Biographical sketch

Luciano Feo is Full Professor of Structural Mechanics in the Department of Civil Engineering (Diciv) at the University of Salerno (UNISA, Italy) and Professor Honoris Causa at the “Ovidius” University of Costanza. He received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees, cum laude, in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of Salerno, a Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from the University of Naples “Federico II”, and a Diploma in “Conception optimisee intelligence des materiaux et des structures”, from the École Polytechnique de Paris. He has participated as a PI or co-PI in various research projects funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MIUR), the Laboratories University Network of Seismic Engineering (ReLUIS) and the Italian National Research Council (CNR). Prof. Luciano Feo is the Director of the Structural Engineering Testing Hall (STRENGTH) of the Department of Civil Engineering of UNISA. Most of his research work concerns composites and nano-composites materials; experimental investigation of composites materials (FRP); computational mechanics; multiscale numerical modelling and simulation of materials and structures; computational design and engineering of innovative sustainable materials and infrastructures; structural rehabilitation of masonry and concrete structures with FRP; full FRP composite structures; connections in composites structures; durability of high performance fiber reinforced concrete (HPFRC).
