This is the simplest post I will do, since I started in wordpress less than half an hour ago.

I am Alvaro Gavilán Rojas, a paraguayan civil engineer working on my PhD thesis at the Inria (National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology) in Rennes, France.

Here you will find posts about Julia code as it is part of my PhD journey.

I am working with Guided Wave based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) in periodic structures, so, you will find here some useful scripts containing FEM (Finite Element Method) implementation for 2D and 3D structural dynamics, WFEM (Wave FEM), ML (Machine Learning), CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks), and more.

Since I am working with model based SHM, I am heavily concerned about computational costs, for being able to implement real-time monitoring (which is intended with SHM). Large sparse arrays, complex non-Hermitian matrices and eigenproblem computations are some matters of concern, so, probably in some posts I will talk about that.

Hope you get useful information and insight, and feel free to contact me at alvaro.gavilan95@gmail.com .
