Una rigenerazione smart per i centri storici: da Smart Cities a Smart Heritage
2013
What is the relationship between contemporary cities of virtual networks and stakeholders with the historical centers, places of cultural and social heritage? The transformation of global cities make you thing on the contemporary relationship between man and historic center. The European proposal of the Smart Cities responds to the human need of identification in the living spaces, focusing on the six smart parameters involving people in making cities. The article lays the foundation to recognize the historic city as factor of urban regeneration starting from the analysis of some Smart historic centers in Italy and of the world most successful. The aim is to propose new smart models for the…
Energy Management and Smart Grids
2013
The paper outlines energy management concepts and the smart grid evolution. The necessity of considering energy management as a crucial innovation in load supplying to permit a more powerful penetration of renewable energy usage at the building and city level and to perform energy savings and CO2 emissions reduction is pointed out. The driving factors to enhance the current power distribution are presented, and the benefits concerning smart grids are underlined. In the paper, a specific energy management analysis is reported by considering all the electric value chain, and the demand-side management and distributed on site control actions are described. To verify the benefit of energy manag…
City-forming Rome: mappe di una città da ri-colonizzare
2017
L’unità di ricerca di Palermo è stata partecipe dell’iniziativa “ROMA 20-25. Nuovi cicli di vita per la Metropoli”, che ha chiamato ventiquattro scuole di architettura, università italiane e internazionali, a interpretare il presente urbano di Roma e immaginarne il futuro attraverso un workshop internazionale di progettazione e una mostra. Il progetto “ROMA 20-25 Nuovi cicli di vita per la Metropoli” è stato promosso dall’Assessorato alla Trasformazione Urbana del Comune di Roma e dal MAXXI, Museo Nazionale delle Arti del XXI secolo. L’area di progetto che è stata affidata all’UdR di Palermo è quella del quadrante n.12, caratterizzata dall’essere attraversata da est a ovest dal fiume Tevere…
Piezoelectric bimorph response with imperfect bonding conditions
2008
The effect of the finite stiffness bonding between the piezoelectric plies of bimorph devices has been investigated. A boundary integral formulation for piezoelasticity, based on a multidomain technique with imperfect interface conditions, has been developed. The imperfect interface conditions between the piezoelectric layers are described in terms of linear relations between the interface tractions, in normal and tangential directions, and the respective discontinuity in displacements. Continuity of the electric potential at the interface is also assumed and an iterative procedure is implemented to avoid interface interference. Numerical analysis has been performed on bimorph configuration…
Rethinking inner areas. A multidisciplinary approach to the revival of the territories.
2022
[...] Our little villages have never been as interesting as they are now, they have the feel of the past and still manage to take in even the atmosphere of this time. They have strengths and intensities that we don’t know how to draw on because we don’t look at them, we don’t know how to love them. [...] There is discomfort, there is loneliness, but there is also beauty. This is the starting point, the proper use of our ruins. [...] - Per un buon uso delle nostre rovine, from the book “Terracarne”, 2011, Franco Arminio
La street art come motore di recupero e rigenerazione urbana delle aree interne. Un progetto condiviso per lo sviluppo di smart villages nell'area Ma…
2022
The Madonie district, one of the 72 pilot areas of the National Strategy for Inner Areas in Italy in the center of Sicily, is composed by 21 municipalities that really have a great potential, due to their historical background and natural landscape, but it needs new strategies to emerge. Many people from northern cities have returned to their home villages in recent years, to live and work, but they have not found some important and necessary services as there are in smart cities, and to date, these villages do not adopt smart strategies. Many changes need to be made, one solution is to transform them into smart villages through rehabilitation, such as improving the historic center with str…
El caso del municipio de Quart de Poblet (Valencia) transitando hacia un modelo de Ciudad Inteligente y Sostenible
2020
El Ayuntamiento de Quart de Poblet transita hacia un modelo de Ciudad Inteligente y Sostenible, en la línea de los novedosos modelos de innovación urbana de las Smart Cities. Este camino se inició con la preparación de un proyecto para la solicitud de Fondos Europeos para el desarrollo regional, englobado bajo el nombre de “Estrategia para el desarrollo urbano sostenible integrado 2015-2022 (EDUSI) de Quart de Poblet”. Este documento resume y esquematiza el intenso trabajo realizado en el conocimiento de la ciudad a través de un pormenorizado análisis y diagnóstico. En primer lugar, con el conocimiento profundo de la ciudad, de su sistema urbano y sus elementos, analizando a su vez la inter…
Transport i logistyka jako potencjalne smart specialisations województwa opolskiego – próba wstępnej oceny
2019
The article presents the preliminary assessment of the activities undertaken in the Opolskie Voivodeship in connection with the implementation of the regional innovation strategy for 2014–2018. In particular, attention is focused on issues related to the methodology of identifying the so-called “smart specializations” and their practical dimension. The subject of the analysis are issues related to transport and logistics, because these areas were highlighted in both strategies – of regional development and the innovation strategy. Moreover, that sustainable transport for the mobility of residents is one of the 10 priority axes of the Opolskie Voivodeship’s Operational Program. The n + 3 rul…
A smart sustainable city : The challenges facing sustainable mobility
2019
Artykuł prezentuje zagadnienia związane z kreowaniem zrównoważonej mobilności, która jest jednym z głównych elementów smart city. Obserwujemy odejście od stricte technologicznego rozumowania miasta inteligentnego na rzecz kreatywnego rozwoju i dostarczania bodźców do kształtowania przestrzeni miejskiej, odpowiadającej nie tylko społeczeństwu, ale respektującej wymagania środowiska. Aspekt ten jest niezbędny dla rozwoju inteligentnej i zrównoważonej mobilności. Za cel opracowania przyjęto identyfikację założeń oraz cech miasta inteligentnego i zrównoważonego, a także przedstawienie mobilności jako jednego z kluczowych wyzwań smart sustainable city. Rozważania rozpoczniemy od przedstawienia g…
Smart city. Ujęcie nowych technologii w koncepcji inteligentnego miasta
2017
Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza roli nowych technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych (ICT) w koncepcji smart city oraz ocena ich udziału w tworzeniu inteligentnych miast. Smart city to nowatorska koncepcja rozwoju współczesnych miast, która nie posiada jednej, powszechnie przyjętej definicji. Spory w debatach na temat smart city dotyczą nie tylko polskiego tłumaczenia czy kwestii możliwości określania metropolii mianem inteligentnych, ale także udziału nowych technologii w kształtowaniu zrównoważonego, mądrego miasta. Rozważania podjęte w artykule mają charakter teoretyczny i omawiają m.in. różne ujęcia koncepcji smart city oraz odpowiedniego podejścia do nowych technologii. W prawi…
