Surface-cover controls on reference-to-actual evaporation in silty pyroclastic soils of Campania region, Italy: evidence from an 12-year lysimeter experiment

Study region pyroclastic soils investigated in this study are widespread on natural slopes, not only in Italy (particularly in the Campania region), but also in numerous volcanic regions worldwide. Their intrinsic and state-dependent properties make them highly sensitive to soil–...

Numerical investigation of transom and double interceptor systems on a high-speed planing craft in regular waves with experimental validation

High-speed planing craft (HSPC) operating in waves can experience severe vertical motions and impact accelerations, potentially affecting operational performance and occupant safety. This study investigates the effects of a transom interceptor system (TIS) and a double intercepto...

Hierarchical maritime traffic network generation from large AIS datasets: application to the West Mediterranean Sea case

Abstract We present a hierarchical scalable methodology to analyze the maritime traffic of year 2022 associated with cargo, tanker, and passenger vessels traveling within the West Mediterranean Sea. The methodology is based on data-mining and machine learning techniques to proces...
