Stefan Holtzhausen studied mechanical engineering at TU Dresden from 2001 to 2007, specializing in lightweight construction and plastics technology. As a Student Assistant, he worked primarily on the acoustic characterization of multilayer composites. As an intern at Schunk Kohlenstoff GmbH, department "Composites", he was jointly responsible for the design, calculation and prototype production of large fan blades made of carbon fiber composites.
Since completing his studies, he has been working as a Research Associate at the chair. His initial work focused on reverse engineering with 3D digitizing and the development of automated evaluation strategies for scan data. He was also responsible for the field of industrial image processing and the development of algorithms for the evaluation of computer tomography data.
He received his doctorate in 2015 on the topic of "Acquisition planning according to the optimization principle using the example of the fringe projection method".
He currently heads the Advanced Geometric Modeling and Analysis working group and focuses on computational design. His main area of research involves the development of innovative algorithms for the synthesis of complex functionally optimized components. He combines geometric modelling with computer-aided optimization methods to develop components that meet both structural and functional requirements. His work contributes to the further development of digital manufacturing technologies and the realization of novel, performance-optimized component geometries.
