Dr. Andrej Žerovnik, born in 1980 in Ljubljana, graduated in 2005 from the Faculty of Mechanical
Engineering at the University of Ljubljana, where he also began his career as a junior researcher in
the Laboratory for Modeling of Elements and Structures. In 2010, he earned his doctorate with
award-winning work in cyclic plasticity modeling, for which he received a special recognition for
professional excellence from the company Trimo Trebnje. He continued his academic career as a
researcher and assistant and was appointed Assistant Professor in 2018 in the field of Structural
and Developmental Engineering. Since 2020, he has been a research fellow on the prestigious ERC
Supercool project, and in 2023, he was reappointed as Assistant Professor in the field of
mechanical engineering.
His research activities focus on the development of constitutive models for elasto-plastic analysis,
material fatigue, and the application of shape-memory materials. He is the author of 20 scientific
articles in renowned peer-reviewed journals and a co-author of an international patent. His
bibliography, based on the COBISS methodology, comprises 139 entries, and his work has been
cited more than 450 times. He is actively involved in teaching Descriptive Geometry and Technical
Documentation, contributing educational materials and mentoring undergraduate and doctoral
theses. With his international recognition and experience in leading research projects, he
significantly contributes to the advancement of mechanical engineering.
On the list of genetic programming bibliography he ranks 16 out of 13751 authors
(http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~wbl/biblio/gp-html/).
