The research using the framework of the general theory of thin-walled beams will continue. The influence of shear on the bending and torsion of thin-walled composite beams with cross-sections will be investigated, as well as the distortion of isotropic beams with open thin-walled cross-sections composed of three plates subjected to torsion. The influence of eccentric axial loading on thin-walled composite beams/columns with open cross-sections will also be examined. The analysis of thin-walled curved beams with cross-sections having two axes of symmetry will be continued. The influence of shear on bending of curved thin-walled beams will also be considered. The experimental phase on structural models will be initiated in order to confirm analytically obtained expressions for the distribution of stresses in thin-walled beams. Within the micromechanical analysis of composite materials, existing analytical and semi-empirical models will be systematized. A selection procedure for the most suitable model for particular types of matrices and fibres will be proposed, utilizing Bayesian conditional probability theory as well as other model selection techniques.

As part of the research related to the development of elasto-plastic constitutive models of orthotropic materials, the continuation of research related to the characterization of elastic and plastic anisotropy, along with the development and application of constitutive models, for metallic samples produced by additive manufacturing processes is planned. Research related to the application of optimization methods, as well as constraint for the shear stress state, in the process of determining the anisotropy parameters of models for sheet metals is also planned.
