    Notes: Abstract Defeasible reasoning is concerned with the logics of non-deductive argument. As is described in the literature, the study of this type of reasoning is considerably more involved than the study of deductive argument, even so that, in realistic applications, there is often a lack of resources to perform an exhaustive analysis. It follows that, in a theory of defeasible reasoning, the order and direction in which arguments are developed, i.e. theprocedure, is important. The aim of this article is to show that debate is the most efficient procedure to argue in the presence of limited resources. To do so, there is first some general theory on defeasible argumentation, which is followed by an introduction to the problem of dialectical search. The problem of dialectical search is (or at least, should be) the essential issue in every theory on argumentation, and emerges at every occasion that involves adjudication on competing arguments. Starting with an example, it is explained that dialectical search can be best scheduled according to classical debating techniques, that work along well-tried methods. These methods (which include various forms of curtailment, interruption, and interpretation) have proven their value in keeping debating efforts within reasonable bounds. How they apply in a theory of formal argument, will be shown in this article.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Si osserva preliminarmente che, per alcune trasformazioni di fase nei solidi, la più naturale descrizione del fenomeno nell'ambito del continuo sembra essere quella basata sul moto inverse in dinamica, o sulla deformazione inversa in statica. In tale quadro, la nozione di ‘coerenza di fase’, suggerita dalla congruenza geometricocinematica tra due distinti reticoli cristallini a contatto, trova la sua espressione più significativa nella condizione di continuità degli ‘spostamenti di siti’ nel riferimento cristalline. Sulla base di argomentazioni svolte in precedenti lavori dagli autori per il caso dinamico e da M. Epstein per il caso statico e termostatico, si presuppone valida un'equazione di bilancio ‘materiale’: quella dellapseudo-quantità di moto. Si richiede che tale bilancio sia soddisfatto attraverso una superficie di contatto tra le due fasi. Tale superficie o fronte, avanzando, determina la trasformazione del materiale da una fase nell'altra. Il fronte è suppostoomotermo ed il materiale termoelastico in ciascuna delle due fasi. Un ruolo chiave è svolto dal tensore degli sforzi materiali di Eshelby. Infatti, la potenza sviluppata dalle forze di disomogeneità attraverso il fronte che avanza è unicamente determinata dalla discontinuità del tensore di Eshelby lungo la normale al fronte. Inoltre, l'espressione che detta potenza assume permette di evidenziare una quantità scalare che proponiamo di denominareforza configurazionale di Hugoniot-Gibbs per le analogie che essa suggerisce. Si sviluppa infine una trattazione parallela sulla base di una formulazione termodinamica classica del continuo. Un confronto dei risultati permette di Stabilire che la potenza sviluppata dalla forza configurazionale viene dissipata mentre il fronte avanza.
    Notes: Abstract First we recognize that the coherence of certain phase transformations in solids is most vividly expressed using the material manifold and within the kinematic continuum description based on the so-calledinverse motion. In this fully dynamical framework the equation of interest is theun-balance of pseudomomentum for thermoelastic conductors. On computing the power developed by the accompanying surface source of quasi-inhomogeneities at the phase-transition front, we show that this relates directly to the normal jump of the Eshelby stress — devoid of any kinetic energy, but computed from the free energy — a scalar quantity which may be referred to as theHugoniot-Gibbs configurational force at the front. The thermodynamic analysis also establishes that this power is dissipated as the material progresses at the front that ishomothermal. The jump relation including this dissipation is that associated with the heat propagation equation valid at regular points. In all, this approach is based on the theory of material uniformity and inhomogeneities as developed in recent years by M. Epstein and the authors. All reasonings are made in full dynamics, for finite strains, and any anisotropy in three dimensions.

    Notes: The ligand bis(2-benzimidazolyl)propane coordinates to NiII with chloride as an anion, thereby forming a dinuclear compound with the formula: [NiCl2(tbz)2]2(C2H6O)2. This compound crystallizes in the space group P21/c. Each five-coordinated NiII ion has a distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment which consist of two asymmetrically bridging Cl anions with distances of 2.3556(17) and 2.4275(16) Å, a terminal Cl anion with a distance of 2.3496(17) Å and two nitrogen atoms of the ligand with distances of 2.022(4) and 2.000(4) Å. The Ni-Ni distance is 3.5891(12) Å, while the Ni-Cl-Ni angle is 97.23(6)°. The magnetic properties of the compound, as studied in the range 5-280 K, have been fitted with a zero-field splitting parameter D (-14.3 cm-1) and a ferromagnetic exchange between the Ni ions in the dinuclear unit (J = +2.5 cm-1). The title compound appears to be the second example for a five-coordinated ferromagnetic dinuclear NiII compound of this type, and its magnetic properties appear to correlate with the ligand structure. With the availability of an increasing number of examples of such species it appears that antiferromagnetic exchange is found for all cases with the chromophore N2ClNiCl2NiClN2 where the MN2 ring is 5-membered. In the case, where this ring is six-membered, the exchange is ferromagnetic.
