Anna Chiaradonna is Assistant Professor in Geotechnical Engineering at the Department of Civil, Construction-Architectural and Environmental Engineering of the University of L'Aquila, Italy, since October 2023 where she previously held the position of Research Assistant (2019-2023). She is the teacher in charge of the “Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering” course for master students in Civil Engineering since 2020, and “Slope Stability’ course for master students in Civil and Environmental Engineering since 2024. She received her PhD and MS degrees from the University of Napoli Federico II. Her research focuses on numerically and experimentally studying seismic soil response and ground failure due to earthquake-induced liquefaction and its mitigation. Her work on the prediction of excess pore pressure with different approaches in the assessment of liquefaction triggering and consequences on the built environment has been developed during the participation to several numerical benchmarks and international projects funded from the National Research Council, European H2020, Italian Ministry of University and Research and Fulbright Research Program. She is member of the Italian Geotechnical Society (AGI) and the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). She is also Corresponding Member of the ISSMGE Technical Committee TC203 Earthquake.
