O pesquisador implementou métodos acoplados para analisar o comportamento termo-mecânico do material compósito sob tensão.
This is specialized terminology primarily used in academic, engineering, and scientific research contexts in both Brazil and the USA. It is particularly prevalent in computational engineering programs at universities and in research institutions dealing with complex physical simulations. The term is identical in both Brazilian Portuguese and Portugal Portuguese, as it belongs to technical scientific vocabulary that is standardized internationally.
