ledkov

My name is Alexander Ledkov. I am an Associate Professor of the Theoretical Mechanics Department at Samara State Aerospace University. I also joint appointment as a Senior Researcher at the Mechanics Research Laboratory at the same university.

In 2010 I received my Ph.D. in Theoretical Mechanics from Samara State Aerospace University. My research contributions are in space flight mechanics, nonlinear and chaotic dynamics.

As a researcher, I have published a book and 25 studies (5 in english) in prestigious peer-reviewed journals on topics related to space tethered systems, space elevator, and re-entry vehicle dynamics. I have presented my research at various scientific conferences. My contribution was recognized by the “Young Scientist” regional competition award (Samara region, Russia, 2013).

My teaching activity include giving lectures on the Nonlinear Dynamics, and Space Tethered Systems courses, and running workshops on Theoretical Mechanics.
