Education

1999 - MSc in Civil Engeneering-University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy – Sofia, Faculty of Civil Engineering
2008 - PhD in "Structural Mechanics, Strength of Materials"

Science Interests

Research in the fields of numerical methods and fracture mechanics, boundary element method (BEM) and its application for 2D elastostatics and elastodynamics.

Application of BEM for modelling of finite, semi-infinite, and infinite regions, containing different types of heterogeneities

Science Activity

Development and application of BEM in the following categories of problems:
(1) Fracture mechanics; (2) Micro-mechanics, modelling of finite regions containing different types of heterogeneities and inclusions; (3) Wave propagation in multi-layered geological regions; (4) nano-mechanics.
