  • The Continuum of Space Architecture: from Earth to Orbit
    42nd International Conference on Environmental Systems AIAA 2012-3575 15 - 19 July 2012, San Diego, California The Continuum of Space Architecture: From Earth to Orbit Marc M. Cohen1 Marc M. Cohen Architect P.C. – Astrotecture™, Palo Alto, CA, 94306 Space architects and engineers alike tend to see spacecraft and space habitat design as an entirely new departure, disconnected from the Earth. However, at least for Space Architecture, there is a continuum of development since the earliest formalizations of terrestrial architecture. Moving out from 1-G, Space Architecture enables the continuum from 1-G to other gravity regimes. The history of Architecture on Earth involves finding new ways to resist Gravity with non-orthogonal structures. Space Architecture represents a new milestone in this progression, in which gravity is reduced or altogether absent from the habitable environment. I. Introduction EOMETRY is Truth2. Gravity is the constant.3 Gravity G is the constant – perhaps the only constant – in the evolution of life on Earth and the human response to the Earth’s environment.4 The Continuum of Architecture arises from geometry in building as a primary human response to gravity. It leads to the development of fundamental components of construction on Earth: Column, Wall, Floor, and Roof. According to the theoretician Abbe Laugier, the column developed from trees; the column engendered the wall, as shown in FIGURE 1 his famous illustration of “The Primitive Hut.” The column aligns with the human bipedal posture, where the spine, pelvis, and legs are the gravity- resisting structure. Caryatids are the highly literal interpretation of this phenomenon of standing to resist gravity, shown in FIGURE 2.

  • Composite Concave Cupolae As Geometric and Architectural Forms
    Journal for Geometry and Graphics Volume 19 (2015), No. 1, 79–91. Composite Concave Cupolae as Geometric and Architectural Forms Slobodan Mišić1, Marija Obradović1, Gordana Ðukanović2 1Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Belgrade Bulevar kralja Aleksandra 73, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia emails: [email protected], [email protected] 2Faculty of Forestry, University of Belgrade, Serbia email: [email protected] Abstract. In this paper, the geometry of concave cupolae has been the starting point for the generation of composite polyhedral structures, usable as formative patterns for architectural purposes. Obtained by linking paper folding geometry with the geometry of polyhedra, concave cupolae are polyhedra that follow the method of generating cupolae (Johnson’s solids: J3, J4 and J5); but we removed the convexity criterion and omitted squares in the lateral surface. Instead of alter- nating triangles and squares there are now two or more paired series of equilateral triangles. The criterion of face regularity is respected, as well as the criterion of multiple axial symmetry. The distribution of the triangles is based on strictly determined and mathematically defined parameters, which allows the creation of such structures in a way that qualifies them as an autonomous group of polyhedra — concave cupolae of sorts II, IV, VI (2N). If we want to see these structures as polyhedral surfaces (not as solids) connecting the concept of the cupola (dome) in the architectural sense with the geometrical meaning of (concave) cupola, we re- move the faces of the base polygons. Thus we get a deltahedral structure — a shell made entirely from equilateral triangles, which is advantageous for the purpose of prefabrication.

There are other things brewing and growing in the oceanic vat. It pays to know this. It pays to know that there is just as much future as there is past. The only thing that doesn't pay is to be sure of man's own part in it. There are things down there still coming ashore. Never make the mistake of thinking life is now adjusted for eternity.

  • Nanotechnology and Picotechnology to Increase Tissue Growth: a Summary of in Vivo Studies
    Nanotechnology and picotechnology to increase tissue growth: a summary of in vivo studies Ece Alpaslan1 and Thomas J Webster1,2 Author information ► Copyright and License information ► Go to: Abstract The aim of tissue engineering is to develop functional substitutes for damaged tissues or malfunctioning organs. Since only nanomaterials can mimic the surface properties (ie, roughness) of natural tissues and have tunable properties (such as mechanical, magnetic, electrical, optical, and other properties), they are good candidates for increasing tissue growth, minimizing inflammation, and inhibiting infection. Recently, the use of nanomaterials in various tissue engineering applications has demonstrated improved tissue growth compared to what has been achieved until today with our conventional micron structured materials. This short report paper will summarize some of the more relevant advancements nanomaterials have made in regenerative medicine, specifically improving bone and bladder tissue growth. Moreover, this short report paper will also address the continued potential risks and toxicity concerns, which need to be accurately addressed by the use of nanomaterials. Lastly, this paper will emphasize a new field, picotechnology, in which researchers are altering electron distributions around atoms to promote surface energy to achieve similar increased tissue growth, decreased inflammation, and inhibited infection without potential nanomaterial toxicity concerns. Keywords: nanomaterials, tissue engineering, toxicity Go to: Introduction Bone tissue and other organ dysfunction can be provoked by poor eating habits, stress, age-related diseases such as osteoarthritis or osteoporosis, as well as accidents.1 To date, common procedures to restore or enhance life expectancy involve medical device insertion or organ transplantation.1 However, due to the low number of donors and its high cost, organ transplantation is limited.

  • Dependent Origination: Seeing the Dharma
    Dependent Origination: Seeing the Dharma Week Six: Interconnectedness and Interpenetration Experiential Homework Possibilities The experiential homework is essentially the first exercise we practiced in class involving looking for the boundary between oneself and other than self while experiencing seeing. This is the exercise my dissertation subjects were given for my data collection portion of my dissertation research. It relates directly to the transition from the link of nama-rupa to the link of vinnana, and then sankhara, that I spoke about in my talk this week. Just so that you can begin to have some experiential relationship to my research before I present my dissertation in our last session in two weeks, I’m including the exact instructions as they were given to my participants as well as the daily journal questionnaire they were asked to fill out. Exercises like these are meant not as onetime exercises but for repeated application. Your experience of them will often change and deepen if they are applied regularly over an extended period of time. My subjects used this exercise as part of their daily meditation practice for 15 minutes a day over a period of 10 days. Each day they filled out the questionnaire, their answers to which then became a significant part of my data. See below. Suggested Reading “Subtle Energy” This reading is a selection of excerpts from my dissertation Literature Review regarding the topic of subtle energy. See below. Transcendental Dependent Origination by Bhikkhu Bodhi. This is a sutta selection translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi with his commentary. While the ordinary form of Dependent Origination describes the causes and conditions that lead to suffering, in this version, the Buddha also enumerates the chain of causes and conditions that lead to the end of suffering.

  • Geometrical and Static Aspects of the Cupola of Santa Maria Del Fiore, Florence (Italy)
    Structural Analysis of Historic Construction – D’Ayala & Fodde (eds) © 2008 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 978-0-415-46872-5 Geometrical and static aspects of the Cupola of Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence (Italy) A. Cecchi & I. Chiaverini Department of Civil Engineering, University of Florence, Florence, Italy A. Passerini Leonardo Società di Ingegneria S.r.l., Florence, Italy ABSTRACT: The purpose of this research is to clarify, in the language of differential geometry, the geometry of the internal surface of Brunelleschi’s dome, in the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence; the statics of a Brunelleschi-like dome have also been taken into consideration. The masonry, and, in particular, the “lisca pesce” one, together with the construction and layout technologies, have been main topics of interest for many researchers: they will be the subjects of further research. 1 INTRODUCTION: THE DOME OF THE CATHEDRAL OF FLORENCE The construction of the cathedral of Firenze was begun in the year 1296, with the works related to the exten- sion of the ancient church of Santa Reparata: it was designed byArnolfo (1240,1302).The design included a great dome, based on an octagonal base, to be erected in the eastern end of the church.The dome is an unusual construction of the Middle Ages, (Wittkower 1962): Arnolfo certainly referred to the nearby octagonal bap- tistery San Giovanni, so ancient and revered that the Florentines believed it was built by the Romans, as the temple of Ares, hypothesis which was not con- firmed by excavations, that set the date of foundation Figure 1.
