Mischa Blaszczyk studied mechanical engineering at Ruhr-University Bochum, where he received his M.Sc. in 2019 with a thesis on the topic of thermodynamic topology optimization with gradient-enhanced regularization for unstructured meshes. After graduation, he continued to stay at Ruhr-University Bochum and started to work as a PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Klaus Hackl at the Institute of Mechanics of Materials.
In 2024, he defended his doctoral thesis. His research concentrated on modeling and simulations of electro-mechanic coupled materials and applications in biomechanics, with the focus on coupled wave propagation in bone for the early detection of osteoporosis. He developed a multiscale and multiphase material model to describe bone in a realistic and physiological way. Additionally, he worked on the topic of electromechanical metamaterials.
In March 2025, he started a position as Akademischer Rat in the group of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ralf Jänicke at the Institute of Mechanics at TU Braunschweig. His current research interests are multiphysics and multiscale simulations in the context of different applications in the area of batteries and energy storage devices.
