Dr. George Oliveira Ainsworth Junior

e-mail: george.ainsworth@ufjf.br

 

Associated professor at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora. He got his degree in in Civil Engineering from UEFS, a master’s degree in civil engineering from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, and a doctorate in Civil Engineering from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. He has experience in the field of Civil Engineering, with an emphasis on numerical methods for differential equations, having worked on the following topics: solving eigenvalue problems discretized by the finite element method, modeling multiphysical problems, and modeling materials such as steel and concrete.
