“…For example, one might simulate the seismic behavior of an object, reconstruct its geometric configuration, or record the conservatory condition. Within the RESIMUS studies, some in-depth analysis has been pursued on significant isolated sculptures , Pintucchi et a. 2019, Mattoni and Tanganelli 2018) using 3D geometrical models acquired during laser scanner campaigns (Tanganelli et al 2019, Verdiani and Fantini 2012.…”

Any moment the earth can shake, but we do not know when or where. If it happens, our Heritage might be in danger. Shaking Heritage addresses the topic of the seismic vulnerability of museum collections. It develops a way to assess the seismic risks for movable Heritage, proposing a synthetic method to rate the vulnerable settings. It discusses the necessity of integrating museography and anti-seismic solutions for museums and exhibitions, and studies exhibit solutions that would improve the seismic safety of collections and setups. It stresses the necessity of constructing shared guidelines and policies for the safety of the movable Heritage. Shaking Heritage is a step forward in acknowledging the importance of the anti-seismic culture among museum institutions and researchers.

“…The rigid block analysis has been introduced in the 60s [17], andthanks to its simplicity -is widely used even nowadays [18][19][20][21][22], even though it can provide information regarding only the motion of the system. The adoption of FEM to artifacts is a recent achievement [23][24][25] allowed by the digital scanner 3D technology and by the increased computational effectiveness of computing devices. FE analysis is effective in providing information both on the motion of the system and on its stress level, and it can describe different collapse mechanisms, depending on the assumptions made for the material behavior and the interface conditions.…”

“…As a consequence, a reliable classification of the foundation soil requires to check the consistenceand the exact depth -of the uppermost layers of the soil; according to the general information currently collected, the soil could belong to the classes B, C or D, depending of the depth and density of the single layers. In some of the performed analyses [32] different soil classes have been assumed for the foundation soil, whilst in the most part of the investigations [25,27,33] the soil-type B, which has the higher probability to correspond to the foundation soil, has been assumed. Some investigations have been planned to check the foundation soil, in order to define the mechanical properties of the most superficial layers.…”

The art goods represent a priceless asset of the cultural and artistic identity of communities. Nevertheless, the seismic performance of museums' content is only rarely checked, despite the several losses occurred in the last earthquakes (Emilia Region 2012, Aquila 2009, Central Italy 2016). As a consequence, risk mitigation and management have been paying an increasing attention to artistic and cultural goods. Such artifacts, despite presenting an intrinsic vulnerability-due to their irregular shape, slenderness, fragility-rarely are adequately protected from earthquakes. The research project "RESIMUS" has developed in this scenario, and it focuses on the seismic vulnerability of the collections exposed in the Museum of Bargello in Florence. A special attention is paid to the role played by the staging on the seismic performance of the artifacts. The Museum of Bargello represents a privileged case-study, both for the importance and the value of its collections and for their staging variety. The staging adopted in the Museum, indeed, presents different types, materials, ages and dynamic properties, representing a special example of site-specific outfitting. The research project has involved different scientists and disciplines, providing results which concern the laserscanner survey of the objects, their classification according to the main mechanisms of collapse, the site-specific seismic input and the finite element modeling of some case-studies.

“…It is well known that the reliability of the numerical analysis depends on the assumptions made in the analysis. Some numerical analyses were performed within the research project "Resimus" [4,5,[15][16][17] on the statue "Cerere" by Bartolomeo Ammannati. Two advanced Finite Element models have been adopted for representing the artifact.…”

“…The adoption of FEM, however, requires many assumptions regarding the mechanical properties of the materials and the boundary conditions to assume for the object and for its restraint. Previous studies developed by some of the Authors [4,5] pointed out the importance played by some quantities, such as the strength and the friction coefficient of the materials, in the achieved collapse mechanism and the expected dynamic response of sculptures. The reliable calibration of the numerical model to use for seismic analysis requires the availability of experimental results.…”

The protection of art goods is an important issue of the seismic engineering. Artifacts are often made by fragile and ancient material, and they can easily present irregular shapes and high slenderness. In these years many contributions have been devoted to their analysis, based on numerical models having different complexity and computational effort. The Finite Element Models represent the most common and versatile approach for the representation of artifacts. Nevertheless, their reliability depends on the numerical assumptions made for the analysis, which requires a wide number of information regarding the dynamic behavior of the artifacts, such as the friction between the analyzed object and its support, the effective damping, the inelastic involvement of material, etc. In this work an experimental campaign has been started aimed at determining the main factors which affect the dynamic representation of artifacts through FEM analysis and simplified models. A large number of experimental tests, both static and dynamic, have been performed, by adopting both real and reduced scale objects.
