He is member of the Industrial Electronics R&D Line (Centro ALGORITMI) and of the GEPE. His main research interests are related to power electronics solutions applied to Industrial Electronics, Renewable Energy Sources, and powertrain and battery chargers in Electric Vehicles. Related to the developed research in these areas were obtained 11 power electronics prototypes. He is author or co-author of 39 scientific papers, all of them subject to a scientific referee. He is author or co-author of 4 international journal papers, 37 international conference papers, and 1 book chapters. He is the supervisor of 2 MSc student, and he was supervisor of 1 internship student and 7 students that developed 4 projects under MSc studies. He also served as a supervisor of 2 international students during laboratory activities. Since the PhD, he participated as arguing on the jury of 4 MSc dissertations. He participated in the preparation of 6 national project applications (FCT and Portugal Ventures). In the SCOPUS database, he has: 23 papers, 123 citations, h-index 5. In the Publons database, he has: 38 papers, 61 citations, h-index 3. In the Google Scholar database, he has: 42 papers, 272 citations, h-index 9. Regarding activities as Editor, he is Journal Topic Editor of MDPI Electronics and MDPI Energies. Since the PhD, he reviewer 20 journal papers, and 9 conference papers. He participated in the organization of 8 conferences and symposiums. He is 2 Workshops Chair (Conference and European RoboCupJunior) and 1 session chair.
