The 2019 AIDAA Congress is the biennial Congress of the Italian Association of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the Italian no-profit cultural association dedicated to the aerospace community. AIDAA was formed in 1969 through a merging of the former Societies AIDA (Associazione Italiana di Aerotecnica formed in 1920) and AIR (Associazione Italiana Razzi).In 1951, AIDA was among the founders of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) and in 1957 of the International Council of Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS). In 1992 AIDAA joined the Confederation of European Aerospace Societies (CEAS).The Congress is jointly hosted by AIDAA Rome Section, the Departments of Astronautic, Electric and Energetic Engineering (DIAEE) and of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (DIMA) of Civil and Industrial Engineering Faculty and the School of Aerospace Engineering (SIA) of Sapienza University of Rome. The degree courses in Aerospace Engineering are attended by almost 1500 students.
Therapeutic macromolecules and biologics have gained increasing importance in the last decade. Pulmonary and intranasal delivery of these therapeutic modalities, which have poor oral bioavailability, could constitute an attractive, non-invasive alternative to parenteral delivery. They can be considered for either topical use for treating diseases affecting the airways or for systemic use for treating a variety of other diseases. Therefore, this book is a readable, thoughtful, and useful guide on the latest research developments and the best options that people involved with pulmonary and intranasal route of administration and biologically active agents can bring to their practices. Furthermore, it explores the underlying scientific rationale for the strategies applied to overcome drug delivery challenges and provides insights to inspire further research in this growing area.
The three-volume set LNCS 13302, 13303 and 13304 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Human Computer Interaction thematic area of the 24th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2022, which took place virtually in June-July 2022. The 132 papers included in this HCI 2022 proceedings were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Theoretical and Multidisciplinary Approaches in HCI; Design and Evaluation Methods, Techniques and Tools; Emotions and Design; and Children-Computer Interaction, Part II: Novel Interaction Devices, Methods and Techniques; Text, Speech and Image Processing in HCI; Emotion and Physiological Reactions Recognition; and Human-Robot Interaction, Part III: Design and User Experience Case Studies, Persuasive Design and Behavioral Change; and Interacting with Chatbots and Virtual Agents.
This book outlines the legal status of Muslims in Italy. In particular, it highlights that, when it comes to Islam, the Italian legal system exacerbates the dilemma of contemporary constitutional democracies, increasingly caught between the principle of equality and the right to have rights, which implies the respect of diversity. It provides readers with a deep understanding of how domestic and external socio-political factors may muddle the interpretation of Italy’s constitutional provisions, starting with those relating to state secularism and religious freedom. It is argued that today, as never before, these provisions are torn between the principle of equality and the right to be diff...
The accommodation of religious diversity in contemporary pluralist societies is undoubtedly amongst the most salient issues on today’s political agenda, not least due to the challenges posed by migration. A subject of considerable debate is how to reconcile the demands of religious and cultural diversity alongside political unity, that is, how to create a political community that is cohesive and stable and satisfies the legitimate aspirations of minorities. This volume provides a critical analysis of the institutional accommodations and legal frameworks conceived by and/or for historical religious groups and assesses their potential and shortcomings in providing for an integrated society based on human- and minority rights protection.
Each issue lists papers published during the preceding year.

Pulmonary emphysema, long subsumed under the umbrella term “chronic obstructive pulmonary disease” or its acronym COPD, has a long and elaborate history, originating from its description at the dawn of modern medicine. This textbook combines the old with the new—the historical developments in pulmonary emphysema are retraced from its earliest depiction to the contemporary revisions of the definition, nomenclature, and taxonomy (classification) of COPD, as advocated by the Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) Strategy for Prevention, Diagnosis and Management of COPD. Additionally, the following topics of interest are included to ensure that this textbook remains au courant: the role of macrophages in pulmonary emphysema, respiratory electromyography, bronchoscopy, evaluation of lung deposition of air pollution and drug delivery, and lung transplantation for advanced lung disease. The reader with a keen interest in pursuing hot topics in respiratory medicine will benefit from this concise and disparate anthology on pulmonary emphysema.
This book offers a concise yet comprehensive overview on critical issues in monitoring and responding to new microbial threats to blood safety. It provides information on the current concerns and mechanisms for monitoring potential new infectious threats to blood safety, evaluates the response to these new threats, and explores the complex issues related to blood safety, including health economics, the relationship between levels of public health threats (actual danger) versus public concerns (perceived danger), and the challenges in coordinating international collaborative efforts. The text also includes several case studies that illustrate the existing systems used for monitoring and responding to new threats to blood safety. Written by experts in the field, Blood Safety: A Guide to Monitoring and Responding to Potential New Threats is a valuable resource for health care professionals who are responsible for the medical management of blood services.
