Marc Geers

Marc Geers is a Full Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), leading the Mechanics of Materials research group. His work bridges solid mechanics, multi-scale modeling, and computational homogenization, focusing on advanced materials like metamaterials, energy materials, and additive manufacturing systems.

• Research Themes: Multi-scale mechanics, metamaterials, computational homogenization, micromechanics, and deformation analysis of metals and composites.
• Leadership: Chairs TU/e’s multi-scale lab, serves as Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Mechanics A/Solids, and leads the European Mechanics Society EUROMECH since 2019.

Recent publications emphasize additive manufacturing, metamaterial design, and multi-physics homogenization, leveraging machine learning and finite element methods. His team explores applications in fusion-reactor shielding, MEMS, and hygroscopic paper networks.

Grants & Awards: Structurally funded by ERC (Advanced Grant), NWO (STW, FOM), EU, and M2i. Elected to KNAW (2022) and Koninklijke Hollandsche Maatschappij der Wetenschappen (2012).
