PROJEKT PREDSTAVLJEN GOSTUJUĆEM PROFESORU

Prof.dr.sc. Nenad Gucunski je profesor i predstojnik Fakulteta građevinarstva i okolišnog inženjerstva na Rutgers University, državnom Sveučilištu u New Jersey-u. Njegovu karijeru obilježio je projekt RABIT (Robotics Assisted Bridge Inspection Tool) u kojem je razvijen robotski sustav za ispitivanje mostova. Za ovo dostignuće, profesor Gucunski 2014. godine dobiva prestižnu nagradu Charles Pankow, koju dodjeljuje Američko društvo građevinskih inženjera (eng. ASCE).

Profesor Gucunski je gostovao Građevinskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu u periodu 24.-26. kolovoza, te smo tu priliku iskoristili za predstavljanje projekta ASAP. Tom je prilikom projektna doktorandica Ksenija Tešić predstavila istraživanje u okviru svog doktorskog rada, te se diskutiralo i o mogućoj suradnji uzimajući u obzir profesorovu stručnost u tome području.

PROJECT PRESENTED TO THE VISITING PROFESSOR

Nenad Gucunski is a professor and chair of the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering at Rutgers University, a state university in New Jersey. His career was marked by the RABIT (Robotics Assisted Bridge Inspection Tool) project in which a robotic bridge testing system was developed. For this achievement, Professor Gucunski received the prestigious Charles Pankow Award in 2014, given by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).

Professor Gucunski visited the Faculty of Civil Engineering University of Zagreb in the period of 24th to 26th August, and we used this opportunity to present the ASAP project. On that occasion, project doctoral student Ksenija Tešić presented the research within her doctoral dissertation, and possible cooperation was discussed, taking into account the professor’s expertise in this field.
