    No full text
    L'articolo propone una soluzione interpretativa degli artt. 8 e 11 del d.lg. n. 235 del 2015 muovendo da due recenti vicende politiche su cui si è acceso il dibattito dottrinale: il caso De Magistris riguardante il problema dell'applicazione retroattiva della sospensione ex art. 11 e della natura giuridica dell'istituto sospensivo. Il caso De Luca, che pone il problema del momento a partire dal quale applicare la sospensione ex art. 8. L'articolo conclude proponendo, in via interpretativa, una soluzione che consenta al neoeletto Presidente, prima di essere sospeso dalla carica, di nominare la Giunta e un vicepresidente.The paper makes an interpretative proposal of articles 8 and 11 of legislative decrete no. 235 del 2012 by analyzing two recent political events: the De Magistris case about the retroactive application of the suspension ex art. 11. The De Luca case concerning the moment from which the suspension ex art. 8 operates. The article ends with an interpretative proposal of art. 8: the work proves that the suspension implements after that the President has appointed the "Giunta" and a vice Presiden

    Diagrams, Technology and New Materials: The Scientific Nature of Loris Cecchini's Artworks

    No full text
    After a brief introduction about the artistic career of Loris Cecchini (Milano, 1969), the text is based on the conversation with the artist about the scientific side of his work. Profound scientific and technological research plays an important role at the design and production level of Cecchini's work, especially in the choice of materials to use, and the technology adopted to assemble the various parts of the body of the sculpture. Moreover, science seems in some way to influence the very foundation of his work: diagrams and frameworks reminiscent of chemistry or biology characterize many of his sculptures, as well as the way they interact with the space containing them. Even if the artist does not consider the character of his work as purely scientific, he thinks that, in a decidedly empirical way, science enables him to explore a wider territory, bringing together natural complexity and artificial systems, subject and language. Cecchini in his answers describes places, exhibitions, reading activities and scientific theories that were very important to him, which struck a deep chord with him, influencing his work and showing his interest in the world of science in its broadest sense

    Memorie urbane. Nuove modalità di racconto della storia dei luoghi

    No full text
    Come si può valorizzare lo spazio pubblico restituendo nel modo più coinvolgente la storia del suo passato con un approccio interdisciplinare tra architettura e comunicazione multimediale? Il fine è tener viva la memoria dei luoghi affinché le tracce degli accadimenti siano leggibili e condivise. A partire da questa domanda si è sviluppato il lavoro presentato nella mostra 1943 - 2018 Memoria e spazio pubblico. 12 progetti per ricordare il bombardamento di San Lorenzo a cura di Cecilia Cecchini e Maurizio Di Puolo che ha avuto luogo a Roma alla Casa della Memoria e della Storia (11-16 Maggio 2018) e all’Ex Dogana (18-29 Luglio 2018) in occasione delle celebrazioni previste per il 75° anno dalla data dell’evento. La mostra presenta il lavoro di ricerca progettuale svolto dagli studenti nell’Atelier di Exhibit Design del Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Design Comunicazione Visiva e Multimediale, prendendo come riferimento il quartiere San Lorenzo di Roma che nell’estate del 1943 venne profondamente danneggiato dai bombardamenti che causarono più di 3000 morti. In particolare il tema ha riguardato la progettazione di un memoriale diffuso che fosse capace di comunicare, attraverso modalità contemporanee e coinvolgenti, quanto accaduto. Oggi, infatti, le conseguenze di quelle devastazioni pur essendo ancora in parte visibili, sono segni evidenti solo per chi ha vissuto o conosce quei tragici avvenimenti, ma illeggibili per chi frequenta le sue strade senza conoscerne la storia. Il contributo dello scritto di Cecilia Cecchini è una riflessione relativa alla valorizzazione della memoria dei luoghi e, più in generale, su un aspetto fondamentale degli spazi pubblici, quello della loro identità.How can we make the most of public space, communicating the history of its past in the most engaging way, using an interdisciplinary approach that spans architecture and multimedia communication? The aim is to keep the memory of places alive so that the traces of events may be both visible and shared. This question gave rise to a project that was presented at the exhibition entitled 1943-2018 Memoria e spazio pubblico: 12 progetti per ricordare il bombardamento di San Lorenzo (Memory and Public Space: 12 projects commemorating the bombing of San Lorenzo), curated by Cecilia Cecchini and Maurizio Di Puolo, which took place at the Casa della Memoria e della Storia in Rome (11-16 May 2018) and the ex-Dogana exhibition space (18-29 July 2018) during celebrations commemorating the 75th anniversary of the event. The exhibition presents project-based research work carried out by students attending the Exhibit Design workshop as part of the Master’s degree course in Multimedia and Visual Design Communication, which focused on the San Lorenzo district of Rome, heavily damaged by bombing raids that killed over 3,000 people in the summer of 1943. The workshop’s theme particularly focused on designing a multi-location memorial that could communicate what happened using modern, engaging means. This is because the results of that devastation, though still partly visible, are now only obvious to those who witnessed it first-hand or those who know about those tragic events, whilst they are invisible to those who pass through the district without knowing its history. What follows is therefore a reflection on the promotion of the memory of places and, in general, a fundamental aspect of public space: its identity

    An assessment of the impact of possible CAP reform scenarios on Romanian agriculture

    No full text
    Using a simplified model, with key-variable the prices of two different possible scenarios of CAP reform after 2013 (moderate and radical), this paper present a comparison between the price effects of implementation of each reform scenario at 2015 horizon on Romanian agriculture. This short analysis shows that, under the presented hypotheses, the net welfare effect, due to the price changes, for the selected products, is positive in both reform scenarios, yet greater in the case of the radical reform. Integrated in the large context of Romanian development, it seems that the influence of CAP reform upon agriculture and rural areas will be most likely a gradual one: an interpenetration between the two scenarios is foreseeable, starting with the moderate reform that will dominate the period around 2013, the reform measures acquiring a more radical character afterwards.CAP reform, Romania, welfare effects, Agricultural and Food Policy,

    Valorizzare un’opera incompleta: il caso dei “Motetti concertati a due voci” di Tomaso Cecchini (Venezia, 1613)

    Many printed music editions from the 16th and 17th centuries have come down to us incomplete. Starting from the case study of the collection Motetti concertati a due voci by Tomaso Cecchini (Venice, 1613), this article intends to offer some theoretical and methodological reflections and outline a possible course of valorisation of the incomplete repertoire, also touching on the problem of the reconstruction of the missing parts

    Rich, Sturmian, and trapezoidal words

    No full text
    In this paper we explore various interconnections between rich words, Sturmian words, and trapezoidal words. Rich words, first introduced by the second and third authors together with J. Justin and S. Widmer, constitute a new class of finite and infinite words characterized by having the maximal number of palindromic factors. Every finite Sturmian word is rich, but not conversely. Trapezoidal words were first introduced by the first author in studying the behavior of the subword complexity of finite Sturmian words. Unfortunately this property does not characterize finite Sturmian words. In this note we show that the only trapezoidal palindromes are Sturmian. More generally we show that Sturmian palindromes can be characterized either in terms of their subword complexity (the trapezoidal property) or in terms of their palindromic complexity. We also obtain a similar characterization of rich palindromes in terms of a relation between palindromic complexity and subword complexity

    Esplorazioni spaziali: per viaggi estremi materiali estremi

    “Lo Spazio è una frontiera, dura e inospitale, in cui noi siamo ancora degli esploratori e non dei coloni.” Queste parole di Luca Parmitano, il primo astronauta italiano ad effettuare un’attività extraveicolare nello spazio, ben sintetizzano la natura di questi viaggi. Nello spazio profondo il ruolo dei materiali e delle tecnologie è di vitale importanza per le missioni e per la vita stessa degli uomini che vi partecipano. Anche noi avvicinandoci a questo ambito di ricerca estremo compiamo a nostra volta un viaggio dove tutto sembra possibile: ceramiche flessibili, schiume a bassa densità ma ad alta resistenza, luce liquida, alluminio trasparente, adesivi intelligenti, materiali che si autoriparano e materiali che non si rompono proprio, ascensori per lo spazio e tute indossabili dalla complessità di piccole astronavi. E spesso questi supermateriali da impiegare su Marte sono bioispirati: la Terra sembra essere anche a quelle latitudine un insuperabile modello cui far riferimento.‘Space is a tough, inhospitable frontier where we are still explorers and not colonists’. These words – spoken by Luca Parmitano, the first Italian astronaut to perform a spacewalk – perfectly describe the nature of such voyages. In deep space, the role of materials and technology is of vital importance for ensuring the success of missions and the safety of the people who carry them out. We, too, in studying this field of extreme research, undertake a journey where everything seems possible: flexible ceramics, low-density but highly resistant foam, liquid light, transparent aluminium, smart adhesives, materials that repair themselves and materials that cannot break, space elevators and space suits that are as complex as small spaceships. And often these supermaterials designed for Mars are environmentally inspired: Earth seems to be an unparalleled benchmark, even at that latitude

    Multiphysics‐Enabled Liquid State Thermal Harvesting: Synergistic Effects between Pyroelectricity and Triboelectrification

    Energy consumption levels show a never-ending increase since the industrial era. Toward sustainability objectives, it is of outstanding importance to reduce the amount of wasted energy, that typically comes as waste heat, as a consequence of nonunitary efficiency of any thermodynamic process. Herein, a breakthrough in conversion of low enthalpy heat into electricity is presented, based on a liquid state device that operates through multiphysics effects: thermomagnetic advection, triboelectricity, pyroelectricity, and Ludwig–Sorét effect. A synergistic interaction between ferroelectric surfaces and a complex composition colloidal suspension is evidenced, owing to an enhancement of the generated potential of 365% in comparison with pyroelectric effect and 267% in comparison with triboelectric effect, while the current extracted is 54% higher than the pyroelectric effect only and the power extracted by induction remains substantially unperturbed. The impact of this technology on society is also analyzed, on the basis of a set of practical applications, by means of a computational analysis
