A new sustainable food delivery platform
2022
In recent years, the food delivery business has expanded with great success and during the last months, pandemic have contributed to the growth of online food delivery. Consequently, with this fast growth of the online food delivery commerce, it’s important to analyze its environmental effects. In fact, the downside is represented by the enormous volume of waste produced by this market, consisting of packaging mostly made with materials such as paper, cardboard, plastic, and aluminum; a problem which, in relation to the volume of orders and the limits of separate collection that is not always efficient, leads to a quantity of unmanaged waste. This study aims to assess the impact of urban fo…

A multi-technique simultaneous approach for the design of a sailing yacht
2015
In this paper, most significant steps involved during the whole process of designing a sailing yacht are outlined. In particular, a novel simultaneous approach has been proposed to optimize the design process of a sailing yacht. Analytical resistance prediction models are simultaneously used with CAD systems and computational fluid dynamics tools to find, in the more effective way, the best solution for the chosen design conditions. As a general rule, in fact, once the target point has been decided, task of the designer is the definition of those systems of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic forces that are in equilibrium when the boat sails at its target. Unfortunately, a multi-purpose yacht doe…
A New Approach to Evaluate the Biomechanical Characteristics of Osseointegrated Dental Implants
2019
Tooth loss is a common pathology that affects many people. Dental osseointegrated implants are the ideal solution to restore normal functionality in partially or completely edentulous patients. The not perfect osseointegration and the fixture fracture are the main causes of failure for these kinds of implant. To avoid these drawbacks, several studies have been conducted to analyse the behaviour of dental implants. Aim of this work is to analyse the biomechanical behaviour of three different endosseous dental implants. For this purpose, a new numerical model has been developed to simulate different levels of osseointegration and to evaluate the stress values on the bone at different times. I…

GETTING A MULTIMEDIA MESSAGE ACROSS IN PALERMO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ARTISTIC HERITAGE IN AN AREA WITH A LOW RATE OF DEVELOPMENT
2000
It is not that our cultural heritage should be regarded as riches that may be turned to profit; it is that the decay into which many monuments and historic sites have fallen by making them part of society's wealth-generating structures would represent an opportunity for otherwise run-down areas to get back on their feet again. For that to happen, communication will be an indispensable tool, making our cultural wealth easily accessible to all and allowing it to be taken advantage of. Palermo has this problem. It has a marvellous cultural heritage but no global plan for keeping the outside world informed and bringing itself to the attention of potential visitors.
Essere prospettici. Be perspective
2012
La scienza della rappresentazione per le sue preponderanti finalità applicative offre interessanti occasioni per promuovere sempre più nuove e specifiche ricerche. L’indagine di Laura Inzerillo sulle implicazioni geometrico-proiettive da applicare per una sempre più appropriata costruzione di immagini dell’Architettura e dell’Ambiente, rileva il possesso di una chiara impostazione teorica ed una pregevole versatilità discorsiva nel campo delle immagini prospettiche. In particolare modo apprezzo lo sforzo di sviluppare i metodi grafici indipendentemente dal dominio della rappresentazione digitale; lo sviluppo di un metodo che consente di ottenere facilmente la prospettiva da punti di vista c…
C'è un pacco per lei. Nuovi packaging per nuovi consumatori
2015
Attraverso l’e-commerce possiamo gustare le eccellenze tipiche di un territorio, possiamo ricevere a casa prodotti freschi e di qualità o l’ultimo ritrovato elettronico, grazie non solo al web, ma anche alla logistica e alla cura dedicate al packaging. L’articolo approfondisce il tema del packaging nelle piccole attività imprenditoriali che si affidano alla rete per la loro distribuzione. Il settore scelto è quello dell’agroalimentare.
Il tema del paesaggio nel design per la valorizzazione del territorio
2019
L’obiettivo della valorizzazione e fruizione delle risorse territoriali connesse al patrimonio, alle attività, agli insediamenti, ai valori identitari delle comunità e delle persone, non può non prendere le mosse dalla peculiarità del paesaggio, un “palinsesto” ricchissimo di implicazioni culturali che intrecciano agli aspetti geografici e naturalistici, i processi produttivi, le forme e le materie degli insediamenti, i saperi e le storie condivise dalle comunità. Si tratta per il design di un campo di sperimentazione progettuale vastissimo, coni diversi aspetti tematici e metodologici, esemplificati in alcuni studi progettuali sviluppati come elaborazioni di laurea in Design.
Movements by Drawing: Avant-Garde Set-Design and Sound Landscapes
2018
The article deals with the study of visual images produced by the movement through the drawing’s set-design realized between 1920 and 1930, moment of theatre revolution, which saw the cooperation of different sectors of art, including photography, painting, architecture, cinema, dance, sculpture, and music. The visual values that triggered the theorization of the artistic avant-garde and, subsequently, the production of the scenographic drawing, in form and space, constitute a corollary of dynamic systems, a metaphor of the deconstructed movement through the figuration of the idea and at the same time signification of the interpretative distortion. The aim is to deepen the issue of movement…
