Topics for Master and PhD Theses

Presently we actively search for students (Master Thesis / PhD Thesis) interested in the below topics but we are also open to your proposals. Please come and talk to us for more information.

Current research fields at LSU, Lighweight Structures Unit, include ...
- Reciprocal Frame Stuctures - Want to collaborate with our PhD researchers and explore together new timber only options?
- BioShell Timber – Designing Hybrid Structures from Reclaimed Timber and Pistachio Shells - an exploration together with architects and biologists.
- Eulerpath-based Structures - If have ever drawn the "house of Nicolaus" with only one continuous line then you already know the basics...
- Steward Gough inspired Architecture - Do you like kinetic and kinematic architecture?
- Bending-active structures and spaces // - Torsion-active structures and spaces  - Fascinated by material behavior and how it shapes objects and spaces?
- Wasteless bending-active structures from single planar sheets
- Reclaimed timber in Architecture  - Want to build on the many results that we explored over the past years?
- Twist in architecture and structures - Want to dive into shapes, processes, objects, spaces that twist, coil, torque...? Want to contribute to a field that is not yet well explored ?
- Tensegrity as Architecture
- Non-sequential assemblies

- AI / Maschine Learning in Architecture and Structures (supervised Dr. Morteza Khorsandnikoo)

If interested in AI / Maschine Learning in Architecture and Structures please contact Dr. Morteza Khorsandnikoo for discussing proposals. Morteza is a pioneer and an expert in these topics for years.
