He has studied chemical engineering at the TU Dortmund and will spent the next five months in CERE to write his master’s thesis and participate in the further development and investigations of the electrolyte CPA equation of state. The purpose is to investigate the applicability of existing parameters of the e-CPA for a wide range of applications, selected in such a way so that a meaningful comparison to other state of the art approaches from literature is possible.
In his free time Mark does a lot of sports. Once a week he usually plays football with the Ph.D. students from the thermodynamic apartment in Dortmund. Additionally, he is running (about 10-15 km) and is very interested in climbing/bouldering. On weekends in spring and summer he likes to ride on his motorbike.
Mark will have his office together with another new coworker, Sebastian Elke in building 229, room 216 and Georgios Kontogeorgis and Anders Schlaikjer will be his super visors during his stay here.
