The IKM would like to congratulate Mr Alexander Ricker on passing his doctoral examination on 19.06.2023. The lecture entitled "Mechanical Modeling of Elastomers: Benchmarking, Advancements and Efficient Material Characterization" in which Mr Ricker presented the contents of his scientific work was the first part of the examination. He then faced the questions of the examination committee in an oral examination before the result was announced. On this occasion, the doctoral hat, elaborately designed by her colleagues, was presented to her.
