The Use of Storm Models in the Field of Ocean Engineering
Valentina Laface
Assistant Professor
University of Reggio Calabria Italy
Wednesday 9/3/2022, Time: 11:00
Webinar: MS Teams Live Streaming: DIAVLOS, YouTube
Abstract: The category of Storm Models approach will be discussed in detail with reference to each of the models belonging to this category. Their application for long-term analysis of ocean storm will be explained and analogies and differences among them will be highlighted. Further, alternative use of this models for ocean engineering application such as energy and downtime estimation as well as extreme wind speed calculation will be presented. These models have the peculiarity to use a simplified storm time history to model the specific problem whatever is the kind of analysis. The simplified storm differs from one model to another and is determined by imposing a kind of equivalence between important storm parameters of actual and equivalent storm.
Short Bio: Valentina Laface is PhD in Ocean Engineering and currently is working as Assistant Professor at Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Italy. She is teaching at courses of Harbour Engineering and Offshore Wind Enegry at Master Degree programs. Her field of expertise concerns ocean energies, in particular wind and wave technologies and resources assessment, wave mechanics and statistics, time series analysis, wave modeling.

The SIM4NEXUS Serious Game
UNIVERSITY OF THESSALY
School of Engineering - Department of Civil Engineering
Series of Scientific Lectures

The SIM4NEXUS Serious Game
Chrysi Laspidou
Professor
Department of Civil Engineering UTH
Wednesday 12/01/2022, Time:11:00
Webinar: Microsoft Teams
Live Streaming: DIAVLOS, YouTube
Abstract: A Serious Game (http://seriousgame.sim4nexus.eu/), produced by the Eu-funded Horizon 2020 SIM4NEXUS project, will be presented. The Serious game is a computer game that aids learning about the Nexus by helping users to understand and explore the interactions between water, energy, land and food resources management under a climate change context, divides the problem into manageable interventions, and allows participants to learn by doing. It is built upon system dynamics models with a sound scientific basis. The ultimate goal of game development is to create a fun and interactive capacity-building tool to be used in research, educational settings and management. The Serious Game enables players to implement policies in a gameplay environment and explore how policies impact on different Nexus components. Summary information is given about policy actions, assigned costs and potential benefits; this facilitates scorekeeping according to both financial and social capital metrics. Costs are tallied against benefits, which are revealed as gameplay progresses. This allows a player to measure progress and compare to others. The Serious game includes a strategy map that facilitates comparison of policy impacts in different regions, a virtual card table in which policy cards can be applied through a drag-and-drop interface, and a visualization system that shows the impacts of users’ decisions on the model.
The workshop will be conducted virtually. Interactive audience engagement platforms will be applied seeking the active involvement of the participants.

The circulation of images in Socialist Albania: the case of photography
In this presentation, I consider the socialist period in Albania (1944-1991) through the production, circulation and uses of photographs. My aim is to challenge the common view of socialist Albania as an isolated country closed behind its borders. A phenomenology of photography reveals on the contrary continuous circulation of photographs and mobility of photographers within and outside the country. Moreover, this examination opens the path for a deeper analysis of the relationship between images and mobility in this particular context and beyond.
