Stefan Berinde

Stefan Berinde is a Lecturer in Mathematics at the Babes-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, within the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science. He holds a Ph.D. in Mathematics focusing on celestial dynamics, specifically The Origin and Evolution of Celestial Bodies Gravitating in the Vicinity of Earth's Orbit. His research interests span Astronomy (solar system dynamics, NEO studies), Computer Science (numerical integration algorithms, software development), and Recreational Mathematics (puzzle design and analysis).

• Developed the SolSyIn package for simulating solar system dynamics using the Radau-Everhart integrator.
• Teaches courses like Mathematical Analysis for Computer Science and maintains online educational resources.
• Active in astrophotography and programming tools (e.g., WinGraph unit for graphics).

Research focuses on gravitational dynamics, orbital mechanics, and numerical methods. Projects include modeling asteroid trajectories and exploring chaotic systems through software like SolSyIn. No scientific awards or grants explicitly mentioned.
