Modello numerico di un argine maestro del fiume Po per l'individuazione dei possibili meccanismi di collasso

Il lavoro di tesi eseguito comprende la ricerca sulle problematiche arginali e le tipologie di intervento per la protezione idraulica del territorio. Convenzione n.37/2010 tra AdBPo e Università di Bologna. Campagna di indagini eseguite e caratterizzazione del suolo. Caratterizzazione geologica. Caratterizzazione del modello geotecnico della “sez.6_GU”, che corrisponde alla sezione “S38C” del catasto delle arginature maestre, tramite l’utilizzo delle funzioni di Excel, ed elaborazione dei risultati delle prove con la determinazione dei valori statistici dei vari parametri geotecnici, del livello di falda e delle proprietà fisico-meccaniche dei terreni. Risultati delle prove CPTU U16BR, U17BR e U18BR. Creazione del modello utilizzando dei codici agli elementi finiti Plaxis e GeoStudio per la verifica di stabilità dell’argine soggetto ad una portata di piena con tempo di ritorno Tr pari a 200 anni. Verifiche di stabilità: analisi e risultati della sezione completa per la verifica della stabilità globale; della sezione ridotta per potersi concentrare sul sistema argine-substrato di fondazione (verifica locåale in assenza di area golenale); della sezione ridotta con falda a piano campagna (per individuare se la rottura avviene per il moto di filtrazione oppure per la deformazione del modello soggetto ai carichi agenti); sezione con substrato di fondazione ridotto (per verificare la presenza di eventuali fenomeni di sifonamento modellabili nei software).

Studio morfo-batimetrico dei canali distributori del delta del Po di Pila

In questa tesi sono state analizzate, a partire da dati batimetrici ad alta risoluzione ottenuti tramite tecnologia multibeam, le morfologie caratteristiche dei tre canali tributari del Delta del Po di Pila: Busa di Dritta, Busa di Tramontana, Busa di Scirocco. Lo studio è stato effettuato col software Global Mapper, che ha permesso la mappatura e l’analisi morfometrica dei principali elementi morfologici osservati, ovvero aree depresse, zone con presenza di forme di fondo, zone a fondo piano e depositi da instabilità gravitativa sulle sponde dei canali. La loro distribuzione nei vari tratti dei canali è stata messa in relazione alle caratteristiche morfologiche e idrauliche del tratto fluviale e ai processi erosivi e deposizionali che interessano i tre canali ad intensità variabile, nell’ambito dell’evoluzione molto recente di questa porzione del delta. I risultati di questo studio indicano come l’utilizzo in ambito fluviale delle più recenti tecniche di acquisizione dei dati batimetrici multibeam possa costituire la base per un dettagliato studio delle morfologie fluviali e delle dinamiche ad esse associate.

La citta, il percorso, il fiume. Un centro culturale per le immagini del fiume Po a Piacenza.

La penisola italiana essendo quasi totalmente avvolta dal Mar Mediterraneo ha sviluppato e potenziato nei secoli le connessioni via mare, dimenticando il rapporto con le acque interne. In seguito la modernità ha disseminato il territorio di strade e ferrovie riducendo ulteriormente il valore dei percorsi fluviali come elementi di collegamento, negando l’antico rapporto che univa l’uomo, la città, con il corso d’acqua.

Impact of irrigation in the Po valley (Italy) on meteorological parameters through numerical simulation

Recent studies found that soil-atmosphere coupling features, through soil moisture, have been crucial to simulate well heat waves amplitude, duration and intensity. Moreover, it was found that soil moisture depletion both in Winter and Spring anticipates strong heat waves during the Summer. Irrigation in geophysical studies can be intended as an anthropogenic forcing to the soil-moisture, besides changes in land proprieties. In this study, the irrigation was add to a LAM hydrostatic model (BOLAM) and coupled with the soil. The response of the model to irrigation perturbation is analyzed during a dry Summer season. To identify a dry Summer, with overall positive temperature anomalies, an extensive climatological characterization of 2015 was done. The method included a statistical validation on the reference period distribution used to calculate the anomalies. Drought conditions were observed during Summer 2015 and previous seasons, both on the analyzed region and the Alps. Moreover July was characterized as an extreme event for the referred distribution. The numerical simulation consisted on the summer season of 2015 and two run: a control run (CTR), with the soil coupling and a perturbed run (IPR). The perturbation consists on a mask of land use created from the Cropland FAO dataset, where an irrigation water flux of 3 mm/day was applied from 6 A.M. to 9 A.M. every day. The results show that differences between CTR and IPR has a strong daily cycle. The main modifications are on the air masses proprieties, not on to the dynamics. However, changes in the circulation at the boundaries of the Po Valley are observed, and a diagnostic spatial correlation of variable differences shows that soil moisture perturbation explains well the variation observed in the 2 meters height temperature and in the latent heat fluxes.On the other hand, does not explain the spatial shift up and downslope observed during different periods of the day. Given the results, irrigation process affects the atmospheric proprieties on a larger scale than the irrigation, therefore it is important in daily forecast, particularly during hot and dry periods.

Patient-Oriented SCORAD (PO-SCORAD): a new self-assessment scale in atopic dermatitis validated in Europe

BACKGROund: Patient-oriented medicine is an emerging concept, encouraged by the World Health Organization, to greater involvement of the patient in the management of chronic diseases. The Patient-Oriented SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (PO-SCORAD) index is a self-assessment score allowing the patient to comprehensively evaluate the actual course of atopic dermatitis (AD), using subjective and objective criteria derived mainly from the SCORAD, a validated AD severity clinical assessment tool.

Net accumulation rates derived from ice core stable isotope records of Pío XI glacier, Southern Patagonia Icefield

Pío XI, the largest glacier of the Southern Patagonia Icefield, reached its neoglacial maximum extent in 1994 and is one of the few glaciers in that area which is not retreating. In view of the recent warming it is important to understand glacier responses to climate changes. Due to its remoteness and the harsh conditions in Patagonia, no systematic mass balance studies have been performed. In this study we derived net accumulation rates for the period 2000–2006 from a 50 m (33.2 4 m weq) ice core collected in the accumulation area of Pío XI (2600 m a.s.l., 49°16'40"S, 73°21'14"W). Borehole temperatures indicate near temperate ice, but the average melt percent is only 16 ± 14%. Records of stable isotopes are well preserved and were used for identification of annual layers. Net accumulation rates range from 3.4–7.1 water equivalent (m weq) with an average of 5.8 m weq, comparable to precipitation amounts at the Chilean coast, but not as high as expected for the Icefield. Ice core stable isotope data correlate well with upper air temperatures and may be used as temperature proxy.

Polonofilizm i polskość wśród czeskich emancypantek w drugiej połowie XIX wieku: przykład Karoliny Světlej

The awakening of national consciousness went hand in hand in Bohemia with an anxiety about national disappearance. In this context, the recourse to Pan-Slavism was for the Czechs a way to encourage themselves through the idea of belonging to a great Slavic world, while the Slavic Congress organized in Prague in 1848 was an attempt to realize this ideal. The Congress was a failure from the political point of view, but it did have some socio-cultural repercussions: notably, it served as a pretext for the advancement of women's issues in Bohemia. It is indeed in the wake of the Congress that Honorata z Wiśniowskich Zapová, a Polish women settled in Prague after her marriage to a Czech intellectual, founded, under the guise of collaboration between all Slavic women, the first women's association, as well as a (very short-lived) Czech-Polish institute, where Czech, as well as Polish girls, could get a quality education in their mother tongue. Honorata was undoubtedly the source of the polonophilia wind that seemed to blow over the Czech emancipation movement in the second half of the nineteenth century. In particular, Karolina Světlá showed in her Memoirs a great recognition for Honorata's efforts in matters of emancipation and education, and explicitly took up the challenge launched by the latter in founding another women's association and in inaugurating a school for underprivileged girls. But the tribute Světlá paid to Honorata is even more evident in her literary work, where Poland and the Polish woman (who often wears Honorata's features) play a significant role (see for example her short novel Sisters or her story A Few Days in the Life of a Prague Dandy). Světlá was probably the Czech feminist writer who, in her activities and in her work, relied most strongly on the Polish woman as a model for the Czech woman. However, she wasn't alone. In general, it was a characteristic of the Czech feminist movement of the second half of the nineteenth century to have recourse to the Polish woman and to Poland as a landmark for comparison and as a goal to be achieved.
