About
Dr. Vincenzo Muscarello is Senior Lecturer at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT University).
He obtained a master's degree in Aeronautical Engineering from Polytechnic University of Milan in 2009 and a Ph.D. in 2013.
He is a specialist in aero-servo-elasticity and rotorcraft dynamics. His interest spans multidisciplinary modeling for aircraft and rotorcraft dynamic design, verification, and certification.
He was the scientific coordinator of the Clean Sky 2 project "Formosa", funded by the European Union and successfully completed in February 2023, intending to design innovative control surfaces with multiple functions for the NextGen Civil Tiltrotor developed by Leonardo Helicopters.
