Binru Yang
Binru Yang studied Lightweight Engineering and Polymer Technology at TU Dresden. Her previous diploma thesis was about adapting structure to certain conditions via finite element analysis.
Before and after that in other projects, she practiced with composite manufacturing methods and mechanism design for concrete movements.
Binru is a PhD Candidate in the Project Material Form Function. In her thesis she is studying tessellated structures in Biology and collaborate with other disciplines, like Architecture and Material Science.
