The Impact of ESG Percepition on University

During the last two decades, sustainability issues, such as climate change, depletion of natural resources, or bad working conditions, gained considerable attention in the literature. Investors, consumers, suppliers, employees, public powers, and non-governmental organisations are increasingly requiring the development and implementation of sustainable practices, considering that sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors became drivers able to affect companies’ per...

Magnetic induction tomography via the monotonicity principle

This contribution is focused on the nonlinear and ill-posed problem of reconstructing the electrical conductivity starting from the free response of a conductor in the magneto-quasi-stationary (MQS) limit. In this framework, a key role is played by the Monotonicity Principle, that is a monotone relation connecting the unknown material property to the (measured) free-response. The Monotonicity Principle is relevant to develop noniterative and real-time imaging methods. The Monotonicity Princip...

GA-Based Features Selection for Electro-chemical Impedance Spectroscopy on Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries

Online and real-time estimation of the State of Charge (SoC) of batteries is an issue that affects several applications where energy storage systems are used. Among the most effective techniques for estimating the SoC, we find those based on Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). One of the problems that afflict the EIS is that a single frequency sweep can last too long compared to the need to carry out the evaluation of the SoC online and real-time. This work aims to minimize the time...
