    On the equilibrium of the flat arch with joints that have neither friction nor cohesion

    No full text
    Coulomb's essay of 1773 is universally known for the fundamental contribution it gave to examine the different static problems in architecture. One of the issues tackled by the French scholar is the equilibrium of the flat arch (or "plate-bande") introduced as an example of the third corollary to the equilibrium of arches free of friction or cohesion. The problem is addressed by searching the inclination to be assigned to arch joints, once the intrados and extrados curves are known. The problem of the flat arch with horizontal intrados and extrados - studied and solved by Coulomb - is suitable for further applicative developments to determine the inclination of the joints in a flat arch with "en châpe" intrados and extrados and in a circular arch

    Protagora facchino e l’invenzione del cercine

    Sulla base di un’informazione, tratta dal 'Peri Paideias' di Aristotele (Diog. Laert. IX 53 = fr. 72 Gigon), riguardo l'invenzione da parte di Protagora del “cercine”, strumento in grado di facilitare il trasporto di pesi, è possibile supporre che Aristotele conoscesse già un aneddoto sulla vocazione filosofica di Protagora, su cui Epicuro ritorna nella lettera 'Peri Epitedeumaton' (fr. 102 Arrighetti): Protagora sarebbe stato un semplice facchino e Democrito, toccato dal suo ingegnoso modo di legare le fascine, l'avrebbe preso come studente e quindi orientato verso la filosofia
