Alexandros Anastasiadis

Alexandros Anastasiadis is a Doctoral Assistant and PhD Student Representative at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). He is affiliated with the School of Engineering (STI), holding roles in the Unsteady Flow Diagnostics Laboratory (UNFOLD) under the Department of Mechanical Engineering (IGM) and the Biorobotics Laboratory (BIOROB) under the Institute of Bioengineering. His research focuses on bio-inspired propulsion systems, robotics, and fluid dynamics, particularly in undulatory swimming mechanisms. He has contributed to studies on energy efficiency in robotic systems and biomechanical trade-offs in aquatic locomotion. His work bridges mechanical engineering and robotics, with applications in bio-mimetic design and fluid-structure interactions.

Research Interests: Bio-inspired robotics, undulatory locomotion, fluid dynamics, mechanical design, and energy optimization.

Labs/Teams: UNFOLD Lab (Mechanical Engineering), BIOROB Lab (Biorobotics), and the Doctoral Program in Mechanics at EPFL.
