Daniele Laucelli
Personal data and education Daniele B. Laucelli was born on the 28th of July 1973. He has got his Master of Science degree in Hydraulic Engineering at Technical University of Bari (Italy) on the 13th April 2000 defending a thesis entitled “Experimental study of the hyperturbolent flow in a plastic pipe with internal artificial macro-roughness”, with Prof. Michele Mastrorilli and Prof. Orazio Giustolisi as supervisors. On January 2002 he begun the Ph.D. course in Environmental Engineering at the Engineering Faculty of Taranto – Technical University of Bari, working on a research program focused on data-driven modelling techniques applied to environmental hydraulics phenomena. He worked on his thesis also at the Strategic Research Department of WL | Delft Hydraulics (The Netherlands) and at the Centre for Water Systems at the School of Engineering and Computer Science of University of Exeter (UK). He has got his Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering at Technical University of Bari (Italy) defending a thesis entitled “Environmental modelling by multi-objective techniques and neuro-evolutionary computing”, with Prof. Orazio Giustolisi and Prof. Vladan Babovic as supervisors. Research Interests In this last seven years Daniele has had many different scientific topics on which he spent time and efforts, being involved in many national and international research projects. Firstly in his scientific activity he studied the hydrodynamics of pipes with internal artificial macro roughness, focusing his research on the mathematical expression of friction factor, performing many experimental tests at real scale and applying some data-driven modelling techniques as scientific knowledge discovery procedure. Afterwards, during the Ph.D. period, he started studying of environmental systems, by applying to many real cases of study different data-driven modelling techniques such as Input-Output Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines, Genetic Programming and Evolutionary Polynomial Regression. In particular, some hydrologic application (rainfall-runoff, rainfall-groundwater) was analysed in order to gain further information from data aiming to improve the management of related events. In the last years, the hard-core of his research is focused on planning, design and management of water systems. Up to 2006, he worked on these topics spending his time and efforts at Technical University of Bari and at the Centre for Water Systems – School of Engineering and Computer Science – University of Exeter (UK), where he is actually Honorary Research Assistant. In particular, he is working on the following topics: - Rehabilitation of Water Distribution Systems; - Optimal and robust sizing of Water Distribution Systems; - Failure analysis of Water Systems; - Modelling performance indicators for Water Systems; - Multi-objective for decision support systems in Water Distribution Systems. |
