Bereich: Focus Area C
M. Sc. Simon Vilgertshofer
is a research associate and group leader at the Chair of Computational Modeling and Simulation and co-supervises the research especially in WP2, WP 3 and parts of WP 4.
M. Sc. Franziska Wahl
has a background in lightweight structures' design and computational mechanics. Currently, she is a doctoral researcher at the Institute of Structural Analysis at TU Braunschweig with a focus on embedded finite element techniques and applications in multi-physics simulations and structural optimization. Within project C02, Franziska mainly contributes to the high-fidelity optimization approach.
Dr.-Ing. Suneth Warnakulasuriya
He is a Senior Scientist and Head of the Computational Simulation Lab at the Chair of Structural Analysis, Technical University of Munich. With a robust background in computational mechanics, structural mechanics, optimization, and fluid dynamics, his research centers on advancing and implementing cutting-edge continuous optimization techniques within the framework of the C02 project. In addition to his academic leadership, he serves as a technical committee member of the open-source KRATOS Multiphysics finite element framework, which plays a pivotal role in the development efforts of the C02 project.
M. Sc. Hendrik Weigel
is a research associate at iBMB, Division of Concrete Construction of TU Braunschweig. He is responsible for experimental, theoretical and numerical research work.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Stefan Winter
acts as supervisor for the research fellows and gives special input to the WPs related to Technical Regulations. He is responsible for the above allocated WPs and together with PL Pittich for cooperation with allocated projects of TRR 277 and the management of project C07.
