Biography
Professor Antonio Pellegrino completed a Laurea Degree (equivalent to BSc + MSC) (2008) and PhD (2012) in Mechanical Engineering at the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (DIIM), University of Catania, Italy, where he worked primarily on designing a direct tension Hopkinson Bar apparatus and on studying the properties of materials under high strain rate of deformation using the split Hopkinson bar.
Antonio started in Oxford as a postdoctoral researcher in February 2012 and was appointed to his current position in November 2017.
