Reference excerpt

The Palazzo Felicini is a Renaissance style palace in Via Riva di Reno 79 in central Bologna, Italy.

As with many of the palaces in the crowded center of Bologna, the piano nobile and facade extend up to the street over an arcaded front. The building stands across from the Palazzo Bonasoni. While Aristotele Fioravanti may have undertaken some work on the palace before leaving the city in the 1470s, the building as we see it today was constructed in 1497, for Bartolomeo Felicini, a prominent member of the local nobility, a banker and city senator. From the time of the expulsion of the tyrant Giovanni II Bentivoglio by the military forces of Pope Julius II, the Felicini family remained prominent and a member was present in the city senate until 1584. The palace was purchased in 1537 by Cardinal Antonio Pucci, to mark the Pucci family's formal presence in the city. Upon Pucci’s death in 1544 the palace was sold by his heirs to the Fibbia family who, like the Felicini family, formed part of the local oligarchy. It was to remain in the Fibbia family until 1746 (hence the name Palazzo Felicini Fibbia). The exterior has terracotta decorations. The interiors were frescoed by Angelo Michele Colonna and Giacomo Alboresi (Assumption of the Virgin, Family Chapel); Domenico Santi and Domenico Maria Canuti (Allegory of Aurora, Triumph of Bacchus and Ariadne, and Dusk on the piano nobile, 1664); and Death of Phaeton also by Alboresi and Colonna. Extensive restorations were undertaken in 1905.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Palazzo Felicini, Bologna

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Palazzo Felicini, Bologna claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Palazzo Felicini, Bologna before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Palazzo Felicini, Bologna ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Palazzo Felicini, Bologna

In research: Palazzo Felicini, Bologna appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Palazzo Felicini, Bologna in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Palazzo Felicini, Bologna is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Buildings and structures completed in 1497, Houses completed in the 15th century, Italian palace stubs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Palazzo Felicini, Bologna outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
