Topics & Projects
The professorships of the Department of Materials Engineering conduct research on a wide variety of materials. On this page they present a selection of special research projects from the department. Further research projects are presented by the professorships on their websites.
Easy Beech
The project develops sustainable truss systems made of laminated beech wood in order to make efficient use of the growing beech wood supply for timber construction.
Further research projects of the Professorship of Wood Technology
Tungsten-copper composite materials
Tungsten-copper composites are investigated as high-performance materials for heat sinks in plasma-facing components
Further research projects of the Professorship for Plasma Material Interaction
Collaborative Research Center Transregio 277
Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC)
Further research projects of the Chair of Materials and Methods in Digital Construction and Chair of Materials Science and Testing
ELECTRODE
Exploring the Limits of Mass Transport in Electro-Chemical Energy Converters ThRough uncOnstrained Design and Interface Engineering
BrückenCT
The “BrückenCT” project develops and validates a mobile, robot-assisted X-ray CT system for high-resolution, non-destructive condition assessment of bridges, combining simulations and reference measurements using ultrasound and radar with field tests on two bridges to derive reliable recommendations for extending their remaining service life.
Further research projects of the Chair of Non-destructive Testing
