    Jandun's Question-Commentary on Aristotle's Metaphysics

    No full text
    The article deals with Jandun's Commentary on the Metaphysics in its various aspects, starting from its manuscript tradition to its influence. It also analyses Jandun's opinion concerning some key-problems of a commentary on the metaphysics, such as the concept of philosophical inquiry, the relationship between logic and metaphysics, God's omnipotence. Special attention is devoted to issues in political theory that Jandun discusses in this commentary. F. Amerini and G. Galluzzo are the editors of the volum

    Shared hospitality platforms: possible design repercussions, introverted and extroverted

    No full text
    This chapter aims to explore possible implications, in the spatial design field, of new forms of hospitality that have emerged with the sharing economy. In particular, after a first analysis of the current state of contemporary cities and their rapid evolution towards increasingly fluid formats, the temporal variable is iden- tified as a possible key. It influences the design approach from an extrovert point of view and therefore an urban transformation that starts from the interior space, which introverts, moving towards a change in the discipline approach to the design of domestic interiors

    Stability analysis of type-2 fuzzy logic controllers

    No full text
    The application of the direct Lyapunov method to the stability analysis of systems controlled by type-2 fuzzy logic controllers (FLC) is presented. The method is an extension of a method proposed for type-1 fuzzy systems. It is usually applied to systems described by state equations and controlled by fuzzy controllers using state variables as inputs but has been extended to controllers that have the error and the integral of error of the controlled variable as inputs. The proposed method allows to modify the controller rule base so that the controlled system is stable in the operating range defined by the manipulative variable constraints. The method is applied to the stability analysis of a bioreactor and of a CSTR controlled by type-2 FLCs

    A photovoltaic system suitable for the battery pack charging of an electrically power assisted velocipede

    The paper describes the designing, sizing, realization and setting up of a complete system suitable for the management of an electrically power assisted velocipede using a photovoltaic module for the charging of the batteries. In the work an overview on the sustainable mobility needs and on the commercial electrically power assisted velocipedes is presented and the "Ecolapa" prototype, set up in the SDELab laboratory of Palermo University, is precisely described underlining the designing, implementation and setting up phases of the photovoltaic charging system settled up on the velocipede. Moreover tests oriented on the setting up of the whole system and validation tests on the prototype are presented with the aim of determine the growing up of performances, with particular attention on the autonomy, by using the management system here proposed. The results show haw is possible to reach an increase of the 30% of the "Ecolapa" prototype autonomy by using the, by the Authors conceived, management system

    Type-2 fuzzy control of a fed-batch fermentation reactor

    No full text
    The aim of the paper is to present the application of type-2 fuzzy logic controllers (T2FLCs) to the control of a fed-batch fermentation reactor in which the penicillin production is carried out. The performance of the control system using T2FLCs is compared by simulation with that of a control system using type-1 fuzzy logic controllers (T1FLCs). The non linear model used for the simulation study is an unstructured model characterized by the presence of non linearities, parameter uncertainty and measurement noise. Simulation results confirm the robustness of the T2FLC which shows a better performance than its type-1 counterpart particularly when uncertainties are present in the control system
