The Visualisation of Cosmological Ideas in Contemporary Architecture [PDF]
Философия и космология, 2022 This article examines the influence of cosmological concepts on the formation of the new aesthetics of contemporary architecture. Architecture, since ancient times, has been a visualisation of man’s ideas about the structure of the cosmos.

A Rotating Satellite Plane around Milky Way–like Galaxy from the TNG50 Simulation
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We study the satellite plane problem of the Milky Way (MW) by using the recently published simulation data of TNG50-1. Here, we only consider the satellite plane consisting of the brightest 14 MW satellites (11 classical satellites plus Canes Venatici I,

Applying scale-free mass estimators to the Local Group in Constrained Local Universe Simulations [PDF]
, 2012 We use the recently proposed scale-free mass estimators to determine the masses of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) galaxy in a dark matter only Constrained Local UniversE Simulation (CLUES).

Metaphysics in Architecture- The Jewish Museum in Berlin case study [PDF]
Journal of Architecture, Art & Humanistic Science, 2023 There are many sources that architects rely on as an intellectual impetus for their inspiration in architecture concepts and projects design. One of the most influential sources is the metaphysical legacies of previous civilizations and religions that ...

The rotationally stabilized VPOS and predicted proper motions of the Milky Way satellite galaxies [PDF]
, 2013 The satellite galaxies of the Milky Way (MW) define a vast polar structure (VPOS), a thin plane perpendicular to the MW disc. Proper motion (PM) measurements are now available for all of the 11 brightest, `classical' satellites and allow an updated ...

The alignment of galaxy spin with the shear field in observations
, 2015 Tidal torque theory suggests that galaxies gain angular momentum in the linear stage of structure formation. Such a theory predicts alignments between the spin of haloes and tidal shear field.

Libeskind and the Holocaust Metanarrative; from Discourse to Architecture
Open Cultural Studies, 2017 The Holocaust today resides between memory and postmemory. Initially, children of survivors and their contemporaries inherited a mediated past and bore full responsibility for disseminating their ancestors’ experiences.

Cosmic web alignments with the shape, angular momentum and peculiar velocities of dark matter haloes [PDF]
, 2014 We study the alignment of dark matter haloes with the cosmic web characterized by the tidal and velocity shear fields. We focus on the alignment of their shape, angular momentum and peculiar velocities. We use a cosmological N-body simulation that allows

Addition to historic building: A hermeneutic interpretation
Cogent Arts & Humanities, 2022 Building conservation is an act designated to safeguard historic buildings from deterioration and eventual demolition. However, additions are essential to maintain the historic building’s function in many cases.

Constrained simulations of the Local Group: on the radial distribution of substructures [PDF]
, 2009 We examine the properties of satellites found in high resolution simulations of the local group. We use constrained simulations designed to reproduce the main dynamical features that characterize the local neighborhood, i.e. within tens of Mpc around the
