Hrvoje Kozmar is a Full Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Zagreb's Faculty of Science. His research focuses on fluid dynamics, aerodynamics, and environmental engineering, with particular emphasis on wind energy systems, atmospheric boundary layer flows, and structural dynamics. His work addresses challenges in offshore engineering, wind turbine design, and urban building aerodynamics. Professor Kozmar has contributed to advanced computational models for hydrodynamic loads on offshore structures, turbulence effects on tall buildings, and wind energy harvesting systems. His studies on Bora wind dynamics and rotor blade aerodynamics highlight interdisciplinary applications in meteorology and renewable energy. Key projects include surrogate modeling for offshore monopiles, numerical simulations of wave-current interactions, and experimental studies on porous double-skin façades for wind load mitigation. He has collaborated on wind farm layouts, cable-supported bridge stability, and aerodynamic optimization of vehicles.
