Fracture Mechanics: research work on the mechanical behaviour of brittle materials such as natural stones. Emphasis on the experimental results determined by applying the two-parameter model
Fatigue - Fracture Mechanics: research work on the fatigue behaviour of metallic structural components with cracks, subjected to cyclic loading. Emphasis on the formulation of a theoretical model to analyse the fatigue propagation of cracks in welded joints
Fatigue Resistance Criteria for materials subjected to multiaxial stress states, in the case of multiaxial loads variable cyclically or randomly. Emphasis on the formulation of models to determine fatigue life for high number of loading cycles, in a solid subjected to a generic multiaxial loading
Mechanical behaviour of fiber-reinforced materials. Emphasis on the formulation of models to describe the main phenomena occurring in short-fibre-reinforced materials subjected to both static and cyclic loading
Fatigue behavior of metal components characterized by traditional and innovative surface treatments through a numerical model
Nonlocal numerical modeling of nanobeams subjected to static and dynamic stresses, even in the presence of longitudinal and edge cracks
