Scholar-generated biography
Christos Skamniotis is an Assistant Professor at Imperial College London, specializing in the analysis of thermomechanical stresses and their impact on material failure in high-temperature applications. His research focuses on creep-fatigue failure mechanisms in gas turbine blades, particularly in double wall transpiration cooling systems. He employs finite element methods and dislocation plasticity models to study the behavior of materials under complex loading conditions. His work addresses the design of components subjected to severe thermal and centrifugal stresses, with applications in aerospace and nuclear engineering. Skamniotis also investigates food mechanics, including fracture behavior and flow-fracture phenomena in soft viscous foods.
