This interdisciplinary exploration draws upon the close interrelation between various scientific disciplines, including mathematics, computer science, structural engineering, and architecture.</p> <p><strong>Course Structure:</strong><br><br>The course curriculum is structured to provide a comprehensive understanding of key topics:</p><ul><li>Introduction to computational design: Foundational concepts of structural and fabrication-aware design, setting the stage for integrating practical and theoretical knowledge.</li><li>Computational geometry fundamentals: Covers essential data structures, data exchange formats, and algorithms that form the backbone of effective computational design methods.</li><li>Advanced geometry processing: Introduction to form-finding methods and geometry processing, enhancing students' algorithmic thinking and programming skills for practical applications in design and fabrication.</li></ul><p><strong>Teaching Team:</strong></p><ul><li>Chair of Structural Analysis (Dr.-Ing. M. Hojjat, Dr.-Ing. Ann-Kathrin Goldbach)</li><li>Professorship of Structural Design (Prof. Dr. Pierluigi D’Acunto, M.Sc. Christian Richter, MA Tao Sun, M.Arch.
