Este artigo apresenta uma análise reflexiva da distribuição socioespacial de praças urbanas no que tange à disponibilidade e atendimento à população, tendo como recorte espacial a Grande Cobilândia, Vila Velha (ES). As análises revelam uma distribuição não homogênea das praças, não atendendo toda a população da regional em estudo. Bairros de vulnerabilidade socioeconômica, baixa renda per capita e alta densidade demográfica não apresentam praças ou outro espaço livre público, verificando-se uma na oferta destes espaços, bem como uma baixa acessibilidade espacial às praças. O estudo visa contribuir para o planejamento urbano municipal e a formulação de princípios para uma visão sistêmica dos espaços livres públicos urbanos.

The train is a mode of mass transportation that is fast, efficient, and relatively affordable. To support the high demand for this mode of transportation, adequate infrastructure is also needed. The condition of this infrastructure must always be monitored so that the level of security and safety of rail transportation modes can always be in optimal conditions. One important component that requires regular attention and maintenance is the railway sleepers. In this paper, a finite element (FE) model was made of railway sleepers using ANSYS software. From the analysis on the FE model, it can be explored that the deformation and stress that occurs in the railway due to loading. In this study, vibration tests were also carried out on railway based on several types of passing trains. It aims to determine the frequency value based on the type of passing train. This research is the initial stage of a series of studies on structural health monitoring procedures on railroads.

Como respuesta a la escasa reflexión crítica respecto a los procesos que componen la enseñanza-aprendizaje de la arquitectura en tiempos de profundas transformaciones, el objetivo de la investigación doctoral “Titulación y habilitación profesional del arquitecto en la era post Bolonia. Revisión y análisis comparativo de dos modelos representativos: Chile y España” (2020), fue analizar las configuraciones vigentes de habilitación profesional. Esto, para determinar cómo ha reaccionado la base de formación disciplinar, desde su ciclo final, ante los cambios impuestos por el contexto global. Mediante una metodología exploratoria, desarrollada en base a un análisis documental; entrevistas a académicos, docentes y directivos de escuelas de arquitectura de ambos países y a observación in situ de instancias de titulación, se pudo establecer una contrastación informada entre casos e identificar tendencias generales. Algunos de los resultados indicaron que actualmente hay una tendencia transversal a academizar los procesos de titulación de los nuevos arquitectos; que existen, además, nuevos formatos de habilitación –como por ejemplo la titulación vía magíster– u otros ejercicios que amplían los márgenes del proyecto de arquitectura como único método válido para certificar las competencias disciplinares. La investigación, y parte de sus alcances, son presentados a continuación en torno a cuestionar si efectivamente lo anterior incide o es consecuencia de una expansión disciplinar y de la diversificación de nuevos perfiles profesionales.

After the fall of the Berlin Wall, Central Eastern European cities (CEEc) integrated the globalised networks characterised by hierarchical interactions between cities. This article aims at revisiting the core-periphery and spatial diffusion of innovations paradigms among CEEc within multi-level interurban transnational company networks regardless of CEEc size in 2013. This article contributes to confirm that in spite of presenting less complex economic functions than the large urban centres, medium-sized and small cities, still involved in relations from the communist past, are bottom-up drivers of future innovations. These cities should be targeted by regional policies to reach the polycentric model of urban systems promoted by the European Union.

The need to “renew” the historical building heritage and, therefore, the possibility of introducing innovative technologies and components capable of ensuring its optimal performance pose the difficult question of assessing whether technological intervention for sustainable performance adaptability should be considered a “threat,” while acknowledging that it efficiently helps to safeguard an existing historical building in the long-term and to preserve its cultural value over time.  This article presents the case study for the diagnostics, evaluation and maintenance of the Church of S. Giovanni Battista in Florence, designed by G. Michelucci after the catastrophic event of 2015 that partly destroyed its roof.

The production of the detailed design in the public works has been updated several times, even recently through the adoption of the new Public Procurement Law. Two different approaches are still remaining: the centralization of the design activity in charge of the public contracting body or the externalization to private actors. The paper, beyond an investigation of the potentialities and criticalities of these approaches, outlines new scenarios that are progressively taking place. In particular, starting from the emblematic case of the student housing buildings launched in Italy with the law 338/2000, new possible prospects, new contents and models of production of the detailed design are identified.

Settled on the opening mouth of an estuary at the foothills of a mountain, the placement of the city of Hobart takes form in response to the rhythm of the earth’s crust. The multitudes of life forms, accumulations of matter and vital forces harden, fold, become buried, get pushed to the surface and become engaged in new entanglements. The milieu of Hobart, Tasmania, is developed from the foundations of a deeper, older space, the earth, which has a continual presence, a material, physical hum in the background.

The renewed interest for under used sites of historical city centres is addressing a change in design paradigms on existing buildings involving local communities in the process from the very beginning. The paper reports a recent cooperation, named “Anteprima Lab”, between the Department of Architecture (DA) of University of Bologna, the City of Bologna and Urban Center. The action is intended as an enabler of initiatives aimed at enhancing those places assumed as common goods by local communities. The pilot defined the functional and spatial features of an innovative participated environment that follows the socio-political trends characterizing the modern age of Bologna.

Este artigo discute as práticas acadêmicas do grupo Programa de Ensino Tutorial no curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas relatando as experiências de um convênio firmado entre a Universidade e a Prefeitura Municipal de Campinas (SP) na elaboração do projeto de um parque linear. Busca-se refletir sobre o potencial de convênios como esse na elaboração de práticas de pesquisa e ensino de projeto que contemplam as diversas instâncias do urbanismo na escala do município. Identificou-se uma oportunidade de refletir criticamente sobre a criação de um parque linear como estratégia de requalificação da paisagem urbana, contribuindo para a estruturação do sistema de espaços livres da cidade de Campinas.

<span>This dissertation, which was written as the inaugural lecture of the Academic course 2014-2015 at the University of <span>Granada, proposes an «essay on the role of Culture in modern societies from the art-historical perspective». It analyzes <span>the relations between the State and artistic culture since the Enlightenment, highlighting the contributions of the <span>nineteenth and twentieth centuries to the current concept of cultural property. It concludes «drawing attention to the <span>scientific community to study the basis of a public model, the service of a new Humanism, to face the growing inequality <span>and to become the main core of a project about the substantiation of the Cultural values».</span></span></span></span></span><br /></span>

El artículo reconoce los principales lineamientos que orientan  la política municipal a través del análisis de contenido de las distintas normativas urbanas. El área de estudio comprende el proyecto de renovación urbana de Puerto Norte, antiguamente predios del ferrocarril y del puerto, junto con los dos barrios tradicionales de su entorno: Refinería y Pichincha.  Cabe señalar que si bien Puerto Norte es una centralidad en sí, todo el sector (incluido los barrios aledaños) comienza a actuar, en algunas situaciones, en forma conjunta. Para ello, se considera el área dentro de los instrumentos de ordenamiento urbano, tanto de carácter general (plan urbano) y particular  (ordenanzas, planes especial y de detalle). Luego, se mencionan los convenios urbanísticos que se aplicaron para llevar acabo dichas normas técnicas. Por último, se enuncian los mecanismos de recuperación de plusvalías que se utilizaron, en los casos  que hubo beneficios obtenidos por cambios de  indicadores urbanos.
