**Vladimir Titarev**

Vladimir Titarev, Ph.D., DSc, is Principal Researcher at the Federal Research Center "Computer Science and Control"of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Professor at the Department of Computer Science and Computational Mathematics of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Professor Titarev obtained the Candidate of Sciences degree from Bauman Moscow State Technical University in 2003 and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Trento, Italy in 2005. In 2018, Professor Titarev presented his habilitation at Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics and was awarded the Doctor of Sciences degree. His research interests include the Boltzmann equation with model collision integrals, hyperbolic conservation laws and numerical methods, very high-order essentially non-oscillatory methods in particular, for partial differential equations with applications in gas dynamics, rarefied flows, reactive multiphase flows as well as non-linear elasticity. Before joining the Federal Research Center "Computer Science and Control" of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2011, he worked at the University of Trento, Italy, and Cranfield University, UK.
