Alireza Akhavan-Safar is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management (INEGI). He earned his Ph.D. in 2017 in the field of adhesive joints. His postdoctoral research focuses primarily on the durability (hygrothermal ageing and fatigue) of bonded joints both numerically and experimentally. The investigation of the mechanical response of adhesive joints from the fracture mechanics point of view is also part of his research. Eduardo A. S. Marques is Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management (INEGI) and guest lecturer at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP). He obtained his Ph D in the area of structural adhesive bonding for aerospace applications at FEUP in 2016 and now studies the effect of high strain rates, extreme temperature and high relative humidity on the behaviour of various materials and bonded structures. Ricardo J. C. Carbas is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Advanced Joining Processes unit, part of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management (INEGI). He obtained his Ph D in functionally graded bonded joints from the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto in 2013 and regularly carries out consultancy work for national and international companies. Lucas F. M. da Silva is Full Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP) and editor-in-chief of The Journal of Adhesion. He leads the Advanced Joining Processes Unit (AJPU) of INEGI.
