INTERNATIONAL PHD. STUDENTS DAY
As part of the STRUTEX conference, we would like to invite you to the International Ph.D. students day dedicated to young scientists and researchers in Ph.D. study. Research area topics are selected on two sections, I: Structure and Structural Mechanics of Textiles and II: Innovation and Application of Textile Research.
IMPORTANT DATES
Note: Participant registration is by e-mail (strutex@tul.cz) until 30.9.2024. In the e-mail, the student will only state the title of the lecture (without the abstract). In the event that a student wishes to include his or her Ph.D. lecture in the Proceedings of the International Day of Ph.D. Students, send the full text (max. 8 pages) by e-mail to strutex@tul.cz by November 3, 2024. Presentations form - oral presentation only. Templates and submission same as for STRUTEX conference - see PAPER SUBMISSION. Best three presentations will be awarded. The number of participants is limited (12 presentations only) and therefore the early bird registration is recommended. The international day for speakers is free of charge.
INVITED SPEAKER
 | Prof. Dr. Ing. Math. Yordan Kostadinov KYOSEV |
| Institution: Chair of Development and Assembly of Textile Products, ITM, TU Dresden, Germany | |
| Research Interest: Body Scanning, clothing development, material parameters of textile structures, geometrical and mechanical modeling of knitted and braided structures; application of FEM for the modelling of fiber and yarn based structures; braiding machines and technology; fuzzy logic. | |
| Topic of Lecture: From analytical to extended numerical modelling in the textile science. |
His early carrier started in Sofia, Bulgaria at the Department of Textiles, where he was 1997 to 1999 as PhD student and external assistant processor and 1999-2003 as assistant professor for design of textile and sewing machines. 2003-2005 he acted as the Head Assistant Professor with the main teaching topics: knitting technology, design of textile and sewing machines, numerical methods in the Faculty of Applied Mathematics, technical mechanics (statistics, kinetics, dynamics, strength of materials) in the German Faculty for Engineering Education. After one year (2005-2006) at ITA- RWTH Aachen with Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship, he was appointed in 2006 as Professor at Hochschule Niederrhein-University of Applied Sciences, Mönchengladbach, Germany. In terms of teaching he was focused on: Textile Materials, Textile Technology – especially narrow woven and braided fabrics, Textile testing and quality management, Finite element modelling for textiles, Numerical simulation. In 2011 he founded the company TexMind UG, within which frame he provide industrial CAD software solutions for braiding, warp and weft knitting. In August 2019 he was appointet as professor and head of the Chair of development and assembly of textile products, ITM, TU Dresden. Germany. His team perform research in the area of 3D and 4D body scanning, functional clothing development and simulation, additive manufacturing, sewing and welding machines, automation and robotization in the apparel production. Prof. Kyosev is editor-in-chief of Journal of Engineered Fibers and Fabrics (IF 2.9); founder and co-editor in chief of the diamond open access journal “Communications in Development and Assembling of Textile Products” www.cdatp.org. He is author of the books “Braiding technology for textiles”, “Warp knitting Fabrics construction”, “Topology based modelling of textile fabrics and their assemblies”, many book chapters and co-author of more over fifty papers in peer review journals and many conference works.
