I’m truly humbled and honored to receive the 2022 Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) Person of the Year Award from SHM: An International Journal. I also feel grateful to receive this award at the 10th European Workshop on SHM (EWSHM) held at my alma mater @unipa_it 🙏
Nuclear innovation isn't just about energy.
From next-generation reactors to advanced technologies for fuel storage systems, researchers at the @CockrellSchool are rethinking nuclear safety technology from the ground up: utex.as/4x7wsUN

Fun day in the lab! We hosted our first CE382H/CE377 (NDE & SHM) lab demo @ut_caee Students moved from theory to hands-on ultrasonic testing. Excited to have undergrads learning alongside grad students, building the next generation early.
Today we held the first group meeting of the SSRL @ut_caee for the new academic year, and also celebrated a special milestone: 10 years at UT Austin! It was wonderful to welcome our new members and to hear from our current team as they shared progress on ongoing projects.
New PaperAlert!!

Dear Friends and Colleagues, I am excited to invite you to partecipate in the special session I am organizing at the 15th IWSHM, which will take place September 9-11, 2025 at Stanford University, CA, USA. I look forward to seeing you there! #SHM #NDE linkedin.com/posts/salvatore…
Today, I made “cannolo,” a traditional Sicilian dessert. The key ingredient is sheep ricotta, which can be quite challenging to find in the US, as cow ricotta is typically more common. A big thanks to Lira Rossa for making this special ingredient available in #ATX.
