In addition to giving theoretical lectures, I do in-depth studies in the following scientific fields:

Earthquake Resistant Behaviour of Structures with emphasis in Experimental Methods and design related issues.
Experimental investigation of the dynamic behavior of structures, construction parts, materials and facilities under horizontal and seismic forces.
Instrumentations, experimental utilities and methods for recording and measuring of experimental tests and calibrations using real time analyzer of shaking table.
Design and construction of structural materials and reinforced concrete parts, which used for the construction of real and small scale models.

Research Intersets:
? Structural dynamics
? Earthquake Engineering
? Construction Materials
? Repair and rehabilitation of structures

Other Contributions:
*Contribution to the establishment of a European test site near Thessaloniki for Engineering Seismology, Earthquake Engineering and Seismology. To produce at this test site for a long period of time a high- quality instrumental in-situ data, so that they can ground valid tests and checks of methods currently used in Engineering seismology and Earthquake Engineering and calibrate new methods to be developed.
