Nils has been a key member of the Pre-Sales Department at INTES since 2011. He holds a Master’s in Mechanical Engineering and a PhD in Civil Engineering, supplemented by post-doctoral research in parameter-dependent eigenvalue problems at the University of Stuttgart. At INTES, Nils leads training courses on VisPER and optimisation, and is responsible for benchmarking and conference papers, drawing on his expertise in the PERMAS FEA package and the VisPER pre- and post-processor. While his work spans all aspects of CAE with a particular focus on structural dynamics, rotor dynamics, and optimization, he is currently dedicated to the PERMAS for Education (PERMAS4EDU) initiative.
