Sergio T. Amancio-Filho is a full professor for aviation materials and manufacturing techniques at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz), Austria. He is the deputy head of the Institute of Materials Science, Joining and Forming and chair of the 'Austrian Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK) Endowed Professorship for Aviation'. The focus of his work has been on the correlation between processing, microstructure and material properties aiming at developing, understanding and optimizing additive manufacturing and joining techniques for lightweight engineering structures. Before joining TU Graz, he was a Helmholtz-Young Investigator group leader at Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht and assistant professor for Joining Technology at the Institute of Polymer Composites of Hamburg University of Technology (TU Hamburg, Germany), and also developed and patented prize-winning new joining techniques for polymer-metal hybrid structures.. He has been awarded 21 patents, co-published over 160 technical publications and co-edited the first technical book on joining technology of metal-polymer structures in 2018. Prof. Amancio-Filho is a recipient of national and international awards, including the Granjon Prize 2009 of the International Institute of Welding, the German High Tech Champions 2013 of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), and the Georg-Sachs Prize 2014 of the "Stifterverband Metalle und dem Fachverband der Nichteisen-Metallindustrie Österreichs" and German Society for Materials Science (DGM). Furthermore, he has advised several undergraduation and graduation works and is an active member in different scientific and technical committees in Europe and America. See less
