Biography
I have been a lecturer at the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Glasgow since September 2010. I graduated with Civil Engineering degree, specializing in Computational Mechanics, form Cracow University of Technology, Poland. My doctoral studies were undertaken at the same institution, which I defended with distinction in 2006. My PhD thesis was entitled “Numerical analysis of multi-scale problems in mechanics of heterogeneous materials”
Research Interest
My main research interest is computational mechanics, with the current focus on modeling of quasi-brittle materials. I am particularly interested in approximation methods and solution techniques which are suitable for analysis of materials with evolving geometries, f.e. fracturing, defragmentation, bone growth and remodeling, etc. I put emphasis on accuracy of approximation methods and implicit solutions strategies, although numerical efficiency of algorithms is important as well.
