My Profile

About

I am associate professor of 'Hydraulics' at the Polytechnic University of Bari (Italy). Main current activities: 1. Turbulence mixing and transport induced by regular/irregular wave breaking, with specific interest in coherent structures (large experimental activity). 2. Data analysis and modelling of semi enclosed basins, using field measurements provided by monitoring stations managed by the research group I join. 3. Dispersion mechanism and transport in vegetated channels. 4. Jets spreading through rigid vegetation also in presence of Coriolis force 5. Experimental and numerical investigation of waves interacting with cylindrical obstacles
