Sven Rogge is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture at Ghent University, where he leads computational research on nanostructured materials. His work bridges theoretical modeling and practical applications in materials science, with particular focus on strain engineering and mechanical properties of framework materials. Rogge earned his Master of Science in Engineering Physics in 2014, followed by a Ph.D. in 2018 under supervision of Prof. Veronique Van Speybroeck and Prof. Toon Verstraelen. His doctoral research developed simulation algorithms for interrogating mechanical behavior of metal-organic frameworks under temperature and pressure. He subsequently held two postdoctoral fellowships from the Research Foundation Flanders before becoming an associate professor in 2023. Rogge's research centers on computational materials science with emphasis on strain engineering of nanostructured materials. His work spans molecular dynamics simulations, multiscale modeling, and machine learning approaches to understand and design materials with tailored mechanical properties. Key research themes include solid-state phase transformations, flexibility mechanisms in porous frameworks, and computational design of materials for energy applications. His group has pioneered techniques such as the micromechanical model (MicMec) for investigating cooperative phenomena in reticular materials. His publication record shows a strong trend toward integrating computational methods with experimental validation across diverse materials systems. Recent work demonstrates growing emphasis on machine learning applications in materials discovery, particularly for metal-organic and covalent organic frameworks. His research bridges fundamental understanding of material behavior with practical applications in energy storage, gas separation, and perovskite stability. ERC Starting Grant (2023) for establishing strain engineering as an in silico technique Member of the Young Academy of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts (2023) Member of the Federal Board of Research Policy (FRWB) (2023) Two postdoctoral fellowships from the Research Foundation Flanders Ph.D. fellowship from the Research Foundation Flanders Rogge co-teaches Bachelor and Master courses in Engineering Physics, including Quantum Mechanics I and Modelling and Engineering of Nanoscale Materials. His research group maintains active collaborations across European institutions and contributes to several large-scale projects focused on computational materials design. The group has developed several computational tools and databases, including MicMec for mechanical modeling and ReDD-COFFEE for covalent organic framework screening, which have gained international recognition in the computational materials community.
