Biography

I am working at Glasgow University Jams Watt School of Engineering. I graduated with a Civil Engineering degree, s in Computational Mechanics from 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” (Numeryczna analiza wybranych problemów mechaniki ośrodków niejednorodnych).

Research interests

Research Interests

My main research interest is computational mechanics, focusing on modelling quasi-brittle materials, plasticity and finite element technology. I am particularly interested in approximation methods and solution techniques that are suitable for a materials with evolving geometries, f.e. fracturing, defragmentation, bone growth, plasticity and remodelling, etc.

Ongoing Projects

I am the lead developer and creator of MoFEM. MoFEM is a database for the Finite Element System. It is tailored to keep data for a multi-physics problem with an arbitrary approximation level and different mesh refinements levels.

Brittle fracture in nuclear graphite

In this project, I am working on fracture in Nuclear-Graphite supported by EDF Energy. I develop theory, numerical methods and robust implementation for 3d crack propagation. EDF and Jacobs u my method for crack propagation to assess the structural integrity of Advanced Gass Cooled nuclear reactors.

Predictive Modelling for Incremental Cold Flow Forming

In this project supported by EPSRC (EP/T008415/1), I am building predictive models for incremental cold flow forming (ICFF) is a metal forming process for high-quality production rotationally-symmetric, hollow engineering components as widely u by the aerospace, automotive and oil & gas sectors.
