Head:
Prof. Yuriy Plevachuk
Head of Research & Development Department at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv Ukraine
Yuriy Plevachuk is Professor of the Metal Physics Department and Head of Research & Development Department at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Ukraine. He received his Ph.D. degree in molecular physics “Experimental investigations of liquid-liquid equilibrium in metal and semiconductor liquid alloys” (1995) and Doctor of Science degree in Metal Physics “Macro- and microsegregation in the monotectic and eutectic metal melts” (2012) from Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. He was a lecturer at Lviv Polytechnic National University and carried out mobility activities for teaching in the frame of the ERASMUS+ Program at the University of Miskolc, Hungary.
Current subjects of his research are thermophysical properties of liquid metals and alloys; correlation between structure and structure-sensitive characteristics; critical phenomena and phase transitions in metal alloys. He has received several awards among which the IUPAC Poster Prise at 12th Inter. Conference HTMC-XII. He is the author or co-author of more than 150 scientific papers in refereed journals, 5 books and 3 book chapters. Professor Plevachuk is the associate editor of Journal of Physical Studies.
