Bachelor’s degree in physics (22/09/2015) and master’s degrees in theoretical physics (27/10/2017) at the university of Roma La Sapienza. Thesis in statistical mechanics: software to analyse the stochastic resonance phenomenon via the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. PhD in applied mathematics at the Gran Sasso Science Institute, Italy (3/01/2022) in Computational Fluid Dynamics, developing a parallelised finite-difference numerical scheme for incompressible Newtonian fluids. First postdoc experience at the Department of Mathematics of Unipd, Italy (01/01/2023), with Giulio G. Giusteri on a company-sponsored project on continuum mechanic for Cosserat rods, and in parallel, on the topic of rheology by focusing on the modelling of dense suspensions, including rate-dependent effects in shear jamming phenomena for visco-elasto-
plastic materials.
Currently, I am a postdoc at the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (Spain), working with Marco Ellero. I investigate rheological aspects of complex fluids via numerical simulations by working on a Lagrangian Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method for viscoelasticity using an integral-fractional model. Integral models can be elegantly implemented via SPH, which moreover is built to allow for different constitutive models, from generalised multi-mode Maxwell to fractional models. These models are validated under Small Amplitude Oscillatory Shear (SAOS) flows and a non-linear implementation to include Large Amplitude Oscillatory Shear or complex flows is currently ongoing.
