Successful kick-off of the DFG research project ZoE in Hamburg
The kick-off of the DFG research project ZoE took place on 2nd of November in Hamburg. In cooperation with the Institute of Product Development and Mechanical Engineering Design at the Hamburg University of Technology, we have prepared the investigation of the fatigue behaviour of fibre-reinforced plastics. We look forward to further collaboration and the exciting […]

Termination of the BFS project for virtual load determination in vehicle development
E-Mobility and lightweight design pose new challenges in the development of vehicle chassis, especially in terms of ensuring durability. Therefore, in collaboration with our industry partner MAN Truck & Bus SE in Munich, an approach to design real hardware test rigs in a virtual environment has been developed before physical prototypes are available. This involves […]

Printed sensors for strain measurement in rolling bearing rings
Understanding the operating conditions of rolling bearings is the basis for safe operation and predictive maintenance to save resources and costs. However, in many cases it is difficult to implement the necessary sensors in rolling bearings, e.g. due to the requirement of space neutrality. In collaboration with the FAPS of the FAU and the OHM-CMP […]
