Helmut Bode

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Helmut Bode (born September 2, 1940 in Dresden ; † May 31, 2003 in Kaiserslautern ) was a German civil engineer and university professor.

Live and act

As the son of the grammar school teacher Hans Bode and Annegold Bode (née Scholl), Helmut Bode attended the Hermann-Billung-Gymnasium in Celle from 1951 to 1960 and passed the high school diploma with distinction in the modern-language-scientific branch. He then did military service until 1962 - most recently as a lieutenant in the pioneer troop. This was followed by an internship in bridge and civil engineering in Celle and, from 1962 to 1968, the study of civil engineering (specialization in structural engineering ) at the TH Hannover . Bode's diploma thesis, design of a railway bridge , rated Helmut Pfannmüller (1902–1977), professor of steel construction , with "very good". In 1968 Helmut Bode married Ilse Büchsenschuß from Hanover and joined Hellmut Homberg's (1909–1990) engineering office in Hagen / Westphalia that same year , where he a. a. static calculations for the north bridge Mülheim and the bridges in the course of the Sauerland line . Bode also analyzed high -speed compressor impellers using the theory of cone shells and the method of transfer matrices .

In 1970 Bode switched to the chair for steel construction at the Institute for Structural Engineering at the Ruhr University Bochum (RUB), where he initially worked for Otto Jungbluth until 1972 and then as an academic councilor and senior councilor under Karlheinz Roik . In 1974 Bode was awarded a "very good" doctorate by the RUB for his dissertation Contribution to the calculation and construction of sandwich panels . doctorate, a topic that still came from Jungbluth.

At the end of 1980, Bode accepted the call from the University of Kaiserslautern to the professorship for steel construction and structural engineering . With the appointment of Udo Wittek to the newly founded statics chair, Bode has represented the fields of steel construction with composite construction and metal construction since 1983 . In the same year, Bode founded an engineering office in Kaiserslautern, which has been part of the engineering office Bode, Ramm und Partner since 1987. There he was responsible for the structural planning for boiler frames and casting halls, the aircraft hangar Munich II and for the ceilings of the Commerzbank high-rise in Frankfurt am Main .

Bode also worked as a test engineer for structural engineering (specializing in steel construction and solid construction ) since 1981 . So he checked u. a. the north and south stands of the Fritz Walter Stadium , bridges over the Saar in Besseringen and Saarhölzbach , composite steel bridges in Saarland, industrial buildings, masts, wind turbines, falsework and bridges over the B 10 ; He also submitted reports and proposals for restructuring, such as B. for the Lautertal bridge in the course of the A 6 Mannheim - Saarbrücken .

With Wieland Ramm, Helmut Bode made great contributions to the development of civil engineering at the University of Kaiserslautern and contributed to the international reputation of the university with his research on composite steel construction. His monograph on composite construction, published in 1983, became the standard work of this rapidly developing sub-discipline of steel construction. Bode supervised numerous dissertations a. a. by Wolfgang Fichtner, Hans-Joachim Uth, Johannes Schanzenbach, Norbert Sauerborn, Ingeborg Sauerborn, Jürgen Becker, Jochen Stengel, Frank Minas, Jürgen Kretz, Martin Mensinger , Christoph Odenbreit and Andreas Leffer.

To mark Bode's 60th birthday, a commemorative publication was published in 2000 with contributions by Helmut Eggert , Rolf Eligehausen , Mario Fontana , Wolfgang Graße , Gerhard Hanswille , Jean-Pierre Jaspart, Rolf Kindmann , Ulrike Kuhlmann , Akimitsu Kurita , Karl-Eugen Kurrer , Ingbert Mangerig , Martin Mensinger, David A. Nethercot , Udo Peil , Peter Schaumann , Herbert Schmidt , Gerhard Sedlacek and Klaus W. Usemann

Due to illness, Bode retired in September 2000. His successor was Markus Feldmann.
