Descrizione dell'insegnamento

Il programma dell'insegnamento è provvisorio e potrebbe subire delle modifiche

Basic principles of Physics and Chemistry.

Diagnostic techniques used to characterize the material components of historically relevant artifacts and the processes that rule the degradation of the materials will be systematically analysed and explained. In particular, not destructive spectroscopic methodologies will be prosed to the students.

During the course, the students will be involved in the study of scientific papers that will be critically analyzed highlighting strength and weakness of the proposed research in order to educate the student to face complex problems and to solve them with powerful analytical methods.

The goal is to provide an adequate knowledge, especially on the structure-property correlation of materials of interest for Archaeological Heritage and consequently on the planning of future consolidation interventions.

The course aims to give to the students the tools to examinate and to comment independently a scientific text and to present the fundamental themes in a clear and precise. The study of scientific papers will increase the ability to critically analyze the texts, identifying the most relevant topics.

Frontal lessons will be given. Reports will be given to the students at the end of each main topic.

Oral tests will be used to evaluate if the students reached the course's objectives.

During the course, concepts of Physical Chemistry will be proposed and particular attention will paid towards the study of the degradation processes that affect the historical artifacts and monuments.

 

Possible strategies to prevent the effects of external agents on different materials will be examined and the analytical techniques used to characterize them will be considered. Furthermore, chemical physical approaches applied to real cases will be discussed and possible improvements of the adopted strategies will be debated with the students.
