معرفی
Tzu-Ying Chen is a doctoral researcher at the Institute of Building Structures and Structural Design (ITKE) within the University of Stuttgart, affiliated with the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC. Her work bridges computational design with material innovation in architectural engineering.
- Education: Master of Science (M.Sc.)
Research Interests: Focus on advanced fiber composite systems, hybrid FRP-timber elements, and deployable structures using natural materials like bamboo. Core themes include:
- Computational optimization of structural geometries
- Integration of traditional craft with digital modeling
- Material-specific structural performance enhancement
- Multi-layered system deployment mechanics
Publication Trends: Recent work explores bending-active principles for lightweight structures, with emphasis on woven bamboo systems (BamX Pavilion) and resource-efficient timber joints. Research demonstrates synergy between physics-based simulations and equilibrium-driven design.
Projects: Key contributions to IntCDC Research Project 11-1 (long-span fiber composites) and 11-2 (hybrid timber materials), plus demonstrator-scale realizations like the ITECH Campus Lab and BamX Pavilion.
