Overview AMC Researchers
is a doctoral researcher at the TT Professorship for Digital Fabrication within TUM. With background in structural design and engineering, he will develop strategies for using mobile robotic systems performing extrusion-based AM on construction sites. Fundamentally, this work is interdisciplinary, and he therefore strives for a high degree of collaboration within, but not limited to, the TRR277.
Sebastian Dietrich began his career with an apprenticeship as a formwork carpenter (2002-2005), later attending craftsman school and working in construction and architectural firms until 2010. He then studied International Civil Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences in Mainz and completed a Masters in Archineering at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, gaining experience in architecture and structural design. From 2017 to 2022, he worked at Bollinger+Grohmann as a structural engineer, focusing on projects involving existing structures and parametric design. Since 2021, he has been a research assistant at the Chair of Structural Design, researching topological interlocking structures, especially in the context of 3D concrete printing.
is a researcher at Institute of Building Materials, Concrete Construction and Fire Safety and works for the project A01.
is a doctoral researcher for the duration of the research project. He is leading the A04 project and organising the development of new concepts and strategies for the integration of reinforcement in SC3DP elements. Furthermore he is investigating the SC3DP process, its limitations and the spatial effect for the application in architecture and design within the work group of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Harald Kloft. Moreover, he will frequently publish the results achieved within the community.
has a background in architecture. Currently, he is a research associate at the Institute of Structural Design (ITE) at TU Braunschweig. His work on Injection 3D Concrete Printing (I3DCP) focuses on investigating strategies for design and fabrication as well as architectural applications. In collaboration with material researchers from TU Berlin, he conducts experiments on material and fabrication parameters, path planning and robot end-effector designs.
is a structural engineer and doctoral researcher at the TUB Institute for Structural Design (ITE). He is responsible for Project A10 where he is researching on Sprayed Earth Additive Manufacturing (SEAM). This includes general investigations on earthen constructions as well as development of the SEAM process and the optimization of material-process interactions. Within the project, he will carry out experimental studies and systematically evaluate the data in order to determine the key parameters of the SEAM process. In addition, he will design and investigate suitable applications in the context of construction in collaboration with other sub-projects.
is a doctoral researcher at the IWF. He will be developing finite element models to be used in additive manufacturing. He will lead the implementation of mathematical approaches for model order reduction and work on system sensorization. He will frequently publish the results achieved within the community.
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.
is a doctoral researcher at the TT Professorship for Digital Fabrication at TUM with background in architecture. In her research, she explores site-specific digital design tools for robotically fabricated real-size mono-component building envelopes. As part of her association with the AMC, she is part of the interdisciplinary teaching team for the project “From Additive Manufacturing to Architecture” in 2022 and contributes as Design Lead for the collaborative demonstrator “Breuer x AM”.
Markus Freidhofer is a research associate in the workgroup of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Michael F. Zäh. His research focuses on the combined process of stud welding and wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) for the production of structural reinforcements. This includes the simulation of the combined process, as well as process control and process monitoring for quality-assured manufacturing
is a doctoral researcher for the duration of the research project. He will lead and organise the material development and testing program as well as the data evaluation and material modelling work within WG Lowke. Moreover, he will frequently publish the results achieved within the community.
investigates fibre reinforcement strategies as doctoral researcher. In collaboration with project partners he develops techniques for processing fibres to obtain suitable reinforcement structures for different AM methods. Beyond conception his work scope ranges from deriving representative part designs to physical testing including prototyping of toolings.
is a doctoral researcher at the Technical University of Munich in the group of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dirk Lowke. Her research focuses on advancing the SCA process, particularly regarding material–process interactions.
Dr.-Ing. Ann-Kathrin Goldbach is a researcher and educator in structural engineering. She is Deputy Director at the Chair of Structural Analysis at TUM. Her research focuses on parametric design, CAD-integrated analysis, isogeometric B-Rep analysis and lightweight and membrane structures.
