Welcome to the webpage of Model reduction and CFD: a workshop to celebrate the contributions of the actual AI (Angelo Iollo) for his 60th birthday. This workshop will be held at BCAM in Bilbao (Spain) from 28/09/26 to 1/10/26.
Angelo Iollo is Professeur des Universités de classe exceptionnelle (Distinguished Full Professor) in Applied Mathematics at the University of Bordeaux and a senior resercher at INRIA, France’s national institute for research in digital sciences and technology. He leads the MONHADE research team (previously Memphis research team), devoted to advance mathematical and computational modeling of physical systems.
After earning his degree and PhD in Aerospace Engineering through a joint program between the Politecnico di Torino (Italy) and the NASA Langley Research Center (Virginia, USA), he joined INRIA in France and became Full Professor at the University of Bordeaux in 2004, where he developed a large international network. Angelo Iollo has also been part of entrepreneurial initiatives, contributing to the establishment of the startup Nurea, which originated from the Memphis project team, and of Optimad Engineering.
His scientific work spans both high-fidelity full-order models, which aim at accurately reproducing complex physical phenomena, and reduced-order models (ROMs), which achieve similar predictive power with drastically lower computational cost. His research bridges physics-based simulations and data-driven approaches, contributing to advances in nonlinear interpolation, multi-physics coupling and efficient hierarchical mesh schemes.
