His research focuses on vehicle safety and the biomechanics of human injury in car crashes. Additionally, he explores the dynamics of machines, transport systems, and automotive diagnostics. Professor Jaskiewicz has a prolific research career with over 230 publications. He has authored a scientific monograph, contributed chapters to 13 monographs, co-authored 3 academic books and 1 textbook. His research has been presented at 65 national and international scientific conferences. Professor Jaskiewicz's innovative spirit is evident in his 19 co-authored patents, with 2 successfully implemented. He has also supervised nearly 100 graduates and managed two research projects funded by the National Centre for Research and Development in Poland. He actively participates in research teams on various projects and holds memberships in numerous domestic and foreign scientific and technical societies. Professor Jaskiewicz has served on the organizing committees of numerous international scientific and technical conferences. Further demonstrating his dedication to his field, Professor Jaskiewicz has completed 26 international internships and spent a year at the Polish Automotive Industry Institute.

Prof. Rafal Jurecki received his Doctor of Engineering degree in Machine Construction and Operation with a specialization in Vehicle Dynamics and Construction from the Faculty of Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering at Kielce University of Technology in 2006. In 2017, he earned his habilitation degree in Transport from the Faculty of Transport at Warsaw University of Technology. Currently, prof. Jurecki serves as the head of the Department of Automotive Engineering and Transport. A prolific researcher, Prof. Jurecki has authored nearly 180 articles and holds 14 patents. His primary research interests focus on vehicle dynamics modelling, vehicle testing, driver behaviour research and modelling, vehicle diagnostics, and vehicle operation, including electric vehicles.

Dr. Emilia M. Szumska holds a Doctor of Science in Transport from Warsaw University of Technology (March 2019). Her doctoral thesis focused on evaluating hybrid propulsion systems for urban buses. Since 2019, she has been an Assistant Professor in the Department of Automotive Engineering and Transport at Kielce University of Technology. Dr. Szumska's research interests focus on electric and hybrid vehicles. She investigates vehicle dynamics and control, design and optimization, energy efficiency analysis, the impact of driving conditions, and life cycle assessments. Her contributions include 59 publications and a patent application.
