Martin Eder

Martin Eder is an Associate Professor at the Department of Wind and Energy Systems, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), located in Roskilde, Denmark. He leads and contributes to research on wind-turbine rotor-blade engineering, composite materials, fatigue, and additive manufacturing, and is currently supervising several PhD students.

Research Interests
Eder's work centers on the engineering science of wind-turbine blades, with emphasis on:

• composite materials durability and testing,
• high-cycle fatigue and fracture mechanics of adhesively bonded joints,
• cross-sectional analysis of tapered composite beams,
• thermoplastic composite additive manufacturing,
• corrosion-fatigue of offshore steel structures.

These themes are reflected in DTU’s fingerprint analysis, showing his leadership in wind-turbine engineering, rotor-blade engineering, and related fatigue topics.

Recent Publications & Trends
His latest papers (2024-2025) reveal a dual focus: advancing digital-industrial concepts such as human-cyber-physical systems for Industry 5.0 wind turbines, and refining mechanics-based models for fatigue, thermoplastic 3D printing, and adhesive joints. Together, these works push towards lighter, more durable, and smarter turbine blades.

Supervision & Projects
Eder currently supervises three PhD projects:

• “In-situ corrosion fatigue tests for offshore steel structures” (V. Golshani)
• “Multi-physics modeling of 3D printing processes for sustainable composite structures” (H. P. Nowruzani)
• Industrial PhD “Advanced accurate and computationally efficient numerical methods for wind-turbine rotor-blade design” (P. Bertolini)

He has also participated in major research initiatives such as WindWeld and national corrosion-fatigue consortia, demonstrating strong collaboration with both academia and industry.

Laboratories & Teams
He is affiliated with DTU Wind Energy’s Composites Manufacturing and Testing and Wind Energy Materials and Components divisions, where experimental facilities for fatigue, composite manufacturing, and structural testing support his research group’s work.
