Claytex
Alessandro Picarelli has extensive work experience in the engineering field. Their most recent role was as the Engineering Director at Claytex, where they were responsible for customer projects and requirements, as well as guiding the application of expertise and tools in industries such as off highway machinery and buildings thermal management. Prior to this, they served as the Chief Engineer and Engineering Project Manager at Claytex, where they managed internal and external engineering projects and promoted company activities at engineering shows and conferences. Alessandro also worked as a Project Engineer at Claytex, where they focused on modelling and simulation of dynamic systems using Dymola and Modelica, as well as engine and transmission model and library development.
Before joining Claytex, Alessandro owned their own business called Alessandro Picarelli Engineering, where they focused on engine building and restoration for classic and modern Maserati, Ferrari, and Alfa Romeo vehicles. Alessandro also worked at WMG, Inc as a Project Engineer, specializing in systems engineering and simulation of hybrid vehicles. Additionally, they worked as a Powertrain strategist at Jaguar Land Rover and as an Engine builder at Motor A.G.
Overall, Alessandro Picarelli has a diverse range of experience in various aspects of engineering, including project management, simulation, and systems integration.
Alessandro Picarelli began their education at St Georges in 1985 and completed their studies there in 1997. Alessandro then enrolled at the University of Warwick in 1997 and pursued a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, which they completed in 2000. Alessandro continued their education at the same university and obtained a Master of Science degree in Advanced Mechanical Engineering in 2001.

Claytex
Systems Engineering is a broad topic and here at Claytex we focus on the modelling and simulation of the system to understand it's behaviour and dynamics. Our work covers multiple industries and domains such as vehicle dynamics, energy management of buildings, flight dynamics of drones, thermal management and extends into the virtual testing of ADAS and autonomous vehicles with physics based sensor models. We help our customers understand their designs to make better products, faster. We are a consultancy, software developer, distributor and training provider. We develop simulation solutions using the open standards of Modelica, FMI, OpenSCENARIO and OpenDRIVE; distribute systems engineering solutions from Dassault Systemes, rFpro and specialist Modelica library developers. Our portfolio of tools includes Dymola, Reqtify, rFpro as well as our own software products including the VeSyMA suite of solutions. We also build bespoke simulation tools for specialist applications. We are active in a number of industries including Automotive, Aerospace, Defence and Energy sectors. Claytex has a number of customers in Motorsport competing in Formula 1, NASCAR and Indycar using solutions developed by us. These teams are using our solutions to model the whole car including the engine, powertrain, and chassis systems and they are deploying these into offline simulation, lapsim applications and driver-in-the-loop simulators. More recently we have been working on the development of simulation solutions to enable the virtual testing, development and training of autonomous vehicles and ADAS features. These solutions are built around rFpro with sensor models and tools for scenario based testing that are developed by Claytex. We also develop Modelica libraries and FMI based solutions. Our range of Modelica application libraries for Dymola are focused on ground and air vehicle simulation. We utilise the FMI standard to enable models to be easily shared.
