Abstract
The crises produced by the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict have starklyhighlighted the critical need for scientific innovation and global cooperation. The pandemic underscored theurgency of swift, science-driven responses to worldwide health emergencies, while the war has intensifiedenergy shortages and material scarcities, amplifying the demand for sustainable and resilient solutions.Against this backdrop, the International Conference on Materials and Energy (ICOME) 2023, hosted by theUniversity of Campania “L. Vanvitelli” in Caserta, Italy, from 30th May to 1st June, and jointly organizedby the Departments of Engineering and Political Science, brought together leading minds in variousfields. The conference delved into pressing topics such as eco-materials, advanced materials, sustainableconstruction, fluid-dynamics and innovative energy systems. Aimed at harmonizing traditional expertisewith cutting-edge approaches, ICOME 2023 emphasized fostering international collaboration, particularlywithin the Mediterranean region, to address shared challenges and drive transformative solutions for a moresustainable future.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
