My name is Piet Schreurs. I live in the Netherlands, where I was born - in 1955 -, raised and educated.
At Eindhoven University of Technology I finished my study
Mechanical Engineering in 1979 and my PhD research in 1983.
From 1984 to 2021 I worked at the same university in the
Department of Mechanical Engineering, ending up as an
Associate Professor.
Links to my educational and research work are
here.
On Github I collected some information and tools, which I made during my professional life and which I still use today.
Now, after being retired, I spend a reasonable bit of time as
a volunteer in the local library, mainly learning people how
to use their computer, smartphone, info-sites on the web, etc.
Learning non-dutch speakers to communicate in the Dutch language
is also part of my voluntary work.
Links to these activities are

The last 50 years I spent a lot of time running, in my village/town, in my country and in Western-Europe. This running is now reduced to jogging, but here is a list of running distances and times from the past.
