Strike! Strike! Strike! - Here the
letter
(in Italian)
providing details on the strike announced for the first exam session in
September 2017 and subscribed by Angelo Farina, together with 5500
university professors adhering to
MDDU.
At
the University of Parma, 279 academics over 830 did already adhere to the
strike.
Here an article (in Italian) providing a neutral and independent
analysis of the goals of the strike.
And here our document, containing the
manifest of strikers.

Receiving period => |
Friday 10.30-12.30 (starting 1st October 2017), building # 7 of
Engineering, ground floor.

RAMSETE |
Angelo is one of the three authors of
Ramsete,
a powerful computer program (based on the innovative Pyramid Tracing
algorithm) for the simulation of the acoustics of closed spaces, which
can be used also outdoors.
|
 |
- Angelo is the
author of Aurora, a
collection of plugins for measuring, filtering and
convolving the Impulse Responses of theatres and other spaces.
The applications of this Virtual Acoustics technique range from
subjective evaluation of the acoustic design to high quality reverberation and
spatialisation of music for the broadcasting and recording industry.
A remarkable example of the results of the above research is the auralisation (virtual
audio reconstruction) of ancient theatres, as the
Teatro
degli Intrepidi in Ferrara, the Teatro Greco-Romano
in Siracusa , the Teatro Farnese in
Parma or the
Gran
Teatro La Fenice in Venice.
|
 |
- Angelo is the
author of DISIA, a package of software tools aimed to
simulation and mapping of environmental noise in urban areas.
This project was supported by the Italian Ministry for
the Environment, and the DISIA package is now available for free usage
to qualified subjects (research and no-profit institutions, public
administration offices, etc.).

Papers
Angelo Farina is the author of more than 250 scientific papers; most of them
are in English. The large part of them are about various branches of Acoustics,
although some are on thermal sciences and fluid dynamics.
