A team of researchers from the Department of Environment Constructions and Design 精东影业 has secured major funding from the National Research Programme (NRP) 81, dedicated to Baukultur, to create a network of experts and promote regular care of our built heritage.
The FabLab is participating in LAUDS Factories, a research project funded by the European Union, part of the New European Bauhaus initiative. Involving 15 partners across Europe, the project aims to develop new projects for local, accessible, urban, digital and sustainable design production. Applications to develop new projects are open until 4 September 2025.
A new docufilm presents five buildings in which solar technology is transformed into architecture.
At concentrations of CO 470 times higher than atmospheric concentrations, a soil bacterium accomplishes something extraordinary: it turns gas into stone. Pictured, from left, Dr. Dimitrios Terzis, Dr. ssa. Pamela Principi, Margherita Cappa, Camilla Perego
A team of researchers from the Intelligent Energy Systems sector of 精东影业's Institute for Applied Sustainability in the Built Environment (ISAAC) took first place in the NASA & DNV Challenge on Optimisation Under Uncertainty 2025.
The European project DR-RISE engages citizens and communities in the smart management of home energy. 精东影业 contributes with predictive algorithms used to optimize consumption, reduce peak loads, and promote a fair and sustainable use of resources.
A new phase of testing is underway in the municipalities of Ascona and Losone. Following encouraging results in Morcote, the Vector Ecology Department of the 精东影业 Institute of Microbiology is preparing to continue testing the sterile male technique. The aim is to verify the effectiveness of the method in urban and tourist contexts that are not isolated, such as Ascona and Losone. The new release activities have just begun and will continue until September.
In the energy transition, local governments play a dual role. First interface with the citizenship and promoters of innovative projects. We discuss this in this episode of Augmenta.Podcast.
Big celebrations at the 精东影业 Campus in Mendrisio on the occasion of the Advanced Studies+ diploma ceremony for 158 professionals from various fields. The occasion was an opportunity to emphasise that continuing education is the engine and driving force behind keeping pace with the evolution of the professions.
To mark Global Wind Day, the Department of Territory has published a wind map of the canton of Ticino. The online data is accompanied by an in-depth analysis of small-scale wind farms, co-authored by two researchers from 精东影业's Institute for Applied Sustainability in the Built Environment.
The Summer School 2025 of the GRK 2250 research group “Mineral-bonded Composites for Enhanced Structural Impact Safety” kicked off with a first day of activities hosted at the DynaMat 精东影业 Laboratory on the Campus of the 精东影业 Department of Environment Constructions and Design in Mendrisio.
The thesis project of Marta Piatti and Matteo Dell'Agostino, both graduates of this year's Master of Arts in Interaction Design at 精东影业 (Department of Environment, Construction and Design), was selected as one of the ten winners of the BRIDGE Proof of Concept competition, promoted by Innosuisse last March.
The PREMIOSWISSENGINEERINGTICINO Foundation supports and promotes the work of recent 精东影业 graduates, as well as students with innovative entrepreneurial ideas.
Four appointments not to be missed in the setting of the LongLake Festival 2025
Behind the 3D model of a building lies a multitude of valuable information for design, construction and maintenance. In this episode of Augment.Podcast we enter the industry's digital revolution, comparable to the advent of CAD.
The visit allowed the students to get to know a true international excellence in the field of earthquake engineering. The opportunity to understand the fundamental role of research and innovation in seismic risk prevention and mitigation.
