Prof. Janusz Adamiec, PhD, DSc, Eng., academic teacher, welding engineer, materials technologist, graduated from the Silesian University of Technology in 1995 at the Faculty of Materials Engineering, Metallurgy, Transport and Management, majoring in materials engineering, specialization: metallic materials, then in 2000 he obtained the degree of doctor of technical sciences and in 2011 the degree of habilitated doctor of technical sciences in the discipline of materials engineering. In 2019, he was awarded the academic title of professor of technical sciences. Prof. Janusz Adamiec completed postgraduate studies: International Welding Engineer EWE
– Institute of Welding 1999; Management based on the MBA structure
– Warsaw School of Economics – Postgraduate Management Studies (MBA structure) 2002; Organization Management – Silesian University of Technology, Faculty of Organization and Management 2005; Quality and environmental management in transport
– Silesian University of Technology, Faculty of Transport 2005;
He supplemented his scientific experience during internships and internships abroad, m.in. at Sandvik AB in Sweden, at the Otto von Guericke University in Germany and at the Technical University of Košice in Slovakia (1999).
In the years 2010 – 2012 he was the Vice-Dean for Organization and Development of the Faculty of Materials Science and Metallurgy; since 2013 a member of the doctoral committee in the field of production engineering; currently he is the Vice-Dean for Organization and Development of the Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering and the head of the Department of Metallurgy and Recycling;
In his professional work related to the production of components for the power industry and the assembly of boilers for the commercial power industry, mainly waste heat boilers, he deals with the latest joining technologies used for heat-resistant and heat-resistant materials, including the latest nickel alloys. The main research areas are studies of the structure and properties of high-strength steel joints made by high-energy welding methods; Weldability intermetallic matrix materials and duplex steels; welding and surfacing technologies of modern steels and nickel alloys used in the energy industry; weldability of new materials for aviation, with particular emphasis on magnesium alloys and nickel alloys.
Author of two monographs, author or co-author of over 400 articles in national and foreign journals, delivered over 120 papers and author of 11 national and 2 European patents, supervisor of 5 doctoral theses and another 4 currently being implemented.
