Steen Krenk

Steen Krenk received his M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the Technical University of Denmark and later the degree of Dr.Tech.from the same institution after studies at Lehigh University. He is professor of Structural Mechanics at the Technical University of Denmark. He has held similar positions at Aalborg University in Denmark and Lund University in Sweden, and visiting appointments at Lehigh University, University of Virginia, University of Waterloo and University of Notre Dame. His research areas include mechanics of structures and materials, computational mechanics and stochastic models for structural loads and safety. In recent years the main area of research has been structural dynamics with special emphasis on time integration techniques, and damping and resonant control of structural vibrations. Several of his research results have found direct application in acoustics, seismology, vibration damping of cables and pedestrian bridges, and in analysis techniques for offshore structures and wind turbines.  

Jan Høgsberg received his M.Sc. in 2002 and Ph.D. in 2005 from the Technical University of Denmark, where he is currently holding a position as associate professor. His main research areas are mechanics and dynamics of structures, with particular emphasis on the design, calibration and implementation of active and semi-active damping and control concepts for flexible structures.
