Last week, we had the joy of attending the Masterโs thesis presentations of two members of the Interact Research Lab. It was a truly special milestone for them and for our group. Clara Onofre successfully completed her Masterโs in Mechanical Engineering with the thesis “๐ฏ๐ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ง๐ฃ๐จ ๐ฆ๐ธ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ ๐จ๐ฝ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐ผ-๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฃ๐จ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ป๐”.

Both projects were developed at Instituto Superior Tรฉcnico under the supervision of Prof. Sofia Teixeira de Freitas and Prof. Fรกtima Vaz.
A warm acknowledgment to the evaluation committee: Prof. Virginia Infante, Prof. Miguel Tavares da Silva, Prof. Fernando Lau, and Prof. Manuel Sardinha, whose insights and engagement enriched the discussions.
Congratulations to both graduates for their hard work, dedication, and contributions to the group. We are proud to have them in the Interact Research Team and wish them every success in their future professional path.
