Giuseppe Devillanova

Giuseppe Devillanova serves as Associate Professor of Mathematical Analysis (MAT/05) in the Department of Mechanics, Mathematics and Management at Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy. His research bridges pure mathematical theory with engineering applications through advanced analysis of nonlinear systems and variational structures.

His primary research focuses on nonlinear partial differential equations, variational methods for critical problems, and symmetry analysis in elliptic equations. He investigates wave propagation in elastic media with nonlinear adhesion, geometric constraints in structural mechanics, and fractal properties of irrigation networks. His work extends to foundational topics in set theory and historical analysis of Richard Dedekind's contributions to mathematics.

Analysis of his 2019-2023 publications reveals three dominant research trajectories: (1) Min-max methods for parametrized elliptic problems on unbounded domains with symmetry constraints; (2) Mathematical modeling of nonlinear adhesion phenomena in thermo-elastic waves and flexural beams; (3) Geometric analysis of singular structures in variational problems, including irrigation networks and elastic multi-blisters. His interdisciplinary approach consistently connects theoretical mathematics with mechanical engineering and biomechanical applications.
