CV Lattes



Birthplace: Brazil

Graduation at Engenharia Mecânica Plena from Fundação Educacional Inaciana Padre Sabóia de Medeiros (1992), master's at Mechanical Engineering from Universidade de São Paulo (2002) and doctorate at Mechanical Engineering from Universidade de São Paulo (2006).Currently, I work with consultancy in Static Equipment (structural design, engineering and outsourcing) for the oil gas, chemical and food industries. Structural analysis for the mining, material handling and aerospace industries and Autodesk Inventor Nastran applications for finite element analysis.Professional Mechanical Engineer with Masters and PhD in Mechanical Design with +25 years experience in various industries in Brazil. Static Equipment Engineer with experience in technical coordination of engineering and calculation of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, process towers (ASME Section VIII Div.1 and Div.2) and storage tanks (API-650, API-620, NBR-7821 and AWWA D100); and structural integrity assessment for fitness-for-service (API-579/ASME FFS-1). Structural Analysis Engineer of various equipment, in addition to static equipment, I work with experience in the analysis of mechanical structures, especially vibrating screens, road implements, lifting devices, cranes, autoclaves, aerospace structures, shafts for elevators and offshore accommodation modules. Application Engineer with experience in implementation and training in Autodesk Inventor NASTRAN finite element analysis software. RD Engineer with participation in the development of the mechanical architecture of the focal plane and the focal adjustment system of the MUX camera of the CBERS 34 satellite and in the structural and kinematic analysis of a lateral direction system of a mirror for optical imagers for space use. Experience in parameterization of static equipment using "top-down" modeling with skeleton concept using Autodesk Inventor software, being parameterized: vertical, horizontal and inclined pressure vessels, process towers, hydraulic units and hydraulic cylinders applied to hydromechanics.At FAPESP I was a Doctoral Scholar (Process 2003/02208-6), researcher level III PE-III (Process 2014/13180-0), RD project coordinator for the PIPE program (Process 2013/50870-1) and structural analysis consultant (Process OPTSD-108 / FAPESP 201650143-0).
