Biography
Leon Chernin received his BEng in 1997, MEng in 1998 and subsequently MSc in 1999 from Samara State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (Samara, Russia). In 2004 he obtained his MSc from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology (Haifa, Israel) for research on delamination buckling of a thin film attached to a rigid substrate. In 2008 he was awarded a doctorate from the Technion for work on the effect of corrosion on the concrete-reinforcement interaction in reinforced concrete beams. During 2008-2012 he worked as a research associate at Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh, UK).
