Rekatsinas Christoforos

Staff Researcher Scientist

Christoforos Rekatsinas holds a Diploma in Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering (2010) and a Ph.D. (2016) from the University of Patras, specializing in the computational mechanics of composite and smart materials. Since January 2023, he has been at the Institute of Informatics & Telecommunications of NCSR Demokritos. Now is a Staff Research Scientist and co-founder of INSANE team. His research emphasizes the optimization and machine learning-driven damage identification of composite structures through closed-loop computational program interfaces, as well as the development of knowledge-informed surrogate models using Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) and Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (Neural ODEs). Prior to this, he gained seven years of technical and managerial experience as a post-doctoral researcher in the Department of Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Patras, contributing to European (CleanSky, FP7) and Greek (Research – Create – Innovate) research projects.
