In this post I’ll introduce one open research question in computational mechanics as well as one research direction that tries to resolve the problem. All figures are produced by a small Julia code that resides inside a Pluto.jl notebook. The link to the notebook file can be found here or at the very bottom of this post.
My PhD Topic is a research project of the Chair of Mechanics – Continuum Mechanics, Ruhr-University Bochum in collaboration with Institute of Mathematics, University of Augsburg under the hood of the SPP 2256.

I want to share what my colleague Dennis Ogiermann and me learnt while setting up a server that I’m going to use for a teaching adventure with Julia. I’ll teach exercises in the course “Basics of FEM” for mechanical engineers.
The problems The mechanical engineering students have no or little experience with programming (and very likely no experience with a terminal) There is no time to teach them in depth programming, terminal handling, etc.
