UNIVERSITATEA TEHNICĂ "GHEORGHE ASACHI" IAŞI
Researcher | Teaching staff | Scientific reviewer | Consultant | PhD supervisor
Viorel Paleu holds the position of a habilitated full professor in mechanical engineering since October 2021. He became a part of the "Gheorghe Asachi" Technical University of Iasi in Romania in September 1996, where he successfully earned his Doctor of Philosophy degree in Mechanical Engineering with Magna Cum Laude distinction in 2002 from the same institution. During his doctoral studies and subsequent post-doctoral fellowship, he spent approximately 2 years at INSA de Lyon in France. Having served on more than 70 peer review panels of WoS-indexed journals (over 750 reviews for Elsevier, IOP, Emerald, Taylor& Francis, SAGE, and MDPI), his expertise in evaluation is highly regarded. In recognition of his contributions, Dr. Paleu was elected Vice-President of the Romanian Tribology Association (ART) and has served as the President of the Romanian Transmissions Association in Iași since 2008. In 2024, he was elected Vice-Dean for Scientific Research and Quality.

Abstract:
The Complex Project "OBTAINING AND EXPERTISE OF NEW BIOCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS FOR MEDICAL APPLICATIONS" - MedicalMetMat, is proposed by a consortium of 10 partners, coordinated by Technical Univ."Gh. Asachi" of Iasi. It is a complementary and interdisciplinary scientific consortium of specialists from 2 technical universities (TUIASI and UPBucharest), 2 medicine universities (UMF Iasi, UMF Tg Mures), a veterinary medicine university (USAMV Iaşi), UAIC Iasi and UDJG Galati universities and as well 3 R&D institutes with possibilities for economic recovery (IFT Iasi, INOE Magurele and ICPE-CA). The consortium proposes the realization of 5 research projects, 4 focusing on the production and expertise of metallic biomaterials for various medical applications (biodegradable materials for orthopedics-Pr1-ORTOMAG, biomaterials for medical prosthesis-Pr2-BioTIT, biomaterials for dental applications-Pr3-BIODENTRUT and biocompatible alloys with high entropy for medical applications-Pr4-HEAMED). These projects provided production stages, structural/physico-chemical/mechanical analyses performed by specialists from technical universities and research institutes; In vitro cell viability tests, conducted by specialists from the medicine universities and in vivo determinations (veterinary specialists) by osseointegration study and the resorption rate by animal experimental model, which will conduct to the expertise and approval of these metallic materials for the manufacturing of medical applications. Project Pr5-SOLION presents methods for increasing biocompatibility for the obtained biomaterials in the previous 4 projects, through specific coatings and aerosols systems.
Results dissemination of the Complex Project is aimed to patenting and recommending for the approval of optimal compositions, for implementation in the economic/medical environment and preparation of technology transfer to producers and beneficiaries in the field of production and distribution of medical devices.
