About the editors

Wolfgang H. Müller graduated with a Diploma in Physics in 1982 and with a Ph.D. in Physical Engineering Science in 1986, both from the Technische Universität in Berlin. In 1997, he finished his habilitation work at the Universität Paderborn and was awarded the Venia Legendi in Technical Mechanics. He has worked for industry as well as in academia for more than thirty years. At present, he is W3-Professor of Continuum Mechanics and Constitutive Theory at the Technische Universität of Berlin. His work received several awards from SMTA, CNRS, and the Senate of Berlin.

Alfons Noe graduated with a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering in 1989 and with a Ph.D. on interfacial fracture mechanics in 1994 under supervision of Klaus-Peter Herrmann, both at University of Paderborn. He was a Postdoctoral Scholar in Aeronautics at the California Institute of Technology. He worked in Defense and Automotive Industry for 13 years. In 2010, he returned to academia and is currently a W2-Professor ofEngineering Mechanics at South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences, Soest, Germany.

Ferdinand Ferber retired from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Paderborn University, Germany. He is an honorary professor at the Technische Universität of Berlin.
