expandAbout me
expandA graduate of the Poznań University of Technology (1974) in the field of applications of mathematics in mechanics. He obtained the degrees of doctor (1979) and habilitated doctor (1992) and the title of professor (2002) in computational sciences. He represents the field of engineering and technical sciences within the disciplines of: technical information technology and telecommunications as well as mechanical engineering.
expandHe gained professional experience as an assistant professor at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences (1974-1980), as a professor at the Department of Applied Computer Science of the Institute of Biosystems Engineering at the University of Life Sciences in Poznań (1980-2017), where he was the head of the Department, deputy director of the Institute for science, head of the university’s IT Center, and the Rector’s representative for networks and information systems. He continues his research and teaching at Collegium Da Vinci, with which he has been associated since 2001, initially as WSNHiD. He also worked at foreign universities – in France (doctoral fellowship at École Centrale, Nantes), Canada (visiting researcher at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg) and the United States (visiting researcher at Purdue University, West Lafayette and University of Florida, Gainesville).
expandThe greatest scientific achievements: 1) development of integrated methods for the production of advisory Internet applications for the needs of agri-food and forest management using semantic networks and 3D modeling, 2) development of original algorithms and comprehensive software for the analysis of heat and water transport processes in biomaterials, 3) development of inverse analysis algorithms to identify unknown properties of investigated products.
expandHe is the author of numerous original works. Hirsch index according to Web of Science: 15, number of citations: 473. Leading publications: Weres J., Kujawa S., Olek W., Czajkowski Ł. 2016. Integration of experimental and computational methods for identifying geometric, thermal and diffusive properties of biomaterials. International Agrophysics 30(2): 253-260 and Weres J., Olek W., Kujawa S. 2009; Comparison of optimization algorithms for inverse FEA of heat and mass transport in biomaterials. Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 47(3): 701-716.
expandHe participated in many research projects of such programs and grant agencies as EC 7th Framework Program (“A common data exchange system for agricultural systems – agriXchange” and “FI-PPP project supporting SMEs in the development of smart services and applications for the agri-food sector – SmartAgriFood2″), COST Action, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, NSERC, NCN, etc. Participant, organizer and chairman of scientific schools and international conferences.
expandHe promoted 12 doctors, made 6 reviews for the title of professor, 1 for the title of doctor honoris causa, 19 for the degree of habilitated doctor, 27 for the degree of doctor.
expandHe cooperates with companies from the IT sector. Designed and implemented IT systems and computer networks in didactic and scientific units and agri-food enterprises. He organized and conducted two editions of nationwide training conferences of the Center for the Promotion of Information Technology in Warsaw: “IT Support for University Management – Review of practical solutions”. He has been cooperating with the Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center since 1993 in the creation and development of IT infrastructure in the Poznań environment, and participates in training and conferences organized by the Poznań Center (gave lectures: “Tools and services for smart agriculture and food processing”, “Integrated system for supporting determination and analysis of geometric, thermal and diffusive properties of agri-food and forest products”, “Development of IT infrastructure and data processing technology in the light of future challenges in agriculture and food production”).
expandHe is involved in work on the boards of international scientific societies in the field of computer science, such as EFITA, CIGR (IT Section), ASABE, IEEE and ACM, he was also a member of the Computational Sciences Section of the Computer Science Committee of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
expandI’m curious about
expandMemories of Far East voyages, great oceans and Conrad’s seven green isles (I graduated from the State Maritime School in Gdynia and sailed on ships of Polish Ocean Lines).
expandPainting, sculpture and architecture. Literature, history and philosophy of science. Processing of photos and my own videos.
