Curriculum Vitae of Daniele Davino, Prof. Eng. Ph.D.

Daniele Davino received the 5 years degree in Electronic Engineering in 1997 at the University Federico II of Napoli, Italy with a 110/110 cum laude degree. The graduation thesis was made at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland, with a “technical student” one year grant, on the design, numerical and experimental characterization of a RF resonant cavity study for CLIC accelerator system.

In December 2000 he received the doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering, at the University Federico II of Napoli, Italy, with a thesis on the proof of principle of a compact medical accelerator (LIBO) for the cure of the cancer, in the framework of a collaboration among the INFN, the TERA foundation of Prof. Amaldi, CERN and University of Naples. He was in charge of the electromagnetic modeling of the accelerating cavities, the numerical simulation of them and the experimental laboratory verification.

The first prototype of the accelerator was successfully installed and tested at CERN in 2001 (http://cds.cern.ch/journal/CERNBulletin/2001/04/News%20Articles/44695?ln=en)

From 2001 to 2002 he was at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, NY USA, as research associate, responsible of the analysis and design of electromagnetic devices for the accumulation ring of the Spallation Neutron Source (https://neutrons.ornl.gov/sns), a $4billion project. He developed an innovative model of the extraction kicker magnets, helping to find the solution of a sever problem for the machine operation (doi:10.1103/PhysRevSTAB.14.074401). His activity included both experimental measurements and modeling aspects.

From 2002 to 2004 he was research associate, from 2005 full time researcher, and from 2016 Associate Professor at the Engineering Department of University of Sannio in Benevento, Italy. About teaching activities, he is a regular lecturer of "Principle of Electric Engineering elements" and "Electromechanical conversion principles" for three and five years degree courses. He has been supervisor of several 3 and 5-years degree thesis, research grants of young researchers, PhD students and researchers, working on the design and characterization of devices for energy harvesting or sensing or actuation with smart materials as magnetostrictives.

He is co-author of more than 100 scientific publications, with more than 60 regular papers on international journals.

He is reviewer for several journals (among them IEEE Trans on Magnetics, IEEE Trans on Mechatronics, IEEE Trans on Industrial Electronics, IEEE Trans on Instrumentation and Measurements, J. of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, Physica-B Condensed Matter, J. of Applied Physics, Sensors and Actuators A, Smart Materials and Structures, Materials and Design, Scientific Reports).

He is guest editors of the following special issues:
