Other research interests include investigation of the structural response of masonry arches and buildings. Georgios has developed non-linear finite element analysis codes. He has also extensive experience with commercial finite element analysis software (Abaqus, Ansys, Comsol).
Currently, he supervises PhD and MSc students and he participates in international collaborations.
