I am a postdoctoral researcher in mathematical analysis at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg where I am member of the research group of Manuel Friedrich at the Chair of Applied Mathematics. My current position is sponsored by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.
My research concerns the analysis of problems from continuum mechanics and materials science by means of the calculus of variations and the theory of partial differential equations. Specific research topics include:
• multiphysics problems with Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation
• cavitation and fracture in nonlinear elasticity
• rate-independet evolutions
• reduced theories for thin structures
The recording of a recent talk of mine is available here .
