Giulia/times 3

With Giulia Milana, a former student of Prof. Bontempi, we just published a journal paper on the topic of her Master Thesis (the ultimate capacity of diagrid systems) in the Scopus indexed journal Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering. I co-advised Giulia during her Master Thesis.

G. Milana, P. Olmati, K. Gkoumas, F. Bontempi, Ultimate Capacity of Diagrid Systems for Tall Buildings in Nominal Configuration and Damaged State. Period. Polytech. Civil Eng., Online First (2015) paper 7795. DOI: 10.3311/PPci.7795

Giulia was recently awarded with a best Thesis award for ‘13-‘14 from the Milan Engineering Chamber, and a paper from her Thesis will be published shortly in the Italian Journal "Costruzioni Metalliche". 



 

Since and before her Thesis defense, we published together four conference papers, in National and International conferences and workshops. The most recent was at the IF CRASC ’15, the Second Congress on Forensic Engineering and the Sixth Congress on Collapses, Reliability and Retrofit of Structures, in Rome, which she also presented. 

Milana, G., Olmati, P., Gkoumas, K. “Scenario Based Structural Robustness Assessment of Tall Diagrid Structures”, accepted at the IF CRASC ’15, Third Congress on, Forensic Engineering - Sixth Congress on Collapses, Reliability and Retrofit of Structures, Rome (Italy), 14-16 May 2015.

Giulia is nowadays seeking new opportunities in the UK, willing to pursue a PhD in structural Engineering or work in the private sector.
