Erwin Wojtczak

Erwin Wojtczak is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mechanics of Materials and Structures, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Gdańsk University of Technology. He obtained his doctoral degree (dr inż.) in Civil Engineering, Geodesy and Transport in November 2022.

His research focuses on:

• Guided wave propagation for structural health monitoring
• Non-destructive testing of adhesive joints and concrete structures
• Ultrasonic wave propagation in heterogeneous materials
• Additive manufacturing and metamaterials for civil engineering applications
• Damage detection and fracture process characterization

Dr. Wojtczak's recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on applying ultrasonic and wave-based techniques for structural diagnostics. His work spans concrete structures, adhesive joints, and additively manufactured components, with emphasis on developing novel non-destructive evaluation methods. He has published extensively in journals such as Ultrasonics, Journal of Building Engineering, and Materials.

His scientific achievements include 9 recognized contributions to the field, though specific awards are not detailed in the available information.

Dr. Wojtczak actively supervises student theses and leads research projects, including the PRELUDIUM project "Development of a method for identification of parameters and damage detection in additive manufactured composite elements using ultrasonic wave propagation." He is also involved with the Scientific Circle of Structural Mechanics KOMBO as a scientific supervisor.

He is a member of research teams focused on material strength and structural mechanics, collaborating with industry partners in construction-related fields.
