Industrial mass casualty incidents are an unfortunate reality in the 21st century, but there are few situational training exercises to prepare and to cope with emergencies management. The Authors realized a project to carry out development of the activities devoted to face the complexities arising from emergencies in industrial plants. The...

INTRODUCTION. To present the University of Genoa Advanced Simulation Center (ASC) and the design a trainer (eLap4D) that would achieve the equivalent goals of the fundamentals of laparoscopic surgery trainer at an economical cost. The validation process is going to be shown too. METHODS. The laparoscopic trainer is a physical low-cost...

The aim of this research is to propose a multidisciplinary and integrated solution for healthcare system analysis. The specific goal of the simulation model is the development of an analytical algorithm to support healthcare rescuers to define how to make optimal choices in the face of risk (or uncertainty). The methodological approach...

The use of simulation in laparoscopic surgery training appears to be qualitatively effective if supported by a suitable evaluation system. The increasing demand of more complex laparoscopic simulators has inspired the creation of a 4d simulator which is a physical low-cost laparoscopic training platform that reproduces the tactile feedback...

This work emphasizes the critical need of surface preparation to improve the performance of adhesively bonded 3D printed Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) adherends obtained using Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). In particular, mechanical abrasion and two different plasma pre-treatments, i.e., Atmospheric Pressure Plasma (APP) and...
