Funded Projects: ERS Practical Examples
Efficiency in Rail Transport
An interdisciplinary team of Aachen researchers has developed a computer model to optimize waiting times in rail traffic. This should makes it possible to choose optimal operating strategies for train stations and rail networks and to facilitate the planning of new railway systems. The insights are also relevant for other transportation, such as aircraft, trams and cars.
Construction Parts from the Greenhouse: Renewable Raw Materials for Industrial Production
How can renewable raw materials be used in industrial production? The interdisciplinary project TEPHA – TEchnical Product HArvesting, funded by the ERS, is dedicated to answering these exciting questions.
Sensorfisch: Pocket-Sized Species Conservation
Hydro plants can pose a serious danger to different fish species, as it is impossible for many animals to pass through unharmed. The RWTH Aachen interdisciplinary project Sensorfisch, funded by ERS, aims to contribute to a solution to this problem.
