Monitoraggio integrato per il controllo di una frana antica nell'abitato di Maierato (VV-Calabria)

Nel febbraio del 2010 nei pressi dell'abitato di Maierato, in provincia di Vibo Valentia, si è verificata una frana profonda, evoluta in colata veloce, che ha determinato una condizione di grave emergenza. Le attività di studio e indagine condotte nell'ambito dell'Ordinanza della Presidenza del…

Improving predictive quality of Kriging metamodel by variogram adaptation

Application of interpolation/approximation techniques (metamodels, for brevity) is commonly adopted in numerical optimization, typically to reduce the overall execution time of the optimization process. A limited number of trial solution are computed, cov- ering the design variable space: those…

An entropy-based model for a fast computation of SSIM

The paper presents a model for assessing image quality from a subset of pixels. It is based on the fact that human beings do not explore the whole image information for quantifying its degree of distortion. Hence, the vision process can be seen in agreement with the Asymptotic Equipartition…

3D Wet Refractivity Monitoring Using Gnss Tomography Technique Constrained with Airs Data

A Global Navigational Satellite System (GNSS) tomography experiment has been performed for 1 week, introducing Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) remote sensing data to initiate and update a 3D wet refractivity hourly solution series of the troposphere. Some qualitative and quantitate studies have…

Modelling drug release from composite capsules and nanoparticles

We present a general mechanistic model of mass diffusion for a composite sphere placed in a large ambient medium. The multi-layer problem is described by a system of diffusion equations coupled via interlayer boundary conditions such as those imposing a finite mass resistance at the external…

Epidemics in a Synthetic Urban Population with Multiple Levels of Mixing

Network-based epidemic models that account for heterogeneous contact patterns are extensively used to predict and control the diffusion of infectious diseases. We use census and survey data to reconstruct a geo-referenced and age-stratified synthetic urban population connected by stable social…
