Professional Summary

Associate researcher at the Galician Center of Mathematical Research and Technology (CITMAga) since 2021. His research lines focus on developing and analyzing novel numerical methods and applying mathematical modelling strategies to compute and solve challenging problems in computational acoustics and structural mechanics, especially in complex systems in natural environments (such as coastal underwater regions) or equipment in industrial facilities. His recent work has been pioneering in the application of non-parametric data-driven mathematical techniques to the classification of the nature of seabed in coastal areas and the numerical characterization of porous absorbing materials for room acoustics and underwater cloaking purposes. During the last years, he has pursued different studies extending the classical partition of unity finite element method to heterogeneous materials and enabling its use for crack detection on multilayered materials.
