Scholar-generated biography
Lorenzo Macorini is a Professor of Structural Engineering at Imperial College London, specializing in nonlinear analysis, finite element method, and masonry structures. His research focuses on the behavior of masonry under seismic and cyclic loading, with an emphasis on mesoscale modeling and nonlinear interface elements. He has developed advanced finite element models for the analysis of steel and composite structures, including steel–concrete and timber-concrete composite beams. His work also addresses the long-term performance and failure mechanisms of structural systems, incorporating probabilistic assessments for scour and buckling phenomena. Macorini's research contributes to the understanding of structural reliability and the design of resilient infrastructure.
