🌎 ISISE researcher at McGill University

From September 2025 to August 2026, our PhD researcher Ahmad Fathi, from the HMS group at ISISE, University of Minho, carried out an extended research stay at Struct-Lab, McGill University, under the supervision of Prof. Daniele Malomo.

During this period, Ahmad worked on the long-term behaviour of masonry walls, with a particular focus on understanding long-term deformation mechanisms.

The research stay provided an excellent opportunity to strengthen the collaboration between ISISE and McGill University, while also allowing Ahmad to expand his research experience within an international research environment.

The stay was also part of the internship under the IMFAHE Excellence Fellowship, supporting his academic and professional development through international research and collaboration.

At ISISE, Ahmad's doctoral research is carried out under the supervision of Dr João Pereira and Prof. Graça Vasconcelos and is supported by the SUBLime project, funded through the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, which focuses on sustainable and innovative lime-based solutions for the built environment.

We are pleased to see our researchers building international collaborations and contributing to the exchange of knowledge between research institutions. We wish Ahmad continued success in the final stages of his PhD and in his future research activities. ... See MoreSee Less

ISISE - Institute for Sustainability and Innovation in Structural Engineering was represented at Congresso Construção 2026, held on 23–24 September in Aveiro, Portugal!

Laura Lourenço de Sousa presented the work “Development of a Porous Metasurface with Integrated Resonators for Noise Barriers”, focused on the development of innovative acoustic solutions combining porous materials with integrated resonators.

Celebrating 25 years since its first edition, Congresso Construção 2026 brought together researchers, professionals and students to share knowledge and discuss advances and future challenges across the construction sector.

A great opportunity to share the research developed at ISISE and exchange ideas within the scientific and professional community.
