Aerodynamics of Aircraft and Spacecraft
Teamleader: apl. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christian Breitsamter
Automotive Aerodynamics
Teamleader: apl. Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Thomas Indinger
Automotive aerodynamics studies the aerodynamic optimization of motor vehicles. Besides con- ventional cars, trucks, racing cars, and recently more and more vehicles with alternative types of propulsion >> More
High-Speed Aerodynamics
Teamleader: apl. Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Christian Stemmer
The high-speed aerodynamics group is mainly concerned with the investigation of the laminar-turbulent breakdown in hypersonic boundary layers. For Mach numbers above 10 as they are common place in re-entry scenarios at high altitides (40-60km), generally >> More
Complex Fluids
Teamleader: PD Dr.-Ing. habil. Xiangyu Hu
Our reseach is focused on computational multi-physics and multi-scale fluid dynamics, which is expanding beyond the traditional realm of computational fluid dynamics. “Multi-physics” suggests that the flows are coupled with multi-phase, chemical reaction, electric/magnetic field, radiation, >> More
NANOSHOCK - Manufacturing Shock Interactions for Innovative Nanoscale Processes
Teamleader: Dr.-Ing. Stefan Adami
The flow of liquids or gases is fundamental to most technical applications and natural phenomena. Among the most intriguing fluid dynamics events are shock waves, discontinuities in the macroscopic fluid state that can lead to extreme temperatures, pressures and concentrations of >> More
NFDI4Ing
Group Leader: apl. Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Christian Stemmer
The Chair of Aerodynamics and Fluid Mechanics is in charge of the Archetyp DORIS within the NFDI4Ing research cluster: High-performance measurement and computation with very large data.
The main goal is to make research data from HPMC findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable . >> More
