Vladislav Mantič is Professor of Continuum Mechanics at the School of Engineering, University of Seville, where he is currently teaching Solid Mechanics, Elasticity, Fracture Mechanics, Plasticity, Viscoelasticity, Finite and Boundary Element Method. He graduated in mathematical engineering from the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University of Prague, receiving a degree with distinction and Rector Award in 1984. He received his doctorate from the Czech Academy of Sciences for his work on computer implementation of Boundary Element Method carried out at the Institute of Computer Science in Prague. Later he worked at the Institute of Materials and Machine Mechanics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Košice, and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Košice, Slovakia. His current research is focused on Fracture Mechanics, in particular on its applications to predict damage initiation and propagation in composites and their joints at different scales; interface crack analysis and modelling; stress singularity analysis in anisotropic multimaterial corners; non-classical approaches in Fracture Mechanics as the Coupled Criterion of Finite Fracture Mechanics, Cohesive Zone Models, Linear Elastic-Brittle Interface Model, energetic approaches to fracture, and Surface Elasticity models. He has collaborated and published joint articles in high impact journals with researchers from many universities and research institutions like, Charles University Prague, Colorado School of Mines, FORTH, Heraklion, IMT Lucca, Kansas State University, Lulea TU, National Physical Laboratory Teddington, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, POLITO, Italy, TU Braunschweig, TU Košice, University of Aberdeen, University of Brescia, University of Leeds, and the University of Minnesota (USA), He has published more than 100 articles in peer-reviewed international scientific journals, edited international edited books and devised 200 communications to national and international conferences. He is among the most influential and prestigious researchers in the world on the "World's Top 2% Scientists List" in the category of "Materials".
