Abstract

In this Document, the situation of a Company, fictitiously named “Hydrogen” and operating in the
hydroelectric production sector, is represented.
The following paragraphs describe the strategic peculiarities in terms of company needs and of an
employee, representing his development situation in the context of insertion and with reference to
the inter and intra company strategies undertaken.

Paragraph 5.1 represents the organizational and strategic situation of the identified company,
identifying the objectives and needs of the people involved in the formulation of the corporate
strategy, using an analytical model for evaluating the priorities of each function or unit of the company
itself.
Paragraph 5.2 ,then, analyzes the development plan of a sample employee taking as a reference for
the advancement of skills in terms of emotional intelligence in reaching the executive level.
In Paragraph 5.3, a review of the development plan is carried out based on the strategic needs of
the identified company, also taking into account the achievement of part of the objectives and the
introduction of other reference parameters.
Finally, in Paragraph 5.4, the methods for developing company resources are identified using intercompany
collaboration tools that promote horizontal and vertical development of the resources and
processes themselves, as well as adequate professional development of the resources involved.

Abstract

Earthquakes pose a significant threat to dams and other reservoir structures. Beyond the ground shaking itself, the dynamic interaction between the earthquake ground motion and the water in the reservoir creates a phenomenon known as hydrodynamic pressure. This pressure can significantly exceed the static hydrostatic pressure that the dam is typically designed to withstand. Understanding and accurately predicting hydrodynamic pressure is crucial for ensuring the safety and stability of dams during seismic events. This paper provides an excursus on the literature present on this topic and delves into the formulation included in the Ministerial Decree. 198 2 developing in detailed calculation steps and thus determining in closed form the resultant of the pressures and its point of application.

Abstract

Robustness plays a relevant role in the capacity of a structure to sustain abnormal loads
or to deal with unexpected events with large effects, such as explosions and terroristic
attacks. Such situations on dams may have extremely large consequences. For buildings,
the design approach that best implements robustness concepts is represented by the so
called “Consequence Based Design”: even if nothing is known about the cause, selective
element removals and extreme load on the structure are modeled, and their effects are
determined with respect to progressive collapse and damage arrest.
In the paper we try to set-up a “Consequence Based Assessment” of a typical example of
a gravity dam built between the ‘30s and ‘40s of the last century in the northwestern
Italian Alps. A simplified model of the structure is adopted. Removal of parts of the dam
cross-section is assumed to occur: the effects of the extent of damage is discussed on the
bases of the tension generated within the body of the dam.
