A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Vesna Zegarac Leskovar is an associate professor in the field of Architecture and spatial planning at the University of Maribor, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Architecture (UM FGPA). After initially educating and working as an architect she received a Ph.D. in Architecture at the Technical University Graz, Faculty of Architecture. At UM FGPA she lectures courses on sustainable architecture, architectural structures and technology, energy-efficient building design with a special focus on timber buildings. Regarding her project work, she is a leader or a team member of numerous research and development projects carried out for national and European industrial partners, research organisations and also of numerous students workshops developing innovative ideas for local environment and national companies. Her research focuses on the issues related to sustainable building design covering the topics of energy efficiency, bioclimatic design, environmental assessment of buildings and building renovation. Her research work is published in numerous papers in international scientific journals indexed by JCR and SNIP, while she is also the author of many international conference contributions and publications. She is active as the reviewer for the most reputable international journals from the field of energy efficiency in buildings. In 2013 she published a scientific monograph "Energy-Efficient Timber-Glass Houses" by Springer Verlag, which was selected by Slovenian research agency (ARRS) as the best scientific contribution in civil engineering in Slovenia for the year 2013.

Miroslav Premrov was elected in the full professor degree for "Timber and concrete structures" in the year 2009. He is an author or a co-author of 45 research papers indexed by SCI and reviewer for the most reputable international journals in the field of civil engineering. He is an editorial board member of five international journals indexed by JCR. He is a co-author of a patent of a strengthened prefabricated timber-framed wall element. As a member of WG 5, he is active in preparations of Slovene standards in the field of timber structures. As a co-author he published in the year 2008 a university course book "Timber Structures" and in the year 2011 a scientific monograph "Experimental analysis on behaviour of timber-framed walls with different types of sheathing boards". In 2013 he published a scientific monograph "Energy-Efficient Timber-Glass Houses" by Springer Verlag, which was selected by Slovenian research agency (ARRS) as the best scientific contribution in civil engineering in Slovenia in this year.

From the year 1999 he has been actively dealing with the problems of strengthening in composite timber elements mainly used in multi-storey prefabricated timber buildings. In year 2010 he started with a wide research in timber-glass buildings interlaying structural and energy concepts. In the period from 2012 to 2016 he managed Slovenian research team of the international FP 7 project Wood Wisdom entitled "Load-bearing timber-glass composites" and was also at the same time responsible for the Work Package 6 "Testing on life-size specimen components".

Since 2009 he is a dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Architecture at University of Maribor and since 2017 he is a Slovenian presenter in EMC FEANI.
