Biography - Vušanović Igor

I was born on May 13^th 1968 in Titograd, Yugoslavia. I graduated in elementary school “Maksim Gorki” 1982, then gymnasium Slobodan Skerovic 1986. I was enrolled at Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at University of Montenegro in fall 1987. After two successful years of studying I continued education at Faculty of Mechanical engineering of the University of Belgrade, where I graduated 1992 as a best students of generation.

I finish my master study with final work entitled as: “Analysis of ice making and melting processes, using modify enthalpy method in energy accumulators” 1996 at the University of Montenegro. My PhD study I finished in March 2002 with work entitled as: “Analysis of phase change phenomena in multicomponent systems with aspects of technical applications” at the University of Montenegro as well.

In the period of 2004 – 2005 I was a team leader of five international scientific projects: “Modeling of phase change in Al alloys” (2004, 2005), “Modeling of macro and micro segregation of ternary Al alloys obtained by DC casting and continuous casting of strips” (2006, 2007), “Multiscale modeling of continuous casting of steel” (2012, 2013) and “Modeling of industrial processes of solidification under the field of electromagnetic field” (2013, 2015) which are all realized in collaboration with Laboratory of multiphase processes of the University of Nova Gorica.  

During the 2004 and 2005 I worked on “Strategy of energy efficiency with action plan 2005 – 2006” gather with Prof. I. Vujosevic from Faculty of electrical engineering, which was adopted as official Government document in spring of 2005. I was a member of council for implementation of EE Strategy for Montenegro, which was established as an governmental body under the Ministry of economy of Government of Montenegro.

In the period of 2006 – 2007 I was a visiting scholar at the University of Birmingham (UK), FAST Laboratory of University of Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris, and Purdue University (USA) in the program of specialization of people of University of Montenegro.

I was a member of Council of Agency of Environmental Protection which has an authority for monitoring and preservation of environment. I’m an active member of Engineering Chamber of Montenegro since 2009.

During the 2010 I was working as a member of a team in capital project of Montenegrin Academy of Science and Arts (CANU) entitled as: “Montenegro in XXI century in the era of competitiveness” in the subproject ENERGY.

During the 2012 under the bilateral collaboration between Montenegro and China I collaborated with HOHAI University, NANJING, China I headed a project ˝Fast meshless simulation of heat transfer in large-scale thin-walled structures˝

In September 2012 I was a one of the organizers of scientific symposium called ICCES MM ’12 which gathered top world scientists in the field of meshless numerical methods organized under the cover of University of Montenegro, Ministry of Science of GoM and CONIC center of excellence from Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Since 2013 I was appointed as a President of assembly of mechanical engineering chamber in Montenegro.

In the period of 2012 – 2015 I worked as a member of Committee for energy licenses in the Ministry of Economy of GoM.

Since March 2016 I’m elected DEAN of Faculty of Mechanical engineering of UoM, and member of Senat of the University of Montenegro.

I speak, write and read English fluently, and I’m using Russian language too.

I’m married and father of 3 daughters.

 WORKING RECORD AND ACADEMIC PROMOTIONS

With an official scholarship of Ministry of education of GoM, I started as employee at Faculty of Mechanical engineering of the University of Montenegro in 1992 (official act no. 07/02-1654, June 24^th 1992.) and I was enrolled in master study on the same faculty.

I was appointed as an Assistant beginner February 1^st 1993 (official act no. 01-95, February 1^st 1993.)

I was appointed as an Assistant degree level on December 12^th 1996 (official act no. 01-906, December 13^th 1996.) for following classes: Thermodynamics, Refrigeration and Heating and ventilation. I practiced with students on subjects: Thermodynamics, Heat machines, Steam boilers, Refrigeration and Heating and ventilation.  

By the end of 2002 I was appointed in Assistant professor Level (official act no. 01-1087, December 27^th 2002) at the Faculty of Mechanical engineering for the following subjects: Numerical Heat Transfer, Measuring and simulation of energetic processes. At the time I was an faculty coordinator for international collaboration. I was a committee member for many diploma’s and master’s thesis at the Faculty of mechanical engineering and Faculty of Metallurgy and technology in the fields covered by Faculty of Mechanical engineering. I was actively participated in formation and equipping of Laboartory of energy processes and HVAC which was realized in accordance with donation of WUS Austria, Faculty of Mechanical engineering and private companies in Montenegro and Slovenia. Since 2002 I taught lectures in Thermodynamics for 6 years at the Faculty of maritime in Kotor.

During the spring of 2008 I was elected as Associate professor level (official act no. 01-566, April 1^st 2008.) for the following subjects: Numerical Heat Transfer, Measuring and simulation of energetic processes, and Thermodynamics.

By the end of June 2013 I was elected in Full Professor level (official act no. 08-1418, June 27^th 2013.) for the following subjects: Thermodynamics, Energy in transport, Numerical Heat Transfer and Measuring and simulation of energetic processes.
