José António Correia
José António Fonseca de Oliveira Correia, born 1984 in Peso da Régua, Portugal, is Researcher of Optics and Experimental Mechanics Laboratory (LOME) of INEGI (Portugal). He obtained the degrees BSc (2007) and MSc (2009) in Civil Engineering by the University of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro. He is specialist in steel and composite (steel and concrete) construction by the University of Coimbra in 2010. He is PhD in Civil Engineering by University of Porto in 2015. He is also co-author of more 10 papers in the most relevant scientific journals devoted to engineering materials and structures and 30 proceedings in international and national conferences, congresses and workshops. He is a member of scientific and professional organizations, such as Ordem dos Engenheiros, Associação Portuguesa de Construção Metálica e Mista (CMM), and Associação para a Conservação e Manutenção de Pontes (ASCP). His current research interests are: a) Behaviour to fatigue and fracture of materials and structures (steel and aluminium, riveted and bolted connections, pressure vessels, old steel bridges, wind turbine towers); b) Probabilistic fatigue modelling of metallic materials (including statistical evaluation, size-effect, cumulative damage, confounded data); c) Probabilistic design of glass structural elements; d) Mechanical behaviour of materials and wooden structures (connections and characterization of ancient structures).
