    Stanislao Marchisio: un commerciante a teatro

    No full text
    Nell’articolo si indaga la figura di Stanislao Marchisio (1773-1859), ‘uomo di teatro’ torinese, di professione commerciante, fondatore dell’Accademia filodrammatica di Torino, nella quale svolse l’attività non solo di autore, ma anche di primo attore, sceneggiatore e regista (o meglio ‘concertatore’). Marchisio compose due tragedie (“Saffo” e “Mileto”), ispirate ad Alfieri, e numerose commedie (tra le quali spiccano “L’inimico delle donne”, “I cavalieri d’industria” e “La vera e la falsa amicizia”), nelle quali si ravvisa invece l’influenza goldoniana. Oltre ai brani più interessanti delle opere teatrali, nell’articolo sono analizzate alcune tirate polemiche presenti nei peritesti (nelle quali Marchisio si scaglia contro le rappresentazioni non autorizzate, le pubblicazioni abusive fondate su copioni ‘contraffatti’ e l’assenza di professionalità degli attori), che risultano essere un significativo documento per inquadrare il panorama teatrale piemontese (e non solo) di inizio Ottocento, perché l’autore aveva lavorato sia con le compagnie itineranti sia con quelle «privilegiate» (prime fra tutte la compagnia Fabbrichesi, detta «vicereale», e la compagnia Reale Sarda).The article analyzes the figure of Stanislao Marchisio (1773-1859), Turin’s dealer and “man of theater”, who founded in 1801 the Academia filodrammatica in Turin, in which he held the role of author, actor, screenwriter and “director” (nay “concertatore”). Marchisio composed two tragedies inspired by Alfieri (‘Saffo’ and ‘Mileto’) and numerous comedies inspired by Goldoni (among which stand out ‘L’inimico delle donne , I cavalieri d’industria e La vera e falsa amicizia’). The article analyzes the most interesting passages of the plays and polemical writings present in the preface, in the afterword and in the dedicatory letters, in which Marchisio criticizes unauthorized preformances, abusive publications based on ‘counerfeit’ scripts and the lack of professionalism of the actors. These writings are an important document to investigate the Piemontese (and not only) theatrical panorama in the early nineteenth century: in fact, author had worked with both itinerant and «privileged» companies (first of all Fabbrichesi company, called «vicereale», and the Royal Sardinian company)

    Solution of population balance equations using the direct quadrature method of moments

    The implementation of a populationbalanceequation (PBE) in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) represents a crucial element in the simulation of multiphase flows. Some of the available methods, such as classes methods (CM) and Monte Carlo (MC) methods, are computationally expensive and simulation of real cases of practical interest requires intractable CPU times. On the other hand, other methods such as the method of moments (MOM) are computationally affordable but have proven to be inaccurate for a number of cases. In recent work a new closure, the quadraturemethod of moments (QMOM), has been introduced, applied and validated. In our earlier work, QMOM was shown to be an efficient and accurate method for tracking the moments of the particle size distribution (PSD) in a CFD simulation. However, QMOM presents two main disadvantages: (i) if applied to multi-variate distributions it loses simplicity and efficiency, and (ii) by tracking only the moments of the PSD, it does not represent realistically polydisperse systems with strong coupling between the internal coordinates and phase velocities. In order to address these issues, in this work the directquadraturemethod of moments (DQMOM) is formulated, validated, and tested. DQMOM is based on the idea of tracking directly the variables appearing in the quadrature approximation, rather than tracking the moments of the PSD. Nevertheless, for monovariate cases we show that QMOM and DQMOM yield identical results. In addition, we show how it is possible to extend the DQMOM to multivariate cases and some of relevant theoretical and numerical issues are discussed. These issues are discussed in the present work for homogeneous and one-dimensional flows. References to recent CFD applications of DQMOM to multiphase flows are provided as further proof of the utility of the method

    Computational models for polydisperse particulate and multiphase systems

    Providing a clear description of the theory of polydisperse multiphase flows, with emphasis on the mesoscale modelling approach and its relationship with microscale and macroscale models, this all-inclusive introduction is ideal whether you are working in industry or academia. Theory is linked to practice through discussions of key real-world cases (particle/droplet/bubble coalescence, break-up, nucleation, advection and diffusion and physical- and phase-space), providing valuable experience in simulating systems that can be applied to your own applications. Practical cases of QMOM, DQMOM, CQMOM, EQMOM and ECQMOM are also discussed and compared, as are realizable finite-volume methods. This provides the tools you need to use quadrature-based moment methods, choose from the many available options, and design high-order numerical methods that guarantee realizable moment sets. In addition to the numerous practical examples, MATLAB scripts for several algorithms are also provided, so you can apply the methods described to practical problems straight away

    Giardini e Paradisi

    Un giardino può esistere non tanto per quello che vuole essere (o meglio apparire), ma soprattutto per quello che deve significare in un contesto ben preciso, finalizzato ad un'utenza ben definita. Il contributo descrive i diversi sensi del giardino:senso ambientale, vegetale ed architettonico, offrendo una panoramica sull'attuale significato dei giardini
