Bereich: Focus Area B
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Johannes Fottner
Project leader in A03 and B02. He instructs and supports the academic staff regarding bulk conveying and machine design questions.
Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Martin Geier
He substantially contributes to model development and implementation related aspects of WPs 1-2 and will contribute to the analysis of simulation results with special focus on WP 5.
M. Sc. Hauke Heeren
is a doctoral researcher at the Institute for Assembly Technology and Robotics within Leibniz University Hannover. His background in mechatronics and robotics drives his work on mobile robotics. By synergizing elements from computer science, control theory, and mechanical design he enhances robotic autonomy and efficiency to enable print-while-driving
Dr.-Ing. André Hürkamp
is junior research group leader at the IWF. Together with Prof. Raatz, he is responsible for the proposed project and its coordination within the TRR 277. He guides the IWF-staff related to the project and decide about research actions in terms of numerical investigations and model reduction.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ralf Jänicke
is Professor at the Institute of Applied Mechanics (IAM) –Technical University of Braunschweig . In his habilitation the focus is on computational homogenization and reduced order modelling of diffusion processes in fluid-saturated porous media.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Stefan Kollmannsberger
is Professor at Bauhaus-University Weimar and is Head of the Chair of Data Science in Civil Engineering. He was head of the work group ‘Simulation in Applied Mechanics’ at the Chair of Computational Modeling and Simulation and has a fifteen year-long scientific record in that field. In this project, he is responsible for the development of simulation methods for metal based artefacts.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Manfred Krafczyk
is responsible for WPs 3-5 and contributes to HPC and setup related aspects of the corresponding simulations. He advises Dr. Kutscher in conducting the simulations and the analysis of the results. He also takes responsibility for the data exchange with other projects within the TRR.
Dr.-Ing. Konstantin Kutscher
is the lead developer of the VirtualFluids software. In this function he is indispensable for the project as a new doc. res. could not possibly extend the existing framework (>700,000 lines of code) with the new models to be developed and adapted in WP 1-4. He is also experienced in conducting massively parallel runs on THIER-0 systems and analyzing huge data sets with more than 10 degrees of freedom.
