Csaba Antonya

Prof. Csaba Antonya (project leader), starting from 2007 is a Professor at the Department of Automotive and Transport Engineering (ATE), with teaching activities in Mechanisms, Multi-body dynamics, Simulations in automotive engineering, Autonomous Vehicles. His area research is centered on multi-body dynamics, virtual reality, dynamic simulations, haptics, human-computer interaction, and autonomous vehicles. He is the owner and the coeditor of the portal presenting solutions for autonomous car simulations (www.autocarsim.com – under development). He was director of three national projects (CNCSIS funded: Real-time simulation of multi-body systems with rigid and flexible elements, Virtual reality interface for linkage simulation using multi-body theory Cognitive interaction of human – virtual environment for engineering applications), technical director of three international projects: FP5: IRMA A Configurable Virtual Reality System for Multi-Purpose Industrial Manufacturing Applications, FP6: ADEPT Advanced Computer-Aided Design of Ecological Products Technologies Integrating Green Energy Sources, FP7: ARTreat Multi-level patient-specific artery and atherogenesis model for outcome prediction, decision support treatment, and virtual hand-on training and member of several others. He is the author of more than 100 publications, with more than 20 in the domain of this project, and has 3 Ph.D. students and 4 graduated Ph.D. students.
