About
Marie Vandamme is a pioneering researcher in sustainable timber construction, specializing in the intersection of parametric design, structural optimization, and robotic fabrication. Her work focuses on developing design rules for timber log reciprocal floors, where she has made significant contributions by optimizing mass under stiffness constraints to make raw timber construction more competitive with concrete and steel. Though her most-cited paper, "Design rules for timber log reciprocal floors, based on mass optimization under stiffness constraint" (2021), has garnered 2 citations, its impact lies in advancing affordable, eco-friendly building methods. Vandamme’s research leverages parametric design and robotic milling tools to enable fast, precise processing of timber logs, reducing construction costs and promoting sustainable architecture. Her work is notable for bridging traditional building materials with cutting-edge digital fabrication, offering practical solutions for low-carbon construction. As a researcher, she is driving innovation in structural engineering and sustainable design, with potential for far-reaching influence as her methods gain wider adoption in the industry.
