Environmental engineering

Optimal planning and operation of transmission and distribution networks with a high share of RES and EV. In this part, the activities are related to:

The members of LaTEC (Laboratory of Thermo-fluid dynamics, Energy, and HVAC systems) of the Engineering Department at the Università degli Studi di Napoli "Parthenope" have international scientific experience in the fields of computational thermo-fluid dynamics, fuel cells, geothermal energy conversion, energy planning, polygeneration systems, renewable energy sources, thermoeconomic analysis of energy systems and biomedical engineering.

The group is dedicated to the following research activities:

The main research interests are in the field of signal and image processing, with particular reference to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and microwave remote sensing.

Her most significant scientific contributions are the following:

-    development of radar imaging techniques based on one bit coding of the received signal, that can be implemented for real-time processing on simple low cost architectures;

-    development of statistical techniques for moving target detection using SAR systems

M. Lega is Professor at Dept. of Engineering - Univ. of Naples Parthenope.

The very first salient stages of technical/scientific educational training of M. Lega are summarized below: Master Degree in aerospace engineering, qualification to the profession of engineer, Ph.D in Aerospace Engineering, research grant/post-doc. The post-graduate research /training activity (Post-Doc fellows and research fellows) was spent in national and international context at prestigious universities and research institutions.

Developing sustainable resource exploitation

Development and technological improvement of marine renewable energy

Improve knowledge on the processes that drive the dynamics and evolution of marine and coastal systems, aimed at a proper use and management of these environments 

Understanding oceans dynamics

Coastal and ocean observations and modelling

CIMA is a multidisciplinary centre of excellence of marine and environmental research. CIMA engages with society to implement important decisions about Blue and Green Growth at the national and international level, and thus contribute to the delivery of Sustainable Development Goals. The mission of CIMA is to deepen scientific knowledge of marine and environmental systems, to support and encourage innovation, and to provide training. CIMA integrates two main research areas: Ocean and Coastal Dynamics and Environmental Systems and Resources.
