Prof. Saavedra Flores joined the Department of Civil Engineering at Santiago University in 2005. He earned his PhD in Civil Engineering in 2011 from Swansea University in the UK, where he also held the position of post-doctoral research officer from 2011 to 2013. In Chile and in the UK, he worked as a structural engineer in relevant engineering projects. He has been a member of the editorial board of Applied Mathematical Modelling since 2016, and also guest editor in Materials Today Communications and Buildings. He has published one book and more than one hundred scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals. His main research interests are multiscale computational mechanics with emphasis on the modelling of timber materials and structures. In 2016, he was awarded a FONDEQUIP project granted by  the Chilean National Agency for Research and Development to implement the largest seismic shaking table in South America. Between 2015 and 2014, Prof. Saavedra Flores was deputy director and between 2019-2023 Head of
