Bio/Research

My main research interest is nonlinear vibrations and stability of shells with and without fluid-structure interaction. I study vibrations of shells and plates made of traditional, composite and functionally graded materials. I have a wide research approach, since I use numerical and analytical tools, as well as laboratory experiments with the most advanced instrumentation, including laser Doppler vibrometers, LMS modal analysis system and large water tunnels. Particular attention is developed in obtaining very accurate reduced-order models that can be fully studied by using bifurcation analysis. The applications of my research are in very different fields: aeronautics, aerospace, biomechanics, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, energy generation.
