La ricostruzione della città europea
No full textIl volume raccoglie i contributi dei partecipanti al Seminario
“Ricostruire la città europea”, organizzato dal Corso di
Laurea in Architettura del Dipartimento di Architettura e
tenutosi nelle giornate del 6 e del 13 Maggio 2022 presso
l’Aula Magna del Campus di Cesena dell’Università degli
studi di Bologna.
Il focus scientifico e culturale del ciclo di conferenze che
hanno originato tale pubblicazione, è l’esplorazione della
grande tradizione europea dell’arte di costruire e ri-costruire
la città.
L’apporto tecnico-scientifico del ciclo seminariale riguarda,
in altre parole, lo studio e la prefigurazione della qualità
dei luoghi urbani, dello spazio aperto, delle abitazioni,
la loro identità, la ricchezza delle relazioni di questi luoghi
con la città e con le emergenze monumentali, vecchie e
nuove, e allo stesso tempo con il paesaggio naturale
OSWALD MATHIAS UNGERS – SPECULAZIONI BERLINESI
No full textCon questo testo si intende richiamare l'attenzione sui piani per la città di Berlino, con una particolare attenzione alle sperimentazioni elaborate da Oswald Mathias Ungers, come antidoto alla perdita di identità. Negli ultimi anni è stata ampiamente discussa la speculazione della città arcipelago proposta da parte di Ungers, Kollhoff, Koolhaas, Riemann e Ovaska nell'ambito del seminario alla Scuola estiva di Berlino (1977). Questa città è costituita da grandi frammenti architettonici intervallati nel tessuto urbano, che diventano essi stesi città nella città. Tuttavia, la città-arcipelago ha un ruolo di sottofondo; il vero interesse è rappresentato dal modo in cui Ungers credeva nell'architettura su larga scala e nelle grandi proporzioni come antidoto alla dispersione suburbana delle megalopoli, abbracciata da teorici contemporanei come R. Banham (1971), o dal team di Venturi, Scott-Brown e Isenour (1972). In contrasto al modello regionale di città dispersa, Ungers ha adottato per queste isole il termine tedesco Grossformen (precedentemente adottato nel 1965), trasformandole in mega-forme. Ma prima del concetto di città arcipelago, OMU definì una visione ancora più radicale in Berlin 1995 (1968), dove dopo aver discusso i piani proposti da Hilbersemer, Maeckler, Speer, ecc. per la Grande Berlino, propose una megastruttura radicale in grado di risolvere i problemi della città che, alla fine degli anni Sessanta, mostrava ancora la presenza del Muro e le tracce della Guerra. Paradossalmente, questa visione delle isole e l'approccio alle megastrutture coincidevano con il modo in cui Schinkel aveva strutturato la città e la sua periferia, da Potsdam a Berlino: Ungers stava trasformando la Berlino del dopoguerra in una nuova Arcadia post-Schinkel.The purpose of this text is to draw attention to the plans for the city of Berlin, with a focus on the experiments developed by Oswald Mathias Ungers, as an antidote to the loss of identity. In recent years, the speculation of the archipelago city proposed by Ungers, Kollhoff, Koolhaas, Riemann and Ovaska as part of the seminar at the Berlin Summer School (1977) has been widely discussed. This city consists of large architectural fragments interspersed in the urban fabric, which themselves become a city within a city. However, the city-archipelago plays a background role; the real interest lies in the way Ungers believed in large-scale architecture and large proportions as an antidote to the suburban sprawl of megacities, embraced by contemporary theorists such as R. Banham (1971), or the team of Venturi, Scott-Brown and Isenour (1972). In contrast to the regional dispersed city model, Ungers adopted the german term Grossformen (previously adopted in 1965) for these islands, turning them into mega-forms. But before the concept of the archipelago city, OMU defined an even more radical vision in Berlin 1995 (1968), where after discussing the plans proposed by Hilbersemer, Maeckler, Speer, etc. for Greater Berlin, he proposed a radical megastructure capable of solving the problems of the city which, at the end of the 1960s, still showed the presence of the Wall and traces of the War. Paradoxically, this vision of islands and the approach to megastructures coincided with the way Schinkel had structured the city and its suburbs, from Potsdam to Berlin: Ungers was transforming post-war Berlin into a new post-Schinkel Arcadia
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
