Associate Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Lukas Eberhardsteiner has been assigned to the Institute of Transportation Sciences (E230) at the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering as Associate Professor of Structural Transportation Engineering since 1.4.2025.

Lukas Eberhardsteiner comes from Linz in Upper Austria. He completed his degree in Civil Engineering and Infrastructure Management at the TU Wien. After completing his studies, he started as a university assistant at the Institute of Transportation Sciences and received his doctorate there in 2014 with a dissertation on the topic of "Extension of the multi-scale model for predicting the stiffness of asphalt to take bitumen ageing into account in superstructure dimensioning (Erweiterung des Mehrskalenmodells für die Vohersage der Steifigkeit von Asphalt zur Berücksichtigung der Bitumenalterung in der Oberbaudimensionierung, opens an external URL in a new window)". After his dissertation, he completed a one-year research stay abroad at the Department of Structural Engineering at TU Delft. He then continued to work as a postdoc at the aforementioned institute and was able to continue his academic career at TU Wien in 2019 by successfully acquiring a career position on the subject of "Constructive traffic route construction". He was appointed Assistant Professor in 2020 and received his Venia Docendi in the field of "Constructive Road Engineering, opens an external URL in a new window" in 2024. He has now successfully completed his career with the qualification of Associate Professor.

Lukas Eberhardsteiner's scientific home is anchored in the Road Engineering research area (E230-03), where he works on material and structural modeling in road construction and the mechanical behavior of road construction materials as well as the simulation of the structural behavior of road structures. These applied methods are used, for example, for the scientific support of new construction methods and for the targeted dimensioning of asphalt, concrete and paved roads.
