Análise de um estilingue e espirais de caderno: Um estudo de caso.
Published in Rev. Bras. de Ensino de Fisica, 2006
Can a hit from a slingshot kill you? My first academic paper shows that even home-made slingshots can be fatal, owing to cubic terms in Hooke’s law that make elastics a lot more dangerous than springs.

Predictive self-assembly of polyhedra into complex structures
Published in Science, 2012
This paper shows that directional entropic forces can lead simple geometries to spontaneously self-assemble into a plethora of complex crystals under confinement. The rules dictating which crystals might be formed come simply from the building blocks geometries.
