THE SEMANTIC NETWORK OF THE LATIN PREPOSITION PER: A DIACHRONIC INVESTIGATION
2020
Proponiamo qui i risultati di uno studio corpus-based sugli slittamenti diacronici osservabili nel network semantico della preposizione per in latino. Sulla base della Cognitive Grammar, descriviamo la semantica di per situandola lungo un continuum che procede dal concreto all’astratto, a partire da un contenuto schematico originario; discutiamo, quindi, i percorsi attraverso i quali i nuovi significati astratti emergono attraverso sli ttamenti metonimici, focalizzando la nostra attenzione sui ruoli causali e sulla caratteristica di animatezza.
Specificazione del colore di provini di terracotta calatina
2011
La classificazione della ceramica da scavo prevede l’attribuzione di una tinta ad ogni coccio rinvenuto, ma l’uso regolare di un sistema per la specificazione del colore è ad oggi un problema aperto. Gli archeologi prediligono le Munsell Soil Color Chart ma la classificazione che ne deriva, oltre che della soggettività insita in tale sistema, soffre di un’ulteriore variabile legata alla difficile realizzazione sui siti di scavo delle condizioni di illuminazione controllata necessarie per il confronto tra le tavole e i cocci. Il colore della ceramica è inoltre fortemente dipendente dalle condizioni di cottura per cui anche manufatti realizzati con le stesse materie prime possono presentare e…
L’università nella città. Parigi e il quartiere Masséna Rive Gauche
2009
The main topic of this abstract takes into the emblematic aspects of the ambitious plan of transformation Rive Gauche, operating in Paris, and analyses the reasons why such as universities facilities has been reintroduced in the city, inverting the main practise now diffused in many European and Italian cities, which is to locate university poles far away from city centres. The site Masséna Rive Gauche, in the east of Paris, is occupied by the bundle of the external railroads of the Gare d’Austerliz. Even when standing as a not interesting place, marked by hard urban fractures, the site has shown great potentialities of transformation for its central location, and for longing the Seine fore…
L'attaccamento ai luoghi come modello interpretativo delle relazioni dell'uomo con la cultura. Una ricerca su un campione di ragazzi tunisini della c…
2014
L'attaccamento al luogo è un essenziale bisogno umano in grado di nutrire il senso dell'identità di individui e collettività, a prescindere dai cambiamenti della società. Intento principale in questo lavoro di tesi è quello dell'integrazione, legato al fenomeno dell' intercultura. Il lavoro di tesi è riferito nello specifico nella città di Mazara del Vallo, centro nevralgico di incontro di culture. Ho scelto di indagare la percezione del luogo da parte della popolazione immigrata, coinvolgendo in particolare gli adolescenti che costituiscono la cosiddetta "seconda generazione", e confrontandone le opinioni con quelle espresse dai coetanei autoctoni. L'aspetto più propriamente statistico rig…
A model for multilayered beams undergoing end loads
2013
A formulation for layered beams undergoing end loads, namely axial, shear and bending actions, is developed and presented in this paper. A layer-wise kinematical model is first derived so that the point-wise balance relationships are fulfilled at the layer level. Successively, by enforcing the interface continuity conditions and taking the traction–free conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the laminate into account, the layer-wise kinematical quantities are written in terms of generalized kinematical variables representative of the beam displacements field. The beam problem is then formulated in terms of these generalized variables leading to a model that shows the positive characte…
A Theory of Laminated Beams Subjected to Axial, Bending and Shear Load
2013
A theory of laminated beams subjected to axial, bending and shear loads is presented in this paper. The kinematical model employed to describe the laminated beam displacement field is layer-wise in nature. Moreover it is such that the equilibrium equations and the continuity of the stress components at plies interfaces are satisfied. By using the whole set of interface continuity conditions in conjunction with the traction –free conditions on the beam top and bottom surfaces the layer-wise kinematical quantities are written in terms of the mechanical primary variables pertaining to one layer only, which are then expressed in terms of the laminated generalized displacements. The solution for…
Virtual element method for computational homogenization of composite and heterogeneous materials
2020
Abstract In this study, a two-dimensional multi-region framework, based on the use of the Virtual Element Method (VEM), is developed for computational materials homogenization and applied to different classes of widely employed heterogeneous materials. The VEM has recently emerged as a powerful generalisation of the Finite Element Method capable of dealing with very general polygonal mesh elements, including non-convex or highly distorted elements. Such features are appealing for the treatment of problems whose analysis domains present complex or statistical morphological features, which would generally require careful and time-consuming mesh/data preparation and regularization. In this wor…
Ritz Model for Damage Analysis in Variable Angle Tow Composite Plates
2022
In this work, a Ritz method is developed for progressive damage analysis of multilayered variable angle tow (VAT) composite plates under geometrically non-linear strains. The proposed model adopts a first order shear deformation theory and considers geometric non-linearities through the von Karman assumptions. A meso-modelling approach based on Continuum Damage Mechanics is adopted for analysing the initiation and evolution of damage. The onset of damage is predicted using the Hashin’s criteria. Four damage indices are defined and computed for expressing the degradation of the mechanical properties of the material, both for fibers and matrix under either tension and compression loading. A s…
Discontinuous Galerkin models for composite multilayered shells with higher order kinematics
2021
Composite multilayered shells are widely employed in aerospace, automotive and civil engineering as weight-saving structural components. In multilayered shells, despite its versatility, the interplay between the curved geometry and the properties of the composite layers induces a complex distribution of the mechanical fields, which must be accurately resolved to safely employ generally curved composite shells as load-bearing structures. The problem can be addressed through the two-dimensional shell theories, which are based on suitable assumptions on the behavior of the mechanical fields throughout the thickness of the considered structures and are a viable strategy for reducing the computa…
A computational aeroelastic framework based on high-order structural models and high-fidelity aerodynamics
2023
A computational framework for high-fidelity static aeroelastic analysis is presented. Aeroelastic analysis traditionally employs a beam stick representation for the structure and potential, inviscid and irrotational flow assumptions for the aerodynamics. The unique contribution of this work is the introduction of a high-order structural formulation coupled with a high-fidelity method for the aerodynamics. In more details, the Carrera Unified Formulation coupled with the Finite Element Method is implemented to model geometrically complex composite, laminated structures as equivalent bi-dimensional plates. The open-source software SU2 is then used for the solution of the aerodynamic fields. T…
