Professor
Ivonne Sgura is a Full Professor of Numerical Analysis at the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the University of Salento in Lecce, Italy. She received her PhD in Mathematics from the University of Pisa in 1996 and has been affiliated with the University of Salento since 2000, first as a Senior Lecturer, then as Associate Professor from 2010, before achieving Full Professor status in 2017 following her Italian National Habilitation for Full Professor in Numerical Analysis. Her primary research interests focus on developing innovative numerical methods for differential equations with applications in multiple fields including nonlinear elasticity, electrochemistry, and DNA dynamics. She has made significant contributions to the understanding of pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems, particularly Turing patterns relevant to battery technology and electrodeposition processes. Her work often bridges theoretical mathematics with practical engineering applications, especially in the development of computational tools for simulating complex physical phenomena. Analysis of her publication record shows a strong trend toward interdisciplinary research combining mathematical modeling with electrochemical systems, particularly for battery technology. Her recent work increasingly incorporates machine learning techniques, especially deep learning approaches for parameter identification in complex electrochemical systems. She has published extensively with over 90 papers and an H-index of 21 according to SCOPUS metrics. Italian National Award for Mathematics (INdAM-UMI-SIMAI) 2019 for PhD thesis supervision Member of the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica (INdAM), Section of Scientific Calculus (GNCS) ORCID: 0000-0001-9207-5832 SCOPUS Author ID: 6603115525 Professor Sgura actively supervises graduate students and has developed a strong research group focusing on computational methods for physical applications. Her teaching responsibilities include Numerical Analysis for Master's degree students and Numerical Calculus for Bachelor's degree students in Mathematics. She maintains active collaborations with experimental researchers, particularly in the field of electrochemistry, where her mathematical models help interpret complex experimental observations.
