Location: Italy, Potenza
Work: Marco Vona is currently Researcher and Teacher of Structural Engineering at the School of Engineering of the University of Basilicata (Potenza, Italy)
Biographical: The research activity began in 1997 at the Department of Structures, Geotechnics and Geology (DiSGG) University of Basilicata, after graduation in March 1997. The research activity is mainly related to Earthquake Engineering problems, resulting in about 80 papers plus a contribution rules, on national and international reviews, conference proceedings and books Scientific research activities were carried out in the large field of seismic engineering following a logical and structured path. Over the years, the research activity has been focused in the study and development of accurate numerical models aimed at studying the vulnerability of RC buildings. The study and evaluation of seismic vulnerability of the existing RC buildings has represented the main research topic of the last years. Interesting are the experiments on structural elements and structures for the study and development of survey methodologies for evaluating the mechanical properties of concrete Finally, over the recent years, an innovative research line is the activities related to the evaluation of the dynamic characteristics of structures through numerical models and laboratory experiments based on real cases. The applications of these activities varied both, in the study, on a large scale, of buildings seismic vulnerability (e.g. by means of remote sensing) and in the study, on individual buildings, of the damage caused by the earthquake In January of 2009 has won the competition for a research position in academic role at the Faculty of Engineering for the science disciplinary sector ICAR/09 - Structural Design. He participates, as collaborator, to several national and international research contracts and research projects Marco Vona is reviewer of some international prestigious journals as Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, Engineering Structures, Journal of Structural Engineering, Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration From August 2012, Marco Vona is member of Accademic Senate (Senato Accademico) of Basilicata University
