Profilo
He is the Director of the Master Course in Mathematical Engineering and past-President of the Italian Group of Hydraulics. He led the PhD School of Civil and Environmental Engineering Sciences of the University of Padua from 2008 to 2017 and was director of the Hydraulic Laboratory of the Department of Hydraulic, Coastal, Environmental and Geothecnical Engineering, University of Padua for 1998 to 2007. He served as elected President of the Italian Hydraulic Group (GII) form 2016 to 2021. He is Member of the Concordi Academy of Rovigo. He coordinated the 10th Symposium on River, Coastal and Estuarine Morphodynamics - RCEM, Padua, Italy, 2017 and co-coordinated the 15th International Symposium on RiverSedimentation, Florence, Italy, 2023.
His research interests concern fluvial and tidal morphodynamics, hydrodynamics; geophysical flows; bio fluid dynamics.
His international network includes the University of Auckland (New Zealand), the University of Minneapolis, University of California at Irvine and Boston University (USA). He has contributed to many invited lectures, workshops, and seminars over the years, e.g., a keynote speech at the 33rd Annual Meeting of the Gilbert Club (UC Berkeley, USA, 2016).
