CAPE

About the ‘Cape’. Considerations on Geometries of the Maurizio Sacripanti’s Osaka Pavilion Roof

Questo studio rivolge l’attenzione all’interpretazione della forma di superfici a doppia curvatura che caratterizzano la morfologia di progetti architettonici non realizzati di particolare interesse formale. L’analisi dell’architettura, condotta nella tradizione del disegno per via analogica, trova oggi un fecondo ambito di sperimentazione nello spazio digitale, luogo privilegiato di studio e validazione delle proprietà geometriche delle forme delle quali l’architettura si compone.

Evaluation of shrimp waste valorization combining computer-aided simulation and numerical descriptive inherent safety technique (NuDIST)

Nowadays, inherently safer designs are considered as key priorities to prevent or mitigate serious incidents with devastating consequences. The need for process safety assessment during early design phases has motivated the development of several contributions related to computer-aided assessment methodologies to measure the inherent safety of chemical processes. In this work, the large-scale production of chitosan from shrimp wastes was evaluated from a process safety point of view using the numerical descriptive inherent safety technique (NuDIST).

Environmental assessment of large scale production of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles via coprecipitation

Nanoparticles are materials with special properties that can be applied in different fields, such as medicine, engineering, food industry and cosmetics. The contributions regarding the synthesis of different types of nanoparticles have allowed researchers to determine a special group of nanoparticles with key characteristics for several applications. Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) have attracted a significant amount of attention due to their ability to improve the properties of polymeric materials.
