Festival 

The “Cello & Music” Festival was held for the first time in 2000, and cello and chamber music courses were organized. The success of this initiative led to the continuation of this experience, giving rise to a project that, through the music, intensifies the relationship between border peoples thanks to music and cultural meetings in Trieste, Gorizia, Udine, Nova Gorica and Tolmin. This project aims at promoting and enhancing the territory and especially the hilly area of Collio as well as the area along the border from Duino Aurisina to Cividale del Friuli. In this regard, many areas and places are still largely unknown and yet especially attractive, and could become suitable tourist destinations. The Festival programme includes courses on woodwinds, percussions and stringed instruments, chamber music, concerts of classical music and other genres, Italian, Slovenian and European amateur and young orchestras, and the setting up of a professional orchestra made up of the same artists who have participated in the Festival and come from various European countries. Undoubtedly music, more than any other art, can communicate through its universal language with any human being, thus overcoming racial and ethnic diversities. Thanks to this form of art and the interdisciplinary musical events, young people can come closer to each other in their musical education and development, but especially in their personal and human growth. This project ensures an international meeting of famous musicians and professionals, thus providing music scholars and classical music experts with an opportunity for comparison and a meeting point.

Preferably, the moieties are selected such that the melting temperatures range between 110 and 150 DEG C, especially between 120 and 145 DEG C. Preferably, polyamide 12 and/or polyamide 11 is/are combined with only one of the two other polyamides. The invention further relates to a method for producing the interlining material and the use thereof.
Ball convergence comparison between three iterative methods in Banach space under hypothese only on the first derivative

We present a convergence ball comparison between three iterative methods for approximating a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting. The convergence ball and error estimates are given for these methods under hypotheses only on the first Frechet derivative in contrast to earlier studies such as Adomian (1994) 1, Babajee et?al. (2008) 13, Cordero and Torregrosa (2007) 17, Cordero et?al. 18, Darvishi and Barati (2007) 19, using hypotheses reaching up to the fourth Frechet derivative although only the first derivative appears in these methods. This way we expand the applicability of these methods. Numerical examples are also presented in this study.
Analysis of satellite and in situ ground deformation data integrated by the SISTEM approach: The April 3, 2010 earthquake along the Pernicana fault (Mt. Etna - Italy) case study

Abstract Etna is known worldwide as one of the most studied and monitored active volcanoes. Flank instability along the eastern and southern portions of Mt. Etna has been observed and measured thanks to geodetic networks and InSAR data analysis. The spreading area is bordered to the north by the east–west Pernicana Fault System (PFS) whose dynamics is often linked with the eruptive activity, as recently observed during the 2002–2003 eruption. A seismic sequence occurred from April 2–3, 2010, along the PFS with very shallow (a few hundred meters) mainshocks of magnitude 4.3 and 3.6. Explosions and ash emissions at the summit craters followed this swarm culminating a few days later (April 7–8). Despite their small magnitude, the earthquakes caused damage and significant surface fracturing along the PFS. In order to investigate and measure the deformations in the near field of the earthquakes, the SISTEM integration approach has been exploited. The SISTEM enabled integrating geodetic in situ ground deformation measurements (GPS and leveling) with satellite interferometric measurements (ENVISAT and ALOS), in order to obtain high resolution 3D displacement maps, allowing to overcome the limitations of each technique and take advantage of the particular features of each of them. The integrated ground deformation field evidenced that the medium behave elastically. We inverted the SISTEM results using an optimization algorithm based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) in order to model the kinematics of the PFS associated to seismic swarm; the results are in good agreement with the field evidence and improved the knowledge on the kinematics of the PFS and Mt. Etna's unstable flank.
AIRCRAFT LANDING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

A method for controlling an aircraft includes storing data aboard the aircraft. The data include the relative positions of radar targets disposed within a region adjacent to the runway. The region is scanned with a radar aboard the aircraft to obtain data corresponding to the relative positions of radar reflections from the region, including reflections from the radar targets. The data corresponding to the radar targets is distinguished from the data corresponding to the radar reflections from the region using correlation techniques. The position and attitude of the aircraft relative to the runway is then assessed using the stored data and the data corresponding to the radar targets. The position and attitude of the aircraft relative to the runway is also evaluated using an independent navigation system. The difference between the assessed position and attitude and the evaluated position and attitude is then used to control the aircraft.
Blind processing: Securing data against system administrators

Multi-owner systems such as power grid need information from all parties to operate efficiently. However, in general, information sharing is limited by market and other constraints. In addition, the emerging problem of demand side management in distribution systems as a part of “smarter grid” efforts, secure communication and execution between the utilities and the customers is required to ensure the privacy. In this paper, we propose blind processing, a novel communication and execution approach for entities that compete with each other but need to cooperate for the overall good of the system. Our goal is to allow information exchange between system components with protection mechanisms against everyone including system administrators. Shielding information will prevent gaining access to the sensitive data while providing a complete picture of the whole system in computations. Such a security mechanism can be provided by employing the functionality of Trusted Computing, a security technology that utilizes hardware and software modules to improve the trustworthiness of a system.
An extensible framework for multicore response time analysis

In this paper, we introduce a multicore response time analysis (MRTA) framework, which decouples response time analysis from a reliance on context-independent WCET values. Instead, the analysis formulates response times directly from the demands placed on different hardware resources. The MRTA framework is extensible to different multicore architectures, with a variety of arbitration policies for the common interconnects, and different types and arrangements of local memory. We instantiate the framework for single level local data and instruction memories (cache or scratchpads), for a variety of memory bus arbitration policies, including: Round-Robin, FIFO, Fixed-Priority, Processor-Priority, and TDMA, and account for DRAM refreshes. The MRTA framework provides a general approach to timing verification for multicore systems that is parametric in the hardware configuration and so can be used at the architectural design stage to compare the guaranteed levels of real-time performance that can be obtained with different hardware configurations. We use the framework in this way to evaluate the performance of multicore systems with a variety of different architectural components and policies. These results are then used to compose a predictable architecture, which is compared against a reference architecture designed for good average-case behaviour. This comparison shows that the predictable architecture has substantially better guaranteed real-time performance, with the precision of the analysis verified using cycle-accurate simulation.
238U, 232Th content and radon exhalation rate in some Egyptian building materials

Abstract In controlling natural radiation exposure for the residents of dwellings, it is necessary to determine the levels of natural radioactivity (external exposure) and radon exhalation rate (internal exposure) from building materials. In this paper uranium ( 238 U) and thorium ( 232 Th) content were measured in different building material samples using two different techniques: first, using Jeol high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer HR-ICP-MS (plasmax2); and, secondly, using solid state nuclear track detectors SSNTDs. There was a good agreement between the measurements of uranium and thorium with both methods. Exhalation rate and emanation coefficient of radon in several building material samples were determined using LR-115 polymeric nuclear track detectors. Radon exhalation rate varied from; 11.83 mBq m −2  h −1 in Red Clay Brick to 36.86 mBq m −2  h −1 in Granite. A series of equations were used to estimate indoor radon exposure and annual effective doses in some models typical room of Egyptian house.

The copolymer is mainly characterized in that 30 mol% to 90 mol% of the carboxylic acid functions are in salified form prior to the precipitation polymerization, the solvent used for the precipitation polymerization comprises at least one alcohol comprising from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and the copolymer is obtained in the absence of water-soluble non-ionic monomers.
Associations of homelessness and residential mobility with length of stay after acute psychiatric admission

A small number of patient-level variables have replicated associations with the length of stay (LOS) of psychiatric inpatients. Although need for housing has often been identified as a cause of delayed discharge, there has been little research into the associations between LOS and homelessness and residential mobility (moving to a new home), or the magnitude of these associations compared to other exposures.Cross-sectional study of 4885 acute psychiatric admissions to a mental health NHS Trust serving four South London boroughs. Data were taken from a comprehensive repository of anonymised electronic patient records. Analysis was performed using log-linear regression.Residential mobility was associated with a 99% increase in LOS and homelessness with a 45% increase. Schizophrenia, other psychosis, the longest recent admission, residential mobility, and some items on the Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS), especially ADL impairment, were also associated with increased LOS. Informal admission, drug and alcohol or other non-psychotic diagnosis and a high HoNOS self-harm score reduced LOS. Including residential mobility in the regression model produced the same increase in the variance explained as including diagnosis; only legal status was a stronger predictor.Homelessness and, especially, residential mobility account for a significant part of variation in LOS despite affecting a minority of psychiatric inpatients; for these people, the effect on LOS is marked. Appropriate policy responses may include attempts to avert the loss of housing in association with admission, efforts to increase housing supply and the speed at which it is made available, and reforms of payment systems to encourage this.
Temporary CO2 Capture Shut Down: Implications on Low Pressure Steam Turbine Design and Efficiency

The Natural gas Combined Cycle (NGCC) with post combustion capture using liquid solvents may in some cases be of interest to design with a flexible steam bottoming cycle, so that it can operate both with and without CO2 capture. It is then important that the choice of the low pressure (LP) steam turbine exhaust size is made accordingly. The paper describes why a flexible NGCC requires a LP steam turbine with smaller exhaust than the corresponding NGCC without CO2 capture, and how this will affect the LP turbine exhaust loss and NGCC process efficiency. Handling large variations in LP steam flow is in fact wellknown technology in combined heat and power (CHP) plants, and the use of 3D simulation tools can further help making the best LP steam turbine design choice.

Current Large-Scale US Biofuel Potential from Microalgae Cultivated in Photobioreactors

Current assessments of the commercial viability and productivity potential of microalgae biofuels have been forced to extrapolate small-scale research data. The resulting analyses are not representative of microalgae cultivation and processing at industrial scale. To more accurately assess the current near-term realizable, large-scale microalgae productivity potential in the USA, this paper presents a model of microalgae growth derived from industrial-scale outdoor photobioreactor growth data. This model is combined with thermal models of the photobioreactor system and 15 years of hourly historical weather data from 864 locations in the USA to more accurately assess the current productivity potential of microalgae. The resulting lipid productivity potential of Nannochloropsis is presented in the form of a map that incorporates various land availability models to illustrate the near-term feasible cultivation locations and corresponding productivity potentials for the USA. The discussion focuses on a comparison of model results with productivity potentials currently reported in literature, an assessment demonstrating the scale of Department of Energy 2030 alternative fuel goals, and a critical comparison of productivity potential in several key regions of the USA.
Internal dynamics and magnetic field generation in rocky bodies: planets and large moons in the solar system

The Earth is a peculiar planet in the solar system: it hosts life and possesses a very active interior. However, it is not the only rocky body to present evidence of internal dynamics: all the rocky planets - except Venus - and some moons have been proved to generate or to have generated a magnetic field. Recent space missions have improved our knowledge of the evolution of these magnetic fields, and direct constraints on the internal structure of some rocky planets are expected in the very next few years. New hypotheses emerged recently to explain the early times of the Earth’s magnetic field, when no thermo-chemical convection could power the geodynamo, giving us new perspectives on Earth’s history. By combining advances in both Earth and planetary sciences, InDyMag aims to better understand the internal dynamics of the Earth and other rocky bodies in our solar system. It will investigate the generation and long-term evolution of their magnetic fields with Earth as a reference, and compare it Mercury, Venus, and Mars, and the Earth's Moon and Ganymede. The fellow, expert in geodynamics and modeling, will develop a model for the time evolution of temperature and composition profiles in metallic cores, exploring a large range of parameters including planet's size, composition and formation history. The crystallization regimes and the initial profiles will be investigated in detail, exploring the full range of dynamics possible in an iron core. Thanks to the expertise of the researchers at the host LPG on space missions and magnetic field measurements, InDyMag will combine observations to geodynamical models to constrain the physical parameters of planetary cores. InDyMag will unravel what is universal in planetary magnetic fields, and what is planet-specific. Its results will be disseminated to the general and specialist audience and will lay the foundations to explore planetary magnetic fields at the exoplanet level.
An cross-border glacier monitoring system for the South Tyrol region

The proposed project offers an innovative concept for an operational and supraregional monitoring of glaciers. Special attention will be paid to the needs of stakeholders from the areas of hydrology, natural hazards, water and energy supply, agriculture and tourism. To implement this, existing programmes for the monitoring glaciers in the region will be coordinated and continued as consistant as possible. Those programmes with detailed measurements on indivicual glaciers will be complemented with innovative remote sensing data for all glaciers within the study area,  which will deliver detailed information on recent glacier changes. Through the integration of satellite data with high repeat times, an operational near-time monitoring system will be developed, which will continuously deliver data for decision-makers and stakeholders in the affected areas. The project will enhance the existing time-series of glacier measurements through the additionally collected data, while the development of new methods and procedures for operational glacier monitoring will also be of scientific value. The proposed project will not only be a large contribution to the expansion of core-competencies of the project partners but will also enable a new, supraregional cooperation between the involved institutions as well as the incorporation of relevant stakeholders.

Censz – critical elements in nonsulphide zinc deposits

The definition Critical Elements (CE) is assigned to those raw materials that are characterized by high supply risk and their high economic importance for the world/EU economy. Their high supply risk for EU is because  Europe does not have enough primary resources of its own.  The supply has to be satisfied by the global market production, which is often from geopolitically sensitive regions. It is recognised that recycling can only make a limited contribution to supplying European needs..
The central aim is to establish a comprehensive database of some of the most strategically important CE (Gallium, Indium and Germanium hereafter referred to by the acronym ‘GIG’) deportment within Nonsulphide Zinc (+Lead) deposits (NSZ) occurring within the Critical Zone of the crust, normally formed after the weathering and modification of Zn-Pb sulphide protores. These deposits have been exploited in the past in Europe (Italy, Belgium, Poland), and are currently exploited in several countries of the world, but they were never considered as a potential source for GIG even though some of the sulphide progenitors often contain these elements.

Quantum Stackelberg duopoly in the presence of correlated noise

We study the influence of entanglement and correlated noise using correlated amplitude damping, depolarizing and phase damping channels on the quantum Stackelberg duopoly. Our investigations show that under the action of amplitude damping channel a critical point exists for unentangled initial state as well, at which firms get equal payoffs. The game becomes a follower advantage game when the channel is highly decohered. Two critical points corresponding to two values of the entanglement angle are found in the presence of correlated noise. Within the range of these limits of entanglement angle, the game is follower advantage game. In case of depolarizing channel, the payoffs of the two firms are strongly influenced by the memory parameter. The presence of quantum memory ensures the existence of Nash equilibrium for the entire range of decoherence and entanglement parameters for both the channels. A local maximum in the payoffs is observed which vanishes as the channel correlation increases. Moreover, under the influence of depolarizing channel, the game is always a leader advantage game. Furthermore, it is seen that phase damping channel does not effect the outcome of the game.
