Kia Ora! I am

Dr Rino (Ruggiero) Lovreglio

I am a Professor in Digital Built Environment and Fire Engineering at Massey University (NZ) and a Rutherford Discovery Fellow for Royal Society Te Apārangi (NZ).​ My research and teaching focus on human behavior in disasters, evacuation modelling/simulations and safety training using emerging technologies: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Building Information Modeling (BIM). 

I can help your business with science-based solutions:
- Evacuation simulations using Pathfinder or more customised modelling solutions;
- Evacuation modelling courses;
- AI upskilling and implementations;
- Custumized VR and AR safety training solutions.

A little about myself

I hold a PhD from Scuola Interpolitecnica di Dottorato, Politecnico di Bari, Politecnico di Milano and Politecnico di Torino (Italy). My studies focus on Human Behaviour in Disasters, Pedestrian Evacuations and Large Scale Evacuations.

​I am an Associate Editor for Safety Science (Elsevier) and Fire Technology (Springer). I am member of the Editorial Board of Fire Safety Journal (Elsevier), Virtual Reality (Springer) and Journal of Safety Science and Resilience (Elsevier). I represent New Zealand in the ISO working group in Fire Safety Engineering (ISO/TC92/SC4/WG11).

I am a reviewer for many Scientific Journals and international funding agencies including the National Science Foundation (USA) and the Research Grants Council of Hong Kong (check my CV page)

​I have published over 100 scholarly outputs, including over 100 journal articles and a letter to Science (check my publication page).
​
I am the recipient of the 2022 5 under 35 SFPE award and the 2020 Massey Research Medal - Early Career and the 2020 College of Science Research Award - Early Career. Since 2024, I am on Wikipedia too: wiki/Ruggiero_Lovreglio
