Dr. Silvio Simani received his Laurea degree (cum laude) in Electronic Engineering from the Department of Engineering at the University of Ferrara, Italy, in 1996, and was awarded the Ph.D. in Information Science (Automatic Control) at the Department of Engineering of the University of Ferrara and Modena, Italy, in 2000. Since February 2002 he has been Assistant Professor at the Department of Engineering of the University of Ferrara. He has published about 240 refereed journal and conference papers, several book’s chapters, and 3 monographs. His research interests include fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control of linear and nonlinear dynamic processes, system modelling, identification and data analysis, linear and nonlinear filtering techniques, fuzzy logic and neural networks for modelling and control, as well as the interaction issues among identification, fault diagnosis, and fault tolerant control. Saverio Farsoni was born in Mirandola (MO, Italy) in 1987. In 2012 He graduated (cum laude) in Informatics and Automation Engineering at the University of Ferrara with a M. Sc. thesis on simulations in bio–medical environments. Since 2013 he has been PhD student in Engineering Science and, together with his supervisor, Dr. Simani, he works on control systems, fuzzy logic, modelling and identification problems. In particular, his researches deal with fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control for eolic plants, and he published some conference papers about these issues
