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 here.

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.
