About

I am currently a PhD candidate in Structural, Seismic and Geotechnical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, where I previously earned my M.Sc. Degree in Structural Engineering. My research focuses on developing a computationally efficient multiscale methodology for the nonlinear dynamic analysis and fatigue reliability of slender offshore structural components under hydrodynamic loading. Applications in the field of Offshore Engineering encompass the analysis of Submerged Floating Tunnels (SFTs), Tension Leg Platforms (TLPs) and taut mooring lines subjected to wave loads. In the Wind Engineering domain, relevant applications include both Overhead electrical Line (OHL) conductors and stay cables under turbulent wind excitation.
