Is
a lecturer within the Steel Structures and Structural Mechanics department of Politehnica
University of Timisoara. He graduated in 2008 from Faculty of Civil Engineering
and, in 2011, following a successful Ph.D. thesis defense he was awarded the dr.
ing. title. Since graduation, his focus is advanced numerical simulations applied
for steel structures in seismic areas and lightweight structures made of cold formed
steel. In recent years, BIM has become a big part of his research and, as a consequence,
in 2021 the first BIM related course was introduced in a Romanian university. Besides
the theoretical background and a BIM specific project, the course offers examples
of BIM use cases from industry, presented by companies in an ongoing collaboration.
Is
Full Professor and Director within the Steel Structures and Structural Mechanics
Department of Politehnica University of Timisoara. He graduated in 1983 the Faculty
of Civil Engineering Timișoara and, in 1999, following a successful Ph.D. thesis
defense held at INSA Rennes, France, he was awarded the dr. ing. title. After 3
years in industry as Structural Engineer and 9 years in research activity, in 1994,
he changed to a research and teaching career at Politehnica University of Timisoara.
From 2007, he is researcher 1st degree at the Romanian Academy – Timisoara Branch.
His works are mainly focused on Structural Engineering and Seismic Design of steel
and composite structures. He is active in different research projects concerning
steel structures, sustainability and where recently BIM use in constructions is
one of the main subjects.
Is
currently Professor at the Department of Steel Structures and Structural Mechanics
and Dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering of Timisoara since 2016. His research
activities are focused on Fire design, Steel and Composite Structures, Thin-walled
cold-formed steel structures. He is involved in the CEN standardization activity,
being member of CEN/TC250 Working Groups SC3/WG2, SC4/WG2 and Convenor of SC1/WG4.
is
a Structural Engineer and Assistant Professor within the Steel Structures and Structural
Mechanics department of Politehnica University of Timisoara. She graduated in 2012
the Faculty of Civil Engineering Timișoara and, in 2016, following a successful
Ph.D. thesis defense held at University of Liege, Belgium, she was awarded the dr.
ing. title. After 3 years in industry as Structural Engineer, in 2019, Diana returned
to a research and teaching career. Her works are mainly focused on Structural Fire
Engineering Design of steel and composite structures. Being a dynamic and flexible
person, she uses her experience in order to connect the University world with the
industry one. In this aim, she is active in different projects, where BIM use in
Constructions field is one of the main subjects.
is
a university lecturer at the Polytechnic University of Timișoara Teaching Geodesy,
Cadastre, Theory of Geodetic Topographical Measurements, is responsible for practical
activities with students internships and summer schools, participation in conferences
and organization of conferences. She is also a researcher involved in the field
of land measurements, being national vice president for the West Country region
within the Union of Geodesists in Romania. BIM is the field it brings to the attention
of those in geodetic engineering Anca Maria is authorized with Category D to execute
projects and works in the fields of measurements.
Is
a production system engineer, graduating in 1997 with a bachelor's degree and in
1998 with a master's degree from the Faculty of Management in Production and Transportation
of UPT. In 2012 he successfully defended his PhD thesis in Economics, in the field
of Management, at the West University of Timisoara in partnership with the Technical
University of Munich.
is
an architect and tutor at the Politehnica University of Timisoara, with a main interest
in architectural theory and concept design. She graduated in 2013 and has since
been engaged in both practical and theoretical activities. She is also a member
of the National Architects’ Order (OAR).
is
concerned with the application of modern information and communication technology
during the design, construction and the operation of civil infrastructure, such
as buildings, bridges, tunnels, road and pipe networks. In this regard, methods
of BIM, computer vision and machine learning as well as virtual and augmented reality
are utilized to efficiently and sustainably inform decision makers. He is further
Director of Studies Digital Engineering (consecutive Master's programme at BUW)
and responsible for the further development of the course.
Focuses
on the system analysis of structures including derivation of suitable partial models,
engineering consideration of coupling and interactions, recording and consideration
of extreme and changing load conditions as well as avoidance or evaluation of collapse
potential using latest technologies (tools of digital engineering).

University of Coimbra, he is responsible for the management of the Technology Transfer
(UC Business) and he is in charge of a new educational initiative related to a new
dual MSc course in Civil Engineering and Management.
She
is an integrated member of the Institute for Sustainability and Innovation in Structural
Engineering (ISISE), and Assistant Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering
of the University of Coimbra.
has
strong collaboration with several codification bodies and committees. He is recently
appointed member of Project Team Leader of one of the task for reviewed version
of EN 1998-1 - Evolution of the Structural Eurocodes. He was scientific coordinator
of research units within international research projects , as well as of international
teaching Activities. Since September 2007, he is chairman of the ECCS Technical
Committee n.13 on Seismic Design. At national level, prof. Landolfo has been serving
as member of the Seismic Committee within “Fondazione Promozione Acciaio” (since
2005), and the Steering Committee of the National Council of Steel Technicians “CTA”
(since 2006).
