Towards a Permuting Idea of Architectural Types: The Italian Typo-Morphological Approach and the Chinese City
Articolo pubblicato sulla rivista 建筑师 (The Architect), che si pubblica dal 1979 a cura di China Architecture & Building Press (CABP), casa editrice fondata nel 1954. Si tratta di una delle più influenti riviste di architettura cinesi accademiche, la prima a essere pubblicata dopo la Rivoluzione Culturale. Il saggio, firmato con il ricercatore DONG Yinan, evidenzia le opportunità di studiare la città cinese storica e contemporanea attraverso mappe tipo-morfologiche derivate dalla tradizione di studi italiane. Il progetto di ricerca che sottende è alla base degli studi della Joint Research Unit Transitional Morphologies, costituita tra Southeast University Nanjing e Politecnico di Torino nel 2018

RIO GRANDE VALLEY, TEXAS– Dr. Thomas B. Spencer, Associate Vice President for Research Operations at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley and NASA Solar System Ambassador recently held an online discussion with Dr. Tian Y. Dong, an Assistant Professor in Geomorphology at UTRGV\u27s School of Earth, Environment, and Marine Sciences. The discussion is part of a series aimed at bringing space science closer to the community, offering insights into the latest research in space exploration and geomorphology.
Dong discussed his research in geomorphology, focusing on how landscapes change over time due to physical and chemical processes. His work involves studying evidence of ancient water flows on Earth and other planets, such as Mars, to understand past hydrological cycles and climate conditions. This research has implications for both Earth and space science, highlighting the universal principles of physics that apply across the solar system.
Additionally, Dong talked about a recent $1.2 million grant from NASA aimed at training the next generation of STEM professionals. This initiative will enhance UTRGV\u27s curriculum in earth and environmental sciences and provide students with internship opportunities at NASA centers. The program is designed to improve students\u27 skills and prepare them for careers in STEM fields.
During the discussion, Dong also outlined his future research goals, including studying the Rio Grande\u27s evolution and the impact of human activity on its geomorphology. This work relies on data from NASA satellites, emphasizing the link between space exploration and Earth science.
The interview concluded with a discussion on the importance of STEM education and the role of science and art in understanding the world. Dong encouraged students to pursue STEM courses and highlighted the value of scientific knowledge in debunking misinformation.
This interview with Dr. Dong reinforces UTRGV\u27s commitment to research and education in space and Earth sciences, promoting scientific literacy within the community. Through Dr. Spencer\u27s role as a NASA Solar System Ambassador, UTRGV serves as a bridge between NASA\u27s missions and the Rio Grande Valley, enhancing understanding of our place in the cosmos.
