Visit from Kvadraturen skolesenter

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Today about 30 students from a local high school visit UiA and got insight and demonstration from PhD student Sondre Sanden Tørdal of the latest work in the SFI Offshore Mechatronics project. A lot of filming went on while he did a demonstration in UiAs Motion Lab. Recruiting to engineering and science is also a focus in the project, and a lot of future students got a taste of the possibilities today.

Researcher WP2.4

Thiago Gabriel Monteiro started as a Ph.D. candidate at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU, Ålesund) under WP3.4 on March 2017 with Professor Houxiang Zhang as supervisor. He received the B.Sc. degree in naval architecture and maritime engineering from the University of São Paulo (USP, São Paulo), in 2013 and the M.Sc degree in Ship Design from the NTNU Ålesund, in 2016. He spent 6 months as a research assistant at NTNU Ålesund between his graduation and the beginning of his Ph.D. studies.

In the SFI OM he will be working on WP3.4 with a focus on fatigue detection in maritime operators using physiological sensors.

Luis M. Lopez-Ramos received the B.Sc. degree in telecommunications engineering in 2010 from King Juan Carlos University (URJC), Madrid, Spain; and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in multimedia and communications in 2012 and 2016, respectively, from URJC and Carlos III University of Madrid, Madrid, Spain. During the Fall semesters of 2013 and 2014, he was a visiting scholar at the Dept. of Electrical Engineering, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis.

Since 2010 he has been carrying out research and teaching activities with the Dept. of Signal Theory and Communications at URJC. In February 2017, he joined the University of Agder, Grimstad, Norway as a post-doctoral research fellow.

Dr. Lopez-Ramos’ research currently focuses on stochastic nonlinear programming, stochastic approximation and signal processing techniques, and their applications in wireless networks and power networks. In the SFI Offshore Mechatronics project he will work in WP6.1 Distributed in-network intelligence across multiple components.
