Professor Francesco Pellicano

Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering, 1996 – present
University of Modena and Reggio Emilia

Biography:
Francesco Pellicano was born in Rome, Italy on 1966. He received a M.S. degree in Aeronautical Engineering in 1992 and Ph.D. in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics in 1996, University of Rome “La Sapienza”, Dept. of Mechanics and Aeronautics. He was Researcher at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Faculty of Eng., Dept. of Mech. and Civil Eng., 1996-2003. He is currently Professor at the same University 2005 – present

He did research on: nonlinear vibrations of structures; nonlinear normal modes; axially moving systems; nonlinear vibration of shells with fluid structure interaction; gears modeling; non-smooth dynamics; Chaos; Nonlinear Time Series Analysis; Forecasting Methods in Oceanography. He cooperated with Vestroni, Sestieri and Mastroddi of the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and with with: Païdoussis (Mc Gill Univ. Canada); Vakakis (University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign); Amabili (University of Parma, Italy).

He is the co-founder of Pulsar Dynamics and has served there from June 2014 – present.
Pulsar Dynamics is a high tech engineering company engaged in analysis and testing for all vibration and NVH problems and design, optimization and analysis of geared mechanical vibration: FEA Software, HPC and Cloud computing.
