Currently I am head of Biomedical Department at CIMNE and CIMNE CARDIO-LAB. My main research area is linking computational medical image and finite elements methods to create virtual medical models.

My major challenge is to integrate my knowledge gained on computational medical image and computational methods into robust and fully reliable computer models and "in silico" environments that will help the development and testing of new therapies and better disease prediction and prevention tools, in healthcare.

I am working in the area of Virtual Physiological Human(VPH) looking for new opportunities in the biomedical Sector. I have great experience in national, international R&D projects (H2020, FP7, ITEA, ARTEMIS....) and within private companies.

International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering

Tue, 10 May 2016 11:44:46 +0200

The International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) is a research organization created in 1987 at the heart of the prestigious Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) as a partnership between the Government of Catalonia and UPC, in cooperation with UNESCO. The aim of CIMNE is the development of numerical methods and computational techniques for advancing knowledge and technology in engineering and applied sciences.

CIMNE’s headquarters are located at the heart of the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona. CIMNE has also premises at different buildings in several campus of the UPC. CIMNE has also offices in Spain (Madrid, Terrassa and Ibiza). In 2005 CIMNE started its international expansion and since then has created the following international branches: CIMNE Latinoamerica (Non-profit Foundation in Santa Fe, Argentina); CIMNE USA (Non-profit Corporation in Washington DC, USA); CIMNE Singapore (Non-profit Corporation in Singapore) and CIMNE Beijing (China).

CIMNE employs some 250 scientists and engineers who work in the different offices of CIMNE around the world. CIMNE has also established a network of 30 Classrooms in partnership with Universities in Spain and 11 Latin American countries.

The research and technology development (RTD) activities of CIMNE cover a wide spectrum of topics ranging from classical engineering fields such as civil, mechanic, environmental, naval, marine and offshore, food, telecommunication and bio-medical engineering, computer sciences and applied sciences such as material sciences bio-medicine, computational physics, nature, social and economic sciences and multimedia sciences, among others.

Over its history, CIMNE has taken part in over 2,000 RTD projects in cooperation with some 500 companies, universities and research centers worldwide.

Jordi is the director of the Building Energy and Environment, from CIMNE, since 2001. His background comes from the application of numerical methods for the analysis of air flows and thermal heat transfer in active building components and the urban environment. For the last years he has centred his work in modelling the energy performance of buildings, in the analysis of huge amount of data coming from smart meters, in the modelling of Building Integrated
Components and in analysing the user behaviour of tenants in residential buildings.
Although Jordi finished his PhD recently, he has accumulated more than 15 years of experience in collaborating with municipalities, building owners, energy companies and research organizations through national and international cooperative research projects. He
has participated in more than 30 EU funded projects.
Jordi is author of 20 publications in international scientific journals and congresses. He is one of the founders and member of the board of directors of the energy service company INERGY (www.inergybcn.com), promoted by CIMNE and RSM
Gassó. He is also founder and partner of the start up company Beedatanalytics (https://beedataanalytics.com/es/)
Jordi has a strong link with the University of Lleida where he obtained his PhD degree. He is presently collaborating with several research group from this University and has performed several training and master degree courses. Jordi acts also as representative of CIMNE-BEE Group in the following international research networks: E2B and INIVE. He is also one of the Spanish representatives within the AIVC and he is participating in the Annex 71 of the IEA.

MSc in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering by the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) and PhD in Civil Engineering by the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC).

Currently, I am full professor of shipbuilding technology at the Higher Technical School of Naval Architects and Offshore Engineers (ETSIN) of the Technical University of Madrid and the Deputy Director of Institutional Relations.

I conduct my research in collaboration with the Model Basin Research Group at ETSIN (CEHINAV) and the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE). My research career has focused on developing computational models for fluid-structure interaction analysis and their application to the design and verification of ships, platforms, and marine structures.

I am the author of more than 35 articles published in first-tier international journals, have presented over 80 papers at international conferences, and have participated in more than 25 European or international research projects.

Additionally, I have been the promoter and co-founder of Compass IS, a company specializing in engineering design, and Scipedia, the developer of the platforms Scipedia.com and BIM TeamUp.

I am right between Engineering and Software development.
Working at CIMNE since 2004, I have been involved and led research projects in a wide range of fields: harbours & waves, oil & gas drilling, aerodynamics, landslides, agriculture,... I developed a software for free surface flows (www.cimne.com/pfem/) and after that, one for particles (http://www.cimne.com/dem/), but I also found myself developing parts of standard CFD and structural (CSM) codes.
In these years I have become an experienced programmer mainly in Object Oriented languages (C++, Python) and also Matlab. Subversion or Git (preferably the second) are a must for the best team work.
As an Engineer, the goal of each project is my main concern, and software is just a handy tool.
The lectures on Theory of Finite Elements and structures given at the University since 2010 were a good complement to my practical work at CIMNE.
