Research Overview

Sensors and Measurement Technology
- Development of sensors and measuring devices
  - for various non-electric measurands: e.g., viscosity of fluids
  - for sparkling wine production: yeast quality, fermentation parameters
- Laser measuring techniques for medical applications
- Real-time data acquisition and control systems
  - for imaging and control of single atoms in a cavity

Ultrasonics
- Online monitoring of tribological contacts by acoustic emission
- Industrial measuring techniques: gas flow, exhaust mass flow
- Medical applications: blood monitoring
- Filtration: particle-fluid separation, emulsion splitting (oil-water, …)

Analyses and Mathematical Simulations
- Rheological investigations: flow characteristics of crude oil
- Damage of rolling bearings due to electric current passage
- Cable oscillations of chair lifts and cable cars
- Modelling and analysis of piezoelectric multi-layer resonators
