معرفی
Matteo Icardi is an Associate Professor in Applied Mathematics at the University of Nottingham's School of Mathematical Sciences, appointed in October 2017. His research bridges numerical methods, mathematical modeling, and engineering applications with emphasis on complex flow systems and computational frameworks.
Education:
- BSc and MSc in Engineering Mathematics from Politecnico di Torino
- PhD in Chemical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino (2012) with thesis on 'Computational models for turbulent poly-dispersed flows: LES and QBMM'
Research Interests: Professor Icardi specializes in multiphase flow modeling, porous media transport, multiscale methods, uncertainty quantification, and computational fluid dynamics. His work leverages OpenFOAM-based solvers for applications in environmental fluid dynamics, lithium-ion battery simulation, and industrial transport processes. Current research focuses on model reduction techniques and physics-informed neural networks for complex systems.
Publication Trends: Recent work (2023-2025) demonstrates strong focus on homogenization methods (HiPhom), topological data analysis for infrastructure resilience, and multiscale modeling of peatlands, bubble dynamics, and electrochemical transport. The research consistently addresses heterogeneous porous media using advanced computational frameworks with applications spanning environmental systems and energy storage.
