Prof. Dr. Oscar Altuzarra is Full Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Bilbao School of Engineering, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, Spain. He is a member of the Technical Committees on Computational Kinematics and Robotics in IFToMM, member of ASME, and author of more than 150 scientific publications. His fundamental research work focuses now on the kinematics of continuum parallel manipulators. His past research has varied from computational models to solve complex mechanical problems to analytical and numerical solutions of classical kinematics and singularities in parallel kinematic machines. He is now the Head of the COMPMECH Research Group of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU).
