Dr Zbigniew Czyż is a staff member of the Aeronautics Faculty at the Polish Air Force University (science 2018) where he holds the position of assistant professor. He graduated with a specialization in the construction and exploitation of aircraft propulsion systems. He is the author of 58 reviewed papers and scientific publications, editor of 11 monographs and author of 10 chapters of monograph. He co-authored 4 patents and 16 patent applications. Two of them were awarded by international organizations, e.g. gold medal at the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva in 2016, gold medal at the 10th International Warsaw Exhibition of Inventions IWIS 2016, special award from the First Institute of Researchers and Inventors (Iran) at the 44th International Exhibition of Inventions "Geneva Inventions", gold medal granted by the Chinese Innovation & Invention Society (Taiwan) and silver medal granted by Association of Polish Inventors and Rationalisers during the International Warsaw Inventions Exhibition – IWIS 2013. Worker in many projects in the field of aviation propulsion systems and fluid mechanics. His main area of research involves computational fluid dynamics, heat transfer and aerodynamics. The research is aimed at the practical application and cooperation between science and enterprises.

Prof. Jerzy Józwik is a Head of Department of Production Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Lublin University of Technology and staff member of The State School of Higher Education in Chełm, where he holds the positions of Deputy Director of the Institute of Technical Studies and Aviation and Head of the Engineering Studies Centre. Józwik is the Director of the Office of the Polish Metrological Union established by the Minister of Education and Science. He is a member of numerous scientific societies including the Lublin Scientific Society, the Polish Society of Engineers and Mechanics, the Polish Society of Production Management, and the Polish Welding Society, where, since 2015, he has held the position of Chairman of the Scientific and Technical Section of the Polish Welding Society, Lublin Branch. In 2020 he was honoured with the Medal of the National Education Commission (KEN Medal), awarded for special services to education and upbringing by the Polish Minister of National Education. In 2018 he was honoured with the Silver Cross of Merit and in 2011 Bronze Cross of Merit from the President of the Republic of Poland. He is also a member of various scientific committees and scientific conference organizing committees, both domestically and internationally. He is the author of over 220 reviewed papers and scientific publications, author of one monograph and co-author of two monographs, the editor of one monograph and a co-editor of two monographs. He co-authored two patents, two utility models and three patent applications, expert opinions concerning innovations for industry. He holds certificates related to the operation of machines and numerically contro lled devices, CNC machine tools, robots, cutters, tool setting system operation, CNC machine tool diagnostic systems, microscopes, and optical tools utilized in reverse engineering and research. He is also a member of scientific committees and a reviewer for scientific jurnals (like: Measurement, Materials, ASTRJ - Advances in Science and Technology Research Journal, Journal Tehnički vjesnik – Technical Gazette) as well as a reviewer and member of the jury in a national competition for Best Master Thesis organized by Sandvik Coromant in Poland.
