Alessandro D’Ausilio, who graduated in Chemical Engineering from the University of Naples ‘Federico II’, earned his PhD in Electromechanical Engineering from Ghent University in Belgium, where he lived for 7 years. During his PhD, he focused on CFD modeling of spray combustion in turbulent regimes using the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach and also served as a lecturer in heat and mass transfer in the International Master in Fire Safety Engineering.
His first work experience was in programming for commercial CAD and BIM software, after which he returned to research as an Air Quality R&D engineer at the Flemish research institute VITO. In 2023, he joined the Arianet team, where he works on regional air quality studies.
When he’s not crunching data or writing lines of code, you can find him on a padel court, at a futsal goal, or working on a 3D design at his computer.
