Javier Bonet is a Professor of Engineering, currently Deputy Vice-chancellor for Research and Enterprise at the University of Greenwich and formerly Head of the College of Engineering at Swansea University. He has extensive experience of teaching topics in structural mechanics and dynamics, including large strain nonlinear solid mechanics, to undergraduate and graduate engineering students. He has been active in research in the area of computational mechanics for over thirty years with contributions in modeling superplastic forming, large strain solid dynamic analysis, membrane modeling, finite element technology including error estimation and meshless methods (smooth particle hydrodynamics). He has given invited, keynote, and plenary lectures on these topics at numerous international conferences.
