Associates Overview
Guest Researchers
The AMC invites outstanding researchers from various disciplines, especially from abroad, as guests for longer and shorter stays. They are usually in close exchange with individual subprojects and support the project staff with their expertise. In lecture formats, they present their own research and discuss it together with the staff. At the end of each stay, the results obtained are published in joint publications. Proposals and invitations for guest researchers can be submitted to the AMC at any time.
Associated industry partners
Associated industry partners support the AMC in order to accelerate the transfer into application. In this way, the bridge between pure basic research and industry is to be further expanded. Along associated industry partners the technological value chain is bundled and a high relevance in practice is generated. Proposals for the association of industrial partners can be formulated by any AMC scientist to the AMC Executive Director. The speakers finally decide on an association.
Associated Scientists
Associated scientists and research groups whose scientific profile is closely related to the AMC and its projects. Associates are invited to participate in all AMC events and are supported by the AMC in the realization of their own projects. Proposals and invitations can be formulated by any AMC scientist to the AMC Executive Director. The spokespersons finally decide on an association.
Alumni
The circle of alumni includes all former employees, former guest scientists and former associated members of the AMC. Even after the official departure, the alumni continue to work together on the mutual use of the experience potential and on the development of a network. Likewise, the AMC should receive new impulses from its alumni.

Professorship of Structural Design

was a doctoral researcher and Head of research group “Assembly and Production Automation” at the Institute for Machine Tools and Production Technology (IWF) at TU Braunschweig. He supported Prof. Dröder with designing further research topics and coordinated the work at IWF in the scope of A04.
Institute for Machine Tools and Production Technology

Torben Gädt is professor at the Chemistry Department at TU Munich. He holds the chair for the Chemistry of Construction Materials. The research of his group is focused on admixture driven concrete design with a special focus on the rheology and hydration kinetics of inorganic binder phases. He will support the work of the TRR 277 as an expert in rheology-control of mineral construction materials with admixtures.
Lehrstuhl für Bauchemie

is associated scientist, prof. of the Chair of Material Handling at OvGU, dir. of the Institute of Logistics and Material Handling Systems and head of a bulk solids analysis laboratory for DEM material properties. He provides the group with exp. determined DEM material properties for the calibration of DEM simulations and advises the group on the development of cohesive DEM models.
Institut für Logistik und Materialflusstechnik (ILM)
