Cagliari, Sept. 12th-16th 2010 Message from ICLP President Dear friends and colleagues, On behalf of the ICLP Scientific Committee, I have the pleasure of welcoming you to the 30th International Conference on Lightning Protection, Cagliari, Italy. Since 1951, this is the fifth time ICLP is organized in Italy, the last Italian Edition having been held in Florence in 1996. This is a clear recognition of the long-lasting involvement and high-level research work of Italian scientists and engineers in the field of lightning physics and protection. I should mention, however, that unlike the previous Italian editions, it is the first time that ICLP is organized off the mainland, in the beautiful island of Sardinia and in the charming city of Cagliari. The program includes four keynote lectures given by eminent scientists in the field, about 30 technical sessions, including two special sessions on lightning safety and medicine and a special session on Lightning to Tall Structures and Wind Turbines coorganized with the IPLT (International Project on Lightning to Tall structures). The technical sessions will provide an in-depth coverage of lightning physics, electromagnetic effects on various systems and structures and lightning protection challenges. Many individuals and institutions have contributed to the organization of this conference. I wish to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to the Chairpersons Prof. Carlo Mazzetti and Prof. Carlo Alberto Nucci for their outstanding leadership. My deep appreciation goes to the members of the Local Organizing Committee chaired by Prof. Fabrizio Pilo for their dedication, efficiency and hard work to make this 30th ICLP a success. Special thanks are also due to the Chairman of the Technical Program Committee, Prof. Alberto Borghetti for his excellent work. Without his active commitment, ICLP 2010 would not have been possible at this level of quality. My sincere gratitude goes also to the members of the Scientific Committee, to Prof. V. Cooray and Dr. Fabio Fiamingo of the ICLP Executive Board, to the Sessions Chairs and co-Chairs and, last but not least, to all the authors and speakers of the conference. Finally, I do hope that ICLP 2010 will be a fruitful, pleasant and inspiring conference for all of you. I am also confident that you will enjoy the fine social events prepared for you by the Local Organizing Committee. Enjoy ICLP 2010!

Cagliari's Sardinian name Casteddu literally means castle. It has about 160,000 inhabitants, or about 400,000 including the outlying townships (metropolitan area). An ancient city with a long history, Cagliari has seen the occupation of several civilisations. It was the capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia (which in the 1861 became the Kingdom of Italy) from 1324 to 1720 and from 1798 to 1815. Seat of the important University of Cagliari and the Primate Roman Catholic archdiocese of Sardinia, the city is an important regional cultural, educational, political and artistic centre, known for its diverse Art Nouveau architecture, vibrant nightlife and several monuments. It is also Sardinia's economic and industrial hub, having one of biggest ports in the Mediterranean sea, an international airport, and the 28th highest income rate in Italy, comparable to several Northern cities, such as Turin, Vicenza and Genoa. History Cagliari has been inhabited since ancient times. It occupies a favourable position between the sea and a fertile plain, and is surrounded by two swamps (which afforded defences from enemies from inner lands) and is close to high and green mountains (to which people could evacuate if everything else was lost). Some testimonies of prehistoric inhabitants were found in Monte Claro and in Cape Sant'Elia. Under the name of Karalis, it was established around the 7th century BC as one of a string of Phoenician colonies in Sardinia. It passed with the rest of the island first to the control of Carthage and then to Rome in 238 BC when the Romans defeated the Carthaginians. Subsequently ruled in turn by the Vandals and the Byzantine Empire, Cagliari became the eponymous capital of an independent kingdom. During the 11th century, the Pisan republic conquered Cagliari and re-built the town itself. The Pisans built some of the fortifications that still surround the current district of Castello, most notably the two remaining white limestone towers designed by architect Giovanni Capula. During the 14th century, the Kingdom of Aragon conquered Cagliari after a battle against the Pisans and advanced its plan to conquer all of Sardinia. When Sardinia was finally conquered by the Crown of Aragon, Cagliari became the administrative capital of the viceroyalty of Sardinia, which later came under the rule of the Castilian/Spanish Empire. In 1718, after a brief rule of the Austrian Habsburgs, Cagliari and Sardinia came under the House of Savoy. As ruler of Sardinia, the Savoys took the title of kings of the Sardinian kingdom. The Sardinian kingdom comprised Savoy and Nice (currently in France), Piedmont and Liguria, as well as Sardinia. From the 1870s, with the unification of Italy, the city experienced a century of rapid growth. Many outstanding buildings were erected by the end of the 19th century during the office of Mayor Ottone Bacaredda. During World War II Cagliari was heavily bombed by the Allies in February 1943. After the war, the population of Cagliari rebounded and many apartment blocks were erected in new residential districts. Main Sights The old part of the city (called Castello, the castle) lies on top of a hill, with a wonderful view of the Gulf of Cagliari (also known as Gulf of the Angels). Most of its city walls are intact, and feature the two 13th century white lime-stone towers, St. Pancras Tower and the Elephant Tower. The local white lime-stone was also used to build the walls of the city and many buildings. D. H. Lawrence, in his lively memoir of a voyage to Sardinia, Sea and Sardinia, undertaken in January 1921, described the effect of the warm Mediterranean sunlight on the white limestone city and compared Cagliari to a "white Jerusalem". The city is said to be built on seven hills (Sant'Elia, Bonaria, Monte Urpinu, Castello, Monte Claro, Tuvixeddu and San Michele). The Cathedral was restored in the 1930s turning the former Baroque façade into a Medieval Pisan style façade, more akin to the original appearance of the church. The bell tower is original. The interior has a nave and two aisles, with a pulpit (1159–1162)[18] sculpted for the Cathedral of Pisa but later donated to Cagliari. In Castello is also the Sardinian Archaeological Museum, the biggest and most important regarding the prehistoric Nuragic civilisation of Sardinia. Finally, Castello hosts many craftsmen workshops in its tightened and scenic lanes. The Basilica di San Saturnino is one 14 ICLP 2010 PROGRAM Cagliari, Sept. 12th-16th 2010 of the most important Palaeo-Christian monuments in Sardinia. A Palaeo-Christian crypt is also under the church of San Lucifero (1660), dedicated to Saint Lucifer, a bishop of the city. This has a Baroque façade with ancient columns and sculpted parts, some of which found in the nearby necropolis. The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Bonaria was built by the Aragonese in 1324–1329 during the siege to the Castle in which the Pisan had taken shelter. The other early districts of the town (Marina, Stampace, Villanova) retain much of their original appeal and still seem to function as distinct villages within the town. Considerable other remains of the ancient city are still visible at Cagliari, the most striking of which are those of the Roman Amphitheatre, carved into a block of rock (the typical lime-stone on which Cagliari is built), and of an aqueduct; the latter a most important acquisition to the city, where fresh water is scarce. Beaches Cagliari has one of the longest beaches in an Italian town. The Poetto beach stretches for 13 km. Economy Cagliari is the main commercial and industrial centre of the island, with many major Italian factories within its provincial boundaries. Cagliari also has one of the largest fish markets in all of Italy with a vast array of fish for sale to both the public and trade. Tourism is also one of the major industries of the city. Climate Cagliari has a Mediterranean Climate, with hot dry summers and very mild winters. Its climate is comparable to that of Southern California, but it is often refreshed by northwesterly winds.

The University of is a public and state University. It has about 36,000 enrolled students, a teaching staff of over 1,200 and a technical-administrative staff of about 1,300 people. In addition, there are 270 visiting professors. There are 11 faculties: Architecture, Economics; Educational sciences; Engineering; Foreign Languages and Literatures; Humanities; Law; Mathematics, Physics and Natural Sciences; Medicine and Surgery; Pharmacy; Political Sciences. The University of Cagliari is one of the largest enterprises in the Region of Sardinia, thanks to its international policy and its numerous agreements with prestigious universities in Europe and around the world. Gastronomy Cagliari has some peculiar gastronomic traditions. Many dishes are based on the wide variety of fish and seafood, but also pasta, ravioli and meat are traditional meals. Although it is possible to trace influences from Spanish cuisine, Cagliaritanian food has a distinctive and unique character. Very good wines are also part of Cagliaritanians' dinners: excellent wines are in fact produced in the nearby vineyards of the Campidano plain. Nightlife Cagliari is a touristic city and, especially in summer, a lot of clubs and pubs are goals for youth and tourists. Pubs and nightclubs are concentrated in the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, a narrow street in Stampace district, Marina district, near to the port, in Castello district, and through the Poetto beach (in summer). 15 ICLP 2010 PROGRAM Cagliari, Sept. 12th-16th 2010 Practical Information Passport and Visas Delegates are advised to contact the nearest embassy, consulate or travel agency for information about the passport and visa requirements from their country for entry to Italy.
