Author Information

Prof. Graziano Salvalai, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of Architectural Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. His research interests focus on innovative construction techniques and in their envelope performance evaluation through energy simulation tools and experimental analysis. He is local coordinator of four Horizon 2020 project, two competitive researches (PRIN) funded by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research and scientific responsible of several research works in the field on energy efficient technologies for buildings. He is the head of the Building Energy Efficient Pilot facility (BEEpilot) that provides a combination of multiscale modelling, testing and numerical analysis for multi-layer dry nZEB Enabler Envelope Solutions (nEES), to develop innovative, pioneering and optimized technology for Zero-emission Buildings. He is author of 3 books and 55 Scopus ranked papers. Juan Diego Blanco Cadena, Ph.D., is Post-doc Research Associate at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. His previous research works have focused on building materials characterization, building performance simulation and monitoring analysis, building operational phase boosted with digital and sensing technologies, methods and strategies to integrate personalized visual comfort and thermal comfort monitoring into building management systems, and outdoor thermal comfort and associated health risks. Prof. Enrico Quagliarini, full professor of Architectural Engineering, is the Head of the Department of Construction and Civil Engineering and Architecture at the Università Politecnica delle Marche at Ancona (Italy). His research interests focus on the conservation and retrofitting of historic constructions and now mainly deal with the behavioural-based assessment of existing built environments for risk reduction and evacuation strategies in single and multi-hazard events such as slow onset and sudden onset disasters. Reviewer for the most important international journals on these topics, on which he attended over 50 invited lectures in National and International events. He is author of more than 310 international and national scientific papers, including 4 books, and 1 patent. He is also principal investigator/research staff member of several funded National and European competitive research projects. Gabriele Bernardini is Researcher and Lecturer at Università Politecnica delle Marche at Ancona, Italy. He investigates developing tools for including the users’ factors in building design, operation, and maintenance. His activity is widely focused on users’ safety in the built environment, by involving the building, the open space, and the urban scale. He has developed methods for the analysis of users’ exposure behaviours in case of different emergencies, simulation models and software for evacuation analyses, and innovative systems for increasing users' awareness before disasters.
