PhD in mechanical engineering from the Federal University of Paraíba – UFPB, master and graduate in mechanical engineering from the Federal University of Campina Grande – UFCG. I developed my research at the Integrity and Inspection Laboratory (Labii – UFPB) with the collaboration of the Vibration and Instrumentation Laboratory (LVI – UFCG) and the Multidisciplinary Laboratory of Active Materials and Structures (LaMMEA – UFCG), working in the area of structural integrity, analysis and control of vibrations in civil structures and mechanical systems, with an emphasis on advanced and intelligent materials. I am currently an adjunct professor at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora – UFJF, working in the Department of Mechanical Engineering – MEC, linked to the Faculty of Engineering..

Research Projects

• 2022 – Current: Control of mechanical systems incorporating superelastic SMA elements into vibration attenuation devices.

Description: CNPq Call No. 04/2021 – Research Productivity Grants. The project aims to consolidate studies and research in the field of engineering: mechanical, civil and materials, aiming at designing concepts and analyzing the dynamic behavior of devices that allow controlling and/or attenuating vibrations, when incorporated into mechanical systems.

Funder: National Council for Scientific and Technological Development-CNPq.

• 2022 – Current: Development and analysis of the dynamic behavior of systems incorporating LMF attenuating elements in mechanical and structural devices for vibration attenuation.

Description: The research project was approved in Notice 09/2021 in the CNPq-Fapesq Universal agreement (Value R$ 32 thousand reais), and aims to continue the studies underway in the Vibration and Instrumentation Laboratory of the UFCG Mechanical Engineering Academic Unit , aiming to consolidate the research line Analysis and design of Thermomechanical Systems (AST), of the Postgraduate Program in Mechanical Engineering (PPGEM).

Funder: Research Support Foundation of the State of Paraíba-FAPESQ.

• 2023 – Current: Structural and mechanical analysis for extreme wind speed conditions in a photovoltaic solar tracker system.

Description: The aim of the project is to produce a detailed study that validates the mechanical structure of the photovoltaic solar tracker considering the most critical loads. The analysis will be based on analytical equations and computer simulation in Ansys Inc Software (Finite Element Method), conditioning the structure in the most critical wind speed situations, supporting against static and dynamic failures of aeroelastic effects.
