    Space and the nation: three texts on Aldo Rossi

    No full text
    In this paper the spatial dimensions of political practice and the historical dimensions of architectural practice are examined. The author argues that these two practices intersect when, in the life of a city and a nation, time is transformed into space. The productivity of death in this regard is explored. In developing this argument, reference is made to the works and writings of Regis Debray and Aldo Rossi, as well as events in the recent political history of South Africa

    Experimental High-Frequency Parameter Identification of AC Electrical Motors

    No full text
    In order to predict conducted electromagnetic interference in inverter-motor drive systems, high-frequency (HF) motor models are requested and the involved parameters have to be available. In previous studies, the authors have presented an accurate HF model for induction motors and they have defined the procedures to identify the model parameters. In this paper, these results are extended to several types and sizes of industrial ac motors such as induction, synchronous reluctance (without interior permanent magnets), and brushless motors. The model parameter-identification procedure has been improved, and it is based on a least-squares data fitting applied to the measured magnitude and phase-frequency-response curves of the phase-to-ground and the phase-to-neutral impedances. The aim of this paper is to provide quick indications to select the suitable values of the HF model parameters, with reference to the size and type of the ac motor, to evaluate the HF voltage and current components in inverted-fed ac motor system

    Woodworking for Wildlife - Aldo Leopold Bench

    No full text
    Aldo Leopold is an internationally recognized figure in wildlife conservation and pioneering author and philosopher on environmental ethics and land stewardship. Born and raised in southeastern Iowa on the bluffs of the Mississippi River in Burlington, Leopold’s land ethic was born from hundreds of hours of careful observation outdoors in Iowa, Wisconsin, the American southwest, and other natural landscapes.</p

    Agli italiani piace la trasparenza amministrativa?

    No full text
    Starting from the book by Enrico Carloni, Il paradigma trasparenza, the Author examines some profiles related to the relationship between citizens and public power and administrative transparency. According to the Author, for various reasons, including contextual and organizational ones, it is still necessary to work on the quality of transparency. The transparency paradigm represents a legal goal of civilization, to be protected and defended, but still to be maintained and relaunched

    No full text
    This thesis is concerned with the experimental prose by Aldo Palazzeschi: Allegoria di Novembre (1908 as Riflessi, 1926), Il Codice di Perelá (1911) and La Piramide (1914). At the beginning of the thesis the author gives an insight into the writers biography, then outlines the difficult situation of the individuality of modern man at the beginning of twentieth century. The thesis is mainly devoted to the analysis of specific Palazzeschi's works. Author has been looking for specific language and stylistic features. Author also observes evolution of the writer's creative process. In the center of her interest there are also the protagonists of the works and the evolution of their characters. In the final chapter the main features of analysed works are summarised
