Dr. Patricio Venegas-Aravena is a professor at Loyola University Andalusia and a highly accomplished researcher with a Doctor of Science in Engineering Degree from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and an M.Sc. in Geophysics from the University of Chile. His academic foundation also includes a B.Sc. in Physics from the University of Concepción. Dr. Venegas-Aravena\'s research is deeply focused on the mechanics of ruptures in solids, particularly the modeling of realistic heterogeneous ruptures that align with the statistical characteristics observed in actual data and focused in seismic events. This involves innovative approaches like incorporating heterogeneous distributions of residual energy on faults. A significant aspect of his work explores the impact of fault heterogeneities on ground motion (example of solids\' response to ruptures), with published studies on hypothetical rupture scenarios in the central Chilean subduction zone. His expertise extends to the fundamental processes of friction and the transport of energy within different systems, proposing a general friction law and a new principle in nature (known as Principium Luxuriæ) respectively. Dr. Venegas-Aravena has a robust publication record, with 17 articles in indexed journals (24 in total), 9 of which were published in the last three years, and 8 specifically focusing on friction and ruptures within the last two years. He also has three manuscripts currently under review and a published book chapter on multiscale dissipation and fault geometry. Complementing his research, Dr. Venegas-Aravena has participated in prestigious projects funded by Fondecyt and the FONDAP-ANID Center for Integrated Disaster Risk Management (CIGIDEN). His international experience includes a research internship at the Geoazur laboratory of the Université Côte d\'Azur in Valbonne, France. He is also committed to disseminating his research and fostering academic discourse. He has presented his findings and engaged in collaborative discussions at various conferences and workshops, sharing his insights in countries such as Mexico, the United States, Germany, Chile, and Italy. This international engagement underscores his dedication to advancing the field of rupture mechanics, seismology and multiscale physics on a global scale. From 2015 to 2021, Dr. Venegas-Aravena served as Sub-director and Researcher at the Cosmic Radiation and Geomagnetism Observatories at the University of Chile, where he oversaw research and development, managed data, and initiated instrumentation modernization. His commitment to academic growth extends to his role as an experienced educator, having taught both undergraduate and graduate courses at the University of Chile and the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile since 2014, sharing his knowledge in different areas such as Vibrations and Waves, Mechanics, Introduction to Space Physics, and General Geophysics. He also possesses strong programming skills, mainly in MATLAB, for computational modeling, statistical analysis, and data processing relevant to physical and seismological processes. Dr. Venegas-Aravena is fluent in Spanish and proficient in English, both spoken and written, and is actively involved in academic management and ethics workshops. His scientific contributions are well-recognized, with an h-index of 8 and over 160 citations, placing him within the top 5% of researchers on ResearchGate.net who first published in 2018.
