What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Thermodynamics

Raul D.S.G. Campilho spends much of his time researching Composite material, Adhesive, Structural engineering, Finite element method and Fracture mechanics. His Composite material study is mostly concerned with Fracture toughness, Adhesive bonding and Failure mode and effects analysis. His Adhesive research includes themes of Ultimate tensile strength, Work, Epoxy, Joint and Composite number.

His Structural engineering study often links to related topics such as Brittleness.
