Deadline for submission is 31 October 2021.

The Award is open to young graduates with a Master degree in Physics, Geosciences, Geology, Geophysics, Engineering or related subjects who developed their degree thesis in seismology, geophysics or seismic engineering. Graduates can participate in the calendar year 2020 at Italian universities.

This study, carried out following a short-term seismic risk assessment system developed by Reluis, compares the risks due to earthquakes and to COVID. Such analysis shows that during the first wave the risk due to the pandemic was comparable to that of a seismic sequence of about six degrees of magnitude.

The D.L. 109/2018 (so called Genoa Decree, converted into law nr. 130, November 16th, 2018) issued after the tragic collapse of Ponte Morandi on August 14th, 2018 requires the adoption of specific guidelines to ensure the homogeneity of classification and risk management, safety assessment and monitoring of existing bridges, viaducts, overpasses, etc., providing for the involvement of the national civil protection system resources, after consulting the Board of Governors of the Public Works and the Department of Civil Protection.

ReLUIS Webinar
Monday 23 November 2020 at 14:30
Program

The Italian research in seismic engineering and the activities of Reluis 40 years after the Campanian-Lucan earthquake is the theme of the webinar to be held Monday, November 23rd, from 14:30 to 18:30. The event is organized by Reluis and the Civil Protection Department, with the collaboration of the Inarcassa Foundation. Gaetano Manfredi, Minister of University and Research, Angelo Borrelli, Head of the Department of Civil Protection, Massimo Sessa, President of the Board of Public Works, the President of the Inarcassa Foundation, Franco Fietta will open the works. After the introductions by proff. Dolce and Cosenza on the evolution of relationships between Civil Protection and scientific community and the progress and prospects of seismic and structural engineering, the current research topics of seismic engineering carried out by Reluis will be shown. Among them: risk mapping and seismic improvement interventions, actions of energy consumption reduction, seismic geotechnics issues, progress of technical standards and monitoring research and use of satellite data. The webinar registration will be available from 12:00 on Friday, November 20th on the Fondazione Inarcassa website.
Engineers and Architects will be issued nr. 3 CFP.
