About
My name is Stefano Piccardo, and I am a postdoctoral researcher at RMIT Europe specialising in applied mathematics and computational science. My expertise spans fluid mechanics, fracture mechanics, and electrochemical processes, with a focus on enhancing material sustainability and efficiency by bridging theory with real-world applications. I am skilled in coding with C++, Python, and using COMSOL Multiphysics for simulation. Currently, I am developing multiscale models for galvanic protection coatings in the European project ALCOAT, which aims to improve the re-utilization of scrap aluminium.
I am looking to collaborate with teams interested in integrating computational models to support experimental and engineering work in material development, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration for impactful results.
