It's a great pleasure to welcome you to this very first recognition ceremony for the Omtvedt Innovation Awards. We are present here to honor innovation strengths of the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources, and certainly the four faculty members receiving today's awards are greatly deserving of this recognition. Just hearing about their work is gratifying!

L'elaborato mostra in un primo momento i poteri del linguaggio, inteso come diretta espressione della persona. In un secondo momento la ricerca si sofferma sui poteri particolari della metafora. La metafora è in grado se usata in maniere consapevole di modificare il nostro rapporto con la comunità e quello con noi stessi.

The episodic occurrence of debris flow events in response to stochastic precipitation and wildfire events makes hazard prediction challenging. Previous work has shown that frequency-magnitude distributions of non-fire-related debris flows follow a power law, but less is known about the distribution of post-fire debris flows. As a first step in parameterizing hazard models, we use frequency-magnitude distributions and cumulative distribution functions to compare volumes of post-fire debris flows to non-fire-related debris flows. Due to the large number of events required to parameterize frequency-magnitude distributions, and the relatively small number of post-fire event magnitudes recorded in the literature, we collected data on 73 recent post-fire events in the field. The resulting catalog of 988 debris flow events is presented as an appendix to this article. We found that the empirical cumulative distribution function of post-fire debris flow volumes is composed of smaller events than that of non-fire-related debris flows. In addition, the slope of the frequency-magnitude distribution of post-fire debris flows is steeper than that of non-fire-related debris flows, evidence that differences in the post-fire environment tend to produce a higher proportion of small events. We propose two possible explanations: 1) post-fire events occur on shorter return intervals than debris flows in similar basins that do not experience fire, causing their distribution to shift toward smaller events due to limitations in sediment supply, or 2) fire causes changes in resisting and driving forces on a package of sediment, such that a smaller perturbation of the system is required in order for a debris flow to occur, resulting in smaller event volumes.

Entender el desplazamiento que se ha producido, tanto en los procesos proyectuales como en la construcción, entre la arquitectura contemporánea y la arquitectura moderna a través de una serie de conceptos aplicados a la calle corredor. Para este complicado proceso comparativo se ha seleccionado la calle corredor del complejo del Híbrido Enlazado o Linked Hybrid de Steven Holl, como nuevo paradigma de calle corredor contemporánea. ABSTRACT. Understanding the shift that has occurred in both the project processes such as construction, between contemporary architecture and modern architecture through a series of concepts applied to the street corridor. For this complicated process is selected comparative Street corridor Linked Hybrid complex by Steven Holl, as a new paradigm of contemporary street corridor.

Esta tesis doctoral analiza y evalúa el impacto, alcance e influencia de los filmes comprendidos en lo que ha dado en llamarse el ciclo de acción de Hollywood entre los años 1980 y 2015 —el ciclo posee etapas netamente diferenciadas: «musculosa», «acrobática» y «inhumana»—. Mediante el estudio de tres vertientes —industria, autoría y el cine de acción—, se ha puesto en contexto este tipo de cinematografía dentro de un escenario de entretenimiento multinacional —donde el cine es una de las múltiples for-mas artísticas de entretenimiento basadas en la narrativa, junto a los videojuegos, la música, la literatura, etc.— y globalizado —el cine de Hollywood, la industria más impor-tante del mundo en términos económicos, lo es no solo por sí misma, sino por su im-pacto en el mercado internacional—. En este sentido, el cine de acción, dadas sus carac-terísticas intrínsecas más elementales, se ha manifestado como un vehículo narrativo y artístico idóneo para la exportación del entretenimiento de Hollywood —así como su ideología— a lo largo de todo el mundo. A través del análisis de una de las obras cinematográficas más consistentes y coherentes del ciclo de acción Hollywood —la obra de Steven Seagal: actor, productor, guionista, director, compositor musical y coreógrafo—, la presente tesis ofrece una pro-funda reflexión sobre el fenómeno de la acción en el cine, su origen, su alcance y sus más habituales manifestaciones. Argumenta, además, la imposibilidad de concebir un cine narrativo sin acción —en mayor o menor medida— en su seno. El estudio de la obra de Steven Seagal —y su clasificación en etapas: clasicista, manierista y metadiscursivo— permite extraer algunas de las más relevantes caracterís-ticas y contradicciones de este tipo de filmes, al tiempo que ofrece un nuevo paradigma de análisis centrado en la influencia autoral del actor en esta cinematografía y/o en los datos de carácter cuantificable extraídos de los mismos —número de escenas de acción, duración de las mismas, porcentaje de acción por filme, etc.
