Philipp Öffner
Prof. Dr. rer. nat.
I'm a full professor of numerical analysis at TU Clausthal. Before that, I was a postdoc at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, the University of Zurich, and TU Braunschweig.
My research focuses on developing and analyzing numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations, in particularly for hyperbolic conservation and balance laws. I’m especially interested in stability questions, the construction of structure preserving schemes, and convergence properties of high-order methods, which I investigate through analytically and numerical simulations.
Research Interests
- Numerical methods for compressible flows
- Time integration schemes
- Uncertainty Quantification
- Approximation theory
- Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
- Data-driven approaches combining analysis and data
- Scientific machine learning
- Scientific computing
News:
-
In collaboration with others, I published several papers in March and April 2026 focusing on the existence of solutions, uncertainty quantification (UQ), and the convergence of numerical schemes. Preprints can be found on arXiv.
- I will move the main webpage to the group webpage at TU Clausthal in May 2026. The content here will only contain the basic information in the future.
- Several papers have been published during the last months, see publications.
- The group in Clausthal is complete.
