Jasmin Jelovica, PhD, P.Eng.
Assistant Professor, Principal Investigator
NSERC/Seaspan Industrial Research Chair
Short Bio and Research Agenda: I obtained my M.Sc from University of Rijeka, Croatia, and D.Sc. from Aalto University, Finland. I joined UBC as Assistant Professor in 2017, where I hold NSERC/Seaspan Industrial Research Chair since 2020. My interests focus on modeling response and failure of advanced structures. This involves a range of modeling approaches that I am advancing with my research group: shear-deformable beams and plates, swarm and evolutionary optimization, topology optimization, and data-driven physics-informed models. Crucial part of drive for high-quality structures is manufacturing; this is where our research on new low-heat-input welding techniques come in.
