Christian Uschmann

Christian Uschmann is a Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena, specializing in construction and production equipment design. He holds a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering and is currently pursuing a PhD at Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg and EAH Jena. His research focuses on microstructured cutting tools, high-performance machining, and simulation-driven tool design.

Education:

• PhD Candidate: Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg & Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (2017–present)
• Master of Mechanical Engineering: Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (2014–2017)
• Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering: Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (2010–2014)

Research Interests: His work emphasizes the development and testing of microstructured tools with integrated cooling/lubrication systems, finite element modeling for tool performance prediction, and optimization of machining processes for challenging materials like adhesive aluminum alloys. He collaborates with industry partners to validate tool designs in real-world applications.

Publications & Presentations: He has authored peer-reviewed articles and presented at conferences such as ProcessNet-Fachgruppe Hochdruckverfahrenstechnik and the Jenaer Lasertagung. His publications address topics like tool geometry simulation, high-pressure cooling systems, and FEM-based tool evaluation.

Administrative Roles: He serves as the Internship Officer at EAH Jena and manages the Internship Office III, coordinating student placements and academic collaborations.
