Dr.-Ing. Dominik Dörr
Dominik studied mechanical engineering at KIT and started as scientific researcher and doctoral student at KIT-FAST in 2014. He received his doctoral degree with distinction in October 2019 and has specialized in the development of simulation methods for thermoforming of thermoplastic UD-tapes. Between March 2016 and January 2019, he has been leading the working group for continuous fibers. Besides this, he was a Postdoctoral Associate at Western University between January 2019 and April 2022.
Dr.-Ing. Martin Hohberg
Martin studied mechanical engineering at KIT and started as scientific researcher and doctoral student at KIT-FAST in May 2013. He received his doctoral degree in December 2018. His doctoral studies focused on the process characterization and simulation of the Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) process with local reinforcements.
Dr.-Ing. Alexander Bernath
Alexander studied mechanical engineering at KIT and started as a scientific researcher and doctoral student at KIT-FAST in May 2013. He received his doctoral degree in December 2019. In his doctoral studies, he focused on the simulation of thermoset curing and process-induced distortion of composite structures.
M.Sc. Stefan Haas
Stefan studied mechanical engineering at KIT, focusing on lightweight design and applied mechanics. He graduated with distinction in November 2022. In his master’s thesis, he focused on the flow behavior of thermoplastic UD tapes and the influence of process-induced effects on permeability.
Along the way, he attended the Composites United Trainee Program and was an auxiliary scientist for composites at the Fraunhofer ICT.
