Augmented reality for cultural heritage: a new dimension for the perceptual knowledge
Authors: Fistola R , Rastelli A , Pham C , Amore F O 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The paper presents an innovative way of conceiving the museum exhibit particularly useful in those territorial contexts in which it is possible to simultaneously show the place of discovery of the exhibit n (contextualizing it through the virtual reproduction of the historical scenario) and the find itself adding to this the possibility of narrating one’s own history and characteristics. The entire meta-project is designed for the Pietraroja site in the province of Benevento which would acquire considerable cultural interest thanks to the potential of augmented and mixed reality. The main idea is to use this new technology to involve the user (observer) by rebuilding the environment and the peculiarities of the finds. The perception of the augmented elements will be possible by design a specific application for smartphone that everyone gets in its pocket.
Standard Cataloguing of Augmented Objects for a Design Museum
Authors: Patti Isabella 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Demo-ethno-anthropological assets belonging to the cultural heritage are not “autonomous” but represent the nodes of a complex system of relations. Their narration – for the purposes of knowledge and cultural diffusion – cannot transcend this relational dimension that recognises an enormous potential for development in the application of digital culture and in the prudent use of augmented reality. In the perspective of a design museum, it is therefore necessary to accompany each artefact / asset with a digital matrix that provides accurate information in relation to its critical interpretation. The exposure of an augmented object, in fact, allows to read better its use and social value along specific interpretative lines. This essay summarizes the study of a new type of archive – the animated archive of cultural materials – intended as a system of standard cataloguing of objects for a museum on design. Moreover, it is based on the critical comparison between the contribution of ludic humanism and the augmented narrative. This comparison is necessary because the rhetorical and design systems of the playful narrative offers interesting information for the realization of virtual – and non – exhibits, since the type of involvement and the environment required by the spectator is very similar; but above all because games are an important experimentation of interactive models of learning and cultural production.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The cultural heritage and the ways in which it is today studied and analysed as well as disseminated and enhanced for the purposes of conservation, requires high attention in the choice of 3D survey and modelling methods. This manuscript investigates the possible integrations and fusion of methods and data, among the vast availability of image and range based systems, especially in the sphere of low cost techniques, which in the context of heritage documentation makes the whole and complex process of conservation more sustainable. The investigation is carried out on a historical fountain that includes a quantity of cultural values and the need to document its context: its location in the historical Valentino of Turin park, its architectural values and the geometry of the complex typically related to the tastes of the late XIX century that consist in the extreme refinement of the statuary complexes and the underground portion with the technological equipment for the activation of the water games. Basically, it will be possible to appreciate solved issues and permanent criticalities derived from the integration of close range and UAV photogrammetry techniques in addition to the LiDAR survey, both classic from a fixed position, and in the portable scanner mode, based on SLAM technology.

Abstract
Lossy video stream compression is performed to reduce the bandwidth and storage requirements. Moreover also image compression is a need that arises in many circumstances.It is often the case that older archive are stored at low resolution and with a compression rate suitable for the technology available at the time the video was created. Unfortunately, lossy compression algorithms cause artifact. Such artifacts, usually damage higher frequency details also adding noise or novel image patterns. There are several issues with this phenomenon. Low-quality images can be less pleasant to persons. Object detectors algorithms may have their performance reduced. As a result, given a perturbed version of it, we aim at removing such artifacts to recover the original image. To obtain that, one should reverse the compression process through a complicated non-linear image transformation. We propose a deep neural network able to improve image quality. We show that this model can be optimized either traditionally, directly optimizing an image similarity loss (SSIM), or using a generative adversarial approach (GAN). Our restored images have more photorealistic details with respect to traditional image enhancement networks. Our training procedure based on sub-patches is novel. Moreover, we propose novel testing protocol to evaluate restored images quantitatively. Differently from previously proposed approaches we are able to remove artifacts generated at any quality by inferring the image quality directly from data. Human evaluation and quantitative experiments in object detection show that our GAN generates images with finer consistent details and these details make a difference both for machines and humans.
Interpretation of archaeological data based on direct and remote retrieval of information
Authors: Fiorillo F , Galli S , Rossi C 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This paper focuses on the archaeological and architectural analysis of the Late Roman settlement of Umm al-Dabadib (Kharga Oasis, Egypt). The available information on the archaeological remains of this site includes on-site hand-made sketches, photographs, 3D surveys. The final aim of this specific research is the interpretation and reconstruction of the historical context of this site by combining sources of different nature. This paper presents the methodology employed to elaborate the 3D data in order to achieve a digital restitution of the archaeological map of the entire settlement, which covers an area of about one hectare. The starting point was the elaboration of the close-range photogrammetric survey of the Fortified Settlement that allowed the creation of a 3D point cloud of the whole area, based on the elaboration of over 5,000 photographs, from which a complete and detailed metric model was derived. This 3D model played a key role to extract metric information and to reconstruct the geometrical structure of the settlement, but this result could only be achieved thanks to the successful combination of the digital data with the hand-made sketches and the pictures taken in situ in the recent past. This paper represents an outcome of the project LIFE (Living In a Fringe Environment), funded by the ERC CoGrant 681673.
Bacterial mineralization of calcium carbonate for conservation of stone artworks
Authors: Perito Brunella , Marvasi Massimiliano , Mastromei Giorgio 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Calcareous stones have been widely used as artwork and building materials by human civilizations, especially in the Mediterranean Basin. Calcareous stone deterioration is a consequence of the weathering action of physical, chemical and biological factors, which causes a progressive dissolution of the mineral matrix and an increase in porosity, resulting in the weakening of the structure. Recently, increased environmental pollution and global warming are threatening stone cultural heritage more than ever. Inorganic or organic products have been using to slow down monument deterioration, but their use presents several drawbacks. Bacterial Calcium Carbonate Mineralization is a natural process widespread among bacteria and occurring in different environments. In the last decades it has been proposed as a new and environmentally friendly tool in conservation of monumental and ornamental calcareous stones. The aim is to develop a bacteria-mediated mineralization treatment providing a coherent calcium carbonate layer on the surface of deteriorated stone, able to protect it against the intake of water and chemicals and to consolidate the inner weakening structure. The advantage is to obtain a mineral product similar to the calcareous stone substrate, mimicking the natural process responsible for stone formation. This review introduces the mechanisms of bacterial mineralization and describes the current strategies based on this process to promote stone reinforcement in field tests. They include applications of selected bacterial strains and/or culture media as well as selected components of bacterial cells on stone. The review finally provides perspectives based on recent advances.
Dynamical and structural analysis of a Bronze Age war chariot
Authors: Mazzù A , Uberti S , Bodini I 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The introduction of two-wheel chariots, pulled by horses, was a key technological innovation in the Bronze Age. Archaeological evidences, found in Northern Africa, Europe and Asia, allowed identifying various chariot typologies and understanding their main features. However, many questions about the function of single pieces and the behavior of the vehicles are still open. In a previous work, a war chariot wheel, found in northern Italy and known as the “Mercurago wheel”, was studied with an engineering approach. In this paper, the whole vehicle, to which the wheel was hypothesized to belong, was studied. In particular, two chariot typologies, differing mainly for the axle position, were analyzed. The stiffness of the various chariot parts were characterized by means of static finite element analyses. These data were subsequently used as input parameters in running multibody dynamics simulations. Finite element dynamical simulations were carried out as well. The analyses results allowed determining the crucial effect of some parts, particularly the cockpit floor, in favoring the passenger stability in dangerous conditions, such as bumping. The effect of the axle position on the passenger and wheel trajectory were evaluated as well.

Authors: Ebolese Donatella , Lo Brutto Mauro 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Archaeological documentation is a fundamental step for research and conservation planning phases. Nowadays traditional recording is always supported by geomatics technologies which offer important support to the growth of archaeological study. The integration of sensors and methodologies seems to give the best results, in terms of time, costs and accuracy of products. In particular, the combination of Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) can help the documentation of complex sites and the production of 3D and 2D products for different purposes. The paper focuses on the integration of TLS and UAV methodologies to record the thermal baths of the Roman Domus in the archaeological Park of Lylibaeum (Marsala, Italy). The combination of range and image data are useful to achieve a complete 3D model and a high-resolution orthophoto of the site, in order to provide accurate and complete documentation for archaeological research and conservative project.

A conceptual framework on the integration of solar energy systems in heritage sites and buildings
Authors: Lucchi E , Polo Lopez C S , Franco G 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The integration between solar energy systems and building components is highly critical in sensitive heritage contexts. On the one hand there is the need for finding a balance between the preservation of the aesthetic appearance and the historical values, but on the other hand, finding the space where to effectively integrate the systems might be quite challenging. The solar systems can be divided in photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal (ST) systems. Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) and Building Integrated Solar Thermal (BIST) are PV or ST panels integrated into the building envelope, combining the energy generation with other functions, such as noise, weather protection, thermal insulation, sun shadow, and other aspects. Nowadays, the dynamism of the market allows to design highly compatible products which look like traditional architecture materials. This situation fosters the integration of these products in the BIPV and BIST systems within the heritage sites, especially thanks to the use of advanced customisation processes, special and low-reflecting glasses, and innovative cost-competitive coatings. There is a limited number of studies on the application of these technologies in heritage contexts, due to the presence of architectonic, conservative, and cultural barriers. This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive review of the available literature on the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) in heritage sites and buildings, which would foster the preservation of their cultural and natural values as well as reducing primary energy consumption, increasing comfort levels, minimizing environmental impacts, and improving technical quality and economical outlays. A common framework will thus defined to support restorers, historic conservators, and energy experts and to facilitate the diffusion and application of RES in heritage contexts. This conceptual framework will provide industries and academics with operative strategies and will encourage their diffusion and application in sensible contexts.

Authors: Zemenkova M Yu , Zemenkov Yu D , Gladenko A A , Chizhevskaya E L 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The paper considers the methodological aspects of the analysis of technical risk based on real data on the reliability of objects. Today, there is a problem of assessing the probability of technological events of various types based on statistical data of events at various facilities; however, the current state of automatic control systems for production processes allows preventing an accident, transferring it to the category of incidents. In this case, there is a real distortion of information on statistics of dangerous situations. In modern control systems, information for forecasting and preventing accidents is the most valuable. The paper presents a systematic approach to the creation of new generation technical risk management systems.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The use of mechanical pressure gauges as pressure measuring devices is regulated by standard documentation. Also, manometric tubular springs – the sensitive elements of pressure gauges are used in various technology fields. Thus, the use of MTS in agricultural machinery allows reducing the traction resistance of tillage machines due to the effect of vibration when interacting with the soil, as well as improving the quality of the soil treatment process by adjusting the stiffness of the rack. This paper presents the results of calculating the stresses and deformations of the ripper shank structure, made in the form of a flexible tubular element when loaded with internal pressure and external force. The active development of the oil and gas industry is currently directed towards the remote territories of the Yamal peninsula and the territories of the Far East, which are characterized by complex natural and climatic conditions of construction. In this regard, it is necessary to develop new approaches and methods of construction in permafrost conditions. The paper presents the results of calculating the stresses and deformations of the structure of the ripper shank, made in the form of a flexible tubular element under loading by internal pressure and external force. The finite element method implemented in the “ANSYS” program was used for research.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The paper considers a possible solution to the problem of optimizing the location of a well’s production collecting site at an oil field. Depending on the location of the collecting site, the length of the pipelines going from the well clusters changes. Minimizing the total length of the oil collecting pipelines network will lead to lower capital costs for the construction of a well’s production collection system.

Published: November 2020

Abstract
The dynamics of energy consumption in the world market is analyzed. The natural gas demand growth forecast is provided. Gas will be the most crucial energy source in the next 30 years which can be considered to be the “era of gas”. It is shown that natural gas is a promising source of energy and raw materials of petrochemical chemistry. Unlike oil and coal, gas will have strengthened its position by increasing its share in the total balance of primary energy carriers from 22 to 24-26% by 2035. By the middle of the 21st century, its share will have been 25 -27% in the world and 56% in Russia. The use of natural and associated petroleum gas in Russia is compared with global trends. In Russia, the use of useful gas components does not meet potential capabilities of the raw material base and does not comply with the world practice. The rational use of hydrocarbons can be organized through the cooperation of gas processing. The backlog of Russian gas processing is described. Currently, global gas processing is in the GTL era. In order to increase the profitability of producing synthetic liquid hydrocarbons, a combination of existing and GTL enterprises is promising. Developments of Russian scientists and world experience allow us to create GTL-production in almost all developed regions of Russia. The conclusion about the possibility and necessity to develop GTL-production is drawn.
Experience in developing oil and gas deposits with horizontal wells located near the gas processing plant
Authors: Vaganov E V , Tomskaya V F , Krasnov I I , Alsheikhly M J Z 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
In this work, four wells were analyzed at the Srednebotuobinskoye oil, gas and condensate field located in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Production of oil reserves is complicated by the problem of gas breakthrough from the gas cap into the oil area of the reservoir, which leads to gasification of production wells up to their full shutdown. The field is characterized by the presence of a thin oil rim. That is why there is an urgent need to develop innovative technologies capable of ensuring higher oil recovery rates. The result of the conducted analysis is the object of implementation of the research results of this work.

Investigating the mechanisms of shape distortion of the heat-affected region during electric-arc welding of oilfield pipelines
Authors: Khabibullin M Ya , Suleimanov R I 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
The article studies the issue of the influence of the most encountered in practice defects of welded joints of a one-piece joint, formed in the process of applying a weld when connecting oilfield pipelines to a joint by electric arc manual welding, on the strength characteristics of a welded joint by scrutinizing the condition of the pipe material close to the heat-affected zone. As a test sample, a butt welded joint with obvious defects was used. The geometric parameters of the welded joint were measured using standard means and the hardness of the heat-affected zone was determined by the Rockwell method in certain areas with justification of the welding process. The reason for softening is established. The change in the geometry of the heat-affected area is due to the accumulation of filler material during its melting on one side of the weld with a decrease in welding speed. Recommendations are given for the prevention of the destruction of welded structures and the occurrence of emergency situations in oilfield pipelines.
