Synergy between public space politics and mobility strategies
¿Hasta qué punto y en qué circunstancias movilidad, como aspecto funcional e inevitable del entorno humano,
se puede convertir en un elemento afirmativo de espacio público dándole un nuevo significado y un valor
añadido? Diálogo entre movilidad y espacio público se puede explicar mediante la comprensión de las
estrategias de movilidad como partidario de la integración de diferentes lógicas urbanas, observando
infraestructura como un elemento de configuración de espacio público y al cuestionar transporte como pivote
del carácter e identidad de espacio público. El objetivo principal de esta discusión es la integración urbana y
contextual de los sistemas de transporte vistos como confluencias de lógica urbana y lógica de transporte
desarrolladas como una sola expresión. Armonizando esta paradoja es posible crear sinergias entre espacio
público y transporte que ganan nuevas dimensiones.Up to which point and under which circumstances mobility, as a functional and an inevitable aspect of the
human environment, can become an affirmative element of public space giving it a new significance and an
additional value? Dialog between mobility and public space can be explained by understanding mobility
strategies as a supporter of integration of different urban logics, by observing infrastructure as an element of
public space configuration and by questioning transport as a pivot of public space character and identity. The
main focus of this discussion is on mobility lines, specifically urban and contextual integration of transport
systems seen as a crossroads between urban and transport logic, developed as a single expression.
Harmonizing this paradox it is possible to create synergies between public space and mobility which gain new
dimensions
On Limits of Dense Packing of Equal Spheres in a Cube
We examine packing of congruent spheres in a cube when is close but
less than the number of spheres in a regular cubic close-packed (ccp)
arrangement of spheres. For this family of packings, the
previous best-known arrangements were usually derived from a ccp by omission of
a certain number of spheres without changing the initial structure. In this
paper, we show that better arrangements exist for all . We introduce an optimization method to reveal improvements of
these packings, and present many new improvements for
