Prof. Dr. Bülent Aydemir

Department of Mechatronics Engineering · Düzce University Faculty of Engineering

I graduated in Mechanical Engineering from Erciyes University in 1994. I completed my MSc at Kocaeli University and my PhD at Eskişehir Osmangazi University in 2003, with a thesis on 17-4PH stainless steel force transducer spring elements. From 1994 to 2000 I was a research assistant at Eskişehir Osmangazi University. From 2000 to 2024 I headed the Force Laboratory of TÜBİTAK National Metrology Institute (UME), working on the calibration of material testing machines, force measurement, mechanical strength testing and hardness measurement; I became an associate professor in 2016 and took part in EURAMET guides and international comparisons. Since 2024 I have been a professor in the Department of Mechatronics Engineering at Düzce University and Director of the Düzce University Scientific and Technological Research Center (DÜBİT).
