Wind Tunnel and Laboratory Calibration of Balloon-borne Wind Sensors
Two-low speed wind sensors have been calibrated for measuring the wind speed at an instrument suspended below stratospheric balloons. The low Reynolds number environment was duplicated at the NASA/Ames low-speed MARSWIT wind-tunnel facility, and in a laboratory bell jar. The two new instruments are the time-of-flight instrument that measures the motion of an ion cloud through an open pipe, and the corona anemometer that measures the displacement of an ion beam transversing the air-stream flowing between two plates. The calibrations consist of placing the instruments in a flow stream, and relating the instrument output to the flow-stream velocity. The laboratory calibration is easy to conduct, but is limited to a measurement of internal flow velocity. The wind-tunnel calibration is performed to relate laboratory calibration to freestream conditions. (Author).
Francisco Fanucci, Marcelo Ferraz
Com textos críticos de Cecília Rodrigues e Vasco Caldeira e apresentação assinada pelo professor Max Risselada (Delft/Holanda) e pelo arquiteto João Filgueiras Lima [Lelé], o livro registra os 26 anos de percurso da dupla de arquitetos Francisco Fanucci e Marcelo Ferraz. Além de projetos residenciais, o livro revela como o Brasil Arquitetura tornou-se referência em questões de recuperação, adaptação e intervenção, principalmente em espaços culturais. Segundo Cecília Rodrigues, o que pauta o trabalho dos arquitetos é a forte ligação do projetar com a história, a história da arquitetura e a cultura brasileira nos seus diferentes tempos e matizes, inclusive o popular e o vernacular. Entre outros, são abordados os projetos de integração do Teatro Oficina a um novo centro cultural e comercial, do Museu Afro Brasil no parque Ibirapuera, do Museu Rodin, em Salvador, e o Bairro Amarelo em Berlim. É ressaltada, ainda, a arquitetura de mobiliário e objetos desenvolvida por Ferraz e Fanucci na Baraúna, sua marcenaria própria desde 1986.
The Man in the High Castle
Slavery is back. America, 1962. Having lost a war, America finds itself under Nazi Germany and Japan occupation. A few Jews still live under assumed names. The 'I Ching' is prevalent in San Francisco. Science fiction meets serious ideas in this take on a possible alternate history.
Brasil Arquiterura
With critical essays and a large array of images and technical information, this book rescues and updates the expressive architectural production of the Brasil Arquitetura office, which greatly contributes to the valorization and plurality of one of the most expressive Brazilian cultural manifestations.
