Trailblazers in Engineering (TBE) is a multi-day workshop focused on preparing future outstanding engineering scholars for future engineering faculty careers who are also committed to increasing the success of underrepresented communities of engineers. Trailblazers in Engineering Fellows are selected not only for their outstanding scholarly achievements but also for their potential impact in expanding representation and diversity in engineering. Mario was one of the 38 students selected out of a pool of +100 candidates.
A 'pejino' engineer in the global pharmaceutical elite: Mario de Lucio.
Interview by a local TV from Laredo, Cantabria, Spain, where I talk about my carreer and future endeavors as an engineer in the US.
"About to culminate his Ph.D. at Purdue University in the state of Indiana, USA, the young "pejino" Mario de Lucio returns home for a brief parenthesis before adding another milestone to an astonishing trajectory for his age. In this meeting, he reviews projects as emblematic as the bridge that connects Laredo with Santoña in the Puntal area. From there, he shares his progress in a delightful interview. Don't miss it."
Mario de Lucio wins the Runner-up award in the Poromechanics student competition at the Engineering Mechanics Institute Conference in Atlanta, GA.
Purdue ME PhD student Mario de Lucio received the Runner-up award in the Poromechanics student competition at the EMI 2023 in Atlanta for the paper titled: "Porohyperelastic modeling of high-dose subcutaneous injection of monoclonal antibodies using data-driven tissue geometries".
Mario de Lucio gives a keynote talk at the 2nd International Engineering Conference in Cali, Colombia.
Mario de Lucio was invited by the Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia to give one of the plenary talks in front of +300 attendees. His presentation titled: Engineering and Medicine: "Numerical simulation as a bridge connecting both" talked about the intersection between medicine and numerical simulation.
Mario's Master's thesis wins National Award and is published and featured in the Journal of Publics Works (Revista de Obras Públicas).
"Young engineer from Laredo is awarded the national prize for the best Master's thesis in Civil Engineering in Spain by the Spanish Institution of Civil Engineers for his bridge project that aims to connect Laredo and Santoña. His work was published and featured in the prestigious "Revista de Obras Públicas" (Journal of Public Works)."
Mario de Lucio receives multiple awards upon graduation in Spain.
"Engineer Mario de Lucio receives multiple awards in Spain. Among the most prominent are:
National Award to the best Master’s Thesis in Civil Engineering, Spanish Institution of Civil Engineers.
Award to the Best Master’s Thesis in Structural Engineering, Grupo Puentes
Award to the Best Master’s Thesis in Construction Engineering, COPASA.
Outstanding Civil Engineering Student Award, The Galician Civil Engineering Foundation.
Award to the Highest Cumulative GPA, School Civil Engineering, University of A Coruna."
A dream to unite Laredo and Santoña.
Interview by the regional newspaper "El Diario Montañes" from Cantabria, Spain, where I talk about my project to connect Laredo and Santona, Cantabria through a cable-stayed bridge.
"An engineer estimates the bidding budget for a bridge at 96 million euros. The bridge would have a length of 717 meters and would be completed within 19 months. Mario de Lucio has retrieved a project that Cantabria's President Juan de Hormaechea tried to develop thirty years ago. The bridge would have a traffic of 10,000 vehicles/day. The new infrastructure would include bicycle lanes and pedestrian crossings."
Widening the Bridges of Knowledge.
"Engineer Mario de Lucio presented the characteristics and justification for executing this structure that would connect the two cities in front of hundreds of attendees at the Casa de Cultura (Cultural Center). The bridge improves road safety by separating the directions of traffic flow. Additionally, it reduces the environmental impact on the marshland. "
An engineer retrieves the idea of connecting Laredo and Santoña through a bridge.
"The young engineer Mario de Lucio is working on a project that he will present to the regional government within a year, hoping that the infrastructure will be implemented. The engineer from Laredo asserts that the main problem he faces at the moment is related to the fact that the bridge must allow passage for boats traveling from Laredo to Santoña or Colindres. To address this, he has conducted a survey and found that the tallest boat has a height of 21 meters, requiring the bridge, of cable-stayed typology like the one in Colindres on the A-8, to be a rotating bridge on its axis. Additionally, de Lucio affirms that the Coastal Authority will need to approve this project if it is carried out since they have jurisdiction over the El Puntal esplanade, an area they intend to integrate into the natural space. This could disrupt the execution of the construction project."
