    Lab RENEW_MEL
    Renewable Energy and Marine Energy Lab

    Lab_RENEW_MEL is a public and private laboratory promoting the research and development of innovative systems and technologies for renewable energy. This laboratory was promoted by a three-year project funded by Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research within the National Operative Program (PON 2007-2013). The project consortium involved twelve partners. The main goal is to establish a center of excellence for research and development that is able to interface with operators in the energy sector operating at national and European level to define new paradigms for a vision towards the future of the energy production sector. The activities of this research program are aimed at identifying, designing and testing solutions for the conversion of energy from renewable sources. In this context the Reseach Group developed some issues relating to the wind sector. In particular, the following topic are faced: a) analysis of the characteristic of wind circulation on complex orographies, through real test in the wind tunnel and numerical simulations; b) analysis of the characteristics of wind circulation in an urban environment, based on data from numerical simulations and experiments; c) definition of general criteria for the assessment of the energy resource in an urban environment; d) definition of structural analyses strategy and of design criteria for wind turbines.

    GELMinCAL is a project having the dual purpose of establishing an interdisciplinary group for the study of new technologies for the generation of energy from renewable sources, the construction of a new concept wind generator prototype and the purchase of diagnostic equipment to strengthen the proposing group in the diagnostic sector. More specifically, starting from the skills existing within the group and its consultants, the following activities are developed: a) expand knowledge in the field of wind power generation studying both new technologies or technological segments; b) realize an important advance in the knowledge of numerical modeling. These activities were promoted by a three-year and half project funded by Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research within the National Operative Program (PON 2007-2013 - CUP: C31D11000090007). Within that project the research group enhance the available scientific and technological facilities and equipment. More specifically, a Leosphere WindCube V2 Lidar wind profiler, a Windmaster 3D sonic anemometer, a Granite 36-channel acquisition systems and 28 Kinemetric Episensor ES-U2 accelerometers, were acquired.

    ReLUIS
    Executive Project DPC/ReLUIS 2019-2021

    The Laboratories University Network of seismic engineering (ReLUIS), founded with conventional act signed on 17th of April of 2003, is a interuniversity consortium with the purpose to coordinate the University Laboratories activity of seismic engineering, giving scientific, organizational, technical and financial supports to associated University and promoting their participation to scientific and technological orientated activities in seismic engineering area, accordant with national and international research plans in this area. Coordination action promotes the partnerships between University, Private University, interuniversity centres (henceforth indicated with the term “University”) between them and with other research institutes and industries and promotes the development of seismic engineering laboratories according this statute, with activity of knowledge generation and circulation. The consortium is a scientific interlocutor of different governmental, regional, provincial and council agencies and of public and private institutes to get tangible objectives concerning vulnerability and risk evaluation and reduction.

    Members of the research group co-operates to the development of the activities included in the Work Packages WP5: “Rapid, low-impact and integrated retrofit interventions”, and WP12: “Contribution to standards for steel and composite steel-concrete structures for civil and industrial buildings”.

    key enabling TECHnologies and Smart environmenT in the Age of gReen economy Convergent innovations in the open space/building system for climaTe mitigation.

    Digital technologies, including Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) represent key drivers for improving both the EU competiveness and societal cohesion. There is a lack of capacity in building sector on competitive advantages and providing market opportunities in the European value chains. In such scenario the EU competences in creating responsive, self-organized and autonomous systems, finds its main failure in the difficulties of transferring such innovation in the existing market, with special regard to the construction sector. The research proposal moves from consolidate field of knowledge transfer to the new ones of the co-design and co-producing for creating comprehensive conditions for an innovative cognitive system featured by collaborative attitude and challenges responsiveness. These actions and policies drive toward a new concept of the Smart Environment defined by the union of different infrastructures and monitoring tools that allow different users accesses to a series of information concerning the environment and its critical issues, providing new social habitat in which physical and virtual realities co-exist. The study especially focuses on the opportunities of modifying the existent benchmark of GHG emissions through the application of key enabling technologies to the built environment. 

    The research is aimed at designing a dedicated methodology for transferring innovative, digital technologies to the construction sector, by the aim of improving their climate mitigation performances and environmental quality. An empirical framework of action will be tested in a set of different pilot projects ranging from social housing buildings to historical heritage to open spaces immediately referred to the buildings. The program will be developed by iterative, circular process, providing assessment of the methodological framework on the interaction between indoor space/ building envelope and between the building and the immediate outdoor environment.

    Research questions are: What are the constraints of the application of the smart environment principles and tools to the existing dwelling? What constraints for the application to construction market?

    The expected outcomes are:

    - Empirical framework for transferring the smart environment dedicated methodology to the Italian construction sector.

    - Pilot projects for testing the above-mentioned methodology to assess some key topics.

    - Conceptual model for the meta-design of digital platform for the knowledge transfer in the new smart environment.
