Bio
I’m a computational mechanics researcher at the University of Rey Juan Carlos in Madrid under the supervision of Professor Miguel Otaduy. Currently working on elasticity simulation, my research consists in increasing speed and accuracy through coarsening methods.
I’m looking for a job! I will be applying to both industry and academic positions. I’m particularly interested in roles where I can apply the research I conducted during my PhD.
Research interests: Finite element method, elastic simulation, microstructures, homogenization, coarsening.

High-Order Elasticity Interpolants for Microstructure Simulation
High-Order Elasticity Interpolants for Microstructure Simulation
In
Computer Graphics Forum (Proc. SCA),
2022.
We propose a novel formulation of elastic materials based on high-order interpolants, which fits accurately complex elastic behaviors, but remains conservative. The proposed high-order interpolants can be regarded as a high-dimensional extension of radial basis functions, and they allow the interpolation of derivatives of elastic energy, in particular stress and stiffness. Given the proposed parameterization of elasticity models, we devise an algorithm to find optimal model parameters based on training data. We have tested our methodology for the homogenization of 2D microstructures, and we show that it succeeds to match complex behaviors with high accuracy.
