Andronikos Skiadopoulos

Bio

Andronikos Skiadopoulos is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University. His current research focuses on ductile fracture mechanics of structural steel under extreme conditions.

During his PhD at EPFL, he designed, validated, and patented a steel moment connection typology through coordinated experimental testing, detailed fracture-mechanics-informed finite element analyses, and system-level simulations.
His broader interests include the analysis and design of steel structures, fracture-critical infrastructure systems, and performance-based approaches to resilient structural design.

He holds a PhD from EPFL (2022), and a Diploma in Structural Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, NTUA (2016).
