In the last decades, atmospheric pollution has become an increasingly alarming problem, due to its adverse effects at the global, regional and local scales. In this context, the emissions of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs), ...

One of the most widespread structural systems is represented by Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs). resistant seismic frames. This structural system is made up of frames capable of resisting seismic actions through predominantly ...

Large deformation analysis has become recently centre of attraction in geotechnical design. It is used to predict geotechnical boundary value problems such as, excessive movement of soil masses like landslides ...

Since the end of the eighties, numerous studies have been conducted analysing the relationship between the infrastructures and the economic development of the territory, highlighting its close correlation. In the last ...

Il progetto di riqualificazione delle strutture per la salute rappresenta una valida occasione per restituire un servizio essenziale ad un intero contesto territoriale. Ma, ancora di più, la qualità progettuale/architettonica ...

The aim of this thesis is to introduce the reader to nanotechnologies and functionally graded nanomaterials by providing definitions, classifications and potential applications. In particular, the thesis summarizes the ...

Recent destructive seismic events have underlined the need for increasing research efforts devoted to the development of innovative seismic-resilient structures able to reduce seismic-induced direct and indirect losses. ...

This work aims at the definition, application and validation of a simplified performance-based method for the evaluation of seismic performances of steel buildings. Reference is made to steel Moment Resisting Frames ...

Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials are appealing as alternative to traditional construction materials due to their high tensile strength, excellent resistance to aggressive environments, high strength to weight ratio, ...

L'oggetto della presente ricerca ha riguardato alcuni edifici religiosi delle province ecclesiastiche campane. Lo studio di ricerca ha analizzato l'edificio sacro dal punto di vista architettonico e simbolico. La ricerca ...
