SUMMARY:PhDTalks | Timber for Hybrid Structures: an innovative perspective from numerical modeling to environmental assessment
DESCRIPTION:Il prossimo appuntamento con la serie di incontri PhDTalks si terrà Martedì 2 Maggio nell’aula 2.1.3 (Edificio 2)\, dalle 17:15 alle 18:30 CET. \nPhDTalks è una serie di seminari e discussioni tra dottorandi. Gli eventi hanno lo scopo di fornire un luogo dove creare un network tra dottorandi ed entrare in contatto con i molti progetti sviluppati nel nostro dipartimento. \nLa speaker Laura Corti condurrà un seminario dal titolo “Timber for Hybrid Structures: an innovative perspective from numerical modeling to environmental assessment”.  \nAl termine dell’evento sarà disponibile un piccolo rinfresco finanziato dal dipartimento. \nSarà possibile seguire la conferenza anche online al seguente link. \nAbstract: \nIn the current context of climate change\, structural engineers struggle every day with an alarming fact: building sector contributes to 30% of global greenhouse emissions. One of the developing topic of research is characterised by bio-based structural materials\, in particular timber and engineered wood. Hybridisation of timber with other materials provides many advantages\, as better performances e.g. in case of seismic loads\, minor construction times and lower environmental impact. The topic of this talk focuses of some innovative research aspects of timber-hybrid structures\, first of all considering some numerical modeling benchmark analyses with issues specifically linked with timber orthotropy and contacts among other materials and secondly a comparative Life Cycle Assessment analysis where two equivalent buildings are compared and the role of connectors is highlighted. The perspective of this presentation suggests an overview of the interdisciplinarity of this topic\, where traditional structural problems are tackled together with sustainability issues. \nSpeaker’s bio: \nLaura graduated with a Master in Civil Engineering for Risk Mitigation (CERM) in Politecnico di Milano in 2021. She is currently enrolled in the second year of the PhD programme in Structural\, Seismic\, and Environmental Engineering (XXXVII cycle) at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of Politecnico di Milano. She is involved in the modeling\, testing and development of timber-concrete hybrid composites\, with a special focus on sustainability. In the free time Laura enjoys going to the theater\, hiking and swimming.

SUMMARY:PhDTalks | Numerical simulation of 3D Concrete Printing: challenges and opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Il prossimo appuntamento con la serie di incontri PhDTalks si terrà Martedì 16 Maggio nell’aula 2.1.3 (Edificio 2)\, dalle 17:15 alle 18:30 CET. \nPhDTalks è una serie di seminari e discussioni tra dottorandi. Gli eventi hanno lo scopo di fornire un luogo dove creare un network tra dottorandi ed entrare in contatto con i molti progetti sviluppati nel nostro dipartimento. \nLo speaker Giacomo Rizzieri condurrà un seminario dal titolo “Numerical simulation of 3D Concrete Printing: challenges and opportunities”.  \nAl termine dell’evento sarà disponibile un piccolo rinfresco finanziato dal dipartimento. \nSarà possibile seguire la conferenza anche online al seguente link. \nAbstract: \n3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) is rapidly gaining momentum in the building industry\, as it could be the way to achieve a fully automatized and more sustainable construction process. However\, before a large-scale adoption of this technology takes place\, it is necessary to address some issues both at the practical and numerical levels. The development of reliable computational tools would provide a better understanding of the printing process\, while also enabling the prediction\, in a design framework\, of its outcomes. In this talk\, it is presented a numerical model to simulate the extrusion and layer deposition phases of cementitious materials. The model assimilates fresh concrete to a homogeneous weakly-compressible fluid and solves the Navier-Stokes equations in a Lagrangian framework with the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM). Different numerical challenges will be addressed regarding the imposition of time-dependent moving boundary conditions\, the accurate treatment of inter-layer contact and the reduction of the computational cost. \nSpeaker’s bio: \nGiacomo is a PhD Candidate in Structural\, Seismic and Geotechnical Engineering (37° cycle) at Politecnico di Milano. He has a Master of Science in Structural Engineering obtained in 2021 at Politecnico di Milano. Currently\, he is in the second year of his PhD and he is involved in the development of new computational tools to simulate 3D Concrete Printing. In his free time Giacomo enjoys hiking\, reading and watercolor painting.

SUMMARY:2023 Turkey-Syria Earthquake: Overview of One of the Deadliest Seismic Event in History
DESCRIPTION:Giovedì 25 Maggio si svolgerà presso l’aula B.6.1 (Edificio 14 – Nave\, piazza Leonardo da Vinci 32) \, un seminario dal titolo “2023 Turkey-Syria Earthquake: Overview of One of the Deadliest Seismic Event in History” tenuto da Giulia Jole Sechi\, dottoranda in “role of digital technology in informal settlements construction” presso l’Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (Barcelona). \nSarà possibile seguire l’evento anche online tramite il seguente link. \nAbstract \nA devastating earthquake of 7.8 on the Richter scale hit Southern Türkiye in the early hours of 6 February with its epicenter. The earthquake affected an area approximately 500km long\, where almost 16 million people reside including about 1.8 million Syrian refugees. A second major earthquake hit the region after 9 hours with 7.5 magnitude\, causing further destruction of damaged buildings. Approximately 2.4 million people are currently living in temporary shelters\, the victims are more than 50\,000. We will present a gallery of photos and videos from the field whose aim is to outline the main damage types and structural failures observed. We will also outline the damage and repair methodology that is being implemented by the local government\, international organisations and Miyamoto International to accelerate the return home of internally displaced people. \nSpeaker’s biosketch \nGiulia Jole Sechi graduated in 2013 in civil structural engineering from Politecnico di Milano with a thesis partially written in Peru on earth dwellings reinforced with used car tyre straps. She then lived two years in Chad and three years in New Zealand\, where she worked on the 2010-2011 Christchurch and 2016 Kaikoura earthquakes. Giulia also worked in Nepal with UNDP for the 2015 Gorkha earthquake\, before going to Tanzania and India. She has worked as structural engineering consultant for Miyamoto International on the 2021 Haiti earthquake response and is now Corporate Structural Engineer at Miyamoto International. As part of her job she has been deployed in Turkey right after the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquake. She is also currently pursuing her PhD on the role of digital technology in informal settlements construction at Universitat Internacional de Catalunya\, Barcelona.

SUMMARY:PhDTalks | Acceleration of high-resolution simulations of pollutants dispersion in atmosphere performed with a Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model
DESCRIPTION:Il prossimo appuntamento con la serie di incontri PhDTalks si terrà Martedì 30 Maggio nell’aula 2.1.3 (Edificio 2)\, dalle 17:15 alle 18:30 CET. \nPhDTalks è una serie di seminari e discussioni tra dottorandi. Gli eventi hanno lo scopo di fornire un luogo dove creare un network tra dottorandi ed entrare in contatto con i molti progetti sviluppati nel nostro dipartimento. \nLa speaker Daniela Barbero condurrà un seminario dal titolo “Acceleration of high-resolution simulations of pollutants dispersion in atmosphere performed with a Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model”.  \nAl termine dell’evento sarà disponibile un piccolo rinfresco finanziato dal dipartimento. \nSarà possibile seguire la conferenza anche online al seguente link. \nAbstract: \nAtmospheric dispersion modelling is becoming increasingly important for the air quality assessment of urban environments\, especially in residential areas\, for regulatory purposes and to project pollution control strategies. Estimating urban air quality is challenging\, because of the intrinsic characteristics of cities atmospheric structure\, such as high density of primary emissions and presence of local dispersion processes\, that produce strong concentration gradients. Therefore\, very high spatial resolution simulations may often be required to improve the accuracy of estimations. Consequently\, the use of microscale atmospheric dispersion models in long-term studies and forecasting systems is growing. However\, this modelling can be ambitious because of the amount of time and CPU required for the simulations\, especially if the computational domain has a significant extension. \nThis work presents the use of kernel method as alternative to the common box-counting method to compute concentration inside the microscale Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model PSPRAY. The kernel method allows a reduction of computational particles emitted during the simulation; it enables therefore to optimize the overall computational costs of the simulation\, ensuring at the same time results with an accuracy similar to that of box counting method. \nThe method has been tested to compute hourly ground concentration and deposition fields of gaseous and particulate pollutants emitted by point and linear sources\, evaluated both inside a domain divided in tiles and inside a nested domains configuration. The implementation inside PSPRAY has made possible to reduce the computational time of a simulation from 70% to 80%. Therefore\, it led to an enhancement of the efficiency of model and to a widening of its application field. \nThe PSPRAY model\, optimized with the kernel method\, has been already extensively applied to evaluate the impact of road emissions in the city of Rome\, in the frame of Italian research project BEEP (Big data in Environmental and occupational Epidemiology). This implementation allowed to perform a microscale simulation over the city\, considering a 12×12 km2 domain with a horizontal resolution of 4 m and producing hourly ground concentration fields of the pollutants for an entire year\, obtaining an average computational time of 3 hours per simulated day on an HPC (High Performance Computing) system with 180 cores. \nSpeaker’s bio: \nDaniela is a candidate of an Executive PhD in Environmental Engineering and Infrastructure (35° cycle) at Politecnico di Milano in collaboration with ARIANET s.r.l.\, of which she has been an employee since 2019\, after obtaining a Master of Science in Environmental And Land Planning Engineering at Politecnico di Milano. \nARIANET is an Italian consultant company in the field of atmospheric environment and Daniela is involved both in carrying out atmospheric impact studies and in the development of the used models\, in particular Lagrangian Particle Dispersion models. \nIn her free time\, Daniela enjoys reading books and travelling.
