"Il modo in cui immaginiamo le nostre città, il modo in cui progettiamo i loro scopi, i loro valori, e
aumentiamo la loro bellezza, definisce il Sé di ciascuna persona di quella città, perché la città è
l’esibizione tangibile dell’anima comunitaria”
James Hillman, Politica della bellezza (1999)
La città è spazio fisico e, insieme, spazio di relazione tra la psiche dei singoli e l’“anima
comunitaria”, fecondato dalla cultura.
Una città, tòpos di tale relazione, permette risonanze e corrispondenze tra il suo Genius Loci,
come senso del limite, e la sua gente se le consente la libertà, la sicurezza e la
creatività necessaria a esprimere il proprio Sé. E di “restare”, di non emigrare altrove, e
continuare a vivere, desiderare, sperare.
La giornata si articola in quattro sessioni che affronteranno i temi del turismo sostenibile, della
cittadinanza, delle politiche urbane e delle migrazioni e immigrazioni.

Some writings by Muuse H.I. Galaal
No full textAlcuni scritti di Muuse H.I. Galaal dati ad A. Puglielli da B. W. Andrzejewski - con un suo breve commento di presentazione - per una eventuale pubblicazione. I tre testi sono: A Collection of Somali Poetry, Perspectives on Somalia – Orientation Course (for experts working in Somalia) e Seeska Hiddada Soomaalida che abbiamo deciso di inserire nell’Archivio per renderle immediatamente disponibili. Si noti che i testi, anche se la data non è sempre indicata, sono stati scritti prima dell’adozione della grafia ufficiale della lingua somala (1972): si può notare – ad esempio – l’utilizzo della grafia ‘hh’ per la fricativa faringale sorda che successivamente è stata trascritta con la lettera ‘x’. Si è scelto di non correggere gli eventuali errori ortografici o elementi non chiari al fine di mantenere il testo nella sua versione originale.Qoraallo mudda hore uu diyaariyay Muuse H.I. Galaal ayaa B. W. Andrzejewski uu siiyay A. Puglielli, isagoo raacsiiyay faallo gaaban oo arar u noqon kara markii dib loo daabacayo. Saddexda qoraal waxay kala yihiin: A Collection of Somali Poetry , Perspectives on Somalia –Orientation Course (oo loogu talaggalay khubarada ka shaqeysa Soomaaliya) iyo Seeska Hiddada Soomaalida, waxaanna fekernay in aan ku biirino kaydka (Archivio Somalia), si aan uga dhigno macluumaad si fudud la heli karo.
Qoraalladan, inkastoo aan ku cayinnayn taariikhdii la qoray, waxaa la diyaariyay inta aan si rasmiga ah loogu dhawaaqin farta Af-soomaaliga (1972), maxaa yeelay, qoraagu, beddelka shibbanaha “x”, wuxuu u adeegsaday labadan shibbane “hh”. Sidaas ay tahay, waxba kama aanu beddelin habqoraalkoodiisi hore iyo ereyo aan la hubin in ay sax u qoranyihiin iyo in kale oo aan astaamaynayba.Some writings by Muuse H.I. Galaal that B. W. Andrzejewski gave to A.Puglielli suggesting that they should be published. The texts are: A Collection of Somali Poetry, Perspectives on Somalia – Orientation Course (for experts working in Somalia) and Seeska Hiddada Soomaalida.
We decided to insert them in the Archive as they are, including Andrzejewski’s short comment on each of them, in order to make them immediately available. The texts were written before the adoption of the official writing system (1972), and they have not been modified – for exemple the voiceless pharingeal fricative is in this text transcribed with ‘hh’ whereas the official transcription adopted ‘x’
Tecniche di intelligenza artificiale per l'ottimizzazione energetica di una microgrid
No full textLa crescita continua della domanda di energia a livello mondiale e la progressiva
diminuzione delle risorse energetiche tradizionali hanno spinto la comunità internazionale
a concentrare i propri interessi di ricerca sulle tecnologie e metodologie per
migliorare l’efficienza energetica e la sostenibibilità ambientale.
In questo contesto gli algoritmi di intelligenza artificiale applicati alle tecnologie
microgrids rappresentano l’elemento più innovativo per favorire il decentramento
energetico e ottimizzare l’efficienza dei sistemi di generazione e distribuzione locale
dell’energia.
L’adozione di tecniche di intelligenza computazionale e di metodologie di profilazione
automatica degli utenti finali consente di motivare il cambiamento comportamentale
degli utenti utilizzando adeguati incentivi economici. Inoltre la realizzazione di
unità di gestione e controllo, fisicamente vicine alle risorse energetiche distribuite
(DER) consente di realizzare efficacemente il bilanciamento tra la produzione e il
consumo di energia. D’altra parte i sistemi di intelligenza artificiale sono facilmente
implementabili con tecnologie software distribuite e architetture SOA. Questo facilita
la diffusione di questi sistemi grazie al superamento dei problemi di complessità
computazionale e abilita l’implementazione distribuita delle operazioni di controllo
su distretti energetici di dimensione variabile. Il risultato è un incremento della
responsività, sicurezza, affidabilità dell’intero sistema elettrico, nonché la minimizzazione
delle perdite connesse alla distribuzione dell’energia generata da centrali
remote a vantaggio di una maggiore sostenibilità ambientale
The double-edged sword of human rights treaties as a “lock-in formula” for countries seeking foreign investments : the extent to which host states can invoke human rights provisions as a defense against foreign investors
No full textThe image of a “double-edged sword” or “double-mouthed sword”, seems to first appear in the
Bible, to indicate that the truth of God is all-permeating, bringing to light the real thoughts and
intents of the heart with a devouring, sharp power. Literally, a “double-edged sword” is a
weapon which cuts either way and over the time, it has assumed the metaphoric meaning of
something that “applied to an argument… makes both for and against the person employing it”.
Nowadays, more and more countries ratify human rights treaties and submit themselves to the
enforcement mechanisms attached thereto, therefore taking on great sovereignty costs.
According to scholars, this is used by developing countries and emerging democracies as a sign,
to the rest of the world, of their willingness to lock-in liberal policies and to show their
commitment to consolidate the rule of law, in an attempt to attract foreign investments and make
their capital flow.
Investors’ choice of trusting host States’ signing of human rights treaties may well become a
double-edged weapon against them: if on the one hand, developing countries’ adherence to
human rights regimes is a guarantee that they will abide by international standards, on the other
hand, human rights norms can be invoked by host States to justify breaches of the Bilateral
Investment Treaty and be, therefore, detrimental to foreign investors. Many define this
phenomenon as a “tension” between the investment law and the human rights realms.
This study demonstrates that, from a theoretical perspective, there is no actual tension, nor threat
of fragmentation of international law. The case law of arbitral tribunals has also shown a positive
trend in taking into consideration human rights arguments in resolving investment disputes,
although the system is far from being perfect. To this end, while international investment
arbitration is a powerful and effective tool to resolve investment disputes, when the core issues
deviate from traditional economic arguments, investment tribunals may not be the perfect fit.
In an attempt to identify a suitable mechanism that would offer stronger guarantees for human
rights arguments to be taken into consideration in investment proceedings, this study claims that
a review of an award limited to national or international ordre public grounds, available at the
stage of enforcement or annulment of the investment award is the least invasive and most
reasonable solution to give host States a second chance against an award disregarding the host
State’s human rights obligations owed to the population under its jurisdiction.
Ultimately, to avoid any sort of warfare and metaphors attached thereto, investors and States,
taking cognizance of today’s new legal order based on the global governance model, should begin
a dialogue that would craft in the agreements new rules insuring that foreign investments
support the public interest
Subsurface flow and transport modelling at the hillslope scale
No full textIn hilly and humid forest areas with highly conductive soils, subsurface flow consider as the main
mechanism of stream flow generation and responsible for the transport of solutes into the surface water
bodies which is transported through the subsurface soil. However, the contribution of the subsurface flow
is poorly represented in current generation of land surface hydrological models (LSMs). The lack of
physical basis of their common parameterizations precludes a priori estimation, which is a major
drawback for prediction in ungauged basins. This thesis is organized in to three sections which analyse
the subsurface flow and transport through numerical modelling starting from a simple analysis of
homogenous system to complex hillslope with variable soil and topographic properties.
First, the relation Q(S) (where Q is the discharge and S is the saturated storage in the hillslope), as a
function of some simple structural parameters is evaluated through two-dimensional numerical
simulations and makes use of dimensionless quantities. The method lies in between simple analytical
approaches, like those based on the Boussinesq formulation, and more complex distributed models. The
results confirm the validity of the widely used power law assumption forQ(S) . Similar relations can be
obtained by performing a standard recession curve analysis.
Second, physically based parameterization of the storage-discharge relationship relating to subsurface
flow is developed using the Richards’ equation. These parameterizations are derived through a two-step
up-scaling procedure: firstly, through simulations with a physically based subsurface flow model for
idealized three dimensional rectangular hillslopes, accounting for within-hillslope random heterogeneity
of soil hydraulic properties, and then through subsequent up-scaling to the catchment scale by accounting
for between-hillslope and within-catchment heterogeneity of topographic features. These theoretical
simulation results produced parameterizations of the storage-discharge relationship in terms of soil
hydraulic properties, topographic slope and their heterogeneities that were consistent with results of
previous studies. The resulted parameterization is regionalized across 50 actual catchments in eastern
United States, and compared with the equivalent empirical results obtained on the basis of analysis of
observed streamflow recession curves, revealed a systematic inconsistency. It was found that the
difference between the theoretical and empirically derived results could be explained, to first order, by climate in the form of climatic aridity index.
Third, the performances of four different models of solute transport in catchments were analysed. The models employ the concept of travel time distribution. A recapitulation and critical analysis of the models and their basic assumptions is performed first, emphasizing their limitations and potential problems arising in their application. Then, detailed numerical experiments are used as a benchmark for the calibration and the assessment of the models’ capabilities to simulate transport. The scope of the exercise is to test the performance of the models and their limitations in the ideal case in which the catchment system and all the hydrological variables (flow, concentration, storage, etc.) are perfectly known at any level of detail. The performance of the models and their limitations is presented and discussed. The results suggest that a time invariant formulation of the travel time distribution is usually inappropriate and not much effective in predicting transport
