Top School

Matteo Parsani is an Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics and Computational Sciences at KAUST with 15 years of experience developing high-order, self-adaptive algorithms and high-performance computing solutions for aerodynamic and aeroacoustic simulations. He leads the Advanced Algorithms and Simulations Lab (AANSLab), partnering with industry to optimize terrestrial and aerospace vehicle performance for energy efficiency and noise reduction. His work blends rigorous computational methods with selective machine learning to improve simulation accuracy, efficiency, and reliability in real-world engineering problems. Matteo’s background includes a PhD in Mechanical Engineering, NASA postdoctoral fellowship, and roles bridging academia and aerospace research, giving him deep domain expertise from code to flight tests. Beyond research, he is an advocate for people with disabilities and demonstrated remarkable resilience by hand-biking across Saudi Arabia—3,100+ km in 22 days—despite living with an incomplete spinal injury. He is based in Thuwal and uniquely combines hands-on computational science with practical industry impact and public advocacy.
