Peter Christensen

Associate Professor

Presentation

I teach full-time in a number of basic and advanced courses on mechanics and machine elements, as well as structural optimization.

I am examiner in the following courses given in English:

  • Multibody dynamics and robotics (TMMS30)
  • Road vehicle dynamics (TMME11)


In addition, I am one of the two lecturers in Structural optimization (TMMS20).

Academic Degree

  • MSc in applied physics and electrical engineering, Linköpings universitet, 1994
  • PhD in engineering mechanics, Linköpings universitetet, 2000

Division of Solid Mechanics (SOLMEK)

Mechanics is one of the fundamentals of engineering science. It deals with motion and equilibrium of bodies. Solid mechanics considers all aspects of the behavior of deformable bodies under loads.
