Dr.-Ing. Sebastian Esser

Dr.-Ing. Sebastian Esser is a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Computing in Civil and Building Engineering at the Technical University of Munich. His research centers on knowledge representations for the built environment, with a focus on predictive methods and real-time feedback systems for additively manufactured components. This includes improving data models, advancing the FIM system, and integrating digital twin approaches to capture as-built information during and after production.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martin Empelmann

instructed the research engineer at iBMB in the conceptual structure, execution and evaluation of the theoretical, experimental and numerical research work.

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.

Dipl. Ing. Julia Fleckenstein

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”.

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.

M. Sc. Markus Freidhofer

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

M. Sc. Niklas Freund

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.

M. Sc. Felix Gabriel

was a doctoral researcher and Head of research group "Assembly and Production Automation" at the Institute for Machine Tools and Production Technology (IWF) at TU Braunschweig. He supported Prof. Dröder with designing further research topics and coordinated the work at IWF in the scope of A04.

M. Sc. Stefan Gantner

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.

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.
