Communities of fanatical football fans: Social formation, identities, values and social conflicts

The research focuses on the social characteristics, social composition, attitudes, perceptions and identities that are formed within the communities of fanatical football fans in Greece. The research is based on a deep description of the phenomenon through inter-method approaches and the use of heterogeneous research data (questionnaire, life narratives, observation, analysis of songs and graffities)

Design of Advanced Human–Robot Collaborative Cells for Personalized Human–Robot Collaborations

Industry 4.0 is pushing forward the need for symbiotic interactions between physical and virtual entities of production environments to realize increasingly flexible and customizable production processes. This holds especially for human-robot collaboration in manufacturing, which needs continuous interaction between humans and robots. The coexistence of human and autonomous robotic agents raises several methodological and technological challenges for the design of effective, safe, and reliable control paradigms. This work proposes the integration of novel technologies from Artificial Intelligence, Control and Augmented Reality to enhance the flexibility and adaptability of collaborative systems. We present the basis to advance the classical human-aware control paradigm in favor of a user-aware control paradigm and thus personalize and adapt the synthesis and execution of collaborative processes following a user-centric approach. We leverage a manufacturing case study to show a possible deployment of the proposed framework in a real-world industrial scenario
