From point cloud data to structural modelling: the case study of the Tusk at Spynie Palace, Scotland (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marinelli, A., & Kumari, M. (2023, February). From point cloud data to structural modelling: the case study of the Tusk at Spynie Palace, Scotland. Presented at 27th International Conference on Fracture and Structural Integrity (IGF27), Rome, Italy

The development of digital technologies has already supported the production of accurate representations of structures, with applications in conservation, monitoring and Building Information Modelling projects. The exploitability of their outputs rem... Read More about From point cloud data to structural modelling: the case study of the Tusk at Spynie Palace, Scotland.

Piano teachers’ perspectives on educational and professional aspects of instrumental graded exams in the United Kingdom (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marinelli, A., & Moir, Z. (2022, September). Piano teachers’ perspectives on educational and professional aspects of instrumental graded exams in the United Kingdom. Presented at 44th International Conference of the European Piano Teachers Association (EPTA), Guimaraes, Portugal

Formal assessments in instrumental music education are much more than a snapshot-like summary of an achievement, although rarely considered within the entirety of their professional, social, economic and institutional context. Given the size of the m... Read More about Piano teachers’ perspectives on educational and professional aspects of instrumental graded exams in the United Kingdom.

Optimizing strengthening interventions on historic masonry walls: an experimental study (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marinelli, A., Santa, S., Spiliopoulos, A., & Dasiou, M. E. (2019, June). Optimizing strengthening interventions on historic masonry walls: an experimental study. Presented at 25th International Conference on Fracture and Structural Integrity, Catania, Italy

Scotland's historic environment is an essential part of the country's cultural background and its economy. T he country has a long history of building with stone and among the richest legacies of traditional and historic buildings in the United Kingd...

Experimental assessment of stiffness and damping in rubber-sand mixtures at various strain levels (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bernal-Sanchez, J., Mcdougall, J., Barreto, D., Marinelli, A., Dimitriadi, V., Anbazhagan, P., & Miranda, M. (2019, June). Experimental assessment of stiffness and damping in rubber-sand mixtures at various strain levels. Presented at 7th International Conference on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering, Rome

The dynamic properties of shredded rubber-soil mixtures (ShRm), comprising a sub-rounded quartz sand combined with small rubber shreds at 0, 10, 20, 30% by mass, were investigated. Testing ranged from small strain, in resonant column apparatus, to la... Read More about Experimental assessment of stiffness and damping in rubber-sand mixtures at various strain levels.

Dynamic behaviour of shredded rubber soil mixtures (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bernal-Sanchez, J., McDougall, J., Barreto Gonzalez, D., Miranda, M., & Marinelli, A. (2018, June). Dynamic behaviour of shredded rubber soil mixtures. Presented at 16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering, Thessaloniki

Residential buildings in high population density areas are seismically vulnerable to the action of major seismic events. The high cost and technical difficulties related to the use of advanced seismic isolations systems precludes its installation to...

A combined experimental and numerical study of the pull-out mechanism of threaded titanium bars embedded in marble blocks (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kourkoulis, S. K., Marinelli, A., & Dakanali, I. (2016, June). A combined experimental and numerical study of the pull-out mechanism of threaded titanium bars embedded in marble blocks. Presented at ECCOMAS congress 2016: VII European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering, Crete Island, Greece

The present study describes the first stage of an ongoing research project aiming to investigate the failure mechanisms activated when reinforcing bars are pulled-out from the body of the reinforced element. Attention is given to the progressive fail... Read More about A combined experimental and numerical study of the pull-out mechanism of threaded titanium bars embedded in marble blocks.
