Madi Lanier Collection 1953-1965
No full textClippings and photographs of Madi Lanier’s installations and sculpturesMadi Lanier grew up in Berlin, Germany in the 1930s. She was schooled in Switzerland and immigrated to the United States at age 16. She started her artistic career after receiving a scholarship from Bennington College. Madi Lanier created sculptures, murals and mosaics for various department stores in New York City and international hotels, before embarking on a career of art education in private grade schools.Madi Lanierdigitize
Drosophila lehrmanae Madi-Ravazzi 2021
No full textDrosophila lehrmanae Madi-Ravazzi et al., 2021 (Fig. 9) Non-type material. Strain STV-like (Camp Nouragues, French Guiana): 80 males dissected. Male terminalia. The aedeagus of this species is very similar to that of D. sturtevanti (Fig. 9A–C), however, the striking characteristic that differs it from the other species is the relatively short aedeagal apex (Fig. 9B, C). In addition to this, the lower base of the aedeagus has a less pronounced projection than that of D. sturtevanti (Fig. 9B).Published as part of Roman, Bruna Emilia & Madi-Ravazzi, Lilian, 2021, Male terminalia morphology of sixteen species of the Drosophila saltans group Sturtevant (Diptera, Drosophilidae), pp. 523-544 in Zootaxa 5061 (3) on page 534, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5061.3.7, http://zenodo.org/record/564995
Mosaic Atlas: Interview with Halim Madi
No full textThis interview with Halim Madi, a Lebanese-American poet and spoken word performer who creates interactive computational poetry, was conducted by Milina Jovanovic as part of the Mosaic Atlas project. Topics discussed include cultural hybridity, fluidity, gender identity, and complexity of lived experience that defies single, dominant narratives. As part of the Mosaic Atlas project, Mosaic Staff and Volunteers, SJSU students and faculty from the Anthropology and Film, Theater, and Dance Departments interviewed people who support and produce art throughout the Bay Area

MADI: A Universal Art Movement
No full textThe essay focuses on MADI, an artistic phenomenon of international breadth founded by Carmelo Arden Quin in Buenos Aires in 1946 that is based on the principles of no-expression, no representation, no simbolysm.
The contribution focuses on the founding moments of the movement with particular reference to the figure of Joaquin Torres Garcia and Tomas Maldonado analysing the main exhibitions in Latin America and Europe.
Furthermore, the text examines the artworks on display because, despite their similarities and affinities, the works of each artist in this exhibition are autonomous and carry their individual high-profile research that finds its highest completion through MADI.
The exhibition was hosted by the renowned 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art in Kanazawa, with its impressive architecture by Kazuyo Sejima+Ryue Nishizawa/SANAA and its high-profile programming
A computer model for heat exchange processes in mobile air-conditioning systems
No full textThe last few years have seen a rapid growth in the number of cars equipped with airconditioning systems. The space available to fit the system is limited and the under bonnet environment is hostile. Moreover, the depletion of the stratospheric ozone has led to legislation on the phasing out of the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs ). These substances are used as refrigerants in most refrigeration, heat pump and air-conditioning systems in service today. The aim of this research project was to study existing air-conditioning systems used in automotive applications to develop a model that simulates the components of these systems. This provides a better understanding of the effect of using different refrigerants in the system and its performance. Experimental studies of the performance of the different heat exchanger geometries used provided inputs to the model developed. Automotive air-conditioning condensers and evaporators
simulation models were developed and used to compare the performance of these heat exchangers using CFC and HCFC refrigerants and the non-ozone depleting replacements. Thermodynamic properties of the new refrigerants were derived from the equation of state. The evaporator was simulated taking into consideration the mass transfe r associated with the heat transfer in humid conditions. Two types of compact heat exchangers were modelled, round tube with plane fin and plate tube with corrugated fin. These cover most automotive, domestic and industrial applications. The basic performance data of various geometries were determined experimentally. An existing thermal wind tunnel was re-instrumented and modified to improve accuracy at the low air velocities was used in this study. A new data logger linked to a personal computer was used with newly written software to collect
and analyse the test data. The results for all geometries tested were correlated and presented in non-dimensional form. The test data were used to determine the effect of various geometrical parameters on the performance for an optimisation of condenser and evaporator designs. The model developed is being used by industrial collaborators for the design of heat exchangers in automotive air-conditioning systems
