Vlado A. Lubarda received his mechanical engineering degree from the University of Montenegro in 1975, and his MS and PhD from Stanford University in 1977 and 1979. He has been an Assistant and Associate Professor at the University of Montenegro from 1980-1989, Fulbright Fellow and Visiting Associate Professor at Brown University from 1989-1991, and the Arizona State University from 1992-1997. Since 1998, he is an Adjunct Professor of Applied Mechanics in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering of the University of California, San Diego. He has done research work in the fields of elasticity, plasticity, viscoelasticity, dislocation theory, fracture and damage mechanics, thin films, biomechanics, and materials science. He is the author of numerous journal and conference publications, and three books: Strength of Materials (University of Montenegro Press, 1989), Elastoplasticity Theory (CRC Press, 2002), and Mechanics of Solids and Materials (Cambridge University Press, 2006). The latter two have been used as graduate mechanics textbooks at leading research universities in this country and abroad. Professor Lubarda serves on the editorial board of the Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. He is the recipient of the Barbara and Paul Saltman Distinguished Teaching Award, multiple Teacher of the Year Awards in the MAE Department, and two Tau Beta Pi Outstanding Teacher of the Year Awards.
