معرفی
Amelie Schreck is a Researcher and Doctoral Student at the Institute of Social Sciences, University of Stuttgart, affiliated with the Chair of Sociology of Technology and Environment since January 2023. Her work bridges sociological analysis with technological systems in construction environments.
Education
- MA in Empirical Political and Social Research, University of Stuttgart (2017-2020)
- BA in Social Sciences, University of Stuttgart (2013-2017)
Research Interests
Her primary focus spans Sociology of Technology and Environmental Sociology, with specialized investigation into Human-Robot Interaction dynamics within construction automation. She examines social implications of trustworthy cyber-physical systems, particularly tower crane operations, where human-robot co-agency and trust mechanisms determine system efficacy. Current work analyzes safety protocols and socio-technical integration in automated construction platforms.
Publications Trend
Her seminal 2025 publication on tower crane automation exemplifies her interdisciplinary approach, merging Construction Engineering with sociological frameworks. This work establishes foundational analysis for human factors in robotic construction systems, highlighting trust calibration as critical for adoption. Research trajectories indicate growing emphasis on ethical automation frameworks within built environments.
Scientific Awards
No scientific awards were documented in the source materials.
Research Projects
Actively contributes to two major initiatives: Associated Project 30 "Towards Human-Robot Co-Agency" under the IRIS3D forum, which develops reflective methodologies for intelligent systems; and Research Project 8-2 "Cyber-Physical Construction Platform" within the IntCDC Cluster of Excellence, focusing on computational design integration. These projects position her at the forefront of sociotechnical construction innovation.
Laboratory Affiliations
Embedded within the University of Stuttgart's IntCDC infrastructure, she operates through the Chair of Sociology of Technology and Environment, collaborating with engineering teams on human-centered automation testing. Her workspace integrates sociological field observation with technical prototyping in construction robotics environments.
