Canaletto’s paintings open a new window on the relative sea-level rise in Venice     

Dario Camuffo 《Journal of Cultural Heritage》2001,2(4):92

The paintings by Canaletto (1697–1768), made with the help of a camera obscura, are just like real photographs, documenting as they do the Venice of the XVIII century with an accurate reproduction of all the details. The brown–green front left by the Laminaria, an alga living between the high and low tide, constitutes a precise biological indication of the average level of the high tide. By comparing the level of this front at Canaletto’s time with the present level, we can calculate/discover the relative sea level rise which has occurred in the last two and a half centuries.  相似文献

Press releases and email notices increase local and global visibility of a small medical journal     

Dario Sambunjak 《Learned Publishing》2006,19(4):267-271

To increase its visibility among the general public and the international scientific community, the Croatian Medical Journal (CMJ), a small journal from the so‐called scientific periphery, introduced a media strategy of sending press releases to journalists and email notices to the newsdesk of a high‐profile international scientific journal. Subsequent news coverage and the positive response of journalists show that press releases and targeted email notices increased international visibility of articles published in a small scientific journal, and improved communication with journalists as mediators of scientific information to the general public.  相似文献   

The IR Has Two Faces: Positioning Institutional Repositories for Success     

John Novak  Annette Day 《New Review of Academic Librarianship》2018,24(2):157-174

This article describes the ongoing efforts at University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) Libraries to evolve the role of the institutional repository (IR) and to effectively position it within the context of the Libraries’ collections, research support, and scholarly communication services. A major component of this process is re-examining the fundamental aims of the IR and aligning it to the Libraries and the campus strategic goals. The authors situate UNLV Libraries’ experience within the context of the current literature to provide background and reasoning for our decision to pursue two, at times conflicting, aims for the IR: one for scholarly communication and another for research administration.  相似文献   

Specific tackling situations affect the biomechanical demands experienced by rugby union players     

Elena Seminati  Dario Cazzola  Ezio Preatoni  Grant Trewartha 《Sports biomechanics / International Society of Biomechanics in Sports》2017,16(1):58-75

Tackling in Rugby Union is an open skill which can involve high-speed collisions and is the match event associated with the greatest proportion of injuries. This study aimed to analyse the biomechanics of rugby tackling under three conditions: from a stationary position, with dominant and non-dominant shoulder, and moving forward, with dominant shoulder. A specially devised contact simulator, a 50-kg punch bag instrumented with pressure sensors, was translated towards the tackler (n = 15) to evaluate the effect of laterality and tackling approach on the external loads absorbed by the tackler, on head and trunk motion, and on trunk muscle activities. Peak impact force was substantially higher in the stationary dominant (2.84 ± 0.74 kN) than in the stationary non-dominant condition (2.44 ± 0.64 kN), but lower than in the moving condition (3.40 ± 0.86 kN). Muscle activation started on average 300 ms before impact, with higher activation for impact-side trapezius and non-impact-side erector spinae and gluteus maximus muscles. Players’ technique for non-dominant-side tackles was less compliant with current coaching recommendations in terms of cervical motion (more neck flexion and lateral bending in the stationary non-dominant condition) and players could benefit from specific coaching focus on non-dominant-side tackles.  相似文献   

Ministerielle Aufsichtskompetenz und Ersatzvornahme     

Manfred Novak 《Zeitschrift für Hochschulrecht, Hochschulmanagement und Hochschulpolitik: zfhr》2011,10(6):231-237

Die ministerielle Aufsichtskompetenz über das Organhandeln an Universit?ten hat im Zuge des Ausbaus der universit?ren Selbstverwaltung, seit dem UOG 1993, eine ma?gebliche Stellenwert?nderung erfahren. Diese beschr?nkt sich nicht auf die formale Zurücknahme der ministeriellen Aufsicht auf eine reine Rechtsaufsicht, sondern ist auch im inhaltlichen Konnex mit der vom UG intendierten neuen Selbstverantwortung der Universit?ten, bei Aufgabenerfüllung und Bestellungsakten, zu sehen. Dabei l?sst sich, hinsichtlich Gehalt und Selbstverst?ndnis ministerieller Verantwortung über die Universit?ten, im intentionalen Wechselspiel von Rücknahmepostulat und Determinierungswillen, eine nicht unbetr?chtliche Unbestimmtheit zwischen ministeriellem K?nnen, Wollen und Sollen bemerken.  相似文献   

Integrated reflectography and thermography for wooden paintings diagnostics     

Dario Ambrosini  Claudia Daffara  Roberta Di Biase  Domenica Paoletti  Luca Pezzati  Roberto Bellucci  Francesca Bettini 《Journal of Cultural Heritage》2010,11(2):196-204

The need of inspecting a masterpiece of fine art without affecting it led to develop non destructive methods of investigation. In the field of art conservation, several diagnostic techniques are being widely used to inspect works of art, giving different but complementary results. The present work deals with two of these methods, reflectography and thermography, both techniques examining objects in the infrared spectrum but in different wavelength bands. Their integrated data potentially provide a powerful tool for mapping hidden features and alterations of artworks. This was confirmed during the inspections of a 13th century panel painting under restoration at the Opificio delle Pietre Dure laboratories (Florence, Italy). A graphical user interface was also designed to aid operators in the field of conservation dealing with the results of the two IR methods. Many options such as image adjustment, comparison, overlaying and transparency variation, in addition to thermographic elaborations, have been made available to users. Imaging data integration provides a multi-layered and multi-spectral representation of the painting that yields a comprehensive diagnosis confirms the anomalies individuation and reduces the ambiguities of information coming from a single diagnostic method.  相似文献   

The 2011 Benjamin Franklin Medal in computer and cognitive science presented to John R. Anderson     

Dario D. Salvucci 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2014

John R. Anderson is an international leader in the computational representation and simulation of human cognition. He is credited as having developed the first “cognitive architecture”—a computational framework for specifying both the abilities and limitations of human behavior. Anderson has also made fundamental contributions in applying cognitive architectures to practical problems, most notably in the development of intelligent tutoring systems: computer-based tutors that continually infer the cognitive state of the student, striving to determine what the student knows and does not know, and targeting further instruction accordingly. For these achievements, Anderson was awarded the 2011 Benjamin Franklin Medal in Computer and Cognitive Science.  相似文献   

Integration and Physical Education: A Review of Research     

Risto Harri Juhani Marttinen  Gabriella McLoughlin  Ray Fredrick III  Dario Novak 《Quest (Human Kinetics)》2017,69(1):37-49

The Common Core State Standards Initiative has placed an increased focus on mathematics and English language arts. A relationship between physical activity and academic achievement is evident, but research on integration of academic subjects with physical education is still unclear. This literature review examined databases for the years 2004–2013, focusing on physical education or physical activity and core academic subjects for school-aged youth. 23 studies were found that focused on integration and physical education that met the inclusion criteria. These were from 16 different publication outlets, ranging in research methods, country, and population. This review provides information on the status of integration and physical education. Since classroom teachers are increasingly being encouraged to incorporate core subjects with physical activity into their classes, it would be appropriate for physical educators to understand the desired outcomes of integration of core subjects before attempting its implementation.  相似文献
