No full text«PUTTING ARCHITECTURE ON A BUSINESS BASIS»: ALBERT KAHN AND THE SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT OF DESIGN WORK
No full textIn 1909, after having projected the first reinforced concrete factory in Detroit (Packard Building n. 10), Albert Kahn (1869-1942) is introduced to Henry Ford (1863-1947). From the joint work of those two self-made-men, an industrial capitalist and a promising architect, derives a revolutionary way of considering mass production and industrial architecture. The text examines the most innovative aspects of Albert Kahn work, that are the organization of designing following the hints given by Henry Ford in his factory organization. Federico Bucci, author of the book Albert Kahn: Architect of Ford (Princeton Architectural Press, New York 1994), inquires into the methods of work organization applied in the Albert Kahn Inc., that acquired enormous importance during the II World War climate
An Application of Smart-Microgrid in Slow-Speed Tourism
No full textIn the past few years, there has been a growing global emphasis on environmental sustainability, prompting remarkable advancements in eco-friendly technologies. One sector that has seen notable improvements is maritime transportation. An important innovation in this realm is the adoption of electric propulsion systems in boats, often referred to as "electrified boating." This development has significant implications for promoting coastal sustainability, particularly in tourist destinations that offer exclusive experiences accessible solely by sea. By embracing electrified boating, these destinations not only enhance the visitor experience but also encourage low-impact environmental transportation methods. In particular, this study explores the possibility of using electric, autonomously guided boats made of high-density polyethylene in protected marine areas, such as the Grotta dello Smeraldo along the Amalfi Coast, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of tourism on these areas, also through the implementation of strategic initiatives, such as the establishment of micro - grids

The development of breast cancer, as observed in other malignancies, is a multistep process in which genetic changes are required to convert normal epithelium to invasive cancer. To analyze relevant factors and their effects on neoplastic progression in T1 NO M0 breast cancer, a panel of genetic mark- ers was studied.

Feasibility Assessment for the Application of Carbon Capture Systems Onboard Cargo Ships in Response to the EU ETS Regulation
No full textThe role of the maritime industry in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to mitigate the effects of global warming is significant. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set a specific target for the industry, but the challenge is to implement emission-reducing technologies at scale. The use of fossil fuels is still dominant in the shipping sector, also due to the significant barriers that hinder the full adoption of carbon-neutral alternative fuels. The transition to a low-carbon economy presents an opportunity for the industry to lead the way towards a sustainable innovation and demonstrate a commitment to reducing its environmental impact. In this context, Carbon Capture System (CCS) technologies have been identified as a promising solution, but their implementation on ships comes with its own set of challenges. In this paper, the authors aims at exploring the technical requirements and consequences of the installation of a CCS based on the use of Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) onboard a container ship. To validate their assumptions, the authors set up a simulation tool able to evaluate the potential reduction in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from the ship along a selected route. On the basis of the tool outcomes, the authors were able to provide a comprehensive analysis of the proposed system's costs and benefits, emphasizing the considerable savings that could be attained through the implementation of this technology on board cargo ships with a specific consideration to the future implementation of carbon emission taxes and a focus on the European Union Emission Trading System (EU ETS) regulation. The findings of this research offer valuable perspectives on creating more effective and environmentally friendly approaches to mitigate GHG in the maritime sector
3D Parametric Modeling for Ship Concept Design: A Flexible Approach to General Arrangement Plan
No full textThe concept design phase of a ship is a critical stage that lays the foundation for successful project development, as it establishes the primary framework for the vessel's operational and technical characteristics. This phase requires the evaluation of multiple design alternatives to achieve an optimal balance between performance and feasibility while addressing the complex requirements of stakeholders. Traditionally, general arrangement plans have been developed using 2D CAD tools, where spatial organization decisions are primarily driven by experience and specific owner requests. However, this conventional approach presents significant limitations, particularly when modifications are needed. Since adjustments often require extensive manual rework, the process becomes inefficient and less adaptable to evolving design constraints. Additionally, ensuring consistency across multiple design iterations can be challenging, increasing the risk of errors and delays. To overcome these limitations, this study introduces an innovative methodology for ship concept design, leveraging 3D parametric modeling as a key enabler for enhanced flexibility and efficiency. Unlike traditional methods, this approach facilitates the rapid generation and assessment of alternative solutions, particularly through the development of parametric general arrangement plans. These plans allow for the swift modification of design parameters, such as layout dimensions, volumetric capacities, and functional configurations, while maintaining overall consistency within the model. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through a case study involving the design of a passenger transport vessel. By integrating advanced parametric modeling techniques, the design process becomes more dynamic and responsive, enabling the exploration of multiple spatial configurations with ease. This enhanced adaptability not only streamlines the overall workflow but also allows designers to quickly address changes in requirements or constraints posed by shipowners, ultimately leading to a more efficient and iterative design process
Investigation on the Tensile Properties of Virgin and Recycled HDPE for Boatbuilding Applications Through Experimental Tests
No full textThe search for novel materials suitable for the construction of boat structures and components has acquired paramount importance in the last few years, driven by technological developments in terms of processes and formulations. Particularly, specific types of plastics have attracted attention due to manufacturing techniques that are able to exploit the material’s mechanical properties at their best while ensuring execution simplicity and precision. This is the case of High-Density Polyethylene, commonly known with its acronym HDPE and increasingly used for the construction of small workboats. The numerous positive features of HDPE for marine applications can be summed up in high flexibility, toughness and durability, anti-corrosion properties, and excellent resistance to marine growth. In addition, HDPE can be recycled in several ways for different applications and may give origin to regenerated polyethylene as well, positioning itself in a market that favours materials capable of increasing the eco-sustainability of the final products. Despite all these benefits, the quite limited knowledge and expertise related to the different formulations of the materials available on the market and the presence of several suppliers can lead to incorrect applications that might jeopardise its large-scale diffusion. Moreover, the properties of regenerated HDPE must be thoroughly investigated to understand its potential scope of use. For these reasons, almost all Ship Classification Societies are still working on proper regulations applicable to this material, with some tentative proposals from RINA and Bureau Veritas. The present paper aims to fit into this context by presenting a mechanical characterisation activity to evaluate tensile properties of both virgin and recycled materials through experimental tests. After describing the different types of HDPE employed, the authors present the testing approach and its results
