Digital Architectures Generated Using Forces in Urban Environment
2008
A paper, a description of a software application is given, which allows to generate tridimensional models of buildings, directly inside a geo referential context, following a parametric approach, in which the volume of the building is put in direct relation with forces/law bonds emerging from the urban context. The user is, therefore, able to interactively operate within a project process, in which by changing the parameters values and by verifying in real time, the results of the changes, he/she is able to evaluate all possible infinite scenarios. The system,thought for Trento’s (Italy) urban context, may also be applied on other cities.
Cloud product capability assessment method
2015
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on lisätä osaamista tuotehallintaan, miten IT-palveluhallinta- ja kokonaisarkkitehtuurimenetelmiä voidaan integroida pilvipalveluiden tuotteistamiseen. Tutkimuksen toisena tavoitteena on rakentaa uusi pilvipalveluiden kyvykkyyksien hallintamenetelmä, jonka avulla pilvipalveluiden tuotteistusta voidaan hallita ideasta markkinoille saamiseen asti. Uusi menetelmä on tarkoitettu tuote- ja projektipäälliköille sekä arkkitehdeille, jotka työskentelevät pilvipalveluiden kanssa. Pilvipalvelulle luodaan liiketoiminnan näkökulmasta uusi määritelmä, annetaan lyhyt esittely pilvipalveluiden tuotehallinnasta sekä määritellään tarve liiketoiminnan ketteryydelle. IT-näkökulmassa tu…
Zweifamilienhaus/Double Family House in Marina di Caronia
2006
L’articolo descrive un’opera, di cui è progettista l’autore, costruita lungo la costa tirrenica siciliana. Inserito nel catalogo del Premio Internazionale di Architettura ECOLA (edizione 2006) l’articolo rappresenta una significativo contributo al tema del Premio orientato alla documentazione delle problematiche costruttive dell’architettura in Europa.
Inside Cover: Hydrogen-Bonded Open-Framework with Pyridyl-Decorated Channels: Straightforward Preparation and Insight into Its Affinity for Acidic Mo…
2017
International audience; A hydrogen-bonded open framework with pores decorated by pyridyl groups was constructed by off-charge-stoichiometry assembly of protonated tetrakis(4-pyridyloxymethyl)methane and [Al(oxalate)(3)](3-), which are the H-bond donor and acceptor of ionic H-bond interactions, respectively. This supramolecular porous architecture (SPA-2) has 1nm-large pores interconnected in 3D with large solvent-accessible void (53%). It demonstrated remarkable affinity for acidic organic molecules in solution, which was investigated by means of various carboxylic acids including larger drug molecules. Competing sorption between acetic acid and its halogenated homologues evidenced good sel…
Palermo 2018 i portali. Architetture e culture della tradizione costruttiva siciliana
2018
Il viaggio tra i portali monumentali è una rivisitazione inedita della città. Fare un giro nel centro storico di Palermo è un vero e proprio viaggio nella storia che solo un occhio attento e preparato comprende. I segni della sua ori- gine sono ancora leggibili, così come le sue trasformazioni sono impresse, nelle strade e nelle facciate di palazzi e chiese. Il fascino di questa città sta forse proprio in queste modificazioni e sovrapposizioni, in questa ricerca del documento che è storia e tecnologia insieme perché la storia si è impressa nella materia che la sostanzia. Lo studio dei portali di Palermo è frutto di una ricerca internazionale che ha per tema la lettura del costruito storico …
L’effet des pots acoustiques du caveau phonocamptique de la cathédrale de Noyon : analyse modale et performance chantée
2016
International audience; Au CFA de 2014 nous présentions le caveau phonocamptique de la Cathédrale de Noyon qui comporte, dans un espace souterrain réduit (15 m²), un nombre important de pots acoustiques (64). L’étude des livres liturgiques et de la documentation de la cathédrale (XVe-XVIIe siècles) ne permet pas à ce jour d’identifier le rôle et l’usage de ce caveau. Pourtant, les études archéologiques et acoustiques que nous avions présentées en 2014 montraient le soin qu’avaient pris les bâtisseurs pour élaborer cet espace : deux modèles de pots de hauteurs différentes, correspondant à deux fréquences moyennes proches d’une quarte musicale, une répartition choisie dans l’espace et un trav…
A Power Law Behavior in the Incentivized Italian Photovoltaic Market
2018
The Italian photovoltaic (PV) marketis analyzed by using the data contained in the database that describes all PV Plants installed in Italy under the incentive program called “2nd Conto Energia”. It is shown that the cumulative probability distribution of the size of the installed PV plants has a broken power tail. An approach to partially quantify the effect of the economic, juridical and technical rules is introduced in order to show how the regulatory body influences the power tail of the cumulative probability curve.
Measurement and communication interfaces for distributed generation in smart grids
2013
The aim of this work is to perform a feasibility study on the measurement and communication strategies for the development of a new generation of interface devices for distributed generators and their integration on smart grids. The communication system can use one or more technologies, at the various levels, creating a low cost network infrastructure, in the framework of a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) architecture. As regards the measurements, the attention is focused on the anti-islanding protection, based on a hybrid solution, which makes use of local measurements and communications with the grid, at both MV and LV level by employing the PLC technology. Some simulatio…
Articulating the Practice Architectures of Collaborative Research Practice
2016
This chapter explores a collaborative practice of comparative data analysis through the researching activities of four researchers from Australia and Finland. We interrogate the ontological and empirical reality we experienced while engaged in a practice of analysing narrative data on mentoring. In this chapter, we are not reporting on the outcomes of our analysis of mentoring practice; instead we focus on our collaborative engagement, articulating the practice architectures of our research practice. This collaborative research practice was pre-figured by: (1) philosophical traditions instituted through a theory of practice architectures; and (2) normalised practices of researching mentorin…
Miten muuttaa käytäntöjä ihmisen ja luonnon kannalta kestäviksi? : ekososiaalinen sivistys käytäntöarkkitehtuuriteorian valossa
2023
Aikamme suurin haaste ei ole luotettavan tiedon puuttuminen vaan toimintatapojemme muuttaminen. Kasvatus ja koulutus ovat ratkaisevia, jotta käytäntöjämme voisi muuttaa sosiaalisesti ja ekologisesti kestävämmiksi maapallon ekosysteemien ollessa kriisissä. Tässä artikkelissa hahmotellaan käytäntöteoreettista näkökulmaa kestävän elämänmuodon edistämiseksi kasvatuksen ja sivistyksen avulla. Ratkaisuksi ongelmaan on ehdotettu ekososiaalisen sivistyksen lisäämistä. Perinteinen tulkinta sivistyksestä on kuitenkin ongelmallinen sen ollessa kognitiivisesti painottunutta, abstraktia ja ihmiskeskeistä. Ehdotamme sivistyksen tulkintaa, joka painottaa käytäntöjen ontologista ensisijaisuutta. Huomio koh…
