Biography
Dr. Alfredo E. Huespe is Mechanical Engineer from the National University of Cordoba, Argentina, and Ph.D. from Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Since 1998, he is Researcher at Conicet, Argentina and Professor at the National University of Litoral, Argentina. Since 2010, he is Associate Professor at the Technical University of Catolonia, Spain. In 2003, he has been a Ramon y Cajal Research Fellow at the Technical University of Catolonia. In 2007, he has been a Fulbrigth-Conicet Fellow at Brown University, USA. His specific areas of interest include computational solid mechanics, computational failure mechanics, fracture mechanics, finite elements for plasticity and damage models, and strain localization phenomenon. More recently he has been researching in the field of material design.
