RESEARCH PROFILE
Marta Gil Pérez is an Assistant Professor in Sustainable Structural Design at the Unit of Structural Engineering and Design, Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Marta’s research interests primarily lie in the area of structural design and digital technologies with a strong motivation for bio-based materials, circularity, and co-design towards the realization of more sustainable structures.
Structure is more than simply the means to realize a work of architecture, but a fundamental, inspirational quality” Mathew Nowicki.
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
Marta has a versatile background in architecture and engineering. She obtained a Bachelor and Master in Architecture at ETSAM, University Politécnica de Madrid (Spain) and a Master in Structural Engineering at Seoul National University (South Korea). Marta extended her professional experience as a Project Engineer at C.S. Structural Engineering in South Korea participating in the structural design of projects in South Korea and the Middle East. In 2017, she joined ITKE at the University of Stuttgart (Germany) and was part of the structural team in projects such as the BUGA Fibre Pavilion, Maison Fibre, and the LivMatS Pavilion. After obtaining her PhD in 2022 she became the Research Group Leader of the fibre composites team. Her research at ITKE comprised the development of engineering methods to prove the structural integrity and safety of non-standard building systems, such as the additive manufacturing technique of coreless filament-wound (CFW) fibre-polymer composite structures. Her methods and design workflow utilized a multi-disciplinary, digital-physical multi-scale approach combining structural testing and simulation.
