The final results of the 2023 edition of the Competition for Doctoral Research Grants in All Scientific Domains, promoted by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT-MCTES), are now known.
In this most recent edition, the competition awarded a total of 1,488 research grants, including thesis proposals from five students in the Doctoral Programs in Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Engineering. They are:
- Douglas Serrati – “In-line and Off-line Inspection with Non-Destructive Testing for Metal Components Produced by Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM)”
- Igor Felice – “Development and evaluation of technological variants of the WAAM process applied to high-strength ferrous alloys”
- Mariana Peyroteo – “Estimating the Value of Digital Health Services: Multimorbidity Management in Primary Health Care in Portugal”
- Ana Martins - ''Human-like communication in Conversational Agents for Delivering Health Interventions after Cardiothoracic Surgery''
- Samruddha Kokare - "Towards sustainable Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM)" (under the MIT Portugal Program)
The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering congratulates our scholarship students, who will now develop their work plans at UNIDEMI – Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Research Unit.
