Since 2012, he has been part of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UNESP Ilha Solteira campus, where he currently holds the position of Full Professor (since 2025). He obtained the academic title of Livre-Docente (Habilitation) in Mechanical Systems Dynamics from the University of São Paulo (UNESP) in 2015. He was a FAPESP Young Researcher (20122016), coordinator of the Undergraduate Program in Mechanical Engineering at UNESP (20152018), and coordinator of the Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering at UNESP/Ilha Solteira from June 2021 to March 2024. He has completed several short-term research stays as a visiting professor at institutions including Université de Liège (Belgium, 2013), Institut FEMTO-ST (France, 2014 and 2022), Arts et Métiers Paris (2017), Universidad Nacional de Cuyo Mendoza (Argentina, 2023), Universidade Lusófona Lisbon (2022 and 2023), and the EIPHI Graduate School Université Bourgogne-Franche-Comté (2022). In 2019, he undertook a sabbatical year as a visiting researcher at École Nationale Supérieure d'Arts et Métiers (Paris), with support from FAPESP. He currently serves as Associate Editor of the Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering in the area of Dynamics and Vibrations. His research interests include Dynamics, System Identification, Signal Processing, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), and Applied Mechanics, with an emphasis on hybrid methods combining data-driven approaches and physical modeling. He has coordinated and participated in numerous research projects funded by FAPESP, CNPq, CAPES, and FINEP. He has supervised 12 Ph.D. dissertations, 14 Master's theses, and over 40 undergraduate research projects. His former students hold prominent positions in both academia and industry.

Permanent monitoring of infrastructures, such as bridges and dams, is a need for developed societies, as they undergo a process of degradation that can be accelerated by external phenomena. In this way, structural health monitoring (SHM) has been used for detection, diagnosis, and prognosis of damage. The SHM concept has been applied under a statistical pattern recognition paradigm based …

A novel approach is proposed for structural health monitoring (SHM) using nanocomposites designed explicitly to detect torque variations in bolted joints and crack propagation in metallic structures. Two resistive nanocomposite sensors were developed and tested to correlate electrical resistance changes with the torque applied to bolted joints and crack growth. This allows for static meas…
The continuous monitoring of heat exchanger health in the field is crucial to ensure optimal performance and safety in industrial plant operations. In this context, various state diagnostic techniques are available in the literature, especially those utilizing information from installed sensors for control actions involving variables such as pressure, flow, and temperature. However, for m…
Heat exchangers are essential pieces of equipment for many industrial processes and, in general, must be monitored in the field with sensors in order to diagnose their operating status with safety and energy efficiency. However, it is vital to build numerical replicas from this data that communicate with actions control in the physical plant, allowing simulations in a virtual environment,…

The integration of active vibration control and real-time assessment of structural integrity has become increasingly important in reducing the impact that unwanted vibration and damage can have on a structure. As structural damage can be characterized by adverse changes in the structure's parameters, monitoring the system's input-output signals in real time can assist in detecting damage …
Delamination is typical damage in a laminate composite that must be detected and quantified prematurely. The key idea of this dissertation is to apply a co-Kriging procedure to quantify this damage. Kriging is already utilized to execute this kind of prognosis; however, using co-Kriging allows us to combine a small quantity of expensive data (from experimental tests or calibrated models) …
The study of vibrating elastic bodies plays a crucial role in the dynamic analysis of Engineering problems. For that, displacement patterns of vibrating systems, i.e., mode shapes, have shown great importance for assessing their motion behavior, whose modeling arises from differential equations. Symmetry methods assist the exact resolution of differential equations through analytical tran…

Fouling is one of the main factors degrading the performance of thermal systems, particularly boilers, heat exchangers, and piping networks. Monitoring such effects is typically carried out using plant control signals, with models developed through physics-based approaches or data-driven techniques. While the application of artificial intelligence has been extensively explored in the lite…
In addition to mitigating unwanted vibration in a structure, damage-tolerant active control (DTAC) seeks to provide appropriate performance even in cases where there is damage. Prior knowledge of the characteristics of the damage that may be imposed on the structure allows the design of controllers that take the effects of the damage into account, but this can be a very limiting assumptio…
This project aims to present a method for fault detection in heat exchangers based on monitoring temperature data that are measured and used in control processes in industrial environments. In this process, it is essential to have a numerical model as a digital replica that communicates with the process control. Bayesian calibration tools oriented by this data are a welcome way to carry o…
Delamination is a common type of damage in laminate composites that needs to be detected and quantified early. This dissertation's central theme is applying the co-Kriging method to quantify this damage. While Ordinary Kriging has been employed for such prognoses, co-kriging enables the integration of a limited amount of high-cost data (derived from experimental tests or calibrated models…
Assembled structures play a vital role in dynamic structural applications. However, the nonlinear interactions that occur in the joint interface are complex and challenging for modeling mainly because of the hysteretic effect usually generated in these spots. Therefore, some contributions still lacking in the literature to analyze the dynamic behavior and to predict the structural propert…
