Dr. Simone Loreti

Biography

Simone Loreti is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research (OCCR) at the University of Bern, Switzerland. His work focuses on modeling and simulations in infrastructure networks, with a particular emphasis on their interconnectedness and the phenomenon of floods. He employs methods from complex networks and human mobility modeling to address these challenges. Prior to this, he worked as an Industrial Postdoctoral Researcher at F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG in Basel, where his research centered on fluidized bed granulation using techniques such as the Discrete Element Method (DEM), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Population Balance Modelling (PBM). Loreti obtained his PhD as a Marie Curie Early Stage Researcher at the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom, focusing on the modeling and simulations of agglomerates breakage. He holds a Master's degree in Physics of Complex Systems from IFISC in Mallorca, Spain, and another Master’s in Theoretical Physics from the University of Bologna, Italy. He also completed his Bachelor's degree in Physics at the University of Bologna, Italy.
