SAFER²
The SAFER² project focuses on the integration of sensor technology and artificial intelligence to improve performance and reliability in various areas and includes five demonstrators.
TeTeAnt-H2
The joint project TeTeAnt-H2 is concerned with achieving the simulation and measurement capability for hydrogen propulsion systems for CO2-free aviation. For this purpose, extensive measurements of a turbine rig are carried out, which are completed by flow-structure coupled simulations.
VOLARE²
In the VOLARE² project, a lightweight chassis component for a Volocopter flying taxi is designed, manufactured and tested using 3D CFRP weaving technology.
D-LIGHT
In the D-Light (Digital Climate Neutral Light Aircraft) project, methods for the design and evaluation of small aircraft are being developed, relevant technology modules are being examined in the course of the project and these are being transferred into a digital mock-up (DMU). This will serve as a differentiated basis for a climate-neutral small aircraft with hydrogen propulsion.
MFFD
Thermoplastic composites, thermoplastic advanced fibre placement (T-AFP), in-situ consolidation (ISC), continuous ultrasonic welding (cUS), resistance welding (RW), MFFD Project.
ADAPT
Within the framework of the ADAPT project, future propulsion technologies are to be evaluated. The focus here is particularly on hydrogen combustion.
NEUTRON
The research project NEUTRON is investigating technologies, designs and materials that will enable the future use of hybrid-electric propulsion systems in helicopters.
DigECAT
As part of the project, methods and standards are being developed for the use and development of digital twins at DLR.
3DCeraTurb
Since 2021, six DLR institutes and facilities have been working on the 3DCeraTurb project to realize novel turbine blades based on fiber-reinforced ceramics (CMC) and metallic 3D printing.
Factory of the Future
The Factory of the Future Project is a DLR-wide project, in which a total of ten institutes are involved.
TeamBots
A Tool-Based Methodology for Developing Software for Dynamic Robot Teams.
Urban Rescue
The Urban Rescue Project deals with different rotorcraft configurations (helicopters and eVTOLs) that are necessary for urban rescue scenarios.
IRAS
The lntegrated Digital Research Platform Project for Mordable Satellites (IRAS) is an integrated development platform for low-cost satellites.
HIT
Efficient, flexible heating technology by induction.
FraME
This project is for the realization of a radically lightweight aircraft fuselage to achieve maximum flight range with minimum energy consumption.
ReBAR
The ReBAR project directly addresses current challenges in the digital transformation of applied research.
