Martin Lenz

Dr. Martin Lenz is a researcher at the Institut für Numerische Simulation at the University of Bonn, specializing in numerical methods for materials science and mechanics. His work bridges computational mathematics with applications in magnetic-shape-memory materials, microstructure optimization, and multiscale modeling.

• Teaching: Lecturer for Ingenieurmathematik III (module M43), Ingenieurmathematik II (module B42), and Ingenieurmathematik (Master module M22).
• Current Research: Leads Numerical optimization of shape microstructures (Project C06, DFG SFB 1060) focusing on two-scale optimization of elastic materials.
• Past Research: Developed continuum models for magnetic-shape-memory materials (Project A6, DFG priority program 1239) and studied multiscale phase separation with elastic misfit.

His recent publications (2023-2012) emphasize shape-memory alloys, microstructure dynamics, and adaptive numerical schemes. Key methodologies include finite volume methods, homogenization, and phase field modeling.

Education: PhD (2007) and Diploma in Mathematics (2002) from the University of Bonn.
