Pavel Andreevich Zhilin is my Teacher who has inspired me to work in science and has appreciably affected my worldview, but that is not all. I am very much obliged to Prof. Zhilin. Only I can estimate the importance of his influence on me. I am grateful for the chance to know such a wonderful person and an outstanding scientist. He has become the embodiment of spirituality for me.

Edition of the works of P. A. Zhilin is ongoing since 2006 in collaboration with H. Altenbach, E.N. Vilchevskaya, S.N. Gavrilov, E.F. Grekova, V.I. Erofeev, D.A. Indeitsev, A.M. Krivtsov.

Here you can see the list of works of P. A. Zhilin published after 2005 and download them in PDF format.


Research Interests

My main research interests are development, popularization and spreading to new fields of knowledge of two following scientific directions:

The research interests listed below are closely related to the main research directions. They belong either to the fields of science, in which one can use the ideas and models relating to the Cosserat continua and non-classical particles, or to the fields of science, where the mathematical methods are applicable for describing the dynamics of non-classical particles and Cosserat continua are developed.

Areas of Research

The areas of research which are actively developed:

The research areas which were developed earlier, but have been put on hold for a number of reasons, are listed bellow. Interest in these research areas persists and the possibility of their further development is not excluded.
