Bio : Short Biography From March 2012 to October 2016, I worked as a research assistant at the Chair of Mechanical Engineering, Ergonomics at the University of Siegen. My research focused on acoustics, optics, and joint stress, alongside teaching and projects related to ergonomic evaluations, including muscle and movement measurements, questionnaires, and digital production design using human models. From October 2016 to December 2020, I served as a development engineer at Kiekert AG in Heiligenhaus, where I specialized in investigating and improving the acoustics of side door locks for passenger cars. Since January 2021, I have been a research assistant at the Chair of Mechanical Engineering, Construction at the University of Wuppertal. My work involves ergonomic simulation, ergonomic measurement systems, teaching, and leading projects in ergonomic product development.

Project Details
Short Biography with Project Highlights I am a research associate specializing in ergonomics and mechanical engineering with extensive experience in industry and academia. Over the years, I have contributed to various projects that integrate ergonomic principles into product development and evaluation.
- 2024: Evaluated the ergonomic quality of high-pressure cleaner gun grips in a comparative study, focusing on muscle strain and movement analysis using motion capture and electromyography. Demonstrated the ergonomic benefits of advanced grip designs for reduced wrist and shoulder strain.
- 2023: Assessed the ergonomic design of cleaning trolleys, analyzing muscle activities and body posture with motion capture and electromyography. Identified improvements in grip systems and modular components for optimized user comfort.
- 2018–2019: Developed a calculation model for latch mechanisms to reduce friction and actuation forces, leading to significant ergonomic improvements in door locking systems. These results were implemented in series production at Kiekert AG.
- 2017–2018: Conducted acoustic analyses of door locking systems, reducing disruptive closing and opening noises through material and design adjustments, with findings integrated into production at Kiekert AG.
- 2013–2016: Created methods for analyzing hand strain, including a digital hand model and a sensor glove. These innovations supported the ergonomic design of products and work tools, providing precise strain measurements and simulations.
