Lars Edvard Blystad Dæhli

Lars Edvard Blystad Dæhli serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Structural Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). His office is located at Materialteknisk, mar.80, Gløshaugen, Richard Birkelands vei 1a, with contact information including email lars.e.dahli@ntnu.no and phone numbers +4773594659 and +4747373883.

Dr. Dæhli's research centers on plastic flow and fracture in metal alloys, with particular emphasis on micromechanics-based modeling strategies to enhance understanding of material behavior up to failure. His scientific approach integrates experimental, theoretical, and numerical methods to characterize and model material behavior through both physical and virtual experiments. His core competencies include ductile fracture (Duktilt brudd), finite element method (Elementmetode), solid mechanics (Faststoffmekanikk), and material modeling (Materialmodellering).

Analysis of his publication record reveals consistent research focus on ductile failure mechanisms in metallic materials, particularly aluminum alloys. His work demonstrates sophisticated modeling of porous materials, void growth phenomena, and the influence of microstructural features on macroscopic failure. The research spans computational mechanics, experimental validation, and theoretical development of constitutive models that capture complex material behavior under various loading conditions.

Dr. Dæhli actively disseminates his research through presentations at international conferences including EMMC, ECF, and LS-DYNA conferences. His teaching responsibilities include courses TKT4134 - Mechanics 4 and TKT4123 - Mechanics 2. His collaborative research network includes prominent colleagues such as David Morin, Odd Sture Hopperstad, Tore Børvik, and Jonas Faleskog, indicating strong research group integration within NTNU's structural engineering community.
