PhD Piotr Szablewski is a lecturer in the department of Technical Mechanics and Informatics, Technical University of Lodz, Poland. He has over 18 years of experience in teaching mechanics and numerical methods in engineering. He is particularly interested in theoretical methods and numerical simulation.

His areas of interest also involve theoretical mechanics and its applications in woven and non-woven textiles (particularly - textile composites). He tries to develop textile mechanics in the department of Technical Mechanics and Informatics - Technical University of Lodz. During the last three years he has worked on applications of numerical method for building geometrical models for textile composites and predicting mechanical parameters. Currently he is working on simulation and optimization geometrical parameters of composites, to obtain higher quality for structural strength of textile composites.

He also has an experience of working with international student groups in the field of mechanics.

	Modelling of textile composites - part one : geometrical parameters
	This paper describes a simple sinusoidal geometrical model of textile composite. On the basis of this model it will be presented how to obtain certain geometrical parameters which fully characterize the geometry of composite structure

	Modeling of the stability of a flat textile structures loaded by compression forces
	The aim of this paper is to examine the state of equilibrium of a flat textile structure loaded by compression forces and deadweight. Only those forms of deformed structure were considered where its two ends were supported by pivot bearings, and lie on the immovable supporting plane. Such structure may be a flat textile structure

	Analysis Of The Stability Of A Flat Textile Structure
	This paper deals with a specific method of examine the state of equilibrium of a flat textile structure. This kind of structure is modelled as an inextensible elastica loaded with its dead weight and axial force. The elastica represents, as an example, a longitudinal section of a fabric.
