Abstract Questo articolo è un risultato parziale di una ricerca riguardante la rappresentazione di superfici complesse in geometria descrittiva. La padronanza e l’abilità nell’uso delle diverse tecniche di rappresentazione, consente di raggiungere risultati che altrimenti non sarebbero perseguibili. La Scuola di Disegno di Ingegneria, dell’Università di Palermo si è da sempre fatta promotrice della scienza della rappresentazione attraverso la sperimentazione di tecniche semplificative ed innovative della geometria descrittiva applicata all’architettura e all’ingegneria. In particolar modo, in questo lavoro, si riporta lo studio di una superficie complessa quale è l’elicoide che trova larga applicazione nell’architettura. L’elicoide è qui trattata nella rappresentazione dell’assonometria ortogonale. Il metodo proposto è basato fondamentalmente sull’applicazione indispensabile ed imprescindibile dell’omologia. Alcuni passi, qui dati per scontato, trovano riscontro nei riferimenti bibliografici. This paper presents the issue of a long research on the representation of the complex surface in descriptive geometry. The ability to use the different techniques of representation aims to achieve results that you didn’t image before. In Palermo University, at the Engineering School, the researcher involved the study on the simplify of the so elaborated way to represent the geometry and its applications in architecture buildings and engineering implants. There is just report below the application methods to represent one of the most used surfaces in the practice of buildings.

  • LE GROTTE DI PERTOSA-AULETTA Situate Nel Massiccio Dei Monti
    LE GROTTE DI PERTOSA-AULETTA Situate nel massiccio dei Monti Alburni, le Grotte di Pertosa-Auletta sono uno dei geositi focali del Geoparco “Cilento” e presentano due unicità: • sono le uniche grotte in Italia dove è possibile navigare un fiume sotterraneo, il Negro; • sono le sole in Europa a conservare i resti di un villaggio palafitticolo risalente al II millennio a.C. Il fiume offre un affascinante ed inconsueto viaggio in barca , immersi in un silenzio magico, interrotto soltanto dal fragore degli scrosci della cascata sotterranea. LE VISITE GUIDATE Le Grotte si estendono per circa tremila metri nel massiccio dei Monti Alburni, in un percorso ricco di concrezioni, dove stalattiti e stalagmiti decorano ogni spazio con forme, colori e dimensioni diverse, suscitando stupore ed emozione. Due percorsi turistici di diversa durata accessibili a tutti (parziale e completo) e un percorso speleologico per i più avventurosi, vi permetteranno di esplorare caverne ed anfratti scavati nella natura in milioni di anni. Un viaggio di oltre un chilometro, con 400 metri da percorrere in barca navigando il fiume sotterraneo, giungendo alla cascata interna per visitare la Sala del Paradiso, per poi continuare sul ramo settentrionale scoprendo la maestosità della Grande Sala, le particolarità della Sala delle Spugne e il fascino del Braccio delle Meraviglie. La visita non è faticosa e l’accesso non presenta alcuna difficoltà, pertanto è adatta a persone di tutte le età . IL MUSEO DEL SUOLO UN’ESPOSIZIONE UNICA SUL SUOLO Una struttura museale unica in Italia e con pochi omologhi nel resto del mondo, inaugurata il 22 aprile 2016, nel giorno in cui le Nazioni Unite celebrano la Terra e che propone un singolare itinerario di conoscenza dedicato alla terra, e più precisamente a ciò che avviene in quei tre metri, fondamentali per la vita sul nostro pianeta, che dalla superficie si portano in basso.

Del resto come non rimanere affascinati dai colori della palazzata lungomare, dalla chiesa di S. Pietro arroccata su uno sperone di roccia, dall’architettura dei piccoli borghi, come Fezzano e le Grazie, dalla bellezza del paesaggio inserito nel Parco Naturale Regionale di Porto Venere, dalla trasparenza del mare e dalle isole che chiudono il Golfo. Per apprezzare al meglio e contribuire a tutelare il delicato equilibrio tra passato e presente, può essere utile conoscere la storia e l’arte di questo territorio dove natura, enogastronomia, artigianato, attività outdoor e accoglienza sono i fattori chiave di una destinazione che resta nel cuore di chiunque abbia la fortuna di essere suo gradito ospite. 2 3 1.

    PORTOVENERE ITALY he ancient town of Portovenere looks T as if a brilliant impressionist painting has come to life. This romantic sentiment may not have been shared by those defending or assaulting the town over the past 1,000 years. However, today it can be said with relative cer- tainty that there is little chance of an attack by the Republic of Pisa, Saracen pirates, barbaric hordes or French Emperors. In other words, relax, have fun and enjoy your day in lovely, peaceful Portovenere. HISTORY With a population a little over 4,000, Portovenere is a small, Portovenere was founded by the Romans in the 1st century medieval town. It was built and defended by the Republic of Ge- BC.
