Project AIProVE

A joint project exists with ETH Zurich and the pd|z institute via the AIProVE project AIProVE - Adjustable Impedance Elements for Product Validation in Compliant Environments. The DFG and SNF funded project deals with the development of adaptable impedance elements (AIE) for applications in dynamic test rigs. One of the investigated test scenarios is given by the DFG-funded multiaxial hexapod at the TUHH. Realistic test environments are to be generated by AIE for aircraft cabin systems and lightweight structures.
