Les manuels de français dans l’enseignement professionnel : pour une histoire de la discipline
Authors: Lopez Maryse
Published: October 2016

Dire que la réforme Berthoin de 1959 marque l’intégration de l’enseignement professionnel dans un système scolaire qui se réorganise ne suffit pas à rendre compte des évolutions de la discipline « français » lorsqu’elle a pour finalité de former des ouvriers. Dans la décennie qui précède la réforme, les manuels à destination des classes de CAP et plus largement du secondaire technique permettent d’éclairer les mouvements complexes qui traversent alors la discipline. L’analyse comparée de leurs contenus et de leurs démarches remet en question l’idée d’un alignement inconditionnel de la discipline sur le modèle dominant de l’enseignement secondaire général. Les manuels révèlent, en effet, une résistance au modèle du secondaire général, résistance qui repose sur la défense d’un projet d’éducation populaire pour une filière ayant une histoire commune avec l’enseignement primaire. En cela les manuels éclairent un aspect encore méconnu de l’histoire de la discipline « français » dans le second degré.
Le manuel scolaire, un terrain de recherches en didactique ?
Authors: Denizot Nathalie
Published: October 2016

L’étude explore la métaphore du manuel comme « terrain » de recherches, plus particulièrement pour les travaux concernant la scolarisation des corpus littéraires, pour en interroger les implications méthodologiques en didactique du français (choix du terrain, acteurs, données recueillies). Elle met en évidence la dimension spatiale complexe des manuels, qui ne peuvent être réduits à de simples réceptacles de contenus, mais qu’il faut envisager comme des espaces contextuels et relationnels. Elle souligne enfin l’intérêt de l’étude des manuels (notamment pour les recherches didactiques à dimension historique), en tant qu’ils participent à un espace des représentations disciplinaires dont l’analyse est essentielle pour mieux comprendre les configurations de la discipline.
Ouvrages et manuels scolaires de lecture et de grammaire en Suisse romande au XIX e siècle
Authors: Tinembart Sylviane , Darme Anouk
Published: October 2016

L’article met en évidence les transformations de l’enseignement du français dans les écoles primaires de trois cantons de Suisse romande au XIX e siècle. Il prend appui sur l’analyse et la comparaison des ouvrages et manuels scolaires de lecture et de grammaire alors en usage. Cette étude des moyens d’enseignement met aussi en visibilité la lente didactisation et disciplinarisation du français : la lecture et la grammaire considérées comme disjointes dans l’enseignement dans la première moitié du XIX e siècle sont progressivement mises au service de la composition. Dès le début du XX e siècle, enseigner le français est alors envisagé comme un tout dont le but est avant tout la rédaction.
L’enseignement des homophones grammaticaux à travers les manuels et les textes officiels
Authors: Tallet Christine
Published: October 2016

Les homophones grammaticaux sont un lieu d’erreurs fréquent chez les écoliers, les lycéens, les étudiants mais aussi chez tout scripteur. Pourtant, ils ont toujours fait l’objet d’un enseignement de classe en classe. Le propos de cette contribution est de montrer que l’enseignement des homophones grammaticaux a toujours été considéré comme une nécessité et qu’il est une invention scolaire dans le but d’aider les élèves à les orthographier correctement. L’étude en diachronie des manuels depuis l’Ancien Régime jusqu’à nos jours montre que cet enseignement est un héritage du passé qui a du mal à se démarquer des présentations traditionnelles. Les auteurs des manuels ne prennent pas toujours en compte ni les textes officiels ni les avancées de la recherche en didactique. Des démarches innovantes voient, malgré tout, le jour, mais elles restent marginales.

Authors: Penneman Jessica , Wyns Marielle
Published: October 2016

L’article s’appuie sur les premières données issues d’une recherche expérimentale en milieu naturel qui porte sur l’enseignement des pratiques de lecture et d’écriture des textes à visée informative requises pour réussir à l’école. Après avoir présenté quelques constats liés au caractère hétérogène et composite des supports didactiques largement utilisés dans la sphère scolaire, nous présenterons les spécificités de Lirécrire pour apprendre , l’instrument didactique expérimenté dans le cadre de cette recherche. Nous analysons les verbalisations issues de focus-groupes et des séances d’accompagnement des enseignants qui expérimentent l’outil. Nous présentons les difficultés de mise en œuvre auxquelles ils sont confrontés et les moyens utilisés pour les surmonter. Nous montrons enfin comment les enseignants se sont approprié l’outil.
Variations sur le divan
Authors: Boucherat-Hue Valérie
Published: October 2016

L’indécidabilité freudienne sur le statut de la sexualité infantile chez l’adulte reflète la complexité de la question du sexuel chez l’enfant dans ses liens avec la psychosexualité infantile comme avec le sexuel de l’adulte, et nos modèles métapsychologiques de la névrose infantile ne sauraient escamoter cette difficulté stimulante que les cliniques de l’excitation actualisent.
Plaidoyer pour une certaine utilisation du théâtre face à la radicalisation des adolescents
Authors: Guénoun Tamara
Published: October 2016

Comment le théâtre peut-il être un art adapté de prévention de la radicalisation des adolescents ? Après avoir montré en quoi la radicalisation des adolescents peut être considérée comme un symptôme politique d’une souffrance psychique des adolescents et jeunes adultes, l’auteur s’attache à montrer la valeur politique intrinsèque du théâtre qui en fait un outil particulièrement adapté pour aider à penser sa citoyenneté. L’auteur définit toutefois un point de bascule majeur : le théâtre comme lieu de réappropriation de sa citoyenneté tire son efficacité du fait de mettre les adolescents en jeu. L’expérience d’être spectateur n’est plus suffisante dans notre société contemporaine. L’atelier de jeu théâtral avec les adolescents, dans le cadre pensé de la médiation thérapeutique, va permettre de réinscrire chez eux le lien entre individuel et collectif, pour sortir d’une destructivité interne massive adressée au socius. Le propos de cet article est illustré par plusieurs cas et vignettes cliniques tirés de la pratique d’ateliers théâtraux avec des adolescents. Ces trois situations viennent de cliniques différentes avec cette tranche d’âge : en collège, en hospitalisation psychiatrique pour adolescents et enfin en hôpital général pour adolescents.
Traitement du Syndrome de stress post-traumatique complexe basé sur la théorie des états du Moi : une étude de cas
Authors: Piedfort-Marin Olivier
Published: October 2016

La Psychothérapie Psychodynamique Imaginative des Traumatismes (PPIT) a été développée par la psychanalyste allemande Luise Reddemann pour le traitement des séquelles post-traumatiques complexes. Cette approche intégrative est construite sur la théorie des états du Moi et intègre en particulier l’utilisation de techniques hypno-imaginatives avec une attention centrale portée sur la résilience et la régulation des affects médiée par l’auto-compassion. Cet article présente la théorie des états du Moi et la PPIT en l’illustrant par l’étude du cas d’une femme souffrant des séquelles de violences sexuelles répétées dans l’enfance au niveau intra-familial.
Mémoire et fiction : apports de la littérature à l’approche psychothérapique des troubles démentiels
Authors: Peretti Pascale
Published: October 2016

Depuis les prémisses de la culture occidentale, l’oubli nous est présenté sous son visage délétère, notamment à travers les traditions mythologiques et philosophiques de la Grèce Antique. Cette face obscure de Léthé n’est pas sans évoquer les conséquences mutilantes des pertes neuro-cognitives vécues par les patients déments. Pourtant, un autre visage de l’oubli se fait également jour dans l’histoire littéraire occidentale, qui nous donne à appréhender ses vertus potentiellement salvatrices et aperturales. Aussi, à partir de quelques œuvres littéraires, interrogeons-nous ici les rapports de la mémoire, de l’oubli, de la fiction et de l’identité, ainsi que le « double sens » de l’oubli chez les sujets engagés dans des processus démentiels. Ce qui nous amène à éclairer la valeur et la portée d’une « clinique du sujet » dans l’approche psychothérapique des troubles démentiels.
La question de la mort dans la clinique de la personne agée
Authors: Chraibi Sofia , Bettayeb Lounes , Igier Valérie
Published: October 2016

La question du réel de la mort est au cœur de la problématique de la personne âgée, indissociable de celle du temps, pourvoyeur d’angoisse de néantisation et mobilisant chez elle différents modes de mécanismes de défense. Parce que la pensée heideggérienne propose une compréhension de l’être articulant la mort, l’existence et la temporalité, nous montrerons en quoi cet éclairage philosophique associé à notre pratique clinique auprès de ces sujets peut nous aider dans la prise en charge psychothérapeutique des personnes âgées.
L’art sacre, un art impossible
Authors: Housset Emmanuel
Published: October 2016

La crise de l’art sacré n’est pas conjoncturelle, mais elle appartient bien à sa tension constitutive entre l’intention propre à l’art et la volonté de refléter la parole de Dieu. En prenant comme fil conducteur le sacré chrétien, il s’agit de montrer que l’art est un chemin pour comprendre le sacré autrement que comme une valeur ou que comme une catégorie. Mais en retour, le sacré est un chemin pour comprendre que l’art n’est pas image. En cela l’art sacré est un art impossible au sens où il ne vise pas à représenter des possibles déterminés par l’homme, mais à être médiateur entre Dieu et l’homme et entre les hommes. L’incarnation est alors la vérité de l’art sacré qui doit sans cesse chercher des chemins nouveaux en tant qu’il est un acte fondamental de la liturgie. L’art sacré ne représente pas, il rappelle aux hommes leur tâche d’être, qui est une tâche commune.
Dits et non-dits sur la sexualité dans la relation entre jeunes et professionnels de la Protection Judiciaire de la Jeunesse
Authors: Amsellem-Mainguy Yaëlle , Dumollard Marie
Published: October 2016

Cet article se propose d’analyser le poids de la catégorisation de la sexualité des mineurs suivis au pénal par l’institution judiciaire. L’enjeu est de saisir le caractère normatif des prises en charge sur la sexualité des jeunes présents dans huit types de structures de milieu ouvert de la Protection judiciaire de la jeunesse. Alors qu’elles n’enferment ni ne mettent à l’écart des mineurs, elles encadrent cependant des comportements juvéniles notamment sur les représentations et pratiques de leur sexualité.
La prison de femmes, un puissant relai du modèle contemporain légitime de sexualité féminine
Authors: Joël Myriam
Published: October 2016

Lieu caractérisé par la coercition, la prison est couramment associée à l’exercice d’une sexualité spécifique proscrite et hautement contrôlée. Appréhender les établissements pénitentiaires comme des espaces sociaux invite cependant à remettre en cause cette assertion au travers de l’examen des liens unissant la sexualité du dedans à celle du dehors. Cette approche s’avère particulièrement féconde pour l’étude de la sexualité en prison de femmes, laquelle se comprend à la lumière de trois processus : confortation et remise en question des modèles de conduites traditionnellement assignés aux femmes, importation et exportation des normes restreignant l’exercice de l’activité sexuelle, et discipline et autocontrôle exercés sur les conduites sexuelles. La prison de femmes apparaît ainsi comme un puissant relai du modèle contemporain légitime de sexualité féminine.
Supervised Machine Learning for Plants Identification Based on Images of Their Leaves
Authors: Rahmani Mohamed Elhadi , Amine Abdelmalek , Hamou Reda Mohamed
Published: October 2016

Botanists study in general the characteristics of leaves to give to each plant a scientific name; such as shape, margin...etc. This paper proposes a comparison of supervised plant identification using different approaches. The identification is done according to three different features extracted from images of leaves: a fine-scale margin feature histogram, a Centroid Contour Distance Curve shape signature and an interior texture feature histogram. First represent each leaf by one feature at a time in, then represent leaves by two features, and each leaf was represented by the three features. After that, the authors classified the obtained vectors using different supervised machine learning techniques; the used techniques are Decision tree, Naïve Bayes, K-nearest neighbour, and neural network. Finally, they evaluated the classification using cross validation. The main goal of this work is studying the influence of representation of leaves' images on the identification of plants, and also studying the use of supervised machine learning algorithm for plant leaves classification.
Current Approaches, Challenges, and Perspectives on Spatial OLAP for Agri-Environmental Analysis
Authors: Bimonte Sandro
Published: October 2016

Spatial OLAP (SOLAP) systems are powerful GeoBusiness Intelligence tools for analysing massive volumes of geo-referenced datasets. Therefore, these technologies are receiving considerable attention in the research community and in the database industry as well. Applications of these technologies are current in several domains such as ad marketing, healthcare, and urban development, to name a few. Contrary to other application domains, in the context of agri-environmental data and analysis, SOLAP systems have been underexploited. Therefore, in this paper, the author makes an exhaustive survey of most of the published studies in the domain of the SOLAP analysis of agri-environmental data with an emphasis on the reasons why only few recent works investigate the use of SOLAP systems in the agri-environmental context. In particular, the author focuses on the complexity of the spatio-multidimensional model and its implementation. Moreover, based on surveying the state of the art in this domain, this paper identifies some general guidelines that must be considered by the scientific community to design and implement efficient SOLAP approaches to the analysis of geo-referenced agri-environmental datasets. Finally, open issues about warehousing and OLAPing agri-environmental data are also shown in the paper.
A Literature Review of Musculoskeletal Disorders in Handicraft Sector
Authors: Meena M. L. , Dangayach G.S. , Bhardwaj A.
Published: October 2016

This research review article made an attempt to review such issues pertaining to handicraft sector. It highlight/covers following aspects in detail: ergonomics interventions in handicraft industries, occupational risk factor, and musculoskeletal disorders. The literatures over a decade reported that ergonomics concepts are more applied in large-scale industries like steel plant, power plant, manufacturing plants, automotive sectors etc. rather than small-scale industries like handicraft. However, applying ergonomics concepts/principles in such industries would definitely lead to increase in the work-system-worker productivity by improvement in tools, methods, work-environment, minimizing injuries and disorders. Based on literature studies recommendations are made that significant lead to improvement in productivity of such industries.

Authors: Alrobai Amen , McAlaney John , Phalp Keith , Ali Raian
Published: October 2016

Digital Addiction refers to a problematic usage of digital devices characterised by being excessive, compulsive, impulsive and hasty. It is often associated with negative life experience such as anxiety and depression. To combat Digital Addiction, interactive e-health intervention applications started to appear to aid users adjust their usage style. The present study aims to understand the risks related to such e-health interventions. The authors conducted an empirical research to investigate such risks from users' perspectives through a diary study. Fourteen participants were recruited and asked to install popular “digital diet” applications and use them for two weeks and record their significant moments. The authors then interviewed the participants to discuss their experience. Self-governed interactive e-health intervention for digital addiction could lead to adverse side effects such as lower self-esteem, misconception of the healthy usage and creating an alternative addictive experience. Thus, there is a need for theory-based development and rigorous testing for such e-health solutions.
Online ‘Tells' with Cultural Bindings
Authors: Akoumianakis Demosthenes
Published: October 2016

The paper explores the explanatory value of digital traces, especially for gaining insight to ‘cultural' settings in the absence of cultural participants. We consider digital traces as the ‘matter' of online social phenomena which can be revealed through transformation, re-alignment or re-configuration of data. In this vein, the notion of ‘imbrication' is used to provide a conceptual lens for organizing inquiries in which digital traces should be re-arranged so as to act interdependently with other digital representations to provide posterior insights into designated virtual settlements. Empirical insight is sought by two case studies addressing different digital settings and different social accomplishments in the absence of ‘cultural' participants.

Authors: Razak Rafiza Abdul , Yusop Farrah Dina , Idris Aizal Yusrina , Halili Siti Hajar
Published: October 2016

The paper introduces Teacher Interactive Electronic Continuous Professional Development (TIE-CPD), an online interactive training system. The framework and methodology of TIE-CPD are designed with functionalities comparable with existing e-training systems. The system design and development literature offers several methodology and framework examples. In the process of designing an e-training system, other system designs may be referenced to provide an overview of the framework and methodology for TIE-CPD. The proposed system are primarily intended to facilitate acceptance and use of electronic training environments for teachers across a broad range of nations. The main function of such a system is to provide a training system for teacher use in enhancing competency, professionalism, skill, and knowledge. A continuing development program based on this system can be interactively conducted online and accessed from anywhere. Thus, online training programs can be improved consistently and the cost in terms of both money and labor for such programs can be reduced.
Understanding Human Behavior in Urban Spaces using Social Network Data
Authors: Martinez Victor R. , Escalante Miguel A. , Beguerisse-Díaz Mariano , Garduño Elmer , Gonzalez Victor M.
Published: October 2016

Public streams of geo-located social media information have provided researchers with a rich source of information from which to draw patterns of urban-scale human-mobility. However, most of the literature relies on assumptions over the spatial distribution of this data (e.g., by considering only a uniform grid division of space). In this work the authors present a method that does not rely on such assumptions. They followed the social media activity of 24,135 Twitter users from Mexico City over a period of seven months (June 2013 - February 2014). The authors' method clusters user's geo-locations into a 19 zone data-driven division of Mexico City. These results can be interpreted from a graph theory-based perspective, by representing each division as nodes, and the edges between them as the number of people traveling between locations. Graph centrality reveals city's infrastructural key points. Without these gateways the authors can argue that mobility would either be radically transformed or break the city apart.
Enhancement of Overall Output in a Small Scale Industry through VSM, Line Balancing and Work Standardization
Authors: Nallusamy S. , Saravanan V.
Published: October 2016

In the present scenario, it is necessary to follow lean manufacturing techniques more effectively and efficiently in order to meet the challenges of the global competitive market. Hence it is inevitable to introduce lean techniques which increase the productivity and reduce the lead time that ultimately results in customer satisfaction. Lean manufacturing has widely been executed in large scale industries over the past three decades. Lean means nothing but the creation of more value for customers with fewer resources and is the current trend for management of products and services. Companies are able to respond to changing customer desires with high variety, high quality, and fast throughput times with low cost. Also information management has become much simpler and more accurate. The main aim of this paper is to study the existing system in a small scale automotive component manufacturing industry and use lean tools to reduce lead time without greatly affecting the current working systems in the industry. Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is used to standardize the production and Kanban is also introduced by indicating the part number and part description to all work stations. Ranked position weight method in line balancing is used to reduce the transportation time of products from one station to another. Cycle time and setup time were reduced by about 350 seconds and 1500 seconds by work standardization and hence the productivity also increased. After implementing SOP the overall lead time reduced from 5780 seconds to 3946 seconds.

Multi Response Optimization by Using the Hybrid Technique in Electro Discharge Machining of AISI 304
Authors: Bhaumik Munmun , Maity Kali Pada
Published: October 2016

Electro discharge machining (EDM) is most popular non-conventional electro-thermal machining process where electrical energy is used to generate a spark and thermal energy used to remove material from the workpiece. The primary goal of EDM is getting more material removal rate (MRR) with lower tool wear rate (TWR). For this investigation, machining parameters like peak current, pulse on time, gap voltage and duty cycle are considered as process parameter, and material removal rate (MRR) and tool wear rate (TWR) are considered as response. AISI 304 stainless steel and tungsten carbide are used as work material and tool material respectively. Taguchi L27 orthogonal array has been applied for designing the experiment. A hybrid optimization technique like desirability in combination with grey relational analysis (GRA) has been performed to get the optimum level of the control parameter for getting higher MRR and lower TWR. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is performed for the statistical analysis. These results show that peak current is the most significant parameter for MRR and TWR. The optimal parameter setting for maximum MRR and minimum TWR has obtained by desirability coupled with Grey relational analysis.
Cell Signaling Pathways That Regulate Antigen Presentation
Authors: Brutkiewicz Randy R.
Published: October 2016

Cell signaling pathways regulate much in the life of a cell: from shuttling cargo through intracellular compartments and onto the cell surface, how it should respond to stress, protecting itself from harm (environmental insults or infections), to ultimately, death by apoptosis. These signaling pathways are important for various aspects of the immune response as well. However, not much is known in terms of the participation of cell signaling pathways in Ag presentation, a necessary first step in the activation of innate and adaptive T cells. In this brief review, I discuss the known signaling molecules (and pathways) that regulate how Ags are presented to T cells and the mechanism(s), if identified. Studies in this area have important implications in vaccine development and new treatment paradigms against infectious diseases, autoimmunity, and cancer.
NK Cell Responses Redefine Immunological Memory

Published: October 2016

Immunological memory has traditionally been regarded as a unique trait of the adaptive immune system. Nevertheless, there is evidence of immunological memory in lower organisms and invertebrates, which lack an adaptive immune system. Despite their innate ability to rapidly produce effector cytokines and kill virally infected or transformed cells, NK cells also exhibit adaptive characteristics such as clonal expansion, longevity, self-renewal, and robust recall responses to antigenic or nonantigenic stimuli. In this review, we highlight the intracellular and extracellular requirements for memory NK cell generation and describe the emerging evidence for memory precursor NK cells and their derivation.
Identification of 5-hydroxytryptamine-producing cells by detection of fluorescence in paraffin-embedded tissue sections
Authors: Kaneko Y. , Onda N. , Watanabe Y. , Shibutani M.
Published: October 2016

5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) produced by enterochromaffin (EC) cells is an important enteric mucosal signaling ligand and has been implicated in several gastrointestinal diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease and functional disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome. The present study reports a new, simple and rapid visualization method of 5-HT-producing EC cells utilizing detection of autofluorescence in paraffin-embedded tissue sections after formalin fixation. In human samples, there was a high incidence of autofluorescence+ cells in the 5-HT+ cells in the pyloric, small intestinal and colonic glands, while co-localization was lacking between autofluorescence+ and gastrin+ cells in the pyloric and small intestinal glands. Autofluorescence+ EC cells were detected in the colon of mice and rats. Autofluorescence+ cells were also observed in 5-HT+ β cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans in pregnant mice, while non-pregnant mouse pancreatic islet cells showed no 5-HT immunoreactivity or autofluorescence. These results suggest that autofluorescence+ cells are identical to 5-HT+ cells, and the source of autofluorescence may be 5-HT itself or molecules related to its synthesis or degradation. This autofluorescence signal detection method may be applicable for monitoring of inflammatory status of inflammatory bowel diseases in both the experimental and clinical settings.
NO-tryptophan: a new small molecule located in the rat brain
Authors: Mangas A. , Yajeya J. , González N. , Duleu S. , Geffard M. , Coveñas R.
Published: October 2016

A highly specific monoclonal antibody directed against nitric oxide-tryptophan (NO-W) with good affinity (10-9 M) and specificity was developed. In the rat brain, using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique, cell bodies containing NO-W were exclusively found in the intermediate and dorsal parts of the lateral septal nucleus. No immunoreactive fibres were found in the rat brain. This work reports the first visualization and the morphological characteristics of cell bodies containing NO-W in the mammalian brain. The restricted distribution of NO-W in the rat brain suggests that this molecule could be involved in specific physiological mechanisms.

Published: October 2016

Lorenzo Gotte (1926-1991) was an outstanding histologist at the School of Medicine of Padua. This year marks the 25th anniversary of his passing away – commemorated during the recent congress of the Italian Society for the Connective Tissue (SISC), held in Padua (September 30 - October 1, 2016). This brief note recalls this outstanding figure: indeed, forthose who knew him, Lorenzo Gotte was an exceptional scientist and at the same time, an unparalleled teacher – and, for many, a great friend. It is still difficult to separate these aspects of his personality, so intertwined in his life: studying elastin and elastic tissue was a passion central to Gotte’s life.
COMPARISON OF 3D REALITY CAPTURE TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE SURVEY OF STONE WALLS
Authors: Valero Enrique , Forster Alan , Bosché Frédéric , Wilson Lyn , Leslie Alick
Published: October 2016

The maintenance of the external fabric of historic buildings constitutes a large portion of overall building life cycle costs.Advanced reality capture and data processing technologies have the potential to transform existing survey practice,providing surveyors with objective data pertaining to building fabric, in a more rapid (frequent), safe and cost-effectivemanner. In this paper, we present a unique evaluation of several Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) and photogrammetric(PG) systems that assess their relative strengths for the survey of stone walls. The assessment is conducted using anhistoric building selected for its representativeness of form, fabric and condition. The work considers performance interms of data accuracy and precision, data completeness, and process efficiency. The results show that, while TLSprovides good geometric data to generate accurate and valuable 3D models, the quality of PG reconstructions can bealso be sufficient in such contexts. And considering the relatively low-cost and portability of modern digital camerascompared to laser scanners, photogrammetry can constitute a realistic alternative to TLS. In addition, mounting a cameraon a UAV could further solve access issues, preventing the need for any additional infrastructure (e.g. scaffolding), whichwould be required when employing TLS. However, a lesson drawn from this work is that effective acquisition ofphotogrammetric data requires careful planning to select the appropriate camera settings and picture density (andlocations) to ensure accurate and reliable photogrammetric reconstruction. This process may be referred to as: Planningfor Photogrammetry (P4P).
APLICACIÓN DE TÉCNICAS DE INGENIERÍA INVERSA PARA LA DOCUMENTACIÓN GRÁFICA Y GEOMÉTRICA DEL PATRIMONIO EN UN PROYECTO DE REALIDAD AUMENTADA: UN PRODUCTO MUSEOGRÁFICO PARA LA CATEDRAL DE LA SEO DE ZARAGOZA
Authors: Monzón Gasca Juan
Published: October 2016

This article addresses a project aimed to the diffusion of the Capilla de San Marcos cultural heritage. The project for this chapel, also called Capilla del Monumento de la Catedral del Salvador de Zaragoza, is based on augmented reality. After studying its history and researching on this cultural object, metric and graphic digitization were carried out by using reverse engineering, laser scanner and photogrammetry techniques. Processing that information thanks to new technologies has allowed generating methodological conclusions that focus on the creation of a museographic product about this singular place that will be helpful to understand the monument's historical and artistical context and, of course, to contribute to the Spanish heritage diffusion.
DOCUMENTACION DIGITAL APLICADA A LA VILLA ROMANA DE SANT GREGORI (BURRIANA, ESPAÑA)
Authors: Benedito Josep , Melchor José Manuel , Ferrer Juan José , Ricart José , Ayora Rafael
Published: October 2016

In this paper we aim at presenting the digitalization process done on the archaeological site at San Gregori a villa a mare from the Early Roman Empire found in Burriana, a Mediterranean coastal village of Spain. The archaeological work is part of a joint research project carried out by Universitat Jaume I in Castellón and the Archaeological Museum of Burriana. To date, the residential part of the villa in the northeast corner of the settlement has been excavated; this area is situated about 100 meters from the waterfront. The villa has been dated around the change of Era and IV c. A. D.; however, some Roman republican and Iberian materials have also been registered. The last phase of the work consisted on the development of a 3D laser scanning to complete the graphical work for the archaeological documentation of the site.
3D DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES TO RECORD EXCAVATION DATA: THE CASE OF THE CATACOMBS OF ST. LUCY (SIRACUSA, SICILY)
Authors: Tanasi Davide , Gradante Ilenia , Sgarlata Mariarita
Published: October 2016

Between 2013 and 2015, Arcadia University in partnership with the Pontifical Commission for Sacred Archaeology and the University of Catania undertook new excavation campaigns in the Catacombs of St. Lucy at Siracusa. The research focuses on some very problematic parts of Region C of the complex, including Oratory C, the so-called Pagan Shrine and Crypt VI. These areas document most effectively the long life of this Christian hypogeum, which incorporated previous structures and artefacts related to the Greek period and continued to be used until the Middle Ages. During the excavation an array of 3D digital techniques (3D scanning, 3d Modelling, Image-based 3D modelling) was used for the daily recording of the archaeological units, but also to create high-resolution virtual replicas of certain districts of the catacombs. Furthermore, the same techniques were applied to support the study of certain classes of materials, such as frescoes and marble architectural elements that could otherwise only be studied in the dark environment of the catacombs, making the visual analysis of such complex artifacts difficult and sometimes misleading, not to mention that the frequent use of strong sources of light for study can also endanger them. The virtual archaeology research undertaken at the Catacombs of St. Lucy represents the first systematic application of 3D digital technologies to the study of such a special archaeological context in Sicily.

This paper briefly shows the skills acquired not only in the field of Conservation-Restoration, but also in Virtual Restoration as applied to Cultrual Heritage. The work under consideration is the Mayor Altarpiece of the old Convent of San Francsico, today Church of San Esteban Protomartir in San Esteban de Gormaz, Soria. Built in 1628 in one of the most important workshops of the Diocese, in 1985 renovation works and refurbishment of the church had uncovered wall paintings in advocation to the founder of the Order behind the wooden reredos, one of the few examples of pictorial altarpieces preserved in Spain that forced the transfer of the wooden altarpiece to a shrine in the same locality where it is currently disassembled.This Cultural Property is a great example of heritage on which to apply the techniques of 3D modeling for virtual restoration and reconstruction of the environment as well, which aims to attempt visual recovery and potential unit without counyerfeiting, as methods of conservation, restoration and dissemination of Cultural Heritage.

The usage of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies began to grow when smartphones appeared. Until then, the number of portable devices capable of incorporating these technologies was reduced. Video games are the main field where these technologies are applied, but in other fields such as in archaeology, these technologies can offer many advantages. Ruins reconstruction, ancient life simulation, highly detailed 3D models visualisation of valuable objects from the past or even user free movement in missing places are just some examples found in literature.This paper reviews the latest visualisation technologies and their applicability to the rock art field. The main purpose is to disseminate rock art paintings through AR and VR applications. After the image-based three-dimensional (3D) modelling is obtained, an interactive visit to a shelter for displaying rock art paintings is presented. This is one of examples developed in this paper that pretends to apply the revised AR and VR techniques. In addition, an example of AR is developed that can be easily adapted to further applications displaying rock art paintings.

Mining operations are an essential part of Industrial Heritage. They provide an important reference in order to understand changing past realities, relationships between groups and reconfiguration in the communication between regions whose consequences still remain reference. These realities and relationships have led to the current socio- economic and political framework, which is projected into the future. The documentation of physical vestiges and machinery, now obsolete, is a metaphor that serves to illustrate and understand the past from our present perspective. Threedimensional models from the fusion of different techniques and physical structures contextualization allow to simulatethe mechanisms to promote sustainable tourism as paradigms of a modernity that only serves the immediate appearances. Our approach for documentation and simulation of mechanisms for the extraction and the treatment of mineral is provided as graphical support to understand a reality that goes beyond the “ThematicPark” approach. Moreover, the visualization provides a metaphor for the destruction of natural, physical and human resources of entire areas doomed to depopulation and disappearance. This also opens the door to broader developments that can use multimedia resources to support an all-embracing narrative experience.

While traditionally archaeological research has mainly been focused on individual cultural heritage monuments or distinct archaeological sites, the Austrian based Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology goes beyond the limitations of discrete sites in order to understand their archaeological context. This is achieved by investigating the space in-between the sites, studying entire archaeological landscapes from the level of individual postholes to the mapping of numerous square kilometres. This large-scale, high-resolution, multi-method prospection approach leads to enormous digital datasets counting many terabytes of data that until recently were technically not manageable. Novel programs and methods of data management had to be developed for data acquisition, processing and archaeological interpretation, in order to permit the extraction of the desired information from the very big amount of data. The analysis of the generated datasets is conducted with the help of semi-automatic algorithms within complex three-, or even four-dimensional geographical information systems. The outcome of landscape archaeological prospection surveys is visually communicated to the scientific community as well as to the general public and stakeholders. In many cases, a visualization of the scientific result and archaeological interpretations can be a powerful and suitable tool to illustrate and communicate even complex contexts to a wide audience. This paper briefly presents the great potential offered by a combination of large-scale non-invasive archaeological prospection methods and standardized workflows for the integration of big data, its interpretation and visualization. The proposed approach provides a context for buried archaeology across entire archaeological landscapes, changing our understanding of known monuments. We address the overcome and remaining challenges with the help of examples taken from outstanding landscape archaeological prospection case studies.

During the past decade, the implementation of 3D visualization and Geographic Information System (GIS) in archaeological research has increased and is now well established. However, the combination of these two factors remains rather complicated when faced with archaeological data. Some of the characteristics of this discipline impose the development of applications that will be able to cope with all of the specificities of archaeological data. Our research aims to create an Archaeological Information System (AIS) that will gather all of the characteristics of an archaeological work. In order to develop such an AIS, our first step was to identify its purposes and consequently, the features that should be available to the users. As it is destined to help with archaeological research, it is therefore of the outmost importance that the particularities of such a study are also taken into account. Moreover, the AIS is intended to incorporate point clouds that serve as a base for the three-dimensional model. These 3D point clouds result from the use of photogrammetry and/or lasergrammetry and, at a later stage, will be inserted into a GIS similar structure. The archaeological data will then be linked to the relevant section of the 3D model. However, these various stages and during the development of the AIS itself, we will encounter a series of issues that require to be addressed in order to produce a working system. This paper aims to identify and define the AIS characteristics as well as the issues and obstacles that we are going to face so that this system becomes a functional tool for archaeological research.

Muy diversas investigaciones previas han mostrado cómo la percepción del riesgo afecta el comportamiento de los conductores. Muchas de ellas van dirigidas a observar la diferencia de percepción entre conductores experimentados y noveles, o entre el riesgo objetivo y el percibido. Mientras que el riesgo objetivo puede ser obtenido a partir de las estadísticas de siniestralidad, el riesgo percibido es más complicado de evaluar. Existen diversos métodos, yendo desde la encuesta directa hasta técnicas de rastreo de la visión.En este estudio se presenta una nueva metodología para recoger datos de Percepción Subjetiva de Riesgo (PSR) de forma quasi-naturalística. Con esta metodología, los conductores pueden indicar de forma sencilla su percepción de confort tras recorrer cada una de las curvas que compone un trazado. Posteriormente, la correlación de estos datos con la geometría de las curvas y otras variables permite derivar sencillas reglas para obtener un diseño consistente de la carretera. Igualmente, si esta metodología es válida para ser llevada a cabo en un entorno simulado, permitiría evaluar carreteras en fase de proyecto, convirtiéndose en una valiosa herramienta para los ingenieros.Un total de 28 conductores participaron en la toma de datos, recorriendo el mismo tramo de carretera en la realidad y en entorno simulado, de 32 km. En ambos casos indicaron su percepción de PSR tras cada una de las curvas aisladas. En este estudio se muestran los resultados alcanzados, tanto en el entorno real como el simulado. Igualmente, se establecen conexiones y correlaciones entre ambos métodos, mostrando bajo qué condiciones el entorno simulado arroja valores válidos.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.1902
Recent trends in air transport sustainibility
Authors: Benito Arturo , Alonso Gustavo
Published: October 2016

The target of this paper is to analyse the main elements of Air Transport sustainability, studying their evolution during the last years and establishing the future prevalent trends, which might be modified by the application of the adequate policies. Air Transport sustainability is considered as integrated by five basic characteristics: physical accessibility, economic affordability, safety, security and environmental impact. Each one of them has its own influence on the development of this transportation mode and all of them are required in order to achieve a sustainable development. After defining the structural elements of the five characteristics and the corresponding quantitative indicators, the paper studies the recent evolution of such indicators and extrapolates the most likely future trends, having taken into account the most relevant limitations presently existent or potentially appearing in the near future. The most important policies being presently studied (future aircraft designs, infrastructure developments, potential safety and security new rules and tentative environmental action programs) are evaluated, considering the potential repercussions on sustainability progress. Some combinations of them are suggested as the most efficient alternatives for preserving the sustainable development of XXI century air transport.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.2150
