“Rumour has it…”. La comunicazione informale nel sistema economico: dal buzz marketing all’aggiotaggio
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-05-07)In contrast to the persuasiveness of a public discourse, or with the universal vocation of journalism, the gossip (always underestimated, ignored or even despised for being informal and petty act) should be thought of as ... -
Novel technologies and process intensification in the production of micro-systems with pharmacological/nutraceutical activity
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-22)Purpose of the PhD thesis was to develop a novel microencapsulation process, designing and building a single-pot semi-continuous bench scale apparatus. The novel process is based on the coupling of two emerging techniques, ... -
Development of selective materials and methods for analytical techniques combined with mass spectrometry
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-23)Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful detection technique that has become very important in several chemical disciplines for detection of both small molecules (environmental pollutants, small metabolites) and large biomolecules ... -
Polymeric films with co-crystalline and nanoporous crystalline phases: orientations, chirality and possible applications in photonic crystals
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015)Polymers can crystallize in different crystalline forms; polymorphism is the term to indicate this ability. It is known that processing and physical properties of polymer-based materials are strongly affected by the ... -
Supercritical assisted processes for the production of biopolymeric micro and nanocarriers
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-20)This work provides an innovative point of view on obtaining nanoparticles by supercritical fluids. Supercritical fluids have already been exploited in the production and processing of micro or sub-micro particles, but the ... -
Multi-Value Numerical Modeling for Special Di erential Problems
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-05-22)The subject of this thesis is the analysis and development of new numerical methods for Ordinary Di erential Equations (ODEs). This studies are motivated by the fundamental role that ODEs play in applied mathematics and ... -
Analisi e risoluzione del problema dell’allocazione ottima delle risorse
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-05-14)In this thesis, a mathematical model to optimize the allocation of human resources is presented. The problem can be summarized as follows: given a set of jobs (or tasks), tath must be performed by a set of resources in ... -
Improving Network Anomaly Detection with Independent Component Analysis
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-05-04)Complexity, sophistication, and rate of growth of modern networks, coupled with the depth, continuity, and pervasiveness of their role in our everyday lives, stress the importance of identifying potential misuse or threats ... -
Production of micro and nanoparticles of thermolabile compounds using supercritical assisted atomization
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-20)Supercritical Assisted Atomization (SAA) is a very efficient process to micronize several kind of compounds, such as catalysts, polymers and active principles, also for pharmaceutical applications. The process is based ... -
Search-based approaches for software development effort estimation
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-06-19)Effort estimation is a critical activity for planning and monitoring software project development and for delivering the product on time and within budget. Significant over or under-estimates expose a software project to ... -
Forest fire modelling
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-21)Wildland fires have always been undesired and dangerous events. The danger includes the destruction of a renewable natural resource, damage of the atmospheric environment through the emissions of pollutant gases, which ... -
Foam Injection molding with physical blowing agents
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-20)Foam injection molding uses environmental friendly blowing agents under high pressure and temperature to produce parts having a cellular core and a compact solid skin (the so-called “structural foam”). The addition of a ... -
Constraining models of extended theories of gravity with terrestrial and astrophysical experiments
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-04-30)In this Thesis we report a general review of Extended Theories of Gravity and the fundamental aspects of General Relativity. We show the technicality of development of field equation with respect to Newtonian, Post-Newtonian ... -
Stochastic diffusion processes with jumps for cancer growth and neuronal activity models
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2015-05-22)In the last decades, great attention has been paid to the description of bio- logical, physical and engineering systems subject to various types of jumps. A jump, or catastrophe, is considered as a random event that ... -
