A mixed elastic-rigid model for masonry structures
(2021-07-16)
Masonry is one of the oldest construction materials used by man and still
widespread worldwide. Historic buildings with a masonry structure are generally
admirable engineering works with paramount socio-economic value
and ...
Methodological approach for the analysis of safety in road tunnels with reference to the thermal effects on the structure
(2021-12-22)
The major risks for users in the event of a tunnel fire derive from the high temperatures generated by the burning vehicle, the smoke that progressively fills the tunnel reducing the visibility for people evacuation, the ...
Monitoring strategies and warning models for weather-induced landslides
(2019-04-16)
Weather
induced landslides cause a large number of casualties as well as
severe economic losses worldwide every year. Such a diffuse risk cannot
be mitigated only by means of structural works, typically characterized ...
Pseudo dynamic tests and numerical analysis of free from damage multistorey steel buildings with innovative connections
(2019-04-17)
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 ...
Transport modelling and contaminant fate in unsaturated soils: analysis and perspectives
(2021-08-23)
In recent years, the contamination of groundwater has become a growing threat at
global scale. The improper release of chemicals from numerous and different sources
(landfills, leaking storage tanks, etc.) in the subsurface ...
Recupero e valorizzazione del patrimonio ferroviario metropolitano della Regione Campania. Un modello tecnico-economico di governance
(2019-03-25)
The research was aimed at developing a technical-economic governance model for the enhancement of railway assets and in particular of unmanned or underused stations. Through the analysis of the most recent examples of ...
How sustainable drainage systems may improve city resilience: experimental insights, urban design modeling and performance assessment at the catchment scale
(2021-08-31)
This research aimed at investigating the potential of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) in the mitigation of flooding risk in urban areas... [edited by Author]
Il rischio di periferizzazione nelle aree urbane e metropolitane. Una proposta metodologica per l'analisi e la mitigazione
(2021-02-20)
As cities and poverty continue to grow worldwide, both ‘spatial’ and ‘a-spatial’ peripheralization processes expose entire urban and metropolitan areas at risk of degradation, not just traditional peripheries. The spatial ...
Local buckling of aluminium members in the elastic-plastic range
(2021-03-01)
The ultimate behaviour of aluminium members is strongly affected by the interactive local buckling in the elastic-plastic range occurring in the element plates constituting the cross-sections and by the strain-hardening ...
Innovative traffic flow modelling tools for advanced urban traffic control
(2021-02-24)
The current evolution of vehicles with the development of new on-board technologies, allow for increasingly more connected vehicles, which also enables the development of more intelligent and autonomous vehicles. The result ...
