Hello there! You have just landed on my personal scientific webpage, where most of the studies published by our research group over the years are collected, along with databases and various supplementary materials. More detailed information can be discovered by visiting our other resources:

Please do not hesitate to contact my colleagues and me — we are always open to collaborations and discussions of interesting proposals and ideas.

Research Directions

  1. Modelling of Plasticity and Fracture Processes

  2. Computational Materials Characterisation

  3. Composite Materials Design

Research Methods

  1. We eagerly employ results from several branches of discrete mathematics, including combinatorics, algebraic topology, probability and graph/network theories.

  2. The physical background for our research is non-equilibrim thermodynamics and mechanics of materials.

  3. Finally, we are deeply rooted in the achievements of computational mechanics using our original C++/Python codes for multidimensional and multiscale simulations (including HPC) alongside more conventional continuous-based FEM and finite-difference codes.

Applications

  1. Genetic design of complex-structured metal matrix (MMC) and ceramic matrix (CMC) composites.

  2. Smart materials for Space and Nuclear applications: self-adapting and self-healing metamaterial structures for operation in extreme environments.

  3. Processing design of high-speed/high-temperature material manufacturing processes, including nanocomposites.

News and Updates

Our NEW 2026 paper is devoted to the increase in fracture toughness of high-temperature ceramic nanocomposites with graphene inclusions.
