DIgital twin and Modern HEritage modelliNg towards Sustainable InfOrmed maNagement - DIMHENSION

PRIN 2022 Guardigli

Abstract

The project aims to exploit the potential of the Digital Twin, digital modeling, and Mixed Reality to develop an innovative operational protocol that is economically, socially, and technically sustainable for the computerized management of the twentieth-century architectural heritage. The research is directed at the production of the Italian Modern, whose facade was assumed to be a characterizing element with diffuse deterioration. The application of digital technologies in these fields offers opportunities that are not yet organized in a scientific and integrated methodology such as the one proposed. The operational protocol improves the essentially empirical criteria that are commonly applied to the fruition of the cultural assets for their conservation – through recovery, adaptation/improvement, or maintenance –, contributing to efficiency and economic-social sustainability, as well as supporting: - The construction of the “Heritage BIM” (HBIM) model, which addresses its manifest problems; - The definition of an informed and searchable database of case studies, also usable in Mixed Reality, integrated with the HBIR (R= Repository) Repertoire through ad hoc applications; - The implementation of the Digital Twin, its one-to-one connection with the Real Twin and the facilitations in decision-making processes for the purposes of use, maintenance and protection; - The identification of directions for technical operations, through multi-objective optimization methods; - The identification of three paradigmatic case studies allows for the methodological definition and validation of the protocol aimed at conservation actions.
