from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Angelo Marcello Anile (born January 3, 1948 in Santa Maria di Licodia , † November 16, 2007 in Catania ) was an Italian theoretical physicist and applied mathematician. He was a professor of mathematical physics at the University of Catania .

Life

Anile obtained his Laureate Degree in Pisa in 1970 (University and Scuola Normale Superiore). In addition to mathematics, he also studied astrophysics with Bruno Bertotti and received his doctorate in cosmology in 1974 with Dennis Sciama in Oxford (Geometrical Optics and Radiative Transfer in Irregular Universes). In 1980 he won a chair competition in mathematical physics and became a professor in Catania.

He dealt with relativistic hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics with applications in astrophysics, general relativity and cosmology, geometric optics, charge transport in semiconductors and mathematical modeling of semiconductor circuits and fuzzy logic.

In 1981 he received the Bartolozzi Prize .

The European Consortium for Industrial Mathematics (ECMI) awards him a prize in his honor.
