Ricardo De Medeiros
Mechanical Engineering Department, Center of Technological Sciences · Santa Catarina State University - UDESC
Biography
He has experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering, with an emphasis on aeronautical structures in composite materials, as well as in the mechanics and dynamics of solid, elastic, and plastic bodies. His main research topics include the development of a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system, NDT methods applied to SHM systems, theoretical and experimental studies of smart material structures, determination of effective coefficients, bonded joints, uncertainties associated with the manufacturing process, finite element analysis, solid mechanics, and methodologies for vibration reduction/isolation. He develops research projects and collaborations with Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium), the University of Porto (Portugal), the University of Havana (Cuba), the Universidad Tecnológica Metropolitana (Chile), and the University of Bologna (Italy).
Education
He holds a degree in Industrial Mechanical Engineering from the Regional Integrated University of Alto Uruguai and the Missions - URI (2008). He earned a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering, with an emphasis on aeronautical structures, from the São Carlos School of Engineering, University of São Paulo - EESC/USP (2012). He obtained a Ph.D. under a dual-degree program in Mechanical Engineering, with an emphasis on aeronautical structures, from the São Carlos School of Engineering, University of São Paulo - EESC/USP, and in Engineering Science from the Faculty of Engineering Science, Ka...
