Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis of Size-Dependent Structural Members in Temperature Fields

From the beginning of his academic career Jan Awrejcewicz has been associated with the Mechanical Faculty of the Lodz University of Technology, where he obtained a master's degree in engineering, a PhD in technical sciences and a postdoctoral degree (habilitation). In 1994, he received the title of Professor from the President of Poland. In 1998 he founded the Department of Automation, Biomechanics and Mechatronics, that he is still managing. Since 2013 he has been a member of the Polish Central Commission for Degrees and Titles, and since 2019 also of the Council for Scientific Excellence. He is also an Editor-in-Chief of 3 international journals and member of the Editorial Boards of 90 international journals (23 with IF) as well as editor of 25 books and 28 journal special issues. He also reviewed 45 monographs and textbooks and over 600 journal papers for about of 140 journals. His scientific achievements cover issues related to asymptotic methods for continuous and discrete mechanical systems, taking into account thermoelasticity and tribology, and computer implementations using symbolic calculus, nonlinear dynamics of mechanical systems with friction and impacts, as well as engineering biomechanics. He authored/co-authored over 780 journal papers and refereed international conference papers and 50 monographs. For his scientific merits he received numerous prestigious awards and distinctions, among them the Humboldt Award (twice) and titles of the Honorary Doctor of Czestochowa University of Technology (2013), University of Technology and Humanities in Bielsko-Biala (2013), Kielce University of Technology (2019), National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute" (2019), and Gdansk University of Technology (2019).
