Countries are increasingly expected to secure sustainable and reliable energy for all. This is however challenging in developing countries, which often suffer from inadequate infrastructure. Focusing on film stores, such a poor supply of energy can prevent them from preserving the cultural heritage related to photographic films. Hence, this paper tests various service-side and construction-side solutions, in order to investigate the potential of film stores to attain net zero and reliable energy, and support decarbonisation and film preservation. An exemplar film store is modelled in different locations in the Global South. The predicted trade-offs between energy use and the usable life of films are presented, providing useful design guidance.

Abstract In this case study an extensive root cause analysis was performed on a compressor test rig following the observation of unexpected high amplitude vibrations during the rig commissioning. Typically, the location and the frequency of an observed vibration is not enough to pinpoint the cause of the behavior in a system with multiple components. The test rig comprising of an electric motor, gearbox and compressor rotor may be subject to rotordynamics, torsional dynamics, mechanical eigenfrequencies and fluid dynamics in the compressor. In order to understand the source of the vibrations observed at the gearbox, lateral vibrations of the casing and torsional vibrations of the rotor were measured simultaneously. In parallel, the system was modeled in MADYN 2000 in order to match the observations with theoretical torsional eigenmodes of the drivetrain. The modeling of the system resulted in a torsional eigenfrequency lying within 10% of the observed gearbox vibration, making it a viable candidate to excite gearbox vibrations through a varying torque. To be able to measure this mode shape, a temporal measurement setup for torsional vibrations had to be installed. The measurements of the test campaign revealed that a torsional resonance is indeed present at the frequency of the observed vibrations. However, a lack of coherence between the torsional and lateral vibrations suggests that the torsional resonance is not the root cause of the gearbox vibrations. Two separate resonances were observed as the gear mesh frequency crossed the torsional eigenfrequency and the observed high amplitude gearbox vibration. Evidence of a structural eigenfrequency of the gearbox was found through an impact test. Although the torsional resonance is ruled out as the root cause, it is presumed that the two resonances do experience a positive coupling, causing the particularly high gearbox vibrations.

Based on Pininfarina Nido EV concept, EVolution aims to reduce the vehicle weight through new materials and process technologies, focused on five demonstrators: underbody, front crossbeam, mechanical subframe, shotgun system and door. This paper refers to body structure design strategies using new composite, Al materials and enabled technologies, focusing in particular on demonstrators design and manufacturing. The new front crossbeam geometry of the front shell is adapted starting from the Nanotough design, while the rear shell is specific for EVolution. The subframe demonstrator is redesigned to fulfil mechanical requirements of the part and manufacturing feasibility either. The EVolution door concept consists of two semistructural composite skins including a structural Al frame. The underbody is conceived through an integrated approach, optimising each element for its function. The shotgun component is designed to link parts obtained with different manufacturing technologies and several aluminium alloys in one single component: the structural node demonstrator.

Informed by research over the past two years and the work of colleagues in peer institutions, the IFI Irish Film Archive developed a six-year Digital Preservation and Access strategy which launched in 2014. Fundamental to this Strategy was the design and installation of digital archive tools for long term preservation and the redesign of workflow practices to facilitate accession and management of high resolution digital film and broadcast assets and associated metadata. This article outlines the steps taken and standards applied in developing a future proof digital audiovisual archive.

Los archivos audiovisuales son enormes cuerpos de conocimiento cultural y colecciones de experiencias humanas que llegan a la vida solamente cuando los contenidos estan siendo reutilizados y confrontados con el presente a traves de esta distancia confrontacional historica de las diferencias culturales y su desarrollo muchas veces llega a ser comprensible. Esta mision fundamental esta presente a traves del programa de este Seminario y es tambien el corazon de la FIAT, como asociacion mundial, es por tanto un honor para esta asociacion apoyar este importante evento en America Latina y tener varios representantes de nuestra organizacion involucrados activamente en ponencias y en talleres.
