Originally from Romania, I graduated from the “Politehnica” University of Timisoara, Romania in 2005. Immediately after I started PhD studies at the same university and soon I moved to LTU where I am employed as PhD student since June 2006.

Between 2006 and 2008 I was “young researcher” member of the European Network for Composite Reinforcement (en.core) training network. Research activities carried out in the en.core network were related to the bond issues between fibre reinforced polymers (FRP) and the concrete in the context of shear failure of reinforced concrete (RC) elements. Along with my supervisor Professor Björn Täljsten, I am contributing to the forthcoming fib TG 9.3 document “FRP reinforcement for Concrete Structures”, and the Swedish design guideline “FRP Strengthening of Existing Concrete Structures”.

I also participated actively in the European Union financed project, Sustainable Bridges, where the Örnsköldsvik Bridge was tested up to failure. My task was to monitor the strains in the concrete beams using innovative photometric strain measurements. Now I'm investigating the failure mode of the bridge using non linear finite element analysis.

Research interests: strengthening and rehabilitation of existing structures using FRP systems, reinforced concrete design, finite element modelling of structures, monitoring of structures.
