INdAM Workshop MACH2023

Facade of the Dipartimento di Matematica Guido Castelnuovo

From September 11 to 15, 2023, the INdAM Workshop MACH2023 Mathematical modeling and Analysis of degradation and restoration in Cultural Heritage will be held at the National Institute of High Mathematics “Francesco Severi” near “La Sapienza Università di Roma”.

The event is sponsored by the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica “Francesco Severi” (INdAM), the Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo “Mauro Picone” in Rome (IAC), the Department of Mathematics of the University of Milan (UNIMI), the University of Sassari (UNISS) and the Istituto di Matematica Applicata e Tecnologie Informatiche “Enrico Magenes” of Genoa (IMATI). 

The Workshop focuses on mathematical modeling and simulation techniques to improve current conservation and restoration strategies for cultural heritage, sharing different experiences and approaches. The main topics of interest are: corrosion and sulfation of different materials, damage and fracture, stress in thermomechanical systems, contact and adhesion problems, phase transitions and reaction-diffusion models, restoration techniques, and additive manufacturing. The ultimate goal is to create a permanent bridge between cultural heritage experts and the mathematical community.

Dr. Barchiesi and Enrico Venditti will participate in the Workshop as speakers. More information about the program can be found on the website.
