Infrastructure
In a network consisting of top-class research institutions and institutes, the Teaching and Research Area Mechatronics in Mobile Propulsion is able to use their extensive infrastructure. Through integration into the Chair of Thermodynamics of Mobile Energy Conversion Systems and close proximity to the Center for Mobile Propulsion we are able to set our focus on the research topics about mobile powertrains.
The Teaching and Research Area Mechatronics in Mobile Propulsion is structurally associated with the Chair of Thermodynamics of Mobile Energy Conversion Systems (TME) of the RWTH Aachen University directed by Professor Stefan Pischinger. Through a close integration of teaching and research activities of the TME and the possibility to use the institute’s own infrastructure, there are optimal conditions for researching innovative mechatronic systems and components for combustion engines. more...
The RWTH Aachen University created a unique research center with the Center for Mobile Propulsion (CMP). The test lab is an ideal fit for the research of electrified power trains given its interdisciplinary fields. Within the scope of a Teaching and Research Area for Mechatronics in Mobile Propulsion, a wide range of various testing facilities can be used. Hereby the single actuator as well as the power train of the interconnected vehicle of the chain of research projects can be covered.
