Dr Karol Lewandowski
As a Research Software Engineer and a co-founder of Mesh-Oriented Solutions, I combine deep academic knowledge with extensive professional software development experience. My journey in finite element analysis began with a PhD at the University of Glasgow, leading to the co-development of MoFEM.
My contributions include numerical frameworks utilized in various fields, including biomechanics, nuclear energy and manufacturing and more. Skilled in crafting powerful Finite Element Method codes, primarily using modern C++, I also leverage modern development tools and methodologies for optimal efficiency and scalability.
My commitment is to provide innovative and effective numerical solutions, ensuring they meet the diverse and demanding needs. For a detailed overview of my professional background and project experience, please feel free to download my Curriculum Vitae.
Dr Andrei Shvarts
I am a co-founder and Scientific Director of Mesh-Oriented Solutions, and I also hold a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) position at the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow. Additionally, I am an academic member of the Glasgow Computational Engineering Centre.
After earning an MSc in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science (2014) from St. Petersburg Polytechnic University (alma mater of Boris Galerkin), I obtained a PhD in Computational Mechanics from École des Mines de Paris, receiving two national prizes for the best PhD in France (2019). I began contributing to MoFEM during my postdoc at the University of Glasgow, focusing on modelling fracture in graphite bricks of nuclear power plants in collaboration with EDF Energy (2019–2021).
In my current academic role, I lead projects developing and applying advanced simulation tools powered by MoFEM across structural, mechanical, electrical, and biomedical engineering. My work centres on novel, disruptive approaches to numerical modelling in engineering and applied physics, with a focus on industrial applications. My experience in developing MoFEM and supervising research and industry projects forms the foundation for my role as the Scientific Director of MOS.
Dr Łukasz Kaczmarczyk
I am a co-founder and Technical Director of Mesh-Oriented Solutions and a Professor of Applied Computational Modeling at the University of Glasgow in the Glasgow Computational Engineering Centre. I have nearly two decades of experience developing code for industrial applications. My software solutions are used by EDF and Jacobs for structural integrity problems in aggressive nuclear reactor environments. I also provide finite element technology solutions, working with companies such as Rolls-Royce, Siemens, and Freudenberg, on modeling wide range of industrial processes. I designed MoFEM, a unique finite element system that utilises emerging finite element technologies in industrial applications. MoFEM is developed to shorten the time between innovation and real-world application, providing the flexibility of research code while being tested and validated to comply with rigorous industrial standards.
