CV

Prof. Dr. Joachim Peinke, born 1956 in Ludwigshafen/Rh (Germany) graduated at the Physics Department of the University of Tübingen with a diploma in Experimental Physics and received his PhD with distinction in 1988 on "Nonlinearities and Chaos in the Transport of Electrons in Semiconductors” at the University of Tübingen, Germany. He became researcher at the University of Tübingen until 1990, at the Centre de Recherches sur les Très Basses Températures of the Centre National de la Recherche Sientifique in Grenoble from 1990 to 1994. In 1992 he habilitated at the University of Tübingen with the title of Experimentelle Untersuchungen zur nichtlinearen Dynamik in Halbleitern. In 1994 he went to the University of Bayreuth (Physics department) where he got in 1994 the venia legendi. From 1993 until 1998 he was Heisenberg fellow of the Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft. In 1998 he became professor in Experimental Physics devoted to Wind Energy at the Department of Physics at the University of Oldenburg.

Research profile

The main research topics have been: nonlinear chaotic dynamics and complex systems like turbulence, econophysics (Pub 1, 2, 3, 4, 5), wind energy (6,7,8,9) and other disordered system like traffic flow, avalanches, earthquakes (10). Besides experimental aspects a central focus of my research lies on modern techniques of time series analysis and the modeling of complex disordered systems with noise. In particular we (together with R. Friedrich Uni Münster) developed a new method (Pub 2, 3, 5) to extract in a parameter free way without presumptions the underlying dynamical model equations. This method enables to differentiate between causal essences (deterministic processes) and random noise-like influences. With this method it is also possible to detect collective modes generated by the interaction of subunits in a complex system, and to work out mechanism leading to heavy tailed statistics and extreme events.

The research has been enabled by many research projects financed by the DFG, VolkswagenStiftung, BMBF, Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt, Ministry of Lower Saxony, Helmholtz Gesellschaft, BMU, EU and several industrial cooperations.
