Felipe received his Master's degree in Structural Engineering from the University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil, in 2023 with a master's thesis entitled Performance-based reliability assessment of transmission lines subjected to tornado actions.
Since March 2023, Felipe has been enrolled as a Ph.D. student at the Department of Structural Engineering of the University of São Paulo (EESC/USP), focusing on optimal solutions for transmission line design under non-synoptic wind hazards following the Performance-based risk optimization approach.
In November 2024, Felipe joined the Chair of Risk, Safety and Uncertainty Quantification as a visiting Ph.D. student to work on surrogate-modelling approaches for the efficient construction of fragility functions of wind-excited structures.
