CANDIDATE PROFILE
Discipline: mechanical engineering/mechanics, automation and control, applied mathematics.
I am interested in collaborative research with a holder of a doctoral degree in mechanical engineering who specializes in nonlinear dynamics, mechanics/mechatronics, and applied mathematics. The candidate should possess advanced knowledge of the mathematical modeling of vibrating mechanical systems—whether lumped-mass or continuous (beams, plates, shells)—operating within electromagnetic fields. In addition to a solid theoretical background, the candidate should demonstrate proficiency in the numerical analysis and simulation of nonlinear dynamic systems, as well as in conducting experimental research.
BIO of Professor Jan AWREJCEWICZ
He became a full Professor in 1994 and in 1998 he founded and chaired the Department of Automation, Biomechanics and Mechatronics while in the years 1998-2022 he was the head of doctoral studies in Mechanics. In 2013-2017 he worked at the Warsaw University of Technology. He supervised 35 Ph.D. Theses. He is a real member of the Polish Academy of Sciences (2021-) and European Academy of Sciences and Arts (2021-).
He is the author/co-author of 58 monographs (including 30 in English), 2 textbooks and 1072 scientific articles (740 journals papers and 332 chapters in books). He was an editor of 36 books, editor of both 44 special issues of journals and 23 conference proceedings.
For his scientific achievements, he was twice honored with the prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Foundation award.
He served as a Keynote Speaker at 87 conferences and gave over 70 seminars at renowned universities abroad. Jan Awrejcewicz is also a Doctor Honoris Causa of 7 universities. In total, he worked for 10 years at renowned universities abroad, supported by the A. Humboldt Foundation, the Fulbright Foundation, the Japanese Science Promotion Society and Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology (Tokyo, Japan), and 3 French grants.
He was the organizer/chairman of 22 international conferences: ‘Dynamical Systems - Theory and Applications’ in Lodz, Poland (16; 1992-2021), ’International Conference of the Polish Society of Biomechanics’ in Lodz (2014), ‘Mechatronics: Ideas for Industrial Application’: Warsaw (2012), Lodz (2014), Gdansk (2015), ‘Biomechanics - Modeling, Numerical Simulations, Experimental Investigations and Biomedical Applications’, Lodz (1998), ’Nonlinearity, Bifurcation and Chaos. The Doors to Future’, Lodz-Dobieszkow (1996).
