Professor

Henrique L.M. dos Reis, Ph.D., Professor of Industrial and Enterprise Systems Engineering, joined the faculty in 1980. Before coming to the University of Illinois, he was on the faculty of the Universidade de Campinas, Brazil, where he taught structural mechanics. He earned a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Luanda, Angola, in 1972, and joined its faculty to teach courses in solid mechanics. He enrolled in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1973 and earned M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Mechanical Engineering in 1975 and 1978.

His research centers on the theory and application of nondestructive testing and evaluation of materials and structures. He is the Director of the Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation Research Laboratory where he manages industry-sponsored research and development projects. He is especially interested in integrating the fundamentals of nondestructive evaluation in the areas of manufacturing and design such that processes can be monitored and products evaluated.

He is a Fellow of the British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing and of the Acoustic Emission Working Group (AEWG). He is also a member of the American Society for Engineering Education, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, American Society of Aeronautics and Astronautics, American Academy of Mechanics, Society of Experimental Mechanics, and the American Society for Testing and Materials.
