Ludovico Dassi is a Ph.D. student in Mechanical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, specializing in Rotordynamics and Diagnostics of rotating machines. Current research focuses on developing advanced models to predict instability conditions in large gas turbines used for power generation. This work is supported by a PNRR grant from the European Community and Ansaldo Energia S.p.A., which includes a six-month R&D stage with Ansaldo Energia in Genova and Baden.

In addition to research activities, serves as a teaching assistant for the bachelor’s course "Mechanics of Vibrations" held in English language, and he is a visiting Ph.D. student at Texas A&M University, collaborating with the Turbomachinery Laboratory.

Holding a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, with a focus on Turbomachinery and Internal Combustion Engines, and having completed an Erasmus+ exchange at INSA Lyon. Professional background includes mechanical design for the Formula SAE competition and research on bioinspired metal 3D printing for hydrodynamic bearings. Fluent in Italian, English, and French.

Several scientific articles have been published, and active participation in international conferences, such as the ASME Turbo Expo, highlights significant contributions to the field.
