Il Carnevale degli "altri": le maschere e i letterati
Con un approccio interdisciplinare gli autori si occupano di riti e tradizioni carnevaleschi del Bacino del Mediterraneo, di immagini e simboli di una antica civiltà esaminata spprattutto attraverso le molteplici e sempre più attuali declinazioni dell'alterità
Maschere di Dioniso. A proposito di uno studio di Donato Morelli sul Carnevale di Putignano
La maschera e la lingua del medico dalla commedia antica al teatro moderno
Il contributo ripercorre le principali attestazioni della maschera del medico dalla commedia antica al teatro moderno, con particolare attenzione alle caratteristiche linguistiche di questo personaggio
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Design and tests of a new damper for a gas turbine thin-shell duct
Gas turbine (GT) liners, transition ducts and exhaust diffusers are large thin-shell ducts bounded by two barrels, typically characterized by multiple natural frequencies inside the operating speed range of the engine rotor. In most applications, GT ducts are supported on one side only and they are free to expand inside the gas turbine so to avoid thermal distresses. The GT ducts are typically damped structures able to prevent high cycles fatigue failures. Damping is provided by sliding features as insulation or bolted joints. This paper describes the redesign of a transition duct (TD) after it was discovered that in some operating conditions, duct could crack for high cycle fatigue (HCF). The TD connects the flow path of the gas generator turbine with the flow path of the power turbine. The new TD has been made more robust, but it has also been equipped of dampers capable to operate at high temperature. Starting from the analyses of field data, a predictive FEA model has been developed and validated. After a deep investigation of the TD modes that could be excited by flow path and/or by rotor vibrations, it was decided to add two dampers, one for each barrel of the TD. Due to internal space limitations, a new type of damper has been designed for the external barrel. Both dampers have been sized using FEA. Harmonic analyses rather than forced response transient analyses have been performed so to verify the effectiveness of the new design. In the simulations, dampers have been replaced by harmonic forces able to reproduce the friction force of the dampers. Validation of the method and damper calibration has been done by performing lab tests and full-size TD tests
