Karl Kriemler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karl Johannes Kriemler , also Carl, (born July 27, 1865 in Victoria (British Columbia) , † June 1, 1936 in Stuttgart ) was a German civil engineer and engineer for technical mechanics .

Professional background

Kriemler completed his habilitation in 1902 under Friedrich Engesser at the Polytechnic in Karlsruhe (labile and stable equilibrium figures of completely elastic bars stressed in bending with special consideration of the buckling processes) . He became an associate professor in Karlsruhe, where the term technical mechanics appears for the first time in connection with a habilitation or professorship in Karlsruhe. In 1907 he became a professor at the Technical University of Stuttgart, where he taught until 1919 (his successor was Richard Grammel ).

He was best known for his contributions to hydraulics. He also dealt with equilibrium figures and stability of elastic rods (habilitation), thermodynamic considerations in strength theory and the force effect of cars on roadways.
