This Special Session is dedicated to aspects related to manufacturing and metrology in the aerospace industry. It presents an interesting opportunity for engineers and researchers to provide an increasing of knowledge and easier diffusion of the most recent developments related to manufacturing and metrology in the aerospace field.

This session is focused on the one hand on the metrological aspects of manufacturing parts for the aerospace industry like: measurements of aircraft structures and aerospace materials, on the other hand on the aspect of aviation manufacturing like: advanced diagnostic systems of machines, monitoring and optimization of manufacturing process and optimization of difficult-to-cut materials.

Topics for this Special Session include:

• Advanced diagnostic systems of machines in aerospace manufacturing;
• Machine measurement systems and their control;
• Diagnostics of robots during the manufacture of aircraft parts;
• Monitoring and optimization of manufacturing processes in aerospace production;
• Metrology and optimization of geometrical and physical parameters of surface integrity;
• Optimization of difficult-to-cut materials;
• Surface metrology in aerospace manufacturing;
• Friction and wear measurement of aerospace materials and composites;
• Measurement and modeling of aircraft structures.

Prof. Jerzy Józwik, is a professor at the Department of Production Engineering of 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 controlled 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 journals (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.

Magdalena Zawada-Michałowska, (Ph.D. Eng.) is an assistant professor at the Department of Production Engineering at the Lublin University of Technology. In 2020 by the decision of the Scientific Discipline Council of Mechanical Engineering of the Lublin University of Technology received a doctoral degree with honours in the field of engineering and technical sciences in the discipline of mechanical engineering. The doctoral dissertation concerned the deformation of thin-walled elements after milling. In her scientific work, she focuses on issues related to the technology of machining of thin-walled elements, especially aircraft, as well as metrology of geometric quantities. Magdalena Zawada-Michałowska is a co-author of many scientific publications in reputable scientific journals indexed in leading databases, such as: Web of Science and Scopus. She has repeatedly participated in national and international scientific conferences, presenting the latest scientific achievements. In addition, she cooperates with aviation companies in the implementation of research projects.
