Tommaso studied mechanical engineering at Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna and University of Pisa, he completed his undergraduate studies with a master thesis on Non-Prehensile Manipulation. He then continued to develop his knowledge in control and optimization holding research scientist positions at University of Freiburg and KU Leuven. During this time, he focused on the implementation and the application of numerical optimal control methods in different areas like wind energy and robotics.
Tommaso also had experienced working in industry as Robotics Software Engineer for the company Aeolus and as freelancer in software development for augmented reality and scientific computing.

Outside of his professional life, Tommaso enjoys climbing, cycling, and reading about a wide range of topics.

“I am truly grateful for the opportunity to join the research unit of structural concrete at the institute of structural engineering. It is exciting to be part of the upcoming projects where knowledge from industrial and software engineering complement each other. I am looking forward to tackle new challenges contributing to advance the field of civil engineering”
