Biography

Dr. Francesco Fedele is an Assistant Professor in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering and in the the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech. He received his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of Vermont in 2004 and earned his Laurea (magna cum laude) in Civil Engineering from the University Mediterranea, Italy, in 1998. Dr. Fedele joined the faculty at Georgia Tech in 2007 after a postdoctoral research position at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. His current research focus is on nonlinear wave phenomena, fluid mechanics, sustainable ocean energy, computational methods and inverse problems. The corresponding research thrusts are: wave turbulence and rogue waves, algorithms for biomedical tomographic imaging, mathematical modeling and experimentation on renewable devices to harness energy from tidal streams.
