Prof. Dr. Diogo Ribeiro Polytechnic of Porto, Portugal Diogo Ribeiro is Adjunct Professor at Polytechnic of Porto – School of Engineering (ISEP-IPP) and holds a Bachelor in Civil Engineering (2002), a Master in Structural Engineering (2005) and a PhD in Civil Engineering (2012), all from the University of Porto. He is Director of the Bachelor course in Civil Engineering of ISEP (since 2014) and Director of the Postgraduate Programs in BIM Coordination (since 2019) and Prefabrication in Concrete (since 2020). He is a regular invited teacher on Civil Engineering master and postgraduate courses on University of São Paulo (Brazil) and Federal University of Ouro Preto (Brazil). He is also specialist in Metrology by the Portuguese Order of Chartered Engineers (2018) and Integrated Member of the Institute of R&D in Structures and Construction (CONSTRUCT). His main research interests are related to remote inspection, computer vision, artificial intelligence, automatic calculation of structures, Building Information Modeling (BIM), digital construction, digital railways, railway infrastructures, structural testing and experimentation, model updating and validation, and damage identification. Diogo Ribeiro was coordinator or researcher in more than 20 R&D projects funded by the industry, FCT and EU programs in the field of railway infrastructures and digital construction. Recently, he was co-Editor of the Springer Books "Industry 4.0 for the Built Environment Methodologies, Technologies and Skills" and "Structural Health Monitoring Based on Data Science Techniques”, as well as main Editor of the Springer Book Series “Digital Innovations in Architecture, Engineering and Construction”. He was visiting researcher at Bauhaus Universität Weimar (Germany) and University California San Diego (UCSD) and was awarded with a Fulbright Grant for doctoral researchers/teachers by Fundação Luso-Americana and FCT (2016).

 

Prof. Dr. Daniel V. Oliveira University of Minho, Portugal Daniel V. Oliveira, Portuguese, has a Bachelor degree (5-years duration, 1993) and a Master degree (2-years duration, 1996) in Civil Engineering by University of Porto, and a PhD Degree (2003) in Civil Engineering by University of Minho. Currently, he is Associate Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering of University of Minho. His main research interests are related to the experimental and numerical analysis of traditional and heritage masonry structures, earthquake engineering, repair and strengthening of masonry, earthen construction, vernacular stone heritage, risk analysis and durability. Daniel Oliveira has been involved in more than 40 research projects in the field of masonry, funded on a competitive basis, carrying out coordination tasks in 7 international and 5 national projects. In particular, he has been the principal investigator of the HeritageCare project, and the UMinho local coordinator of NIKER and OPHERA projects, funded by the European Commission. He supervised 5 post-Doc students, 30 PhD students and 90 MSc students, from Portuguese and international universities. He is author of more than 300 technical and scientific publications about masonry (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8547-3805), currently holding a Scopus h-index of 40. He worked in 5 RILEM committees as researcher (being the Secretary in two of them), dealing with the performance of masonry and earthen constructions. Daniel Oliveira is Deputy Coordinator of the international Master course in Structural Analysis of Monuments and Historical Constructions (SAHC, www.msc-sahc.org), coordinated by University of Minho and funded by the European Commission as Erasmus Mundus Master Course for a period of 10 consecutive years, award winner of the “EU Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards 2017”. From 2017 to 2019, Daniel Oliveira was the President of the School Council of the School of Engineering, University of Minho, the body in charge of the government and strategic decisions of the School of Engineering.

Prof. Dr. Clara Pimenta do Vale University of Porto, Portugal Clara Pimenta do Vale (1967) is an Architect from the University of Porto (1991) who specialised in building physics and Portuguese 20th-century construction history. She holds an MSc in Building Construction from the Faculty of Engineering (1999) and a PhD in Architecture (2012). Currently, she is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Architecture, a member of the FAUP Executive Board, a Deputy Director of CEFA - Centre of Studies of the Faculty of Architecture, and an Integrated Researcher of CEAU - Centre of Studies of Architecture and Urbanism, member of the following groups DFL- Digital Fabrication Lab and PACT- Architectural Heritage of the City and the Territory [lines ARAPE - Actions of Architectural Rehabilitation of the Built Heritage and EHC - Studies in the History of Construction which she coordinates]. Her research focus includes Construction History (from a learning perspective to respond to current challenges such as heritage conservation, building rehabilitation, sustainability, or climate change), Vernacular Architecture (proximity to local, natural, regenerative materials, and the rational use of resources), the study of building materials from a historical perspective (cork, natural cement, earth, wood, ceramics), and new technologies applied to the construction and rehabilitation of the built heritage (photogrammetry, laser scanning, thermography, modelling, digital fabrication).

Prof. Dr. Aires Camoes University of Minho, Portugal Dr. Aires Camoes, associate professor of the Department of Civil Engineering of Minho University and Director of Materials of Construction Laboratory. His research interests include eco-efficient construction materials, namely eco-efficient concrete, earth construction, mineral admixtures for cementitious materials, high performance concrete and durability of concrete structures.
