🎉 Michelangelo Garroni Awarded “Outstanding Paper Award” at EuroSimE 2026 !!

We are delighted to announce that Michelangelo Garroni has received the “Outstanding Paper Award” at the EuroSimE 2026 Conference, the 27th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multiphysics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems, held in Warsaw, April 19–22, 2026.

The awarded paper, entitled “High-Performance and Scalable DG-SEM Modeling of Large PMUT Arrays for Biomedical Imaging,” is authored by:

– Michelangelo G. Garroni (MOX, Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano)
– Omer M. O. Abdalla, Edoardo Moretti, Gianluca Massimino, Alberto Corigliano, Attilio Frangi (Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Politecnico di Milano)
– Nicola Parolini, Ilario Mazzieri, Paola F. Antonietti (MOX, Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano)
– Domenico Giusti (STMicroelectronics)
– Alessandro S. Savoia (Department of Industrial, Electronic and Mechanical Engineering, Roma Tre University)

The paper discusses Model Order Reduction (MOR) to represent pMUT’s dynamics as a combination of selected eigenmodes, drastically reducing computational complexity. It integrates the reduced model within the Discontinuous Galerkin Spectral Element Method for accurate wave propagation and acoustic coupling. The approach is implemented in a parallel HPC setting with domain decomposition, enabling efficient large-scale simulations with strong scalability. The approach is implemented in a parallel high-performance computing environment using domain decomposition, enabling efficient large-scale simulations with strong scalability

Michelangelo Garroni is currently enrolled in the Ph.D. program in Mathematical Models and Methods in Engineering at the Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano, where he conducts his research at the MOX Laboratory. Previously, he held a research fellowship at the MOX Laboratory, Department of Mathematics, within the PROUD project—funded by MISE and carried out in collaboration with the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.

Congratulations to Michelangelo and the entire research team on this prestigious achievement!
