n her dissertation ("Experimental Nonlinear Modal Analysis - Method development with particular focus on nonlinear damping") written at the University of Stuttgart, Maren Scheel developed an experimental method for determining vibration characteristics. This makes it possible to better predict the behavior of jointed structures. This method is used both in the energy industry (e.g. for wind turbine rotor blades) and for engine blades in aircraft engines.
Mareen Scheel, who completed her doctorate at the University of Stuttgart's Institute of Aircraft Propulsion Systems, was awarded the Amelia Earhart Fellowship Award endowed with 10,000 US dollars as a doctoral researcher.
Every year, numerous researchers at the University of Stuttgart are honored for groundbreaking and creative achievements. A selection of our award winners.
