Biography

Prof. Giuseppe Lacidogna - Short presentation text Giuseppe Lacidogna achieved the National Academic Qualification in Italy as Full Professor of Structural Mechanics in 2018. He is Fellow of the European Academy of Sciences, Engineering Division, Brussels, Belgium, effective from July 4, 2018. He has been Associate Professor in Structural Mechanics at the Department of Structural, Geotechnical and Building Engineering (DISEG), Politecnico di Torino, Torino (Italy) since January 2011. He received his PhD degree in Structural Engineering from Politecnico di Torino in 1994, where he graduated cum Laude in Architecture in 1985. Professor Lacidogna is currently Member of the Academic Board of the Doctorate Course in Civil and Environmental Engineering of Politecnico di Torino, and has been Director of the Doctorate Course in Structural Engineering (2016-2018). He is member of the Editorial Board of several international journals, and is an active member of several associations; among them: AIMETA, IA-FraMCoS, SEM, and RILEM. He is Author of more than 300 publications, among which: seven monographs, more than 120 papers in refereed international journals (appearing on SCOPUS and ISI databases), 24 book chapters. He received a Certificate Merit Award from the European Society for Experimental Mechanics (EuraSEM) for his research activity (2018), and has been Inserted in "Top Italian Scientists List", Engineering-Mechanics Area, Macro Area Engineering. Torino, January 2021
