About

Miguel Costas Piñó joined CASA in January 2017. He earned his PhD at the University of A Coruña (Spain) in January 2016 with his thesis Crashworthiness analysis and design optimization of hybrid impact energy absorbers, being awarded the Cum Laude and international distinctions, and the extraordinary doctorate award.

In 2011, he graduated with a Master of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of A Coruña, with specialization in Structural Engineering. From 2011 to 2016, he worked at the Group of Structural Mechanics at the University of A Coruña, where he took his PhD and collaborated in several industrial and construction projects.

His research topics include computational and experimental solid mechanics, structural optimization, metal plasticity, crashworthiness and ballistic penetration.

He is also a professional pianist graduated in 2005 from the Conservatory of Santiago de Compostela (Spain), and he performs several times every year as a soloist or a collaborative artist. In Norway, he collaborates as an accompanist at TKK and at the Department of Music (NTNU).
