Research fields of the institut
High Performance Lightweight Constructions for Aviation and Traffic
The main topic for aviation and traffic high performance lightweight constructions are affected by co-operation on interdisciplinary research with other institutes of the DLR (RK, WF, AE and FK) as well as companies of aeronautic and space industry and automobile suppliers in Baden- Württemberg, Germany and Europe.

CMC Technology and Structures
General aim of the works is the development of thermally and mechanically highly loaded, lightweight CMC (Ceramic matrix Composites) structures for various application fields. Thereby, the significant increase of performance and efficiency of technical systems or individual components, as well as the associated preservation of resources and reduction of environmental pollution are always in the focus.

High temperature lightweight structures for space applications
The system oriented development work in the department of Space System Integration concentrates on the two groups thermal protection systems and hot primary structures of re-entry vehicles, as well as on thrust chamber technology for effusion cooled, cryogenic rocket engines in a new hybrid construction using polymere and ceramic composite materials. Both domains are important key technologies for the development of future space transportation systems.

Computer aided non-destructive evaluation methods
There are numerous measurement techniques that are used for non-destructive component inspection and viewing the resulting data under aspects like image clearness, resolution, defect sensibility and selectivity, there are big differences. In any case the selection of the right evaluation method and the combination of several measurement techniques are decisive for high expressiveness and efficiency of such kind of investigation.
