Lengyel Gábor

Lengyel Gábor is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Structural Mechanics within the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Budapest University of Technology and Economics. His research focuses on the mechanical behavior of masonry structures, particularly under seismic loads, Gothic arches, and cracked structural elements.

• Education: MSc in Civil Engineering (2013), BSc in Civil Engineering (2011) from Budapest University of Technology and Economics

His work spans structural dynamics, discrete element modeling, and numerical analysis of historical and modern masonry systems. Recent publications emphasize seismic response, crack propagation, and load-bearing capacity of Gothic vaults.

Key contributions include studies on:

• Mechanical role of ribs in masonry vaults
• Free vibration of cracked arches
• Optimization of Gothic arch thickness

Scientific award:

• #építő250 scholarship

Teaching experience includes conducting Hungarian-language practical courses in 'Szilárdságtan' (Strength of Materials) and 'Dinamika' (Dynamics).
