Material- and Fabrication-informed Design of Structurally-sound Jammed Architectural Structures
(2019)In the last two decades an increasing number of professionals and researchers have attempted to minimise the harmful impact of the building industry on the environment by taking advantage of ongoing technological progress. Computational design and digital fabrication technology are combined to realise geometrically or functionally complex architectural artefacts. As a result, optimised material use can be achieved. Nevertheless, in the ...Doctoral Thesis -
Data-driven uncertainty quantification for high-dimensional engineering problems
(2019)In the context of complex industrial systems and civil infrastructures, taking into account uncertainties during the design process has received much attention in the last decades. Although there is significant progress in modelling such systems, there are always discrepancies between ideal in-silico designed systems and real-world manufactured ones. Starting from a realistic computational model that reproduces the behaviour of an ...Doctoral Thesis -
Untersuchung des Zusammenhangs zwischen dem physischen und dem sozialen Raum mit Place-Making
(2019)Peri-urbane Landschaften werden in Europa zukünftig die dominante Siedlungsform sein. Diese bringen zunehmend uniforme Siedlungen ohne Identität hervor. Im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes GLOBESCAPE wird der Prozess des PLACE-MAKING untersucht, welcher durch die Umwandlung der Raumgestaltung dem Verlust des Ortsgefühls (SENSE OF PLACE) entgegenwirken kann. In dieser Masterarbeit wird durch die Integration von zwei Studien ein Beitrag zum ...Master Thesis -
Dissipation and Interactions in Quantum Optics
(2019)Quantum optics, the study of light at the level of its building blocks, has been one of the frontiers of science. The arena of quantum optics has been fruitful for investigations of a wide range of interesting questions, from those on the fundamental structures in driven dissipative systems to those on applications of quantum information processing and quantum communication. The first part of this thesis is concerned with one of the ...Doctoral Thesis -
Trust in Digital Health
(2019)This thesis contributes to our understanding of the strategies and features necessary to build and maintain trust in digital health. Myriad experts foresee digital health technologies as a solution to alleviate the demands on contemporary health systems. Yet, these technologies introduce many ethical challenges, one of which is trust. Besides altering the status quo in physician-patient relationships, plenty of evidence suggests that ce ...Doctoral Thesis -

Controller tuning optimization and standardization of a CNC-grinding machine
(2019)Tuning of controller parameters is a highly relevant part of the controller design of a system, because of its high influence on the controllers performance. Manual tuning is a time consuming and difficult process for complex control systems, which results in a high variance of the systems performance, due to the absence of a rigorous definition which parameters to select and how to measure the performance. Thus a standardized, safe ...Master Thesis
