Dimitra's research is focused on the field of materials and their properties and specifically on the mechanical performance of composite and structural materials, such as steel fibre reinforced concrete. She has also studied the non-destructive behaviour of structural materials using advanced Non-Destructive methods, such as Acoustic Emission, Infrared Thermography, Electrical properties etc. Her recent project is on self-sensing cementitious materials and their application on the infrastructure.
Dimitra's main areas of research interests are:
• Properties of advanced materials
• Mechanical behaviour of composite and structural materials
• Self-sensing materials
• Non-destructive monitoring of advanced structural and composite materials
