A Seismic Network Reliability Evaluation on a GIS Environment – a Case Study on Catania Province A seismic network reliability evaluation on a GIS environment – a case study on Catania province S. Cafiso, A. Condorelli, G. Cutrona & G. Mussumeci Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Catania, Viale Andrea Doria, 6, 95125 Catania, Italy Abstract Human society is nowadays strongly dependent on an articulated and complex network of road infrastructures. Essential services for current users as well as for every kind of human activity have been entrusted to this network that takes the name of “lifeline”. Network Reliability Analysis mainly measures network performance related to its capability to oppose or react against the failure of single elements. When a catastrophic event strikes a wide area, it is necessary that the infrastructure system is designed with a high redundancy, to have effective alternatives in choosing a route to maintain network function. However, if in mathematical analysis of a simple structure, a redundancy rate could clearly be defined, it would not be sufficient to quantify the redundancy effect in a more complex and real-life structure such as a road network. In this paper, we propose a GIS (Geographic Information System) based methodology to study the road Network effectiveness after a seismic event. The method is based on the concepts of Encountered Reliability and Terminal Reliability and it has been applied to the Catania Province area. The results show which towns and links are in the most critical condition and must be considered for road planning and management prioritization. Keywords: road network, lifelines reliability, seismic risk, GIS, bridge vulnerability. Risk Analysis IV, C. A. Brebbia (Editor) © 2004 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISBN 1-85312-736-1 132 Risk Analysis IV 1 Reliability and risk of lifelines network The analysis of the effects induced by calamities on the transport system clearly shows how the destruction or severe damage of even one element has serious consequences for all the territory, such as the impossibility to access the urban network, interruptions or overloading of part of the transport system or on other means of transport, delay in emergency services arriving at the scene of the calamity, etc. The examination of the transport system and its functionality is thus very important for the wider evaluation of territorial risk. The transport network is affected by two different phenomena that can modify its reliability: 1) Variation in what is offered for transportation; 2) Variation in the demand on the transport services. In the case of damage produced by seismic events it is obvious that the effects of the interruption of the local network and the consequence reduction in what remains available profoundly affect the overall performance of the system (increase in travel time, distance and costs). Furthermore, the effects of this damage induce the users to change their behavior which then changes the demand on the system. The effects of the damage to the system can be reduced by the capacity of the users to adapt to the new circumstances. This means that the user should have a high degree of information so as to be able to awarely decide beforehand from among the available options. On the other hand, if there is a low degree of available information the only option is that of changing route when an interruption is encountered, when the user is already involved in the congestion of the system [1]. The reduction of the risk on the transport network has generally been made by the structural improvement of some of its components, but other aspects should also be taken into consideration such as: - The improvement of the global configuration of the network; - The construction of alternative infrastructures that can guarantee the redundancy of the system; - The monitoring of critical components; - The carrying out of regular preventative maintenance; - The identification of the priority for repair of the damaged components. Operations of this type can be carried out using the methodologies of analysis for reliability engineering, applied to the road network and to the relative traffic flow both in normal conditions and in the case of an emergency [2]. Reliability can be defined as the “the probability of a device performing its purpose adequately for the period of time intended under the operating conditions encountered” (Wakabayashi and Idia, 1992 [3]), accepting that this is with the various meanings of the term “correctly” assumed by the different users. A road network, in particular, will be reliable if “…. provides a safe and not fluctuating service for the traffic and offers the users alternative routes, even when some parts of the system are not available due to road accidents, Risk Analysis IV, C. A. Brebbia (Editor) © 2004 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISBN 1-85312-736-1 Risk Analysis IV 133 maintenance or natural disasters”. In some cases, however, it could be of primary importance that the journey finishes in a determined period of time, while in other cases it is more important to evaluate if there are interruptions along the route. With this aim in mind there are two concepts of reliability. Terminal reliability is “the probability that nodes are connected, i.e. it is possible to reach the destination” and this is surely the parameter that is easier to evaluate. With this approach reliability assumes the value of one or zero, in relationship to the probability that it is possible or not to reach the destination by any route, but it is not possible to describe the situations in which the system works in intermediate conditions within the range 0-1. The encountered reliability can be defined as “the probability of not encountering a link degradation on the path with least (expected) cost”. Another concept that is complimentary that will be used in the proposed methodological approach is the reliability of the time and cost of the journey, commonly defined as “the probability that a trip can be successfully finished within a specified time interval”. In parallel to the concepts of reliability it is indispensable to address the problems linked to the network risk. It should be remembered that the risk, following an approach that has been well consolidated in literature, can be seen as the product of three independent factors: - hazard, linked to the probability that in a certain place there will be an event of a certain intensity with a given return time; - exposure, given by the number of people (and goods) that can be damaged by the event; - vulnerability, that defines the propensity of the infrastructural element that can undergo damage during the event [4,5]. 2 Study area and the road lifeline network The province of Catania has an area of about 3,552 Km2 with a population of 1,054,778 inhabitants, in which there are 58 towns. Among these the most important is the province capital (Catania), with 313,110 inhabitants. There are also five urban centres with a population of more than 30,000 inhabitants (Acireale, Paternò, Misterbianco, Caltagirone, and Adrano). A value was assigned to each city for its “direct exposure ” equal to the number of inhabitants in the towns multiplied by the “index for seismic risk” defined in Italy proportionally to the values of the expected losses and with a value varying between about 0 and 0.8 [6]. The GIS, developed using Arcview®, contains all the data necessary for the analysis of risk and emergency management, organized in shape-files and Relational data bases [7]. In particular, the shape-file relative to the roads present in the province of Catania (classified as urban, communal, provincial, state and motorways) and the segmentation of the network and stretches allow the application of the functionality of the Network Analyst®. This was carried out integrating the road network Tele Atlas® with the information obtained from maps and recent orthophotographs, providing all the Risk Analysis IV, C. A. Brebbia (Editor) © 2004 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISBN 1-85312-736-1 134 Risk Analysis IV information requested by the detailed analysis: toponymy, length of the branch, width of the carriage ways, number of carriage ways, direction, speed limits, functional classification of the road stretch, eventual presence of restrictions for some types of traffic, eventual need to pay a transit toll, belonging to the lifeline network or not and the time necessary to complete the route at the design speed. All the bridges and viaducts present on the network were positioned within the GIS with the help of provincial maps with a scale of 1:10,000. Based on this information all the routes that could be used by emergency services were identified. For the definition of these routes, which provide communication for all the 58 towns of the Province, three hypotheses of traffic accessibility were considered, having identified in the areas of Messina, Palermo and Ragusa/Gela the possible origins (O) for emergency services [8]. The scheme produced allowed the determination of the network of lifelines of the province of Catania, on which to analyze risk and reliability (Figure 1).

The shortest route between each origin and each of the 58 towns of the province was calculated by ArcView®, both in terms of distance and time needed to cover the route.

Abstract Background. Spatial epidemiology can give important clues on the etiology of a disease. Previously, we described a higher incidence of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in the eastern flank of the Mount Etna when compared to the western one and intake of volcanogenic metals was proposed as a possible explanation. Here we further investigated the spatial distribution of ALS cases in the Mount Etna region. Methods. ALS cases in the residents of the province of Catania who had experienced the onset of symptoms during the 2005-2015 period were included.

  • After Thirty Years Photovoltaic Power at Adrano Ready to Start Again
    ENEL GREEN POWER: AFTER THIRTY YEARS PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER AT ADRANO READY TO START AGAIN • The new plant will rise in the Sicilian site where thirty years ago the first concentrating solar plant in the world was built • With an installed capacity of 9 MW, it will be able to generate more than 14 million kilowatt hours annually. Rome, January 27th, 2011 - The construction of a new Enel Green Power photovoltaic power plant at Adrano in the province of Catania is getting under way. It will rise in the site where in 1981 Enel built the first concentrating solar plant in the world. The new Enel Green Power plant, with an installed capacity of 9 MW, will be able to generate more than 14 million kWh a year – equal to the consumption of more than 5,000 households – thus avoiding the emission of about 10,000 tonnes of CO2 a year. The Adrano plant, which has received the go-ahead from the Region of Sicily, will rise on the same site where, in 1981, Eurelios was built: the first solar power plant in the world to supply the grid with electricity generated by the sun. At that time, the Adrano area was selected because it was deemed the sunniest in Europe, and the concentrating solar tower plant, with a mirror array of more than 7,800 square metres, was able to generate 1 MW. The main components of the historic Eurelios solar power plant, which will be decommissioned in the initial stages of construction, will be sent to MUSIL, the Museum of Industry and Work in Brescia.

  • Children in Roof Tiles
    Medicina Historica 2021; Vol. 5, N. 1: e2021006 © Mattioli 1885 Original articles: paleopathology Children in roof tiles: a case study from medieval Paternò (Sicily) Alessandra Morrone1, Dario Piombino-Mascali2, Maria Randazzo3, Giulia Raimondi4, Laura Maniscalco5 1Department of Archaeology, Institute of History and Archaeology, University of Tartu, Tartu Estonia; 2Department of Anato- my, Histology and Anthropology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Vilnius University, Vilnius Lithuania; 3Ministry of Educa- tion, University and Research, Adrano, Italy; 4Department of Humanities, University of Catania, Catania Italy; 5Superintend- ence for the Cultural and Environmental Heritage of Catania, Catania Italy Abstract. The study of child fictile burials provides a chance to understand the role and treatment of children within past societies, and this typology of burial customs has been rarely encountered in medieval Sicilian fu- nerary contexts. This paper investigates three unusual child burials within roof tiles discovered in the cemetery of Santa Maria della Valle di Josaphat at Paternò (Eastern Sicily), dating from the XIV century AD. A multi- disciplinary approach was adopted, considering the archaeological, bioanthropological and paleopathological aspects of the burials, thus providing a critical evaluation in the light of the historical and archaeological con- texts. Two of these three individuals were well-preserved enough to allow a thorough macroscopic investiga- tion. The results of the bioarchaeological analyses indicated that they were around 2-3 years of age at death, representing striking examples of non-perinatal individuals recovered from fictile artefacts in Italian funerary contexts. In one of the two subjects, the paleopathological study allowed for the identification of skeletal changes associated with systemic metabolic disease.

A case study in the Etna area Leonardo Mercatanti* and Gaetano Sabato* Department of Cultures and Societies, University of Palermo, Italy * Correspondence: Email: [email protected]; [email protected]. Abstract: On December 24, 2018, the Etna volcano has recorded a significant eruption. Linked to this phenomenon, after a seismic swarm of 72 shocks, a 4.8-magnitude earthquake struck a large area North of Catania city, on the Eastern coast of Sicily. Six villages reported 28 injured people and damages to the building. According to seismologists the earthquake had an unusual level of magnitude. Yet, despite the real danger of this event, many people who live around the volcano, in one of the most densely populated areas of Sicily, perceived these facts in an ambivalent way. Indeed, their lives continued as before even in awareness of the natural hazard, while several media presented the situation as really dangerous in a worried tone. This paper, part of a wider research still in progress, aims to analyse the perception of the risk towards the biggest and highest volcano of Europe by the inhabitants of some villages that rise around the Etna. Based on a previous research conducted in 2013 in the same area, this study compares the ways in which this recent earthquake was perceived by some residents in the area and the ways in which some online newspaper narrated the event.
