Dr. Pier Paolo Valentini is a Full Professor of Applied Mechanics at the University of Rome Tor Vergata and Subject Editor of Mechanism and Machine Theory. He chairs the Digital Synapsis laboratory. His research spans multibody dynamics, power transmissions, biomechanics, and virtual reality, with over 250 published papers.
The electrification process involving urban mobility vehicles is pushing research into developing efficient and durable transmissions. The transmission system has the crucial role of transforming the electrical energy produced by the electric machine into mechanical power, which is subsequently delivered to the wheels through a gear reduction system.
