New DFG research group in photonics
The German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding a new research group in photonics: How cracks are formed Lasers are a widely used tool in manufacturing technology that enables contactless and highly-automated joining of workpieces. One of the greatest difficulties in this process is that solidification cracks can occur in the weld seam, which is the […]

New Collaborative Research Centre: Catalysis at Liquid Interfaces
Technical catalysts with new properties With ‘CLINT’ (Catalysis at Liquid Interfaces), FAU has received approval for another Collaborative Research Centre. The speaker is Prof. Dr. Peter Wasserscheid, Chair of Chemical Reaction Engineering. The CRC is pursuing a completely new approach in chemical reaction engineering as it is using the highly-dynamic anisotropic environment of gaseous-liquid and […]Technical catalysts with new properties With ‘CLINT’ (Catalysis at Liquid Interfaces), FAU has received approval for another Collaborative Research Centre.

The language of whales
DFG funding a FAU research project analysing killer whale sounds How do killer whales communicate? A team of researchers at FAU set out to find answers. In order to find out how whales communicate, the researchers used deep learning to analyse the audio recordings and then compared these with the animals’ behaviour. The project has […]

Causes and consequences of manufacturing deviations
DFG provides research group at FAU funding for a further three years What causes manufacturing deviations, and how do they affect the quality of technical products? Since 2016, the research group FOR2271 ‘Process-oriented tolerance management with virtual assurance methods’ has been investigating these issues at FAU. The German Research Foundation (DFG) has now decided to […]
