Presently, since 2012 he is Head of the Regional Laboratory of Civil Engineering in Azores. Currently, he is a board member of the Portuguese Seismic Engineer Society (SPES) and a member of the Fiscal Council of the Fund for the Development of Construction Sciences.
As president of the organizing committee, he was responsible for several scientific events, namely the 10th Portuguese Congress of Seismology and Earthquake Engineering, the 16th Portuguese Geotechnical Congress, the 6th Luso-Spanish Geotechnical Conference and the I International Workshop on Natural Hazards. Currently, is in Organizing Committee of the International Workshop "Natural Hazards - Hydrological Risks" (LREC, Pico Island, Azores, May 2019).Ana Malheiro
A. Malheiro is a skilled Geologist with 34 years of experience in practice and research in engineering geology, geotechnics and geological hazards. She studied Geology at the Faculty Sciences of the University of Lisbon in 1983 and received her master's degree at the University of Azores in Volcanology and Geological Risks in 2002.She works since 1984 in the Regional Laboratory of Civil Engineering where she responsible for the areas of engineering geology, in situ geological and geotechnical investigations, geotechnics and geological risks. She was Head of the Division of Ports (1995/1998) and since 1998 until now, she is Director of Services of the Department of Geotechnics and Exploration. She participated in several Coordination Commissions for Management Plans (namely Regional Plans and Municipal Plans). In addition, was also invited assistant lecturer (1985/1990; 1996/1999) at Azores University.
She participated in several organizing committees for National and international Congresses and Workshops, as well as Scientific Commissions (e.g. 15th World Conference on Seismic Engineering, Lisbon, 2012, 5th, 9th and 10th National Congress of Seismology and Seismic Engineering, respectively in 2001, 2014 and 2016; 16th National Congress of Geotechnics, 2018). Currently, is in Organizing Committee of the International Workshop "Natural Hazards - Hydrological Risks" (LREC, Pico Island, Azores, May 2019).She has been co-authored several publications in indexed journals, conference proceedings/full papers, book chapters, technical, professional papers and technical reports. She co-edited 1 special volume "Volcanic Rocks" (Taylor & Francis). In general, technical reports they focus on the field of in situ geological-geotechnical investigations to support the larger constructions built in the Azores region, coastal erosion, slope stability; as well as, the evaluation of resources in quarries, evaluation of geological and/or geotechnical problems and the assessment of geological hazards
