Education:

• Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Munich, 2019

Research Interests: Gebauer's research centers on cardiac mechanics modeling, including growth and remodeling of cardiac tissue, cardiac active tissue mechanics, and medical image processing. He develops advanced computational methods for parallel and high performance computing, particularly through the 4C multi-physics simulation framework. His work integrates constrained mixture models to simulate organ-scale biological processes, bridging computational mechanics with clinical cardiology applications and focusing on mechanobiological stability in cardiac systems.

Publication Trends: Gebauer's publications (2018-2025) demonstrate consistent innovation in computational cardiology, primarily using constrained mixture models to address cardiac growth and remodeling. His recent work introduces adaptive integration techniques for history variables and homogenized modeling approaches, while expanding into software benchmarking for cardiac elastodynamics and gastric motility simulations. These contributions highlight his expertise in developing robust numerical methods for multi-physics biomedical problems, with increasing focus on patient-specific applications and high-performance computing solutions.

Teaching and Advising: Gebauer teaches core computational mechanics courses including Finite Elemente and Numerische Festkörpermechanik across multiple semesters. He has supervised diverse student projects ranging from term papers to Master's theses, with notable collaborations including Maximilian Grill's shoulder biomechanics research (2020) and Janina Datz's artery geometry framework development (2021). His advising consistently focuses on cardiac mechanics, computational modeling, and medical device simulation.

Research Environment: As part of Professor Wolfgang A. Wall's Institute for Computational Mechanics (LNM) at TUM, Gebauer contributes to a leading research group in computational solid/fluid mechanics. The LNM develops the 4C simulation framework for complex engineering and biomedical challenges, with current emphasis on cardiac growth modeling, multi-physics integration, and high-performance computing applications in personalized medicine.
