RESEARCH INTERESTSBastian’s research focuses on Composite Additive Manufacturing. The Extrusion Deposition Additive Manufacturing (EDAM) method is utilized to print high temperature tooling and molds using carbon fiber reinforced high temperature thermoplastics like Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). Bastian’s research topic is the development of simulation tools to predict the process induced warpage and internal stresses of these printed tools. Here, the focus is on modeling the solidification behavior of the deposited material, including the heat transfer problem, crystallization kinetics of the polymer and the material transition from a molten, viscous fluid to a viscoelastic solid.
