Simone Venturini

Simone Venturini is a Fixed-term Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (DIMEAS) at Politecnico di Torino. He is affiliated with the College of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Automotive Engineering and serves as a course collaborator for several core mechanical and automotive engineering programs.

His research focuses on applied mechanics and structural dynamics, with specific interests in vibrations, rotordynamics, experimental modal analysis, and the experimental-numerical correlation of mechanical systems. He is actively involved in the Vehicle Dynamics research group at DIMEAS, where his work integrates digital twin technologies for automotive components such as wheels and tire-rim systems. His expertise extends to energy storage and the structural dynamic design of machines.

His recent publications (2024–2021) highlight advancements in digital twin modeling for failure identification, rotor dynamics with magnetic supports, and model reduction techniques for tracked vehicles. These works appear in prominent journals such as Mechanism and Machine Theory, Engineering Failure Analysis, and International Journal of Non-Linear Mechanics, reflecting a strong trend toward integrating experimental data with numerical models for real-world engineering applications.

Simone Venturini contributes to teaching across multiple degree programs, including Mechanical System Dynamics, Vehicle Mechanics, and Vehicle Dynamics Simulation at both Bachelor's and Master's levels. He has been consistently involved in these courses from the 2019/2020 academic year through 2025/26, demonstrating sustained academic engagement.

His scientific work aligns with key research sectors including PE8_7 (Mechanical Engineering), PE8_10 (Manufacturing Engineering), and PE8_14 (Automotive and Rail Engineering) under the ERC framework, and supports UN Sustainable Development Goals 7, 9, and 12. He is a member of the IIND-02/A – Applied Mechanics scientific branch within Area 0009 (Industrial and Information Engineering).

He collaborates extensively with researchers such as Elvio Bonisoli, Carlo Rosso, Mauro Velardocchia, and Enrico Galvagno. Although no formal advising or grant information is provided, his collaborative research output suggests active participation in funded or institutional research projects. He is part of the Vehicle Dynamics research group at DIMEAS, which serves as his primary research team and laboratory environment.
