MANNERS MAKYTH MODELLERS - A FLUID DYNAMICIST VIEWPOINT

Professor Alfredo Soldati , Rettore del CISM
TU Vienna, Austria

A model serves as the cornerstone in our efforts to comprehend, interpret, and forecast reality. Drawing inspiration from the realm of fine arts, we will embark on a journey traversing from foundational principles to construct a model addressing a pertinent physical problem, with a particular focus on the physics and engineering aspects relevant to contemporary environmental challenges.

Venerdì 31 maggio 2024, ore 11.00 - 12.00

WHY THINGS BREAK - A JOURNEY IN FRACTURE MECHANICS

Professor Laura De Lorenzis
Dept. of Mechanical and Process Engineering Institute of Mechanical Systems
ETH Zurich, Switzerland

This lecture will offer a glimpse into the science behind why things break and how we can prevent it, or purposefully induce it, in engineering such as in everyday life. We will review fundamental insights from the past and highlight open issues for the future, along with old and new methods for scientific investigation in this fascinating field.

Giovedì 4 luglio 2024, ore 18.00 - 19.00

THINK DIFFERENT:
HOW ENGINEERS SHAPE MODERN CARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE

Professor Javier Bermejo
Chair Department of Cardiology Hospital General Universitario, Madrid, Spain

Cardiovascular disease are the leading cause of death worldwide. However, remarkably, most impact on patient outcome in cardiovascular medicine is not related to particular pharmaco- logical interventions. Instead, devices from the sphyngomanometer, cardiovascular imaging, the extracorporeal pump, pacemakers, valvular prosthesis, artificial hearts are examples of technological achievements that have become standard of care. In the last few years, the ir- ruption of data science, computation models and artificial intelligence has opened a completely unknown scenario for all artistic and scientific disciplines. This lecture will provide a personal vision on how to these new tools open unique opportunities for future scientists, engineers and physicians who share a common goal of improving cardiovascular care.
