A very warm WELCOME to FK-FSR!
In order to strengthen cooperation within the DLR institutes and facilities in the fields of space, aeronautics and transport, make optimum use of synergy effects and avoid thematic duplication, the Institute of System Dynamics and Control (SR) was split up on 1 January 2025 and assigned to neighbouring institutes.
Research and the development of methods and tools in the SR fields of modelling, AI and control, as well as optimisation, will continue at the Oberpfaffenhofen site. Existing tasks and projects will be continued, all laboratories and test benches will continue to be operated and existing collaborations will remain unaffected by the reorganisation.
Research in the fields of road and rail vehicles (including mechatronic by-wire high-tech chassis, AI and optimisation-based chassis control, hybrid state estimation, electromobility) will be assigned to the new Vehicle System Dynamics and Control Technology (FSR) department at the Institute of Vehicle Concepts (FK).
We warmly welcome our new colleagues at the Institute of Vehicle Concepts and look forward to many exciting projects!
