This book covers a wide range of topics including structural optimization, composite structures, structural health monitoring, material modeling, and design for additive manufacturing. It places particular emphasis on numerical and topology optimization across sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and other industries. Every year, the Technical University of Munich, the Universität der Bundeswehr München, and the University of Applied Sciences in Munich invite researchers and practitioners to join the Munich Symposium on Lightweight Design. Experts from industry and academia discuss design tools, applications, and new developments. The talks are summarized in short articles and presented in this volume.

Felix Endressis a research associate at the Laboratory for Product Development and Lightweight Design at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). He investigates product development approaches for metal additive manufacturing, with a special focus on optimization and validation of aerospace structures. Previously, he conducted research in the field of Engineering Design at the University of Cambridge and Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. He holds master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Management.

Jasper Rieser’sresearch is about topology optimization methods with a particular focus on the design for additive manufacturing. Currently, he is a research associate at the Laboratory for Product Development and Lightweight Design at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) from which he also obtained his bachelor's and master’s degree in mechanical engineering.

Klemens Rother is Professor at the Institute of Material- and Building Research (IMB) at Munich University of Applied Sciences (MUAS). Before that he worked for over 20 years in responsible positions in industry with focus on structural integrity, CAE simulation and software development for product design and qualification. His focus in research and teaching is on efficient methods of CAE for conceptual and lightweight design, structural integrity and fatigue analysis of structures. He graduated in mechanical engineering at MUAS, studied Mechanics and Material Science at Michigan State University and got his Dr.-Ing. from Dortmund University.

Philipp Höferis a full professor at the Institute of Lightweight Engineering within the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Universität der Bundeswehr München. After obtaining his Ph.D. in the field of material modelling and continuum mechanics, he has gained extensive experience in the development of aircraft structures at Airbus over many years. His research interests include the conceptual, functional, and structural design of lightweight structures and the investigation of their static and dynamic characteristics by analysis and test.

Tobias Dickhutis a full professor of Composite Materials and Technical Mechanics at the Institute of Aeronautical Engineering within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Universität der Bundeswehr München. After obtaining his Ph.D. in the field of lightweight construction and structures with fibre-reinforced plastics, he has gained extensive experience in the development of space structures at MT Aerospace over many years. His research interests include the scientific engineering research and design with composites, in particular the issues of lightweight (hybrid) force transmission into highly stressed structural components made of composite materials and the development of tank structures for cryogenic media.

Markus Zimmermann’sresearch is about the design and optimization of complex mechanical systems, such as automobiles or robots. Before he became a professor at TUM, he spent 12 years at BMW designing vehicles for crash and vehicle dynamics. His academic training is in mechanical engineering with degrees from the Technical University of Berlin (Diplom), the University of Michigan (M.S.E.) and MIT (Ph.D.).
