These interactions were studied many times (3) and theoretical models were proposed. One model is based on one-phonon scattering due to the mass defect (4) with an extension proposed by M. WAGNER (5) to include two-phonon interactions. A second is based on one-phonon scattering due to force constant changes in the presence of a vacancy (6). In (3) J.W. SCHWARTZ et al. concluded that phonon scattering is mainly due the cationic vacancy; the divalent ion acts when its size differs from that of the host ion. Nevertheless they do not exclude the possibility of two-phonon processes as treated by M. WAGNER (5).

Whereas the presence of objects in the oesophagus demands immediate endoscopic removal, gastric localization does not require any emergency treatment except for cases of perforation or incarceration, as most foreign bodies (80-90%) are eliminated naturally. Only two weeks after ingestion, in the case of failed expulsion, is it necessary to proceed to endoscopic removal so as to prevent decubitus or perforation erosions. Endoscopic extraction is made difficult by the length and weight of the object, on by its smallness and lack of texture, which make it hard to get hold of. In the case of suture stitches, it may be hard to cut them because of the presence of a gastric mucosa reactive granulomatous inflammatory process. Contraindications to endoscopic extraction are the failure of the patient to cooperate, acute oesophagitis (peptic and due to caustics) and perforating in the stomach, due to congenit...

The boriding depth and the nature, disposition and relative amounts of the reaction products have been determined and discussed with regard to the chromium content in the alloys. The mechanical compactness and hardness of the innermost Fe2B single-phase layers, which are quantitatively predominant in the boride coatings, have been related to the extent of crystallographic order.

All of this he pursued on the basis of objective physical evidence. Also, Alexander showed that the unfolding geometry of beauty can be sought with practical means that demonstrate its connections with all of life. A new Master program in " Building Beauty: Experience of Ecologic Design and Construction Process " is now assembling at the University Suor Orsola Benincasa in Naples, Italy, with the mission of pursuing beauty through a new model of architectural education inspired by Alexander, with colleagues of the Center for Environmental Structure (CES), the organization Alexander established for his professional and educational work. In this paper we introduce the context of " radical " traditions of architectural education and culture from the 1960s and the current debate in the United Kingdom and the US; we then present the program's general vision, that merges a truly holistic practice of building with nature and the community, with a research/evidence based approach to knowledge; finally we focus on pedagogic principles aimed to align with, and support, such vision; the proposed pedagogy covers both teaching and assessment, by introducing a constructionist approach implemented through an original Project-Based Learning model updated with latest fundamentals of Agile Project Management.

Per un efficace inserimento di questa importante infrastruttura tecnologica in ambito scolastico (progetto Lepida Scuola) abbiamo ipotizzato una sua integrazione con una strategia didattica di taglio costruttivista in cui l'infrastruttura tecnologica viene vista come uno strumento fondamentale con cui apprendere e non da cui apprendere.

The issue is dealt with according to two perspectives. The first considers LOs as a product whose creation is entrusted to the students. This leads into the realm of constructionist learning and to using technologies within perspective of "not to learn from them but to learn with themʺ guarantees the effectiveness of integrating them in education. To put this approach into practice effectively, teachers are required to learn to manage a new form of education. This is the focus of the first part of our study. The second part examines the idea of using LOs as pre-constructed objects and as resources that promote significant learning. In this context, after examining some of the criteria that LOs have to meet in order to be considered as such, we go on to describe the likely LOs of the future as envisaged by , namely, LOs implemented in the form of conversations. The system and the student will hold conversations by means of natural language, based on open questions and answers, and the system will be capable of adapting itself to requirements and thereby of generating itself. A possible consequence will be a new kind of school, without a planned curriculum, explicit tests and perhaps even without lessons. Within this renewed learning environment, the teacher will have the crucial role of acting as a resource and a guide.
