solution would be to build passive houses, i.e. buildings more efficient and environmentally friendly, able to ensure a drastic reduction of electricity and heating bills.
Recently, the increase of public awareness about global warming and environmental pollution problems have “finally” opened wide possibility in the field of sustainable construction by encouraging new renewable methods for heating and cooling space.
Shallow geothermal allows to exploit the renewable heat reservoir, present in the soil at depths between 15 and 20 m, for air-conditioning of buildings, using a ground source heat pump.
This thesis focuses on the design of an air-conditioning system with geothermal heat pump coupled to energy piles, i.e. piles with internal heat exchangers, for a typical Italian-family building, on the basis of a geological-technical report about a plot of Bologna’s plain provided by Geo-Net s.r.l.
The study has involved a preliminary static sizing of the piles in order to calculate their length and number, then the project was completed making the energy sizing, where it has been verified if the building energy needs were met with the static solution obtained.
Finally the attention was focused on the technical and economical validity compared to a traditional system (cost-benefit analysis) and on the problem of the uncertainty data design and their effects on the operating and initial costs of the system (sensitivity analysis).
To evaluate the performance of the thermal system and the potential use of the piles was also used the PILESIM2 software, designed by Dr. Pahud of the SUPSI’s school.

Clark, Chris. "A Study of the Apadāna, Including an Edition and Annotated Translation of the Second, Third and Fourth Chapters." Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/13438.
Full textAbstract:
The Apadāna is a Theravāda Buddhist text in the Pāli language which contains a large collection of “autohagiographies” in verse. It is under-researched, partly because the Pali Text Society edition of this text is not of a high standard and partly because very few of its poems have been translated into any European language. The aim of this thesis is to provide a better understanding of the Apadāna’s content, its relationship to similar texts and the nature of its historical transmission. A series of textual comparisons revealed that the Apadāna has structural, stylistic and thematic similarities to a range of other early Buddhist texts. In particular, the system of karma underlying much of its narrative is reasonably consistent with that of several early Sanskrit avadāna collections, including its basic technical vocabulary. A major component of this thesis is an edition and annotated translation of the second, third and fourth chapters of the Apadāna. This new edition has been edited according to stemmatic principles, using a careful selection of nine palm leaf manuscripts (in Sinhala, Burmese and Khom scripts) and four printed editions (in Roman, Sinhala, Burmese and Thai scripts). The base text of this edition represents the reconstructed archetype of the selected manuscripts, corrected only where absolutely necessary. The corresponding annotated English translation has been produced with critical reference to the text’s primary commentary in Pāli, the Apadānaṭṭhakathā, and a word-by-word Burmese language nissaya translation. A major finding is that existing printed editions of the Apadāna not infrequently include silent emendations of the received text and also often reproduce the “smoother” and more easily understood readings first produced during the editorial preparations to the “fifth Buddhist council” of 1871 in Mandalay. More generally, this thesis demonstrates the indispensability of manuscripts for the historical study of Pāli language and literature.

Full textAbstract:
GeólogoEl estudio y protección del patrimonio geológico y de la geodiversidad surge como una necesidad de la sociedad por entender y preservar el medio natural que nos rodea. En varios países se han logrado avances importantes en el reconocimiento y divulgación de la importancia del geopatrimonio. En Chile este tema está comenzando a ser valorado y este trabajo pretende ser un aporte para fomentar el desarrollo de esta área a nivel nacional. El objetivo principal del presente estudio es realizar un catastro de potenciales geositios al interior del Parque Nacional Pali Aike (PNPA), mediante la utilización de una metodología constituida por 3 procesos fundamentales: identificación, selección y clasificación. La identificación se desarrolló a través de la búsqueda y reconocimiento de lugares de interés geológico basado en sus características científicas, didácticas y estéticas. Los lugares identificados se evaluaron determinando el valor intrínseco, el valor de uso potencial y la necesidad de protección ligada a estos sitios. Para la selección de los lugares a proponer a la sociedad geológica de Chile como potenciales geositios se consideró solo el valor intrínseco de los lugares inventariados, debido a que la potencialidad de uso y necesidad de protección se utilizarán para determinar la estrategia a seguir en su posterior gestión. De los 23 lugares identificados y evaluados, 9 fueron seleccionados como potenciales geositios. Dentro de ellos se ha interpretado que 4 se originaron debido a la actividad volcánica del mismo centro eruptivo (Fuentes, en preparación) por lo que se agruparon como uno solo. Los 6 lugares seleccionados fueron caracterizados y calificados para detallar y precisar su real valor. Esto permitió realizar una seriación de los potenciales geositios determinando que 2 de ellos son de relevancia internacional o nacional, y a los 4 restantes se les atribuye importancia en el ámbito regional o local. Finalmente, se propusieron estrategias de conservación, divulgación y monitoreo que se ajustan a las características y necesidades de los sitios escogidos.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis presents a new edition of a section of the Saḷāyatanasaṃyutta, which forms part of the Saṃyuttanikāya in the Pali canon, and documents the basic principles that should be used for producing a critical edition. It discusses the manuscripts and associated commentaries of the Saḷāyatanasaṃyutta that are listed in manuscript catalogues and describes the characteristics of the manuscripts and printed editions used for editing this text. The thesis also provides a critical study of the structure and content of the Saḷāyatanasaṃyutta as a whole. The new edition shows that, as is the case with other saṃyuttas and nikāyas, the Saḷāyatanasaṃyutta is structured to ensure faithful preservation and transmission. In addition, this text contains the major theme of Buddhist teachings, namely, the Four Noble Truths and dependent origination (paṭiccasamuppāda). The new edition is based on a greater number and range of witnesses than those used in Feer’s 1894 PTS edition. It also records the significant information contained in the colophons of the manuscripts, which Feer omitted, and corrects numerous errors in Feer’s edition. Although it is common practice to abbreviate repetitive passages in manuscripts and editions, the current edition always gives the text in full so that the original form of each sutta can be easily ascertained. All variant readings, both valid and invalid, are recorded in the critical apparatus and appendices, respectively. Unless there is sufficient supporting evidence, the present edition does not change or correct the text. The best reading is evaluated from both internal (the intrinsic value of the readings) and external (date, number of witness, etc.) forms of evidence. By displaying the unabbreviated text, this edition makes a significant contribution to the preservation of the text and the prevention of future corruption and loss.

Full textAbstract:
GeólogoEl Cráter Morada del Diablo consiste en conos piroclásticos coalescentes múltiples con flujos de lava basáltica asociados (45-47.30% SiO2). Se edifica hasta los 240 m.s.n.m., abarca cerca de 17.877 km2 y está ubicado a unos 150 km de la ciudad de Punta Arenas, Chile. El Cráter Morada del Diablo está inmerso en el Campo Volcánico Pali Aike, que se divide en tres unidades principales que corresponden a una unidad basal de lavas de plateau, una unidad intermedia con conos piroclásticos, maares y flujos de lava asociados afectados por erosión y una unidad más joven de conos piroclásticos y flujos de lava carente de erosión y sedimentación eólica conservando los rasgos primarios. Dentro de esta última unidad se encuentra al Cráter Morada del Diablo, que a su vez tiene a la unidad Lavas del Diablo II que es el episodio volcánico más reciente del Campo Volcánico Pali Aike (<10000 años). Los conos piroclásticos de Cráter Morada del Diablo tienen una tendencia de elongación y alineamiento preferente al NW-SE, obedeciendo a uno de los controles estructurales predominantes del Campo Volcánico Pali Aike, que corresponderían a fallas reactivadas del rift Patagónico Austral del Mesozoico. La evolución eruptiva del Cráter Morada del Diablo ha sido divida en cuatros episodios, donde los dos primeros corresponden a la formación de los conos piroclásticos, Morada del Diablo I y Morada del Diablo II, y luego dos flujos de lava asociados al cono más reciente, Lavas del Diablo I y Lavas del Diablo II, todos los estadios de edad Pleistoceno - Holoceno. La unidad Lavas del Diablo II es la fase eruptiva final del Campo Volcánico Pali Aike. Las rocas pertenecientes al Cráter Morada del Diablo son basaltos alcalinos de clinopiroxeno, caracterizados por tener composiciones primitivas con valores de Mg# en promedio de 59.3 y una signatura de elementos traza similar a basaltos de islas oceánicas. El estilo de erupción de Cráter Morada del Diablo, basado en sus productos, es principalmente Hawaiiano. Sin embargo, también presenta características distintivas de erupciones tipo Estrombolianas, por lo que se relaciona de forma más precisa a un estilo de erupción transicional. La conservación de los rasgos primarios, las posibilidades de acceso, protección y difusión al pertenecer al Parque Nacional Pali Aike, hacen del Cráter Morada del Diablo una oportunidad invaluable para el desarrollo del Geoturismo y la correspondiente identificación, evaluación y cuantificación de Geositios.

Full textAbstract:
Paratie di pali passivi sono state adottate con successo nel passato sia come intervento stabilizzante di fenomeni franosi attivi sia al fine di prevenire future instabilità, tanto da essere oggi una tecnica ampiamente accettata nella pratica ingegneristica.
Mentre i pali passivi sono generalmente impiegati con lo scopo di ridurre l’entità degli spostamenti del terreno, i criteri di progetto più comunemente utilizzati fanno riferimento alle sole condizioni limite del sistema palo-terreno, non considerando affatto fenomeni di interazione e per questo non risultando adeguati alla valutazione dell’effettivo campo di spostamenti sia dell’opera che del suolo adiacente.
Lo scopo della presente ricerca è quello di introdurre una metodologia di calcolo basata sugli spostamenti finalizzata all’analisi ed al progetto di pali passivi rigidi installati in diverse tipologie di terreno. In particolare, il metodo analizza il caso di un palo rigido immorsato in un terreno alla Winkler, sia libero che vincolato in testa. In particolare, il modello di terreno utilizzato permette l’implementazione di diverse stratigrafie di terreno e di considerarne lo spostamento come input di calcolo al fine di stimare la relativa deformazione del palo e le sollecitazioni di taglio e momento agenti sull’asta in funzione dello spostamento raggiunto dal terreno. Un codice di calcolo scritto in linguaggio FORTRAN è stato inoltre sviluppato al fine di svolgere il calcolo numerico.
Il metodo proposto risulta implementabile all’interno dei tradizionali metodi all’equilibrio limite o più in generale all’interno di metodi disaccoppiati. Sono inoltre state sviluppate delle abachi progettuali adimensionali per alcune semplici stratigrafie di terreno, nelle quali lo sforzo di taglio sulla superficie di scorrimento offerto dal palo è diagrammato, rispetto alla posizione della superficie stessa, in relazione al massimo momento flettente agente su di esso ed agli spostamenti del suolo e della testa del palo.The use of piles to stabilise active landslides or to prevent future instabilities has been successfully applied in the past and is nowadays a widely accepted technique. However, while the stabilising piles are usually designed with the aim of reducing the soil displacement rate, the design strategies commonly adopted in engineering practice apply to the ultimate state only, not taking into account any realistic interaction mechanism between pile and soil, and are not capable of predicting the effectiveness of the pile and soil displacement magnitude. The goal of the present investigation is to propose a practical displacement-based numerical methodology for the analysis and design of passive rigid piles in different ground conditions. The developed method considers both a free-head and an unrotated-head rigid pile, embedded in a Winkler type soil and subjected to the sliding of a surrounding soil. The Winkler approach allows to consider a layered soil stratigraphy and to use the horizontal displacement of the surrounding soil as an input to evaluate the associated lateral deflection of the pile as well as the acting shear forces and bending moments in function of the external ground displacement. A FORTRAN computer program has been written to implement the numerical procedure. The proposed method seems to be suitable for being implemented in traditional Limit Equilibrium Methods or more in general in any decoupled approach method. Moreover, non-dimensional design charts have been developed for simplified soil stratigraphies, in which the required shear force offered by the pile is plotted over the sliding surface depth, as a function of the pile head deflection, the maximum bending moment and the external soil displacement.

Comparative studies in sainthood in world religions, especially Pali Buddhism and Judaism has been a substantial component of my academic interests. Constructed out of my research findings the new typology of sainthood lays emphasis on the fact the two religions have a common universal pattern of sainthood, hence parallel sainthoods.
My research concludes that Siddhartha the Buddha and Moses the Prophet as primordial saints, as saintliness as a human quality in Pali Buddhism and Judaism originates from these personalities. Any other successive types of sainthood in the said religious traditions are derived from the main type, the primordial sainthood.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation examines components of Hawaiian household economies to understand how people on the remote Nā Pali Coast of Kaua'i Island, Hawai'i, maintained continuity in domestic life well into the late nineteenth century. It focuses on two case studies, notably a series of house sites at Nu'alolo Kai and Miloli'i, two neighboring communities on the western end of Kaua'i's remote Nā Pali Coast. This research situates Hawaiian house sites of the post-contact period in the tradition of household archaeology in Polynesia more broadly. However, it considers patterns of material change in colonial settings through a framework that emphasizes persistence over progressive models of change. Moreover, it highlights the ability of people in Hawaii's hinterlands to respond to the spread of foreign goods and ideas in different ways. The study utilizes archaeological data to investigate a series of grass-thatched house or hale sites at Nu'alolo Kai and Miloli'i. The Nu'alolo Kai data was obtained from an analysis of legacy collections, as well as compiled from published and unpublished analyses. The Miloli'i data was acquired through new excavations I directed at Miloli'i in 2016 and 2017. Using individual house sites as case studies, this project models household economies in an isolated region of Hawai'i and compares these economies to case studies from more central locations in the archipelago. The research demonstrates that nineteenth-century Nā Pali Coast households continued to rely on food production at the level of the household, even as they gradually incorporated small numbers of foreign goods into household economies. Rather than using new materials and practices to recreate households in the image of outsiders, however, nineteenth-century residents of the Nā Pali Coast used foreign goods to create a distinctive version of Hawaiian domesticity. My dissertation argues that, rather than committing themselves to wholesale participation in the market economy, Nā Pali Coast households were able to strategically fashion for themselves a place on the margins of the market economy. While the remoteness of this region constrained participation in Hawai'i's emerging market economy, it also engendered resilience and autonomy during a time of large-scale social and political change in the archipelago. While this dissertation focuses on a remote region of Hawai'i, its primary findings, that Nā Pali Coast households maintained a strategic separation from the market economy in the nineteenth century, has implications studies of colonial-era change and continuity in other parts of Hawai'i and Polynesia.

In questo lavoro di tesi viene presentato un modello per lo studio di fondazioni con pali
inclinati. La formulazione analitica è sviluppata nel dominio delle frequenze, assumendo
che i pali ed il terreno abbiano un comportamento lineare; in particolare si ipotizza che il
terreno sia costituito da layer orizzontali viscoelastici, ed i pali da travi di Eulero-Bernoulli.
Si ipotizza la compatibilità degli spostamenti dei pali e del terreno nell'ipotesi che non vi
siano gaps durante il moto. L'interazione palo-terreno-palo e lo smorzamento per radiazione
sono inclusi attraverso l'uso di funzioni elastodinamiche di Green. Le equazioni di
equilibrio sono derivate in forma debole attraverso il principio di Lagrange D’Alembert, e
la soluzione è stata ottenuta numericamente attraverso l'uso di una formulazione agli
elementi finiti. La presenza della zattera rigida in testa ai pali è stata introdotta attraverso un
vincolo cinematico. La formulazione è stata semplificata introducendo l'ipotesi di Baranov
schematizzando il terreno come un mezzo costituito da layer orizzontali indipendenti tra
loro e utilizzando espressioni disponibili in letteratura (funzioni di Green) per descrivere il
comportamento dinamico di ogni layer. Il modello permette di valutare la risposta
cinematica di una palificata costituita da un numero generico di pali, con geometria ed
inclinazione anch'essi generici. In particolare il modello fornisce il moto di fondazione
(foundation input motion) e le sollecitazioni nei pali, per il passaggio delle onde sismiche
nel terreno; queste ultime possono essere calcolate attraverso una analisi di risposta locale
monodimensionale o spaziale (2D e 3D) che tenga conto della reale stratigrafia del
deposito. Inoltre la condensazione dei gradi di libertà nel vincolo rigido della zattera
permette di ottenere direttamente le funzioni di impedenza dinamica del sitema terrenofondazione;
queste possono essere utilizzate insieme al moto di fondazione per eseguire
analisi di interazione terreno-struttura mediante un approccio per sottostrutture. Il
comportamento non lineare del terreno può essere incluso attraverso un approccio lineare
equivalente, calibrando rigidezza e smorzamento del terreno coerentemente con il livello di
deformazione raggiunto durante il moto. La validazione del modello è stata eseguita
attraverso analisi accurate, confrontando i risultati del modello, in termini di impedenze
dinamiche, parametri di risposta cinematica e sollecitazioni nei pali, con quelli ottenuti da
modellazione 3D agli elementi finiti o da modelli numerici più rigorosi disponibili in
letteratura. Il modello si è rilevato capace di cogliere la risposta orizzontale, verticale,
rotazionale e rototraslazionale di fondazioni con pali inclinati. Inoltre la risposta cinematica
del sistema terreno-fondazione e le sollecitazioni cinematiche nei pali, dovute alle
propagazione delle onde sismiche, sono colte con accurata precisione. In ultimo, al fine di
dimostrare la versatilità del modello per affrontare analisi di interazione terreno struttura, è
presentato un caso studio di una pila da ponte supportata da una fondazione su 4 pali
inclinati.In this thesis, a 3D analytical model for the dynamic analysis of inclined pile groups is presented. The analytical formulation is derived in the frequency domain assuming that both piles and soil behave linearly; in particular, soil is modelled as a viscoelastic horizontally layered half-space and piles as Euler-Bernoulli beams. Under the assumptions that no gap arises during the motion the compatibility condition between the pile and soil is assumed. The pile-soil-pile interaction and the radiation damping is taken into account by means of elastodynamic Green’s functions. The equilibrium equations are derived in weak from by means of the Lagrange D’Alembert principle and the solution is achieved numerically with a displacement based finite element approach modelling pile with beam finite elements. The presence of a rigid cap is accounted for by constraining the displacements of the pile heads. The formulation is simplified introducing the Baranov’s assumption, namely by schematizing the soil as infinite independent horizontal layers and using expressions available in the literature (Green’s functions) to describe the dynamics of each layer. The model allows evaluating the kinematic response of pile groups with generic number of piles, generic layout and piles inclination. In particular, the motion of the pile cap (foundation input motion) and the stress resultants in piles due to the passage of harmonic shear or seismic waves in the soil may be computed; in the latter case, the incoming free field may be derived from local one dimensional or spatial (2D or 3D) analysis depending on the complexity of the soil deposit. Furthermore, the condensation of the problem on the rigid cap dofs allows obtaining impedances of the pile group; these may be used, in conjunction with the foundation input motion, to perform consistent soilstructure interaction analyses according to the substructure approach. The nonlinear soil behaviour may be captured by considering linear equivalent approaches, calibrating stiffness and damping consistently with soil strain levels. The model validation is carried out performing accuracy analyses and comparing results, in terms of dynamic impedances, kinematic response parameters and pile stress resultants, with those furnished by 3D finite element models or available in the literature from more rigorous approaches. The model revealed able to capture the horizontal, vertical, rotational and coupled roto-translational response of pile foundations with inclined piles, obtained from refined and highly computational demanding 3D finite element models. Furthermore, the kinematic response of the soil-foundation system as well the kinematic stress resultants along the piles due to propagating (seismic) shear waves have been predicted with satisfactory accuracy. Finally, in order to demonstrate the model versatility in performing soil structure interaction analyses of structures, a case study constituted by a single bridge pier supported by a group of 4 inclined piles is presented.

La tesi ha come oggetto l’analisi computazionale e sperimentale di pali reticolari innovativi realizzati mediante la tecnologia di stampa 3D metallica riferita come Wire-and-Arc Additive Manufacturing.
Il progetto di questa tesi consiste nel design di un palo reticolare innovativo mediante software di disegno parametrico. Il palo ha una sezione tubolare “atomizzata” che forma una superficie esterna di tipo reticolare (“lattice structure”) costituita da elementi rettilinei continui. La continuità dei filamenti costituenti la struttura reticolare è garantita grazie alla tecnologia di realizzazione di tipo additivo per metalli di tipo Wire-and-Arc Additive Manufacturing che supera la richiesta di connessione di più elementi grazie alla realizzazione di un unico elemento tubolare di tipo reticolare. L’innovazione consiste nell’alta flessibilità di personalizzazione, in quanto la geometria è in grado di potersi adattare parametricamente a diverse esigenze generando un elemento ad hoc. Pluralità di ingombri, raffittimenti localizzati e sezioni di spessore variabile in altezza rendono possibili applicazioni diversificate.
La parte sperimentale della tesi mira a indagare l’elemento di intersezione delle aste che formano il palo reticolare in acciaio inossidabile stampato mediante la tecnologia Wire-and- Arc Additive Manufacturing.
Sono stati eseguiti test di laboratorio a trazione su elementi che simulano i nodi di collegamento presenti in un elemento reticolare stampato in 3D. Il fine ultimo delle sperimentazioni conseguite è l’analisi delle differenze e/o similitudini nel comportamento sotto sollecitazione meccanica dei nodi quali punti critici di un elemento strutturale.

This study is an investigation of the role of the "little magazine" flriAZ, published in the early 1960s in Greece, as well as the work of its contributors. By experimenting with the use or abuse, expansion or minimisation of literary language, the group of flriAZ contributed to the constitution of the Greek 1960s and offered an alternative paradigm of a peripheral Western neo-avant-garde. The first chapter offers a brief account of the political and cultural background to the magazine's publication. The second chapter explores the tradition of the avant-garde "little magazines", the developments of Greek and international alternative press in the 1960s and the features of flaAz as a "little magazine". The third chapter reviews the developments of international and Greek I modernism and the avant-garde and examines the debates on literary modernity in the Greek criticism of the 1960s. The fourth chapter considers the work of Manto Aravantinou, Nikos Stangos and Kostas Tachtsis, three contributors of IlaAz whose literature introduced innovative oral and textual strategies. Chapter five explores the ways Alexandros Schinas views language and literature in his meta- fictional literary work. It examines his experimental techniques. analyses his "hyperlexist" contribution to IlaAz and his views on the language question. Finally, the sixth chapter explores the background of the magazine's "anti-realist generation". It examines their work within the context of international avantgarde and analyses their contributions to the reformation of the literary and cultural attitude during the 1960s.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is a study of one prominent meditative path-structure in early Buddhism. The path-structure is called the 'Stereotyped Structure of the Path' (henceforth SSP) in this study, as it is a list that contains more than twenty items of formulas that are composed in a step-by-step order and according to a definite pattern. The list sequentially presents the stages from initial meditative and related disciplinary practice through to the result of Buddhist final liberation. This thesis is divided into two parts, both of which are based on a comparative study of the different versions of the texts that contain the SSP list. These texts include the materials transmitted in Pali, Sanskrit, and Chinese sources. The four Nikayas, the four Agamas and the Sarighabhedavastua re our primary concern. Part I examines the appearances of the SSP list as a whole entity, while Part II examines the members of the list individually. Many forms of the list are found throughout the early Buddhist canon. The most common form of the list presents a complete and longest version, which occurs in considerable numbers of text in DN/DĀ and MN/MĀ. There are also other forms of the list scattered in many other texts. Some of them have a shortened form in terms of the length, which present a partial form of the list with items missing. In a number of cases these shorter lists are combined with items that are not seen in the standard SSP list. All these accounts are examined in Part I, and a thorough comparison is undertaken. The applications of these lists and their broad distribution across various texts have significant implication. The wide-ranging use of the SSP list brings us to consider whether we could discover the origin of the SSP list in these numerous instances. Through a careful investigation several possibilities have been considered. Part II is dedicated to a comprehensive study on the components of the SSP list, namely the SSP formulas. Ten of such formulas are examined in full detail and others are summarized in the Appendices. The presentation and content of the formulas reveal interesting points while doing a comparative study through many different texts. The implications of the variation as well as the similarity of the formulas in various texts indicate some significant points. They imply information regarding how the fixed units of expression have been applied successfully, in terms of the transmission of the list. These fixed units from the SSP formulas work well not only due to a certain level of flexibility in their employment but also under a remarkable fixity of the arrangement. The conclusion drawn from this suggests that this fixity, which is in fact governed by the underlined fundamental principle of the path-structure, has lead the SSP list - as seen all over the canon - to a highly consistent and coherent presentation. This is so regardless of the great deal of variations found in many occurrences. This message is in turn of crucial importance in assisting our understanding of the nature of the composition and transmission of Buddhist oral literature.

Full textAbstract:
GeólogoEl Campo Volcánico Pali Aike se ubica en la Patagonia Argentina, justo en el límite con Chile, entre los 46º y 52º S y está constituido por una serie de volcanes monogenéticos de composición basáltica, principalmente. Es común encontrar en las lavas de los volcanes, xenolitos en facies de granate y espinela, que representan el manto que subyace esta región. El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar la petrogénesis de siete xenolitos de la región de Pali Aike, con un especial enfoque en la zona de transición entre granate y espinela. Para ello se utilizan herramientas como microscopio petrográfico, microscopio electrónico de barrido y microsonda electrónica. Los xenolitos estudiados están constituidos por olivino, clinopiroxeno, ortopiroxeno, espinela, granate y en menor medida sulfuros. Se equilibraron tanto en facies de espinela como en facies de granate. A partir de la petrografía y el análisis químico de los minerales se plantea que su historia evidencia procesos de fusión parcial, diferentes grados de deformación a altas temperaturas, metasomatismo y re-equilibrio en estado sólido. El origen de los sulfuros ubicados en venillas intersticiales y en zonas de reacción se consideró como mixto, originados tanto a partir de diferentes eventos de fusión parcial como a partir de fluidos/fundidos metasomáticos ricos en Fe y con menores cantidades de P y Na. Un agente metasomático con altas concentraciones de Al, Ti y Fe, y menores concentraciones de P y Na afectó levemente a los xenolitos ultramáficos. No se puede relacionar el evento metasomático con la zona de transición granate-espinela, por lo que se plantea que es un evento de mucha mayor escala. Se interpreta que todas las muestras estudiadas se formaron en el manto litosférico bajo la región de Pali Aike, pero a diferentes profundidades. De este modo, la zona de transición de granate-espinela se pudo restringir a unas temperaturas entre 1200 y 1450ºC y a una presión de 24 kbar, aproximadamente, lo que correspondería a una profundidad de 75 km.

La presente tesi si inserisce nell’ambito di un programma di ricerca e sviluppo riguardante l’impiego della piattaforma CAE Salome Meca (Code Aster) nel campo della modellazione geotecnica. L’oggetto alla base del lavoro è stato quello di costruire un modello agli elementi finiti con tale programma di calcolo, capace di analizzare la risposta carico-cedimento di un palo, fino a rottura. Tale lavoro è stato svolto con riferimento a un caso studio reale di una fondazione su pali di una civile abitazione costruita nel comune di Bologna.
In questo contesto il primo tema su cui ci è concentrati è stata l’imposizione delle condizioni iniziali. Questo aspetto assume rilevanza soprattutto nel caso di pali trivellati come quelli del caso studio, che in fase di costruzione portano un disturbo nel terreno circostante e una riduzione dello stato tensionale. Il rimaneggiamento nell’intorno del palo impone la scelta di un idoneo elemento di interfaccia palo-terreno, ai fini di una corretta modellazione del problema. In questa tesi si sono in particolare costruiti modelli con elementi thin layer e con due tipi di elementi giunto forniti da Code Aster (JOINT_MECA_RUPT e JOINT_MECA_FROT).
L’ultimo aspetto che influisce sui risultati del modello è il legame costitutivo usato per descrivere il comportamento del terreno. Nello studio proposto, si è scelto di lavorare sia alle tensioni totali con un legame alla Tresca, sia alle tensioni efficaci con un legame alla Mohr Coulomb.
Individuato il modello che meglio descrive il caso studio è quindi stato calcolato il carico di rottura del palo. La parte restante della tesi vede infine un confronto di questo carico ultimo con quello derivato dalle prove di carico a disposizione (metodo di Chin) e dalle formule statiche. Si è infine concluso con un confronto dei risultati sulla base delle norme tecniche vigenti NTC18.

Full textAbstract:
Negli ultimi decenni si è assistito ad un crescente utilizzo dei micropali, sia come fondazioni di nuove costruzioni in zona sismica, che per il retrofit di fondazioni esistenti danneggiate. È dunque essenziale approfondire la conoscenza del loro comportamento dinamico sotto carichi orizzontali. Vista la carenza di dati sperimentali, è stata eseguita una campagna prove su due micropali singoli verticali e su un gruppo di quattro micropali inclinati realizzati in un deposito alluvionale. I micropali investigati sfruttano la tecnologia Tubfix.
Sono state eseguite prove di vibrazione ambientale, prove di impatto, prove di rilascio (vibrazioni libere) e prove in condizioni di vibrazioni forzate. Inoltre sono state eseguite prove di carico ciclico sui micropali singoli, per valutare l’evoluzione della rigidezza orizzontale della testa del palo con il numero di cicli e con lo sviluppo di fenomeni non lineari (tra tutti, il distacco all’interfaccia micropalo-terreno). Per stimare l’influenza della tipologia e dell’intensità del carico, delle modalità esecutive e dell’inclinazione, i risultati delle prove dinamiche sono presentati in termini di frequenze fondamentali, smorzamento e forme modali ottenute dagli accelerometri sulla testa del palo e dagli estensimetri disposti lungo il fusto. Vengono inoltre proposte funzioni di impedenza derivate sperimentalmente sia per i micropali verticali che per il gruppo.
I dati sperimentali sono stati confrontati con i risultati ottenuti da diversi modelli opportunamente calibrati: dapprima un approccio teorico per l’interazione dinamica 3D di pali singoli ed in gruppo, verticali o inclinati, è stato utilizzato per simulare le prove di impatto. Successivamente sono stati sviluppati modelli 3D, attraverso un codice commerciale agli Elementi Finiti, con diverse caratteristiche in termini di proprietà del terreno, del micropalo e dell’interfaccia, che permettessero di stimare il comportamento dei micropali in campo lineare e non lineare sotto forze dinamiche orizzontali.Micropiles are increasingly used both as new foundation system for buildings in seismic zone, and for the retrofit of existing structures damaged by earthquakes. Hence, it is essential to enhance the knowledge of their dynamic behaviour under horizontal loading. Given the lack of dynamic field tests data, an experimental campaign is carried out, including both two single vertical micropiles and a group of 4 inclined micropiles embedded in alluvial soils. Ambient vibration, impact load, free vibration and forced vibration tests are performed to evaluate the micropiles dynamic behaviour under small to large deformations. Moreover, two-way cyclic horizontal load tests are carried out on the single vertical micropiles to evaluate the evolution of micropile head horizontal stiffness with the number of loading cycles, and with the development of non linear phenomena (among all, the opening of a gap at the soil-micropile interface). To evaluate the influence of loading intensity and typology, execution steps and inclination on the behaviour of micropiles, results are presented in terms of fundamental frequencies, damping and modal shapes obtained from accelerometers at the pile head and strain gages along the shaft. Impedances functions are also experimentally derived for the single micropiles and the group. The experimental data are then compared with numerical results obtained exploiting different models, properly calibrated: a 3-D theoretical approach for the dynamic interaction analysis of vertical and inclined micropile groups is adopted to simulate impact load tests on the single micropiles and on the group. Moreover, different 3-D FE models are developed in a commercial code, having different properties in terms of soil, pile and interface behaviour, to evaluate the response of micropiles in the linear and non-linear range, under dynamic horizontal forces.

Background: Food allergy affects an estimated 8% of children and 3% of adults in the United States. Food‐allergic individuals increasingly use the web for medical information. We sought to determine the educational quality of food allergy YouTube videos.
Methods: We performed a YouTube search using keywords “food allergy” and “food allergies”. The 300 most viewed videos were included and analyzed for characteristics, source, and content. Source was further classified as healthcare provider, alternative medicine provider, patient, company, media, and professional society. A scoring system (FA‐DQS) was created to evaluate quality (−10 to +34 points). Negative points were assigned for misleading information. Eight reviewers scored each video independently.
Results: Three hundred videos were analyzed, with a median of 6351.50 views, 19 likes, and 1 dislike. More video presenters were female (54.3%). The most common type of video source was alternative medicine provider (26.3%). Alternative treatments included the following: water fast, juicing, Ayurveda, apple cider, yoga, visualization, and sea moss. Controversial diagnostics included kinesiology, IgG testing, and pulse test. Almost half of the videos depicted a non‐IgE‐mediated reaction (49.0%).Videos by professional societies had the highest FA‐DQS (7.27). Scores for videos by professional societies were significantly different from other sources (P < .001). There was a high degree of agreement among reviewers (ICC = 0.820; P < .001).
Conclusion: YouTube videos on food allergy frequently recommend controversial diagnostics and commonly depict non‐IgE‐mediated reactions. There is a need for high‐quality, evidence‐based, educational videos on food allergy.

THE LONE PALM is a noir novel set in a timeless Bay Area city. At nineteen, Colin Spector is a hot-shot crooner at the Lone Palm, a nightclub owned by the Christos' crime family, headed by Cephalus "the Old Man" Christos and his ne'er-do-well son, Gabriel. When Colin falls for Gabriel's girl, a stripper named Zoe, Gabriel orders the singer's vocal cords cut and has him framed for a crime he didn't commit. After seven years in prison, Colin is manipulated into working for his former tormenter. Gabriel is now estranged from his father, who has branched into the world of politics. Working as mob muscle, Colin investigates the Old Man and delves into the whereabouts of his former love. The book draws on the tradition of noir novels like Jim Thompson's After Dark My Sweet and Raymond Chandler's The Long Goodbye, with their seedy city streets and shady characters. The novel is divided into three parts, the first and third told in omniscient third person to depict the layered world of the novel, while the longest, central section is told in Colin's first person voice to elucidate the internal struggles and actions he takes on his road to redemption.

Estudos recentes mostram que o nanocompósito Fe3O4/PANI tem propriedades magnéticas interessantes, como oscilações sustentadas na magnetização, que foram interpretadas como o resultado de uma reação química oscilante que faz que uma fração do conteúdo de magnetita seja transformada em maghemita e vice-versa [1]. Neste trabalho fizemos estudos adicionais. Variamos parâmetros como temperatura, tipo e concentração de ácidos, além de usar como ponto de partida óxidos comerciais e de tamanho maior. Produzimos ainda nanocompósitos Fe2O3/PANI sob as mesmas condições usando Fe2O3 ao invés de Fe3O4. Para os nanocompósitos produzidos estudamos as propriedades magnéticas e estruturais e a cinética química da reação através da magnetização da solução precursora. Os nanocompósitos Fe3O4/PANI e Fe2O3/PANI foram preparados sob UV (365nm) a diferentes tempos de exposição e sob aquecimento (40, 60 e 80 °C), mediante a dispersão das nanopartículas de magnetita e maghemita em uma solução ácida de anilina. Para o estudo de suas propriedades foram usadas medidas de difração de raios X (DRX), análises termogravimétricas e de calorimetria de varredura diferencial (TGA e DSC). Para a caracterização magnética foi usado um magnetômetro de amostra vibrante (VSM) para obter curvas de histereses, plot de Henkel, verificação das mudanças na transição de Verwey e estudo da cinética química a partir da magnetização da solução líquida precursora dos nanocompósitos. Este último resultado foi analisado segundo modelo presa-predador de Lotka Volterra, um modelo simples, qualitativo, para esse sistema relativamente complexo e caótico. As curvas de histerese dos nanocompósitos sintetizados a 40 ºC mostraram oscilações na magnetização; enquanto que para 60 e 80 °C sob UV mostraram um decréscimo acentuado na magnetização máxima com o tempo de reação. As curvas do plot de Henkel mostraram que predominam efeitos de interação de natureza desmagnetizante. Foi observada a transição Verwey, mas deslocada da temperatura típica para os nanocompósitos sintetizados a 40 ºC, sugerindo que isso seja uma evidência das mudanças do número de oxidação do Fe provocados pela polimerização e radiação UV. Finalmente, usando o modelo Lotka-Volterra e suas propriedades matemáticas intrínsecas, verificamos o efeito nos parâmetros do modelo provocados pela mudança de alguns parâmetros importantes da reação. A caracterização estrutural mediante DRX mostraram que todas as nanopartículas são cristalinas exceto para as amostras de 80 ºC após de 1 h de reação. Os difratogramas para as amostras de Fe3O4/PANI tratadas a 60 ºC mostraram um deslocamento dos picos característicos indicando a transformação magnetita/maghemita/magnetita. Aparece também uma nova fase cristalina, a qual foi indexada como hematita. Por outro lado, não há variações muito significativas do tamanho de cristalito para Fe3O4/PANI, enquanto que para os nanocompósitos Fe2O3/PANI tratados a 60 ºC há um leve aumento no tamanho de cristalito com o tempo de síntese, assim como com o aumento na temperatura. A análise TGA e DSC mostrou que a polimerização é favorecida pelo calor e pelo tempo de reação. Além disso, conforme o esperado pelo modelo proposto por A. C. V de Araújo e col. [1], a polimerização para os nanocompósitos Fe2O3/PANI é mais acelerada que Fe3O4/PANI.
Recent studies show that the Fe3O4/PANI nanocomposite has interesting magnetic properties, such as sustained oscillations in magnetization, which have been interpreted as the result of an oscillating chemical reaction that causes a fraction of the magnetite content to be transformed into maghemite and vice-versa [1]. In this work we did additional studies. Where we had changed parameters such as temperature, type and concentration of acids, as well as using commercial oxides with larger sizes. We have also produced Fe2O3/PANI nanocomposites under the same conditions using Fe2O3 instead of Fe3O4. For the produced nanocomposites, we have studied the magnetic and structural properties as well as the chemical kinetics of the reaction through the magnetization of the precursor solution. The Fe3O4/PANI and Fe2O3/PANI nanocomposites were prepared under UV (365 nm) at different exposure times and under heating (40, 60 and 80 °C) by dispersing the nanoparticles of magnetite and maghemite in an acid solution of aniline. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry (TGA and DSC) measurements were used to study their properties. For the magnetic characterization, a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) was used to obtain hysteresis curves, Henkel plot, verify changes in the Verwey transition and study the chemical kinetics from the magnetization of the liquid precursor solution of the nanocomposites. This last result was analyzed according to the prey-predator model of Lotka-Volterra, a simple, qualitative model for this relatively complex and chaotic system. The hysteresis curves of the nanocomposites synthesized at 40 ºC showed oscillations in the magnetization; while for 60 and 80 °C under UV showed a marked decrease in the maximum magnetization as function of the reaction time. Henkel plot curves showed that the interaction effects have a predominant demagnetizing nature. Verwey transition was observed, but displaced from the typical temperature for the 40 ºC synthesized nanocomposites, suggesting that this is an evidence of the changes in the oxidation number of Fe caused by polymerization and UV radiation. Finally, using the Lotka-Volterra model and its intrinsic mathematical properties, we verified the effect on the parameters of the model caused by the change of some important parameters of the reaction. The structural characterization by XRD showed that all the nanoparticles are crystalline except for the 80 ºC samples after 1 h of reaction. The diffractograms for the Fe3O4/PANI samples treated at 60 °C showed a shift of the characteristic peaks indicating a magnetite/maghemite/magnetite transformation. A new crystalline phase was observed, which was indexed as hematite. On the other hand, there are not significant variations of the crystallite size for Fe3O4/PANI, whereas for the Fe2O3/PANI nanocomposites treated at 60 °C there is a slight increase in the crystallite size over time as well as with the increase in temperature. The TGA and DSC analysis showed that polymerization is favored by heat and reaction time. In addition, as expected by the model proposed by A. C. V de Araújo et al. [1], the polymerization for the Fe2O3/PANI nanocomposites is more accelerated than for Fe3O4/PANI.
