  • Multiscale modeling of graphene and carbon nanotubes
  • Thin structures (plates, shells, linear and nonlinear)
  • Mechanics of biological tissues
  • Diffusion and remodelling in soft matter
  • Hydraulic fracture
  • Magneto-elastic rods
  • Auxetic metamaterials
  • Tensegrity dynamics
  • Non-standard thermoelasticity
  • Laser-pulsed heating in matter
  • Elasticity and geomechanics
  • Materials with memory
