Josef Eberhardsteiner
Josef Eberhardsteiner (born August 16, 1957 in Linz ) is an Austrian civil engineer and materials scientist . Eberhardsteiner received his doctorate in 1989 and in 2001 received the license to teach strength theory. Since 2003 he has been a professor for material and structure simulation in civil engineering at the Institute for Mechanics of Materials and Structures (IMWS) at the Vienna University of Technology (TU Vienna) . In 2008 Eberhardsteiner became dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering. He has been a full member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences since 2013 and Josef Eberhardsteiner has been Vice-Rector for Infrastructure since October 1, 2015 and Vice-Rector for Digitization and Infrastructure at Vienna University of Technology since January 1, 2019.
research
Josef Eberhardsteiner is a scientist in the field of mechanical characterization and mathematical modeling of building materials and biological materials. He works analytically / numerically as well as experimentally. His innovative scientific achievements in the field of physical wood research, which he has provided since 1992, are recognized worldwide. That concerns u. a. the development of a unique biaxial test facility for carrying out macroscopic experiments on wood that is mechanically stressed at an angle to the grain. He is responsible for setting up two relevant laboratories, including an interdisciplinary laboratory for the interdisciplinary characterization of material properties on the smallest length scales. Building on experimentally gained knowledge, Eberhardsteiner uses so-called multi-scale concepts of continuum micromechanics with great success for engineering prognosis of the mechanical behavior of hierarchically structured materials such as B. concrete, asphalt and last but not least wood.
The ambitious goal of Eberhardsteiner's research work, which is strongly supported by the wood industry, is the development of high-performance material models and reliable numerical calculation methods for structural timber engineering. These represent an indispensable prerequisite for the construction of environmentally friendly, energy-saving, architecturally appealing as well as statically and structurally demanding wooden structures.
Josef Eberhardsteiner is well established in the relevant international scientific community of experimental and numerical mechanics. He belongs to a number of important scientific associations and is a member of the editorial staff of prestigious journals. He is the organizer of important international scientific congresses such as B. the World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM 5) in Vienna in 2002, the Congress of the European Community of Computational Methods and Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS) held in Vienna in 2012, or the World Conference on Timber Engineering, also organized in Vienna in 2016 ( WCTE).
Eberhardsteiner is author or co-author of 377 scientific publications, including 133 publications in peer-reviewed journals . The thematic focus of his publications are experimental and numerical mechanics (in particular wood mechanics).
