Federal University of Uberlândia / Faculty of Mechanical Engineering – FEMEC
Graduate Program – Mechanical Engineering
Undergraduate Programs• Mechanical Engineering – 1965• Mechatronics Engineering – 2004• Aeronautical Engineering – 2010• Approx.. 1000 students / 62
professors + 20 administrative staff• International Mobility Program –
CAPES/BRAFITEC (France) and Science Without Borders
• New campus (10.000 m2) dedicated to the 3 undergraduate courses
• Aprox. 200 students / 30 professors• Highest score by CAPES (7)• Partnership with EMBRAER,
PETROBRAS, FIAT, EMBRACO...• High quality research in areas such
Rotor Dynamics, Structural Analysis, Welding and Fabrication Process, Thermal Fluids (nanofluids / CFD / Heat Transfer)
Research Activities:
• Structural Health Monitoring (EMBRAER): development of an embedded system for monitoring the structural integrity of the airplane.
• Silent Aircraft Project I & II (EMBRAER): development of numerical approach for dealing with aeroacoustics problems – External noise focus.
• Multicopter UAV System for Vigilance (ALGAR Group): development of an UAV platform for surveillance in restricted areas.
• Conception and design of an airplane with morphing shape through use of smart materials (MCTI/CNPq): development of knowledge and improved solutions for using adaptive materials.
• Development of in house codes (CFD): Diferent techniques applied for solving industrial problems: external aerodynamics, combustion, petroleum and gas.
• Rotor Dynamics: vibration, friction damping, tribology, stress measurements.Several other projects funded by Brazilian agencies such as MCTI/FAPEMIG/CNPq among
others. Good infrastructure for research (Laboratories, equipments, human resources, administrative support).
