I'm delighted to share that yesterday I successfully defended my #Thesis on "Instabilities in flat and warped panels under shear" at @imperialcollege
Many sincerest thanks to my expert supervisors @ahmerwadee @LeroyGardner10 for their support and guidance over these 4 years

Delighted to report that our latest #openaccess paper in Thin-Walled Structures on shear resistance of steel I-section girders has been published. This is work led by @ll_lpr, written in collaboration with @LeroyGardner10.

"My plan to have 50 hamburgers for dinner are entirely consistent with my plan to reduce my cholesterol"...
.@RishiSunak says new licences for drilling North Sea oil and gas are 'entirely consistent with our plan to get to net zero'
He says domestic oil and gas saves 'two, three, four times the amount of carbon emissions' than shipping from abroad itv.com/news/2023-07-30/suna…

A very pleasant surprise to receive a hard copy of the actual Philosophical Transactions A of @royalsociety special issue on probing. @ll_lpr @JiajiaShen1 @alberto_pirrera @LeroyGardner10
A novel structural health monitoring system based on probing developed and published in a theme issue of Philosophical Transactions A of @royalsociety. Nice to apply a combination of nonlinear mechanics and machine learning techniques.

Proud to share our contribution to a special issue in Phil. Trans. A of @royalsociety. We demonstrate a strategic combination of probing techniques and #MachineLearning to accurately predict the in-situ strength of PSCs. We're developing this further, so watch this space for more

Congratulations to our own @FionaWalport who has been announced as one of the new UK Young Academy Members!
We are very happy to announce the first members of the #UKYoungAcademy! Our first cohort brings together people from across academia, charities and the private sector to share skills, knowledge and experience to face some of society's biggest challenges: ukyoungacademy.org/uk-young-…

As a supervisor,one isn't supposed to have favourite students, but I'll make an exception for @ll_lpr who passed his PhD today. An absolutely brilliant student in all aspects. Well done Luke! Or as we now must call you, "Dr Lapira"!
@ICNonlinearMech @ICSteelStruct
Our work on #shear #buckling of thin-walled #steel I-sections has now been published with #OpenAccess! Get in touch if you'd like to find out more, and watch this space to find out how this methodology is used to accurately and reliably predict the I-section shear resistance
Technically complex determination of elastic buckling stresses of thin webs in steel I-sections under shear and bending is addressed in our latest paper in Thin-Walled Structures. Work led by @ll_lpr and co-authored with @LeroyGardner10. @ICSteelStruct

Research from the EU project @dambuckler led by Anton Koellner has been published in the European Journal of Mechanics A/Solids. We present a novel energy based modelling approach for buckling problems incorporating material damage. @ICNonlinearMech

Word of the day (again) is ‘arsle’ (19th century): to go backwards on a task rather than progress it. Literally to ‘shuffle backwards’.

We've been crushing coke cans for the @imperialcollege open day and the last two we did buckled almost identically in terms of deflection pattern and mechanical response. Not bad, eh @GrohRainer? 😉

Word of the day is 'misken' (15th century): to refuse to recognise something by pretending it's not happening.
