Emre Elmas is the Fundraising and Project Responsible of both Farplas and Fark Labs and the Coordinator of REVOLUTION Project funded by EC Horizon 2020 FP. In Farplas and Fark Labs, he has been responsible for developing, managing, and coordinating mainly international based R&D projects in the scope of urban mobility, electric vehicles, lightweighting technologies, batteries, digital transformation of manufacturing plants and robotics. He is also the Coordinator of EIT UM RIS Hub Türkiye.
Sergio Jiménez
Fatigue4Light project’s coordinator, CIMNE
Sergio Jiménez is a Civil Engineer and coordinator of the Fatigue4Light European H2020 project. He is developing his career as researcher at CIMNE and working as Associate Lecturer in Structural Analysis and Mechanics at UPC in Barcelona. He has combined his PhD studies in Structural Analysis developing numerical models for the study of the fatigue phenomenon with his incipient career as researcher collaborating in national and international R+D projects in the analysis of mechanical nonlinearities of metals and composite materials.
Alejandro Cornejo
Civil Engineer, Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC)
Alejandro Cornejo is a Civil Engineer from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC). He holds a BSc and MSc in Civil Engineering (2015 and 2017 respectively) and a PhD in Structural Analysis (2020) by the UPC. Alejandro’s thesis was awarded as one of the best UPC theses in 2020. Currently, he is a Serra Húnter tenure-eligible lecturer in the Environmental and Civil Engineering Department (DECA) of the UPC and an Assistant Research Professor at CIMNE. He has broad experience in numerical methods development implementation in the field of non-linear solid mechanics, fluid dynamics, particle methods like DEM or PFEM, remeshing techniques and FSI inside the open-source FE code Kratos-Multiphysics.

Currently working on several other European projects as a technical developer. Widely interested in discovering and knowing how the world works, with special interest in robotics and artificial intelligences.
Carlos de la Cruz Pérez
PhD in computational chemistry and theoretical modelling, IDENER
During 2018 through 2022, Carlos de la Cruz Perez completed a PhD at IMDEA Energy in computational chemistry and theoretical modelling. He searched for novel lead design models while working as a computational chemist at IMDEA Energy and the CSIC-CIB laboratories during his TFM. He published numerous studies in high-impact publications. They are all connected to the materials community and emphasize novel numerical procedures. He completed a research project at Denmark Technical University and published more studies. His contributions are consistently connected to quantitative structure activity properties and pattern-finding techniques using numbers. He has a master degree in big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. He is currently working on several European projects, both as a technical leader and coordinator for the modelling sections.
Fernando Salazar
Director of CIMNE-Madrid and Project Development Director of CIMNE
Fernando Salazar holds a MSc in Civil Engineering (UPM, 2002). Between 2003 and 2009, he worked as project manager in dam and hydraulic projects. He is working for CIMNE since 2009, where he is the current Director of CIMNE-Madrid and the Project Development Director of CIMNE. He obtained his PhD at the UPC in 2017, on the application of machine learning in dam safety assessment. In this field, he won the International Challenge organized by Verbund, the greatest hydropower company in Austria. He has been PI in several research projects involving the combined application of numerical methods and machine learning techniques in different fields of engineering. He is author of 25 papers in scientific journals.
