Luka Doncic, que lleva todo el verano entrenando para mejorar su estado físico, anotó un triple-doble y jugadas de genio, firmó 20 puntos, 14 rebotes y 10 asistencias en el amistoso que Eslovenia perdió con Grecia ENRIQUE CORBELLA Luka Doncic demostró que lleva todo el verano entrenando a tope, para afinar y definir su cuerpo para afrontar la temporada NBA mejor que nunca, con una gran exhibición con Eslovenia en el partido amistoso que su selección perdió 91-98 ante una Grecia sin Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nick Calathes ni Kostas Sloukas. Los Mavericks pidieron a Doncic que adelgazara y "está entrenando como loco" La estrella de los Mavericks, que mostró una figura más estilizada que la pasada campaña, firmó un triple-doble de 20 puntos, 14 rebotes y 10 asistencias en 30 minutos en el Stozice Arena de Liubliana para liderar a su selección en este exigente partido preparatorio para el Mundial de baloncesto de 2023 de Japón, Filipinas e Indonesia. Jordan Morgan (16 puntos), Klemen Prepelic (13), Vlatko Cancar (129 y Zoran Dragic (12) fueron los mejores escuderon de Doncic en Eslovenia. Kostas Papanikolaou (con 18 puntos y 6 de 6 en triples), Thomas Walkup (17), Michalis Lountzis (13) y Dinos Mitoglou (13) brillaron en la competitiva Grecia entrenada por Dimitris Itoudis. Thomas Walkup, recientemente nacionalizado griego, fue el héroe heleno con siete puntos cruciales seguidos en los últimos minutos. ¿Contra quién juegan Eslovenia y Grecia en el Mundial? En el Mundial de baloncesto de 2023 de Japón, Filipinas e Indonesia la selección de Eslovenia jugará en el jugará en el Grupo F de Okinawa (Japón) junto a Cabo Verde, Georgia y Venezuela. Por su parte Grecia tiene su sede en Manila (Filipinas) junto a Jordania, Estados Unidos y Nueva Zelanda.

ASSIGNMENT_01: Reverse Engineering

( Lady Bug - Dismantling )

( Christopher Meza + Nicholas Rowlings )

This is the first assignment of the Connective Environments course taught by professor Dimitris Papanikolaou; as part of the Graduate curriculum at the School of Architecture within the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. 

( Lady Bug = Wind up Toy ) 

This assignment begins through the selection of a mechanically actuated toy. We chose the ladybug above because it is a wind-up toy, meaning that it is powered by a torsion spring. The seemingly erratic movements of the toy made it interesting as well. We were really curious when it came time to figure out how the spring engine would be able to create turns without any known superficial steering system. 

( Lady Bug - Internal Assembly )

This is the first look at all the internal components of the Lady-Bug toy. From what we were able to see right away is that there are only three screws in the entire assembly; they hold the frame together. In addition to that, the rest of the pieces are either pressure fit together or they interlock with one another. 

( Lady Bug - Engine )

The picture above depicts half of the engine after separating it from the frame. From what we can see, there are three pieces that compose the engine block. Within the block we can see the spring and several smaller components. We can also notice the gear ratio that is able to transfer the force of the spring to the axle.

( Lady Bug - Popped Torsion Spring

It didn’t take long for us to encounter problems. After pulling the engine off of the frame we thought that the pieces would simply click on and off. However, while one side separated very easily, the other popped right off due to the accumulated tension on the spring. While playing with the toy we did not think about this, and it resulted in a panic attack that sent us scavenging for parts. 

( Lady Bug - Sketch = Liaison Diagram )

In order to keep track of the parts, we began to sketch an early version of a Liason diagram. This diagram helps us map out the order of operations within the toy. It will allow us to understand the inter-dependency of the pieces and it will lay out the groundwork for future troubleshooting. 

( Lady Bug - Parts )

This image shows all of the pieces that compose the toy, except for the ones we are still looking for. At this point we have a strong idea as to how the toy functions. We are making some assumptions since the spring displaced some pieces. We understand the main components of  the engine and how the potential engine converts into kinetic energy therefore generating enough mechanical energy to move the entire toy. At this point we are still unsure about how the toy is able to turn to a different direction. From our observations, prior to the dismantlement we noted that a leg/ riser was moving the toy up and down. We do not know how this leg/riser is moving.

Free Level - Blue Grass (Greece, 1983-84; not bluegrass)

‘Blue Grass Ep’ contains four super rare recordings of a phantom Greek musical-duo called ‘Free Level’ which was formed in Athens, Greece between 1983 and 1984. The musicians behind this project were composer and keyboardist George Theodorakis and ex-Sharp Ties’ guitarist and founding member Petros Skoutaris - both young veterans of the Athens music scene in the late 70’s/late 80’s. TIP! . Into the light proudly picks four utterly spellbinding highlights of this totally unheard material. More specifically, the ep offers two long instrumental tales and two somewhat personal songs that all together share the same syncretic blend of European and Southeastern nuance. Swaying rhythms, obscure but hilarious lyrics, pitched up Jean-Luc Ponty influenced bass-lines and proto-dreampop experiments by one of Athens' most promising but short collaborations from the early 80's. Immerse yourself!

All songs written and recorded by George Theodorakis and Petros Skoutaris at Studio SSR, Athens, Greece. B2 written by Petros Skoutaris and recorded by George Theodorakis. Additional musicians: Dimitris Papangelidis, Dimitris Papanikolaou and Vasillis Ntallas.

Syngrou Avenue Office Buildings in Athens

17 Dec 2020

Syngrou Avenue Office Buildings

Design: Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects

Location: Athens, Greece

Planning granted for the Syngrou Avenue Office Buildings a landmark scheme in Athens designed by Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects

 New landmark on one of Athens’ major thoroughfares with stunning views to the Acropolis  High-quality workplace promoting exceptional design quality and class-leading sustainability in Greece  Designed by Bennetts Associates (first commission in Greece) and Divercity Architects  Collaboration with leading Greek developer Dimand

Planning permission has been granted for a landmark commercial scheme in central Athens by Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects. Designed for leading, award-winning Greek developer Dimand, the 15,600sqm (Gross Building Area) new build scheme will create a workplace of the highest quality with class-leading sustainability credentials, and lush new courtyard garden. The scheme occupies a prominent corner site on Leoforos Syngrou, a major avenue linking the city centre and the seafront, and will consolidate a major new commercial and cultural destination together with the adjacent Hellenic General Insurance HQ [by Mario Botta and Rena Sakellaridou & Morpho Papanikolaou (SPARCH)], the Onassis Stegi (by Architecture Studio) and the Intercontinental Athenaeum Hotel (by Iason Rizos). The project has broken ground on site and is expected to be completed by early Spring 2022.

Contemporary reinterpretation of traditional design themes and use of local materials are intended to help bed the scheme in as identifiably Athenian. A pair of eight storey buildings are clad in vertical white marble louvres at carefully crafted angles to capture the unique Athenian light and create a choreography of vistas and views to the city, the mountains, and the Acropolis. Sculpting of the roofline above the lower building draws the eye from Syngrou Avenue towards the main entrance on Lagoumitzi street. At street level, a colonnade or ‘stoa’ provides the same signposting together with a new avenue of trees that soften and shade the context. A ‘peristyle’ marks the shared entrance and affords views to a new garden that draws reference from traditional Greek courtyard houses.

The project’s sustainability credentials, targeting LEED Gold, draw on Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects’ vast expertise but re-evaluated for the local climate. The guiding principle is the Athenian preoccupation with the 3 S’s – ‘shade, shade, shade’. Internally a low energy ventilation system is adopted. Planted upper terraces and a green roof further enhance biodiversity and at the same time help to reduce cooling loads. Using materials with high percentages in recycled content, as steel reinforcement and façade structures reduces the carbon footprint of the project. The choice of materials is based on a Life Cycle Assessment approach to evaluate the embodied carbon of the scheme.

Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects have designed the scheme to promote health and wellbeing, with natural white marble surfaces throughout; the core and façade located to ensure a good distribution of daylight, and openable windows to ensure abundant fresh air. Occupiers have access to the lush courtyard gardens to create a memorable arrival experience as well as an oasis to be enjoyed as a place of serenity at work breaks or as a social meeting place that can accommodate outdoor events,

Dimitris Andriopoulos, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer at Dimand comments: “I would first like to thank Prodea Investments for sourcing this investment opportunity and joining us as a codeveloper in the project. I believe this development will aesthetically improve and add value to the area, in line with a series of neighboring landmark properties. We trust this office complex will become a successful, sustainable and lively working space for all and I thank both Bennetts Associates and Divercity Architects for their inspiring work.”

Julian Lipscombe, Director at Bennetts Associates added: “It’s a great privilege to design on such a key site, in one of the world’s great cities with views to an icon of the ancient world. In response we have endeavoured to create a scheme that is both confident and identifiably Athenian in its DNA. It combines our vast expertise in workplace and sustainability with a sensibility to the rich cultural context and local climate. Collaborating with Dimand and Divercity Architects on this extraordinary commission has been a delight.”

Nikolas Travasaros, Founding Partner & Director at Divercity Architects said: “We are honoured to work for leading developer Dimand and alongside renowned UK practice Bennetts Associates, for this landmark project. On bustling Syngrou Avenue, we envisaged a timeless and powerful building, that will capture the unique Athenian light and reflect the cultural richness of ever-changing Athens.”

The General Secretariat for Research and Technology of the Ministry of Development and Competitiveness is responsible for designing, implementing and supervising national research and technological policy. In 2003, public spending on research and development (R&D) was 456.37 million euros, a 12.6% increase from 2002.[citation needed] Total R&D spending (both public and private) as a percentage of GDP has more than doubled since 1989, from 0.38 percent to 0.83 percent as of 2014.[citation needed] Although R&D spending in Greece remains lower than the EU average of 1.93 percent, between 1990 and 1998, total R&D expenditure in Greece enjoyed the third-highest increase in Europe, after Finland and Ireland. Because of its strategic location, qualified workforce, and political and economic stability, many multinational companies such as Ericsson, Siemens, Motorola, Coca-Cola, and Tesla[259] have their regional research and development headquarters in Greece. Greece has several major technology parks with incubator facilities and has been a member of the European Space Agency (ESA) since 2005.[260] Cooperation between ESA and the Hellenic National Space Committee began in the early 1990s. In 1994, Greece and ESA signed their first cooperation agreement. Having formally applied for full membership in 2003, Greece became the ESA’s sixteenth member on 16 March 2005. Greece participates in the ESA’s telecommunication and technology activities, and the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security Initiative. The National Centre of Scientific Research “Demokritos” was founded in 1959. The original objective of the center was the advancement of nuclear research and technology. Today, its activities cover several fields of science and engineering. Greece has one of the highest rates of tertiary enrollment in the world,[261] while Greeks are well represented in academia worldwide; many leading Western universities employ a disproportionately high number of Greek faculty.[262] Notable Greek scientists of modern times include Georgios Papanikolaou (inventor of the Pap test), mathematician Constantin Carathéodory (known for the Carathéodory theorems and Carathéodory conjecture), astronomer E. M. Antoniadi, archaeologists Ioannis Svoronos, Valerios Stais, Spyridon Marinatos, Manolis Andronikos (discovered the tomb of Philip II of Macedon in Vergina), Indologist Dimitrios Galanos, botanist Theodoros G. Orphanides, such as Michael Dertouzos, Nicholas Negroponte, John Argyris, John Iliopoulos (2007 Dirac Prize for his contributions on the physics of the charm quark, a major contribution to the birth of the Standard Model, the modern theory of Elementary Particles), Joseph Sifakis (2007 Turing Award, the “Nobel Prize” of Computer Science), Christos Papadimitriou (2002 Knuth Prize, 2012 Gödel Prize), Mihalis Yannakakis (2005 Knuth Prize) and physicist Dimitri Nanopoulos.

NOWHERE (2009) / extracts from the project by Dimitris Papaioannou from Dimitris Papaioannou on Vimeo.

NOWHERE was created by DIMITRIS PAPAIOANNOU in 2009 to inaugurate the renovated Main Stage of the Greek National Theatre in Athens.

NOWHERE explores the nature of the theatrical stage itself, a spatial mechanism continually transformed and redefined by the human presence to denote any place, and yet designed to be a non-place. 26 performers measure and mark out the space using their bodies, pitting themselves against its dimensions and technical capabilities in a site-specific performance that can be presented nowhere else.

Tο ΠΟΥΘΕΝΑ είναι ένα έργο για τον χώρο της θεατρικής σκηνής. Τον χώρο-μηχανή που μεταβάλλεται διαρκώς και καθορίζεται από την ανθρώπινη παρουσία, για να σημαίνει αμέτρητους τόπους, ενώ έχει σχεδιαστεί για να είναι μη-τόπος. 26 ερμηνευτές μετρούν και αναμετριούνται με τις διαστάσεις και δυνατότητες του χώρου σε ένα ειδικά σχεδιασμένο έργο που δεν θα μπορεί να παρουσιαστεί πουθενά αλλού.

Reviews, Uploads, Website, and Readings

Read carefully the following (also uploaded in Google Drive here):

1. Reviews for Tuesday and deliverables for assignment 2

Each team will have 20 minutes of time (buzzer will sound at 10 minutes to give time for discussion). Presentation instructions:

1. Up to 10 slides documenting:

Design concept and inspirations

Drawings and axonometrics: front/top/back/side views and axonometric (isometric view – not perspective)

Axonometric exploded view showing all parts (see example)

Analysis/explanation of how the motor works including gear ration and, if possible, kinetic energy and torque

Fabrication and assembly process

Challenges faced and solutions

Assembly analysis including: liaison graph, adjacency matrix, assembly sequence.

Flexure joint details

A conclusion with what you learned from this experiment

Use a consistent color pallet for your drawings and presentation. Diagrams and line drawings should be monotone: only one color allowed; any number of shades. Use a consistent line weight and no more than two line types. Do not present screenshots from your Rhino screen. You will be judged not only on content but also on quality of your presentation.

2. A working prototype of your car demonstrating rigidity and robustness of your design

3. Live demonstration of how your car works. Your car will need to be able to independently move for at least two feet.

2. Google Drive Uploads (due Wednesday 12pm)

Slideshow (Powerpoint or PDF)

High-resolution, high-quality photos of the final prototype (white background)

High-resolution, high-quality photos of the the assembly process (white background)

All photos must be taken using white background. You can use the table in the Urban Synergetics Lab as a proper background for photos.

A high quality video on white background video demonstrating your car moving. The camera should be still (e.g. in a tripod – not using your hands) and the entire background should be white

High resolution photorealistic renderings

The laser cut sheet files in an appropriate replicate-able format (DXF, dwg, AI, Rhino, etc)

Rhino 3D model and Grasshopper file (if used) of your final car

PDFs of drawings and axonometrics

Photos of sketches, diagrams

3. Reviewers

Confirmed reviewers include: Greg Snyder, Mark Manack, Catty Dan Zhang. Full list of reviewers will be announced on Monday.

4. Website/Blog

Each week you are required to upload and document your work in the website. Web documentation is a requirement of the class – not an optional feature and you are being graded on that. Upload your documentations in the website by the end of the day tomorrow. I expect to see a narrative of your work. See instructions posted in the blog/website here.

5. Readings and homework for next Thursday

Come prepared to discuss in class the following (all readings have been uploaded in Google Drive week 3):

Required

Read chapters 1-10 (PDF) from Petzold, Charles. Code : The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software. Book, Whole. Redmond, Wash., 2000.

Read chapters 2-5 (PDF) from Pierce, John R. Introduction to Information Theory: Symbols, Signals and Noise. Book, Whole, 2012.

Optional

Read chapters 1-2 (jpg files) from Stone, James V. Information Theory : A Tutorial Introduction. First Edition. Book, Whole. Sheffield, United Kingdom], 2015.

In teams of 3, discuss the following:

In your own words, what is Information Theory, what it allows us to know/do, and how? What is information entropy and why is it important in communication?

Discuss how Information Theory can be applied in designing/creating a communication system that is tangible (e.g. not relying on electricity or sound)? Can you imagine one? Bring examples or sketches.

When choosing which new products to develop, companies must decide how much they want to innovate. Should they make an incremental improvement on an existing product? Or should they create something entirely new?

  Dimitris Papanikolaou, a professor of finance at Kellogg, explored how this choice plays out in the pharmaceutical industry.

Some researchers argue
