Comparative Analysis of SPEI and WEI+ Indices: Drought and Water Scarcity in the Umbria Region, Central Italy Open
The purpose of this study is to assess the possibility of relating two phenomena: first, meteorological drought, which is exclusively dependent on climate; second, water scarcity and its uses, which are predominantly anthropogenic in natur…

SPEI and SPI correlation in the study of drought phenomena in Umbria region (central Italy) Open
This study aims to analyze the performances and correlation of the standardized precipitation index (SPI) and standardized precipitation evaporation index (SPEI) from the perspective of supplying effective indicators for drought risk manag…

An integrated approach for water-quality investigation of Piediluco lake (Italy) Open
The study aims at investigating strategies to reduce the effect of the nutrients pollution in Piediluco lake, improving the water quality and limiting the eutrophication processes. In particular, managements options operating in the body o…

Amyloidogenic and non-amyloidogenic molten globule conformation of β-lactoglobulin in self-crowded regime Open
Molecular insights on the β-lactoglobulin thermal unfolding and aggregation are derived from FTIR and UV Resonance Raman (UVRR) investigations. We propose an in situ and in real-time approach that thanks to the identification of specific s…

Modelling flood events in Venice Lagoon with a cumulant CO lattice Boltzmann shallow water model Open
<p>In this work a multi-relaxation time (MRT) Lattice Boltzmann model based on the use of non-conventional collision operator is used to simulate the flood event in Venice Lagoon.</p><p>Numerical methods (finite differenc…

Vulnerability of Hydraulic Constructions in Flood-Prone Agricultural Areas Open
The conditions of high hydraulic risk are mainly due to the interference between the river network and bridges, their relative access ramps and road embankments located in the floodplain. Actually, bridges are not always structurally adequ…

Cumulant lattice Boltzmann approach: an application to hydraulic risk Open
<p>The purpose of this work is the implementation and the application of a semi-automatic procedure for modelling flood events, based on the coupled use of a GIS subroutine and a two-dimensional (2D) lattice Boltzmann hydraulic model…

Forcing for a Cascaded Lattice Boltzmann Shallow Water Model Open
This work compares three forcing schemes for a recently introduced cascaded lattice Boltzmann shallow water model: a basic scheme, a second-order scheme, and a centred scheme. Although the force is applied in the streaming step of the latt…

Lattice Boltzmann shallow water equations for large scale hydraulic analysis Open
This thesis presents a new lattice Boltzmann model for both steady and unsteady two-dimensional shallow water equations. Throughout this work, the usage of different collision operators (CO) for the lattice Boltzmann solution of shallow wa…

Accuracy Analysis of a Dam Model from Drone Surveys Open
This paper investigates the accuracy of models obtained by drone surveys. To this end, this work analyzes how the placement of ground control points (GCPs) used to georeference the dense point cloud of a dam affects the resulting three-dim…
