Merle, Benoit
Prof. Dr. Benoit Merle
Scientific Career
Benoit Merle is an expert in nanomechanical testing. He graduated with distinction from the Ecole Centrale de Lyon in France in 2005. After spending a few years as an engineer with Siemens AG, he joined the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg to pursue a PhD on the mechanical behavior of thin films. He obtained his doctorate degree (Dr.-Ing.) with distinction in 2013 (advisor: Prof. M. Göken) and went on to establish the nanomechanics group which he currently leads. He spent the summer 2018 at Texas A&M university on an extended research stay with Prof. George Pharr. Back in Erlangen, he completed his habilitation (Dr.-Ing. habil.) in the field of materials science in May 2019.
In May 2022, Benoit Merle was appointed professor to the University of Kassel and is now heading the lab for Mechanical Behavior of Materials.

Research Focus
Benoit Merle has a strong research focus on the mechanical characterization of materials in small dimensions by nanoindentation, micromechanical testing and in-situ testing in the electron and atomic force microscopes. He is an expert at developing novel testing methods and applying them to various material systems. He also has a strong background in the fabrication and characterization of thin films and coatings. His current projects are mostly connected to small-scale fatigue, nanotribology and nanoindentation at high strain rates.
