Book Urban Transport XXI

Download or read book Urban Transport XXI written by C.A. Brebbia and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 733 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Transport XXI contains the proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment. The series of annual conferences organised by the Wessex Institute was first held in 1995. Transportation in urban areas, with its related environmental and social impacts, is a topic of significant concern for policymakers in both municipal and central government and for the urban citizens who need effective and efficient transport systems. Urban transport systems require considerable studies to devise and then safeguard their operational use, maintenance and safety. Transportation systems produce significant environmental impacts and can enhance or degrade the quality of life in urban centres. Clearly the challenge of providing effective and efficient transport systems in urban settings remains an acute concern, with financial, political and environmental constraints limiting the ability of transport system planners and operators to deliver the high quality outcomes expected by the public. Papers cover such topics as: Urban Transport Planning and Management; Urban Transport Strategies; Public Transport Systems; Environmental Aspects; Economic and Social Impact; Safety and Security; Travel Behaviour Studies; Customer Satisfaction; Transportation Modelling and Simulation; Infrastructure Development; Intelligent and Advanced Transport Systems; Transportation Integration; City Logistics; Resilience and Inter-modal Transport Systems; Mass Transport Strategies; Social Impacts; Freight Transport; Railway Systems; Transport Governance and Administration; Port and City; Mobility and Public Space; Life Cycle Management.

Download or read book Il bando di gara written by Alessandro Quarta and published by Key Editore. This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il bando di gara costituisce un elemento di grande importanza per i contratti pubblici, e deve essere redatto con particolare attenzione, nel contenuto e nella forma. Vi sono infatti degli adempimenti precedenti alla gara, che devono tenere conto della complessa rete normativa di norme statali (specie la l. 55/2019), regionali, Decreti Ministeriali, e Delibere dell’Anac, nonché delle posizioni della giurisprudenza. Particolare attenzione deve essere rivolta al RUP (Responsabile unico del procedimento) al Direttore dell’Esecuzione del contratto, alle Convenzioni Consip, ai Criteri Ambientali Minimi (CAM), ed ai Conflitti di interesse. I bandi di gara riguardano procedure aperte, ristrette e negoziate e la relativa pubblicità (specie per gli appalti sotto soglia), e la trasparenza. Ogni fase presenta questi problemi che si collegano alle nuove prescrizioni previste ed identificate con sigle nuove, quali DUVRI (Documento Unico di Valutazione dei rischi); CIG (Codice Identificativo Gara), CUP (Codice Unico di Progetto). Nuovi e complessi problemi sono presenti nelle gare telematiche, nelle conseguenze del bando di gara, nei requisiti per partecipare, nelle anomalie, i contenuti, il soccorso istruttorio, l’avvalimento, la partecipazione in forma aggregata e la cauzione provvisoria. Tutti questi complessi problemi sono illustrati e chiariti anche in dettagli in quest’opera, che propone soluzioni corrette alla luce della giurisprudenza.

Book excerpt: After the harrowing experience of losing his mother while solving a brutal murder in London’s East End, young Sherlock Holmes commits himself to fighting crime … and is soon involved in another case. While visiting his father at the magnificent Crystal Palace, Sherlock stops to watch a remarkable and dangerous trapeze performance high above, framed by the stunning glass ceiling of the legendary building. Suddenly, the troupe’s star is dropping, screaming and flailing, toward the floor. He lands with a sickening thud just a few feet away, and rolls up almost onto the boy’s boots. Unconscious and bleeding profusely, his body is grotesquely twisted. In the mayhem that follows, Sherlock notices something that no one else sees — something is amiss with the trapeze bar! He knows that foul play is afoot. What he doesn’t know is that his discovery will put him on a frightening, twisted trail that leads to an entire gang of notorious criminals. Wrapped in the fascinating world of Victorian entertainment, its dangerous performances, and London’s dark underworld, Death in the Air raises The Boy Sherlock Holmes to a whole new level. Be sure not to miss Eye of the Crow, The Boy Sherlock Holmes, His First Case.

Download or read book Appalti pubblici 2024 written by Maria Cristina Colombo and published by Gruppo 24 Ore. This book was released on 2024-06-18T11:22:00+02:00 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quasi un anno dall’entrata in vigore del codice dei contratti pubblici “D.Lgs. n. 36 del 31 marzo 2023”, e a qualche mese dall’avvio della digitalizzazione, è parso opportuno soffermarsi su procedure ed istituti che si sono ormai stabilizzati, ma non senza criticità operative. Il volume intende affrontare questo obiettivo dai due diversi punti di vista: quello della stazione appaltante e quello dell’operatore economico. Le norme sono le stesse, ma diversi sono gli obiettivi e le possibili letture. In questo contesto il lavoro è diviso in due sezioni: una dedicata più direttamente alle stazioni appaltanti e la seconda agli operatori economici, con alcuni capitoli trasversali come quello legato al PNRR 4 approvato con la recente legge di aprile 2024. Ogni argomento è trattato attraverso un’analisi operativa, la segnalazione di prassi, pareri e giurisprudenza di questo primo anno di applicazione.

Download or read book Per qualche gara in pi written by Fabio Cintioli and published by Rubbettino Editore. This book was released on 2020-04-23T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La crisi degli appalti pubblici è un fenomeno che si manifesta con l’inerzia, con la complicazione, col fiorire di troppe gare anche per necessità basilari delle amministrazioni, con un ginepraio di regole e di controlli che hanno come sbocco la difficoltà di “fare” della nostra amministrazione. Tante riforme nel corso degli anni non hanno migliorato la situazione. Anzi è purtroppo peggiorata. Andare alla ricerca delle cause profonde non è meno importante delle proposte per uscirne. In questo libro si cerca di dire delle prime senza rinunciare ad esporre le seconde, per non perdere la sfida della ripresa dopo l’emergenza sanitaria Covid-19. Si devono però fare i conti con alcuni punti fermi del circuito istituzionale amministrativo: il modo in cui è stata declinata la tutela della concorrenza nei pubblici appalti; la prevenzione della corruzione; il mito della semplificazione amministrativa. Anche per questo si sceglie il metodo della conversazione che si snoda tra domande e risposte. Questo dà spazio a dubbi sinora inespressi nel dibattito, senza però dimenticare le obiezioni a questi dubbi basate su quel che è il “diritto vivente” in Italia. Tutela della concorrenza e prevenzione della corruzione non possono sacrificare l’interesse principale: quello di eseguire gli appalti. Il dialogo tra intervistato e intervistatore è la tecnica che si utilizza per dare alle idee maggiore immediatezza. Il dialogo è anche il modo per non rivolgersi solo ai giuristi e per spiegare ai non addetti ai lavori quel che è accaduto, avvertendoli che la manutenzione delle opere pubbliche e l’efficienza dei servizi sono beni essenziali e irrinunciabili.

Book Jack Holmes and His Friend

Download or read book Jack Holmes and His Friend written by Edmund White and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many straight men and gay men are best friends, but if the phenomenon is an urban commonplace it has never been treated before as the focus of a major novel. Jack Holmes is in love, but the man he loves never shares his bed. The other men Jack sleeps with never last long and he dallies with several women. He sees a shrink and practices extreme discretion about his gay adventures since the book begins in the 1960s, before gay liberation, and ends after the advent of AIDS in the 1980s. Jack's friend, Will Wright, comes from old stock, has aspirations to be a writer, and like Jack works on the Northern Review, a staid cultural quarterly. Will is shy and lonely-and Jack introduces him to the beautiful, brittle young woman he will marry. Over the years Will discovers his sensuality and almost destroys his marriage in doing so. Towards the end of the 1970s Jack's and Will's lives merge as they both become accomplished libertines. Jack Holmes and his Friend deploys Edmund White's wonderful perceptions of American society to dazzling effect, as character after character is delicately and colourfully rendered and one social milieu after another glows in the reader's mind. He is a connoisseur of the nuances of personality and mood, and here unveils his very human cast in all their radical individuality. New York itself is a principle character with its old society and its bohemians rich and poor, with its sleek European immigrants and its rough-and-tumble transplanted Midwesterners. With narrative daring and a gifted sense of the rueful submerged drama of life, the novel is a beautifully sculpted exploration of sexuality and sensibility.

Download or read book The History of the Nude written by Flaminio Gualdoni and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated and extremely enjoyable reference book on the historical evolution of the nude. From the Paleolithic "great mothers" to the Greek athletes, from the Venus of Urbino by Titian to Leonardo's Vitruvian Man, from the Odalisque by Boucher to those by Ingres, to the Amazons of Helmut Newton and the desolate, lifeless bodies of Andres Serrano, the nude is the theme of artistic representation par excellence. The nude body as the incarnation of perfect beauty and the suspicions concerning its sensuality imposed by Christian culture; the renewed triumph of ancient beauty in the Renaissance and the study of anatomy; the visual licentiousness of the eighteenth century and the photographic nude; ideal beauty, eroticism, pornography; the nude also as representation of the ugly and its flaunted truthfulness in the art of the twentieth century; the nude that itself becomes a work of art in the avant-garde of the post-WWII period, with performance, body art and experimental theater. These threads of the narration make for a deeply informative historical exploration of the nude in Western art, all conducted around a rich apparatus of images.

Download or read book 70s Concept Cars written by Rainer W. Schlegelmilch and published by TeNeues. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *** Reduced from $210.00 while stocks last *** Starting in the late 1960s but especially in the 70s, the most innovative Italian coachbuilders from Bertone to Pininfarina followed a radical design path. With fantastical wedge-shaped speedsters, their goal was nothing less than reimagining the car. Many of their ideas--as reflected in the concept vehicles in this book--ended up on the scrap heap of design history, while other concepts have remained influential up to the present. Rainer W. Schlegelmilch, best known for his spectacular Formula 1 photography, captured all of this 70s explosion of automotive creativity with his unique photographic eye. With his artful staging, the angular concept car silhouettes took on the curvy and alluring forms of models. Through these futuristic design concepts from the 70s, we get even closer to the spirit of that decade--one that continues to hold us in its thrall. Text in English, German and French SELLING POINTS: *Contains all important background information on the cars featured: how they came about and what became of them ILLUSTRATIONS: 180 colour photographs
