Altri lavori di restauro
No full textIl capitolo è contenuto in un libro che illustra i lavori di restauro dell’edificio postale di Adalberto Libera di Roma (1933-1935), lavori seguiti sul progetto redatto da un gruppo di studio, di cui l’autore ha fatto parte, coordinato da Sergio Poretti. Lo scritto presenta i lavori eseguiti sul rivestimento delle facciate in travertino, sulle vetrate, su due saloni al pubblico, sugli scaloni e sulle rampe esterne
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
Structure and form: the theory of 'Minimal Surfaces' and the bridge over the Basento River by Sergio Musmeci
Full text linkSergio Musmeci occupies a very important position in the history of late 20th century Italian engineering. Born in Rome in 1926, he initially graduated in civil engineering and later in aeronautical engineering. Following an apprenticeship with Pier Luigi Nervi, in whose office he worked from 1949 to 1951, and with Riccardo Morandi, he later opened his own engineering and architecture office together with his wife, the architect Zenaide Zanini. He taught at the University of Rome, initially as an assistant to the course in Rational Mechanics and Graphic Statics, and later as professor of Bridges and Large Structures
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
Il ponte sul Basento, ovvero l'invenzione di una forma "ancora senza nome"
No full textL’articolo, basato sullo studio della documentazione d’archivio, ricostruisce le vicende di progettazione e di esecuzione del ponte realizzato a Potenza da Sergio Musmeci (1967-1975). L’opera viene esaminata considerando il metodo molto particolare che Musmeci seguiva nella ricerca della forma ottimale da dare alle strutture
Roma, il foro Mussolini: strutture nascoste
No full textNell’articolo vengono messi a confronto i due edifici più importanti del Foro Mussolini di Roma - l’accademia di educazione fisica di Enrico Del Debbio e la casa delle armi di Luigi Moretti - analizzandone i modi di impiego delle strutture di calcestruzzo armato al fine di ottenere, in entrambi i casi, una ben definita, ma ben diversa, espressività architettonica

No full textBasandosi sulla documentazione di archivio, vengono ricostruite le fasi di progettazione e di realizzazione dei due edifici per uffici dell’EUR (1961-1965). L’articolo si sofferma più in dettaglio sul curtain wall in vetro e alluminio: l’approfondimento serve a mettere a fuoco alcuni aspetti del particolare modo di progettare di Luigi Moretti
