Development and validation of new adaptive finite elements for complex aerospace problems

In aerospace engineering, the structural analysis of aircraft, spacecraft, and related components requires highly accurate numerical models to predict behaviour under various operational conditions. Traditional finite element methods (FEM) rely on standard mesh structures, which may not always provide the optimal geometry for capturing the complexity of certain shapes or stress distributions. To address this, adaptive meshes offer a way to design non-conventional, flexible elements that...

Model-based design for increasing reliability and safety of autonomous systems

This thesis presents a model-based design framework to enhance the safety and security of autonomous systems against cyber attacks. As modern autonomous systems, particularly Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), become increasingly interconnected, they face growing threats that differ significantly from conventional IT network attacks. These control theoretic attacks allow an intelligent adversary to manipulate physical processes by compromising sensors or actuators, leading, possibly, to catastroph...

Fra’ Domingo de Petrés e le volte tabicadas nel Nuovo Regno di Granada: documentazione storica, rilievi e rappresentazione grafica = Fra Domingo de Petrés and the Tabicada vaults in the New Kingdom of Granada: historical documentation, surveys and graphic representation

La figura del frate cappuccino Fray Domingo de Petrés (1759–1811) rappresenta un passaggio fondamentale nella transizione architettonica del Nuovo Regno di Granada tra la fine del XVIII secolo e i primi decenni del XIX secolo. Tuttavia, la storiografia ha tradizionalmente affrontato la sua opera in modo frammentario, perpetuando imprecisioni biografiche e interpretando la sua formazione prevalentemente attraverso la categoria dell’autodidattismo, spesso associata alla lettura dei trattati di ...
