The DLR Institute of Electrified Aero Engines was founded in 2020 at DLR's Cottbus site with funding from the Structural Strengthening Act for Coal Regions. Its research focuses on low-emission, ...

The HAP-alpha flight platform was fitted with electromechanical vibrators to identify its vibration characteristics. The image shows a side view along the wing of the aircraft.

During the Ground Vibration Test, numerous sensors were used to record the dynamic properties of the platform – including acceleration sensors mounted on its electric motors.

The HAP-alpha flight platform was fitted with electromechanical shakers to identify its vibration characteristics.

Haptic force feedback enables the operator of a telerobotic system to control the forces that are applied at the remote site and thus even dexterous tasks with fragile parts can be accomplished. This ...

In the run-up to this year's JEC World's Leading Trade Fair for Composite Materials in Paris, the prototype of a sustainable house wall developed in the BMBF-funded DACCUSS-Pre project was honoured.

The DLR Institute of Future Fuels and the Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology (RCAST) at the University of Tokyo have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in Cologne to formalise ...

openvocs is the first publicly available software platform developed specifically for use in mission control rooms in the space sector. It is now available as an open source project and can be ...

The world's first in-flight measurements of contrails from a hydrogen-powered turbojet engine have been conducted. The measurements provide new insights into the climate impact of contrails produced ...

Which roofs are suitable for solar panel installations? Where are photovoltaic systems already in place? How much output could be achieved with solar panel arrays at specific locations? A map ...

Researchers have tested ten new technologies to detect ice accumulation on aircraft in flight, in wind tunnels and in real-time flight tests. The best results were achieved by combining the detection ...

Since the beginning of 2020, researchers at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) have been working together in the Exploration of Electric Aircraft Concepts and ...
