Carl Dahlberg

Carl Dahlberg is a Researcher at Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (KTH) within the Department of Materials and Structural Mechanics. His roles include teaching and course responsibility for advanced engineering courses such as FEM for Engineering Applications and Material Mechanics. His research focuses on plasticity modeling, dislocation dynamics, fracture mechanics, and advanced materials characterization.

Key research areas include strain gradient plasticity, hydrogen embrittlement, and crystal plasticity. He has extensively studied dislocation density effects in metals, fracture mechanisms in steels, and mechanical behavior under extreme conditions. His work integrates experimental techniques like neutron imaging with computational models for material analysis.

Publications span over 15 years, emphasizing topics such as:

• Length-scale dependent plasticity phenomena
• Fracture mechanics in polycrystals
• Multi-mechanism failure modeling
• Corrosion fatigue in stainless steels

His educational background includes a PhD in Solid Mechanics from KTH (2011) and a Licentiate thesis on strain gradient plasticity (2009). He has contributed to courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels, balancing academic research with pedagogical responsibilities.
