AGH University of Krakow, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics, Department of Power Systems and Environmental Protection Facilities, Poland
Dr. Wojciech Bronisław Ciesielka earned his PhD in Technical Sciences at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics in 2002 and has been a faculty member at the Department of Power Systems and Environmental Protection Facilities since 2009, after working at the Department of Mechanics and Vibroacoustics from 1994 to 2009. As founder and mentor of the student scientific club “MechaBajt,” he has supervised over 200 student papers, 5 engineering theses, 125 master’s theses, and co-supervised 2 doctoral dissertations, guiding 14 award-winning theses in faculty competitions and one recognized in “DIAMONDS of AGH.” His research spans intelligent systems, mechanical engineering, robotics, energy and environmental protection systems, and sound engineering, with a focus on designing innovative solutions such as signal-processor-based sound control systems, industrial noise protection, drone control, and methods to improve reliability of power distribution lines under icing conditions. Notable achievements include the patented System for Active Noise Reduction (PL188803B1), Acoustic Maps for Kraków, Katowice, and Warsaw, the Acoustic Climate Management System for Kraków, and control solutions implemented during World Youth Day 2016 in Kraków. His ongoing research addresses reducing fuel and energy consumption in transport and construction. He has collaborated with AGH University of Krakow, Silesian University of Technology, the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, PZL Świdnik, Building Research Institute, CIOP–PIB, ArcelorMittal Poland, the Marshal’s Office of the Małopolska Region, and the City of Kraków Office. He is an active member of the Polish Acoustical Society and the League for Noise Prevention, Kraków Branch. With more than 80 publications in indexed journals and conference proceedings, Dr. Ciesielka’s work has garnered significant recognition with over 500 citations and an h-index of 12, reflecting his sustained contributions to sound engineering, intelligent systems, and environmental protection innovations.
