Stefan Hartl studied mechanical engineering at the Vienna University of Technology. At the Institute of Mechanics and Mechatronics he researched highly efficient, economically and ecologically sustainable flywheel storage systems.

His dissertation with a focus on simulation and material parameter identification was also written in this field.   He gained industrial, technical, and system-technical experience at a well-known manufacturer of microprocessor-controlled high-tech prosthetics and orthotics.

In CCORE he will be responsible for the design and layout of the overall system as well as for the industrialisation, commissioning, and testing of the individual components and assemblies.

Marek Lanc defended his PhD thesis aimed to gas transport in modern membrane materials at the Department of Physical Chemistry, University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague. His experience is mainly in dense membrane transport phenomena, membrane characterization and preparation.
In our team, he will be responsible for the membrane development, evaluation of overall solutions and expert advice to the project management.

Dipl.-Ing. Andreas Hummel studied medical technology at the FH Oberösterreich in Linz. He specialized in electronics, biomechanics and applied programming. During his training, Andreas Hummel gained experience in the design of medical devices. His tasks include in particular the execution of tests and measures for quality assurance as well as the development of new solutions for the implementation of projects.

Certified Engineer
Martin Elenkov completed the interdisciplinary course of study in biomedical engineering at TU Vienna.

During his doctoral studies he was involved in the development of a liquid lung.

In our project, Martin Elenkov is responsible for developing estimation and control algorithms of CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> regulation in the blood and for designing test systems with sensors.

Additionally, he is responsible for programming microregulators and development of GUI applications in Lab View and Python.
