Eleonora Massarelli

Eleonora Massarelli is a PhD candidate and Research Fellow at the Department of Structural, Building and Geotechnical Engineering (DISEG), Politecnico di Torino, Italy. She is pursuing her doctoral studies in Civil and Environmental Engineering as part of the 40th cycle (2024–2027). She also serves as an External Lecturer and Teaching Assistant, contributing to undergraduate education in the Architecture program.

Her research focuses on structural health monitoring of civil infrastructure, particularly bridges, using advanced system identification and modal analysis techniques under operational conditions. Her work emphasizes output-only methods, which rely on ambient vibrations rather than controlled excitation, making them suitable for real-world monitoring applications.

The available publication highlights her engagement in cutting-edge research related to indirect bridge health monitoring, addressing practical needs, technical requirements, and current limitations in the field. This aligns with broader trends in smart infrastructure and predictive maintenance using sensor data and dynamic response analysis.
