At this point, we report on current topics, dates and other news directly from the division.

Workshops and Seminars

Practical applied research and method development require constant communication with the world of industrial application. This means know-how transfer from the institute to industry as well as feedback from users and calibration of new methods according to their practical relevance.

Of course, this is done in our cooperation projects. But we decided to establish an additional broad and open instrument: Advanced technology courses for engineers in the industry.

We offer the following events at regular intervals:

Conferences

Chargeable Advanced Training Seminars

Technology Webinars free of charge

Fairs, Conferences and Symposia

The experts of our department regularly attend trade fairs, conferences and meetings and are speakers at the various events.

Here you can find the current dates:

 

Kaiserslautern / Conference/ 18.11. – 20.11.2024

MaRDI Annual Meeting 2024

The annual MaRDI conference will take place at the Fraunhofer Center in Kaiserslautern in 2024 and provides a platform for the exchange of ideas and information on current developments within the initiative.

The aim of MaRDI is to make research data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. Registration is possible until November 6th, 2024. 

 

Baden-Baden / Congress / 19.11. – 20.11.2024

SIMVEC 2024

At the VDI Congress »SIMVEC«, our experts will be presenting innovative approaches to driving simulation and vehicle technology in various lectures and at our booth. They will show how virtual environments enable realistic vehicle interactions, how new drive concepts can be evaluated and how NVH investigations in battery-electric vehicles contribute to noise and vibration optimization.
