Malte Winckler

Dr. Malte Winckler is a research-active academic in the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany. His work centers on the numerical analysis of partial differential equations with applications in superconductivity and electromagnetic field modeling.

His research focuses on numerical analysis of PDEs, particularly Maxwell's equations, variational inequalities, and shape optimization. He applies advanced mathematical techniques to model physical phenomena in type-II superconductors, including Bean's critical-state model and H(curl)-elliptic systems. His methodological expertise lies in finite element methods, adaptive approximation schemes, and optimal control.

The recent publications show a consistent focus on developing and analyzing numerical schemes for non-smooth and nonlinear PDEs arising in superconductivity. Key themes include adaptive edge elements, fully discrete approximations, and shape optimization under physical constraints. These works appear in top-tier applied mathematics journals such as SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis and Computational Optimization and Applications.

Dr. Winckler is involved in the DFG SPP 1962 Priority Programme as a contributor to project 22 on non-smooth distributed parameter systems. He teaches courses such as Introduction to Numerical Methods and collaborates closely with Prof. Dr. Irwin Yousept. He has no listed scientific awards in the provided text.

He maintains active research profiles on Google Scholar, ResearchGate, ORCID, and GitLab, indicating engagement with the broader scientific community. He advises no students listed in the material and is not indicated as part-time, retired, or former staff.
