Hermes Ponce, PhD

✅ Involvement in international projects for the design and calculation of civil engineering and building structures. ✅ Development of calculation models with SAP2000, Sofistik and Python with automated processes. ✅ Development of blueprints in collaboration with the BIM team. ✅ Preparation of design documents. ✅ Extensive knowledge using structural codes: European (EC), Spanish (CE / CTE), Australian (AS), Brazilian (ABNT NBR), American (ACI / ASCE) and British (BS).

✅ Analytical reasoning to solve complex problems in structures with dynamic and non-linear analysis using SAP2000 and OpenSEES software. ✅ Extensive knowledge using European (Eurocodes) and Spanish regulations (Structural Code) for the design and calculation of building structures in concrete, steel and timber. ✅ Great skills to use and learn software to automate calculation processes and pattern identification through machine learning using data science tools with Python and Matlab. ✅ Knowledge of industry trends and experience clearly communicating complex topics and business reports using Power BI, as evidenced by the 3 award-winning scientific presentations.

✅ Knowledgeable innovator with expertise in new devices as evidenced by one patent for earthquakes applications and 5 articles published in a top-tier peer-reviewed journal. ✅ Excellent teamwork and collaboration skills demonstrated by managing several research projects, resulting in €500k in grant funding for the department. ✅ Excellent relationship builder with advanced statistics skills as demonstrated by the optimization of a new viscoelastic material (device with patent). ✅ Product and market knowledge with commercial acumen, creating a new material that reduces earthquake damage to buildings by 90%.

✅ Extensive knowledge using Spanish Codes (EHE-08, EAE and CTE) for the design and calculation of building structures in concrete, steel and timber. ✅ Extremely good attention to detail reviewing the calculation reports and materials used in the construction site and producing reports worth €200,000/year. ✅ Great technical assistance and planning capacity to supervise the status of the works and execution deadlines as an OCT consultant.

✅ Strong leadership skills and experience managing co-workers for a €3M project for repair operations at one of the highest dams in the world (Karun IV). ✅ High-level strategic planner with experience in analyzing large datasets as demonstrated by the 100% accuracy in the predictive calculations carried out in the dam. ✅ Conflict resolution and resource management to get workers from different countries and cultures to work together and accomplish goals satisfactorily.

✅ Design and calculation of steel structures for industrial works. ✅ Extensive knowledge using Spanish regulations (EAE and CTE) for the design and calculation of steel structures. ✅ Great technical assistance and planning capacity to supervise the status of the works and execution deadlines.

PhD with FPI scholarship focused on the numerical and experimental study of the seismic response of structures with hybrid energy dissipators that combine viscous and elastoplastic components. Mention as International PhD.
