I'm Francesco, a geotechnical engineer from Lima (Peru) highly interested in numerical modeling, spatial variability, and soil behavior — particularly in mining geotechnics, like tailings dams and heap leach pads.
My core interest is geotechnical research through computational methods. I also deeply enjoy programming as a creative and technical hobby. I see code as a powerful companion in my work — not as a career path on its own.
Right now, I'm preparing for a PhD in Geotechnical Engineering and focusing on integrating modern programming tools into my research workflows.
- 📊 Modeling spatial variability in leached ore using SCPTu data and geostatistics.
- 🦀 Developing
conic, a Python library that uses Rust for exploring SCPTu profiles from CSV/XLSX files. - 📈 Generating anisotropic random fields for spatial modeling with Julia.
- Programming: Python and Rust (I like Fortran too!).
- Geotechnical software: FLAC2D, RS2, Slide2
- Topics: constitutive modeling, random fields, soil behavior, numerical simulation
Thanks for stopping by!
