Alberto Carpinteri (born 23 December 1952) is an Italian, now he is a chair professor of Shantou University, China.
Alberto Carpinteri is professor in science of construction, Chair Professor at the Shantou University - College of Engineering and former professor at the Polytechnic University of Turin. Alberto Carpinteri was also director of the National Institute of Metrological Research (2011-2013), [1] member of the New York Academy of Sciences and President of many scientific institutions as the International Congress on Fracture, ICF (2009-2013), [2] the European Structural Integrity Society, ESIS (2002-2006), [3] the International Association of Fracture Mechanics for Concrete and Concrete Structures, the IA-FraMCoS (2004-2007), [4] the Italian Group for Fracture (1998-2005). [5]
Carpinteri was also member of the executive committees of the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, IUTAM (2004-2012) and the Society for Experimental Mechanichs, SEM (2012-2014). He was also Editor-in-Chief of the Italian magazine "Meccanica".
He is mainly known [6] for his contribution in the study of piezonuclear fission, which is the purported theory that "compressing solids can provoke nucleus-splitting reactions without emitting gamma-rays or producing nuclear waste". [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]
In 2013 INRiM was set in temporary receivership and Carpinteri dismissed after the resignation of two-thirds of the board of directors in objection of Carpinteri's support in the purported theory of piezonuclear fission. [12] [13]
Alberto Carpinteri conducted many lectures worldwide [14] [15] and published books and academic papers [16] [17] on the piezonuclear theory. On the same topic Carpinteri is also currently contributing to the "Clean Energy from Hydrogen-Metal Systems" project financed by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 plan. [18] [19]
