Function of the AMC: Staff (Postdoc and Doc. Researcher)
M. Sc. Janika Fischer
M.Sc. Janika Fischer is a doctoral researcher at the Chair of Computing in Civil and Building Engineering at the Technical University of Munich. Her research focuses on cyber-physical systems for Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC), with an emphasis on sensor integration, real-time monitoring, and machine learning for adaptive process control. This includes developing approaches for real-time defect detection and enabling manufacturing systems to adapt dynamically to changing process conditions during printing.
Dr. Shanmugaraj Senthilnathan
Dr. Shanmugaraj Senthilnathan is a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Materials and Methods in Digital Construction (M²DC) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). His research focuses on the digital characterisation of fresh concrete properties using computer vision and multimodal sensing techniques. Within the AMC project, he is responsible for developing automated quality monitoring and closed-loop feedback systems for shotcrete 3D printing to improve geometric fidelity and process reliability. He further contributes to data analysis, scientific publications, and the advancement of digital construction methodologies.
