Biography

Daniel Leidermark is a Professor at Linköping University, engaged in research focusing on the mechanical behavior of single-crystal nickel-base superalloys. His work primarily investigates high-temperature mechanics and the complex evaluation/design processes involved in these materials. With a significant emphasis on constitutive modeling and the challenges posed by thermomechanical fatigue, Leidermark also explores the impacts of rapid changes in energy production due to green energy sources, including hydro, wind, and solar power. The evolving landscape of global electricity generation necessitates enhanced reliability in gas turbines, which play a vital role in balancing output from renewable sources. Leidermark’s expertise extends to understanding the stress relaxation and creep behavior of materials when subjected to extreme conditions. He teaches courses in Solid Mechanics at the university, sharing his knowledge on advanced computational mechanics and the fundamental aspects of material behavior under various loading scenarios.
