About Me

I was born in Most and lived there for six years. Afterwards, we moved into a small city near Trutnov where I attended a local grammar school. After graduation I continued my study at FCE, CTU in Prague.

I started my research and did my bachelor thesis under the supervision of Jan Zeman and Václav Nežerka. The bachelor work was focused on numerical investigation of the influence of different shapes of aggregates on the fracture properties of lime based mortars. I found the cooperation very fruitful and their knowledge and skills inspired me. The following year I continued in research with the same team. In my master thesis I dealt with the optimization of composition of masonry mortars.

The research during my masters put me into the charge of several destructive tests, carried out in the Experimental Centre and I also became a member of a research team under the leadership of prof. Petr Kabele. This was the initial impulse to start Ph.D. studies at the Department of Mechanics. My Ph.D. work is focused on development of special modules for the ATENA software under the supervision of Vít Šmilauer.
