Welcome

My name is Kenny Erleben.

I am the CEO of the company DARERL ApS (DARERL ApS is a Danish company that develops data solutions and software for testing medical devices). DARERL ApS was founded in Marts 2024. DARERL ApS is a spinout of the Horizon Europe RIA project, Intelligent Robotic Endoscopes (IRE) for Improved Healthcare Services, (IRE), https://ire4health.eu/, that was started in March 2024.

I am a full professor in computer graphics and simulation at the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen, Denmark.

I am really interested in how to build simulators and how to use data-driven approaches together with simulation. Hence, my work ranges from inventing new numerical methods for simulation to use simulation for generating data for machine learning or learning physical models from real-world data. Some topics that I am currently very much interested in are:

• High fidelity contact simulations with complex geometry.
• Differentiable simulation for computer-based design and control of medical devices.
• Automated creation of large-scale finite-element model collections from medical images (populations of virtual human twins).
• Using virtual human twins for in-silico (computerized) clinical testing and trials.

All the above items have one common challenge that needs to be solved, namely that someone has to invent and build a simulator.

One can have a glimpse at the kind of research topics that I really like to work with from the selection of research papers on this publications page. Many of the works on this page have links to movies and supplementary material as well.

Social media

I use these mostly for sharing news about scientific events or research results.

Coding

I really love to code when I get the chance to actually do it. Below you can find a few of my own private projects that I am tinkering with whenever I have the chance.
