Biography

Antonio Carlo Bertolino, born in Cagliari (Italy) in 1992, is a Ph.D. student in Mechanical Engineering and Research assistant in Applied Mechanics at Politecnico di Torino. He got his bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering at Univerità degli Studi di Cagliari in 2014 and his master degree at Politecnico di Torino in 2016. His research activity is focused in the area of aerospace applications, such as flight control systems for fixed and rotary wing aircrafts (electro-hydraulic and electromechanical servosystems) and their prognostics. In particular, his main research topic is the high-fidelity dynamic modelling of the ball screw mechanism for EMA flight controls, in order to use the model as a virtual bench to inject artificial defects and study the best prognostic strategy for the component. He is a member of ASME since 2017.
