About the Author

Prof. Dr.-Ing.habil. Dr.h.c.mult. Holm Altenbach is a member of the International Association of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, and the International Research Center on Mathematics and Mechanics of Complex Systems (M&MoCS), Italy. He has held positions at the Otto-von-Guericke-Universit�t, Magdeburg and Martin-Luther-Universit�t Halle-Wittenberg, both in Germany. He graduated from Leningrad Polytechnic Institute in 1985 (diploma in Dynamics and Strength of Machines), and was awarded his PhD degree in 1983and his Doctor of Technical Sciences degree in 1987 at the same Institute.

He is currently a Full Professor of Engineering Mechanics at the Otto-von-Guericke-Universit�t Magdeburg, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Institute of Mechanics (since 2011), where he has been acting director since 2015.

His areas of scientific interest include

• General theory of elastic and inelastic plates and shells,

• Creep and damage mechanics,

• Strength theories, and

• Nano- and micromechanics.

He is author/co-author/editor of 80 books, 580 scientific papers (310 of which were peer-reviewed) and 550 scientific lectures. He was the Managing Editor (2004 to 2014) and has been Editor-in-Chief (since 2006) of the Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (ZAMM) – the oldest journal in mechanics in Germany (founded by Richard von Mises in 1921). He is the Advisory Editor of the journal Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics (Springer), Associate Editor of the journal Mechanics of Composites (Riga) and Co-Editor of the Springer Series “Advanced Structured Materials”.

His numerous awards include: the 1992 Krupp-Award (Alexander von Humboldt-Foundation), 2000 Best paper of the year (Journal of Strain Analysis for Engineering Design), 2003 Gold Medal of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Politechnika Lubelska, Poland, 2004 Semko-Medal of the National Technical University Kharkov, Ukraine, 2007 Doctor honoris causa, National Technical University Kharkov, Ukraine; 2011 Fellow of the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science, 2014 Doctor honoris causa, University Constanta, Romania, 2016 Doctor honoris causa, Vekua-Institute, Tbilisi, Georgia, and 2018 Alexander von Humboldt Award (Poland). In 2019 he was elected as Foreign Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and in 2021 of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
