Antonino Famà is temporary research assistant at the University of Pavia (Italy), Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering.
Dr. Famà gained his Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering (2010) and Master’s Degree in Civil Structural Engineering (2013) from University of Pavia.
His research interests are in earthquake geotechnical engineering and engineering seismology, among which seismic-geotechnical characterization of sites and soil model development to evaluation of local site effects and estimation of collateral effects induced by the seismic ground shaking: co-seismic and post-seismic instability of natural scopes, liquefaction, soil settlements and lateral displacements.
He was participated on several research projects, furthermore he was involved in Post-Earthquake activities carried out by EUCENTRE in 2016.
Currently he is involved in some research projects among which DPC/RELUIS WP1 project and European project LIQUEFACT.
