AMC Project leader Archives - Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) TRR277

Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Thomas Auer

is the head of the Chair of Building Technology and Climate Responsive Design at TUM. As such, the core focus in teaching and research is a holistic design approach for buildings in consideration of sustainability and energy-efficiency. He guides scientific personnel within research projects on the application of simulation-software as planning instrument for the numerical calculation of thermal, lighting and flow specific processes. These insights with practical relevance can be made in the fields of thermal comfort, energy consumption and daylight supply. In research, the chair is conducting several projects with various sources of funding from public or private sector, on state, federal and European level.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. André Borrmann

acts as co-lead in project C04. He is responsible for leading and guiding WP2 and WP 3 and parts of WP 4. He is also responsible for coordinating the collaboration with other projects. He leads the doctoral researcher in the design and implementation of the virtual common research environment. He is responsible for the coordination of the projects in the TRR 277 and the coordination with the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ).

PhD M.Sc. Freek Bos

Team Leader for Extrusion-Based Additive Manufacturing of Concrete at the TUM School of Engineering and Design

Dr. rer. nat. Frauke Bunzel

has been working in the field of wood adhesives for many years. She gives guidance and support to the academic staff at WKI regarding the entire adhesive systems including adhesives, particles and pressing parameters.

Prof. Dr. Sc. Pierluigi D’Acunto

is TT-assistant Professor at the Professorship of Structural Design –Technical University of Munich. In his doctoral research the focus is on vector- based 3D graphic statics and design of spatial structures based on the relation between form and forces.

Prof. Dr. sc. ETH Kathrin Dörfler

leads the scientific staff in the conception and execution of the research, and in questions of validation of the proposed methods. She is also responsible for the coordination of the cooperating research projects in the TRR 277. She is the Co-Spokesperson of the TRR 277. Dörfler supports Kloft as contact person for the DFG, in general public relation matters and also in representing the TRR 277 externally. Internally, Dörfler assists Kloft in the coordination between the research projects, as well as in the decisions on the financing of research tasks in the TRR 277.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Klaus Dröder

advises the scientific staff in continuous consideration of the defined research objectives and investigates opportunities to generate novel research projects and publications. He is responsible for the content and organisational coordination of all work on the part of IWF.

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.-Ing. Christoph Gehlen

Dean of TUM School of Engineering and Design, Head of cbm and leads project A02 and A03. He instructs and advises the academic staff regarding additive manufacturing and concrete technological questions. He is responsible for the coordination and quality control of all work of cbm. Untill Oct. 2021 he was the co-spokesperson of the TRR 277. He then became Dean of TUM School of Engineering and Design and handed over the tasks of Co-Speaker to Kathrin Dörfler.

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.
