MSc in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering by the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) and PhD in Civil Engineering by the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC).

Currently, I am full professor of shipbuilding technology at the Higher Technical School of Naval Architects and Offshore Engineers (ETSIN) of the Technical University of Madrid and the Deputy Director of Institutional Relations.

I conduct my research in collaboration with the Model Basin Research Group at ETSIN (CEHINAV) and the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE). My research career has focused on developing computational models for fluid-structure interaction analysis and their application to the design and verification of ships, platforms, and marine structures.

I am the author of more than 35 articles published in first-tier international journals, have presented over 80 papers at international conferences, and have participated in more than 25 European or international research projects.

Additionally, I have been the promoter and co-founder of Compass IS, a company specializing in engineering design, and Scipedia, the developer of the platforms Scipedia.com and BIM TeamUp.

International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering

Tue, 10 May 2016 11:44:46 +0200

The International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) is a research organization created in 1987 at the heart of the prestigious Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) as a partnership between the Government of Catalonia and UPC, in cooperation with UNESCO. The aim of CIMNE is the development of numerical methods and computational techniques for advancing knowledge and technology in engineering and applied sciences.

CIMNE’s headquarters are located at the heart of the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona. CIMNE has also premises at different buildings in several campus of the UPC. CIMNE has also offices in Spain (Madrid, Terrassa and Ibiza). In 2005 CIMNE started its international expansion and since then has created the following international branches: CIMNE Latinoamerica (Non-profit Foundation in Santa Fe, Argentina); CIMNE USA (Non-profit Corporation in Washington DC, USA); CIMNE Singapore (Non-profit Corporation in Singapore) and CIMNE Beijing (China).

CIMNE employs some 250 scientists and engineers who work in the different offices of CIMNE around the world. CIMNE has also established a network of 30 Classrooms in partnership with Universities in Spain and 11 Latin American countries.

The research and technology development (RTD) activities of CIMNE cover a wide spectrum of topics ranging from classical engineering fields such as civil, mechanic, environmental, naval, marine and offshore, food, telecommunication and bio-medical engineering, computer sciences and applied sciences such as material sciences bio-medicine, computational physics, nature, social and economic sciences and multimedia sciences, among others.

Over its history, CIMNE has taken part in over 2,000 RTD projects in cooperation with some 500 companies, universities and research centers worldwide.

Technical Public Works Engineer specializing in Hydrology from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) in 2007. Civil Engineer specializing in Hydraulics and Energy from the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) in 2014.

I began my professional activity in the field of Hydraulic Engineering in 2006 in the company ALATEC. In 2007, I incorporated to the Water and Environment Department of Clothos S.L. until 2009. I worked on the Wastewater and Water Supply Master Plans of Canal de Isabel II.

In 2009, I started as a research engineer in the Hydraulics Laboratory of the School of Civil Engineering of the UPM. In 2014, I joined the Research in Dam Safety (SERPA). Since then, I have been working in different activities and participating in R&D projects within the research group. I worked on numerical thermal models of concrete dam construction in the ACOMBO project and I started my doctoral thesis on this topic

From 16 May 2021 to 15 Sept 2022 I worked in CIMNE-Madrid, meanly in the hydraulics models. I am also finished my doctoral thesis entitled "Thermal evolutionary studies of roller-compacted concrete dams in construction phase" on 22nd November 2021.
