Head of institute Björn Nagel is interviewed in this article about the science behind new windows and digital screens as alternatives in new aerospace designs.
The Centre for Applied Aeronautical Research (ZAL) in Hamburg-Finkenwerder is now offering its researchers 30 percent more space.
Hamburg researchers consider three types of aircraft to be promising. Details on passenger numbers, folding wings, propulsion and profitability.
Scientists are researching new sustainable solutions for air travel! Consequence: flying could become longer and more turbulent
The aviation industry wants to become climate-neutral by the middle of the century. To achieve this, paraffin must be replaced. Hydrogen is not the only option.
How low-emission can commercial aircraft really be in the future? For four years, 20 research institutes of the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) have been working together in the EXACT project (Exploration of Electric Aircraft Concepts and Technologies) on designs for aircraft configurations of the future.
The German Aerospace Centre (DLR) has made progress in the development of low-emission commercial aircraft as part of the "Exact" project.
The climate impact of air traffic can be significantly reduced while maintaining economic competitiveness. For four years, twenty research institutes of the German Aerospace Centre have been working together in the EXACT project - Exploration of Electric Aircraft Concepts and Technologies - on the design of low-emission commercial aircraft.
The DLR is presenting three designs for the short and medium-haul aircraft of tomorrow. The aircraft are designed to protect the climate and be economical at the same time.
The DLR's ALICIA project is "gamechanging". As a result of this project we are able to simulate future aviation and its life cycle in a holistic way. This will allow us to support policy making and help the industry make the best strategic decisions.
To eliminate global aviation’s sizable carbon footprint, researchers are working on a range of alternatives to fossil jet fuel. Recent test flights powered only by hydrogen or biofuels have been successful, but steep challenges remain before aviation can become carbon-free.
The DLR has been voted Top 1 employer in the field of Coaching, Research and Technology with Stern magazin's ranking of the best employers in Germany, Top 10 in the overall category. The Institute of System Architectures in Aeronautics has been the main interview partner for the article.
