Education Mathematics | Mathematics 2015 – 2020 EPFL Directed by Joachim Krieger MAS / Diplôme d'enseignement pour le degré secondaire 2 | Pedagogy 2019 – 2020 HEP Vaud Master of Science | Mathematics 2011 – 2014 University of Turin Directed by Susanna Terracini Bachelor of Science | Mathematics 2009 – 2011 University of Turin Directed by Luigi Rodino Teaching & PhD Courses Discretization methods in fluids ME-371 This course provides an introduction to the approximation methods used for numerical simulation in fluid mechanics. The fundamental concepts are presented in the context of the finite differences method and then extended to the finite and spectral element method. Dynamic finite element analysis of structures ME-473 The course focuses on the dynamic analysis of 3D structures using the finite element method in the context of linear elasticity. Students will gain proficiency in numerical techniques widely employed in static and dynamic structural analysis, and apply these methods to address real-world problems. Finite element method ME-372 In this course, the student gets acquainted with the theoretical aspects of the finite element method, the most commonly used computational technique for solving elliptic problems. He learns to apply the finite element method to simple test cases and to more complex problems faced in practice
