Visiting PhD Researcher
Henrique is a PhD Researcher at the Federal University of Bahia (Brazil) and is a visiting researcher at the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University of Sheffield. He is supervised by Dr. Cleber Dias and Dr. Brant Walkley and is a member of Sustainable Materials at Sheffield (SMASH) and Cements@Sheffield.
Henrique obtained his bachelor's degree in Exact and Technological Sciences and Civil Engineering from the Federal University of Recôncavo da Bahia (2017). His Master's degree in Civil Engineering was obtained from the Federal University of Bahia (2020). The focus of his dissertation was the development of composites with self-compacting geopolymeric binders and 3D-printed polymer meshes.
Henrique's PhD project aims to investigate the durability of vegetable fibers in geopolymeric binders, determining degradation mechanisms and proposing mitigation methods.
