Mechanical Engineer, University of Patras, Greece 2001: Dr Mechanical Engineer, Doctoral thesis in fatigue of composite materials from the Dept. Mechanical Engineering and Aeronautics, University of Patras, Greece CURRENT POSITION Senior Scientist (MER), Composite Construction Laboaratory (CCLab), EPFL PREVIOUS POSITIONS 2006-2012 Research and Teaching Associate, Composite Construction Laboaratory (CCLab), EPFL 2002-2006 Assisstant Professor, Technological Educational Institute (TEI) of Patras, Greece 2001-2003 Post-doctoral Research associate, (Part-time) Dept. Mechanical Engineering and Aeronautics of the University of Patras, Greece. EDUCATION 1990 - 1995 Graduate student, Dept. Mechanical Engineering and Aeronautics, University of Patras, Greece October 1994-January 1995 Dept. Mechanical Engineering, University of Bristol, U.K. (In the frame of Erasmus project for the final year thesis, under the supervision of Prof. R. D. Adams) 1995 - 2000 Research assistant, Dept. Mechanical Engineering and Aeronautics, University of Patras. LANGUAGES English, Greek, French COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES (Member of) Council of the European Society of Composite Materials (ESCM) Council of the European Society of Experimental Mechanics (EuraSEM) The European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS) The European Energy Research Alliance (EERA, JP WIND) The Technical Chamber of Greece (TCG) The Hellenic Association of Mechanical & Electrical Engineers SCIENTIFIC-RESEARCH INTERESTS Experimental methods for the study of the behavior of composite materials under static and fatigue loading Development of analytical methods for the study of the behavior of FRP composite materials under variable amplitude complex stress states Development of fatigue life prediction methodologies for composite materials and structures Design of constructions with composite materials Franz-Josef HaugI studied Physics between 1990 and 1996 at the Universities of Ulm (Germany) and Waikato (New Zealand). While specializing mostly on Theoretical Physics and Quantum Theory during my studies, I turned towards Experimental Physics for a graduate work on gas-phase epitaxy of silicon. After that, I pursued a PhD program at ETH Zürich (Switzerland), studying Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells. As PostDoc, I went to EMPA (Switzerland) to work on plasma processes for hard coatings of TiN and to the Jülich Research Centre in Germany to study light scattering ZnO front contacts for solar cells. In 2005 I joined the Institute of Microengineering (IMT) at the University of Neuchatel to lead a research group on thin film silicon solar cells within the PV-Lab. In 2009 the IMT was integrated into EPFL. My main research interests are optics, charge transport in semiconductors and renewable energy in general. My current work is devoted to passivating contacts for crystalline silicon solar cells, using thin silicon films as contact layers. In 2015 I was appointed Maitre d'Enseignement et Recherche (Senior Lecturer and Scientist) and member of the Faculty of STI. From 2013 to 2015 I was member of the EFPL Teachers Council (CCE) and from 2016 and 2018 I was elected into the Council of the Engineering School (CF-STI). In 2020 I was elected to become a member of CF-STI. My main objective for the legislature is to represent the role of EPFL's intermediate staff and to raise the awareness for concerns of the satellite campuses.

Wolf Hendrik HuwaldDr. Hendrik Huwald is a scientist at the Laboratory of Cryospheric Sciences (CRYOS) and a lecturer at the Environmental Sciences and Engineering Section (SSIE) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). He completed his PhD in 2003 at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich (ETHZ), developing a numerical model for sea ice and studying energy transfer processes in the Arctic. Between 2005 and 2012 he was a post-doctoral fellow and scientist at the Laboratory of Environmental Fluid Mechanics and Hydrology (EFLUM) of EPFL working on Alpine snow-atmosphere interaction, and energy balance-related research mainly in mountain regions. During this time, he designed, led and participated in numerous large field experiments in different environments. In 2013 he joined the newly founded CRYOS laboratory where he conducted research in the domains of snow science, hydrology, boundary layer meteorology and environmental sensing. He has extensive experience with project management both on national and international level.
