My name is David Morin and I am an associate professor at the Department of Structural Engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway. I am associated to the research group SIMLab (Structural IMpact Laboratory).

Research:

My research activities are linked to testing and modelling of materials, joints and structures subjected to large deformations and failure under various loading conditions (high and low speeds). I am an active developer in both python and FORTRAN where my codes are usually used in combination with Finite Element Analyses (FEA).

Teaching:

I am involved in two courses at NTNU, TKT4140-Numerical methods and KT8306-Plasticity Theory.

Education:

I earned my PhD in mechanical engineering from the University of Valenciennes and Hainaut-Cambresis (now UPHF) in 2010. My PhD thesis was on the topic of structural adhesives subjected to crash loadings.
