Ameya Rege

Dr. Ameya Rege obtained his doctorate from the Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule (RWTH) Aachen University, Germany in 2018.

His dissertation was titled “Mechanical Characterisation and Multiscale Modelling of Aerogels”. This work was amongst the first within the aerogel community to present physically motivated models for predicting the properties of aerogels. Since 2019, he is working at the Department of Aerogels and Aerogel Composites at the Institute of Materials Research of the German Aerospace Center in Cologne, Germany. His current fields of research interests comprise using molecular to continuum approaches to model soft materials like aerogels, gels, and fibre-reinforced composites.
