Partendo dal presupposto che il Design può contribuire al processo di sviluppo territoriale, i designer dovrebbero prendere in considerazione i fattori che definiscono sia il territorio che la pratica del design. L'ipotesi è che certe condizioni legate alla società in cui operiamo (società della conoscenza o società della rete) possono influenzare la qualità dei territori e quindi la natura della pratica del design. Dal punto di vista del design, queste condizioni possono influenzare la scelta della disciplina, così come gli approcci e gli strumenti che potrebbero essere applicati. L'autore delineerà un approccio progettuale per lo sviluppo locale che impiega concetti chiave (come reti, asset intangibili, condivisione della conoscenza) e che lavora a diverse scale di progetto: prodotto-servizio, comunicazione e visione strategica.

L'obiettivo dell'idea è quello di trattare in profondità la relazione tra design e innovazione. In particolare, la creatività e la conoscenza sono le basi per comprendere ciò che vogliamo dire quando parliamo del concetto di innovazione. Le aziende e i territori non hanno la possibilità di sviluppare innovazione senza creatività e conoscenza. In effetti, il design ha un ruolo di primo piano nell'innovazione a causa della sua natura multidisciplinare e dei suoi strumenti. Il design sarebbe considerato una regia capace di "dialogare" con ogni tipo di competenza coinvolta nei processi di innovazione. Questo è possibile attraverso scambi e confronti continui.

I punti vendita del moderno grocery sono generalmente realizzati in base a logiche di funzionalitÀ ed efficienza, piů che di stupore e coinvolgimento sensoriale ed emotivo dei clienti. Anche in letteratura, la maggiore attenzione dal punto di vista dello store design č dedicata all'analisi dei contesti non grocery. Questo lavoro si propone di presentare la singolare esperienza di MPreis, catena di supermercati austriaca, che si caratterizza per valorizzare i diversi elementi di store design, tra cui in particolare l'architettura, al fine di creare identitÀ e differenziazione competitiva nei territori in cui opera. Sulla base dell'approccio di ricerca qualitativo del case study, l'analisi dei dati raccolti evidenzia il coraggio della diversitÀ, l'impegno nella ricerca estetica e il senso del dono come elementi centrali delle condotte dell'azienda oggetto di studio. Il paper consente cosě, da un lato, di includere lo store design tra le leve competitive a disposizione del retail grocery e, dall'altro, di far emergere il senso del dono e il possesso di un adeguato company ethos come componenti tra i piů imprescindibili per l'impresa del futuro.

AbstractSocial eavesdropping can guide mate choice and the assessment of competitor quality. In the endangered Leon Springs pupfish (Cyprinodon bovinus), males establish breeding territories that they defend from conspecifics and heterospecific egg predators. Females enter the breeding area to assess males and spawn in their territories. It was hypothesized that male and femaleC. bovinuseavesdrop on social interactions within male territories to evaluate each territorial male’s ability to exclude intruders and attract potential mates. Using a repeated design, a bottle containing either a femaleC. bovinus, a non-territorial maleC. bovinus, a swarm ofG. nobilis, or water was placed at the centre of a male’s territory. Territorial males received more spawns and females spawned more frequently per visit when a female stimulus was present. These results suggest that females eavesdrop to inform their mating decisions, but this may be limited to the assessment of extra-pair females within territories.

Nel 2006 la Convenzione ONU sui Diritti delle Persone con Disabilità (ONU, 2006) sottolinea la necessità di garantire il diritto universale ad un'educazione inclusiva indipendentemente dall'età, senza differenze e basata sul principio delle pari opportunità. La scuola italiana, che nel corso degli anni è riuscita a sviluppare un proprio modello inclusivo, rappresenta senza dubbio un territorio fertile per accogliere l'approccio UDL. Tuttavia, gli studi condotti fino ad oggi, nei diversi contesti didattici, dimostrano che la sfida dell'educazione inclusiva deve rappresentare innanzitutto un valore proiettato verso il rispetto della persona nella sua globalità, ed i docenti, mediante l'utilizzo di una strategia innovativa come l'Universal Design for Learning, possono co-progettare interventi efficaci nel rispetto delle caratteristiche proprie di ogni studente. In questo modo, si assiste allo sviluppo di un nuovo e moderno paradigma dell'inclusione che, coinvolgendo sia i contesti che le persone, rappresenterà una realtà differenziata e fruibile per tutti.

The progress of the practice and the debate on architecture in the Alpine region of Trentino, in the last fifty years, has been characterised by a pivotal role of the Autonomous Province, the local authority with key competencies in environmental matters and spatial organisation, on the one hand, and by the experimentation and the promotion of discussion events on architecture, on the other. In the Sixties, spatial planning was conceived as a key instrument to support the development of a mountain province. Change was the perspective, and this required the activation of landscape control procedures centred on the control of the quality of architectural projects. This was not enough to qualify the professional practice, although some architects were able to propose innovative projects and began to animate the cultural debate, to establish supra-local relationships and to consolidate the awareness of the role of the architectural project. The contributions proposed are aimed at critically examine such issues, with a particular focus on the experience of institutions such as the “Scuola per il Governo del Territorio e del Paesaggio” within the Trentino School of Management, the “Osservatorio per il Paesaggio” within the Autonomous Province and the “Circolo Trentino Architettura Contemporanea”. Factors that led a decisive evolution of the spatial planning framework in the last decade, characterised by a new attention to the landscape and to the quality of architectural design, thanks to cultural initiatives, occasions of debate, and training paths.

- Contractors queuing up and a local area undergoing continuous development are what characterise the design and planning phases of Expo 2015. As for the contents and inheritance that the event will bequeath to Milan, to the local area and to residents, all of this is placed on the back burner. The land on which the Expo site will be situated is at the centre of attention, but a potentially much vaster area needs to be assessed and exploited more fully. In this broader perspective, the area involved is that of the waterways and the historical ‘Asse Sempione', understood in a wider sense as ‘Quadrante ovest Lombardia', the pivotal junction for traffic circulation in Lombardy and for access to southern Europe. Eyes need to zoom in selectively on procedures already underway. A few strategic measures should be singled out for special attention and skills and know-how should be supervised in a coordinated manner. In this way word can be more easily spread about the added value that the area has to offer, and an ‘immaterial', barrier-free Expo accessible to the largest possible number of visitors can be fostered.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents a technique for determining average slope and terrain complexity index per regions we named "blocks"; the data will subsequently be used for digital terrain simulation in engineering design problems. We also describe a method for finding the block plane, which allows average slope to be determined quantitatively and qualitatively. It is possible to locate the steepest-descent vector by computing the attitude of the block plane. These steepest-descent vectors of terrain blocks indicate that surface runoff occurs on the terrain. We propose a technique using terrain blocks for estimating the terrain complexity index of a region. Determining average slope and terrain complexity per block facilitates visualising these parameters in the form of a choropleth map. A digital terrain model partitioned into block-shaped regions makes it possible to perform preliminary visual analysis of the territory represented, which is useful for various engineering design problems and optimal decision making in the case of multiple options.

Full textAbstract:
In 1989 the young Dutch architect Willem Jan Neutelings developed a project for the area in between Rotterdam and the Hague that was going to face, in the following years, a huge increment of population and activities. In this context Neutelings proposed his personal reinterpretation of the urban form called “De Tapijtmetropool” or “Patchwork Metropolis” .
The analyses of his work has been the methodological pretext to further investigate the different declinations of the figure of the patchwork in the urban discipline from its origins, mainly related with the work of “The Regional Planning Association of America” and ecologists such as Richard T.T. Forman, until today.
Interpreted as a general manifesto or as the explanation of a specific territorial configuration, the patchwork discourse crosses many of the preeminent topics of the modernity – the figure of the fragment, the issue of the peripheral condition and the territorial layout of the contemporary city – but also many other metaphors and researches – cities in between , the territory as a palimpsests , the city territory , the città diffusa , the archipelago city – preserving and enriching each time its precious ambiguity.
The thesis is articulated in four parts that assemble a circular story that opens and closes in the same sector of the Dutch territory. Starting with a new reading of the Neutelings’ manifesto (I) and finishing with the analyses of the political, social and territorial configuration of the Netherlands (IV), the research demonstrates retrospectively the presence of an implicit project, recognizing the elements and the typical working mechanisms of the patchwork model. The central part of this thesis (II-III) questions the operational validity of the patchwork metaphor for the urban discipline, aiming to transform the six-pages long article of Neutelings into a more coherent and grounded paradigm to interpret and design the contemporary territories.
As a project of coexistence, the patchwork deserves a preeminent role in the contemporary urban discourse, for the willingness to seek an order, even if a weak one, in a territory which is apparently missing it and to address one of the most important themes of the entire Western culture: the relationship between the one and the multiple .

Fixed offshore platforms, especially jacket type platforms, are the most common offshore structures used for Oil & Gas industry in the Adriatic Sea. In fact these structural typologies are suitable for relative shallow water depth, usually up to 250 m, and flat sandy sea floors. Most of them have been built in the last 50 years, some of them are also older, and for instance they have been designed when technological tools were not available and all the calculations were computed by antique machines or by hand.
In lieu with the actual international regulations, the following report will present the technical analysis for the design of such platform. More specifically, it has selected as model example one of the platforms designed more than 50 years ago and a complete stability verification has been computed with modern tools. Furthermore a proposal of new design of the base of this structure has been reported together with specific analysis.
The examined structure is the SPM Mooring Tower, placed in the offshore area of Falconara Marittima (AN), and owned by Api Refinery Spa.

La tesi si pone l’obiettivo di educare gli adolescenti alla tutela
delle risorse idriche in ambienti marino-costieri tramite un servizio che integri attività di monitoraggio e divulgazione scientifica della qualità chimico-fisica dei corpi idrici con percorsi di ingaggio e sensibilizzazione dei cittadini e dell’amministrazione pubblica locale. Le attività hanno l’ulteriore obiettivo di migliorare l’accesso e la consultazione dei dati inerenti al monitoraggio dei corsi d’acqua e innescare interventi per la riqualificazione dei litorali e dei fiumi. Il servizio vuole contribuire a far acquisire nell’adolescente un ruolo più attivo e una maggiore consapevolezza all’interno della propria comunità, divenendo egli stesso principale promotore e attore di meccanismi di transizione ecologica nel contesto urbano. A supporto del percorso verranno impiegate le metodologie della Citizen Science, disciplina che vede coinvolti semplici cittadini in attività di raccolta dati, elaborazione e progettazione per la ricerca scientifica. La scelta di inserire questa disciplina ha il fine di divulgare e promuovere tra gli adolescenti l’osservazione diretta come strumento attendibile per il monitoraggio ambientale. Per la specificità del target di riferimento, il servizio si rivolge agli Istituti di Istruzione Superiore come progetto curricolare al fine di proporre una metodologia didattica innovativa, multidisciplinare ed inclusiva per l’alunno e
di aumentare la qualità dell’offerta formativa orientandola verso il potenziamento delle STEM. In un’ottica di replicabilità, il servizio vuole proporsi come un format, presentato sotto forma di challenge per una maggiore attrattiva verso il target, reiterabile annualmente dalle scuole aderenti, ma estendibile ad ogni Istituto che voglia aderire alla sfida sull’inquinamento idrico e sulla sua regolamentazione, contribuendo alla diffusione di buone pratiche di attivismo ambientale su scala nazionale.

Find full textAbstract:
The work is focused on the study of the Passo della Morte landslide, the so-called landslide 3, located in northern Italy, in Province of Udine (UD). The landslide is moving at an extremely slow rate of 2-3 cm/year and has been studied for more than 15 years due to the presence of a road tunnel that crosses it.
Several features that characterise the Passo della Morte area and that are considered interesting for the purpose of building the reference geological and numerical models of landslide 3 have been described.
At first, an overview of the methods for the slope stability analysis has been carried out.
The main part of the work has been focused on the building of a numerical model of the landslide. The main objective of the modelling was to obtain a representation of the phenomena similar to those observed with surveys and monitoring. The reference data have been taken from the monitoring devices present on the landslide body and in the surrounding area.
In order to model the landslide, the commercial software RS3 has been used; it is a three dimensional analysis software based on the finite element method.
In order to build a reference model, a series of test models was built. Once obtained the reference geometry and defined the geomechanical parameters, the model was calibrated comparing its results with the data coming from the monitoring. The similarity between observed displacements and those shown by the model, and the minimal difference between the results obtained using two different failure criterions are a confirmation of the reliability of the model. The analysis was repeated implementing a groundwater surface defined based on a hydrogeological map of the area. The new results confirmed the reliability of the model.
Various attempts were done in order to implement the existing drainage adit and simulate its influence on the groundwater but problems in the definition of the boundary conditions did not permit to achieve satisfactory results.

Nowadays, the world of construction underwent a major revolution. Buildings are responsible for more than 40% of global energy consumption. Awareness of the energy performance of the building and its operation are critical steps toward sustainable development. To design a sustainable building, the total energy requirements of the building should be kept to a minimum. None of this is possible without proper building architectural design. As a result, to achieve the building with desired quality and standard, all aspects should be taken into practice at all stages of design and construction.
Energy consumption is assessed using different methods to precast a behavior of a building’s energy consumption. Many factors should be considered while designing an energy-efficient building. Therefore, computer simulation is used to simulation processes.
In this project, DesignBuilder has been used to design and simulate the performance of the cold store. In the design phase, building materials for each structural part of this cold store are defined in the software. Also, by defining two different insulators (PIR/PUR Polyurethane), there is a possibility to compare them, and it can be concluded that PIR Polyurethane has a better performance than PUR Polyurethane.
In addition, by defining various parameters such as lighting, the number of people and the time of their presence, and definition of HVAC system, the simulation can be performed. We concluded that to have the desired temperature, a heating system should also be designed for winter, therefore a heating system is defined and its schedule adjusted for the seasons when the zone air temperature becomes less than 5 °C.
Finally, by defining all the parameters and systems, the simulation was performed for a period of one year. As a result, the amount of annual energy required is calculated. By comparing the results obtained by two different insulation, we conclude that PIR Polyurethane insulation has a better result.

La principale motivazione che supporta questo studio è che un laboratorio virtuale, per sua natura, dev'essere costruito interamente al computer e pertanto, non essendo il risultato di un campionamento di un territorio reale, non è affetto da errore casuale e presenta unicamente le caratteristiche definite dallo sperimentatore.
Questa tesi presenta una panoramica sui software disponibili ed espone le metodologie identificate per creare laboratori virtuali, applicandole alla costruzione di un paesaggio virtuale a partire da un territorio esistente che, in questo caso, è una porzione della Regione Veneto.
Su tale paesaggio, per stimare l'erosione, è applicato il modello RUSLE in condizioni climatiche, morfologiche e di copertura del suolo simili a quelle del territorio esistente, per produrre scenari previsionali nei quali l'impatto dei driver climatici e degli usi del suolo è stimato dal calcolo della perdita virtuale di suolo.

Find full textAbstract:
When oil and gas fields end production, offshore installations need to be dismantled and disposed of. The set of processes used to do this could be summed up in the term Decommissioning. The Decommissioning of fixed offshore structures is one of the biggest technical and operational challenges in the O&G industry. Due to this complexity, also in term of HSE, in particular site Decommissioning could lead to potential environmental hazards which need to be monitored. The BP Miller platform is going to be completely decommissioned in the near future. Due to derogation to the OSPAR legislative framework for decommissioning in the North Sea, the Jacket footings of the platform and the contaminated drill cutting piles will remain in situ. The aim of this document is to examine the BP Miller site as a reference point to start an initial design for a subsea observatory which could be used to monitor the marine conditions around the BP Miller footings. The DELOS subsea observatory was chosen as a reference as it includes modularity in its design. This study was divided in two phases: the first phase consisted in a desktop study aimed to assess the state of art of the in-situ technology for marine environmental monitoring and the published reports about contaminated cutting piles characterization. At the end of the first phase a complete list of parameters to monitor was achieved. The second phase consisted in the conceptual design of the subsea observatory. Starting from each selected parameter, a subsea sensing technology was identified. Consequently, from the set of the chosen instruments a subsea observatory was conceived and designed following the DELOS logic which allowed adding modularity to the final project and offer the possibility to improve the design in time, following the necessary developments of the in-situ monitoring technique, which as highlighted in the first phase of the project, are steadily increasing but are far from being already effective.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractRecent international—UN-Habitat and European Environment Agency—and Italian reports have pointed out that urbanization is incessantly expanding at the expense of biodiversity and of rural lands. The radical growth of land consumption and change of land-use contribute to the increase of territorial risks and vulnerability. In particular, such phenomena are more visible within the peri-urban interface, considered as hybrid and malleable areas straddling between city and countryside realities. Even in the absence of a univocal definition, peri-urban is understood as a space where urban expansion occurs. Moreover, it emerges that such space also lacks local governance. Such uncertainty of form, identity and regulation catches the attention of a new urban agenda, which considers the peri-urban the most suitable place where to enact social, ecological and economic challenging changes. In this light, this paper aims to underline how peri-urban areas, although ecologically, socially and weak from a legislation point of view, constitute challenging territories to enact regenerative design and practices. In particular, new policies in sustainable agriculture are considered as potential solutions for the rapid soil consumption in Europe. Therefore, Campania region has been taken as our case study, because the region has a long history of agricultural practices and currently, it is closely linked to risk dynamics. It also represents an emblematic example for its innate exposure to natural hazards (related to its geological nature and geographical location), and for the ongoing man-made risks as causes of ecological and territorial damages. Moreover, land consumption in the region reached a record level in 2019, with 10% of agricultural land lost in a year (corresponding to 140,033 hectares). More than 70% of the consumed lands coincided with areas already exposed to natural hazards, both seismic and hydrogeological (Munafò, 2020). This paper assesses the results of an experimental application developed as part of the REPAiR (This research has been conducted within the framework of the European Horizon 2020 funded research “REPAiR: REsource Management in Peri-urban AReas: Going Beyond Urban Metabolism” [http://h2020repair.eu/]. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 688920. This article reflects only the author’s view. The Commission is not responsible for any use that may be made of the information it contains). Horizon 2020 European research project. We argue that the project results underline the relationship between the peri-urban interface and the soil regeneration through eco-innovative solutions. This has allowed us to link the spatial condition of the peri-urban with the production of waste and its subsequent recycle. This paper aims to further explore the research field experimented during REPAiR, expanding the materials available on the peri-urban and adding information with respect to the risk to which these places are linked.

AbstractThe chapter outlines the cultural background for applying design strategies consistent with the challenge of circularity. The contribution focuses on ecological thinking as an effective design approach to produce and implement eco-innovative strategies able at facing environmental and societal challenges of our global age. Then the chapter depicts the Repair research experience in promoting a systemic design approach for recycling and reusing C&D waste as new, anthropogenic soils in peri-urban areas. According to the EEA Report n.6/2017, the chapter posits that the major environmental challenges of the present are not about single issues, such as waste reduction or soil-loss, rather they involve systemic change and design processes, linking together economy, social habits and technological responses. Therefore, the transition towards more sustainable urban metabolism deeply depends from creative visions by which breaking the circuit “take-make-dispose” and promote new—and somehow tentative—visions for implementing circularity at local and global scale. Further postulation in the paper is about assuming the concept of Anthropocene as theoretical ground for such eco-innovative design approach. The scientific evidence of living in human-dominated ecosystems makes designers towards a paradigm shift concerning the overcoming of the typical artificial/natural dichotomy by exploring the augmented opportunities in designing sustainable and resilient habitats thanks to a more collaborative, plural and innovative design approach: “What is important and significant here is how ecology and landscape architectural design might invent alternative forms of relationships between people, places and cosmos” (Corner, ‘Ecology and Landscape as agents of Creativity’, 1997, reprint in Reed &Lister (2018), Op. Cit., pp. 40–65, p. 42). Starting from these assumptions, the paper deepens the experience of collaborative design for implementing recycle and reuse of C&D waste for producing new technical soils, according to both the regulatory constraints (and potentials) and the site-specific features. The research goal is to provide new vegetated soils by waste thanks to an innovative design process based on both circular economy principles and collaborative knowledge production. Notably, the capacity of producing creative hybridization between biotic and abiotic component seems to be the new frontier in the field of technological design and material engineering. The term hypernatural, proposed by Blaine Brownell and Marc Swackhamer in 2015, introduces the idea of a co-evolutionary process between nature and science, looking at humans’ technological capacity as an effective opportunity for creating the conditions for making biotic ad abiotic systems working together: “The ultimate aim of technology is not antinatural: it is hypernatural” (Brownell & Swackhamer in Hyper-natural. Architecture’s new relationship with nature. Princeton Architectural Press, New York, p. 18, 2015). The chapter deals with the methodology applied for promoting a sort of protocological architecture (Burke, 2007), by which facilitating the C&D waste recycle and reuse within the construction sector, and notably into the landscape project. The research starts working under the H2020-Repair project, and it has developed within further research programs about C&D waste management in urban regeneration programs developed by the Department of Architecture of University of Naples Federico II.

AbstractThe United Nation’s 17 Sustainable development Goals (SDG) can be considered as the lighthouse of the great challenges which humanity will be confronted with. Many of these goals are related to our behaviors and our “take, make, and dispose,” namely, the linear dominant economic model that, in the last centuries, is leading to an ongoing increase of resource consumption and, consequently, a huge generation of waste. In fact, the rate of both natural resource consumption and waste generation are urgent issues, especially in the urban and peri-urban areas that will require proper solutions. The city is and will be even more in the future the most affected and the major drivers of resource consumption since it is expected that by 2050 more than 70% of the population will live in urbanized areas, and cities will grow in number and size. It means that land, water, food, energy, and other natural resource are increasingly necessary, but because resources are limited, it is required to change the linear consumption model in a new circular model of use and consumption where waste is avoided. In the last few years, emerged that waste management practices are improving according to the European Waste Hierarchy guidance, but there is still a wide possibility of improvement. This chapter explores, on one hand, what means the circular city, and on the other hand how to build it suggesting some policy recommendations. Considering urban and peri-urban areas as the space of material and people flows, thus optimizing the space used by flows and improving their interactions, it will be possible to construct another step toward circularity. In that view, the circular city acquires an urban and territorial perspective that can be managed with the urban and territorial tools, measures, policies, and plans, able to link also issues like climate adaptation, resilience, and sustainability. Finally, we argue that important work must be done in the immediate future in order to re-think and re-design urban spaces, urban practices, and infrastructures, thus shift from linear to circular city.

AbstractIn recent years, the modernisation process has led to a radical transformation of the territory, producing waste in various forms (José Zapata Campos and Michael Hall in Organising waste in the city, Bristol University Press, 2013). Waste, not only in the sense of domestic or industrial waste but also in a broader concept linked to the territory and landscape’s spatial context. The concept relates to the degraded and subsequently abandoned area. Places understood as waste, areas expelled from the city and extraneous as they have no use and are now at the end of their life cycle.These areas, recognised as wastescapes (Amenta and Attademo in CRIOS 12:79–88, 2016) or a waste of land (Berger in Drosscape: Wasting land in urban America, Princeton Architectural Press, 2007), draw the and landscape’s mosaic increasingly fragmented. Also, current mobility requirements lead to a discussion on the design of road infrastructure. While in some cases the tendency is to upgrade existing ones, in others the choice is to design and build new routes. These new routes are causing many problems for the landscape, which is becoming even more devastated. A territory made up of linear elements, and ecosystem networks that physically connect urban space to environmental space create multiple landscapes within which transport networks act as a glue between the different urban poles and as a generator of abandoned areas (Russo in Techne 15:39–44, 2018).With this in mind, the study aims to analyse and assess, through spatial indicators, the potential that abandoned sites close to major road infrastructures can offer to society not only in economic but also in environmental terms.Starting from the Focus Area’s municipalities identified in the Horizon 2020 REPAiR project (Geldermans et al., in REPAiR project: REsource Management in Peri-urban AReas: Going beyond urban metabolism, 2017) for the Neapolitan context, only four of the eleven municipalities identified by the project are considered to make the analyses exhaustive and replicable in other contexts.The methodology defined the relationships between the built environment and abandoned infrastructure spaces, which cross and fragment the city and are devoid of functionality.The study had structured in three main phases: Identification of the abandoned interstitial areas of the road and neighbouring infrastructures in the municipalities of Afragola, Cardito, Casalnuovo di Napoli and Casoria (municipal territories of the metropolitan city of Naples); Analysis of the indexes of proximity to the urbanised areas and connectivity between the abandoned interstitial areas and the urbanised fabric; Evaluate these indices for the suburban areas to identify the attractiveness for future urban regeneration processes. In this sense, the attractiveness potential of abandoned interstitial spaces of road infrastructures had assessed.If included in a decision support system, these analyses and evaluations would support the definition of urban regeneration actions. In this sense, it evaluated the potential for the attractiveness of abandoned interstitial areas of road infrastructure. In this context, particular attention is paid to the environment in which we live and its protection and preservation.

The final chapter contains the proposal to rethink the policies for innovation based on the approach defined Design thinking. Particularly important is the introduction of concepts such as global order parameters, referring to a systemic view of the techno-economic dynamics, and of a complementary methodology, called Agile. Based on the proposed framework, the decision-making space of different actors (private, public) in pursuing objectives at different levels is then analyzed. In this way a multi-level and multi-stakeholder decision making process can be enriched through a multiplicity of indicators in order to timely verify the efficiency of implementation process.

ZusammenfassungCos’è il design? Per dare una risposta a questa domanda viene in aiuto una definizione di un celebre architetto contemporaneo: „nel linguaggio corrente design indica sia il mestiere di chi trasferisce valore estetico e originalità a un artefatto fisico o virtuale sia quell’artefatto medesimo. Si dice infatti comunemente che un certo oggetto è di design. Entrambi, prodotto e mestiere, sono caratterizzati da ricerca espressiva, innovazione tecnologica, eterodossia formale, contemporaneità“. La tutela dei disegni e modelli è un bene fondamentale per le imprese di qualsiasi dimensione.

Anzio e Nettuno al fine di comprendere come le aree verdi periurbane acquisiscono un ruolo di
primaria importanza nell’ambito di attività di pianificazione territoriale. Esse infatti, in qualità di
aree multifunzionali, consentono di innescare processi di riequilibrio dei flussi turistici e
valorizzazione delle aree urbane. L’obiettivo principale del progetto si è concentrato sulla
definizione di un’interazione dinamica tra sistemi sociali ed economici e sistemi ambientali
basata su una funzione territoriale compatibile con gli obiettivi di tutela e delle risorse
intendendo il territorio come substrato del processo di sedimentazione di valori storici, culturali e
sociali. This research project focused on the design of a greenway in the municipality of Anzio and
Nettuno in order to understand how green peri-urban areas acquire a role of primary importance
within the activities of a territorial planning. As a matter of fact these multifunctional areas allow
to trigger processes aimed at balancing tourist flows and enhancing urban areas.
The project aims at defining a dynamic interaction between socio-economic and environmental
systems based on a territorial function compatible with the objectives of protection of resources,
being territory a substrate of the process of settling of historical, cultural and social values.

Il mondo sta diventando un mondo di città.
Un fenomeno incessante e che si svolge a velocità crescente è quello dell’esplosione urbana
che spesso si manifesta come sprawl, ma che non è solo sprawl.
Far fronte al fenomeno dell’esplosione urbana non è semplice, anche perché non è un solo
fenomeno, ma fenomeni diversi per morfologia e per cause.
E allora non vi è una sola soluzione per controllare l’esplosione urbana, come ripete il mantra
della “città compatta” come l’unica e un po’ vaga soluzione.
Governare l’esplosione urbana vuol certamente dire accrescere la densità e concentrare le aree
urbanizzate, ma questo può essere fatto solo comprendendo le specificità dei diversi fenomeni
e identificando la “cura” corretta, con un atteggiamento progettuale lungimirante.
Come pianificare una nuova via per rendere possibile lo sviluppo di questi territori, pensando
alle interazioni e ai legami tra i diversi livelli, le diverse funzioni, le diverse popolazioni, ma
anche fra piano e progetto?
Si può partire dal presupposto che sia possibile ridurre gli effetti negativi del periurbano pur
conservandone e valorizzandone i vantaggi, ricercando dei “compromessi”, attraverso
l’individuazione di una serie di strumenti urbanistici coadiuvati da misure economico-fiscali.
La pianificazione urbanistica non può, da sola, governare il fenomeno periurbano, perché le
convenienze in gioco sono numerose e in capo ad una moltitudine di soggetti diversi; quindi si
deve operare, oltre che sugli strumenti urbanistici, anche su quelli economico-fiscali,
proponendo un riordino del sistema fiscale, integrato nella pianificazione urbanistica ed
ambientale delle città.
Proveremo a indicare come The world is today a “world of cities”.
In this world there is phenomenon that is an incessant phenomenon, that occurs at an
increasing speed: the urban explosion, that is sprawl, ma not only sprawl.
To cope with this phenomenon is not easy, mainly because it is not a single phenomenon, but a
set of related phenomena, different for morphology and different in causes. Then there is not a sole solution to control the urban explosion, as it is told by the rather
simplistic mantra of the compact city.
The control of the urban explosion needs to increase density and concentrate urbanization, but
we can operate this control only if we understand the diversity of phenomena to identify the right
treatment, designing with far-sightedness,
How to design and plan a new way to allow a development of these territories, looking at the
interaction between the different levels of governance, the different functions, the different
populations?
Uno starting point could be that it is possible to reduce the negative effects of suburbanization,
maintaining the advantages, finding a “compromise” when needed; it implies to combine
planning regulations with fiscal end economical measures.
Urban and territorial planning cannot govern the sub-urbanisation by itself: we have a complex
game with a lot of diverging actors; we must integrate planning and fiscal systems.
We’ll try to say how.

La promozione della qualità della vita urbana passa necessariamente attraverso la costruzione
di una città inclusiva, una città effettivamente "usabile" da tutti i suoi abitanti. Anche e
soprattutto da chi, a causa di una qualche condizione (permanente o temporanea), si discosta
dall'immagine dell'abitante-tipo adulto, maschio, sano, istruito, ricco e automunito e non é quindi
"capace" (o non lo è pienamente) di accedere ai luoghi, ai servizi, alle opportunità e alle
informazioni della città che sono progettate, organizzate e governate precisamente in funzione
delle esigenze e dei desideri di questo abitante-tipo.
Rilevanti sono in tal senso i progetti e le politiche che si concentrano soprattutto sulle periferie
con l'intento di promuovere la qualità della vita urbana quotidiana degli abitanti . Accanto ai
grandi (e costosi) interventi di riqualificazione, particolarmente utili sono le trasformazioni a
scala di quartiere, le "micro" trasformazioni, perché sono in grado di migliorare concretamente
l'usabilità di quella che può essere definita "città quotidiana e di prossimità", la città, cioè, che gli
abitanti conoscono, "usano" (o "userebbero" se fosse effettivamente accessibile e usabile) e di
cui possono prendersi cura.
L'articolo cerca di mostrare perché è efficace e pertinente un approccio legato ad una
dimensione "micro" degli interventi, anche attraverso il racconto di alcune esperienze sul campo
condotte da Tamalacà, un gruppo di ricerca e azione del Dipartimento di Architettura Design e
Urbanistica (DADU) dell'Università di Sassari. Upgrading the quality of urban life necessarily goes hand in hand with building up an inclusive
city, a city actually “usable” by all its inhabitants.
The kind of project that is important from this point of view will focus on the most marginal areas
of the city. Alongside the large, costly urban redevelopment interventions, transformations on a
neighbourhood scale and "micro" dimension are particularly useful.
This article attempts to show why an approach involving intervention linked with a “micro”
dimension is effective and pertinent, and also describes a significant experiment carried out by
the action research group TaMaLaCà of the Department of Architecture Design and Planning -
Architecture at Alghero (University of Sassari) in the town of Sassari.

The prefix and preposition between come from the Latin inter. It indicates the position in the middle of two things. It is a spatial and a temporal limit as inter-open, interweave, and interpose. It expresses exchange and reciproc-ity. The term in-between imbues all these meanings. It brings this open place and time where different ways of looking and living in our world mix together or complete each other in a universal perspective. We expose the interrelationships between design, knowledge, cultures, identities, and ter-ritories. We also elucidate the mixtures, miscegenation, and hybridizations between oneself and another or between a designer and an artisan. This pa-per evidences the contact zone that defines another place, which is no long-er mine or the others as told by Pratt's “between-places” [1] in an in-between-time of between-beings.

Full textAbstract:
L’attività estrattiva ha costituito per la Puglia un importante motore di sviluppo economico e
produttivo, uso del territorio legato alla sua tradizione storico-costruttiva. In particolare il bacino
estrattivo della nuova provincia Barletta – Andria – Trani (BAT), a nord di Bari, in crisi ed in
parte dismesso, è stato per la Regione uno dei riferimenti per l’ economia, non sempre sensibile
verso le indotte trasformazioni sul paesaggio e territorio. Il presente contributo si propone di
indagare quale possa essere il punto d’incontro tra il processo di pianificazione e quello
produttivo, al fine di individuare strategie con cui operare il ripristino e la restituzione di usi,
significati e valori a siti estrattivi ormai dismessi; attivando proattivamente e propositivamente
processi virtuosi capaci di innescare da un lato una migliore gestione del paesaggio e dall’altro
la necessaria innovazione nel sistema di gestione del comparto estrattivo risorse per il territorio.
Partendo dall’atto di avvio del PTCP (Piano Territoriale di Coordinamento Provinciale), attento
al recupero di cave esaurite ed abbandonate, si è cercato di definire un percorso metodologico
e progettuale, nel quale il presupposto di riacquisire le cave esaurite in un processo di sviluppo
sostenibile del territorio trova, attraverso azioni di paesaggio ripensate come le “3R”:
Rinaturalizzare, Reinventare, Riparare, proposte strategiche di trasformazione territoriale in
grado di delineare scenari futuri per il territorio e per i nuovi contesti di vita.
Operativamente attraverso lo strumento delle linee guida sono state messe a sistema le tre
azioni di paesaggio in risposta alle criticità che derivano dai processi e conflitti in atto individuati
dai progetti territoriali di paesaggio regionale, con l’obiettivo di pensare al riuso delle cave
esaurite per consolidare e valorizzare i caratteri di ciascun contesto di vita, e creare nuovi valori
e risignificazione dei luoghi. The mining activity has been an important driver of economic and productive development for
the Apulia region, representing a land use inextricably linked to its historical and constituting
tradition. In particular, the mining basin of the comprehensive province Barletta - Andria - Trani
(BAT), north of Bari, is now undergoing a crisis and has been partly dismissed. However, it has
always been an important driving force for the local economy of the region. The consequent
problems associated with landscape modification and alteration, land use,waste and sludge
proper disposal have never been sufficiently taken into account
This paper aims to investigate a possible meeting point between the planning and the
production processes, in order to identify recovery and recycling strategies, as well as
identifying how to return the dismissed extraction sites their former uses, meanings and values
by proactively activating virtuous processes capable of triggering a better landscape
management on the one hand and, on the other hand, the necessary innovation of the mining
management system, allowing it to be a territorial resource again.
Starting from the act of initiating the PTCP (Provincial Territorial Coordination Plan), attentive to
the recovery of exhausted quarries and abandoned, we have tried to define a methodological
and design, in which the assumption of regaining the exhausted quarries in the process of
development sustainable land is, through actions of landscape rethought as the "3R" renaturalise,
Reinvent, Repairing, policy proposals of territorial transformation can outline future
scenarios for the region and for new life contexts.
Operationally, through the instrument of the guidelines have been put in the system landscape
of three actions in response to the issues that arise from the processes and ongoing conflicts as
identified by the local projects of regional landscape, with the aim of thinking about the reuse of
exhausted quarries for consolidate and enhance the characteristics of each context of life, and
create new values and re-signification of places.

Els múltiples desplaçaments de persones, informació i mercaderies són els que defineixen l’època en la que ens trobem, una època altament tecnològica, dinàmica i, per alguns autors com Bauman (2007) o Sennet (2006) governada per una sensació d’incertesa vers el futur.
Les possibilitats que el ràpid desenvolupament tecnològic posa en joc, implica noves lògiques, que difuminen les tradicionals fronteres d’espai i temps, convertint-ho tot en immediat, instantani i pròxim. És en aquesta situació on prenen força les inèrcies pròpies del predomini de fluxos i de la multiplicació de les
interconnexions, que caracteritzen la societat de la informació i la comunicació (Castells, 1996, 1998).
En consonància, les ciutats estan immerses en una intensa transformació per a adaptar-se als nous reptes i donar resposta a les noves ànsies i necessitats socials i econòmiques. La ciutat es redefineix per
adequar-se i possibilitar els nous ritmes i estils de vida, doncs la societat és relaciona amb l’espai urbà d’una determinada manera, mentre que l’espai facilita un cert tipus de relació. Per nosaltres és en aquesta
relació bidireccional on la ciutat pren forma i significació.
Alguns autors com Shelly & Urry (2006) ens parlen del nou paradigma de la mobilitat segons el que les noves formes de vida serien regides per aquests constants trànsits de fluxos, tant de informacions o
dades, com de persones o de mercaderies. Trobem en les ciutats múltiples espais que faciliten el trànsit de persones. Els espais de trànsit, han catalitzat les necessitats de mobilitat i han facilitat que és
produeixin fets com la descentralització, la transformació del territori, la reducció de la percepció de les distàncies, etc.
Els espais de trànsit, segons Vivas, Pellicer i López (2008), són emplaçaments urbans que faciliten els desplaçaments i la connexió entre diferents llocs, espais contemporanis que guarden coherència amb la
mobilitat. Espais que han anat adquirint rellevància dins el context urbà i no només en són els vertebradors de les ciutats, sinó que també en són icones i indicadors de la seva potència. Alguns exemples d’aquests espais en són les andanes, els vestíbuls i els intercanviadors de trens i metros, aeroports, autopistes, àrees de serveis, algunes cadenes d’hotels i diversos vehicles com el tren, el metro, l’avió...
Aquests espais s’han convertit en uns espais vitals en l’articulació de la xarxa urbana i social, uns espais en els que es posen de manifest característiques de la societat actual, com la mobilitat, l’homogeneïtzació, la vigilància, la globalització, l’anonimat... i que tenen conseqüències importants en l’organització i planificació de la ciutat.
El nostre treball gira entorn d’aquests espais, els espais de trànsit, uns espais emblemàtics de la societat i la ciutat actual. Mitjançant la realització d’una etnografia urbana, hem observat la Barcelona actual i la seva transformació des del seu metro, un gran eix de mobilitat urbana, amb la finalitat d’entendre la ciutat i els seus usuaris/es.
Amb el nostre treball volem oferir respostes a com es viu i es transforma la ciutat, alhora que volem mostrar alguns aspectes relacionats amb els dispositius de control i tecnològics, la forma de practicar i
relacionar-se amb els espais urbans emergents, la incidència dels espais de trànsit en els processos de transformació de ciutats, entre altres aspectes. The important amount of people's journeys, information and objects, explains at the present time, a dynamic and technologic time. For some authors such as Bauman (2007) or Sennet (2006), this time is
guided by the sensation of the uncertainty towards the future.
The possibilities that fast development of new technologies imply new logics which stump the traditional borders of space and time, transforms everything into immediate, instantaneous and near. In this context
appears a predominance of flows and multiplication of the interconnections, which characterize the society
of the information and the communication (Castells, 1996, 1998).
The cities are changing to adapt themselves to the new social, economic and politic demands. The city reinvents itself in order to adapt at modern, both time and ways of life. The society and the urban space
have a bidirectional relation, and it is in that relationship where the city takes form and meaning.
According to Urry (2007) “the mobility paradigm” explains the constant exchanges and journeys (of people, ideas, objects and information) which guides towards new ways of living and relationships. In this way, in
today's city we find urban places which facilitates people’s journeys and the transformation of the urban space, the reduction of the perception of the distances or the decentralisation of the city, etc. Transitspaces catalyse the necessities of the mobility.
Transit-spaces, for Vivas, Pellicer and López (2008) are urban spaces designed to facilitate people’s journeys and mobility; they are contemporaries spaces and built through an ongoing process of multiple
complex and changing interactions.
They are places that have assumed huge relevance and upon which the modern urban network is sustained, and at the same time, inform about the power of the city.Within a range of different transit spaces we find: underground train, train platforms, connecting passageways, airports, motorways, service stations, some hotel chains and different vehicles.
These spaces are vital in connecting the urban and social network. In them are revealed the common determinations of modern society. Characteristics such as mobility, homogenisation, anonymity, vigilance,
globalisation, acceleration... are present in these spaces. These characteristics produce important effects in the organization and design of the city.
Our attention will focus on these spaces: transit-spaces. These places are becoming spacial and architectural points of reference, and they claim a central role through their design as identifying elements of modern cities and society. Our proposal for the investigation of urban spaces is the urban ethnography.
With this technique we research about Barcelona and its transformation. The space selected is the Barcelona underground train systems, a vast network of urban mobility. Focusing our analysis on Barcelona underground we are responding to the fact that they are a privileged viewing point to observe contemporary urban life, city and citizens.
With our work we want to offer answers to ways of living and changing the city, and at the same time, we want to explain some aspects regarding the control practices and technologic possibilities, the form of
practice these spaces and the effects of these spaces in the transformation of the city, for example.

informazioni senza precedenti. Inoltre le nuove tecnologie in molti casi vengono utilizzate per
semplificare e facilitare la comunicazione bidirezionale e in tempo reale fra utenti e gestori dei
servizi, tra cittadini ed amministrazioni e, più in generale, fra i vari attori del paesaggio,
all’interno di una rete di interconnessioni fisiche ed immateriali sempre più fitta e diversificata. Il
progetto ecosostenibile di paesaggio richiede, pertanto, un approccio sistemico e uno sguardo
ampio che riesca a far incontrare la tutela e la conservazione con la trasformazione e la
rigenerazione, inevitabile quanto vitale per i nostri contesti di vita, passando anche attraverso
l’uso di strumenti non convenzionali, impiegati diffusamente sia per uno studio del territorio più
rispondente alla complessità delle dinamiche reali, sia per la costruzione di un progetto comune
di paesaggio. During the last decades of the 20th century a new environmental and ecological awareness has
spread in the western world. Together with the technological and digital revolution, it has also
directed the architectural and urban design towards an integration/crossbreeding of natural,
artificial and technological elements, giving special attention to the aspects of environmental
sustainability and of energy saving at the different levels of intervention, from the “intelligent”
buildings to the network of the smart cities. Every day we witness to the creation of spaces that
are more and more interconnected, user interactive and interagent, flexible and able to
exchange information with the outside world. We are now able to supervise our life contexts as
never before by collecting and organizing a huge amount of information without precedent.
Furthermore, new technologies are used in many cases to simplify and facilitate bidirectional
and real-time communication between users and providers, citizens and administrative offices
and, in wider terms, among the various actors of the landscape inside a more and more close and diversified network of physical and immaterial interconnections. The eco-sustainable
landscape design requires therefore a systemic approach and an overlook in order to permit the
match between safeguard and preservation on one hand and transformation and regeneration
on the other. This is as inevitable as it is essential for our life contexts, as well as the use of
unconventional tools diffusely employed whether for a territorial study in accordance with the
complexity of the actual dynamics or for the construction of a collective project of landscape.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Fractal structures are unique in the sense that they are highly expandible or collapsible and yet they are capable of preserving their basic structural geometry in a dynamic fashion. This dynamic geometric invariance opens up a new territory in fractal solids, i.e., fractal structures, mechanisms and robot manipulators. Some of these structure are in the form of highly deployable mechanisms and possibly redundant, multi-axis, multi-arm, multi-finger robot manipulators whose kinematic structure is fractal. Thus, simple fractal structures, such as triadic cantor set, and fractal functions, such as the Weirstraus-Mandelbrot functions, govern the structural branching of such robots and essentially define their kinematic structure. These deployable fractal structures, mechanisms and robot manipulators are shown to be capable of generating unique, and yet unparalleled properties such as computer-controlled microsensing even down to molecular level (micromachining) and computer-controlled dynamics such as the creation of hypervelocity fractons with speeds in the range of hundreds of kilometers per second. A number of structures and mechanisms and their unique properties are presented in this paper and a simple kinematic model is presented and briefly discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Il progetto “Rewetland” (programma LIFE+ 2008 – environment and governance.
www.rewetland.eu) prevede la predisposizione di un Programma di Riqualificazione Ambientale
(PRA) della Pianura Pontina attraverso la sperimentazione di tecniche di fitodepurazione
diffusa.
Il PRA si basa sull’analisi approfondita del paesaggio a partire da quello delle bonifiche dei Papi
(XV–XVII sec.), fino ad arrivare ai giorni nostri. La finalità dell’analisi del paesaggio è stata
quella di ricomporre gli elementi costituenti i diversi ambiti paesaggistici del territorio in quadri
unitari, quanto più possibile coerenti al loro interno e confrontabili tra loro per valutarne le
qualità paesaggistiche, le trasformazioni avvenute nel tempo o in atto, le necessità di processi
di riqualificazione, le potenzialità di assorbire nuovi interventi progettuali. L’utilizzo di strumenti
gis è stato indispensabile, sia per individuare le permanenze del paesaggio storico e rurale, sia
per definire e valutare i possibili scenari di intervento.
Le azioni, i progetti e gli interventi del PRA riguardano la rinaturalizzazione dei corsi d’acqua e
la realizzazione di aree umide ed ecosistemi filtro e favoriscono l’attivazione di buone pratiche
non solo per la gestione dei canali della bonifica ma anche per quella delle aziende agricole. La
metodologia utilizzata ha permesso di interpretare le trasformazioni del paesaggio dell’Agro
Pontino e nel contempo progettare interventi e azioni di riqualificazione ambientale che
rispondano a molteplici esigenze/obiettivi: il miglioramento della qualità delle acque, il
potenziamento della rete ecologica e della biodiversità, la rigenerazione dei paesaggi tipici delle
zone umide (re-wetland) che rappresentano la memoria del territorio. "Rewetland" project (LIFE+ 2008 - environment and governance. www.rewetland.eu) requires
the preparation of an Programma di Riqualificazione Ambientale (PRA) of the Pontine Plain
through experimentation with techniques of widespread phytoremediation.
The PRA is based on a thorough analysis of the landscape from those of the reclamation of the
Popes (XV -XVII cent.), up to the present day. The aim of the landscape analysis has been to
reconstruct the elements making up the different areas of the local landscape into unified
framework, as much as possible internally coherent and comparable to each other in order to
assess the quality of the landscape, the changes through time or now being implemented, the
necessity of regeneration processes, the potentialities to absorb new project interventions. GIS
software tools have been essential, both to identify the permanence of the historic and rural
landscape, and to define and evaluate the possible intervention scenarios.
PRA actions, projects and interventions regard the renaturalization of waterways and the
creation of wetlands and ecosystem filters and promote the activation of good practices not only
for the management of the drainage channels but also for the farms. The methodology used
allowed us to read the changes in the landscape of the Pontine Plain and at the same time to
design interventions and actions that respond to multiple environmental restoration needs and
objectives: improvement of water quality, enhancement of biodiversity and the ecological
network, regeneration of the typical landscapes of wetlands (re-wetland) that represent the
memory of territory.

Full textAbstract:
Come affrontare i processi di riqualificazione quando “il rapporto tra le aree-residenza e
elementi primari” non è più alla base della configurazione per tessuti della città e la casa
diventa monumentale memoria e gesto rappresentativo dello Stato? Concentrando lo sguardo
sul periodo tra gli anni 60' e 70' si rende evidente un intento congiunto delle amministrazioni e
degli architetti, attraverso la progettazione di complessi a scala macroscopica, spesso isolati
dal contesto classico della città, di creare una visione chiara ed iconica del ruolo assistenzialista
dello Stato. Questa stagione, sottolineata da scelte compositive in contrapposizione con la
visione “ordinaria” della città e della sua crescita per tessuti, raggiunge la sua massima
espressione nel “grande segno” che fa coincidere tipologia architettonica con morfologia urbana
e racconta di un’amministrazione che vuole essere il referente diretto per la risoluzione di
problematiche sociali e risponde in maniera reattiva e molto rapida alle questioni e alle esigenze
poste dalle sue classi più bisognose. Il primo valore da riconoscere ai progetti di questo periodo
è di essere stati rappresentativi di vocazioni collettive e di averle riassunte con un gesto
progettuale dall'alto valore iconografico. La seconda caratteristica di questa stagione
architettonica, continuando a restringere la valutazione ad una constatazione dei fatti scevra di
componenti di giudizio, è la sua ampia vocazione ad essere terreno sperimentale sia in ambiti
architettonici che urbanistici. La domanda che ci poniamo è se sia possibile ripartire da queste
due valori per re-interpretare i progetti dei grandi complessi residenziali pubblici e renderli
“abitabili” mantenendone le loro particolari vocazioni. How can we deal with requalification process in parts of the city which are no longer based on
the “relation among residential-area and primary elements” and where the house has become
the rappresentative memory of programs and ideals of the State? Concentrating on the 60' and 70' period in Italy it is clear a joined intent of the administration and the architects to create a
neat and iconographic image of the protective and directive role of the State towards its citizen,
through the designing of large, unitary social housing, often off the normal urban scale and
isolated by the rest of the city. This season, highlighted by compositive experience in sharp
contrapposition with the “ordinary” vision of the city, reach its maximal expression in “great sign
design” that tends to an equivalence between architectural typology and urban morphology. The
first merit that have to be acknowlegde to those project is to have been a representative of
collective vocations through a high valued iconographical design. A second valor to be confered
to this period is its vocation on being a laboratory for both architectural and urban
experimentation. Question we are facing is, then, if it is possibile to start over on those two
intrinsic values, seep through the lens of the european directives for sustainable renewal of the
cities, for a reinterpretation of the large housing estates in order to give them back to their
peculiar potential and to make the the center of regenerations of the city itself.

Full textAbstract:
Poly-,Per-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) are versatile chemicals that were incorporated in a wide range of products. One of their most important use was in aqueous film-forming foams for fighting liquid fuel fires. PFAS compounds have recently been identified as potential environmental contaminants. In the United States there are hundreds of potential military sites with PFAS contamination. The ERDC designed and constructed a mobile treatment system to address small sites (250,000 gallons or less) and as a platform to field test new adsorptive media. The PFAS Effluent Treatment System (PETS) has cartridge filters to remove sediments and a granular activated carbon (GAC) media filter to remove organic compounds that might compete with PFAS in the ion exchange process, although it may also remove PFAS too. The last process is an ion exchange resin specifically designed to remove PFAS to a target level of 70 ng/L or less (equivalent to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Drinking Water Health Advisory). The system was tested at Hurlburt Field, a US Air Force facility in Florida and at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Mid-South in Millington, TN.

Full textAbstract:
The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is tasked with the stewardship of billions of dollars’ worth of public invested highway infrastructure. Not only does INDOT continually seek design and operational policies that foster cost effective project delivery and procurement, they also seek opportunities for revenue generation. Due to population growth and the increased demand for online connectivity and global information transmission, the fiber-optic cable industry has experienced rapid growth over the past few years. Information and communication technology (ICT) companies have long sought to achieve higher economic productivity by installing fiber-optic cables in the right of way (ROW) of access-controlled highways. Based on these developments, an experiment was conducted to measure the economic impact in Indiana. To determine this impact, a database was developed by compartmentalizing the analysis into (1) GDP per county per industry type, (2) the natural growth of GDP as a factor, and (3) the extent of contribution of broadband in the growth of GDP. A general formula was developed to incorporate the adjusted median income on both the industry and county levels, along with a broadband contribution factor. This formula was employed to determine policies that can produce optimum economic outcome by leveraging the Pareto method.

Full textAbstract:
Many residents in large Californian metropolitan areas are heavily burdened by housing costs. Advocates, researchers, and elected officials in California are debating whether transit-oriented development (TOD) could be an effective tool to mitigate the housing affordability problem by increasing housing supply and reducing transportation costs in transit-rich neighborhoods. This study contributes to this debate by estimating how much Californian families can save on transportation costs by living in transit-oriented developments (TODs). By utilizing the confidential version of the 2010–2012 California Household Travel Survey, this study evaluates the impact of TOD on household transportation expenditures by comparing TOD households with two control groups. When controlling for household demographics, TOD households save $1,232 per year on transportation expenditures—18% of their total annual transportation expenditures. When controlling for both demographics and neighborhood environment, TOD households save $429 per year—about 6% of their total annual transportation expenditures. The study confirms that Californian households save money on transportation costs by living in TODs mainly because they own fewer vehicles. About two-thirds of the savings can be attributed to transit-friendly neighborhood environment and one-third to access to rail transit, which highlights the importance of integrating a rail transit system with supportive land use planning and neighborhood design.

Full textAbstract:
While there is evidence of gender differences in leaders behavior, less is known about what drives these gaps. This paper uncovers the role of electoral incentives. Using a close election regression discontinuity design in Brazil, we first show that female mayors handled the COVID-19 crisis differently over the year 2020, which ended with new municipal elections. We find that having a female mayor led to more deaths per capita at the beginning of the pandemic a period characterized by uncertainty about the severity of the threat but to fewer deaths per capita later in the year, a period where this uncertainty was reduced. We provide additional evidence that female mayors were less likely to close non-essential businesses early on, and more likely to do so at the end, and that residents in female-led municipalities were more likely to stay at home in the weeks surrounding the election. We then show that these results can be rationalized by a simple political agency model where politicians seek re-election and where voters assess female and male politicians actions differently. Consistent with this interpretation, we show that the gender differences we find are driven exclusively by mayors who were not term-limited and thus allowed to run for re-election, and that the effects are stronger in municipalities with greater gender discrimination. Taken together, the results suggest that female and male leaders face different electoral incentives and adapt their policy decisions to voters expectations.

Full textAbstract:
The phenotypic analysis of new candidate varieties at multiple locations could provide information on the stability of their genotypes. We evaluated the stability of 11 maize hybrid candidates in five districts in East Java Province, Indonesia. Maize hybrids with high yield potential and early maturity traits derived from a diallel cross were planted in a randomized complete block design with two checks (Srikandi Kuning and BISI-2) as a single factor with four replicates. The observed traits were grain yield per hectare and harvest age. The effects of environment, genotype, and genotype × environment interaction on yield were highly significant (P < 0.01). KTM-1, KTM-2, KTM-4, KTM-5, and KTM-6 showed higher average grain yield per hectare than the checks (Srikandi Kuning = 8.49 ton ha−1 and BISI-2 = 7.32 ton ha−1) at five different locations. The average harvest age of 11 candidates was less than 100 days. KTM-4 and KTM-5 had production yields that were higher than the average yield of all genotypes in all environments (Yi > 7.78 tons ha−1) and were considered stable on the basis of three stability parameters, i.e., Finlay–Wilkinson, Eberhart–Russell, and additive main effect multiplicative interaction (AMMI). KTM-2 had the highest yield among all tested genotypes (9.33 ton ha−1) and was considered as stable on the basis of AMMI but not on the basis of Finlay–Wilkinson and Eberhart–Russell. KTM-1 performed well only in Pamekasan, whereas KTM-6 performed well only in Sampang. Thus, these two genotypes could be targeted for these specific locations.

Full textAbstract:
The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of recombinant bovine somatotropin (bST) and added dietary rumen undegradable protein (RUP) on organ and tissue weights and body composition in growing dairy heifers. A total of 32 Holstein heifers, 3 months of age at the beginning of the study were used in the experiment. Eight heifers were slaughtered at 3 mo of age to determine pre- treatment body composition. The remaining heifers were randomly assigned to treatments (n=6) consisting of 0.1 mg/kg body weight per day of bST and 2% added dietary RUP (dry matter basis) applied in a 2X2 factorial design. A total of six heifers per treatment group (3 each at 5 and 10 mo of age), were slaughtered to determine body composition an organ masses. There was a trend for increased live and empty body weights (EB:W), carcass and non-carcass components for heifers treated with bST or fed RUP. Added RUP increased rumen and reticulum weights whereas administration of bST tended to increase the weights of small and large intestine at 10 months of age by 22 % and 26%, respectively. Spleen, heart, and kidney weights at 10 months of age were increased 36%, 28% and 23% for bST treatments respectively, compared with controls. Rates of ash and protein deposition between 3 and 10 months of age were increased by bST by 7.2 g/d and 28.9 g/d, respectively, while no treatment differences were observed for rates of fat and energy deposition. Bovine somatotropin significantly altered the metabolism of growing heifers in a manner that led to increased protein and ash deposition, and tended to reduce fat percentage, and there was a similar tendency observed with added RUP. This suggests that nutritional and endocrine manipulations could increase growth rates of skeletal and lean tissues without increasing fat deposition in prepubertal dairy heifers.

Full textAbstract:
Background Transplanting vegetable seedlings to final spacing in the greenhouse is common practice. At the time of transplanting, the transpiring leaf area is a small fraction of the ground area and its cooling effect is rather limited. A preliminary modeling study suggested that if water supply from root to canopy is not limiting, a sparse crop could maintain about the same canopy temperature as a mature crop, at the expense of a considerably higher transpiration flux per leaf (and root) area. The objectives of this project were (1) to test the predictions of the model, (2) to select suitable cooling methods, and (3) to compare the drought resistance of differently prepared seedlings. Procedure Plants were grown in several configurations in high heat load environments, which were moderated by various environmental control methods. The difference between the three experimental locations was mainly in terms of scale, age of plants, and environmental control. Young potted plants were tested for a few days in small growth chambers at Technion and Newe Ya'ar. At NCSU, tomato plants of different ages and planting densities were compared over a whole growing season under conditions similar to commercial greenhouses. Results Effect of spacing: Densely spaced plants transpired less per plant and more per unit ground area than sparsely spaced plants. The canopy temperature of the densely spaced plants was lower. Air temperature was lower and humidity higher in the compartments with the densely spaced plants. The difference between species is mainly in the canopy-to-air Bowen ratio, which is positive for pepper and negative for tomato. Effect of cooling methods: Ventilation and evaporative pad cooling were found to be effective and synergitic. Air mixing turned out to be very ineffective, indicating that the canopy-to-air transfer coefficient is not the limiting factor in the ventilation process. Shading and misting, both affecting the leaf temperature directly, proved to be very effective canopy cooling methods. However, in view of their side effects, they should only be considered as emergency measures. On-line measures of stress: Chlorophyll fluorescence was shown to accurately predict photosynthesis. This is potentially useful as a rapid, non-contact way of assessing canopy heat stress. Normalized canopy temperature and transpiration rate were shown to correlate with water stress. Drought resistance of seedlings: Comparison between normal seedlings and partially defoliated ones, all subjected to prolonged drought, indicated that removing about half of the lowermost leaves prior to transplanting, may facilitate adjustment to the more stressful conditions in the greenhouse. Implications The results of this experimental study may lead to: (1) An improved model for a sparse canopy in a greenhouse. (2) A better ventilation design procedure utilizing improved estimates of the evaporation coefficient for different species and plant configurations. (3) A test for the stress resistance of transplants.

The Morganza Floodway and the Atchafalaya Basin, located in Louisiana west of the Mississippi River, were evaluated using a two-dimensional Adaptive Hydraulics model. Prior to this study, Phase 1 and 2 model studies were performed that indicated that the existing floodway may not be able to pass the Project Design Flood discharge of 600,000 cubic feet per second due to levee overtopping. In this study, all elevations of exterior and interior levees were updated with current crest elevations. In addition, the Phase 3 effort evaluated the sensitivity of the floodway’s flow capacity to variations in tree/vegetation density conditions. These adjustments in roughness will improve the understanding of the role of land cover characteristics in the simulated water surfaces. This study also provides a number of inundation maps corresponding to certain flows through the Morganza Control Structure.
