Interests
Enrico’s research mainly focuses on the evaluation and modelling of residual stress across the scales, as well as fatigue and fracture problems in processed, welded and additively manufactured metallic materials. He is also interested in biomaterials with hierarchical structure (i.e. human teeth and bamboo) and shape memory effect in polymeric materials. Enrico is often involved in industry-oriented projects aimed at assessing the performance of engineering components and structures, particularly for aerospace applications.
A wide range of experimental techniques, at length-scales ranging from macro- nano-scale, are usually involved in his experimental works (e.g. synchrotron-based X-ray, Electron/Ion Microscopy and related techniques, static and cyclic load-controlled tests etc). He also enjoys using Finite Element Methods for the numerical modelling of results from experiments. He is an active peer reviewer for a number of renowned international journals in the fields of Solid Mechanics and Materials.
Alongside research activity, at University of Oxford Enrico enjoys engaging students. In fact, he is currently Lecturer at Lady Margaret Hall (LMH) college and Tutor at the Department of Engineering Science.
