Key activities:
Dr Petrolo is a research fellow in aerospace and composite structures. He undertakes research in the structural modelling of structures for static, dynamic and aeroelastic problems.
Dr Petrolo’s research activity deals with the structural analysis of composite lifting surfaces; refined beam, plate and shell models; component-wise approaches, damage analysis and axiomatic/asymptjotic analyses. He is author and co-author of some 50 publications, including 2 books and 25 articles.
He was Post-Doc fellow at the Politecnico di Torino (Italy). He worked in Professor Carrera’s research group on various research topics related to the development of refined structural models of composite structures. Marco earned his PhD in Aerospace Engineering at the Politecnico di Torino in April 2012, discussing a thesis on advanced aeroelastic models for the analysis of lifting surfaces made of composite materials. He gained an MSc in Aerospace Engineering at the Politecnico di Torino, an MSc in Aerospace Engineering at the TU Delft (The Netherlands) and a BSc in Aerospace Engineering at the Politecnico di Torino. He worked as an intern at EADS (Germany). Marco is a Fulbright alumnus and spent research periods at the San Diego State University (USA) and at the University of Michigan (USA). Marco was Adjunct Professor in Fundamentals of Strength of Materials (Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent, Uzbekistan).
