The hygrothermal simulation of hygroscopic building materials is a real challenge, in terms of regulations and labelling, but also in decision-making. Today, we lack reference models …
The structural system integrity in historical masonry buildings is studied by developing the concept of the Digital Twin. The objectives are to develop a procedure for creating an …
Recent ground-breaking advances in sensing technologies, data processing, and structural identification have made Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) occupy a central place in …
This paper presents a case study regarding the cooperative use of non-destructive contactless diagnostic investigations as a tool to aid and assist the degradation evaluation of …
A critical aspect in structural health monitoring (SHM) applied to civil engineering structures is the lack of diagnostic labels able to assign a damage class to the measured data. In this …
Climate change (CC) has an impact on degradation mechanisms in building envelopes. A climate-based analysis (only using climate variables) or a response-based analysis (based …
The present research paper properly focuses on the dynamics and failure mechanisms of the masonry “Apennine Church” of Santissimo Crocifisso in Pretare, municipality of Arquata …
Historic buildings account for more than one-quarter of Europe's existing building stock and are going to be crucial in the achievement of future energy targets. Although a drastic …
This paper presents a novel methodology for earthquake-induced damage identification of historical constructions through sparse multivariate regression. The proposed methodology …
