Martin Wagner (materials scientist)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Martin Franz-Xaver Wagner (* 1978 ) is a German scientist in the field of materials research . He is a professor at the Institute for Materials Science and Technology at the Technical University of Chemnitz and from 2007 was one of the young fellows at the North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences and the Arts .

Scientific career

After graduating from the Geschwister-Scholl-Gymnasium in Wetter , North Rhine-Westphalia , in 1998 , Martin Wagner studied mechanical engineering in Bochum and at the Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg . In 2003 he received the Adam Opel Prize for the best diploma. He then researched the properties of shape memory alloys in Bochum . During his doctorate at the Institute for Materials in 2005, Wagner began to be increasingly interested in research. The doctoral thesis was awarded the Eickhoff Prize in 2006. A Feodor Lynen grant from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation enabled him to spend a year as a post-doctoral student at Ohio State University . There he dealt with special deformation processes and atomistic simulation methods. A professorship in Bochum was followed in 2010 by a professorship at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University in Chemnitz. Wagner is currently working on microstructure analysis and the mechanical behavior of materials. He is also head of an Emmy Noether junior research group funded by the German Research Foundation, which is investigating the mechanism of twin formation .

Martin Wagner is married and has four children.
