Research Interests

Finite element technology for highly non-linear analysis including:

·        Incompressible limit,

·        Strain-localization,

·        Tensile cracking.

Non-linear constitutive modelling for coupled thermo-mechanical problems including:

·        Plasticity and damage behavior,

·        Non-Newtonian laws,

·        Phase-change analysis.

Numerical simulation of metal forming processes for the manufacturing industry such as:

·        Additive Manufacturing (AM) by metal deposition,
