Mars\, Ph.D\, P.E. \nBio: An internationally acclaimed authority in the failure mechanics of rubber and elastomers\, the founder and president of Endurica – Dr. Will Mars – is an engaging teacher and accomplished presenter. The comprehensive testing and simulation tools Endurica has developed under his direction help companies across the world to speed their product development process and compete on durability. He has received several awards for his scientific contributions and innovations including the 2025 University of Toledo MEANES (Mechanical Engineering Alumni Network of Experts and Scholars) Award\, the 2022 Herzlich Medal for outstanding impact and innovation in the tire industry\, the 2020 Tibbetts Award from the United States Small Business Administration in recognition of accomplishments in creating cutting-edge technologies\, the 2017 Rubber Division ACS Arnold Smith Special Service Award\, the 2007 Sparks Thomas award of ACS Rubber Division\, and the 1999 Henry Fuchs award of the SAE Fatigue Design & Evaluation Committee. \nDr. Mars served as the editor of the Rubber Division\, American Chemical Society journal Rubber Chemistry & Technology\, and is also the past editor of Tire Science & Technology with 60+ peer-reviewed publications and four patents. His experiences and contributions span a topic range including material characterization\, product evaluation\, constitutive modeling\, crack nucleation\, fracture mechanics\, and fatigue life prediction methods. He has over 60 peer-reviewed scientific publications and four patents in the area of elastomer durability.
