Franz Eisner

Franz Eisner (born September 4, 1895 in Berlin ; † June 16, 1933 there ) was a German civil engineer.

Franz Eisner studied civil engineering at the TH Berlin from 1913 to 1919 and then became a government building manager. In 1923 he passed the second state examination and became a research assistant at the Prussian Research Institute for Hydraulic Engineering and Shipbuilding . He first worked in the field of statics of steel structures, he soon turned to hydraulics. He carried out pressure measurements on cylinders around which there was a flow and examined similarity laws in hydraulic experiments.

In 1928 he received his doctorate at the TH Berlin with a thesis on resistance measurements on cylinders of circular and bridge piers cross-sections around which flow was flowing. In the same year he completed his habilitation and also became a private lecturer for hydromechanics at the TH Berlin. His last investigations were raids in various model sizes.

After the so-called seizure of power in May 1933, 32 lecturers at the Technical University were given leave of absence for racist reasons. Students petitioned the lecturer Eisner. After this petition was unsuccessful too, Eisner passed away voluntarily.
