Nuno Manuel Mendes Maia obtained his first degree in 1978 and his master's degree in 1985, both in mechanical engineering from Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST), University of Lisbon. He received his PhD in mechanical vibrations (1989) from Imperial College London, UK. He had his habilitation in mechanical engineering in 2001 from Instituto Superior Tecnico, University of Lisbon. Prof. Maia has authored and co-authored two textbooks and about two hundred scientific publications in international journals and conference proceedings on the subject of modal analysis and structural dynamics. He is an Associate Editor of the Shock and Vibration Journal, belongs to the Editorial Advisory Board of The Journal of Vibration and Control, is a member of the Editorial Board of the Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, a member of the Society for Experimental Mechanics (SEM), a member of the International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration (IIAV), and of the Portuguese Society of Acoustics (SPA), where he is responsible for the area of vibrations. He has participated and coordinated various national and international research projects in the area of modal analysis and structural vibrations and has been responsible for the organization of the International Conference on Structural Engineering Dynamics (ICEDyn), since 2002. His current research interests are modal analysis and modal testing, updating of finite element models, coupling and structural modification, damage detection in structures, modeling of damping, transmissibility in multiple degree-of-freedom systems, and force identification.
