Pinto Valentina |
I am Valentina Pinto, PhD student in “Mechanical, Manufacturing, Management and Aerospace Innovation” at the University of Palermo. I have earned a Master Degree in biomedical engineering in 2021. During the last months of University, I had the opportunity to work in the bioengineering group of Ri.MED foundation, where I developed my thesis, working on a new approach to the implementation of PIV analysis for complex cardiovascular problems using SPH synthetic imaging. My PhD project is about the advanced structural characterization of shape memory alloys with superelastic behavior for the design of prostheses and biomedical devices. The project aims to use, in an innovative and combined way, two full-field measurement techniques, respectively of deformation and temperature: Digital Image Correlation and Differential Thermography using infrared cameras. The information obtained will offer the potential to develop more effective characterization, simulation and mechanical design tools for the creation of more effective and safe biomedical devices. |
