Michael Drass Author

Michael Drass trained as a civil engineer and received his Master’s degree in Structural Engineering from the University of Applied Sciences in Mainz, Germany. He subsequently pursued his Ph.D. studies at the Technical University of Darmstadt’s Institute of Structural Mechanics and Design, where he focused on adhesive joints of all kinds in general glass constructions. This was also the subject of his dissertation on Constitutive Modelling and Failure Prediction of Silicone Adhesives in Façade Design. The author is currently working as a Post-Doc at the Technical University of Darmstadt. His work here is dedicated to identifying areas of application for artificial intelligence (AI) in civil engineering with a special focus on structural glass constructions. This topic is also the focus of the start-up founded by Michael Drass and Michael Kraus, M&M Network-Ing UG, which primarily develops and implements AI applications for companies.
