Autorenporträt

Klaus Friedrich is an Emeritus Professor at the Institute for Composite Materials (IVW GmbH), Technical University of Kaiserslautern, Germany. He is an editorial board member of several key journals in the area, including Composites Science and Technology, Tribology International, and J. Material Science. He also contributes to international committees and conferences related to composite materials and has received numerous awards and honors throughout his prolific research career.Prof. Breuer is Scientific Managing Director at the Leibniz Institute for Composite Materials (IVW), Germany. After studying mechanical engineering and completing his doctorate on thermoplastic processing technology of composite materials in 1997 at Kaiserslautern, he has worked for 13 years in various positions at Airbus in structural technology on the development of advanced wings, high-lift structures and fuselage structures made of composite materials. In 2010 he joined the IVW where he has been leading the Institute of Composite Materials. Prof. Breuer is head of the specialist division "Materials and Manufacturing Technology" in the German Aerospace Society, and his research interests include composite aircraft structures, function-integrated high-performance composites, and forming of organo sheets.
