I have a Bachelor's degree (2002) and a Master's degree (2005) from UNESP/Ilha Solteira and a PhD from UNICAMP (2008), all in Mechanical Engineering. During my PhD, I was a scholarship holder of EGIDE/France in a project funded by the Centre National d'Études Spatiales (CNES/France) for a research sandwich internship conducted in 2007 at the Institut FEMTO-ST of the Université de Franche-Comté (Besançon, France). From 03/2008 to 02/2012, I worked as a lecturer at the State University of West Paraná, Campus of Foz do Iguaçu. In February 2012, I joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UNESP - Campus of Ilha Solteira, where I currently hold the position of Associate Professor III and am the current Coordinator of the Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering at UNESP/Ilha Solteira. At UNESP, I obtained the academic title of Livre Docente in Dynamics of Mechanical Systems in 2015. I was also a Young Researcher of FAPESP between 2012 and 2016 and Coordinator of the Undergraduate Course in Mechanical Engineering at UNESP from 2015 to 2018. I was a visiting researcher, with a FAPESP scholarship, at École Nationale Supérieure d'Arts et Métiers in Paris during a sabbatical year in 2019. I have also conducted short-term research internships as a visiting researcher at Université de Liège (Belgium) in 2013, at Arts et Métiers in Paris in 2017, at the Institut FEMTO-ST in Besançon (France) in 2014 and 2022, as a guest professor at the EIPHI Graduate School of the University of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, and at the Universidade Lusófona de Lisboa in 2022. Since 2020, I have been an Associate Editor of the Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering in the area of Dynamics and Vibrations. I have been working on the development of new methods for signal and system processing, identification and analysis, focusing on structural and applied mechanical health monitoring. I have coordinated and participated in several research projects funded by major Brazilian agencies such as FAPESP, CNPq, Capes and FINEP. I have also been involved in training human resources for research, development, and innovation in engineering, having already supervised 10 PhD theses, 13 Master's dissertations, and more than 30 undergraduate students who have occupied prominent positions in industry and academia.

Many points are still open in the literature for the detection and quantification of damage in structures assembled by bolted joints. The most challenging to overcome is to represent the nonlinear damping and hysteresis effect adequately using reduced models robust to uncertainties. The present project aims to introduce new approaches based on data-driven identification using Gaussian Pro…

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 …
Typically, the engineers who perform inspections in structures are not the same as those that design them. Consequently, the model-based approaches are limited for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) due to the high cost associated with obtaining an adequate model. On the other hand, it is fundamental to have a model to reach a higher hierarchy in SHM procedures. Thus, this Ph.D. project i…

Most structural connections are made with bolted joints, aiming to guarantee structural stability, secure connection, and even introduce important global damping mechanisms in the structural dynamics involving nonlinear hysteresis phenomena. However, for the design properties to be maintained, a predetermined tightening torque must be maintained. Unfortunately, the dynamic structural dema…
Many points are still open in the literature for the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) in structures assembled by bolted joints. Among them, it stands out obtaining robust metrics that correlate the loss of tightening torque with the variation of the hysteretic damping effects of the structure due to local changes on the friction force between the contact surfaces. It becomes even more c…
The detection of incipient damages in structures of composite material has a strong practical appeal for application in the aerospace and aeronautics industries since the excellent resistance/stiffness/weight ratios have made this type of material increasingly used in new aircraft. However, its structural characteristics and possibilities of having damages initiated by low intensity impac…

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…
Baseline-free algorithms are already familiar for applications in structural health monitoring(SHM) exploring detection and location of damages in composite structures, mainly based on measurements of active and sensing piezoelectric patches receiving guided waves where baseline data is unavailable. However, to reach a high level of SHM's hierarchy, for example, to quantify the level of d…
This work intends to develop and test a new approach to perform damage detection and prognosis in composite structures with piezoelectric elements bonded based on probabilistic extrapolation of the coefficients of linear and/or nonlinear autoregressive models identified by using guided waves and non-resonant Lamb wave.
