RootS23 – SOIL-PLANT-ATMOSPHERE INTERACTION: mechanisms, processes and geotechnical engineering implications – Perugia 20-21 aprile 2023

L’Università degli Studi di Perugia e il Politecnico di Bari organizzano insieme il Workshop SOIL-PLANT-ATMOSPHERE INTERACTION: MECHANISMS, PROCESSES AND GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING IMPLICATIONS – RootS23 che si terrà a Perugia presso il Dipartimento di Ingegneria nei giorni 20-21 Aprile 2023. Maggiori informazioni sull’evento in questi flyer (flyer1, flyer2). Il programma preliminare è disponibile qui. Per confermare la propria partecipazione inviare una e-mail agli indirizzi:  manuela.cecconi@unipg.it, vito.tagarelli@poliba.it. Segue una breve descrizione dei contenuti del workshop.

Short description
The Workshop “SOIL-PLANT-ATMOSPHERE INTERACTION: MECHANISMS, PROCESSES AND GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING IMPLICATIONS” will focus on the current state of knowledge and research concerning the topic of soil-vegetation-atmosphere interaction. This is a very broad and multidisciplinary research theme, spanning several scientific fields, each contributing to the investigation and modeling of specific aspects of the soil and plant behavior, under variable climatic conditions. The considerable current scientific interest for this subject is testified by the numerous scientific studies published in the specialized literature over the last decade. The Workshop is mainly addressed to researchers in geotechnical engineering, but the participation of researchers working in other fields (e.g., foresters, agronomists, soil physicians, ecologists, ….) is very welcome and considered fruitful for a constructive contamination of knowledge.
The presentations will address two main aspects:
a) the mechanisms through which vegetation favours ground mechanical reinforcement;
b) the phenomena and processes underlying soil-plant-atmosphere interaction, which typically require thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupled analyses.
Invited presentations will focus in more detail on: plant’s physical and hydrological properties; root architecture and properties; experimental evidence of the effects of vegetation evolution on soil hydrological and mechanical conditions; THM numerical analysis of the soil-vegetation-atmosphere interaction; ground bio-engineering techniques for shallow slope stability. The presentations will make reference to case studies and physical modelling.
Two ‘open discussions’ will be specifically dedicated to young researchers who shall contribute with very short presentations (3-4 minutes) and/or by posing questions to the Speakers and the floor for a stimulating and informal discussion.
We hope that the workshop will represent an opportunity to share ideas and encourage new research collaborations. Looking forward to see you in Perugia kind regards,
Manuela Cecconi, Federica Cotecchia, Vincenzo Pane, Vito Tagarelli

Shallow geothermal systems for heating and cooling: geoscience and engineering approaches – session ERE2.3@EGU23 – Vienna 23-28 Aprile 2023

Si chiude il 10 gennaio 2023 (13:00) la call for abstracts della EGU23 General Assembly. Di seguito l’invito del Convener e dei Co-Conveners della sessione ERE2.3 ‘Shallow geothermal systems for heating and cooling: geoscience and engineering
approaches’. 

 

Dear collegue,
the EGU deadline for abstract submissions is approaching soon: it is fixed at January 10, 2023 at 13:00 CET. We invite you to consider submitting an abstract to the session ERE2.3 – Shallow geothermal systems for heating and cooling: geoscience and engineering approaches. The session welcomes contributions about shallow geothermal energy applications, including traditional closed- and open-loop borehole heat exchangers as well as so-called energy geostructures (e.g. thermo-active foundations, walls, tunnels). Different types of analysis and approaches are relevant to this session, spanning from the evaluation of ground thermal properties to the mapping of shallow geothermal potential, from energy storage and district heating to sustainability issues and consequences of the geothermal energy use, from the design of new heat exchangers and installation techniques to the energy and thermo-(hydro-) mechanical performance of energy geostructures, from the local behaviour of a heat exchanger to the city scale implementation of energy geostructures. Contributions based on experimental, analytical and numerical modelling are welcome as well as interventions about legislative aspect.
Instructions on how to submit an abstract can be found here. More info about the EGU23 format can be found here.

We are looking forward to see you in Vienna or online,Best Regards,
Giorgia Dalla Santa, Francesco Cecinato, Thibault Badinier
 

Multiphysics and multiscale interactions in the context of energy storage and CO2 sequestration – SEG23 (Delft, 5-8 Ottobre 2023)

Nell’ambito del Symposium on Energy Geotechnics (SEG23, sotto gli auspici del TC308 dell’ISSMGE), si terrà il Mini-Symposium “Multiphysics and multiscale interactions in the context of energy storage and CO2 sequestration”, di cui segue una breve descrizione. Si invitano tutti gli interessati a sottomettere un abstract entro il 31 gennaio 2023

Short description: Geomechanics plays an important role in many applications required to engineer the energy transition. Massive storage of energy and CO2 is planned to be done in geological structures, that will be exposed to unexperienced types of loads. Among those: cyclic pore pressure histories due to seasonal storage/production of energy, thermal loads due to the injection of fluids with different temperatures, bio-chemo-hydro-mechanical processes due to the interaction of dissolved and solid chemical species with low pH fluids, and wetting/drying processes. This mini-symposium aims at bringing together researchers working to foster a deeper understanding of such coupled multiphysics phenomena, which often require a multiscale approach (from particle to the REV, and from the REV to the well or the reservoir scale).
