About

Bronislaw Gepner received his Master of Science degree from the Warsaw University of Technology in Civil Engineering in the spring of 2009. For two years, during his Master’s program he worked as a structural engineer in the Pro-Invest structural design office in Warsaw, Poland. In the fall of 2009 he entered the PhD program at the Florida State University. Until October 2014, he worked as a research assistant at the Crashworthiness and Impact Analysis Laboratory supervised by Dr. Jerry Wekezer and was assigned to work on the “Crashworthiness Evaluation of Paratransit Buses” Florida Department of Transportation project. During his PhD program most of his work pertained to the Finite Element Analysis related to paratransit bus safety. In October 2014, Dr. Gepner joined the research team at the Center for Applied Biomechanics, where his work focuses on finite element modeling, numerical support of experiments, and massively parallel computing. His areas of interest are occupant safety, human body modeling and vehicle crashworthiness.
