The list of my refereed publications is shown here. It is split into two very different parts: from the beginning of the year 1991, I started doing research in gravitational physics, mainly with an alternative theory which I proposed. This is quite remote from my original domain -- micro-macro transitions in the mechanics of materials.

Member of the International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation.
