Scientific Personal Identification Number: 349904
Maja Mahnić Naglić was born August 30, 1984, in Slavonski Brod. In 2009 she finished her bachelor’s degree in Textile Technology and Engineering, Clothing Engineering at University of Zagreb Faculty of Textile Technology. In 2011, she finished her master’s degree in Textile Technology and Engineering, Industrial Clothing Design at University of Zagreb, Faculty of Textile Technology. Master thesis entitled “Development of garment computer parametric prototype” was made under mentorship of Assoc. Prof. Slavenka Petrak, Ph.D. In April, 2013 she started her doctoral studies Textile Science and Technology at University of Zagreb, Faculty of Textile Technology.
In 2010 she won Rector’s award from University of Zagreb, for scientific research paper entitled “Investigation and development of computer parametric garment model” which was made under mentorship of Assoc. Prof. Slavenka Petrak, Ph.D. In 2011 she won Dean’s award for achieved great success during her master studies and active participating in Faculty promotion.
After graduation, from 2011 till 2015 she worked as an external associate in Department of clothing technology at Faculty of Textile Technology, University of Zagreb, on practical courses from the field of computer-aided design, computer garment construction and 3D simulations of clothing. In October 2015 she started her academic career at University of Zagreb, Faculty of Textile Technology where she is employed as an assistant. At university studies she has been involved in undergraduate and graduate courses: Computer clothing construction, Computer clothing design I, Computer clothing design II, CAD/CAM in clothing engineering, Clothing construction IV, Elements of clothing design and Clothing design for industry and at professional studies courses: Computer clothing construction.
Her scientific research activity is in technical science, computer construction of garment according to individual measurements and 3D clothing simulations, development of computer 3D parametric garment prototypes, anthropometric measurements and analysis of body shapes and types using 3D body scanner and development of functional garments based on dynamic anthropometrics. She independently works in greater number of computer programs CAD/CAM of Lectra Systems and CAD systems of Optitex and Human Solutions and on several computer programs from the field of computer graphics and 3D modelling.
As a co-author she published 1 original scientific paper published in journal indexed in Current Content (CC), 2 original scientific papers in other journals, 1 published invited lecture and 7 scientific conference papers with international peer-review.
In 2013 she participated in creative workshop “Intelligent clothing” organized within the CEEPUS Winter School – Design Week 2013. Lecturers: Prof. Dubravko Rogale Ph.D., Prof. Snježana Firšt Rogale Ph.D., Prof. Jelka Geršak Ph.D. In 2015, within CEEPUS network CIII-SI-0217-07-1415, she spent five months on University of Maribor, Faculty of mechanical engineering, where she attended practical training for measuring and evaluation of physical and mechanical characteristics of textile materials using Kawabata Evaluation System (KES) and Fybric Assurance by Simple Testing (FAST) under the supervision of Prof. J. Geršak, Ph.D.
