This PhD project will develop a series of damage functions for canvas oil paintings that include chemical processes. These damage functions allow more evidence-based decision making for acceptable museum climates to preserve paintings for future generations. The damage functions will be based on ...
NUANCES (An integrated numerical-experimental approach to predict aging of oil paintings) is a challenging research project funded by NWO (Dutch Research Council) within the VIDI Talent Scheme Grant. We are currently building a team of talented and enthusiastic researchers to work on this ...
L'histoire des populations humaines en milieu aride a toujours été étroitement liée à celle de l'eau et de sa disponibilité au cours du temps. De la préhistoire aux périodes historiques, les populations des régions arides ont, pour s'implanter, successivement profité d'isolats bénéficiant de ...
