Leon Mishnaevsky Jr. (born in Kyiv, Ukraine..[1]) is a Danish and German materials scientist. He is Senior Researcher at the Technical University of Denmark, Department of Wind Energy. His research interests include computational materials science and its application in renewable energy [2].

Life

edit

Mishnaevsky received his diploma in electromechanics from the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture, and his PhD from Mining Institute at North in Yakutsk, USSR. In 2005 he received his Dr. habil. (Habilitation) degree in mechanics from Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany. Since 2006, he is a Senior Researcher at the Risø National Laboratory and later at Technical University of Denmark.

Work

edit

Mishnaevsky is an author of the books “Computational Mesomechanics of Composites” [3], and “Damage and Fracture of Heterogeneous Materials” [4], and co-author of “Micromechanics and Nanosimulation of Metals and Composites” [5].

In 2011-2014, Mishnaevsky managed the European project “VINAT/Virtual Nanotitanium” ,[6] , devoted to the development of extra-durable titanium materials for dental implants [7]. The project involved also collaboration with scientific partners from Russia [8]. In this project, a prototype of a small diameter dental implant from extra-strong ultrafine-grained titanium material was developed and tested [9].. Mishnaevsky also managed Sino-Danish collaborative project devoted to development of new nanoengineered materials for wind energy [10], [11]. The result of this work was new understanding of microscale mechanisms of degradation of wind turbine blades [12].

Mishnaevsky coordinated testing and introduction of low-cost timber based wind turbines for independent energy generation in remote villages in Nepal in the framework the Danida development project "Development of wind enegy in Nepal" [13]. The technology of low cost, locally producible small wind turbines for decentralized energy generation was developed, and applied in Nepal[14] . The new low cost wooden wind turbines were installed at the Kusheswor secondary school, Dumja, Nepal, and in Phakhel site in Makawanpur district, Nepal [15]

In 2019, Mishnaevsky initiated a new project, directed to solve the problem of surface erosion of large offshore wind turbines [16], which represents a critical challenge for the development of wind energy in Europe [17]. The erosion of wind turbine blades can reduce the energy generation by several percents, and thus increases the costs of renewable energy for end users [18]. The project is carried out together with leading industrial manufacturers of wind turbines, Vestas, Siemens Gamesa and LM Wind Power[19]. An international symposium on the leading edge erosion of wind turbine blades, which took place in Denmark in 2020, attracted participants from around the world [20]. In 2020, Mishnaevsky initiated a collaboration with several Indian laboratories and institutions (IIT Delhi, CSIR-NAL, NIWE) and Indian wind turbine service companies, to optimize the technology of maintenance and repair of wind turbines [21], [22]

Awards

edit

In 2003, he received Heisenberg Fellowship of German Research Council (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG) [23] , [24]. In 2003, he was invited to Ecole Nationale Superieure d’Arts et Metiers (ENSAM, Paris, France), as Professeur invite. In 2016, Mishnaevsky was Guest Professor, at the China University of Mining and Technology/CUMT, in the Programme of Introducing Talents of Discipline to Universities. He was also awarded by Japan Science and Technology Agency (STA) Fellowship, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Invitation Fellowship and A. v. Humboldt Fellowship.
