Materiais para a economia criativa: estudos de caso Materiali per l’economia creativa: casi studio
“Materiais para a economia criativa: estudos de caso / Materiali per l’economia creativa: casi studio”, organizado por Denise Dantas (FAU USP), Barbara Del Curto (Politecnico di Milano), Cristiane Aun Bertoldi (FAU USP) faz parte da série Materiais e Criação em Design e Arquitetura e a presenta os resultados da pesquisa em materiais e inovação para aplicação nas indústrias criativas no campo do design e da arquitetura: a experiência do Politecnico di Milano analisada sob a ótica da realidade brasileira. O livro, em edição bilíngue português/italiano, apresenta textos resultados dos debates feitos em 2016 nas áreas de jogos e brinquedos, embalagens, joalheria, mobiliário e têxtil e moda. Traz dezenove capítulos que tratam dos diferentes enfoques no Brasil e na Itália no campo da economia criativa, incluindo textos de pesquisadores convidados e a experiência de pesquisa da Profa.

Nanotecnologie per il tessile. Le nuove trame ordite dalle nanotecnologie
Grazie alle nanotecnologie nel settore tessile vi è l’avvento di una vera e propria rivoluzione il cui risultato sono
substrati tessili funzionalizzati o combinati con altre tipologie di materiali per soddisfare le richieste più innovative
del mercato e aumentare il valore aggiunto dei prodotti.
Thanks to nanotechnologies the textile industry is seeing the advent of a revolution that will result in textile
substrates functionalised or combined with other types of materials to meet the most innovative demands
of the market and increase the added value of products
Materials for the creative economy
This paper presents the results of “ Materials research and innovation for creative indus-tries in the field of design and architecture: the experience of Poli.Milano applied to the Brazil-ian context.”. It was developed in a partnership between the LabDesign FAU USP (Brazil) and Prof. PhD.. Barbara Del Curto (Politecnico di Milano). The project found common ground between the Italian experience and the Brazilian real-ity. The process included three months worth of meetings in São Paulo (between 2015/2018) and, in addition, the involved parties did field research with visits to Brazilian design stores, companies, design exhibitions, and to different sector fairs. We also did bibliographic research-es, as well as meetings with Brazilian and Italian researchers who study materials and engi-neering applied to design
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
We 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
