Mohammad Sarhil

Mohammad Sarhil is a researcher at the University of Duisburg-Essen and a PostDoc at TU Dortmund University, affiliated with the Institute of Mechanics and Jörg Schröder's Lab. He holds a Dr.-Ing. (PhD) in Mechanics with distinction from 2024.

• Diploma in Structural Engineering (2012) from Latakia University, Syria
• M.Sc. in Computational Mechanics (2015) from University of Duisburg-Essen

His research focuses on phase-field modeling, micromorphic continua, and metamaterials, particularly for fatigue analysis in fiber-reinforced concrete and higher-order homogenization theories. Key trends include finite element formulations, parameter identification, and multiscale residual stress analysis.

Scientific recognition includes:

• DAAD scholarship
• Best Graduate award (Latakia University)

His work bridges computational mechanics, generalized continuum theories, and fracture mechanics with applications in structural and materials engineering.
