She has particularly rich teaching and popularizing achievements in the field of international cooperation. The main directions of her scientific interests are methods of designing and assessing the durability of metal structures, non-linear sensitivity analysis, optimal design of thin-walled cold-formed steel structures taking into account imperfections and clearances, as well as restraining methods of CFS “sigma” types beams using CFRP tapes and wraps. Moreover her scientific interests incudes issues connected with sustainable buildings and design of structures in fire conditions. She is the author and co-author of nearly a hundred scientific articles, the author of one scientific monograph and co-author of engineering manuals.
