Luis Alberto Escapa García

Luis Alberto Escapa García is a Professor at the Department of Mechanical, Computer and Aerospace Engineering, within the College of Industrial Engineering, Informatics and Aerospace at the University of León.

• PhD in 2006 from Universitat d'Alacant / Universidad de Alicante with thesis on Hamiltonian Earth rotation dynamics

His research focuses on aerospace engineering and celestial mechanics, particularly the application of canonical perturbation theory to Earth rotation and rigid body dynamics. Key contributions include modeling elastic Earth rotation, non-osculating Andoyer variables, and triaxial Earth nutations.

Scientific output spans three publications (2000-2011) in Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy and related journals, addressing topics in Earth rotation dynamics, canonical perturbation methods, and aerospace mechanics.
