Thanks to the growing adoption and implementation of information and communication technologies (ICT) and monitoring infrastructures, a large amount of data from different acquisition sources relating to energy performance and quality conditions of both internal and external environment they are becoming more and more available and accessible.
Consequently, the civil and acoustic sector in the last decade has also proved to be a field of significant interest for the application of big data analytics techniques in order to generate added value from the massive and detailed collection of data. In this context, the marked heterogeneity, complexity and temporal dependence of the acquired data make the application of methods related to artificial intelligence a promising opportunity for knowledge extraction aimed at improving energy management processes and the quality of the built environment. This webinar will discuss some of the main solutions and perspectives offered by big data and artificial intelligence in the energy and acoustic fields.
In the energy field, we will discuss applications related to the forecasting of energy demand and the process of automatic detection and diagnostics of energy anomalies or system component failures, as tools to improve the energy performance of buildings through optimal management in operation. In the acoustic field, applications related to the creation of a large-scale dynamic acoustic mapping system will be discussed to improve and simplify the monitoring and environmental management of the territory in urban areas. This is done through a limited number of permanent acoustic monitoring sensors, distributed throughout the territory, each representative of a group of roads with similar traffic characteristics. The acoustic data collected in this way is used to update the dynamic acoustic map in real time, using a dedicated algorithm.

The redevelopment of contemporary buildings typically involves aspects related to energy efficiency and acoustic comfort in indoor environments. When intervening on the envelope or on the internal partitions of a building for the purpose of improving energy and acoustic requirements, one may run into problems concerning urban planning, typological, dimensional or structural constraints that can sometimes make it difficult to carry out the interventions necessary to guarantee compliance with legal limits or good executive practices. To all this is added the economic feasibility of the intervention, to be evaluated along the life cycle of the building. The national regulatory and legislative framework, relating to interventions to improve energy and acoustic requirements, is relatively complex and articulated and often interventions concern only one of the two aspects: either acoustic or energy. On the other hand, conscious design can, often with minimal increases in cost and executive complexity, lead to the simultaneous satisfaction of energy and acoustic improvement requirements. The seminar will briefly illustrate the most recent developments in the national regulatory and legislative framework and executive techniques and space will be given to questions from the participants.

The EU objectives of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting energy efficiency on the one hand and the need to live and work in comfortable environments on the other have led in recent years to a growing spread of cogeneration and refrigeration and air conditioning systems, which in anthropized contexts are the cause of significant noise disturbance. In this webinar plant engineers and technicians competent in acoustics will discuss, touching both the design and regulatory aspects, on the theme of noise from energy systems, also providing methodological indications on its measurement and evaluation.

La qualità dell’ambiente interno, che è l’insieme di comfort acustico, termico e visivo e di qualità dell’aria, è uno degli aspetti fondamentali nella progettazione sostenibile degli edifici. La sua importanza è sancita dalla norma UNI EN 16798-1. Gli aspetti termici di questa norma derivano dalla UNI EN ISO 7730 che, essendo richiamata dai CAM Edilizia del 2017, risulta cogente nella progettazione degli edifici della pubblica amministrazione. Gli stessi CAM richiamano la UNI 11532, che nella parte 2 disciplina gli aspetti di comfort acustico per le scuole e nelle successive parti 3 e 4 si occuperà di uffici e ospedali. In questo webinar sarà presentato un inquadramento generale sulla nuova normativa per quello che riguarda la relazione tra comfort termico e acustico con focus sulla progettazione degli impianti di climatizzazione. In particolare, dal punto di vista acustico si tratterà il tema dei requisiti che disciplinano il rumore degli impianti a funzionamento continuo e discontinuo proveniente da ambienti limitrofi e dall’ambiente oggetto di analisi. Saranno presentati esempi che evidenziano problematiche di progettazione e verifica.

Sono previsti CFP per architetti, ingegneri e periti industriali.

The quality of the indoor environment, which is the combination of acoustic, thermal and visual comfort and air quality, is one of the fundamental aspects in the sustainable design of buildings. Its importance is enshrined in the UNI EN 16798-1 standard. The thermal aspects of this standard derive from UNI EN ISO 7730 which, being referred to by the CAM Building of 2017, is mandatory in the design of public administration buildings. The CAMs themselves refer to UNI 11532, which in part 2 regulates the aspects of acoustic comfort for schools and in the subsequent parts 3 and 4 will deal with offices and hospitals. In this webinar, a general overview of the new legislation will be presented regarding the relationship between thermal and acoustic comfort with a focus on the design of air conditioning systems. In particular, from the acoustic point of view, the issue of the requirements governing the noise of continuous and discontinuous systems coming from neighboring environments and from the environment under analysis will be dealt with. Examples will be presented highlighting design and verification issues.

CFPs are provided for architects, engineers and industrial experts.
