In the context of the DFG project “Computational modeling and simulation of combined seismo- and electrocardiograms as basis for novel diagnostic tools” Dennis Ogiermann and Daniel Balzani visited the cooperation partners of the project Prof. Luigi Perotti and Prof. Hanson Mansy from the University of Central Florida (UCF) in Orlando from June 6 to June 8, 2025. Dennis Ogiermann stayed for another week to work on joint implementations.
From June 1 to June 5, 2025, Dennis Ogiermann and Daniel Balzani participated in the FIMH conference (Functional Imaging and Modeling of the Heart) in Dallas and presented the latest results on the validation of simulations of the electromechanics of the heart.
The kickoff meeting for the collaborative research centre 1683 "Interaction Methods for the Modular Reuse of Existing Load-Bearing Structures" took place on 22nd and 23rd of may 2025 at the convention centre of the RUB. The chair of continuum mechanics participates in the CRC by means of the subprojects B01 und B03.
The sub-project proposals for the inaugural funding period of the DFG Priority Program 2489 were presented to the panel of reviewers in Bochum. As a member of the program committee, Daniel Balzani hosted the event, collaborating with the DFG. The event commenced with a presentation by program spokesperson Markus Kästner (TU Dresden), who elucidated the content and conceptual framework of the SPP.
The IUTAM Symposium on Computational Fracture Mechanics in Multi-Field Problems, organized by Kerstin Weinberg (Siegen) and Anna Pandolfi (Milan), was dedicated to the 70th birthday of Michael Ortiz (California Institute of Technology).
We are delighted to share that Klemens Uhlmann has successfully defended his PhD thesis, titled “Modeling, Simulation and Analysis of Adaptive and Active Processes in Muscular Arteries,” with distinction.
On the occasion of Professor Jörg Schröder’s 60th birthday, Dominik Brands and Alexander Schwarz, with the support of Daniel Balzani, Marc-Andre Keip, Tim Ricken, and Lisa Scheunemann, organized a scientific symposium.
The LKM members involved in the Ferrite.jl development, namely Maximilian Köhler, Abdulaziz Mohamed and Dennis Ogiermann, have given talks on this years FerriteCon at Chalmers University of Technology in Götheborg. Their presentations cover latest development updates on adaptive mesh refinement, local time stepping and efficient solver technology.
This year, the LKM was again represented at the CIM2 Symposium with a presentation by Dennis Ogiermann. He shared findings from simulation models on the effects of residual stresses in the left ventricle. The Thunderbolt.jl software framework developed at the chair was used for the studies.
Dennis Ogiermann has been selected to give a presentation about a novel Piezo1 ion channel model at the Cardiac Physiome Workshop 2024 in Freiburg.
