Beruflicher Werdegang
Arbeitsgebiete
Recipient of a European Marie Skłodowska-Curie individual fellowship - project DEtune (Cordis: 893674; Twitter account: @MSCA_DEtune)
The project explores acoustic and high-frequency applications of dielectric elastomers, with the goal of developing adaptable loudspeakers, which can be integrated onto complex surfaces and textiles.
Activities:
- multi-physics modelling
- electro-mechanical, vibration, and acoustic testing
- acoustic systems design
