Dr. Patrick Ole Ohlbrock

 

Ole Ohlbrock is a graduate civil engineer since September 2013. He studied civil engineering with a cross-sectional specialisation in architecture at the Technical University of Munich from 2007 to 2013. Between his bachelor's and master's degree, he worked as an engineer at Schlaich Bergermann und Partner, spending six months in Stuttgart and six months in New York. In 2020, he completed his doctorate with distinction (ETH Medal) at ETH Zurich under the supervision of Prof. Dr Joseph Schwartz.

Until the end of 2022, Ole was a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer at the Chair of Structural Design at the Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. His research focuses on the development of digital tools for the conceptual design phase. His research interests are geometry-based methods for structural design, computer-aided modelling of truss models, natural building materials and form-finding coupled with machine learning. Since 2023 he is employed at the Chair of Structural Design at TUM as a postdoctoral researcher. In parallel, Ole works as a civil engineer at Dr Schwartz Consulting in Zug.
