I'm senior scientist within structural mechanics. Recently my research focuses most on structural behavior of floating solar and wind structures, but I have also been working within Oil and Gas and automotive industry. I'm using a combination of numerical tools and experimental assessments in my research to model the mechanical behavior of structural materials. I am and have been leading several national and international research projects
