Download or read book Performance of Wind Exposed Structures Results of the PERBACCO project written by Francesco Ricciardelli and published by Firenze University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PERBACCO (a free Italian acronym for Life-cycle Performance, Innovation and Design Criteria for Structures and Infrastructures Facing Æolian and Other Natural Hazards) is a research project partly funded by the Italian Ministry for University (MIUR) in the PRIN (Progetti di Ricerca di Interesse Nazionale) framework, for the years 2004-05.Within the project, a first attempt has been made to integrate different disciplines aiming at an overall optimization of the performance of a wide range of wind exposed structures and infrastructures, with consequent benefi cial impact on the society.The overall objectives were (a) to provide unifi ed concepts for "expected performance" and "risks induced by æolian and other natural hazards", to be applied to structures and infrastructures over their whole life-cycle, such to be acceptable to stakeholders in the construction process (i.e. from the owner to the end-user), (b) to provide models and methodologies for dynamic monitoring of the performance of structures and infrastructures, to be integrated in appropriately designed procedures, and (c) to collect, refi ne, fi le and disseminate the knowledge available on a European basis, concerning the performance of wind-exposed structures and facilities, in a way such to be of use to Construction Industry. This volume summarises the main results obtained during the Project, with each Section addressing a different class of problems, to which many research Units have contributed. A list of papers containing the main results of the research activities carried out within the Project is also provided in each Section.

Download or read book Illegal People written by David Bacon and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For two decades photojournalist David Bacon has documented the connections between labor, migration, and the global economy. In Illegal People Bacon exposes the many ways globalization uproots people in Latin America and Asia, driving them to migrate. At the same time, U.S. immigration policy makes the labor of those displaced people a crime in the United States. Bacon makes his case through interviews and on-the-spot reporting both from impoverished communities abroad and from immigrant workplaces and neighborhoods here. He analyzes NAFTA's corporate tilt as a cause of displacement and migration from Mexico and shows that criminalizing immigrant labor also benefits employers. He argues that immigration and trade policy are elements of a single economic system. Bacon traces the development of illegal status back to slavery and shows the human cost of treating the indispensable labor of millions of migrants--and the migrants themselves--as illegal. Illegal People argues for a sea change in the way we think, debate, and legislate around issues of migration and globalization, promoting a human rights perspective throughout a globalized world.

Download or read book The Italian Economy written by Vera Zamagni and published by World Economies. This book was released on 2018 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legacies of two great civilizations--the Roman Empire and Renaissance city-states--are still apparent in today's Italian economy in its internationalization, strong regional cultures, tourism, and arts industries. Less appreciated is the country's status as continental Europe's second-largest industrial power, notwithstanding the disproportionate significance of SMEs in Italy. Vera Zamagni's survey of the Italian economy and its modern history outlines its unique shape and structure and how human factors explain its strengths in social networks, "niche capitalism," and well-being indicators, as well as its weaknesses reflected in regional imbalances, political instability, and recently in banking. Focusing on economic developments since 1945, Zamagni explains how the contemporary economy is the result of the contours of this longer history, of the country's geography--low on natural resources but blessed with good weather and shipping opportunities--and more recent factors such as the country's membership in the EU and the changing profile of Italian demography and the country's surprisingly measured response to the challenges of migration. Drawing upon both conventional and heterodox approaches, the book concludes with an assessment of the prospects for the Italian economy. The book provides a concise overview of value for students in politics, political economy, history, and economics and for professionals looking to understand the nature of recent Italian economic performance.

Download or read book Bilancio di esercizio e principi contabili written by Alberto Quagli and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2017-02-01 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume Bilancio e principi contabili è giunto orami all’ottava edizione, dopo quindici anni dalla sua prima stesura e a due anni di distanza dalla settima edizione. Il libro è basato sull’analisi della legge civile in materia di bilancio di esercizio e dei principi contabili nazionali dell’Organismo Italiano di Contabilità (OIC) applicabili alle imprese industriali, commerciali e di servizi. Dopo i primi due capitoli, dedicati al ruolo del bilancio, ai suoi postulati e agli schemi formali dei prospetti previsti dalla legge, l’articolazione è sostanzialmente basata sulle classi di voci dello schema di Stato Patrimoniale, discusse nella loro problematiche di classificazione, valutazione ed esposizione in bilancio. In ogni capitolo è inizialmente descritta la classificazione delle voci di Stato Patrimoniale fornita dal Codice Civile e i connessi riflessi nel Conto Economico. Segue quindi l’esame delle problematiche valutative e di collocazione in bilancio delle voci scaturenti dai giudizi di fine periodo.Per ogni capitolo, e quindi per ogni classe di bilancio, una parte finale prende sinteticamente in esame le relative regole IASB (International Accounting Standards Board), in quanto tali principi contabili internazionali sono ormai adottati dalle aziende italiane.Rispetto alla precedente, questa edizione si caratterizza per l’aggiornamento riferito ai cambiamenti alle regole del Codice Civile in materia di bilancio introdotti con il D. Lgs. 138/2015 e alle conseguenti modifiche dei documenti dell’Organismo Italiano di Contabilità approvati a fine 2016. I riferimenti normativi sono aggiornati a dicembre 2016.Il principale destinatario di queste pagine è lo studente universitario dei corsi di Ragioneria delle triennali e delle magistrali, che ha (tendenzialmente) già superato il corso di Economia aziendale, nel quale sono state fornite le prime nozioni logiche sul bilancio di esercizio. In questo volume pertanto l’accento cade principalmente sulle problematiche di applicazione delle regole di valutazione e di classificazione imposte dal quadro normativo attualmente esistente. Per i casi meno immediati, sono presentare le rilevazioni in partita doppia.Alberto Quagli, professore ordinario di Economia aziendale presso l’Università di Genova, è membro del Comitato degli esperti di supporto all’OIC, membro del Comitato tecnico scientifico di ANDAF per il bilancio e i principi contabili, membrop del Financial Reporting Scientific Committee della European Accounting Association. Ha pubblicato numerosi volumi e articoli sui temi del bilancio e della informativa finanziaria e copre la cattedra di Bilancio Consolidato e Principi contabili internazionali e di Auditing nel corso di laurea magistrale Amministrazione, Finanza e Controllo del Dipartimento di Economia, Università di Genova.
