Dr. Rocha Segundo has distinguished himself as a prolific researcher and author, contributing 27 articles to international peer-reviewed journals, achieving an impressive h-index of 10, and garnering over 460 citations. His work, primarily focused on the functionalization of construction materials, bridges the gap between traditional civil engineering practices and innovative solutions in materials science, chemistry, and physics by incorporating nano/microparticles and polymeric materials, such as phase change materials. The research during his PhD ventured into the development of smart asphalt mixtures and the exploration of photocatalytic and superhydrophobic materials for environmental purification and improvements in road safety. Dr. Rocha Segundo's significant contribution to the field is underscored by his role in pioneering studies that have led to publications in high-impact journals, including an article in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews with an impact factor of 15.9. This article, a comprehensive literature review on smart asphalt mixtures, exemplifies his ability to synthesize and innovate within his domain. Dr. Rocha Segundo's distinctions highlight his academic and research excellence, including the best presentation on anti-icing pavements by young researchers at PFDM - Pavement Functional Design and Management (Guimarães, 2023), the ANPET Scientific Production Award (Fortaleza, 2022) for a study on emissions in asphalt production, recognition as the best Master's student in Civil Engineering at the University of Minho (Guimarães, 2018) studying photocatalytic and superhydrophobic asphalt pavements, and an honorable mention in the Ilídio Pinho Foundation Award (Lisbon, 2019). Additionally, his team secured second place in the FCT NOVA Challenge Award for the Greenway project (Lisbon, 2019). Dr. Rocha Segundo's project contributions cover innovative civil engineering solutions, including "MicroCoolPav" (50k euros, funded by FCT) for cool pavements using phase change materials, "NanoAir" (250k euros, funded by FCT), Asphalt Pavement Functionalization by Photocatalysis for Air Pollution Mitigation (16k euros, funded by CNPq, Brazil), and Analysis of the Relationship between Vehicular Atmospheric Pollutants and Characteristics of the Infrastructure: Proposing Green Routes (16k euros, funded by FUNCAP, Brazil) focusing on air-cleaning road pavements and air quality monitoring. His work also includes feasibility studies for the Port of Antwerp (108k euros, funded by the Port of Antwerp) and the Greenway project, aimed at applying Project-Based Learning linking high school and university. He is the Principal Investigator (PI) of the project NanoSensorRoads, which aims to develop nanosensors to alert users to iced roads based on smart thermochromic and self-cleaning materials (funded by FCT) and co-PI of the Technical Collaboration Projects and Scientific Knowledge in the Field of Air Quality: University of Minho and the Northern Regional Coordination and Development Commission. Currently, he is responsible for 1 Post-Doc researcher and (co)supervisor of 4 PhD students, 2 Master's students, and 2 research fellows.

  4. Assessing photocatalytic asphalt mixtures: practical and laboratory methods for measuring air quality. Air pollution in urban areas has become a major global concern, leading to a series of programs and regulations to be implemented to reduce it. Among the various pollutants that affect air quality is nitrogen monoxide (NO), which, once in the atmosphere, oxidizes into nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The combination of NO and NO2 refer to the nitrogen oxides (NOx), which, besides being harmful to health, h. 2023.

  5. Reducing the effects of Low Albedo of asphalt materials incorporating Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) 1000, 2000 and 4000 as Phase Change Materials (PCM). Albedo plays a vital role in urban microclimates. Civil engineering structures usually absorb a high amount of energy in form of heat, for example asphalt pavements, which have a low albedo, thus contributing to the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effects. Modifying the physical characteristics of asphalt pavements, including reflectance and thermal properties, can help mitigate UHI. The literature points. 2023.

  7. Thermochromism applied to transportation engineering: asphalt roads and paints. Thermochromic materials change their optical response to temperature reversibly. This study explores the application of thermochromism to road engineering, which is still incipient in this area, from two perspectives. The first one is about the development of functionalized road markings (FRM) working as thermochromic sensors to alert the presence of ice on the road and, in this way, to improve ro. 2022.

  8. Optical, structural, morphological and chemical properties of doped TiO2 nanoparticles with FeCl3. To achieve high photocatalytic activity, TiO2 nanoparticlesrequire an excitation source in ultraviolet radiation. Incorporating chemical elements into the TiO2 lattice can tune its band gap, resulting in an edge-shifted red absorption to reduce energies, improving photocatalytic performance in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In this research, TiO2 semiconductor nanoparticles we. 2022. Afonso, Cátia; Segundo, Iran Gomes Rocha; Lima Jr., Orlando; Landi Jr., Salmon; Homem, Natália Cândido; Costa, Manuel F. M.; Freitas, E.

  9. Reducing the impact of the sunlight in urban areas using asphalt mixtures with phase change materials: a review in Scopus in the last three years. Phase change materials (PCMs) have been incorporated into asphalt concrete pavements because they can regulate the temperature by absorbing and releasing heat during physical state changes. This effect reduces temperature gradients of pavements and, consequently, increases its service life. This work presents a systematic review of recent articles published in peer-reviewed journals (available in. 2022.

  12. Superhydrophobic asphalt pavements: surface improvement. The most adverse weather condition for road safety happens when there is water, snow, or ice on the road surface because their presence highly decreases friction. Therefore, it is essential to drain or repel them quickly. If the water drops are repelled from the surface or the ice/snow formation is avoided with the application of superhydrophobic coatings, roads become safer. In order to functiona. 2020.
