Prof. Dr. [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabine_Seidler Sabine Seidler], born on 29 August 1961 in [https://sangerhausen.de/ Sangerhausen], is a German-Austrian materials scientist whose research focuses on [[Polymer Testing|polymer testing]], [[Polymer Diagnostic|polymer diagnostics]] and technical [[Fracture Mechanics|fracture mechanics]].

Sabine Seidler studied polymer materials engineering at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technische_Hochschule_Leuna-Merseburg Technical University of Leuna-Merseburg (THLM)] from 1979 to 1984. In 1989, she earned her doctorate with a thesis on

'''"Fracture mechanical evaluation of the toughness properties of particle-filled and short [[Fibre-reinforced Plastics|fibre-reinforced thermoplastics]]."'''

Until her habilitation, her scientific work at the Institute of Materials Science at [https://www.uni-halle.de/?lang=en Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg] focused on determining quantitative structure–property correlations based on micro- and [[Fracture Mechanical Testing|fracture mechanical methods]] on thermoplastics and polymeric multiphase systems.

After a guest stay at the [https://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/en Ruhr University Bochum], Faculty of Civil Engineering, [https://www.fbi.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/fbi/fakultaet/lehrstuehle-arbeitsgruppen.html.en Institute for Experimental Mechanics]], she was appointed full professor at the Vienna University of Technology for a professorship in ‘Non-metallic Materials’ while still in the habilitation phase.

She defended her habilitation thesis on the topic of

'''"Application of the crack resistance concept to determine structure-related fracture mechanical material parameters under impact loading"'''

at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg in 1997, thereby acquiring the venia legendi in materials engineering.

Her research findings on structure-property correlations in polymeric multiphase systems have resulted in numerous articles in peer-reviewed international journals.

From 2001 to 2007, she was head of the Institute of Materials Science and Technology, in 2007 she was vice-rector of TU Wien, and from 2011 to 2023 she was the first female rector in the history of TU Wien.

In 2008, she became a member of the “[http://www.amk-merseburg.de Akademie Mitteldeutsche Kunststoffinnovationen]” ([http://amk-merseburg.de/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Curriculum-Vitae_aktuell.pdf Curriculum Vitae]) and has been a member of the Presidium since 2019.

With her scientific work, she has made an active contribution to the development of [[Polymer Testing|polymer testing]] as an independent scientific discipline.

In 2018, she was awarded an honorary doctorate by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at TU Dresden (Dr.-Ing. h. c.) and in 2024 she received an honorary doctorate from [https://www.vut.cz/en/ Brno University of Technology].

In 2014, she was awarded the H. F. Mark Medal for her outstanding contributions to Austrian polymer science, in particular her fundamental work in the field of structure-property correlations.

Based on her own work and in collaboration with [[Grellmann, Wolfgang|Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Grellmann]], [https://www.uni-halle.de/?lang=en Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg], [https://www.iw.uni-halle.de/ehemaligeprofessuren/ Chair of Materials Diagnostics/Materials Testing], she has authored numerous textbooks and specialist books in the fields of polymer testing, polymer diagnostics and fracture mechanics.
