E. S. Gevorkyan
Doctor of technical sciences, Professor of Department “Quality, standardization, certification and manufacturing technology of products” at Ukrainian State
University of Railway Transport, Kharkiv, Ukraine. E. S. Gevorkyan graduated with
award from K. Marx Yerevan Polytechnic Institute in 1982 and after several years
of industrial experience became a postgraduate student and junior researcher at
Institute for Superhard Materials of National Academy of Science of Ukraine, Kiev,
where he prepared his thesis in 1990. From 1992 to 2003 he was a senior researcher
and associate professor of National Technical University “Kharkov Polytechnic
Institute” (Ukraine), and since 2003 he is with Ukrainian State University of Railway
Transport, Kharkiv, Ukraine. He was awarded the scientific degree in 2008, and was
assigned an academic status in 2010. Research interests include the development of
composite materials based on multifunctional purpose powders of refractory materials and metals and manufacturing methods based on sintering.
By the end of 2020, the total number of publications authored or co-authored by
E. S. Gevorkyan was 286, including 240 articles, 46 conference abstracts, 32 patents
(including US and EU patents), and 5 textbooks published in Ukrainian, approved by
the Ministry of Education of Ukraine.
In 1994–1996 he took part in the project INTAS “Research of Properties of New
Composite Cutting Tool Materials.” In 2000–2003 he was a lead for the project
STCU 2605 (NASA) “Development of Composite Material to Clean Emissions,”
financed by the United States and Canada. In 2019 E. S. Gevorkyan was a visiting
professor at Yibin University – Vocational and Technical College (China, Sichuan,
Ibin), and from 2019 till present a visiting professor at Kazimierz Pulaski University
of Technology and Humanities in Radom (Poland, EU).
