Functional Performance
The Functional Performance (FP) group was created in 2017, and has steadily grown in the successive years. FP is coordinated by Luรญs Godinho, from the University of Coimbra, and incorporates researchers from both the University of Coimbra and the University of Minho.
Overview
Group FP - Functional Performance
Re-use of structural masonry and timber aims at developing integral building solutions (all functional requirements) and modular solutions. Infrastructure management has a strong focus on assessment of bridges and transportation networks, including risk management and extreme events. Geotechnics has a focus on ground parameters and performance predictions, namely for rock masses, slope management and railways engineering.

ISISE Day Out 2024 Highlights! ๐
On July 11th, over 200 participants gathered at the University of Guimarรฃes for a vibrant and engaging ISISE Day Out. The morning was filled with social activities, including a scenic hike and a Peddy-paper challenge along Vizela's boardwalk. Twenty teams worked together, fostering teamwork and camaraderie.
The afternoon featured a workshop with presentations by PhD students and postdoctoral researchers from each ISISE group. We were honored to have Cristiano Premebida from the Institute of Systems and Robotics (University of Coimbra) deliver a keynote on Machine Learning in Intelligent Vehicles/Transportation Systems.
The day concluded with the ISISE awards for best presentations. Congratulations to Sinem Tola (PhD candidate) and David Andrade (Post-Doc) for their well-deserved wins!
This event was a fantastic platform for academic exchange and strengthened our community bonds. We look forward to the next ISISE Day Out and thank everyone for their enthusiastic participation!
