The GIMC Best PhD Thesis Awards committee, composed by Stefania Cherubini (Politecnico di Bari), Ugo Galvanetto (Università di Padova), Antonio Madeo (Università della Calabria), Vincenzo Mallardo (Università di Ferrara) and Cristian Marchioli (Università di Udine), selected the following theses, defended in 2023, as the best PhD theses in Computational Solid and Fluid Mechanics:

  • Dr. Alessandro Marengo, Politecnico di Milano
    “The phase-field modeling of fracture evolution in ductile materials with application to paperboard mechanics”.
    This thesis was also selected as candidate for the ECCOMAS PhD Award.

  • Dr. Alessandro Della Pia, Università di Napoli Federico II
    “Numerical and experimental investigation of unsteady plane liquid jets”.

Call per il premio GIMC/ECCOMAS 2023 per la migliore tesi di Dottorato Italiana

Il GIMC conferirà due premi a due giovani studiosi che abbiano conseguito il titolo di Dottore di Ricerca nel corso del 2023, discutendo una Tesi su tematiche relative ai Metodi Computazionali in Ingegneria e nelle Scienze Applicate in una Università o centro di Ricerca Italiano.

I due premi riguardano le due principali aree scientifiche del GIMC, solidi e fluidi:

- Premio GIMC - Best PhD Thesis in Meccanica Computazionale dei Solidi

- Premio GIMC - Best PhD Thesis in Meccanica Computazionale dei Fluidi

Anche per il 2023, la partecipazione all’ ECCOMAS Award for the best PhD theses on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering è associata al premio GIMC. Pertanto, le Tesi presentate per uno dei due Premi GIMC possono essere contestualmente candidate, mediante esplicita richiesta nella domanda, anche al premio ECCOMAS "Eccomas Award for the Two Best Phd Theses in 2023 on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering”....
