The thesis has a strong domain on Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Programming and Numerical Methods Applied to Fluid Mechanics and Transport Phenomena such as Mass Transfer and Heat Transfer. Sónia Pinto finished the Ph.D. in July 2011. Then, Sónia Pinto won a Post-Doctoral Grant, in Mechanical Engineering domain, also funded by "Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia" (SFRH / BPD / 78262 / 2011). She started the Post-Doctoral Program in January 2012 and finished in August 2017, also in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Programming, and Numerical Methods, applied to Biomechanics. In September 2014, the Math Section of the Mechanical Engineering Department of FEUP invited Sónia Pinto to be an Invited Assistant Professor. Since March 2022, she is an Assistant Professor in the same Department and Section. She is teaching "Mathematical Analysis II", "Mathematical Analysis III" and "Computer Programming I" in the Bachelor in Mechanical Engineering and in the Bachelor in Engineering and Industrial Management; "Computational Fluid Mechanics" in the Master in Computational Mechanics; "Laboratory Projects" and "Dissertation" in the Master in Biomedical Engineering; and "Dissertation" in the Master in Mechanical Engineering. At international level, she was invited by University of Maryland Baltimore County (USA) and McGill University (Canada) to give lectures and workshops on "Computational Fluid Mechanics applied to Hemodynamics". The research interests of Sónia Pinto are in the Computational Domain (Computational Programming, Numerical Methods, Mathematical Analysis, Artificial Intelligence) applied to Biomechanics (main research topic) and Thermal Energy (recent research topic), being an R&D member of the research group LAETA - interface institute: INEGI. She publishes several international (indexed) papers, per year, and organizes several symposiums for congresses. She has been the supervisor of several students in their dissertations, in academic and industrial environments, examiner of several national and international theses, and reviewer of several international (indexed) papers. Among many other activities, she has also participated in many national and international R&D projects as principal investigator, co-coordinator, and researcher; and she has been an expert evaluator and consultant of international R&D projects funded by the European Commission (Horizon 2020) and by specific countries (Canada, Hungary, Republic of Serbia, Slovakia).

2021/10 - Current In this NSERC Alliance project, a partner organization, the company Opsens from Quebec, Canada, also participates with funding, once the goal of the project is to give response to the company. Opsens is in the stage of evaluating their FFR-coresgistration technology. Sónia Pinto is coordinating the numerical part of the project, in Portugal. She is helping on the software development in order to accurately simulate the cardiovascular phantom hemodynamics. Opsens Inc, Canada
2021/10 - Current Prof. Rosaire Mongrain from the Mechanical Department of McGill University, a public university of Quebec, Canada, has invited Sónia Pinto to be Co-Coordinator (coordinator in Portuguese institutions) of the multi-disciplinary project involving Canada and Portugal. An approved R&D project is "Development of a coronary phantom for testing a FFR co-registration technology", funded by NSERC. Sónia Pinto is the main responsible for this project in Portugal, regarding the numerical part. McGill University Department of Mechanical Engineering, Canada
2021/03 - Current In CADS-FACT project, that Sónia Pinto is leading, several Institutions of the public sector are participating such CHVNG/E, FMUP and UA. The numerical methods, numerical simulations and programming knowledge of Sónia Pinto is important to obtain non-invasive results, which medical doctors can only obtain invasively, in the hospital, for the patient. Moreover, this validated numerical software to obtain non-invasive results reduces the risks for the patient and the costs to the hospital. Centro Hospitalar de Vila Nova de Gaia Espinho EPE, Portugal
2021/01 - Current Sónia Pinto was invited by Prof. Eduardo Suárez and Prof. Concepción Paz (University of Vigo) to take part in a R&D project together - an Iberian Project - on the topic of hemodynamics in cerebral aneurysms. Thus, in order to gain experience in aneurysms topic before submitting the project, a research work, based on hemodynamic simulations and modeling, was developed and successfully published in an international journal with peer review: "Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine" - impact factor 7.027. Universidade de Vigo, Spain
2020/02 - Current Sónia Pinto was proposed by Prof. Nikolaj Gadegaard (University of Glasgow) to participate in the funded project of Organ on a Chip-Technology, regarding modeling and enhancement of human liver microphysiology on a chip. This collaboration has resulted in the supervision of a Master Thesis, a published international paper with peer review (“International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering” – impact factor 2.097) and an oral presentation in an international conference and respective publication in proceedings. University of Glasgow, United Kingdom
2018/01/01 - Current INEGI has been the Principal Contractor in which Sónia Pinto is coordinating and leading national and international R&D Projects, such as "Coronary Artery Disease Numerical Simulation and Functional Assessment by Advanced Computed Tomography - CADS-FACT" funded by "Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia" (Principal Investigator of the Project); and "Development of a coronary phantom for testing a FFR co-registration technology" approved by the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada (Coordinator of the Project in Portugal). Instituto de Engenharia Mecanica e Gestao Industrial, Portugal
2018 - Current The CeNTI company has the interest on increasing in the field of Numerical Methods domain in Mechanical Engineering. They are specialized on experiments, analysis, product development, prototyping and fabrication in several fields, regarding many R&D Projects. Thus, the CeNTI team has invited Sónia Pinto, expert on Numerical Methods, Numerical Simulations and Programming, to collaborate in their interest. Numerical simulations are essential before prototyping and experiments, to reduce the costs. Centitvc Centro de Nanotecnologia e Materiais Técnicos Funcionais e Inteligentes, Portugal
2012/01/01 - 2017/08/31 Sónia Pinto participated in her Post-Doctoral Program in Mechanical Engineering “Multiscale Numerical Study of the Hemodynamic in Blood Vessels”, in other R&D Projects involving hospitals, Hospital de Santa Cruz and Hospital de São João, and other medical doctors.
