Biography:
Prof. Alessandro Reali was born in Pavia on February 28th, 1977. After a Laurea degree (equivalent to MSc) summa cum laude in Civil Engineering at the University of Pavia (2001), he got a MSc (2004) and a PhD (2005) in Earthquake Engineering from the University of Pavia and the Institute of Advanced Study of Pavia. After three years as a Postdoctoral Fellow, he became Assistant Professor (2008), then Tenured Associate Professor (2013) and is currently Full Professor (since 2016) of Mechanics of Solids and Structures at the University of Pavia.
Prof. Reali authored more than 90 papers on international journals, including some seminal articles which have recently led to his identification as one of the "ISI Highly Cited Researchers” (in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017). He was invited to give seminars at many internationally renowned academic institutions, as well as to give plenary and keynote lectures at relevant international conferences. He received important research awards in the field of Computational Mechanics such as the IACM Fellows Award (2016), the IACM “John Argyris” Award (2014), and the ECCOMAS “O.C. Zienkiewicz” Award (2012), as well as an "ERC Starting Grant" (2010).
He also participated to many research projects (being the coordinator for some of them) funded, among others, by the European Research Council (ERC), the European Science Foundation (ESF), the Italian Government (MIUR), and the US Office of Naval Research (ONR), as well as by companies such as, e.g., Total, Hutchinson, Nokia Corporation, and Saes Getters.

Research areas:
Computational Mechanics: isogeometric methods, mixed finite element methods, advanced material modeling, innovative structural elements, strong-form methods, immersed methods, advanced simulation methods for fluids and fluid-structure interaction problems.
