Work in Progress
Biography:
Dr. Jonas Matijošius is a full professor in the Department of Automobile Engineering at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VILNIUS TECH), Lithuania. His research interests lie at the intersection of renewable energy, biofuel combustion, sustainable transportation, and emissions optimization. He has over 15 years of academic and applied research experience.
He has published extensively on:
- Alcohol-diesel and biodiesel blends for internal combustion engines
- Engine testing protocols and emissions mapping under EU standards
- Low-temperature combustion strategies for cold climates
- Lifecycle assessment (LCA) and environmental performance modeling
Prof. Matijošius collaborates with energy institutes and universities in Germany, Poland, Finland, and Baltic countries, and contributes to policy papers on fuel decarbonization in the EU transport sector.
He has authored more than 60 journal articles in international journals such as Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, Fuel, Transport, and Applied Energy. He is frequently invited as a keynote speaker and expert evaluator on biofuel and ICE integration research.
