Biography
I was born in 1957 in Umeå, Sweden, and received a Certificate in Mechanical Design in Sweden in 1976. I was awarded an MSc in Mechanical Engineering at Luleå University of Technology (LTU), Sweden, in 1981. A strong leitmotif in my professional interests and ambitions has always been the continuous development of products which mainly consist of mechanical components. Today I have achieved the very rare combination of two separate appointments as a professor in two completely separate research fields, namely Machine Elements and Operation and Maintenance Engineering, specializing in product development for design out maintenance (DOM) and design for maintenance (DFM). In addition to that, I have spent a period of 6 years conducting research in the field of human interactions with related topics. All in all, this amounts to an unusual wealth of interdisciplinary knowledge and experience with a clear focus on mechanical engineering.
