I'm Catedràtic d'Universitat  (Professor) at the Departament d'Enginyeria Civil i Ambiental (DECA), in the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). I teach Structural Mechanics and Continuum Mechanics and my research is concerned with numerical methods in engineering and applied sciences, with particular emphasis on finite element methods in fluid mechanics (although I'm open to other techniques and/or other problems).

Likewise, I collaborate with the International Center for Numerical methods in Engineering (CIMNE), a research center at the UPC. This has given me the opportunity to be in contact with "real life" problems which have very much influenced my research activity.
