Dr. D. (Davide) Grazioli

Profile

I am a postdoc in the Computational Mechanics group of Prof. L.J. Sluys at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences of the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. I am currently involved in the “Computational modelling of structural batteries” project leaded by Prof. A. Simone.

I obtained my BSc degree and MSc degree (cum laude) in Civil Engineering from the University of Brescia, Italy. I earned my Ph.D. in Mathematical Models and Methods for Engineering from the University of Brescia with a thesis on the “Multiscale and multiphysics modeling of Li-ion battery cells” (Advisor: Prof. A. Salvadori, University of Brescia; Co-Advisor: Prof. A.F. Bower, Brown University, RI, USA).

Research

My research is currently devoted to the computational modeling of solid-state and structural batteries. Both applications are characterized by a strong coupling between stress development in electrode components and battery cell electrochemical response. My studies are mainly focused on the development of constitutive models accounting for the electrochemo-mechanical interaction in solid polymer electrolytes and the development of computational tools for the performance prediction of fiber-based battery electrodes.
