Dr. Baiqiao Chen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), University of Lisbon, and has served as Coordinator of the ACEAN Structural Laboratory since 2022. He obtained his PhD from IST in 2016, following a master’s degree from IST in 2011 and earlier bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Tianjin University, China. All his academic training is in Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering. Between 2016 and 2023, he worked as an Invited Assistant Professor and FCT-funded Researcher at IST. With more than 16 years of experience in the Marine Structures Group at the Centre for Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering (CENTEC), Dr. Chen has developed strong expertise in experimental and numerical analysis of ships and offshore structures. He has led multiple research initiatives and supervised both master’s and doctoral students. He has been invited to deliver seminars at several leading institutions, including Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Taihu Laboratory of Deepsea Technological Science, Harbin Engineering University, Wuhan University of Technology, and Northwestern Polytechnical University. He is currently leading a research project entitled “Structural Monitoring and Integrity Analysis of Subsea Pipelines for Marine Pollution Prevention”, funded by the FAM Foundation, a non-profit organization that supports research and innovation initiatives in marine and environmental engineering, with a total budget of €25,000 for a 12-month period starting in January 2026. His leadership is further demonstrated by his active involvement in the International Ship and Offshore Structures Congress (ISSC). Dr. Chen’s collaborative mindset and interdisciplinary approach make him well suited to lead diverse research teams. He has served as a session chair for major international conferences such as MARTECH (International Conference on Maritime Technology and Engineering), MARSTRUCT (International Conference on Marine Structures), and RENEW (International Conference on Renewable Energies Offshore), and holds advisory roles at universities in Korea and China. These activities highlight his ability to foster collaboration and leverage complementary expertise across institutions. He has authored nearly 80 scientific publications, with an H-index of 24 and more than 1,400 citations (as of 2026), reflecting his sustained contributions to floating offshore wind and digital twin technologies. He has completed over 260 peer reviews for journals such as Marine Structures, Ocean Engineering, and Thin-Walled Structures. He serves on the Editorial Boards of Ocean Engineering, Brodogradnja, and the Journal of Marine Science and Application, and has acted as Guest Editor for several journals, including Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, Applied Sciences, and Frontiers in Energy Research. He has also edited a scientific book and served as a reviewer for the ERC Advanced Grant 2024. Since 2017, Dr. Chen has taught courses at IST across all academic levels, including Technical Drafting for Shipbuilding (BSc), Ocean Platforms, Analysis of Ship Structure, Shipyard Management, and Subsea Production Systems (MSc), as well as Design of Ocean Platforms (PhD). He has served as tutor for first-year students and as a jury member for numerous MSc and PhD theses in Portugal and Brazil.
