Ivana Kovacic is a Full Professor of Mechanics at the Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad, Serbia. She got her undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering in Mechanics and Mechanical Design at the Faculty of Technical Sciences of the University of Novi Sad. She got her Master and PhD degrees at the same faculty in Mechanics. She has passed through all the academic titles at the same faculty, starting from a teaching assistant to a full professor, which is a position she gained in 2014.
During her MSc studies, she was a fellow of the Ministry of Science of the Republic of Serbia. He was also a recipient of a scholarship from the Ministry of Science of the Republic of Serbia for her postdoctoral education in the Institute of Sound and Vibrations ISVR of the University of Southampton, UK. She has been a Visiting Professor at the Institute of Sound and Vibration of the University of Southampton, the University of Sheffield, and the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK. Since 2014, she has been an honorary foreign member of the Academy of Sciences and Arts of the Marche, Italy.
Her main expertise is related to nonlinear oscillations, their modelling, analytical investigations of their behaviour and associated phenomena. She has published more than 80 journal papers in the best relevant journals in her fields and three research monographs by John Wiley & Sons and Springer.
Ivana Kovacic is a Receiving Editor and Deputy-Editor-in-Chief in Journal of Sound and Vibration (Elsevier). She also served as a Subject Editor for Nonlinear Oscillations in Journal of Sound and Vibration (Elsevier), Mechanics Research Communication (Elsevier), European Journal of Mechanics A - Solids (Elsevier), Meccanica (Springer) and Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, Part C (SAGE).
She is the Head of the Center for Vibration-Acoustic Systems and Signal Processing CEVAS at her faculty, which received the status of the Center of Excellence from the highest Serbian research authorities - the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development twice: in 2015 and 2020.
